Extension built over public sewer - Implications?
Comments

Just found this on the Severn Trent website, seems to imply they'd just agree to it in most cases. So why wont the vendor ask? Or is retrospective application different?0

I don't know what counts as private or what counts as public - it seems to take waste from at least next door - you never hear it unless you're in downstairs toilet which goes straight into it. Building inspector has no problem as they have approved connection to this toilet and also new manhole cover (2008) which is now in kitchen.
I have read elsewhere that Severn Trent seem to worry more about these matters than some water authorities.If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0 -
Just an update in case someone else finds this thread.
In Autumn 2011 the local sewage authority will be taking over ownership of current private shared sewer branches.
Google for more information.0
