and pay the application fee of $110. The Borough requires a dye
test and a video camera inspection of the property's sanitary
sewer lateral to be completed by a plumber registered and
licensed by the Allegheny County Health Department.
Application Process
- Contact Todd Carter at 412-921-8029
to
request a "Dye/Lateral Test & Inspection Report".
After the required information is obtained, the

the email address provided or may be picked up in the
Administrative Office, located at 10 West Manilla
Avenue. This form must be completed by a plumber
registered and licensed by the Allegheny County Health
Department.
- Once the plumber, hired by the applicant, completes the
appropriate section of the "Dye/Lateral Test Inspection
& Report" confirming that the property has been tested
and certifying the results, this completed form will need to
be emailed to Todd
Carter or dropped off at the Administrative Office;
and
- Once payment of $110 is received; and
- If there are no illegal stormwater, groundwater, or
surface water connections or infiltration on the property,
the Building Code Official will issue the "Evidence of
Compliance" letter within 48 hours. If
the dye/lateral test reveals ordinance violations, the

the property.
- Lien letters, tax
certifications, and occupancy permits will not be released
until the dye/lateral test is complete.
