It’s important to understand which part of the sewer system is a
customer’s responsibility and which part is SacSewer’s
responsibility.
SacSewer owns, operates, and maintains a network of 4,500 miles
of main line and lower lateral pipes within a 270 square-mile
area. However, there are certain sections of the sewer pipes that
our customers are responsible for maintaining. To learn more
about which sections we maintain – and which are the
responsibility of our customers – a detailed sewer
maintenance diagram is provided here for your
reference.
Sewer Easements: If you have a sewer easement on
your property, learn about
easement access rights and responsibilities.
Please note: SacSewer is not part of any private
insurance program and does not endorse any private sewer
insurance program. Check out our “When You
Receive Notice of Private Sewer Insurance” fact sheet for
