Newton systems & permits
Newton treats water and sewer service lines differently. For sewer: "The contractor hired by the property owner is responsible to excavate the trench, install the new sewer service, and to backfill and restore the trench." For water, the city itself lays the pipe — the Utilities Division cost estimate covers "the cost of labor and materials for the Utilities Division to lay the new copper water service, and this includes tapping the water main and laying the pipe into the foundation to connect to the water meter" — while the owner's private contractor, paid by the owner, excavates and restores the trench.
Newton requires that a sewer service renewal permit application "be submitted by a bonded and insured utility contractor", and water service work requires the utility contractor to obtain an Engineering Permit and have the work inspected and signed off by an assigned Engineering Division construction inspector.
Newton allows a single consolidated permit when one contractor does both jobs: "If this is the case, then the sewer permit can be consolidated on the same permit application as the water service. If there are two separate contractors, then two separate permit applications are required."
MWRA publishes Newton's service as "Water and Sewer", making Newton a full MWRA community for both, and Newton's own DPW confirms the sewer destination: "The sewer system transports wastewater out of the city and into Massachusetts Water Resource Authority (MWRA) treatment plants."
