Applying for Sewer Service
New customers and customers moving within the DCDBA service area must complete an Application For Service. A deposit in an amount equivalent to the minimum quarterly ($146) or bi-monthly ($97.33) bill multiplied by the number of EDUs, which most closely resembles that of the property in question, or the highest billing of the property in question, whichever is greater.. Commercial accounts will need to contact the Authority office for the amount of deposit amount that will be required. The deposit will be applied to the final bill when you move from this residence or business. You can download the Application for Service or call our office to have an Application mailed to you.
Note that in the case of rental properties, the sewer service account will not be placed in a tenant's name as unpaid sewer service charges are subject to municipal claim lien of the property.
