General Permits

In lieu of obtaining a construction permit for each distribution main project, a waterworks owner may elect to obtain a General Permit.

• All requests for a General Permit are directed initially to the appropriate ODW field office.
• The waterworks must have an approved Local Review Program that includes General Specifications and Plan Details (Standards) for water distribution mains.
