The Upstate is advancing at an unprecedented rate and we work hard to ensure the region is ready for that growth. We monitor and evaluate our service area to identify locations that have wastewater capacity limitations. Proposed developments in areas with limited capacity may experience delayed capacity review times while our engineering staff looks at the impact the potential development would have on the current sewer system.
Capacity approvals in these areas might be held or denied until we review and approve the satellite sewer agency's efforts to measure and there is a reduction of inflow and infiltration (I&I). Contact development@re-wa.org to learn if your parcel or development may be impacted by capacity limitations.
