Dear: Building Department
Subject to the developer’s successful completion of the on-site water and sewer facilities, and subject to the availability
of water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, the District can and will provide water and sewer
service to the subject project. This approval is only for the issuance of building permits and is only good for two years
from the date of this letter. At this time, no further inspection of the on-site water and sewer facilities is needed by
SMWD to enable the County to release the certificate of occupancy. However, The District still reserves the right to
inspect the on-site plumbing and backflow prevention when necessary. The use of water softeners is prohibited, except
for those recharged at central plants or specifically approved for commercial applications. For commercial purposes, the
District allows the installation of regenerative water softeners only after approving on-site holding facilities that enable brine
to be collected, pumped, and transported outside the District’s service area. For more detailed information, please refer to the
District’s Rules and Regulations for Water, Recycled Water, and Wastewater Service (No 2015-10-05).
Conditions of Approval

of these devices is November 15th, 2025. Backflow tester must submit test results into District’s AquaResource portal.
