A. Whenever a person applies for a building and/or plumbing permit for a construction valuation that exceeds $60,000, the property owner shall have the PSL for the parcel number Verification Tested and shall submit the results of the Verification Testing to the City Engineer, unless the owner presents satisfactory proof to the City Engineer that the property has a currently valid Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance for that PSL. Alternatively, the owner may replace the entire PSL without prior Verification Testing.

B. In order to ensure compliance with this Section, the property owner or agent shall obtain a Sewer Lateral Certificate of Compliance prior to issuance of the building permit for the construction, except as set forth in subdivision (C).

C. The City of Berkeley Building Official is authorized and directed to implement this Section, and may extend the time to conduct any Verification Testing or repair or replacement under this Section if the PSL replacement is an integral part of the construction project, in which case such repair or replacement and Verification Testing shall be completed prior to final inspection.
