New developments, renovations, repairs and upgrades and compliance to Sydney Water Standards- Certifier’s Compliance- Section 73 and BOS/BOA

In order to maintain the integrity of its network, Sydney Water has a stringent set of requirements for any new development that may require work to be conducted on or within the vicinity of its infrastructure or facilities. Therefore, for any sub-division or development it may be required to obtain a Section 73 Compliance Certificate or a BOA/BOS Letter also known as a Building Plan Approval. The Consent Authority (Local Council, Department of Planning and Environment and/or Government body) will outline in their requirements if a Section 73 Certificate is required prior to being able to receive occupancy or register the subdivision. A BOS/BOA Letter will be required for any development regardless if a Section 73 Certificate is required or not and outlined in the conditions of the Consent Authority.
