Line Extension Application

For requests to extend water service to a property or development where water service is not currently available, the requesting party (applicant) is required to submit a completed Line Extension Application and a $500.00 application fee. Be sure to include all information requested on the application. After receiving your completed Line Extension Application and payment, Louisiana Water Company will develop a "preliminary" construction and service cost estimate for the applicant's review. At that time, if the applicant decides to move forward with the project, they must enter into a Line Extension Agreement and remit 10% of the estimated project cost. We will then develop formal engineering plans and specifications for submittal to all regulatory agencies for approval, develop bid packages and solicit competitive bids for the project. After we receive the bids, we will provide that firm pricing for consideration and final approval. To initiate the construction work order for the project, the applicant must pay the total balance due less the 10% estimated project cost payment and the $500.00 application fee payment previously submitted. Once payment is received and upon receipt of all regulatory approvals, we can award the contract and issue the notice to proceed to initiate the installation of the required infrastructure.
