HCC §21-21

Where sewer laterals can be placed

Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗

This section says new sewer laterals should be put as close as possible to where the applicant wants them, but they can connect to existing branches or outlets nearby. The County decides the final alignment and connection point, and can use the same lateral to serve other lots.

A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Hawaiʻi County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.

New laterals shall be installed as near as practicable to the exact location desired by the applicant, but if branches are already in the main or other outlets are available near at hand, the lateral may be run from them. The County reserves the right to establish the alignment of the lateral, the location of the connection and to provide service to other lots from the same lateral.
