Footing Drain Disconnection
The Monroe Metropolitan Wastewater System (MMWS) offers a program to complete work for customers for:
- Disconnection of footing drains that are connected to the sanitary sewer system
- And optionally, install a backwater valve on the plumbing system of existing homes.
The FDD program includes the MMWS to perform a Footing Drain Disconnect at your property to disconnect footing drains from the system. The MMWS will fund 100% of the cost using their contractors to perform the FDD with available budget and schedule.
The FDD Program does NOT cover the following:
- Replacement of a sump pump and or backwater valve when footing drains
have already been separated from the MMWS.
- Work performed prior to September 15, 2023.
