Customer Service

The Mission of the Peachtree City Water and Sewerage Authority is to be a steward of our community’s water resources, providing wastewater services to our customers with exceptional efficiency, while maintaining a robust and resilient infrastructure system that makes this possible.

Customer service is a priority for the Authority, and is a focus for our staff within the three Authority departments (Operations, Collections/Conveyance, and Support Services). The Authority’s priority is to maintain uninterrupted service on behalf of its customers; please contact us with any questions or concerns regarding the performance of the sewer system.

For our customers, your sewer services are provided by the Authority, your drinking water and water services are provided by Fayette County Water System, while your monthly bill for both is administered by the Fayette County Water System.

The Authority provides sewer service to Peachtree City customers. Water rates for Authority customers are determined as services are provided by the Fayette County Water System.

Effective December 2010, as approved by the Authority’s Board, Peachtree City Residential sewer rates include a $26.00 base fee, plus a consumption fee of $4.65 per 1,000 gallons of metered water used each month. Authority sewer rates for Industrial, Commercial and Multi-Family property owners include a $26.00 base fee, plus a consumption fee of $6.15 per 1,000 gallons of metered water. The Authority’s sewer rates are established to operate a system that meets or exceeds regulatory requirements as well as support the funding necessary to maintain a robust and resilient infrastructure system.

Septic Tank Wastes Disposal for the Community.
The Authority provides disposal for residential and commercial septic tank users in Fayette County. Only domestic and commercial waste that is generated within the limits of Fayette County, Georgia will be accepted at the Authority’s designated wastewater receiving facility. The Authority defines commercial waste as being generated by establishments that produce only domestic waste. Any generators of commercial waste that are involved with food preparation must meet the Authority’s grease trap requirements set forth in the Authority’s current Sewer Use Ordinance in order to discharge their septage at the Authority’s receiving plant. The Authority will not under any circumstances accept industrial, portable toilet, grease trap/interceptor, municipal, laboratory, and/or medical waste.

The Authority will only receive up to ten loads per day. Approved haulers must schedule an appointment with prepaid funds via the Hauler Registration link above.
