Construction Permits

CWS is strongly encouraging Construction Permits be submitted via MiEHDWIS to streamline the submittal and approval process. Mailed submissions are no longer accepted. All submissions must be electronic.

If a water supply requires accommodations outside of MiEHDWIS, the following forms can be shared with external users for completion and submission via email to a district office:

• EQP5877 Act 399 Permit Application - Application form to be completed for submissions outside of MiEHDWIS.

• EQP5877a Instructions and Explanation of Act 399 Application - Supporting document explaining parts of the application and offering examples. Supports applications made both in and out of MiEHDWIS.

• EQP5877b Basis of Design for Water Main Projects - Supplemental form for the basis of design of proposed water main. Include this or a similar document with water main projects submitted outside of MiEHDWIS.

• EQP5877c Contaminated Site Evaluation Checklist - Supplemental form for evaluating contaminated sites in or near the project area. Supports applications made both in and out of MiEHDWIS.
