NEW FEE FOR PLUMBING PERMITS
Effective January 1, 2008, Delaware's Division of Public Health (DPH) plumbing permit and inspection program will charge a new permit fee of $100 for each plumbing permit issued to licensed plumbers. Licensed plumbers in Delaware are required to request a plumbing permit from the DPH program for each job.
The fee is collected under the provisions of House Bill 72. The revenue will stay within DPH's plumbing permit and inspection program to fund inspection staff, plan review, enforcement and consulting.
For additional information, licensed plumbers may contact Raymond Davidson at (302) 856-5496.
Delaware Health and Social Services is committed to improving the quality of the lives of Delaware's citizens by promoting health and well-being, fostering self-sufficiency, and protecting vulnerable populations.
