Seems funny but apparently i can build over sewer line as long as encase, but it is hard to move vent line and complicated. Can anyone explain why vent line harder? Apparently if I want to move Vent Pipe its a different application process and costs more. Anyone able to advise the cost and how long it takes? I was hoping to just move underground pipes around the pool. Also apparently the sewer pipes are asbestos...never knew there was asbestos piping. Does Sydney Water have to replace cost of pipes? not my fault they asbestos. Thanks hoping someone can help.

They should be able to give you an estimate of costs. Stewie Re: Sydney water vent pipes 3Jan 04, 2021 3:24 pm Hi SteveT, Did you ever get a resolution on this?
