Who is responsible for which part

If Brushy Creek MUD bills your sewer, you maintain the sewer service line from the house to the District's main. The District states that "Maintenance of the service line is the responsibility of the homeowner" and that "On a single service, the homeowner's responsibility starts at the main."

The property owner
The sewer service line from the foundation of the house to the District's main sewer line, and the clean outs on it. Where two homes share a dual service, the homeowner's part starts after the wye.

What decides which applies

On a single service the dividing point is the District's main. On a dual service, where two homes share one connection, the District says the homeowner's responsibility "starts after the wye" and refers to a diagram; it does not say in words who keeps the shared piece before the wye. The District maintains its mains, manholes and lift stations. Its staff cannot work on private property, and it asks you to call a plumber for a backup and to tell the District, which can inspect the main. This answer applies only where the District bills your sewer; the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality maps its legal district boundary, which is not a map of who provides sewer service. Check the name on your sewer bill.
