Wastewater Installation Fees

Impact charge: The development charge for your impact on Jackson Energy Authority's wastewater system is $600 an acre, $6 a frontage foot, or $100 a lot, whichever is greater. (It is $10 a frontage foot if mains are needed on both sides of the road to serve the properties.)

Extension fee: You will be assessed one half of the total cost to extend the sewer main to and across your property.

Connection costs: You also will be assessed the cost of connecting the service line from the Jackson Energy Authority's main to your property line. The cost ranges from $500 to $1,300 depending on several factors, including the depth of the line and whether JEA must cut into a street.
