The permit holder is the only person who can call
in for the inspection date/ time.
All commercial and industrial permits must be purchased
by the plumbing contractor and must be accompanied by a blueprint and an
isometric drawing. The plumbing contractor must also be registered
with the Ohio Department of Health.
Permits can be paid for at the time of application
but will not be issued until approved.
Water heaters and water softeners for replacement
do not need prior approval for a permit to be issued.
Permit will be approved when the Certified Plumbing
Inspector approves the isometric drawing, signs his name, and dates the
plumbing permit. No work can be started until this is done.
If any work is started before the permit is issued
then a 25% of total penalty fee will be charged before the permit is issued.
All commercial and industrial permits will have a
plan review fee. The fee is 30% of permit fee with a minimum fee
of $45.00.
In order for a plumbing contractor to do work in the
Darke County General Health District, he/she must be registered and have
at the minimum a $20,000 bond.
