The City of Green River has a new, optional program available to homeowners, provided through the National League of Cities Service Line Warranty Program and administered by Service Line Warranties of America. The program provides warranty protection for sewer lines.

“Many citizens are unaware that they are responsible for the sewer lines that go from their houses to the point of utility maintenance. If these lines break or leak, repairs can be very expensive,” said George Michael, utility manager. The warranty program offers residents insurance against unexpected and expensive sewer line breaks.

City residents will see offers in their mail boxes soon. The cost for citizens who choose to purchase the protection is $5.50 per month, and will cover sewer line repairs up to $4,000 plus an additional allowance of $4,000 for public street cutting, if needed. The program is offered at no cost to the city, and no public funds are used to promote the program.

“We are pleased to work with the City of Green River to offer homeowners an affordable program,” said Brad Carmichael, vice president of Business Development for Service Line Warranties of America. “We think Green River residents will be pleased with our features and benefits, including a 24-hour repair hotline and the use of local, certified technicians. This keeps dollars in the local economy, an important benefit in these tough financial times.”
