Sewer Service Diagram update!

Hi all,

When I bought my property, there was no Sewer Service Diagram (SSD) for the house. The only SSD available is from 1977, when the land was still part of the neighbouring property.

The current house was built as part of a subdivision in 2000.

In the 1977 SSD, it shows the neighbour’s sewer line running through what is now my backyard and connecting to a Sydney Water point.

Today, I had a licensed plumber inspect and trace the services on site. He found that the old neighbour’s sewer line is no longer in use and appears to be decommissioned (broken and filled with soil).

This is reassuring, but I’m unsure what the next step is. How do I get Sydney Water to update their records and reflect the current situation so the outdated 1977 diagram is corrected? I want to make sure everything is properly documented for future development on that part of the land.
