Tips

  • If your project involves a new septic system or connects to an existing one, coordinate with the Casper-Natrona County Health Department in addition to the county Building Department's plumbing permit.
  • Gas-line-only work is flagged as its own checkbox on the plumbing application — you do not need a separate mechanical permit solely for a gas line install/repair.
