Start with the Sewer Use and Drainage Permit (SUDP) number, then match its inspection outcome to the construction permit. A scheduled inspection is a future event; an inspection result is evidence of what the inspector recorded. When the project requires Wastewater approval, that approval is its own entry, separate from the building final.
Denver SUDP, building inspection and Wastewater approval entries
Denver's Sewer Use and Drainage Permits page identifies the wastewater permit route and provides inspection contact instructions. Keep the SUDP identifier and the described sewer or drainage work with the construction permit identifier. The two numbers may describe related work, so compare their scopes and dates beyond the shared address.
The building-inspections guidance documents a no-account address or permit search for Building Log status and Related Records, then Record Info → Inspections. It separates scheduling from results. For a certificate of occupancy, it lists 108-Final plus agency approvals, including Wastewater when required. Read each entry for its own result and date.
For SUDP work, use the inspection email on the SUDP page; the building-inspection page's account-based scheduling instructions are a different route. If a file says only “inspection requested,” look for its later result and date before calling the work inspected. If a result concerns a different SUDP or a revised scope, preserve both records and ask which one governs the work in question.
Match the SUDP, building final and Wastewater entries for one project
Use four short rows. Copy an identifier and date from each document you actually have, leaving unknown cells blank. Some projects need only some of these records.
- Wastewater permit: SUDP number, site description, work scope, and issue or revision date. Note whether the same service or drainage feature appears in the construction file.
- Inspection: Requested date, actual inspection date, result, and the SUDP or other record number on that entry. A request or appointment belongs in the requested-date column.
- Building final: Construction permit number and the 108-Final entry, if that entry applies. Record the result as written; other agencies' decisions sit in their own entries.
- Agency approval: Identify the Wastewater approval entry when required, its date, and the project or permit it covers. If it is missing from your packet, mark it unknown.
Suppose a fictional packet has a SUDP for one sewer connection, a later building permit with a 108-Final entry, and a note that a Wastewater approval is still needed. The building result answers one question. The packet still needs the applicable agency entry or a note on why the project needed none. A second SUDP under the same street address might concern another phase; compare the scope and dates before borrowing its inspection. These entries are invented.
Our Denver zone-lot identity guide helps distinguish a site's identity records from the work-specific permit chain. The final-inspection status guide explains why a recorded final event and its outcome are different. The project's SUDP and agency entries remain the primary records.
When the inspection or older sewer report is missing
First name the missing item precisely: SUDP permit, scheduled inspection, completed inspection result, sewer report, or Wastewater agency approval. For a current record, use the documented search route and inspect the dated entries. Search by address or permit number; older SUDPs may sit outside that view, so request them by number if they are absent.
Denver's right-of-way FAQ says a sewer report copy may be kept on site and describes a copy-request path. Its published contact wording is inconsistent, so confirm the present Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DOTI) custodian through the official page before sending a request. Give the address, SUDP or construction number if known, work description and approximate date. Ask for the particular report or inspection result and which office holds an older copy. How to get a copy of a Denver sewer inspection report covers that copy request step by step.
The linked Clerk and Recorder records page concerns records in that office's possession. Check with DOTI before assuming the Clerk holds its SUDP inspection file. Ask the department that created or maintains the needed item to identify its custodian if the online route stops.
An absent online entry doesn’t prove that an inspection never occurred. Match the actual project-specific result and agency decision before describing closeout. Official Denver pages checked October 8, 2026.
