Does the PSC have jurisdiction over damages resulting from sewer backups?

The PSC does not have jurisdiction over damages due to sewer backups.  The party affected should try to work with the sewer utility/municipality to resolve the issue.  If the party is unable to reach a satisfactory settlement with the sewer utility/municipality, the party may wish to consult with an attorney regarding possible legal remedies.
