'De aansluiting van uw huishoudelijk riool is te verdelen in een gemeentelijk deel en een particulier deel. Bij uw perceelsgrens houdt de gemeentelijke aansluiting op en begint het particuliere riool. Bij deze grens is in de meeste gevallen een controleputje (ontstoppingsput) gemaakt. Weet u niet waar dit controleputje zit, dan kunt u die informatie krijgen bij de gemeente. '
