Sewer Lateral Replacement

[ultrarunner]

City Inspector pleased with one correction and will accept a picture…

Now waiting for the Sewer District Inspection which is 100% separate and in part why the permit fees are so high…

City pipes carry the sewage to treatment plant which is sewer district and regional.

I had to do this at a rental house in Merced a few years back. City said I was responsible all the way to the main in the middle of the street. Permits, traffic control, etc. What a mess.

Traffic control runs around $1500 per day for a simple lane closure on a state road...

Nothing like 60+ homes on a city block individually digging up a newly paved once in 60 years blacktop.

Sewer District much harder than city which surprised the heck out of me.

Sewer District demanded line test to the sewer main which was beyond todays scope.

Contractor said ok but he did not install anything under city street…

All 3 passed and if I have to pay extra I’m ok with that because at the end of the day it’s about getting the job done…

Maybe buying lunch for the whole crew today paid off?
