2. Routine Maintenance and Inspection Goals <br />A. Sanitary Sewer Mains <br />Scope of City's Responsibility — The City will maintain the components of the public <br />sanitary sewer system. This includes sanitary sewer mains, manholes, lift stations and the <br />wastewater treatment plant. Private property owners are responsible for the maintenance <br />of sanitary sewer components from their property up to and including the connection to <br />the public sewer system. <br />Schedule — The City's goal is to inspect and maintain the components of its sanitary <br />sewer system according to the attached schedule. <br />Equipment - The equipment used to perform maintenance will depend upon the <br />equipment available and its effectiveness as determined by qualified staff. <br />Television Inspection — The City's sanitary sewer mains will be inspected by television <br />camera in accordance with the attached schedule. Any sewer mains located on a street <br />where a street maintenance project is planned will be inspected before and after such a <br />project. Sanitary sewer mains in a new development must be televised before said mains <br />are turned over to the City. Television inspection may also be used to inspect the system <br />where there are possible problems. In addition, the City may require any main near a <br />construction site to be televised before and after the construction. <br />Visual recordings of sewer main televising will be required of any vendor performing this <br />service for the City. A written report summarizing and interpreting the findings of the <br />televising will also be required. These records will be kept by the City for a minimum of <br />12 years. <br />B. Problem Areas <br />The sanitary sewer mains and facilities identified as Category 1 will receive ordinary <br />routine maintenance as noted on sewer maps. The sanitary sewer mains and facilities <br />identified on the sewer map as Category 2 will receive more frequent maintenance and <br />those identified as Category 3 will receive less frequent maintenance. When a sewer main <br />or facility is identified as anything other than Category 1, the reasons why maintenance is <br />needed on a different schedule will be documented. Sewer mains and facilities will <br />receive maintenance according to the attached schedule. <br />The Wastewater Supervisor will determine whether a main or facility is Category 1, <br />receiving routine sewer maintenance, Category 2, receiving more frequent maintenance <br />or Category 3, receiving less frequent maintenance. Based on periodic assessment, <br />maintenance will be adjusted and a sewer main may be moved from one category to <br />another. <br />2 <br />
