NASTT’s Laterals Good Practices Course (Edmonton, Canada)
Millions of sewer laterals – the portion of sewer networks that connect individual properties to the public sewer network – exist throughout the United States and elsewhere. Many laterals have not been maintained and as a result, allow a significant amount of inflow and infiltration (I/I) into sewer systems, which can lead to sanitary sewer overflows, increased costs and damage. Consequently, there is a compelling need to solve I/I problems of sewer laterals.
