Envirosight Releases New Reference Guide to Sewer Inspection and Maintenance

Envirosight has released a free guide to sewer inspection and maintenance to serve as an introduction for industry newcomers. The guide, Sewer Maintenance 101: The Quick and Dirty Guide to Sewer Inspection and Upkeep, provides a broad overview of how a sewer system functions, how it’s inspected and how it’s maintained. This guide helps jumpstart the orientation of any employee new to the industry or provides refresher training to employees already in the industry.

“With the complexity of inspecting and maintaining a sewer system, training can become complicated and time-consuming,” said Steve Sebastian, Envirosight’s Channel Development Manager.

“We want to give sewer utilities and contractors a resource to get new employees up-to-speed and in the field faster. This guidebook introduces sewer infrastructure and its components; concepts such as inflow and infiltration, cross bores, and sanitary sewer overflows; common sewer inspection methods; and sewer rehabilitation and repair methods. It also includes links to relevant in-depth content from the EPA, NASSCO, OSHA and other sources."

Sewer Maintenance 101: The Quick and Dirty Guide to Sewer Inspection and Upkeep was developed as part of Envirosight’s commitment to creating and sharing educational resources that benefit wastewater professionals.
