When service lines are connected to main sewers which have no existing wye branches installed, the contractor shall be required to make the tap using commercially manufactured vitrified wye saddles or cut in PVC wye. The saddles shall have an integrally cast flange that will prevent the saddle from projecting into the main sewer. After the saddle has been installed in the main sewer, the entire joint shall be encased in a minimum of six inches of concrete. Provisions shall be made to prevent the concrete from dropping into the barrel of the main sewer. The entire operation shall be performed only when a City Inspector or Engineer is on the job site.
