§ 152.088 LOT DRAINS.
   All lots shall have access to underground drainage in the forms of Class E conduit lot drains extending from the storm sewers or inlets to the right-of-way line. Acceptable Class E conduit for lot drains shall meet Ohio Department of Transportation specifications: 706.01; 706.02; 706.03; 706.07; 706.08; 706.09; 707.33; 707.42; 707.43; 707.44; 707.45; 707.51 and 707.52. If one of the above-listed P.V.C. or polyethylene pipes is specified for lot drains, it shall be smooth-wall, non-perforated, and P.V.C. pipe shall be schedule SDR 35 or stronger. Lot drains shall carry only sump, percolated and air conditioner water. Lot drains shall not carry stormwater, surface water, downspout water, or septic system and sanitary system effluents. Storm, surface, roof and downspout waters will be drained to the street curb or to storm pipes designed for the purpose of outletting such waters. Lot drains shall not empty directly into a storm sewer unless a “T” fitting or saddle is used in the storm sewer. Lot drains shall not extend into the interior of the storm sewer. When a lot drain is connected directly to a storm sewer, the storm sewer shall be sized appropriately to handle the additional flow. Lot drains for lots having catch basins or manholes located directly in front of the lot shall be connected to the catch basin or manhole, not to the storm sewer.
