All construction methods shall be in accordance with the latest edition of this code and the town’s sewer installation specifications. An infiltration/ex-filtration test, signed and sealed by a licensed professional engineer, may be required on all sewers, including building sewers, if ordered by the Superintendent or Manager (Inspector). The town shall be notified at least one business day in advance of any testing in order to be able to witness the tests. The maximum allowable infiltration rate is 100 gallons per inch diameter per mile of sewer per day, prorated to the length of the building sewer. In the event any manholes or other structures are installed, they too shall be tested, with a maximum allowable infiltration rate of one-tenth gallon per hour per foot of diameter per foot of head. If ordered, all costs shall be borne by the owner.
