929.09 SEWER PHOTOGRAPHS; INSPECTION REPORTS.

   (a)    The City Engineer is hereby directed, prior to final approval of any newly installed sewer system and/or reconstructed sewer, to require that any and all contractors have photographs made of the entire sewer system installed, showing thereby that the sewer system has been constructed upon a sound engineering basis, that it is free of any and all accumulations of foreign substances, and that the passage and flow of sewage and storm water is free and clear. If the sewers are large enough for visual inspection to be made in lieu of photographs, such visual inspection shall be made and a report of such inspection submitted to the City.

   (b)    After having inspected such photographs and/or visual inspection reports and if satisfied that such sewer is free and clear of all foreign substance and that there is nothing present to prevent the free flow of sewage and storm waters, the Engineer is hereby authorized to approve the same as a final inspection, placing in safekeeping all photographs and/or inspection records for future reference by the City.

   (c)    The cost of such photographing and photographs and/or inspection reports shall be paid for entirely by the contractor or developer of such land and/or sewer system, and such photographs and/or inspection reports shall remain the property of the City.
