Description
Every day seems to bring a new regulatory requirement or a new organizational directive that wastewater collection system managers must find a way to meet with the limited amount of time and money available. However, one thing that does not change is the fact that the better the information professionals have to work with the better prepared we will be to make decisions. The most basic information we need in the wastewater collection system industry is the condition of the sewer pipe from a structural, maintenance, and physical dimension perspective. Our most important tool in assessing the condition of a sewer pipe is by means of internal television inspection. Unfortunately with 19,000 wastewater collection systems in the United States we perhaps have just as many different ways to evaluate the sewer pipe condition. NASSCO is implementing this certification program to standardize the way we evaluate sewer pipe condition.
