Collection System Operation/Maintenance

As collection system networks age, the risk for deterioration, blockages, and collapses becomes a major concern. As a result, municipalities worldwide are taking proactive measures to improve the performance levels of their sewer systems. Cleaning and inspecting sewer lines are essential to maintaining a properly functioning system; these activities further a community’s reinvestment into their wastewater infrastructure.

Sewer Line Inspection Inspection programs are required to determine current sewer conditions and to aide in planning a maintenance strategy. Television inspections are the most frequently used, most cost efficient in the long term, and most effective method to inspect the internal condition of a sewer system.
