1BACRONYMS AND ABBREVIATIONS
The City of Evansville (City) Water and Sewer Utility (Utility) has prepared this document to
describe its Capacity Management, Operations, and Maintenance (CMOM) Programs for the
City’s sewer systems. The Utility used the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
Guidance document, Guide for Evaluating Capacity, Management, Operation and Maintenance
Programs at Sanitary Sewer Collection System (2005), to guide development of the collection of
programs specific to its work practices. Throughout this process, specific topic areas have been
added or deleted based on the Utility’s specific organization, responsibilities, and current status;
and the programs will continue to evolve through time.
In March 2010, the Utility assumed direct control of management, operation, and maintenance
of the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and collection system after nearly 15 years of
management oversight by a contract operator. During the transition to complete in-house
control of management, operations, and maintenance, the Utility began formally developing its
CMOM programs, and to date, has submitted two versions to the USEPA and the Indiana
Department of Environmental Management (IDEM). The Utility submitted CMOM Version 1.1 on
June 30, 2010.
The City and Utility negotiated and subsequently entered into a Consent Decree with the United
States and State of Indiana (the Consent Decree) in June 2011. Article VI Section F of the
Consent Decree requires the Utility to develop a CMOM program and implement measures to
provide for the proper operation and maintenance of equipment while minimizing failures,
malfunctions, and line blockages that could contribute to sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and
combined sewer system (CSS) releases. The Consent Decree requires the Utility to develop its
CMOM program fully by November 30, 2012.
The Utility submitted CMOM Version 2.0 on May 1, 2011, and received comments back from
USEPA on July 28, 2011. The Utility provided responses to the USEPA comments on August 29,
2011, to demonstrate its progress with the CMOM program. The Utility subsequently submitted
CMOM 2.1 on February 29, 2012.
provide for the proper operation and maintenance (O&M) of its assets while minimizing failures,
malfunctions, and line blockages that could contribute to SSOs and CSS releases.
The Utility currently has the majority of practices in use that meet basic CMOM expectations,
and it continues to standardize and refine documentation and data related to its CMOM
programs. Specific goals of the Utility’s CMOM programs are to:
For each activity or individual program within the Utility’s collection of CMOM programs,
existing practices are documented. Each section contains the following:
• A brief description of the scope of each program, including activities identified based on
USEPA guidance
• Overview of SSO history and detailed assessment of the causes of system releases and other
system issues (private property overflows and other customer complaints)
• Review of process for identifying and funding Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects,
repair and rehabilitation needs, and other collection system improvements

3.1 Introduction
Management of a utility’s organization, human resources, information database, finances, and
assets has a direct impact on the utility’s operational efficiency and financial status. The levels of
service that a utility provides to its customers, and the effectiveness of the utility as a whole are
determined by the policies and management practices of the utility. Section 3 discusses the
management program elements managed and directed by the ULT.
3.2 Scope
The Utility’s management program is organized and implemented by the ULT. Elements to be
managed include:
• Legal authority
• Financial management and budgets
• Training and Safety
• Communication and public outreach
• Customer service
• Information management
• Equipment and supplies
• Overflow tracking and prevention
• Engineering
• Sewer use
• Industrial wastes
• Sewer connections and construction
• Rates and charges
• Violations and penalties
The SUO contains specific information, such as general prohibitions of fire and explosion
hazards, oils or petroleum, corrosive materials, materials that may cause interference at the
wastewater treatment plant, and obstructive materials. It also contains procedures and
enforcement actions for controlling fats, oils, and grease (FOG), infiltration/inflow (I/I), building
structures over the sewerlines, stormwater connections to sanitary lines, defects in service
laterals located on private property, and sump pumps. The SUO also contains procedures for
inspection standards, pretreatment requirements, building/sewer permitting.
The Utility is primarily responsible for developing and updating the SUO, and it meets the basic
requirements of the NPDES permit.
The Utility’s SUO Wastewater Discharge Regulations detailed in Chapter 13.20 contains user
restrictions, requirements and the authority to regulate, test, and validate industrial discharges.
IDEM periodically reviews the pretreatment program consistent with state responsibility
delegated to the state by USEPA. The Utility continually works with IDEM to improve
the program.
3.3.4.1 Authority
The Utility has developed a FOG inspection program in coordination with the Vanderburgh
County Health Department (VCHD) to ensure that all food establishments are notified of
requirements for grease trap design, installation, and maintenance. An overview of the Utility’s
FOG inspection program is located in Section 4.8.
The Utility’s SUO Section 13.05.090 (Grease, Oil, or Sand Traps) provides provisions for building
sewers that have or had the potential to discharge grease, oil, sand or similar substances into
the sewer system. Furthermore, additional discharge provisions are contained in
Section 13.20.020 (Wastewater Discharge Regulations)
Section 13.05.130 (Notice of Violations–Liability) provides the Utility with authority to issue a
Notice of Violation for noncompliance and Section 13.05.340 (Penalty) provides the Utility with
the authority to assess penalties.
The City has enacted policies, codes, ordinances, and plans to comply with the law.
Satellite communities must enter into an agreement that includes the requirements listed in the
City’s SUO. Agreements have a date of termination and allow for renewal under different terms.
The City’s SUO does not specifically address the satellite communities. The City has
interjurisdictional, or intermunicipal, agreements with the satellite communities, except for
unincorporated Vanderburgh County and areas in Warrick County near Newburgh.
Standards, inspections, and approval for new connections are documented in the SUO. The
standards are detailed in the Sewer Handbook (Appendix D). While not formally documented in
the SUO, interlocal agreements require satellite communities to adopt discharge limits (same
industrial and commercial regulator discharge limits as the owner) to comply with the City’s
NPDES permits. The interlocal agreements require satellite communities to adopt the same
inspection and sampling schedules as required by the pretreatment ordinance. The agreements
state that satellite communities must comply with the ordinance regarding pollutants and
wastewater strength. Satellite communities (owners and operators) are required to issue
control permits for significant industrial users.
• Safety
• Confined space entry
• Pipe repair
• Trenching and shoring
• SSO/emergency response
• Record keeping
• Electrical and instrumentation
The following programs have formal curriculums: safety, trenching and shoring, confined space,
Emergency Response Plan, and SSO/emergency response (now the Sewer Overflow Response
Plan [SORP] training).
Maintenance skills are primarily learned through on-the-job training. Eighty-five to 90 percent of
the staff have been at Utility for many years and have long-term experience in their job
functions. On-the-job training is not documented, and no mandatory collection system training
is required in Indiana. Commercial driver licenses are required to operate dump trucks and
combination trucks.
The Utility Department Managers will provide in-house training that addresses line maintenance
procedures and safety.
• Lockout/tagout
• Material safety data sheet
• Chemical handling
• Confined spaces permit program
• Trenching and excavations
• Blood borne pathogens
The City also maintains public education programs such as illegal dumping prohibition, recycling,
and solid household hazardous waste programs. The programs and other public education
programs are detailed in the Utility’s CSO Operation Plan.
Public Education programs can encourage the proper disposal of items. Utility staff conducts
WWTP tours for grade schools, high schools, universities, and other interested groups to teach
about wastewater’s link with the natural hydrologic cycle. In addition, the Utility participates in
community projects that give young people an awareness of issues such as water conservation,
water pollution, and the importance of water to our society. The Vanderburgh County Solid Waste
Management District develops and distributes educational materials to citizens and businesses on
waste reduction and recycling, composting, hazardous waste, improper waste disposal, and other
issues. In addition, it also carries out many other activities, such as agricultural pesticide container
recycling and the household battery recycling program.

3.9.3 Vehicles
Vehicles are tracked manually on spreadsheets and maintained by the Utility. The Utility is
responsible for the purchase, maintenance, and repair of Utility vehicles, and construction
equipment. CityWorks is used to produce work orders for vehicle maintenance.
Part of the annual operating budget is allocated for vehicle purchase. Budget is calculated based
on monthly vehicles and equipment maintenance and repairs.
Previously, the operator identified when a vehicle or equipment required replacement and
would recommend its purchase. If the Utility needs an additional vehicle or construction
equipment item, the purchase will be included in the annual operating budget in the future.
Utility hourly employees perform general maintenance to vehicles and construction equipment,
but if major repairs are required, they will contact and coordinate the repairs with the
manufacturers. In addition, they manage preventive maintenance schedules of the vehicles,
which are tied generally to mileage or operating hours.
Overall, the prior Utility had indicated that maintenance equipment, storage facility, and truck
maintenance was considered adequate. Each Maintenance Crew operates a combination
vacuum flusher (vac/flusher) truck; there are two trucks available for each shift (two trucks on
day shift and two on second shift). Vac/flusher trucks are repaired by an outside company.
• One vac/flusher truck is dedicated to inlet cleaning in the combined sewer system.
• Two vac/flusher trucks are dedicated to general cleaning focusing on completing the 3-year
cycle (by subbasin or formerly by quarters).
• One vac/flusher truck for preventive maintenance of hot spots.
• One closed-circuit television (CCTV) truck. The Utility purchased a second CCTV truck tin
2012. The second TV Truck is used by the Engineering Department exclusively for proactive
sewer line inspection.
3.11 Engineering
The Engineering program element describes the engineering processes and responsibilities for
managing the design and construction standards, new connections, flow acceptance, plan
reviews, capacity assurance, and acquisitions. The Engineering Department provides inspection
and record keeping for new development and CIP projects.
The overall purpose of the Engineering Department is to manage system capacity and the
quality of new infrastructure. Goals include providing document reviews in a timely manner,
tracking development progress, managing project documentation, and managing staff
resources.
The Engineering Department is responsible for project management, sewer reviews, water tap
applications, developer site plan reviews, construction inspection, and for coordination with the
other City Departments. The Utility generally uses outside engineering consulting firms for
capital projects.
construction, and then provides bidding services and construction inspection services as
necessary.
Lift station design review is performed by the Engineering Department.
After reviews are completed and approved by the Engineering Department, and final project
approval authority is recommended to the Utility Board.
The Engineering Department also reviews conflicts with Indiana Department of Transportation
highway projects, as well as City and County roadway improvements.
3.11.2 Standard Design Criteria
The goals of Standard Design Criteria are as follows:
Streamline designs and reduce operation costs
Avoid long‐term problems through better designs
Both CIP and private development projects must comply with the Utility’s Sewer Handbook.
Compliance includes acceptable materials, equipment, and installation methods. The Sewer
Handbook details these design criteria and standard construction details, and is included in
Appendix D.
Life‐cycle cost analysis is not required as part of the design process for private development.
3.12 Construction Inspection
The goals of the Construction Inspection activities are as follows:
Inspect and assure proper construction of sewer facilities in conformance with the approved
plans
Coordinate new sewer connections and pump stations startups in a manner that does not
adversely affect wastewater system operations
Maintain system integrity and efficiency, as new and rehabilitated sewers become part of
the operating wastewater system
Once a CIP or Development project is underway, inspections are provided by the Engineering
staff. Engineering staff witnesses and conducts all inspections and testing for private
development and most CIP projects, as well as grease trap inspections. Consultant inspectors
are used to provide the day‐to‐day services on large projects, including plumbing taps and the
force mains. Engineering staff also document the results and findings. Inspection logs and
checklists are used by Engineering Department staff to facilitate their reviews.
Paragraph 25.e of the Consent Decree requires:
Procedures for testing or otherwise ensuring that new or recently rehabilitated Sewer
Segments and connections are properly designed and constructed to prevent
misalignments or other physical impediments to flow that would cause or contribute to
SSOs, CSS Releases, and/or new connections of storm water inflow;
As stated above, the Sewer Handbook details the design criteria and standard construction
details, which provides for misalignments and any other physical impediments that could cause
REP‐2012‐11‐30_CMOMv_3‐0_Clean (WBG022212172630MKE) 3‐19
SECTION 3
or contribute to SSOs, CSS Releases, and/or new connections of stormwater inflow. In addition,
the Utility has language in its standard construction contracts that governs testing and quality
control requirements, and construction projects are inspected by the Engineering Department
during construction. Testing and quality control documentation is reviewed prior to acceptance
of projects and release of final contractor payments. Appendix S provides examples of the
construction specifications that provide this requirement.
3.12.1 Acquisitions
The City assumes ownership of sewer systems built by private developers when it is determined
to pass the final inspection including sewer mandrel and air test, and manhole vacuum tests.
Record drawing submission is also required as part of the acceptance process. CCTV inspection
of all lines before final acceptance is not done routinely at this time.
3.12.2 Capacity Assurance
The Utility has identified capacity assurance to be a major focus area and a formal capacity
assurance plan is being developed in conjunction with IOCP development.
3.12.3 Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Studies and Condition Assessment
The Utility submitted a Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Studies (SSES) Work Plan in November 2010
and initiated the activities in February 2011. The Utility contracted the SSES and condition
assessment activities to others so that the Utility could focus on day‐to‐day operation and
maintenance of the system. The SSES activities consisted of the following:
Manhole inspections
Smoke testing
Pipeline inspection using both QuickView cameras and CCTV
Trunk line segments (15‐ to 24‐inch‐diameter) and manholes in the SSS were evaluated
beginning February 2011 with a majority of the work completed between March and June 2011.
Assessment of (8‐ to 12–inch‐diameter) sewerline in the SSS was initiated in June 2011, and the
work was completed in December 2011.
A Sewer System Assessment Report that includes an SSES Report and condition assessment
contained the results of the inspections. The Sewer System Assessment Report was submitted
March 31, 2012, as a Consent Decree requirement.
3.13 System Assessment and Rehabilitation
The purpose of a System Assessment and Rehabilitation Program is to provide a mechanism for
the ongoing rehabilitation and long‐term sustainability of the City’s sewer infrastructure. The
goal of the program is to ensure the operational integrity of the system and preserve adequate
capacity. The Utility has been performing and evaluating its ongoing sewer assessment program
as a part of IOCP development.
3.13.1 Assessment Process
As part of the Utility’s preventive maintenance program, sewers were identified for continued
cleaning or for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of a sewer is recommended when a line has a
history of problems or sewer failure is presumed to be imminent.

SECTION 3
3.13.2 Rehabilitation Plan
The City is planning and moving forward with prioritizing areas for rehabilitation based on the
Draft IOCP submitted July 31, 2012 and also through a renewed focus on Utility‐driven,
proactive sewer assessment using in‐house resources. The Utility has historically contracted out
CIP rehabilitation projects such as sewer lining and manhole rehabilitation, depending on
specifications entailed. The Utility has worked and will continue to work with the City in
establishing specification requirements. The Engineering Department will lead that initiative.

SECTION 4
Operational and Maintenance Programs
4.1 Introduction
Section 4 describes the Utility’s O&M programs that the Utility developed and implemented
from CMOM Version 2.0 to meet the requirements of the Consent Decree.
• Conducting routine, proactive cleaning and inspection of all 8-inch through 15-inch gravity
sewers
• Conducting manhole inspections during C&I activities to identify obvious structural defects
and prioritizing repair of any major structural defects found
The Utility has implemented its proactive C&I and manhole inspection program to meet the
performance requirements outlined in the Decree. Follow-up video inspections and/or repairs
will be requested as needed by the Collection System Supervisor.
The initial C&I cycle will be completed by November 1, 2017, with 70 percent of 8-inch through
15-inch pipes being cleaned and inspected by November 1, 2015.
The Consent Decree also requires the Utility to develop a follow-up C&I program conducted on

cleaned and inspected annually throughout the entire program.
cleaned, start time, end time, date, and any deviation or unusual condition encountered
preventing cleaning and inspection in the comments section. Crew members will follow the
Manhole Inspection and Small-diameter C&I SOP for cleaning and inspection work (Appendix R).
Crews will also notate or highlight the areas cleaned and redline the hard copy subbasin maps to
note any deviation(s) from the GIS map to the sewer line and manhole locations found in the
field. At the end of the day, the crew returns the daily log to the maintenance supervisor. All
subbasin maps used by the crews are returned to Sewer Maintenance management for review
with the GIS/IT Coordinator.
• Conducting visual inspections of sewer segments and using other techniques such as
QuickView camera and CCTV of the segments
• Review the inspection results to prioritize cleaning, and to prioritize sewerlines that require
rehabilitation work such as relining, patch lining, or replacement
implementation, which includes planning, scheduling the crew’s work, and data management,
which includes ensuring the work is tracked in the Utility’s database system.
4.5.1 Scope
The Utility’s OCD Program scope includes the following:
• Reactive work in conjunction with SORP overflow analysis investigation by conducting CCTV
inspection of sewer segments within 10 days of an event if the root cause is not readily
apparent
• Identify the specific sewer system pipeline segments where overflows have occurred
• Conduct CCTV inspections of these segments within 10 days of the event to determine the
condition of the line segment and identify corrective actions if the cause of the overflow is
not readily apparent
ongoing condition assessment to identify and forecast rehabilitation and replacement projects.
The proactive work will continue on for many years into the future.
• Conduct an assessment of the adequacy of the lift stations’ compliance with the Ten State
Standards.
• Provide an action plan for the lift stations to achieve compliance and a schedule to
implement the actions if any lift stations do not comply with Ten State Standards.
• Provide a power outage response consistent with Ten State Standards sufficient to operate
the lift station at its rated capacity as well as all ancillary equipment and instrumentation
necessary to prevent releases.
Appendix H lists the Utility’s lift stations that were assessed for CMOM Version 3.0. Lift station
locations are shown on the Collection System Map Figure 4-2. The lift station assessment is
located in Appendix I.
The results of the fieldwork are included in a separate document titled Evansville Sanitary Sewer
Pump Assessment (CMOM 3.0), and a copy of the document is kept with the Engineering
Department at the Utility’s O&M Facility, 1931 Allens Lane, Evansville Indiana. A CD of the entire
lift station assessment document is attached as Appendix P.
management. Six staff members form three crews; each crew deploys to one of three routes for
inspection, operation, and maintenance throughout the collection system.
Lift Station inspections generally begin at the first of the week on Monday and Tuesday. Each
crew follows a planned route list to complete lift station inspection. The lift station routes by
crew are shown in Appendix J. Figure 4-1 shows the lift station inspection areas that are also
maintained in the Utility’s GIS.
Inspecting lift stations once per week requires each crew to inspect 15 stations per day, which
equates to 90 lift stations inspected in 2 days. Wednesday through Friday are generally the days
used for maintenance and non-emergency repairs. The Utility dedicates one staff member to
daily inspection, operation and maintenance for the Weinbach and Seventh Avenue lift stations,
the largest lift stations in the system.
The lift station inspection process includes but is not limited to the following: telemetry
connection check, observe alarm faults, pump and sump pump lubrication and connections,
valve operation, control mechanisms, wet well cleaning, and general housekeeping. Equipment
is repaired or modified as required.
Shift hours typically run from 7:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Night and
weekend standby duty responsibilities are assigned by the Lift Station Manager. All lift station
crews are on call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week to respond to complaints and alarms. For
round-the-clock coverage involving lift station citizen complaints and telemetry system alarms,
on-call management rotates every 4 weeks and includes the East and West WWTP Manager,
Wastewater Superintendent, and Lift Station Manager.

SECTION 4
• A summary of key information for the 22 lift stations with this document, including key
contacts and equipment
• Bypass pumping process flow for individual stations without onsite generators
The power outage plan for the lift stations is included with the Lift Station Assessment
(Appendix P).
Hard copy record drawings for lift stations and appurtenant facilities are available for viewing at
the Utility’s Engineering Division office located at the O&M Facility.
4.8.1 Scope
The Utility’s FOG Program includes:
• A Sewer Use Ordinance which prohibits the discharge of mineral-based oils and greases into
the sewer system and mandates that a grease trap be installed in all restaurants and food-
preparation establishments that have the potential to discharge waste containing grease (the
section of the Evansville Municipal Code requiring prohibiting the discharge of grease is
attached as Appendix C)
• Repeat cleaning of pipeline segments where grease buildup or blockages have occurred in
the past (identification of sewer segments impacted by FOG and cleaning are covered by the
RBC&I Program described above)
• Establishing and maintaining the database of Food Establishments that are sources of FOG
• Notification procedures for new Food Establishments to control FOG, including a grease trap
questionnaire and a grease trap sizing worksheet (Appendix L-2)
• Food Establishments that do not maintain their grease trap are posted in the Sunday
newspaper by the VCHD weekly. They are listed two different ways: noncritical violations
and critical violations. The noncritical violations stem from an establishment not
maintaining its grease trap. The critical violations are generated if after a repeat visit by the
VCHD the establishment has still not cleaned the trap.
In addition to receiving updates from the VCHD to track new food establishments, the Utility
attends the regular County Planning Department site review public meeting when the agenda
indicates that a food establishment is requesting approval, and the Utility will send out a Grease
Trap Questionnaire (Appendix L-1) if the food establishment is approved. The information
provided to the Utility by the questionnaire begins the process of regulating a food
establishment for FOG.
civil action that may be needed for failure of the establishment to comply or submit payment.
Payments will be collected by the Utility Administrative offices. The fine structure for not-for-
profit entities is similar to the above, but allows additional time for compliance (see
Appendix L-6).
• Recording treatment method types and the frequency of treatment. Typical root treatments
include the following:
− Root cutting
− Chemical Control and inhibitor (RootX)
The following SOPs are used to conduct root control activities:
RootX (The protocol for RootX application is found in Appendix N.)
Traffic control
4.9.4 Data Management
The data management of the RBC&I program above is again used to plan and schedule the
crew’s work, and CityWorks for work tracking and reporting. CityWorks will also be used to
create work orders for follow‐up repair or rehabilitation, CCTV inspection, for root blockages.
For tracking and reporting, all root blockage field data will be stored electronically and tabulated
into monthly reports as required for inclusion in the Utility’s Semi‐Annual Report.
4.10 Backup Equipment Inventory
4.10.1 Scope
The Utility’s Backup Equipment Inventory list complies with Section F, Paragraph 23.c, of the
Decree, which requires the Utility to maintain an accessible and updated inventory of backup
equipment or spare parts.
The Utility owns and operates sewer maintenance equipment that is stored at the O&M facility
and WWTPs. The Utility’s equipment list, including redundant portable backup pumps and
generators, can be found in Appendix E.
4.10.2 Schedule and Resource Management
The Collection System Manager is responsible for managing the equipment and vehicles used in
conjunction with maintenance of the collection system. Two combination trucks are available
for each shift (two trucks on day shift and two trucks on second shift). Maintenance for the
Combination trucks is performed by an outside contracted company.
4.10.3 Standard Operating Procedures
Traffic control
Tailgate vehicle safety sessions
4.10.4 Data Management
The Utility performs regularly scheduled equipment maintenance with assigned work order
numbers including but not limited to equipment asset number and description, maintenance, or
repair condition, date reported and date completed. Maintenance records are maintained by the
Collection Systems Administrative Assistant and stored in CityWorks.
4.11 Critical Components
The Utility has prepared a narrative of critical components (Appendix O) for the WWTPs and
collection systems and has submitted a plan for obtaining and maintaining redundancy or
backups of the Utility’s lift stations and other key components of the system. The Utility’s
system characterization coupled with the Utility’s implementation of a new CMMS, CityWorks,
will provide the tools and data necessary to better manage its critical assets.

its own sampling and testing at the customer’s expense, as an additional wastewater service
charge, or terminate sewer service.
(H) The Water and Sewer Utility may establish standard BOD and SS loadings for a specific
customer class which shall be used to determine applicable quality charges, using the quality
charge rates approved herein, for each customer within that classification as determined by the
Water and Sewer Utility.
(I) Additional charges under this section shall be assessed as follows:

(G) The charges established in subsection (C) of this section shall not apply in the following
instances during the period indicated:
(1) For any improvement or real estate covered by any written contract with the City,
acting by and through the board, and with a private contractor, and regardless of whether
amounts charged under the contract are more or less than required under subsection (C) of this
section, under the following circumstances: the contract is in full force and effect and has not
been satisfied; the private contractor has not fully received all recoupment to which he is entitled
under the contract; and the improvement or real estate is subject to charges imposed for direct
tap-in or connection to the sewer constructed under the contract, regardless of whether or not
the improvement or real estate is also subject to a charge for an indirect tap-in or connection to
the City sewer system. In the event that all these circumstances are satisfied, then the charges
established in the contract for the direct tap-in or connection (but not any charge for any indirect
tap-in or connection) shall preempt and supersede the charges established under this section.
However, if any payment to be made under such a contract would be more than enough
to pay the private contractor of the contract in full, then the tap-in and connection charge shall be
whichever of the following is the lesser:
http://www.codepublishing.com/IN/Evansville/html/Evansville13/Evansville1305.html 11/16/2009
Chapter 13.05 SEWERS Page 15 of 17
(a) The total amount required to be paid under the contract without consideration of
the fact that the contract is being paid in full.
(b) The amount required under subsection (C) of this section. However, in no event
shall the amount required to be paid under subsection (C) of this section be less than that
amount required to pay the private contract in full.
(2) In an instance where an individual privately constructs a sanitary sewer system, the
Utility Board is authorized and granted authority to permit modifications or exceptions to the
foregoing schedule within its sole discretion, the modifications or exceptions to depend on
particular circumstances such as, but not limited to, the distance of the development from an
existing sewer, the cost for the construction of a line connecting the existing sewer to the
development, the ownership of the line, and the right to recoupment from the line.
(H) The charges under subsection (C) of this section shall be reduced by the amount of any
charge paid to the City under any control between a private contractor and the City, acting by
and through the board, for any indirect tap-in (for a lateral or an extension) to the City sewer
system under the contract while the contract is in full force and effect.
(I) This section shall be subject to the following additional terms, provisions, and
interpretations:
(1) In the event any real estate or improvements can reasonably be tapped into or
connected to more than one sewer, the board shall determine to which sewer the tap-in shall be
made.
(2) Where a tap-in charge is to serve a new improvement which replaces an old
improvement, where the old improvement has been either destroyed or removed from the real
estate and the old improvement was properly connected to the City sewer system, either directly
or indirectly, and the construction of the new improvement upon the real estate is commenced
within 60 months from the date of destruction or removal of the old improvement on the real
estate, then the following shall apply:
(a) If the tap-in and connection charge for the new improvement under subsection
(C) of this section would be the same or less than the tap-in and connection charge under
subsection (C) of this section would have been for the old improvement if the old improvement
had been made under subsection (C) of this section, then there shall be no additional tap-in
charge.
(b) The schedule in subsection (C) of this section shall apply to add-ons or
additions, enlargements, or changed to an existing improvement reduced by all amounts which
have previously been paid for the improvements under this section, or reduced by all amounts
that would have been paid under subsection (C) of this section had the original tap-in been
made pursuant to this section. No reduction in amount shall be allowed if no tap-in fee has been
paid. In no event shall the additional tap-in and connection charge be less than the fee provided
in subsection (C)(10) of this section. There shall not be an add-on charge for single-family
residential houses, residential duplex homes, service stations, car washes, or a combination of a
service station and car wash, mobile homes, trailers, motor homes, or other similar-type vehicle
homes so long as the add-on addition, enlargement, or change does not modify the original use
category listed above. If there is no additional plumbing in the addition, enlargement, or change,
no additional fee shall be charged.
(3) In the event the construction of the new improvement is after 60 months from the date
of destruction or removal of the old improvement from the real estate, then this provision shall
not apply and there shall be no credit whatsoever for the old improvement; the tap-in and
connection charge shall be determined under this section as if there had never been any old
improvement on the real estate.
(4) The schedule in subsection (C) of this section shall apply to add-ons or additions,
enlargements, or changes to an existing improvement. These modifications shall be considered
separate, new, and independent structures to be tapped, either directly or indirectly, to the City
sewer system, and the tap-in charge shall be computed as if the modification were a separate
structure. However, there shall not be an add-on charge for single-family residential houses,
residential duplex homes, service stations, car washes, or a combination of a service station and
a car wash, mobile homes, trailers, motor homes, or other similar vehicular-type home, so long
as the add-on addition, enlargement, or change does not modify the original use category listed
above.
(J) In the event any situation arises which is not contemplated or covered by the foregoing

Sewer systems that do not qualify for acceptance, unless the sewers are built along the
perimeter of the property and provide access for maintenance and future extension, include
the following:
8
a. Apartment complex sewer systems
NOTE: Although these sewer systems do not qualify for acceptance, they must be built to
comply with these rules, regulations, and specifications.
Plans submitted with any application for sewer extensions must be complete, including
material specifications, estimated flow, elevations, easements, safety devices, and
necessary lift equipment. The plans must be signed by a professional engineer licensed in
the State of Indiana or a Land Surveyor if the sewer is to be a gravity only type of
installation. Plans and subsequent construction must meet all Federal, I.D.E.M. and Local
standards, rules and regulations. Each Application must be submitted with a separate
application fee.
The preliminary plans shall consist of plan and profile drawings showing the proposed
sewer layout with rights of way, easements, location of other utilities, flow calculations for
immediate service area and future tributary service areas.
Any special construction required should be explained in a letter attached to the plans.
No plans will be presented to the Evansville Utility Board if such plans include the use of
sewers previously installed, which have not been accepted by the Utility.
The original application, plans, specifications and supporting data will be forwarded to the
Utility Engineering Department. The project then will be placed on the Engineering Status
Report for review and recommendations. A comprehensive plan, including lift station
requirements and long-term service for the future tributaries in the area, will be developed
based upon accepted formulas for waste generation, pipe sizes, and so forth. If lift station
plans are required, they will be presented to the Utility Engineering Department for its
review. The Utility Engineering Department then will prepare a letter noting recommended
changes in the plans and forward them to the applicant's engineer to be incorporated into
the plans. A capacity letter, including any requested changes, will be forwarded to the
Indiana Department of Environmental Management.
The Utility Engineering Department Staff will normally complete the investigation within ten
(10) working days.
The Utility shall have the right to modify the proposed extension to increase capacity or
service area beyond the development or land owned or controlled by the developer, and
shall participate in the cost of such modifications as approved by the Utility Board. An
amount agreed upon for the completion of the job will be paid as follows:
9
25 percent upon start of construction
25 percent when project is 50 percent complete (based on Utility's judgement)
50 percent balance when sewer is accepted for operation
NOTE: The amount paid the applicant at start of construction shall be reflected in the letter
of credit or bonding by the Area Plan Commission.
When revised plans have been received from the applicant's engineer and approved by the
Utility Engineering Department Staff, the plans will be presented to the Utility Board for
their approval. The Utility Board secretary shall inform the applicant in writing of the
decision of the Board and shall enclose a copy of the application signed by the Board
President or designee.
Should the applicant disagree with the suggested recommendations from the Utility
Engineering Department Staff a written request of appeal shall be made to the Utility
Board. The Utility Board will make the final decision and will inform the applicant in writing
of their decision.
Each property being serviced by new sewer services shall provide separate lines for storm
and sanitary flows to the property line or right of way line. Sanitary sewer laterals shall
have clean-outs at or near the property line and shall be no less than six (6) inches
diameter lines between the clean-out and the main line. When extending mains, laterals
shall be installed to known future points of service. Such laterals shall terminate at the
property line or easement line.
The sewer construction should be started within one hundred and eighty (180) days from
the approval of the Utility application and completed within three hundred and sixty-five
(365) calendar days from the date of Board approval of the plans. If not completed or
granted an extension of time within the specified time period, the application will expire and
a new application and service fee will be required to reactivate the project.
An extension of time may be granted by the Utility in reply to a written request, when
request is reviewed by Utility Engineering Department staff and found to be justified.
Construction of any extension of a sewer system shall be done only by a contractor having
a current Bond and Certificate of Insurance on file with the Utility. The contractor shall also
be approved by Utility Engineering Department, and be listed with the Utility Engineering
Department as an approved contractor.
NOTES:
10
For detailed construction specifications for sewer main extensions and related
appurtenances, refer to the Technical Specifications and Exhibits in the rear of this booklet
and/or contact the Utility Engineering Department staff.
Upon completion of the installation, a written request for inspection of the sewer system by
the Utility Engineering Department staff shall be made by applicant. Applicant shall include
certified copies of the air and mandrel test results, and two sets of the as-built drawings.
A punch list will be compiled by the Utility Engineering Department and forwarded to the
applicant’s engineer. No further action will be taken until the sewer construction conforms
to the corrections required by the punch list and the Utility has been informed in writing that
another inspection is requested. Utility Engineering Department Staff will make the
inspection within ten (10) working days upon receipt of request.
Failure to meet punch list requirements within ninety (90) days may result in disconnection
of sewer service. In instances where a letter of credit/bond has been given to the Area
Plan Commission, the letter of credit/bond may be used to insure proper completion of the
project.
Requests to Utility for qualifying sewers as operational after passing final inspection must
be made in writing to the Engineering Department and Sewer Utility Board. One complete
set of approved as-built plans on 24”x36” Mylar (transparent) sheets and easements, etc.
must be submitted along with request.
The applicant shall certify in a letter to the Utility Board (submitted through Utility
Engineering Department,) that the sewer system has been completed according to the
approved plans and specifications and shall state that the applicant warrants the system
from structural failures as a result of faulty workmanship or materials for one (1) year, after
which the sewer will become property of the City and will be maintained by the Sewer
Department. The utility will inspect sewers at the end of the one year warranty period.
All free standing structures used for commercial, industrial or institutional enterprise will
require individual sewer service with a clean-out adjacent to the property line and a
dedicated tap-in connection. This includes every structure, although individual buildings
may be connected by a passageway, walkway, or tunnel.
All buildings being re-modeled, except those designated for single family residential use,
must be reviewed for possible additional tap fees. A separate application is required for
each building.
In Combination Sewer Areas any alterations of property use must be reviewed to verify that
no additional storm water will be discharged into the combination sewer. A separate
11
application is required for each such instance. Storm water drainage and detention must
meet the criteria as set by Utility and City Engineering Departments.
Any proposed installation utilizing lines not previously accepted for maintenance by the
Utility will be rejected.
After Board approval, the Applicant will be notified of that action. The tap fee, less the
previously paid service fee, must then be paid at the Utility’s office.
Before any construction is initiated on a site, and after getting the Utility Board tap-in
connection application approved, a Construction/Plumbing Permit must be obtained by the
applicant/ licensed plumber from the Building Commissioner’s Office, Room 310 Civic
Center Complex. This will require evidence of an approved Tap-in/Connection Application
from the Utility Board. The original, and copies one (1), and two (2) will be forwarded to the
Utility Engineering Department for review. Copy three (3) shall be presented to the Building
Commission Office.
Tap-In Materials
Tap-In saddles for existing sanitary sewers shall be one of the following:
1. ROMAC, Style “CB” Sewer Saddle
2. Geneco, Sealtite Type “U” Multi-Range Tee Sewer Saddle
A request for inspection shall be made at least (24) twenty-four hours prior to making such
connection. The plumbing contractor is responsible for contacting the Engineering
Department. An Inspector will personally make an appointment for an inspection and the
Building Commissions Plumbing Inspector if applicable. The Utility does not schedule after
hour inspections except in case of emergency. The contractor or applicant requiring the
special inspection shall pay any expense for after hour inspections.
The building sewer and tap-in or connection shall be done by or under the direction of a
licensed plumber registered with the Building Commission.
12
All taps shall use factory wye installed during sanitary sewer main installation where
available.
Tap in connections where a factory wye is not available shall be core drilled into the sewer
main. The core drill diameter shall be, at a minimum, the same size as the sewer lateral or
as required by sewer saddle manufacturer. The main shall be drilled 30 to 40 degrees
from vertical as measured circumferentially around the pipe from its center. Tap in
connections that are core drilled shall use a restrained sewer saddle as specified herein.
If the main is damaged, it must be repaired in an approved manner acceptable to the Utility
Engineering Department.
When a tap (hook-up) is to be made at a location requiring construction from the main to
the building being served, it must be laid at one time, and will be inspected by the Utility
Engineering Department. Construction must include the Wye Fitting (if required), a lateral
to the property line clean out and extension to within approximately four (4) feet of the
premises to be served. The lateral laid from the tap to the building shall have a cleanout
located every (100) one hundred feet. In making the (100) one hundred-foot calculation the
height of the cleanout shall be part of said (100) one hundred-foot calculation.
No lateral shall be constructed across the private property of others unless specifically
approved by the Utility.
No tap-in off laterals will be permitted, except for appurtenant structures associated with a
private residence to be used as a guesthouse, garage, etc. These can be tapped into the
main structure lateral.
No building may have plumbing located in the basement or below first floor level connected
for gravity flow without positive assurance of adequate flow to main. Sewage ejectors, lift
pumps and backwater valves with a gate valve may be required to direct, control and
maintain the proper discharge and prevent backflow through the sewer.
If a tap-in lateral has been abandoned, a new application is required for approval to re-
connect.
Property abandoned over five (5) years will be treated as if no previous improvements had
ever been made.
When applicant considers the sewer is ready for use, a final inspection must be requested
from the Utility Engineering Department. The Utility or Building Commission inspector will
inform the plumber or his representative, in writing, when the sewer has been approved.
The sewer can be put into service upon final inspection and approval.
After approval of the sewer connection by the Utility, where clean-outs are installed, all
lines between the sewer main and property line clean-out will become the responsibility of
13
the Utility and the cost of any repair, including street and sidewalk removal and
replacement, shall be borne by the Utility.

contractor shall furnish all labor, tools and equipment necessary to make the tests and
to perform any work incidental thereto. The Contractor shall take all necessary
precautions to prevent dislodging of plugs and caps; damage to the joints or other
damage to the system while the lines of their appurtenances are being tested. He
shall, at his own expense, repair any damage to the pipeline and its appurtenances or
to any structure resulting from the testing. If any section fails the test, it shall be
repaired and re-tested at the contractor’s expense, until the measured leakage is within
the allowable limits.
16
An Inspector or representative of the Sewer Engineering Department shall be present
during the testing procedures to record the results.
Length of line tested at one time shall be limited to the length between successive
manholes and/or cleanouts.
The Contractor shall follow the preparation and safety guidelines laid out in the ASTM
standards for low-pressure air test.
PART 1 - GENERAL
Provide all labor, materials, equipment and services required for manhole vacuum testing
specified herein.
PART 2 - EXECUTION
A. This specification shall govern the vacuum testing of sanitary sewer manholes and
structures and shall be used as a method of determining acceptability by the
Engineering Inspector, in accepting maintenance of a sanitary sewer manhole or
structure on behalf of the public. Vacuum testing shall be according to ASTM
C1244, except as specified otherwise herein. Other forms of testing of some
manholes may be required, as deemed necessary by the Engineering Inspector.
B.
At least twenty-five percent (25%) of the total sanitary sewer manholes and other
structures on each project shall be vacuum tested as specified herein. Manholes to
be tested shall be selected by the Engineering Inspector at the time of testing. No
advance notice will be provided to the Contractor as to which manholes will be
tested. If more than ten percent (10%) of the manholes tested fail the initial test, an
additional twenty-five percent (25%) of the total manholes shall be tested. This
process shall continue until a series of manhole (25% of the total) successfully tests
with no more than 10% initial failure or until all manholes have been tested.
The plans may require vacuum testing for specific manholes in areas especially
susceptible to infiltration. The manholes selected for testing by the Engineering
Inspector shall be in addition to the manholes indicated on the plans (i.e. the
manholes indicated on the plans will not count toward the required 25%).
17
1. Lift holes, if any, shall be plugged with an approved, non-shrink grout prior
to testing.
3. The vacuum test shall include testing of the seal between the cast iron
frame and the concrete cone, slab or grade rings.
2. The test head shall be placed inside the rim of the cast iron frame at the top
of the manhole and inflated, in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
3. A vacuum of at least ten inches of mercury (10" Hg) shall be drawn on the
manhole. Shut the valve on the vacuum line to the manhole and shut off the
pump or disconnect the vacuum line from the pump.
4. The pressure gauge shall be liquid filled, having a 3.5-inch diameter face
with a reading from zero to thirty inches of mercury.
5. The manhole shall be considered to pass the vacuum test if the vacuum
reading does not drop more than 1" Hg (i.e. from 10" Hg to 9" Hg) during the
following minimum test times.
18
Minimum Test Times for Various Manhole Diameters
6. If a manhole fails the vacuum test, the manhole shall be repaired with a non-
shrinkable grout or other material or method approved by the Engineering
Inspector. The manhole surfaces shall be properly prepared prior to any
repairs. Once the repair material has cured according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations the vacuum test shall be repeated. This process shall
continue until a satisfactory test is obtained.
7. All temporary plugs and braces shall be removed after each test.
a. Scope
I. This test method provides procedures for testing plastic pipe sewer
lines, using low-pressure air to prove the integrity of the installed
19
material and the construction procedures. Two procedures are
included to find the rate of air leakage-the constant-pressure method
and the time-pressure drop method
II. This test method shall be performed on lines after all connections
and service laterals have been plugged and braced adequately to
withstand the test pressure. The time between completion of the
backfill operation and low-pressure air testing may be specified by
the approving authority.
III. This test method also may be used as a preliminary test, which
enables the installer to show the condition of a buried line prior to
final backfill, paving, and other construction activities.
b. Methodology
c. Disclaimer
B. Referenced Documents
20
Pipe Diameter, in. Pipe Length (feet)
N. Deflection Tests: The sanitary sewer shall pass a deflection test as follows:
Deflection tests shall be performed on all flexible pipe. The test shall be conducted
after final backfill has been in place at least thirty (30) days. The contractor shall
furnish all labor, tools and equipment necessary to make the tests and to perform any
work incidental thereto. The contractor shall take all necessary precautions to prevent
dislodging of plugs and caps or damage to the system while the lines and their
appurtenances are being tested. He shall, at his own expense, repair any damage to
the pipeline and its appurtenances or to any structure resulting from the testing. If the
section tested fails the test, it shall be repaired and re-tested at the contractor’s
expense, until the deflection is within allowable limits.
Length of line tested at one time shall be limited to the length between successive
manholes and/or clean-outs.
If the deflection test is to be run using a rigid ball or mandrel, it shall have a diameter
equal to 95 percent of the inside diameter of the pipe. The test shall be performed
without use of a mechanical pulling device.
The Utility shall have the right to test the deflection detection device in regards to its
proper size using a proofing ring, and shall make the final determination as to whether
it is of sufficient size.
O. Building Elevations: Every building to be served by the Sanitary Sewer System shall
have its plumbing and building floor elevations designed to prevent property damage
caused by municipal backups, i.e. the plumbing in the basement shall be lifted up by
sump pumps or sewage pumps and first floor elevations should be higher than top of
the upstream manhole elevation. The developer shall provide for this requirement in
selling the lots.
21
P. Easements: The Water and Sewer Utility Department prefers that the main sewer be
located behind the curb in the street right -of-way. When the sewer is constructed in an
easement, the minimum easement width should be calculated 1.0 x maximum depth of
sewer + 2 feet with a minimum width of 12 feet. The Sanitary Sewer should lie no
closer than one half of the depth from the edge of the easement. All other utilities also
shall be located away from the sanitary sewer to allow for future maintenance of the
sanitary sewer.
P. Minimum Depth: The minimum cover over any sewer pipe shall be three (3) feet, to
prevent any pipe damage due to frost heave.
22
In addition to those recommended standards specified by the “Recommended Standards
for Sewage Works” (Ten State Standards), the following minimum standards for
wastewater lift station design and installation have been adopted by the Evansville Water &
Sewer Utility.

APPENDIX L‐3
Vanderburgh County Grease Inspector SOP
Vanderburgh County Grease Inspector
Individual will be responsible for conducting inspections at all food preparation establishments in the
Vanderburgh County area.
Inspector will become familiar with the location, size, and number of grease traps at various
establishments and develop a database of this information.
Inspectors will make visual observations of kitchen areas and ask questions on how handling of
grease and food wastes is accomplished. Inspector will collect information from the on-site
manager or person in charge which will include name and other contact pertinent specifics.
Inspector will provide assistance to establishment personnel on the proper handling and
disposal of waste products.
Inspectors will review grease trap cleaning schedules/logs to make sure they are being filled out
and that proper signing off has been documented.
Inspector will review pumping manifest for those establishments having larger outdoor grease
traps. Notations should be made on the amount of material that is hauled away. Obtain copies
of the most recent pumpings since the last inspection was completed.
Inspector may open and make visual observations of the grease trap conditions. It is
encouraged that you seek the assistance of on-site personnel to accomplish this task. Notes
should be made on thickness of grease cap, unusual floating debris in the grease cap, and if
possible (through an effluent observation port on the trap) note if there appears to be an oily
sheen being discharged to the sanitary sewer. If there appears to be a sheen exiting the trap,
inspector should ask that the trap be immediately cleaned and that a more frequent cleaning
schedule be immediately implemented and documented.
Inspect any outdoor grease/oil storage areas for signs of proper handling and that any spills in
the area cannot make there way to storm sewer inlets. Suggest diking or other means to prevent
material loss. If there are signs or poor or improper handling, inspect near by storm sewer inlet
for signs of grease infiltration or any oily sheen on the water surface.

RootX
Directions for Use
FDU 100 and FDU 200
RootX Application Overview
1. Determine proper bypass orifice size to ensure proper water to chemical mixture.
2. Drive jetter truck to downstream manhole.
3. Jet the cleaner hose to upstream manhole.
4. Take Foam Dispersal Unit (FDU), Tripod & RootX chemical to upstream manhole.
5. Pull jetter hose out of manhole onto the street.
6. Mix the RootX chemical.
7. Set up the Tripod over manhole and clamp FDU in the Tripod.
8. Fill FDU with RootX chemical using the Transfer Tube, O-Rings and Locking Pin.
9. Put the spray nozzle back into FDU using Locking Pin. Attach FDU to jetter hose on the
street.
10. Lower FDU into upstream manhole, by pulling hose back dry until FDU spray nozzle is
sitting in the trough.
11. Turn on water at jetter truck on idle and make sure RootX is spraying out of FDU.
12. Pull the FDU back to truck at suggested pull back rate depending on which FDU is being
used.
13. At the downstream manhole pull the FDU out of manhole.
14. Detach the FDU from leader hose.
15. Take spray nozzle off FDU.
• CAUTION - Do not remove the spray nozzle of FDU if hose is rigid, this means CO2 gas has built up
and needs to release. Leave the spray nozzle in, and allow it to sit until the pressure decreases.
16. Put leader hose in FDU opening to rinse out RootX chemical and wash into manhole.
17. Make sure excess water is drained out of FDU and go to next root treatment site.
Make sure to read more detailed FDU directions below:
How to determine correct orifice size
Use a clean, empty 5-gallon bucket to determine the Gallons Per Minute(GPM) at idle speed on your
jetter truck or trailer. To do this, first turn your pump on at idle engine speed and fill the 5 gallon bucket
to the top using the jetter hose without a nozzle, utilizing a watch or stopwatch to time this operation.
Repeat this operation to double check that the timing is accurate. (Note – some engines will spit and
sputter for a few seconds when first started. This could lead to an inaccurate timing). Next, refer to the
chart below to determine which proper orifice size to use. Remember you need to recalibrate everytime
you use the FDU on a different Jetter unit or after your pump has been reworked. Call the RootX company
with this orifice size and the orifice will be placed in the FDU for you and shipped to your location or you
can change the orifice yourself by simply using a 5/16 allen wrench.

1. Preparation for application
After determining the correct orifice size for the FDU 100 or FDU 200, take the FDU along with the
RootX chemical to the upstream manhole. Place the jetter hose with the cleaner nozzle into the
downstream manhole as you would in a normal cleaning operation, and send the hose with the cleaning
nozzle to the upstream manhole where the RootX application will begin. Once the cleaner nozzle has
reached the upstream manhole, pull the hose out of the manhole and lay it on the ground and remove
the cleaner nozzle`.
You should now have your cleaner hose, RootX chemical bags, FDU with foam dispersal nozzle, plastic
locking pin, transfer tube and o-rings at the upstream manhole where the RootX application will begin.
Suggestions: To prevent having to enter a manhole to retrieve the jetter hose, it is recommended that
a hydraulic hose, 15 – 20 feet in length be used as a leader hose which can be attached to the jetter hose.
Attach the cleaner nozzle to the leader hose and send it to the upstream manhole, where the RootX
application will begin. When the nozzle reaches the manhole, use a long pole with a hook on the end to
pull the leader hose out of the manhole. This makes retrieval of the cleaner hose much easier and does
not require that someone enter the manhole to retrieve the hose. Another suggestion is that the jetter
operator introduces slack in the jetter hose, which will make it easier to retrieve at the upstream
manhole.
2. Mixing the RootX chemical
While wearing rubber gloves open the RootX 40 lb box which contains two twenty pound bags of RootX
chemical. The FDU’s are designed to hold one 20 lb bag of RootX chemical, which is sufficient to treat up
to 400 feet of 8 – 18 inch pipe.
Take one 20 lb RootX bag and remove the plastic thumb release tie in the middle of the bag which
separates the two dry components, the white chemical A and the brown chemical B. Be careful not to
puncture or tear the bag during this process. After you have removed the plastic tie, grab each end of the
bag and mix the chemicals by shaking the bag vigorously from side to side. A proper mixture has been
achieved when both chemicals A and B form a tan mixture of white and brown chemicals. This process
should take approximately two minutes.
Warning: A carbon dioxide (CO2) build-up will occur during the mixing process. In the event that a
bag should become so full of CO2 gas that it may break, you should open a small hole in the end of the
bag to release the gas. Continue the mixing process until you achieve a proper mixture.
3. Attaching the transfer tube
After a proper mixture has been achieved, open the end of the narrow part of the bag with either
scissors or a knife. Open just the end where the bag has been sealed. Take the transfer tube which has a
single groove at one end and two grooves at the other end, and insert it into the opening that you have
created, single groove end first. Then place the rubber o-rings over the bag and into the grooves which
the bag material is covering, leaving one groove exposed and uncovered on the outside of the bag. The
exposed groove will be used in locking the transfer tube into the FDU with the plastic locking pin.
4. Putting RootX chemical into the FDU
You should now have a bag of the RootX chemical mixed to form a tan color and a transfer tube
attached to the narrow end of the chemical bag. Take the transfer tube and slip it into the FDU where the
foam dispersal nozzle fits. Take the plastic locking pin and insert it into the locking hole. Push the plastic
locking pin in as far as it will go. Lift the bag slowly, letting the chemical flow through the transfer tube
into the FDU. Tap both the chemical bag and the FDU occasionally to make sure that you have proper flow
and that the chemical is settled into the FDU.
After completion of the transfer of the RootX chemical to the FDU, pull out the plastic locking pin and
remove the transfer tube from the FDU. Then insert the foam dispersal nozzle into the FDU and lock it
into place with the plastic locking pin.
Remove the rubber o-rings from the transfer tube and pull the transfer tube out of the narrow end of
the bag. Be sure to save your transfer tube and rubber o-rings for future applications. Dispose of the
chemical bag by depositing in a sanitary land fill or incineration if allowed by state and local authorities.
5. Application
The FDU should now be filled with 20 pounds of RootX chemical. Attach the jetter hose to the inlet end
of the FDU. Slowly reel in the jetter hose while lowering the FDU into the manhole. Once the FDU is
lowered into the manhole, the jetter operator should be signaled to start the water. The cleaner should
only run at idle speed for the application of RootX. The worker at the upstream manhole should verify
that the foam spray is emitting from the nozzle. Once the foam spray has been verified, begin the retrieval
of the applicator at a rate as follows.
Suggestion: Attaching a string to the foam dispersal nozzle end of the FDU will enable the worker at
the upstream manhole to lower the FDU into the hole without entry, while the jetter operator is slowly
retrieving the jetter hose. The string should be attached in such a manner that will not hang up in the pipe
during the foam application.

6. Finished Application
The RootX application is finished when the FDU reaches the downstream manhole. Smaller sized pipes
require gently shaking and pulling the FDU out of the manhole from ground level in order to retrieve the
applicator. After the FDU is removed, unhook the leader hose from the FDU and carefully remove the foam
dispersal nozzle. Then wash out any excess chemical remaining inside the applicator by running the RootX
leader hose up inside the FDU and turning on the water to rinse out the applicator. Make sure that this
wash water goes directly into the sewer through the open manhole. Once the water flows clean, turn off
the water and hang the FDU upside down to drip dry. You are now ready for another RootX
application.
Warning: Once you remove the FDU from the manhole, if it seems clogged or under pressure DO NOT
remove the foam dispersal nozzle. Disconnect the jetter truck hose and allow the applicator to rest until
the pressure has dissipated. Then carefully remove the foam dispersal nozzle and rinse out the
applicator, allowing the wash water to go into the sewer.
Direct Application
RootX is a very flexible product, not only can it be applied in conjunction with a jetter truck, but it can
also be applied by pouring the self-foaming RootX directly into the pipeline. The following is the method
of Direct Application or pouring RootX directly into the pipeline.
1. Take a 40-pound box of RootX, which contains the two pre-packaged 20-pound chemical bags. Both
components in these bags should be mixed so that the proper foaming action is created. This is done
by releasing the plastic thumb tie which separates the white chemical A and the brown chemical B.
Shake the bags back and forth vigorously until the brown and white components are thoroughly
mixed.
2. After a thorough mixture is achieved pour the RootX chemical directly into the upstream manhole.
Follow the pouring of the chemical with 20-30 gallons of water. The water activates the foaming
action of RootX. The foam, acting as a carrying agent, will fill the pipe with the root killing chemical. If
there is sufficient existing flow, the foam will then be carried down the pipe. A jetter can be used
downstream to create a vacuum effect and pull the foam down the line if the flow is not sufficient to
carry the foam down the pipe. Run the cleaner nozzle about 100-200 feet up the pipe and then retract
it from the downstream manhole. This creates a vacuum that draws the foam down the pipe.
3. Another effective application of RootX is to pour the RootX directly into the pipe and plug the pipe at
the downstream manhole and soak the roots in the RootX root killing foam for an hour. 40-pounds of
RootX poured directly into the pipeline will effectively treat 300 feet of 8” – 10” pipeline.

Lift Station Assessment RQDWWDFKHG&'
November 29, 2012
Jacobi, Toombs and Lanz, Inc. has provided a Power Outage Response Plan (PORP) to the
Evansville Water and Sewer Utility (EWSU) for its Capacity, Management, Operations and
Maintenance (CMOM) Programs 2.0, 2.1 and 3.0. The PORP for each CMOM Program, when
combined, encompass EWSU’s PORP for all 90 pumping stations in the Sewer System. The
PORP addressed the redundancy of pumps and electrical power supply, and in its development
the use of storage capacity, emergency pumping capability (redundant utility connection or
portable in-place back-up power supply), high level overflows, and equipment requirements
were considered for each pump station.
Emergency pumping station equipment is stored at the West Wastewater Treatment Plant
(WWTP). EWSU crews will obtain the necessary equipment to respond to the alarm from either
the West WWTP or from a rental company. Two rental companies had been listed in the
previous submittals to EWSU. EWSU has recently made arrangements with an additional rental
company to provide emergency pumping capability. This provides additional system reliability.
It is recommended that the attached “Preferred Pumping Vendors Insert” be placed in front of
Figure 1 in each of the CMOM Assessment Manuals and in front of each individual pump station
PORP.
Two diesel 6 inch, 1,960 gpm (2.8 MGD) portable pumps are currently available to provide
emergency pumping capability. An 80kw portable electrical generator is stored at the WWTP,
and can be hardwired into the stations that cannot be bypass pumped. Efforts are currently
underway to install an electrical plug-in outlet at all pumping stations that now must be
hardwired to connect the portable electrical generator. It is expected that all pump stations will
have this “plug-in” capability by year-end 2013. The Schutte Road pumping station is currently
being upgraded and the selection of pumps has not been determined at this time. If pumps are
chosen whose power requirements exceed that of the existing portable generator’s capacity, then

it is recommended that a higher rated electrical portable generator be acquired. The availability
of a new generator will increase the overall reliability of the system.
EWSU currently has adequate emergency response capability to prevent SSOs at all but one of
its 90 pumping stations, that being the Ohio Street LS. The Ohio Street lift station assessment
and final determination of station improvements will be included in the Advanced Facility Plan
for the Seventh Avenue lift station as identified in the Integrated Overflow Control Plan. In all
but the one Ohio Street Pumping Station, the PORP is consistent with the Ten State Standards
and is sufficient to operate EWSU’s pumping stations at their rated capacity, as well as operate
all ancillary equipment and instrumentation necessary to prevent releases.
