New sanitary sewers and all extensions to sanitary sewers owned and operated by any Town sewer district shall be designed by a professional licensed to practice sewer design in the state in accordance with the Recommended Standards for Sewage Works, as adopted by the Great Lakes - Upper Mississippi River Board of State Sanitary Engineers ("Ten State Standards"), and in strict conformance with all requirements of the NYSDEC, and, in the case of new sewers or extension within Carmel Sewer Districts 1 and 3, the NYCDEP. Plans and specifications shall be submitted to, and written approval shall be obtained from the Superintendent, the Putnam County Health Department, and the NYSDEC, before initiating any construction. The design shall anticipate and allow flows from all possible future extensions or developments within the immediate drainage area.
A. 
When a property owner, builder, or developer proposes to construct sanitary sewers or extensions to sanitary sewers in an area proposed for subdivision, the plans, specifications, and method of installation shall be subject to the approval of the Superintendent and the Putnam County Health Department, in accordance with § 120-27. Said property owner, builder, or developer shall pay for the entire installation, including a proportionate share of the treatment plant, intercepting or trunk sewers, pumping stations, force mains, and all other Town expenses incidental thereto. Each street lateral shall be installed and inspected pursuant to Article VI, and inspection fees shall be paid by the applicant prior to initiating construction. Design and installation of sewers shall be as specified in § 120-29, and in conformance with Paragraphs 3 through 6 of ASTM Specification C-12. The installation of the sewer shall be subject to periodic inspection by the Superintendent, without prior notice. The Superintendent shall determine whether the work is proceeding in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, and whether the completed work will conform with the approved plans and specifications. The sewer, as constructed, must pass the infiltration test (or the exfiltration test, with prior approval), required in § 120-31, before any building lateral is connected thereto. The Superintendent shall be notified 30 days in advance of the start of any construction actions so that such inspection frequencies and procedures as may be necessary or required, may be established. No new sanitary sewers will be accepted by the Town Board until such construction inspections have been made so as to assure the Town Board of compliance with this chapter and any amendments or additions thereto. The Superintendent has the authority to require such excavation as necessary to inspect any installed facilities if the facilities were covered or otherwise backfilled before they were inspected so as to permit inspection of the construction. The Superintendent shall report all findings of inspections and tests to the Town Board.
B.

(13) 
No structure shall be undercut unless specifically approved by the Superintendent.
(14) 
Proper devices shall be provided, and maintained operational at all times, to remove all water from the trench as it enters. At no time shall the sewer line be used for removal of water from the trench.
(15) 
To protect workers and to prevent caving, shoring and sheeting shall be used, as needed. Caving shall not be used to backfill the trench. Sheeting shall not be removed but cut off no lower than one foot above the pipe crown nor no higher than one foot below final grade, and left in the trench, during backfill operations.
(16) 
The pipe barrel shall be supported, along its entire length, on a minimum of six inches of crusher run maximum 1/2 inch stone free of organic material. This foundation shall be firmly tamped in the excavation.
(17)

All sections shall be cast solid, without lifting holes. Flat top slabs shall be a minimum of eight inches thick and shall be capable of supporting an H-20 loading.
F. 
All joints between sections shall be sealed with an O-ring rubber gasket, meeting the same specifications as pipe joint gaskets, or butyl joint sealant completely filling the joint.
G. 
All joints shall be sealed against infiltration. All metal parts shall be thickly coated with bitumastic or elastomeric compound to prevent corrosion.
H. 
No steps or ladder rungs shall be installed in the inside or outside manhole walls at any time.
I. 
No holes shall be cut into the manhole sections closer than six inches to joint surfaces.
J. 
Manholes which extend above grade shall not have an eccentric top section. The top plate shall be large enough to accommodate the cover lifting device and the cover.
K. 
The elevation of the top section shall be such that the cover frame top elevation is 0.5 foot above the one-hundred-year-flood elevation (in a field), 0.5 foot above a lawn elevation, or at finished road or sidewalk grade.
L. 
When located in a traveled area (road or sidewalk), the manhole frame and cover shall be heavy duty cast iron. When located in a lawn or in a field, the manhole frame and cover may be light duty cast iron. The cover shall be 36 inches in diameter. The minimum combined weight of the heavy duty frame and the cover shall be 735, plus or minus 5%, pounds. The minimum combined weight of the light duty frame and the cover shall be 420, plus or minus 5%, pounds. The mating surfaces shall be machined, and painted with tar pitch varnish. The cover shall not rock in the frame. Infiltration between the cover and frame shall be prevented by proper design and painting. Covers shall have "sanitary sewer" cast into them. Covers shall have lifting holes suitable for any lifting/jacking device. The lifting holes shall be designed so that infiltration is prevented.
M. 
A drop of at least 0.1 foot shall be provided between incoming and outgoing sewers on all junction manholes and on manholes with bends greater than 45°.
N. 
Inverts and shelves/benches shall be placed after testing the manholes and sewers.
O. 
Benches shall be level and slope to the flow channel at about one inch per foot.
P. 
The minimum depth of the flow channel shall be the nominal diameter of the smaller pipe. The channel shall have a steel trowel finish. The flow channel shall have a smooth curvature from inlet to outlet.
Q. 
Manhole frames, installed at grade, shall be set in a full bed of mortar with no less than two nor more than four courses of brick underneath to allow for later elevation adjustment. In lieu of brick, grade rings may be used for elevation adjustment. Grade rings shall not exceed six inches in depth. The total number of grade rings shall not exceed 12 inches in height, however, in no event shall more than three grade rings be used.
R. 
Manholes which extend above grade shall have the frames cast into the manhole top plate. The top plate shall be securely anchored to the manhole barrel, by a minimum of 6 1/2 inch corrosion resistant anchor bolts, to prevent overturning when the cover is removed. The anchor bolts shall be electrically isolated from the manhole frame and cover.
S. 
Internal drop pipes and fittings shall be PVC plastic sewer pipe in compliance with ASTM D2241. Corrosion resistant anchors shall be used to attach the drop pipe to the inside surface of the manhole barrel.
A. 
All sanitary sewers or extensions to sanitary sewers, including manholes, shall satisfy requirements of a final infiltration test before they will be approved and wastewater flow permitted by the Town. The infiltration rate shall not exceed 25 gallons per 24 hours per mile per one-inch nominal diameter. An exfiltration test may be substituted for the infiltration test; the same rate shall not be exceeded. The exfiltration test shall be performed by the applicant, under the supervision of the Superintendent, who shall have the responsibility for making proper and accurate measurements required. The exfiltration test consists of filling the pipe with water to provide a head of at least five feet above the top of the pipe or five feet above groundwater, whichever is higher, at the highest point under test, and then measuring the loss of water, from the pipe section under test, by the amount of water which must be added to maintain the original level. However, under no circumstances shall the head at the downstream manhole exceed 10 feet or fill to within six inches of the top of the downstream manhole. Should this condition prevail, the testing methods in §§ 120-31F and/or 120-31G shall be utilized. In this test, the test section must remain filled with water for at least 24 hours prior to taking any measurements. Exfiltration shall be measured by the drop of water level in a standpipe with a closed bottom end, or in one of the sewer manholes serving the test section. When a standpipe and plug arrangement is used in the upper manhole in the test section, there shall be some positive method for releasing entrapped air prior to taking any measurements.
B. 
Test section. The test section shall be as ordered or as approved, but in no event longer than 1,000 feet. In the case of sewers laid on steep grades, the test length may be limited by the maximum allowable internal pressure on the pipe and joints at the lower end of the test section. For purposes of determining the leakage rate of the test section, manholes shall be considered as sections of forty-eight-inch-diameter pipe, five feet long. The maximum allowable leakage rate for such a section is 1.1 gallons per 24 hours. If leakage exceeds the allowable rate, then necessary repairs or replacements shall be made, and the section retested.
C. 
Test period. The test period, during which the test measurements are taken, shall not be less than two hours.
D. 
Pipe lamping. Prior to testing, the section shall be lamped. Any length of pipe out of straight alignment shall be realigned.
E. 
Deflection testing. Also prior to testing, all plastic pipe, in the test section, shall be tested for deflection. Deflection testing shall involve the pulling of a rigid ball or mandrel, whose diameter is 95% of the pipe inside diameter, through the pipe. Any length of pipe with a deflection greater than 5% shall be replaced. The test section shall be flushed just prior to deflection testing. The test shall not be performed with a mechanical pulling device.
F. 
Low-pressure air testing alternative.
(1) 
In lieu of hydrostatic testing (exfiltration or infiltration), low-pressure air testing may be employed. Low-pressure air tests shall conform to ASTM Specification C 828. All sections to be tested shall be cleaned and flushed, and shall have been backfilled, prior to testing. Air shall be added until the internal pressure of the test section is raised to approximately 4.0 PSIG. The air pressure test shall be based on the time, measured in seconds, for the air pressure to drop from 3.5 PSIG to 2.5 PSIG.
(2) 
Acceptance is based on limits tabulated in the Specification Time Required for a 1.0 PSIG Pressure Drop in the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association Recommended Practice for Low-Pressure Air Testing of Installed Sewer Pipe. Before pressure is applied to the line all connections shall be firmly plugged. Before the test period starts, the air shall be given sufficient time to cool to ambient temperature in the test section. If the test section is below groundwater, the test pressure shall be increased an amount sufficient to compensate for groundwater hydrostatic pressure, however, the test pressure shall not exceed 10 PSI. The pressure test gauge shall have been recently calibrated, and a copy of the calibration results shall be made available to the Superintendent prior to testing.
G. 
Vacuum testing alternative.
(1) 
In lieu of hydrostatic testing (exfiltration or infiltration), vacuum testing may be employed for testing of sewer lines and manholes. Sewer lines and manholes shall be tested separately. All sewer lines to be tested shall be cleaned and flushed, and shall have been backfilled, prior to testing. The vacuum test shall be based on the time, measured in seconds, for the vacuum to decrease from 10 inches of mercury to nine inches of mercury for manholes, and from seven inches of mercury to six inches of mercury for sewers.
(2) 
Acceptance of manholes is based on the following:
Manhole Depth
(feet)
Manhole Diameter
(feet)
Time to Drop 1 inch Hg
(10 inches to 9 inches)
10 or less
4
120 seconds
10 to 15
4
150 seconds
15 to 25
4
180 seconds
For five-foot diameter manholes, add 30 seconds to the times above.
For six-foot diameter manholes, add 60 seconds to the times above.
(3) 
If the test on the manhole fails (the time is less than that tabulated above), necessary repairs shall be made and the vacuum test repeated, until the manhole passes the test.
(4) 
Acceptance of sewers (seven inches Hg to six inches Hg) is based on the time tabulated in the Specification Time Required for a 0.5 PSIG Pressure Drop in the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association Recommended Practice for Low-Pressure Air Testing of Installed Sewer Pipe.
(5) 
The vacuum test gauge shall have been recently calibrated, and a copy of the calibration results shall be made available to the Superintendent prior to testing.

(8) 
When the daily average design detention time in the force main exceeds 20 minutes, the manhole and sewer line receiving the force main discharge or the sewage shall be treated so that corrosion of the manhole and the exiting line are prevented. The corrosion is caused by sulfuric acid biochemically produced from hydrogen sulfide anaerobically produced in the force main.
(9) 
The force main shall terminate, in the receiving manhole, at a PVC plastic sewer pipe "T." The vertical arms of the "T" shall be twice the diameter of the force main. The upper arm shall be at least four feet long; the lower arm shall terminate in a PVC plastic sewer pipe 90° elbow in a flow channel directed to the manhole exit pipe. The "T" and its arms shall be securely fastened to the inside surface of the manhole wall using corrosion resistant anchors.
B. 
Force main testing. All force mains shall be subjected to hydrostatic pressure of 150% of the normal operating pressure. The duration of the test, at pressure, shall be at least two hours. Before conducting the test, the pipe shall be filled with water and all air shall be expelled. During the test, water shall be added, as needed, to maintain the test pressure. The amount of water added shall be recorded so as to calculate leakage. Leakage shall not exceed 25 gallons per day per mile per inch nominal pipe diameter. During the test, the owner and the Superintendent shall walk the route of the force main and examine the exposed pipe and the ground covering any backfilled pipe to discover leaks. Leakage in excess of that specified above shall be corrected with new material at the owner's expense and the test repeated. Any observed leaks shall be repaired at the owner's expense.
All sanitary sewers and extensions to sanitary sewers constructed at the applicant's expense, after final approval and acceptance by the Superintendent, and concurrence by the Town Board, shall become the property of the Town, and shall thereafter be operated and maintained by the Town. No sanitary sewer shall be accepted by the Town until four copies of as-built drawings have been so filed with the Superintendent and the Superintendent has approved the submitted drawings. Said sewers, after their acceptance by the Town, shall be guaranteed against defects in materials or workmanship for one year by the applicant. The guarantee shall be in such form and contain such provision as deemed necessary by the Town Board, secured by a surety bond or such other security as the Town Board may approve.
