NASTT’s Lateral Lining Good Practices Course - Delta, BC
NASTT’s Lateral Lining
Good Practices Course
Wednesday, Dec. 7, 2011
8:30 am to 5:00 pm
Delta Town & Country Inn – Delta, BC
The British Columbia Chapter of the North American Society (NASTT-BC) is pleased to sponsor a special one-day Lateral Lining Good Practices Course, Wednesday, Dec. 7, 2011, at the Delta Town & Country Inn in Delta, British Columbia.
Description: Millions of sewer laterals – the portion of sewer networks that connect individual properties to the public sewer network – exist throughout the United States and Canada. Many laterals have not been maintained and as a result, allow a significant amount of inflow and infiltration (I/I) into sewer systems, which can lead to sanitary sewer overflows, increased costs and damage. Consequently, there is a compelling need to solve I/I problems of sewer laterals.
Course Objective: This course offers a clear understanding of the problems and relevant issues unique to the private lateral portion of the collection system network, explains available options for inspection, evaluation and repair of sewer laterals and address the financial and legal issues that affect the means by which necessary work can be accomplished.
NEW Course Material! The course material has been recently updated to include new technology developments and utility experience in terms of managing the legal and financial issues associated with private lateral sewer programs. Information on the actual savings in I/I reduction being realized through lateral rehabilitation programs will also be presented.
Course Topics: The sewer laterals course covers the following topics: (1) an introductory overview of what sewer laterals are and why they present an important problem; (2) methods of locating and inspecting of laterals, (3) condition assessment and decision-making regarding necessary repairs, options for trenchless rehabilitation or replacement of laterals; (3) bid documents; (4) legal and financial issues. Most attention is given to a detailed description of rehabilitation methods, review of relevant issues (before, during or after construction) and experience gained in case studies.
Who should attend? The target audience is contractors, public works and municipal personnel, consulting engineers, inspectors and industry practitioners.
