City of San Leandro <br />Sewer System Management Plan <br />Volume I <br /> <br />Page | 24 <br /> <br /> <br />Section 5 – Design and Performance Provisions <br />D.13.(v) Design and Performance Provisions: <br />(a) Design and construction standards and specifications for the installation of new sanitary sewer <br />systems, pump stations and other appurtenances; and for the rehabilitation and repair of existing <br />sanitary sewer systems; and <br />(b) Procedures and standards for inspecting and testing the installation of new sewers, pumps, and <br />other appurtenances and for rehabilitation and repair projects. <br />Standards for Installation, Rehabilitation and Repair <br />The City, through its Engineering Department, maintains a document that contains a set of <br />wastewater and sewer system design standards (City Standard Specifications and Drawings or <br />“Standard Specifications” – see Appendix B). These standard specifications are a comprehensive <br />set of standards that cover all sewage or wastewater facilities in the City. <br />The City’s Code Ordinance requires that the standard specifications be followed in the <br />construction of new installations, and rehabilitation and/or replacement of existing facilities. <br />They are available to contractors and the general public at no charge and are updated <br />periodically, as necessary. A copy is also available from the City’s website. <br />Standards for Inspection and Testing of New and Rehabilitated Facilities <br />The City has full-time Construction Inspectors who inspect both new construction and repairs. <br />The inspector insures all construction meets the City’s standard specifications and other <br />applicable codes. Permits are required for all work on wastewater facilities in the City, and no <br />facility is accepted unless it is permitted, inspected, and tested in accordance with the standard <br />specifications. <br /> <br /> <br />111
