What is inflow and infiltration (I&I)?
Inflow and infiltration (I&I) is clear water - such as groundwater and stormwater - that enters the sanitary sewer system.
What can be done to reduce inflow and infiltration?
You can reduce inflow and infiltration by inspecting and repairing sewer laterals, capping cleanouts and checking sump pump discharge points.
What is a private sewer lateral?
Private sewer laterals are pipes that carry wastewater from a property into the sewer system and are the property owner's responsibility.
What is a sump pump?
Water from sump pumps should discharge back into the environment and not into the sanitary sewers otherwise it overloads the system.
