They were finishing a sanitary sewer service replacement at the referenced address. Scott explained that there was some confusion with which sanitation district held jurisdiction and that is why he was calling at the end of the work. He asked if I could come out to the address immediately to inspect the service line, but I was unable to do so as I was leaving work for the day. I asked him to email me pictures and to install a WYE connection at the main. He agreed.

The project is already backfilled & compacted. We believe a TEE connection will still function adequately despite being outside of specifications.
