Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe infiltration of water in sanitary sewer systems through the

3、 lateral service connection and the firstfew joints of the lateral below the groundwater table is a major problem for collection system owners.The combined length of the lateral services often exceeds the length of the mainline sewers. Often, thelateral services have been built with little or no sup

4、ervision and little or no above-ground access formonitoring and inspection.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedures for testing andsealing sewer lateral connections and lateral lines from themainline sewer with appropriate chemical grouts using thelateral packer method. Chemical grouting is u

5、sed to stopinfiltration of ground water and exfiltration of sewage ingravity flow sewer systems that are structurally sound.1.2 This practice applies to mainline sewer diameters of 6 to24 in. with 4, 5, or 6 in. diameter laterals. Larger diameter pipeswith lateral connections and lines can be groute

6、d with specialpackers or man-entry methods. The mainline and lateral pipesmust be structurally adequate to create an effective seal.1.3 Worker safety training should include reviewing thebiohazards and gases from sewage, confined spaces, pumpingequipment, and related apparatus. Additional safety con

7、sider-ations including proper handling, mixing, and transporting ofchemical grouts should be provided by the chemical groutmanufacturer or supplier, or both. Their safe operating prac-tices and procedures should describe in detail appropriatepersonal protective equipment (PPE) for the various grouti

8、ngoperations. Operations covered should include the properstorage, transportation, mixing, and disposal of chemicalgrouts, additives, and their associated containers.1.4 The values stated in inch/pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values in parentheses are for informationonly.1.5 Thi
