13.12.160 Taps--Standards and procedures.
Whenever it becomes necessary to connect a house sewer to a public sewer at a point where no special "Y" or "T" branch has been installed in the public sewer, the connection must be made in the presence of an inspector and in the following manner:
A. In all public sewers of twelve inches or less in internal diameter and of ten feet or less in depth, the connection must be made by removing a section of the existing sanitary sewer and inserting a "Y" branch.
B. In public sewers of from eight inches to twelve inches, inclusive in internal diameter, and not more than ten feet in depth, or of fourteen inches of more in internal diameter at any depth, it will be permissible to cut the existing pipe and insert a standard saddle. The saddle must be fitted snugly against the exterior wall of the public sewer pipe and fastened in place by heavy galvanized asphalt-coated wire, which shall be bound around the main line pipe. A foundation of cement concrete shall then be placed under and around the saddle in the manner required and directed by the inspector. (Ord. 576, 2008; Ord. 199 §10, 1975. Formerly 13.12.110).
