Electro scanning of sewer mains and laterals is changing the expectation the fundamental expectations for municipal Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study (SSES) projects. Ranked as a superior assessment practice compared to CCTV, electro scan is now being included as both a key field evaluation tool and as a post-rehabilitation technique, especially in the case of relining and chemical grouting.
Municipal sewer utilities are now recommended to include the following services as part of their next SSES project, including:
1. Feasibility studies and engineering economic analyses
2. Associated infiltration and inflow (I/I) analyses
3. Recommendations for correcting defects in areas of the system sub-basins, which contain extraneous flows and require repairs
4. Trunk, collector and relief sewer design as required
5. Sanitary sewer hydraulic modeling, with SSO analysis and abatement
6. Recommendations for upgrade of system capacity, to meet future demand
7. Surveying and GPS location of facilities
8. Easement plat preparation as required
9. Electro scanning of all sewer mains
10. Electro scanning of all sewer laterals from agency cleanout.
11. Preparation of federal, state, and local permitting as required
12. Assistance with public information programs related to the Agency’s rehabilitation efforts
13. Preparation of plans and specifications, bidding assistance, contract administration, and post-rehabilitiation certification of all repairs, upon the Agency’s request, for specific projects involving additions, modifications, replacement, and certification of repairs, of the Agency’s existing sanitary sewer facilities
14. Data from all assessment testing to be available via a password protected web-based application, able to compare current tests with previous digital records on the same pipe segment
15. Construction management services as requested
To assist engineering firms in support their municipal clients, Electro Scan Inc. is available, on an advisory basis. Professional services are available for technical support of all electro scanning assessments, including data collection, analysis, integration support with GIS & Hydraulic Modeling, comparitive reporting with previous legacy CCTV and Smoket Testing inspections, and for post-rehabilitation certification of repair work.
Strategic partnership arrangements are also available to integrate Electro Scan’s CloudConnect™ Smartphone application and Critical Sewers™ Cloud Computing application as part of your delivered services pacakge for municipal and investor-owned sewer utilities.
