This includes the pumps, liquid level indicators, electrical <br />components, valves, piping and radios. <br />The City also uses cured -in -place pipe lining technology where these methods are cost effective and <br />practical to supplement traditional replacement and rehabilitation methods. The City has adopted the <br />American Public Works Association Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction <br />( "Greenbook ") as its standard specification for sewer projects. The Greenbook specifications for <br />pipeline rehabilitation are used as the standard for City projects. <br />2) Contains procedures and standards for inspecting and testing the installation of new sewers, other <br />appurtenances and for rehabilitation and repair projects. Inspection and testing of new <br />construction is accomplished by trained City Public Works Agency construction inspectors. <br />These inspectors insure that all sewer projects are completed in accordance with the City's <br />standards. <br />April 2014 5 -1 <br />55CC -27 <br />
