Founded in 1995, Compliance EnviroSystems, LLC (CES) focused exclusively on traditional mainline inspections and off-road specialty work. Its team became wellknown for their ability to identify existing issues and prevent future crises in the sewer systems they assessed. In 2015, the company added a new service locating cross bores for natural gas companies. Its first project was with a major contracting partner managing a heavy workload across Louisiana and Texas. The project required a complete inspection of both sewer and lateral lines to ensure the areas were free of dangerous gas line cross bores.

Primary sources of inflow and infiltration (I&I) include leaky manholes, lateral connections and sewer mains–yet too often rehabilitation efforts target assets indiscriminately. And while I&I can account for up to 45% of the throughput at a treatment plant, an analysis-driven strategy to address I&I is seldom discussed. If municipalities identify I&I problem areas, they can address the defects found in a comprehensive manner—adding to their success rate. By implementing a total system approach of inspecting for sources of I&I and then planning rehabilitation efforts accordingly, municipalities can achieve approximately a 50% reduction of I&I.

Infiltration occurs when groundwater seeps into sewer pipes through cracks, leaky pipe

joints and/or deteriorated manholes. Inflow is stormwater that enters the sewer system

through rain leaders, basement sump pumps or foundation drains illegally connected to

the sewer. The impact on treatment and maintenance costs is substantial, and many

wastewater crews prioritize identifying and mitigating sources of inflow and infiltration

(I&I) in their systems.

An increasing number of municipalities and gas utilities are looking towards cross bore

The inspection and rehabilitation of sewer pipelines is only one step in minimizing the
flow of otherwise clean water to treatment plants. Manholes are failing at a rate faster
than sewer pipelines. Modern manhole inspections can help municipalities avoid high
treatment costs and expensive regulatory actions; however, they remain the most
overlooked segment of sewer infrastructure in the search for inflow and infiltration (I&I).
