CONDITION ASSESSMENT REPORT
Grassy Branch Collection System
Union County Water
June 2022
I. INTRODUCTION
The Grassy Branch Sewer Collection System has been a concern for Union County Water
for a number of years due to the Grassy Branch Water Reclamation Facility (WRF)
frequently exceeding its capacity. Dating back to 2016, the County has conducted several
flow monitoring studies to quantify the amount of infiltration and inflow (I-1) entering the
system during periods of wet weather. It has also performed several phases of sewer
system evaluation activities including smoke testing, manhole inspections and iTracker
micro -detection studies to identify the exact sources of I -I. It has subsequently repaired
any of these defects that were identified.
At the present time, the County is confident that the problem is simply a lack of capacity
since the average dry weather daily flow rate is very close to the treatment capacity of the
Grassy Branch WRF. Even minor amounts of I -I will cause the WRF to exceed its capacity
and potentially result in sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) in the system. Despite this, the
County decided to perform CCTV inspections of all sewer mains and laterals within the
Grassy Branch collection system to identify any defects that could potentially allow I-1 to
enter the system.
This report presents the findings of these CCTV inspections. The information gathered
during the study has been used to identify specific defects within the system and develop
repair/rehabilitation recommendations with cost estimates in order to assist the County
with reducing I/1 into the collection system.
II. GRASSY BRANCH COLLECTION SYSTEM INVENTORY
The Grassy Branch collection system ends at the WRF just north of Old Fish Road, runs
parallel to Grassy Branch, crosses Unionville Road and Sikes Mill Road to Piedmont
High School and Middle School. (This system also receives sewer via a force main from
Unionville Elementary School) A "Sewer Main Priority Rating Map" is included in
Appendix A and shows the full extent of the gravity collection system and study area.
This collection system includes approximately 30,868 linear feet of gravity sewer. The
mains are a mix of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and ductile iron pipe (DIP). Table 1, below,
lists the footage of each diameter and material of pipe found in the study area.

III. RESULTS OF FIELD INVESTIGATIONS
A. Cleaning and Internal CCTV Inspection
All lines were cleaned using a high -velocity jet / vacuum truck in order to remove debris
and provide an unobstructed view of the pipe surface. After cleaning, the lines were then
visually inspected by means of a closed-circuit television (CCTV) system, which includes
a self-propelled tractor and camera unit. The camera is coupled with an inspection system
containing both digital video recorders, footage counter and a laptop equipped with IT
Pipes video inspection reporting software. Service laterals were inspected using a special
system that "launches" a smaller camera up into the lateral from the main.
For each mainline section or lateral, an inspection log was prepared showing the location
of any structural defects, offset or separated joints, points of infiltration, roots, etc. The log
also shows the location of all service connections and upstream and downstream manhole
numbers. The complete inspection was also recorded on videotape and captured digitally
on MPEG files. A copy of the inspection logs is contained in Appendix B. Digital videos
and digital inspection logs for each line segment are included on Appendix D (thumb
drive).
Once all the lines were cleaned and inspected, the next step was to evaluate each line
and prioritize the lines according to condition severity. Based on our evaluations, each
defect was assigned a priority rating from 1 to 5. The priority rating system uses the
NASSCO Pipeline Assessment and Certification Program (PACP) and Lateral
Assessment Certification Program (LACP) methodology described below.
• Grade 5 — Defects require immediate attention. Pipe has failed or will
likely fail within the next five years
• Grade 4 — Severe defects that will become Grade 5 within the
foreseeable future.
• Grade 3 — Moderate defects that will continue to deteriorate
• Grade 2 — Defects that have not begun to deteriorate.
• Grade 1 — Minor defects.
NASSCO recognizes two families of defects: structural defects and operation and
maintenance (O&M) defects. Structural defects are various types of defects within the
structure of the pipe including cracks, fractures, broken pipe, collapsed pipe, offset or
separated joints, surface damage from expose to hydrogen sulfide gas, etc. Operation
and maintenance defects include deposits (grease, sand), roots, infiltration, obstructions,
etc. that affect the system's ability to operate properly.
NASSCO also assigns each structural and O&M defect with a grade rating corresponding
to the severity of the defect (5 the most severe and 1 the least severe). A grade score is
Page 2 of 14
Grassy Branch — Condition Assessment Report
Union County Water
calculated by multiplying the grade rating by the number of occurrences of that grade
identified throughout the pipe. The grade scores are summed in their appropriate families
(structural and O&M) to calculate the structural defect rating and O&M defect rating. The
overall rating is the sum of structural and O&M defect ratings. Each pipe is also assigned
a quick rating, which is a four -digit number showing the number of occurrences for the
two highest severity grades occurring in that pipe (the number is displayed with the grade
rating first followed by the number of occurrences). For example, if the pipe inspected
has two grade 5 defects and six grade 4 defects the quick rating would be 5246.
Hydrostructures assigns a priority ranking based on the severity of the worst defect
contained in the line. Therefore, a line containing a structural collapse (grade 5) would
be scored as a priority 5. The results of the priority rating process are provided in the
table below.
Zero (0) priority 5, one (1) priority 4, thirty-four (34) priority 3, one (1) priority 2, and ninety-
one (91) priority 1 mainline pipe sections were identified in the collection system (Table
2 below). A "Sewer Main Priority Rating Map" is provided in Appendix A and shows the
location and priority rating for all mainlines inspected as part of this evaluation. CCTV
logs for all pipe segments inspected on the system are included in Appendix B.

Structural Defects
Very few structural defects were identified in the mainline sections. Two sags were identified that
do not require repair. The remaining pipe was found to be in good condition.
Operation and Maintenance Defects and Infiltration
O&M defects include debris, sand, rocks, grease, infiltration, etc. The sewer cleaning removed
most settled / attached debris and deposits. There were very few maintenance defects and only
one mainline joint with infiltration that needs a 4' sectional liner. This joint, between DIP and PVC,
had a small dripper. See photo below.

B. Service Lateral CCTV Inspection
In addition to the PACP inspection of all pipe segments, each service lateral was
inspected and prioritized according to the Lateral Assessment Certification Program
(LACP). Based on our evaluations, each defect was assigned a priority rating from 1 to
5. The priority rating system uses the NASSCO Pipeline Assessment and Certification
Program (PACP) methodology described above.
A total of 132 service laterals were located in the collection system at the time of the
project and all except 3 were inspected. All were PVC and 4-inches in _diameter. A few
had grease, sags, or offset joints, but only one requires repair. Each has been assigned
a priority rating and the summary table is provided below. Zero (0) priority 5, one (1)
priority 4, one (1) priority 3, eleven (11) priority 2, and one hundred sixteen (116) priority
1 service laterals were identified in the collection system (Table 2 below). A "Sewer Main
Priority Rating Map" is provided in Appendix A and shows the location for all service
laterals inspected as part of this evaluation. Inspection logs for all the service laterals are
included in Appendix C.

Only one service lateral needs to be replaced. Signs of infiltration and roots were found
in the lateral that is 81' upstream of manhole 7530; located at 2710 Falling Leaf Court.

IV. ALTERNATIVES EVALUATION
Several methods and technologies are available for the rehabilitation of sewer mains and
service laterals. This section discusses the available and most commonly recommended
/ implemented rehabilitation methods.
A. Manhole Rehabilitation and Repairs
1. Pipe Connection Infiltration
Pipe connections between the manhole wall and the influent and effluent piping
are sometimes found to be sources of infiltration and root intrusion. These
connections may lack a boot (typically older brick manholes) and not be adequately
grouted or the boot was not properly seated and tightened around the pipe during
installation. Infiltration is especially prevalent in deeper manholes, where the
hydrostatic pressure from high groundwater levels can cause significant leaks
through relatively small cracks and holes.
We recommend that leaking pipe connections be sealed by injecting chemical
grout pumped through drilled injection ports into the crack or void from the inside
of the manhole. The grout will penetrate to the exterior of the manhole, where it
will fill any voids and seal the leak from the outside. After the void has been filled
with chemical grout, cementitious grout should be used to seal the pipe connection
from the inside of the manhole.
Estimated Cost: $500.00 per Pipe Connection.
B. Sewer Main Rehabilitation and Repairs
1. Open -Cut Point Repairs
A point repair consists simply of excavating down to a damaged section of pipe
and replacing the damaged section with new pipe. It is used when damage is
isolated to one particular area of the pipe, generally less than twenty feet in length.
It is also used to repair pipe collapses, sags, and/or offset joints prior to manhole -
to -manhole trenchless rehabilitation by CIPP. It can be very disruptive to the
surrounding area, especially if the pipe is deep or underneath pavement. It can
also be extremely expensive depending upon the location and/or depth of the
repair.
Estimated Cost: 8" — 12" = $12,500
15" — 18" = $17,500
*Includes bypass pumping, assumes DIP
2. Internal CIPP Sectional Liner (CIPP Spot Repair)
Sectional cured -in -place spot repairs are ideal for patching holes and other
isolated, non -deformed structural defects. Spot repair patches can be used for
infiltration control when hydrophilic 0-rings or caulk is used between the host pipe

and ends of the repair patch. Most manufactures have repair patches available
up to 42-inches and lengths of 2, 4, and 8-feet are common. Patches are
fiberglass with epoxy resin or typical felt with vinylester resin.
Spot repairs are installed with a flow through bladder. The patch is secured to
the inflatable bladder, pulled into place, the bladder pressurized to form the patch
tightly to the pipe surface and allowed to cure ambiently. Because the bladder is
flow through, little or no flow control is required during installation
Estimated Cost: 8" — 12" = $5,000
15" — 18" = $9,500
C. Service Lateral Rehabilitation and Repairs
The following section discusses service lateral rehabilitation methods including
connecting service laterals to the main line. Cost estimates for each method are
provided based on similar rehabilitation projects.
1. Open -Cut Replacement
This method of repair consists of excavating the defective service lateral and
replacing it with a new lateral within the same trench. This method is the most
cost effective to rehabilitate shallow service laterals in low traffic areas. Although
it obviously requires more excavation, it is the most frequently recommended
method for service rehabilitation. Service lateral replacement is only performed
from the sewer main to the right-of-way (location of the cleanout).
Estimated Cost: $100 per linear foot of service lateral
(If the replacement of the lateral includes the replacement or installation of a
cleanout and reconnection to the main line, the total cost is usually an additional
$2,000 or $3,000.)
2. CIPP Lateral Seal
Full Wrap Lateral Seal rehabilitation is a trenchless service connection
rehabilitation method used to seal leaking service connections and restore
structurally integrity. Full wrap lateral seals are recommended when conflicts or
depth increase the difficulty and cost of excavation. A full wrap later seal includes
a polyester felt tube with a sewn flange that covers up to 16-inches of the mainline
in a full wrap. The use of hydrophilic sealants and silicate resins applied to the
backside of the full warp connection enhances the watertight seal. Typically, this
wrap includes 2-feet of lateral liner to extend up into the service lateral. Ambient
cure polyester or vinylester resins are used. Diameters of 4-inch and 6-inch
service lateral rehabilitation are possible with 8-inch to 24-inch mainline wraps.
During installation, the mainline must be cleaned and free of all debris. Roots and
other debris are removed from the lateral connection. The full wrap lateral seal is
loaded on a silicone bladder lateral train and inserted through the downstream

manhole. When the lateral train reaches the connection (as confirmed by
standard CCTV equipment), the bladder is inflated and held at the recommended
air pressure while the connection seal is allowed to cure. Once cured, the bladder
is removed and the service is returned to use.
Estimated Cost: $ 10,500.00 per CIPP lateral seal
2. Reconnecting Laterals to Main Line
This process consists of reconnecting a lateral to a sewer main by use of a saddle
or fitting. It is used to repair break-in taps or other defective connections, which
are very common in older collection systems. These connections are very
susceptible to ground water infiltration and root intrusion. It is recommended that
break-in taps be replaced by a saddle connection.
Estimated Cost: $6,000.00 per service lateral
3. Installation of Clean -outs
Many older service laterals were installed without clean -outs at the property line
(right-of-way). Without them, it can be very difficult to remove blockages that can
occur in the laterals. If a clean -out on private property is used, it can be difficult to
determine whether the responsibility for removing a blockage lies on the property
owner or the municipality. To allow for easier maintenance, we recommend that
all service laterals have clean -outs installed at the property line or edge of right-of-
way.
Estimated Cost: $1000.00 per clean -out

V. REPAIR / REPLACEMENT / REHABILITATION (RRR) RECOMMENDATIONS WITH
COST ESTIMATES
Overall, the collection system was found to be in very good condition. Only a few active
infiltration defects were identified; most were in manholes or at the manhole/pipe
connection. Because there are so few repairs, the price of each repair can be expected to
be highly inflated if this work is done as a standalone project. We recommend including
these few repairs in with another sewer rehabilitation project in order to obtain better
overall pricing.

VI. CONCLUSION
This report presents the data, results, and recommendations from the evaluation of the
Grassy Brach gravity collection system. Based on the CCTV inspection results, there are
only a few minor defects in the collection system that need to be addressed.
We encourage Union County Water to move forward with the recommendations presented
in this study. Following these repair recommendations will reduce I/1 reaching the WRF.
Furthermore, tending to these issues will prevent these defects from getting worse over
time. We also recommend that the County include these repairs in with another sewer
rehabilitation project for the best possible cost benefit.
Hydrostructures, P.A. has extensive experience with trenchless rehabilitation engineering,
and we would welcome the opportunity to assist the County with the implementation of
RRRs proposed in this report.
