Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that:

  • an inadequate drain pipe size will lead to frost-related blockage, which could lead to flow restriction, which could lead to sewage backup,
  • an inappropriate terminal connection will lead to unauthorized disconnection, an inability to withstand repeated connection and disconnection, or an inadequate seal, which could lead to leakage at the connection,
  • inadequate protection from mechanical damage or frost-heave, or soil-settlement-related damage, will lead to leakage,
  • inappropriate termination will lead to system failure, or
  • the design or construction is inappropriate, which could lead to system failure or leakage.

This is to limit the probability of unsanitary conditions, which could lead to harm to persons.
