Just going over my new sewer application form.

quite straightforward 

 

But has anyone seen the section about the specs of an "adopted lateral"

apparently it has to be .....

 

"capable of demonstrating a jetting resistance of 4000 psi (280 bar) without damage when tested in accordance with Section 6.10 of WIS 4-35-01"

 

hmm....I am hazarding a guess that normal 100mm sewage pipe will not suffice

 

I have tried to search Google ..but cannot find any at all 

 

For adopted stuff they will tell you usually what they accept.  Assuming it’s ST the for street works it’s any of the PolyPipe civils

range which isn’t much more expensive than ordinary underground pipe. 

Not sure if this is helpful (came up in a Safari search) but the narrative notes the jetting resistance you note above.

Thanks

 

I do need to get some work done on "the highway" connecting from my border to the Main Sewer
Anglian Water have been very helpful ...apart from the bloody fees LOL

but i think their list of APPROVED contractors in this area is a little sparse, perhaps outdated?

despite the date on it I dont think it has changed in the last year I have been looking at it

I take it as connecting to their Main manhole there is no other way than use APPROVED

from this list ...or are there other options ...that won't involve me having to get various certificates
applications and all the other jazz I think may be required
