Sanitary Sewer Evaluation

Field Services conducts Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Surveys to evaluate the sewer system and potential problems, such as inflow and infiltration into the pipes, as well as structural problems within the system. This ongoing monitoring, utilizing video cameras and other detection tools, is used to develop condition assessments of the sewer lines to determine when repairs, rehabilitation or replacement is required. This section manages outside contracts with suppliers for some of these services.

The Gwinnett County Grease Management Program exists to protect the county’s collection system from elicit fats, oils, and grease (FOG) discharge that can cause serious damage and expense.  To that end, the Grease Management Program is tasked with making sure commercial users of the collection system have properly sized interception capacity as well as properly maintain the interceptor/s.  All new commercial facilities, whether new builds or new owners of existing facilities, must have their trap capacity reviewed before they will be granted a permit to tie to the collection system.  This capacity is determined by the size of the restaurant as well as the equipment list and menu items served.  The Gwinnett County Grease Ordinance gives specific requirements for fats, oils, and grease mitigation.
