M5.7 Your Sewage Facilities
In my city, Rancho Cucamonga, there are 421 miles of sewer lines that are cleaned every 12 months, 37,000 service connections, and 8,300 manholes that are inspected every 12 months. The Cucamonga Valley Water District is our sewage system that allows our sewage to be transferred safely through our city underground. They replace any damaged, rattling, or missing manholes. There are about 3 main sewage lines that allow for our sewage to be transferred through the city. We have a clean city that allows for transportation of sewage that keeps our city free from toxic chemicals and matter than can cause health issues. I am lucky to live in a city that keeps our streets clean of excrement and pollution.

Hi Snay,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your post and details about the sewage facilities in your city. I agree with your statement," I am lucky to live in a city that keeps our streets clean of excrement and pollution." We are fortunate that we live in a country were we have clean streets devoid of excrement.
So interesting to learn of the amount of lines and connections needed to transport sewage through your community. I'm assuming that this doesn't include the lines and connections needed to transfer treated water, so I can imagine how many more would help support that effort. With so much going on underground, I wonder what their maintenance system looks like, especially for those transporting our clean water. In addition, how old are these lines, because I'm assuming that the older they are the higher the likelihood that they may contain lead.
