Building sewers shall be installed using the shortest and most direct route to the sewer main. Interior plumbing modifications are suggested rather than excessive changes of directions in building sewer.
A.All fittings shall be installed to guide sewage in the direction of flow. There shall be no elbows
greater than 45 degrees. If a change in direction greater than 45 degrees is required, two (2) 45
degree elbows shall be used. It is suggested that a clean out be installed between the 45 degree elbows.

and the top destroyed prior to filling with sand. Any questions related to abandoning existing septic tanks shall
be directed to the Vermillion County Sanitarian.

a. 6" Diameter Sewer - Minimum slope is 0.0061 FT/FT (0.61 %)
D. Sewer cleanouts shall be installed a maximum of every 100 feet along the building sewer. Accessible
cleanouts shall be installed at every change of direction.
E. Cleanouts shall be extended to grade, pipe liners (frost sleeves) are recommended to be placed around the
cleanout grade extension. The cleanout shall be a "Y" fitting installed in the direction of sewer flow with a 45
degree fitting directed to grade.
F. Cleanouts shall be the same diameter as the lateral sewer pipe, with a minimum size of 6 inches in diameter
. Cleanouts shall be covered with a removable type plug or cap.
G. Prior to backfilling over building sewer, all construction shall be inspected and approved by an inspector from
the Town of Fairview Park for verification of compliance with minimum standards for design, material and
workmanship. Any building sewer back-filled prior to inspection approval shall be required to be re-excavated for
proper inspection and approval.
