  1. The superintendent and other duly authorized employees of the wastewater department bearing proper credentials and identification shall be permitted to enter all private properties through which the city holds an easement for the purpose of, but not limited to, inspection, observation, measurements, sampling, repair, and maintenance of any portion of the sewage works lying within said easement. All entry and subsequent work, if any, on said easement shall be done in full accordance with the terms of the duly negotiated easement, where such exists, pertaining to the private property involved.
  2. Every building sewer connected shall be inspected and tested before the trench in which it is laid is backfilled; and any work not accepted or approved by the superintendent for failure to meet these regulations shall be replaced or repaired so that it does comply. The person making the installation shall notify the superintendent twenty-four (24) hours before the connection is ready for inspection. Requests for inspection of work not completed or otherwise not meeting these requirements, and which result in additional trips to the work site by the city shall be paid for at the rate of $5.00 per each additional trip.
