I had to work, so I missed all the action. I am told that the sewer connection was 18-24 feet deep. If I have time later this week I want to go to the fifth floor of city hall to track down the microfiche record of the city sewer system. I’m curious to see when it was built and what sort of records exist for my 101 year old house. I hope the new pipe lasts another 100 years with no trouble! The super great news is that they added a cleanout! Now THAT is smart! In future, if there is trouble with the city sewer, there will be access much closer to their line. Also, the catalpa tree looks like it avoided any damage. So sad I missed the dig, glad the job is mostly done!
