ENGINEERING AND INSPECTIONS
Inspections
The
Utility Inspection Team inspects County owned
water and sewer infrastructure that is installed
in the unincorporated areas of Seminole County.
These projects may be County capital improvement
projects or private development projects
where the infrastructure will become part
of the County's utility system. Inspectors
are responsible for observing the construction
of the facilities. Inspectors observe taps
to water mains and sewage force mains; inspect
water mains, reclaim water mains, sewage
force mains , gravity sewer collection systems
and sewage pump stations. Inspectors also
observe water main pressure testing, chlorination
of water mains and bacteriological testing.
They are present for fire hydrant flow tests,
backflow preventer certification, and sewage
pump station start-ups and acceptance. Prior
to acceptance of the project, they review
as-built plans and perform final inspections.
