Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 511-3-1-.04 - Sewers
(1) Sewers
connecting component parts of on-site sewage management systems shall be of
sufficient size to serve anticipated flow conditions.
(2) All solid pipes and fittings used in an
on-site sewage management system, beginning at the house, shall be NSF
International schedule 40 PVC or equivalent and shall be a minimum of four
inches in diameter. Sewers under driveways or similar areas of load or impact
shall be of material capable of withstanding anticipated loads or installed so
as to provide protection from crushing.
(3)Sewers, other than perforated pipe or
drain tiles used in absorption fields, shall be laid with sealed, watertight,
root-resistant joints. Such sewers shall be laid on a firm foundation, shall
not be subject to settling, and shall be installed on a grade that will insure
a self-cleaning velocity. Where on-site sewage management systems are used, and
where installation of building drains and building sewers is not covered by
duly adopted local plumbing codes, or in the absence of a local plumbing code
or plumbing inspection, the County Board of Health may verify the adequacy and
acceptability of all or any portion of the building sewer or the building
drain.
