This contract will be located throughout the City of Aurora but will primarily be utilized on the older clay and brick sanitary sewers.
BACKGROUND:
Televising the City sewers is the first part of the annual sewer maintenance program conducted by the City. Each year, sewers are cleaned and televised if they are known to have potential issues or are under roadways that will be rehabilitated in the near future.

While reviewing the televising results, issues are identified and the proper solution is designed and implemented. Solutions such as sewer lining projects, sewer replacement or spot repairs are performed depending on the issues that are found during the televising.
