The connection of the building sewer into the public sewer shall be made at the "Y"
branch, if such branch is available at a suitable location. If the public sewer is
12 inches in diameter or less, and a properly located "Y" or "T" branch is not available,
the owner shall, at the owner's expense, install a "Y" or "T" branch in the public
sewer at the location specified by the city engineer. Where the public sewer is greater
than 12 inches in diameter, and no properly located "Y" branch is available, a neat
hole may be cut into the public sewer to receive the building sewer, with entry in
the downstream direction at an angle of about 45 degrees. A 45-degree ell may be used
to make such connection, with the spigot end cut so as not to extend past the inner
surface of the public sewer. The invert of the building sewer at the point of connection
shall be made at the top one-quarter of the public sewer. A smooth, neat joint shall
be made, and the connection made secure and watertight by resilient gaskets and/or
epoxy cements. Special fittings may be used for the connection only when approved
by the city engineer.
