From his perspective, Chair Stenlund asked Mr. Pasko for his opinion on why or how a <br /> homeowner could be responsible for a portion of the line under the street and beyond his <br /> right-of-way; and without any power on their part to control what occurs around or near <br /> that line, such as compaction or traffic vibrations. Chair Stenlund also sought Mr. <br /> Pasko's observations of other communities and their practice. <br /> Based on his experience across the country, Mr. Pasko advised that he was only <br /> personally aware of one community that stops ownership at the property line or right-of- <br /> way. Mr. Pasko advised that the responsibility of the owner usually went to the main and <br /> includes the wye, with the private property owner responsible for the lateral and wye <br /> connection that comes into the main to make it a complete pipe. Furthermore, Mr. Pasko <br /> noted that it was common on the east coast for ownership of the wye and lateral up to the <br /> main. Mr. Pasko recognized that the wye was generally the first part to break. <br /> Mr. Pasko noted that the State of MN was actually progressive in that a private property <br /> owner didn't own water service to the main or half or all of the curb stop box; and <br /> advised that many communities across the nation do so. <br /> Mr. Pasko opined that depending on the situations and technology to employ them, he <br /> suspected that the use of cleanouts was coming to an end. Mr. Pasko noted that it wasn't <br /> unusual for private plumbers to carry liners into home basements or install cleanouts next <br /> to the foundation wall but not in a right-of-way. <br /> Member Seigler asked if water laterals and linings had the same issues as that of sanitary <br /> sewer lines as far as deterioration. <br /> While water mains were similar in terms of trouble spots and many can be rehabilitated <br /> using similar technology, Mr. Pasko noted that it depended on the community and its type <br /> of soil. Mr. Pasko advised that 30% to 60% of pipe wall loss was being experienced in <br /> communities with 1920's era infrastructure. Mr. Pasko anticipated that in the next ten <br /> years, technologies will be available allowing for water service pipes of 1/2" diameter to <br /> be lined, once the materials used are certified; with some being experimented with now. <br /> Mr. Culver reported that S.E.H., Inc. will be designing and administering a Roseville <br /> project lining the water main on Heinel Drive due to it being a long dead-end street and <br /> creating difficulties for those residents if an open cut process was used. Mr. Culver <br /> advised that this new technology for water main lining was different than the previous <br /> pilot program using 3M spray-on material. <br /> On behalf of the PWETC, Chair Stenlund thanked Mr. Pasko for his informative <br /> presentation and discussion. <br /> 6. Roseville Recycling Request for Proposals (RFP) —continued from January <br /> Mr. Culver referenced the staff report and attachments; highlighting specific items <br /> remaining for PWETC recommendation. Mr. Culver also provided a summary of <br /> the 60 comments and questions received via the Speak Up! Roseville website. <br /> Page 9 of 20 <br />
