I seriously celebrate the men and women keeping the sewage system running! I'm on a septic system and still appreciate the work and innovation involved.

@The_yeffy1 2 года назад

as someone in the business you should truly appreciate that you are on a septic system and how you are living off the grid. The water your house takes from the ground is returned naturally to the ground all with gravity and no electricity. The major cities drain the ground of fresh water and then flush them down pipes that eventually lead to the ocean it does not get returned to ground water to replenish it.

@@The_yeffy1 You're right. And many cities ran their storm drains into their sewers so when there is a storm the surge overwhelms the treatment plant and they often have to just let the waste flow untreated into streams and lakes. See Syracuse, and Rochester NY

@@jeremypilot1015 yup in CT where I live it’s a small town we have zoning laws that do not ever allow our plant to get overwhelmed. However the city next to us has a plant built in the 50s when the city had 50k people and it’s the same plant in 2021 with 450k people using it.

@Chuck.S. 2 года назад

I worked in this industry for years. I used to service a pumping station that was 300 ft deep and had no ladder access to get down to the pumps. It was the main pumping station for the city, so it had 2 huge wastewater pumps, and had a constant flow of thousands of gallons per minute. I had to put a full harness on, then be lowered by a boom truck. Normally, you can put what they call a pig in the pipe to stop the water temporarily, but this station was too big and too much flow. I have had pigs blow out on me while I was in the bottom of a station, had to take debris out that you would wonder how it ever ended up in the sewer. Had to work on 440 3 phase control panels, which had to remain live to keep at least one of the pumps working. All in all, it was a very dangerous job. I commend all those who work in the industry and do a job that a lot of people would not do.

Last year we did a cool project out in yakima washington at a trailer park we hooked it up to the city sewer system. It was hard work. It took 1 year and 3 guys. Me steve and brad. But i learned that this is probably what i want to do for a living. I wanna work my way up and eventually be like an engineer for the city or something like that. Do i just keep doing what im doing. I dont want to waste my time doing little things when i can learn a lot doing other things in the same field. Bigger things like for the city and stuff. ??

The narrator implies that sanitary sewer pipes and run off water collection are always combined and sent to a treatment facility (known as combined sewer systems, or CSS). In the past this wasn’t so uncommon, but it is increasingly rare. Even I’m the example city of Milwaukee in the video, only 5% of their system is still combined, and soon they will be entirely independent. Other than that misleading confusion, the video is fairly accurate
