As required by Section 319.033, RSMo., by January 1, 2016, if
new lateral sewer pipes or water service lines are installed and connected
to an underground facility within the public right-of-way, as defined
in Section 319.015, RSMo., or if such infrastructure is fully replaced
by excavation within the public right-of-way, the facility owner shall
be required to place tracer wire and an access point within a protective
enclosure, on the property at the property line, over water lines
and cleanouts for gravity sewer laterals. The tracer wire must be
run to the structure or building and shall be No. 12 solid THHN and
extendable for three (3) feet outside the enclosure. Enclosures shall
be painted green for sewer and blue for water. For sewer laterals
operating under pressure or vacuum, the facility owner shall be required
to place an access point within a protective enclosure and shall not
be required to place a cleanout. All protective enclosures and cleanouts
shall be permanent and extended to grade and installed so that it
is easily accessible. The property owner is responsible for maintaining
the protective enclosures and cleanouts and shall repair or replace
said enclosures should they become buried, broken or otherwise unusable.
For water service lines and sewer laterals operating under pressure
or vacuum, tracer wire, or other utility location technology, shall
be placed within the protective enclosure to provide approximate location
of the underground facilities in these areas that are located within
a public right-of-way. An underground facility owner shall not be
liable to any party for damages or injuries resulting from an excavation
if they are in compliance with this Section. This Section shall apply
to all installations of water service lines and sewer laterals without
regard to their status as underground facilities under Section 319.015,
RSMo. Nothing in this Section shall require any owner of underground
facilities who is not otherwise required under Sections 319.010 to
319.050, RSMo., to become a notification center participant.
