Explanation:
The Department of Public Utilities ("Department") is responsible for maintaining the wastewater collection system, including 86 lift stations and over 282 miles of sewer mains.

H&S is in the process of conducting I&I project prioritization and recently recommended work, including CCTV inspections and excavated point repairs required by the contract with Envirowaste, in six sewer basins as urgent projects.
