Liner plan
Option A — Stretch liner: Handles the 4"→6" transition in a single pull. Recommended given the transition and the two 22.5° bends — stretch navigates turns cleaner than scrim. Option B — Scrim + transition liner 15/85/3: 15 ft of 4" covers the 6 ft cast iron section with buffer, 85 ft of 6" covers the 60 ft clay section with buffer. Tightest standard fit that covers both sections.
Pre-job steps
Floor Break Up (FBU): No Descaling: No Jetting: No — roots cleared by Flexshaft on liner day (camera confirmed clean passage through root section)

Sales rep has emails into the city to confirm exact size. Office must confirm main size before seal team can order correct material and schedule. Do not schedule seal team until size is confirmed. • Three minor holes at 22, 33, and 42 ft — all within the lined section and covered by the liner. Crew to run camera pre-cure to document condition before liner is installed. Summary: This is a solid, straightforward 66 LF liner job with good access and clean camera footage. The two flags are the lateral seal (pending main size confirmation) and three minor holes that the liner will cover — document them pre-cure. Once the city confirms the main pipe size, the seal team can be scheduled after liner install. PERMIT REQUIREMENTS City: Minneapolis (assumed from address — verify) Permit Type: Minneapolis Sewer Permit How to Apply: Verify with office Cost: $160.00 Inspection Process: Verify with office Road Patch Requirement: N/A — no-dig liner Road Closure: N/A I&I Program: N/A Notes: If any work encroaches on ROW, a Minneapolis ROW Excavation Permit ($800) may also be required — verify with office. HEADS UP — INSTALL TEAM ATTENTION None ADDITIONAL NOTES • Install team: Confirm clay pipe size after the cast iron section before pulling liner. Usually 6" but occasionally 4" or 5" — quick check saves a wasted liner. • Lateral seal to be scheduled after liner install — office to coordinate once main pipe size is confirmed by city. • Short run (66 LF) — check truck for liner cut-offs before ordering new material.
