Definition
Programs that are responsible for repairing or replacing broken, corroded or leaking sections of pipe (including laterals) that are part of the water distribution system. The broken pipe section is either replaced or a repair sleeve is placed around the outside of the broken pipe section and clamped into place. Following the repair of the pipe, the line is typically flushed and then disinfected with a chlorine solution.
