This research project involves the development of a test programme to comparatively test and evaluate the inspection procedures and equipment currently available for site drainage systems. Practical experience is to be gathered in pilot deployments in cooperation between the Meyer-Entsorgung disposal company and the City of Osnabrück. In addition, general recommendations for action to provide both the public and system operators with assistance prior to the actual inspection are to be drafted, based on experience from the City of Osnabrück. The project is receiving funding from the German Federal Environmental Foundation (DBU).
