The pictures above show excessive mineral deposits in two separate manholes. Mineral <br />deposits form when groundwater leaks in through cracks or seams in the manhole walls. <br />The mineral deposits cause can reduce the size of the trough the sewage flows through <br />and potentially create backup problems. The deposits are also a sign of infiltration and <br />the City has been on a mission to eliminate as much infiltration as possible to reduce its <br />sewer bill and avoid penalties from the Metropolitan Council. The manholes are fully <br />cleaned and all mineral deposits are removed from the structure. Then all cracks and <br />seams are grouted with a special chemical grout that is completely waterproof and seals <br />up the cracks. <br />
