Smoke testing for selected sewer systems on base begins

WHITEMAN AIR FORCE BASE, Mo. - Smoke will exit the sewer pipe through defects and make its way to the surface where it can be observed and documented by field crews. Smoke will also exit through the normal venting systems in the sewer. It is common to see gray smoke exiting from the rooftop vents on buildings during smoke testing. This is expected and does not cause concern. Smoke should not enter buildings unless defective plumbing exists or drain traps are dry. (Courtesy illustration)
