Municipal accounting lives for sanitary sewer (G3020)
18 municipal policies from Ontario set a life for sanitary sewer as a whole, from 18 distinct tables: 15–100 years, median 62. These are amortization periods chosen for accounting, not measured lives, and they describe the system rather than this component.
Years. Each dot is one stated life and each bar a stated range; equal values stack. The dashed line is the median. Policies that copy the same table count once.
