True or False: Infiltration from a high water table can cause excessive clear water in a collection system.

The statement is true. Infiltration due to a high water table can introduce large amounts of clear water into a collection system. This occurs when groundwater seeps into the sewer lines, often through cracks, joints, or faulty connections. The presence of excessive clear water strain on the collection system can lead to challenges such as increased flow rates, potential overloading of the treatment facilities, and additional operational costs. Managing infiltration is crucial in maintaining the efficiency and integrity of wastewater management systems.
