Message: Careful Inspection is required for CMP, even if the initial impression is good.

Upon initial inspection, a conduit may appear to be in decent condition with many years of service remaining. However, a simple observation at each end of a pipe will not provide enough information to determine the condition of a pipe. A camera inspection of the full length of a pipe will provide more detail and can often be done inexpensively with an action camera such as a GoPro.
