What is missing?

Yes! I told them when the test was on that a sleeve or arch was needed to be installed. I told them at plan review. I told them at the time I issued the permit. I told them I would return and to check. They back filled both sides and concreted over. Told me it was in place. I told them to dig it up! They asked why? I said I need to see it. Good thing they used foam! I said if you can produce an ES report for the foam I would say ok! They finally decide to put a sleeve in. Gota love the job. Cost them 225.00 in re inspection fees.

Think they may put a sleeve in next time!
 
wouldn't think so... you have a couple of reasons why... (mine would be the relieving arch)
 
Per UPC, the 3034 PVC (as it appears to be) would not be allowed, due to being within 2 ft of the building. The cleanout, fittings serving the cleanout, and pipe extending through the foundation would be required to be piping approved for use inside a building (sch 40).

The cleanout would only need to be 2 way if there is not a cleanout inside the building. Otherwise, the "tee" needs to be approved drainage fitting (combo y or sweep).

The hole in the wall? Well, comments above say it all.
