Don't know about Florida, but here in Oklahoma there is no minim. The max distance is 400 ft for 15" or less and 500 ft for 18"-30". Plus you need a manhole for every grade change, line size change, and intersection.

She needs a vertical distance not a horizontal distance. I do believe it is 2 feet. Check your APWA standards for your state.
