How far apart must your incoming water line and your sewer lines be placed apart. I live in Texas

I live in Florida. The Standard Plumbing Code allows you to run sewer and water in the same trench providing you keep the water service 12 inches above the sewer line on a shelf on one side of the trench.
Hope this helps, Tom
