when the line from a sump pump draining a perimeter drain goes from vertical to horizontal, must it be pitched before it reaches the main storm drain? It is being pumped up to that point, so I don't see why it would matter if it was level or even back pitched.

Well Laddie, Where are you located and is this connection to the storm drain below the frost line?
