In the state of Pennsylvania is the owner of a tree liable for root damage to a neighbor's sewer?

It actually depends upon what type of municipal ordinance (if any) is in place that pertains to the issue. When it pertains to sewer lines it is often not the tree roots that caused the original damage; but that the line was already ruptured and allowed roots to enter. The generaly consensus is of common law in which the land owner has no duty to those outside his property to correct natural conditions. There is also the legal presumption that the neighbor whose property has been infringed on has the option of "self-help" to correct the problem. This does not mean the person whose property has been damaged cannot pursue litigation, simply that it is unlikely they will be successful. The best option might be to speak with the owner of the property and try to come to an equitable agreement, perhaps sharing the cost of repairs.

Why are orange trees often sprayed with water?

Because the water freezes and puts a layer of ice on the fruit. This ice acts like an insulating blanket, protecting the plant from the colder than freezing temperatures that causes cellular wall damage that destroys the skin on the fruit and eventually the whole fruit.
"As the water freezes on the leaves, it gives off heat protecting the tree. The ice can also form an insulation barrier." Close, but not quite. What the orange growers are relying on is a thermodynamic property (in this case, of water) called latent heat of fusion. Basically, since water can exist in its solid and liquid form simultaneously ONLY at 32° F, it will stay at that temperature until it is all frozen. So for a short-lived cold snap, this strategy can protect one's orange trees by having the sprayed-on water freeze essentially instead of the orange. But if it stays below freezing for an extended period, the oranges will freeze, too.
