| | OFFICE: 561-494-1083 (ENGINEERING) |
| | OFFICE: 561-805-6716 (CONSTRUCTION SERVICES) |
| | SHEET C-4: |
| | MODIFIED "MANHOLE" S-5 IS SHOWN TO BE A CATCH BASIN, |
| | WHICH IS IT? |
| | SHEET C-5: |
| | 1. ADDED NOTE TO DETAIL FOR WATER SERVICES "SEE DETAIL |
| | WS-1 ON SHEET C-7". ONLY 1 OR 2" SERVICES ARE ALLOWED. |
| | 3/4" WATER SERVICES ARE NOT ALLOWED, DETAIL WS-1 WILL |
| | NEED TO BE FOLLOWED. |
| | 2. THE METER SIZE FOR THE IRRIGATION SYSTEM WILL NEED |
| | TO BE CHANGED FROM A 3/4" WATER METER TO A 1". A 3/4" |
| | METER WILL ONLY SUPPLY 15 GALLONS PER MINUTE (GPM) AT A |
| | SAFE, CONTINUOUS OPERATING VOLUME. PER SHEET L-3 |
| | (IRRIGATION PLANS), THE GPM USAGES ARE OVER THE SAFE, |
| | CONTINUOUS OPERATING VOLUME, WHICH IS ACTUALLY OVER THE |
| | ALLOWABLE FOR A 1" METER (25 GPM). EVEN WITH A 1" METER |
| | YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET THE MINIMUM ALLOWABLE |
| | USAGE LEVELS OF A 1" METER, WITHOUT CHANGING THE |
| | IRRIGATION SYSTEM DESIGN, WHICH WILL NEED TO BE DONE TO |
| | REDUCE FOUR OF THE ZONES TO LESS THAN 25 GPM. THE |
| | ALTERNATIVE IS TO INCREASE THE METER SIZE (TO 1-1/2"] |
| | AND THE SERVICE SIZE [TO 2"). |
| | 3. PER OUR STANDARD DETAILS WATER METERS ARE NOT TO BE |
| | PLACED IN SIDEWALKS UNLESS THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE TO |
| | PLACE THEM. THESE TWO METERS NEED TO BE INSTALLED IN |
| | THE GRASS PARKWAY, SOUTH OF THE SIDEWALK. |
| | C-6: |
| | 1. THE INTERIOR OPENING OF THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE IS |
| | SHOWN TO BE 12.5' WIDE, THIS IS SHOWN ON THE PLAN AND |
| | IS CORRECT. BUT, THE NOTE DESCRIBES THE GATES TO BE |
| | DESIGNED TO "FIT 10' OPENING & GATE POSTS." WE HAVE HAD |
| | PROBLEMS WITH ALLOWING THIS COMMENT IN THE PAST. IT IS |
| | NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PICK OUT EVER SMALL DETAIL, |
| | BUT BE WARNED, THE OPENING FOR THE GATES WILL NOT ONLY |
| | BE 12.5', THE PLACEMENT OF THE POSTS IS ON THE CENTER |
| | LINE OF THE 12" THICK BLOCKS, SO AN ADDITIONAL 10" WILL |
| | NEED TO BE ADDED TO THE WIDTH OF THE GATES. BE SURE YOU |
| | ORDER THE RIGHT MATERIAL. |
| | 2. THE FIRST NOTE FOR THE EXFILTRATION TRENCH NEEDS TO |
| | BE CHANGED TO READ "SIDES, BOTTOM, AND TOP OF TRENCH TO |
| | BE LINED......." |
| | L-1: |
| | TREES ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE PLANTED WITH LESS THAN 5' |
| | OF CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE OUTSIDE OF THE TREE ROOT BALL |
| | AND THE WATER OR SEWER LINE. THE PLAN SHOWS ONE TREE ON |
| | TOP OF THE SANITARY SEWER LATERAL, AND THREE MORE TREES |
| | THAT APPEAR TO BE TOO CLOSE. THERE ARE 4 TREES THAT |
| | APPEAR TOO CLOSE TO THE WATER SERVICE. REMOVE THE |
| | TREES, OR INSTALL PALMS AND USE A ROOT BARRIER BETWEEN |
| | THE UTILITY AND ROOT BALL. |
