| | 113 PLEASE REFER TO SECTION 213.2 EXCEPTION-3 AND THE |
| | ADVISORY UNDER THE SECTION- ADVISORY 213.2 TOILET ROOMS |

| | GROUP OF TOILET ROOMS PROXIMATE TO ONE ANOTHER. |
| | GENERALLY, TOILET ROOMS IN A CLUSTER ARE WITHIN SIGHT |
| | OF, OR ADJACENT TO, ONE ANOTHER. TOILET RM 113 DOES NOT |
| | MEET THE EXCEPTION AND SHALL BE DESIGNED TO BE |

| | BASED ON TABLE 403.3 AND SECTIONS 403.2 & 403.3 IT |

| | BEEN ELIMINATED. THE PREVIOUS PLAN SHOWED THE |
| | CHILDREN'S SEPARATED BOYS AND GIRLS TOILET ROOMS AND |
| | ALSO TOILET ROOMS- 108 & 113. THE TWO UNISEX TOILET |
| | ROOMS APPEARED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT FOR SEPARATE |
| | FACILITIES FOR THE PUBLIC AND EMPLOYEES- SECTION 403.3. |
| | AND ALSO MATCHED THE FIXTURE CALCULATION TABLE ON CS-1 |

| | FIXTURE CALCULATIONS ON CS-1 HAVE BEEN REVISED TO SHOW |
| | ONE UNISEX TOILET ROOM. PLEASE REVISE THE PLAN TO SHOW |
