| | ADDITIONAL COMMENTS ADDED JULY 13, 2020 FROM MARK |
| | HURLEY, CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPERVISOR, CITY OF WPB PUBLIC |
| | UTILITIES, [email protected], 561-822-2262: |
| | |
| | -THE OLD METER FOR THE PROPERTY IS 3/4 IN. AND ACCOUNT |
| | IS NOT ACTIVE. PLAN DESIGNER WOULD NEED TO DETERMINE IF |
| | THE 3/4 IN. METER WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR THE WATER |
| | DEMAND OR IF IT NEEDS TO BE UPSIZED TO 1 IN. METER. |
| | WILL HAVE TO WORK WITH OUR UTILITY BILLING DEPT TO |
| | DETERMINE THE COSTS INVOLVED EITHER WAY. |
| | -PLEASE ADD WATER DEMAND CALCULATIONS TO PLAN. |
| | -THE 2 IN. LINE CURRENTLY HAS A 1.5 IN. METER. IT LOOKS |
| | TO BE AN ACTIVE PARKS IRRIGATION METER. WE WOULD HAVE |
| | TO VERIFY WITH PARKS IF THEY ARE USING IT AND WHAT IT |
| | SERVES (MAY WATER THE ROW GRASS). IF IT IS NOT |
| | AVAILABLE, THEN MAY HAVE TO GET NEW LINE, TAP, & METER. |
| | IF AVAILABLE PLAN DESIGNER WOULD NEED TO DETERMINE IF |
| | 1.5 IN. METER IS SUFFICIENT FOR DEMAND OR IF NEED |
| | UPSIZE TO 2 IN. METER. SAME WITH UTILITY BILLING. |
| | -PLAN DRAWINGS FOR THE WATER LINES DO NOT MATCH THE |
| | HISTORIC DRAWINGS WITH THE 4 IN. WATER MAIN BRANCH |
| | ACROSS 15TH ST AND E-W SERVICE LINES. THEY NEED TO BE |
| | VERIFIED IN THE FIELD AND PLAN UPDATED AS NEEDED. |
| | -PLEASE REFERENCE THE WS STANDARD DETAILS FOR THE |
| | BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES AND USE RP TYPE ASSEMBLIES. |
| | DEPENDING ON METHOD, MAY HAVE TO BORE UNDER SIDEWALK OR |
| | CUT IT OUT TO PLACE NEW PIPING AND SLEEVE UNDER |
| | SIDEWALK. |
| | -LOOKS LIKE NEW HYDRANT BEING INSTALLED NEAR NW CORNER |
| | OF PROPERTY. NEED LABEL TO MAKE THAT MORE CLEAR AND THE |
| | TEE DOES NOT LOOK LIKE IT IS DRAWN ONTO THE CORRECT |
| | PIPING. PLEASE ALSO MOVE VALVE IN SIDEWALK EAST OUT OF |
| | THE SIDEWALK. |
