| | ENGINEER, CITY OF WPB PUBLIC UTILITIES, 561-494-1047, |
| | [email protected] : |
| | |
| | PLEASE CLARIFY IF 6 INCH POTABLE WATER SERVICE, 8 INCH |
| | DIP FIRE SERVICE AND 3 INCH IRRIGATION SERVICE ARE |
| | EXISTING OR PROPOSED. HOW DO THEY CONNECT TO EXISTING |
| | ONES? |
| | |
| | ARE THERE PROPOSED SEWER LATERALS CONNECTING TO |
| | EXISTING 8 INCH VCP SANITARY SEWER MAIN FROM THE |
| | PROPOSED BUILDING? |
| | |
| | ARE THERE ANY DRY UTILITIES THE AREA? |
| | |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE THE LEVEL OF SERVICE CALCULATION. |
| | |
| | THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS ARE FROM MARK HURLEY, FIELD |
| | CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPERVISOR, WPB PUBLIC UTILITIES: |
| | |
| | -IS THE EXISTING PHASE ONE PROPERTY ADDRESS 350 S. |
| | AUSTRALIAN OR 300 S. AUSTRALIAN? EXISTING WATER |
| | SERVICES SHOW UP AS 300 S. AUSTRALIAN AVE IN UTILITY |
| | BILLING SYSTEM. PLEASE ALSO VERIFY ADDRESS OF PHASE TWO |
| | CONSTRUCTION. |
| | |
| | -IT APPEARS THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO EXISTING FIRE |
| | HYDRANTS ON WEST SIDE OF OPEN SPACE DOWNSTREAM OF |
| | EXISTING DCDA FIRELINE. WILL THOSE REMAIN IN SAME SPOT |
| | OR BE RELOCATED NEARBY? |
| | |
| | -EXISTING FIRE DCDA NEEDS TO REMAIN ADJACENT CLEARWATER |
| | DR. NEAR THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE. ON FORMAL |
| | ENGINEERING SUBMITTAL PLEASE LABEL POINT OF SERVICE |
| | GATE VALVE. |
| | |
| | -EXISTING 6? DOMESTIC METER NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED |
| | ABOVE-GROUND WHEN RELOCATED WITHOUT A LARGE VAULT PER |
| | CONSTRUCTION STANDARD DETAILS. DO NOT REUSE WATER |
| | SERVICE COMPONENTS SUCH AS FITTINGS, BOXES, LIDS, |
| | VALVES, AND PIPING ? REPLACE THEM. PLAN THE WORK TO |
| | MINIMIZE WATER SERVICE OUTAGES FOR CUSTOMERS. |
| | |
| | -KEEP WATER METER BOX, BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES, AND VALVE |
| | BOXES OUT OF SIDEWALKS AND PEDESTRIAN FOOT TRAFFIC. |
| | |
| | -RELOCATED BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES WILL BE SUBJECT TO |
| | BACKFLOW INSTALLATION INSPECTIONS. ANY BACKFLOW |
| | ASSEMBLIES THAT ARE NOT LEAD-FREE COMPLIANT OR USC |
| | APPROVED WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH COMPLIANT |
| | ASSEMBLIES. |
| | |
| | -EXISTING IRRIGATION METER IS 2?. IF NOT SUFFICIENT, |
| | MAY NEED TO UPSIZE OR ADD ADDITIONAL WATER SERVICE. |
| | |
| | -WATER SERVICES AND METERS (EXISTING OR PROPOSED) ON |
| | PRIVATE PROPERTY WILL REQUIRE UTILITY EASEMENT IF NOT |
| | EXISTING ALREADY. BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES CANNOT BE IN |
| | UTILITY EASEMENTS. |
| | |
| | -NEED MORE INFORMATION ON LOCATION OF PROPOSED NEW |
| | WATER SERVICES AND BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES. IS THAT |
| | LOCATION A GRASSY AREA WHERE THERE IS NO INTENTION OF |
| | PEDESTRIAN OR VEHICLE TRAFFIC? THEY CANNOT BE LOCATED |
| | IN ROADWAYS OR SIDEWALKS. |
| | |
| | -EXISTING FIRE HYDRANT NEAR SE CORNER OF PROPERTY |
| | APPEARS TO BE LEFT OFF OF UTILITY PLAN. PLEASE ADD AND |
| | LABEL. |
| | |
| | -PROPOSED DOMESTIC AND IRRIGATION WATER SERVICES WITH |
| | METERS 3? AND LARGER SHOULD BE ABOVE-GROUND |
| | INSTALLATION USING SD WS-3. |
| | |
| | -PLEASE RELOCATE PROPOSED WATER SERVICE PIPING SO THAT |
| | IT DOES NOT RUN UNDERNEATH AND CLOSE TO FPL/AT&T |
| | UTILITIES AND GUY WIRES. BUILDING STRUCTURE OR LOCATION |
| | MAY NEED REDESIGN/ALTERATION TO FACILITATE THIS. ALSO |
| | RELOCATE PROPOSED METERS CLOSER TO EASTERN PROPERTY |
| | LINE SO THEY ARE WITHIN REACH OF CRANETRUCK OR BACKHOE, |
| | AND PIPE DISTANCE TO WATER MAIN IS MINIMIZED. |
| | |
| | -VERIFY PROPOSED 8? DCDA LOCATION IS ACCEPTABLE WITH |
| | CITY WPB FIRE MARSHAL. |
| | |
| | -SOME PARTS OF THE PROPERTY LIMITS APPEAR TO BE LEFT |
| | OFF OF THE UTILITY PLANS. PLEASE ADD THOSE AREAS TO THE |
| | PLANS USING MATCH-LINES AND EXTRA SHEETS IF NECESSARY. |
| | |
| | -FOR FORMAL ENGINEERING SUBMITTAL ADD ENLARGED/ZOOMED |
| | AREA OF THE METERED WATER SERVICES AND BACKFLOW |
| | ASSEMBLIES. |
| | |
| | -WPB UTILITIES RECOMMENDS PARALLEL/DUAL BACKFLOW |
| | ASSEMBLIES ON LARGE DOMESTIC WATER SERVICES TO MINIMIZE |
| | WATER OUTAGES DURING BACKFLOW ASSEMBLY MAINTENANCE. |
