| 2023-07-10 16:41:31 | PLEASE PROVIDE WRITTEN RESPONSES TO THE FOLLOWING: |
| | -THE LARGE DIAMETER WATER SERVICE PIPES NEEDS TO BE |
| | DUCTILE IRON INSTEAD OF PVC. PLEASE UPDATE CALLOUTS. |
| | -WATER METER VAULTS MAY NOT BE COVERED WITH |
| | WUNDERCOVERS. REMOVE THAT LANGUAGE FROM PLANS. THE TOP |
| | OF METER VAULTS MUST BE LEVEL WITH THE SURROUNDING |
| | GRADE AND VISIBLE TO UTILITY EMPLOYEES. |
| | -WPB GIS SHOWED WATER MAIN ON GARDENIA ST. 8 INCH SIZE, |
| | BUT UTILITY PLAN SHOWS 12 INCH SIZE. PLEASE VERIFY AND |
| | UPDATE PLAN AS NEEDED. |
| | -THERE IS A LINE GOING THROUGH WESTERN WATER METER |
| | VAULT ON THE UTILITY PLANS. PLEASE LABEL WHAT IT IS AND |
| | IF THERE IS A LOCATION CONFLICT THEN DISTANCE FROM EACH |
| | OTHER. |
| | -PROPERTY OWNER WILL BE REQUIRED TO RECORD BACKFLOW |
| | COVENANT AS A CONDITION OF WATER SERVICE. |
| | -SHOW AND LABEL ALL EXISTING METERED WATER SERVICES AND |
| | WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THEM. |
| | -FOR THE 8 INCH FIRE SERVICES, ADD WORDING ON THE |
| | LABELS DESCRIBING WHICH PORTIONS OF PROPERTY THEY SERVE |
| | (SIMILAR TO DESCRIPTION PROVIDED ON 6 INCH WATER |
| | METERS). |
| | -METER VAULT DIMENSIONS SAY 4 X 6, BUT ACTUAL METER |
| | VAULT MAY BE LARGER. IT WOULD BE REVIEWED AND |
| | DETERMINED DURING ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT SUBMITTAL. |
| | -ADJUST 6 INCH MJ GATE VALVE DOWNSTREAM OF EASTERN |
| | WATER METER VAULT SO THAT IT IS NOT OVER OR UNDER THE |
| | NEARBY CROSSING PIPE. |
| | -THE 6 INCH BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES MUST BE RP TYPE. ADD RP |
| | TYPE TO LABELS. |
| | -VERTICAL ORIENTATION OF BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES WOULD ONLY |
| | BE ALLOWED IF THEY ARE USC APPROVED FOR THAT |
| | ORIENTATION WITH THE EXACT MAKE, MODEL, AND SIZE. SOME |
| | TYPES OFF BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES MAY BE OFFSET AND NOT |
| | COMPLETELY VERTICAL. |
| | -PLEASE REVIEW THE EAST MOST 6 INCH TAP AND WATER |
| | SERVICE LINE. IT CONVERGES INTO THE PLUMBING FOR ONE OF |
| | THE DOMESTIC WATER SERVICES AND ALSO DOES NOT SHOW A |
| | WATER METER. THAT DESIGN IS NOT ALLOWED AND NEEDS |
| | REVISION. |
| | -ADD TYPE OF BACKFLOW ASSEMBLY TO THE 8 INCH BACKFLOW |
| | ASSEMBLY LABELS. DCDA MAY ONLY BE USED INSTEAD OF RPDA |
| | IF PRIVATE FIRE SYSTEM DOES NOT HAVE ADDED CHEMICALS OR |
| | AUXILIARY WATER SUPPLY. ADD VERIFICATION IN RESPONSE. |
| | -UTILITY PLANS SHOW WHAT LOOKS LIKE SOME BIG FPL VAULT |
| | AT THE EAST SIDE OF GARDENIA ST. IT IS TOO CLOSE TO |
| | WATER MAIN, AND IS ALSO PROPOSED IN SIDEWALK, |
| | LANDSCAPING, AND STREET WHICH MAY INTERFERE WITH |
| | DRAINAGE AND BE A TRIP HAZARD. |
| | -PRIVATE FIRE SYSTEM AND PLUMBING MUST COMPLY WITH WPB |
| | PUBLIC UTILITIES AND ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS. NOTIFY |
| | FIRE AND MEP DESIGNERS OF THAT AND HAVE THEM |
| | INCORPORATE THE WATER SERVICE STANDARD DETAILS INTO |
| | THEIR PLANS. IN ADDITION, FIRELINE BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES |
| | NEED TO HAVE OSY VALVES, BE LEAD-FREE & USC APPROVED, |
| | AND HAVE DUCTILE IRON PIPE ON THE UPSTREAM SIDE. |
| | LASTLY, VERTICAL BACKFLOW INSTALLATIONS ARE NONSTANDARD |
| | AND WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL REVIEW AND VERIFICATION OF |
| | FIRE AND MEP PLANS. |
| | -THE SURVEY SHOWS MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF EASEMENTS. |
| | WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ALL OF THEM? |
| | -VERIFY REQUIRED CLEARANCE AREAS AROUND FIRE HYDRANTS |
| | AS SHOWN IN STANDARD DETAIL P-8 IS MAINTAINED |
| | ESPECIALLY WITH RESPECT LIGHT POLES, BIKE RACKS, TREES, |
| | AND BUSHES. |
| | RESPECTFULLY, |
