SCOPE: This report covers the design of this project insofar as the safety and sanitary quality of the water for
public consumption may be affected, and applies to this project only and not to the entire system or any other
part thereof. The examination of plans is based upon the supposition that the data on which the design is based
are correct, and that necessary legal authority has been obtained to construct the project. The responsibility for
the design of structural features and the efficiency of equipment must be taken by the project designer. Approval
is contingent upon satisfactory disposition of any requirements included with this report.
Water supply plans are examined with regard to the location, construction and operational features of the design
and maintenance of all parts of the system which may affect the safety and sanitary quality of the water.
Examination is based on the standards of this department.
This project consists of the installation of the following watermains:
1. 101 lineal feet of6-inch PVC plastic watermain
2. 1,221 lineal feet of 8-inch PVC plastic watermain
REQUlREMENT(S):
1. It is understood that the installation will be in accordance with previously approved specifications
(Joint Powers Board, 1998).
2. The completed watermains shall be disinfected for 24 hours with 50 ppm available chlorine. At the
en~ of the disinfection period, the residual shall be at least 10 ppm throughout the length of the
maIn.
3. The watermain should be pressure tested at 150 psi for at least two hours with no pressure drop.
COMPLIANCE: No construction. shall take place except in accordance with the approved plans. If it is desired
to make deviations from the approved plans, the State Department of Health should be consulted and approval of
the changes obtained before construction is started; otherwise, such construction is installed without proper
approval, and in addition may create dangers to public health.
Authorization for construction in accordance with the approved plans may be withdrawn if construction is not
undertaken within a period of two years. The fact that the plans have been approved does not necessarily mean
that recommendations or requirements for change will not be made at some later time when changed conditions,
additional information, or advanced knowledge make improvements necessary.
