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 in this report. Special care should be taken to insure that the material and installation are in accordance with the provisions of the Minnesota Plumbing Code and applicable licensing requirements. Enclosed is a copy of the report and transmittal letter to be forwarded to the project owner. INSPECTIONS: All plumbing installations, including water service and building sewers,must be tested and inspected in accordance with the requirements of the Minnesota Plumbing Code. It is the responsibility of the contractor/installer to notify the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry when an installation for a state contract job,licensed facility, or project in an area where there is no local administrative authority is ready for an inspection and test. To schedule inspections,contact the state plumbing standards representative for your region, or call Jim Peterson at 651/284-5889. REQUIREMENT(S): 1. AWWA C 900 PVC pipe may be used for the water service only if approved as an alternate material by the administrative authority(see Minnesota Rules,part 4715.0510 and part 4715.0330). 2. The PVC plastic pipe material to be used for the building sewer must meet one of the following ASTM Standards: D3034,F789,D2665,or F891. The installation must comply with ASTM Standard D2321 (see Minnesota Rules,part 4715.0530). Solvent weld joints in PVC and CPVC pipe must include use of a primer which is of contrasting color to the pipe and cement(see Minnesota Rules, part 4715.0810, subpart 2). 3. All joints and connections in the storm sewer system shall be gastight or watertight(see Minnesota Rules, part 4715.0700). Approved resilient rubber joints must be used to make watertight connections to manholes, catchbasins, and other structures. Cement mortar joints are permitted only for repairs and connections of existing lines constructed with such joints(see Minnesota Rules,part 4715.0750). 4. Draintile pipe which is directly connected to the storm sewer system is classified as storm sewer. Since all portions of storm sewer located within 10 feet of the water service must be tested,the piping located within 10 feet of the new water service must be hard piped,relocated, or removed. It must be verified that all draintile inlet elevations to the catch basins are above the storm sewer outlet elevations.
