Cote,20129 Wolverine Street NW,Elk River, Minnesota 55330 Plans Dated: Date Received: December 17,2009 Date Reviewed: December 30, 2009 SCOPE: This review is limited to the design of this particular project only insofar as the provisions of the Minnesota Plumbing Code, as amended,apply, and does not cover the water supply or sewerage system to which this plumbing system is connected. The review 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 in this report. Special care should be taken to insure that the material and installation of the plumbing system are in accordance with the provisions of the Minnesota Plumbing Code. A copy of the approved plans and specifications should be retained at the project location for fnture reference. A set of the identified plans and specifications is being returned to Center Point Plumbing LLC. INSPECTIONS: All plumbing installations must be tested and inspected in accordance with the requirements of the Minnesota Plumbing Code. As specified in Minnesota Rules,part 4715.2830,no plumbing work may be covered prior to completing the required tests and inspections. Provisions must be made for applying an air test at the time of the roughing-in inspection as outlined in Minnesota Rules,part 4715.2820, subpart 2, of the code. A manometer test, as specified in Minnesota Rules,part 4715.2820, subpart 3,is required at the time of the finished plumbing inspection. 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 standazds representative for your region,or call Jim Peterson at 651/284-5889. REQiTIItEMENT(S): I. The new sink shall not connect to the vertical riser serving the three-comparhnent sink as is currently shown. Since a tell-tale floor drain is required on the three-compartment sink's dedicated fixture branch,the floor drain must specifically serve that sink prior to connecting to any other fixtures (see Minnesota Rules, part 4715.1390, subpart 2). 2. A three-compartment sink, a hand sink, and a floor drain total7 drainage fixture units and are shown discharging through a 2 inch pipe. Since a 2 inch horizontal drain can only accommodate 6 fixture units at a slope of 1/4-inch per foot,this portion of the system is undersized(see Minnesota Rules,part 4715.2310, subpart 2). 3. It is recommended that a cleanout be provided where new waste and vent piping connects with existing plumbing to facilitate required testing of the new installation. 4. Verify that the existing water supply and waste systems are sized to accommodate the added fixtures(see Minnesota Rules,part 4715.3800 and part 4715.2310).
