Review by the AHJ shall not relieve the applicant of the responsibility for compliance with the Code.  

 		 

1. The shop drawings submitted with the permit do not match the most current civil plans. Reference MODCP 2024-159. The MODCP is still under review with the county. Please do not re-submit until you obtain the most current civil drawings for this fire main. Please adjust the submittal data sheets to meet the most current civil plans.

 

2. Plans show a 12" RPDA BFP. Submittal data sheet submitted specifies a 10" RPDA BFP. Please address.

 

3. A fire pump is going to be boosting this entire fire main for the site and the 2 warehouses. The fire pump will be reviewed under a different permit, however, please indicate how the 12" line coming in and the 10" line going out are going to finish 1' AFF in the pump building. Are there going to be in-building risers used? Please clarify and provide the appropriate submittal data sheets.
