Friday, December 2, 2022 DF: I spoke via phone with Dwayne regarding the laundry machines. Per Dwayne they are the size of residential machines that take coins or a card. There will be 3 washers and 3 dryers. 101:36.3.2 does not specifically call out residential style machines and the annex is silent on this type of equipment as hazardous. Based on this the separation requirement is removed.
