CIVIL PERMIT APPLICATION GENERAL • Civil engineering drawings will be required for this project prior to issuance of the first building permit (The city has transitioned to electronic review. Please reach out to the city permit technicians at PermitCenter@PuyallupWA.gov and they will guide you how to submit). Included within the civil design package will be a utility plan overlaid with the landscape architects landscaping design to ensure that potential conflicts between the two designs have been addressed. • Engineering plans cannot be accepted until Planning Department requirements have been satisfied, including but not limited to, SEPA, Preliminary Site Plan approval, CUP, and/or Hearing Examiner conditions. • Civil Engineering plan review fee is $670.00 (plus an additional $130.00 per hour for reviews in excess of five hours).

WATER • The proposed water system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.02.120] Water Meter Options o Provide six dual meters and one single meter to provide water to each of the 13 residences. This method charges each owner individually for water consumption. • Any wells on the site must be decommissioned in accordance with Washington State requirements. Documentation of the decommissioning must be provided along with submittal of engineering drawings. If an existing well is to remain, the well protection zone shall be clearly delineated, and appropriate backflow protection (Reduced Pressure Backflow Assemblies) shall be installed at all points of connection to the public water system. [PMC 14.02.220(3)(b)] • A new water main line shall be extended to, and through, the site sufficient to provide the necessary flows for both the domestic system and fire system. The minimum water pipe size shall be 8-inch diameter. (Exception: A 4-inch water main may be installed if either, 1) the proposed main is a dead-end line with no possibility of being expanded in the future, or 2) that portion of the proposed main beyond the last fire hydrant for the project.) [PMC 14.02.190 & CS 301.1(1)] • The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. Domestic service water meters shall be located within the public ROW, or in the case of a private road adjacent to the road section, in accordance with City Standards. [PMC 14.02.120(2)(f) 14.02.220(2) & CS 301.3] • The applicant shall be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the proposed water main located on private property. • Any existing services that are to be abandoned at this site shall be disconnected at the main, the corp. stop removed, and the service plugged to city standards. [PMC 14.02.120(f)] • The minimum distance between water lines and sewer lines shall be 10-feet horizontally and 18-inches vertically. If this criterion cannot be met, the design shall isolate the sewer and water lines by encasement, shielding or other approved methods. • A 2-inch blow-off assembly is required on dead-end water mains except where fire hydrants are installed at the dead-end. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(7)] • Water pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. BACKFLOW PROTECTION: • The applicant is required to provide backflow protection on the domestic line(s) in accordance with City Standards. The minimum level of protection would be a double check valve assembly (DCVA). However, the city requires a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) for any use considered to be a high hazard as outlined in WAC 246-290-490 Table 9. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • If an RPBA is not appropriate then the applicant shall provide backflow protection with the installation of a double check valve assembly (DCVA) on the domestic connection to the public water main, if one does not currently exist. A plumbing permit is required for this work to be completed; and the unit should be located outside the building, immediately downstream of the existing water meter if possible. If an irrigation system is also proposed, a DCVA is required on that line as well. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • A reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) may be required on the domestic line at each location where the proposed water main connects to the public system. If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main. The fire sprinkler Double Detector Check Valve Assembly (DDCVA) may be located either inside, or outside, of the building. • The sprinkler supply line shall be designed, and shown on the plan, into the building to the point of connection to the interior building riser. Provide plan and elevation detail(s) where the riser enters the building with dimensions, clearances, and joint restraint in accordance with NFPA 24. A post indicator valve (PIV) shall be provided for the fire sprinkler system in advance of the DDCVA. [PMC 14.02, CS 302.3, & CS 303] • Fire hydrants shall be placed so that there is a minimum of 50-feet and a maximum 150-feet of separation from hydrants to any building walls. [PMC 16.08.080 & CS 301.2, 302.3] • Maximum hydrant run is 20-feet. Hydrant runs that exceed this distance shall be served by a mainline with the hydrant feed line set at right angles to the supply main. • The Fire Department Connection (FDC) shall be located no closer than 10-feet and no further than 15-feet from a fire hydrant. [CS 302.3] • Available fire flow for the project site must be determined by hydraulic modeling conducted by the City’s consultant. The cost of this analysis is $600 and shall be paid by the applicant. • Utility extensions shall be approved and permitted prior to any building permit issuance. [PMC 14.02.130]

[PMC 14.20 and 17.42] • If any buildings on site are connected to septic tanks, the applicant shall abandon the existing septic systems per Pierce County Health Department regulations. A Septic/Pump Tank Decommissioning Certification form must be completed and submitted to the Source Protection Program Department at (253) 798-6470. Verification of certification must be provided PRIOR to final city approvals. [PMC 14.08.070] • A separate and independent side sewer will be required from the private main extension to each individual unit . Side sewers shall be 6 inch minimum diameter with a 0.02 foot per foot slope. • Side sewers shall have a cleanout at the property line (to distinguish ownership/maintenance responsibility), at the building, and every 100 feet between the two points. [PMC 14.08.120 & CS 401(6)] • Sewer main pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. • The construction of an area drain for the trash enclosure, if proposed, will require the enclosure to be covered to prevent stormwater infiltration into the sewer system.
