Re: Civil Engineering -FDC Location
Proposed Zeta Tau Alpha Sorority House
1403 Athens Drive
College Station , Texas
Gessner Engineering Job No.: 08-0071
Dear Ms. Bridges:
Gessner Engineering understands the FDC is required within 150 feet of the fire
hydrant. However, on the proposed site plan the FDC location is slightly over the
150 feet requirement. We had a meeting with Jerry Duffey on September 8,
2008 at 2 pm to discuss fire service to the building and he said that that FDC
distance would be acceptable and we would not be required to modify the
location in order to meet the 150' distance requirement. He also directed us with
the location of the 36 ' wide fire lane and the layout for the rest of the fire lane on
the site.
Please contact us if you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance. _ ............ ,,,,,, G ----~OF /~ ''' -~ ..... ..+-..., '• ,,., '{-•' .. -,_ ' ~" .·· * '•, Q\ ,, ,,Co,• '·*'1

Re: Site Plan -Zeta Tau Alpha
Yes, I believe it is about 160 or 165 on the back side of the house closer
to the fire hydrant located on bayouwood? or I think it might be the same
distance from Athens with the hydrant on that side.

Jerry,
Melissa Thomas of Gessner Engineering said that you okayed the FDC not
being within 150-ft of the fire hydrant. Just wanted to confirm that this is
okay with you.
Thanks,
