COMMENT #6
ACTION:
The flow per minute was calculated to be 0.875 gpm which would correspond
to 1260 gpd, however, we assumed (as noted in the letter) that the flow is 1
gpm which corresponds to 1440 gpd.
Please verify that you were able to maintain appropriate cover over the existing
gas and sanitary sewer with the revised grading for the driveway.
The revised grading plan drops the concrete driveway by about 4" The
sanitary sewer is approximately 7' deep in this area. Kimberly Winn at Atmos
Energy informed me that the existing gas line is X to 4' deep in this area. She
agreed that the revised grading would not harm the integrity of their pipe.
If you have any questions or additional comments, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Sincerely,
L.
