RE: 65 Beekman Street Site Plan 2 6 2019
Dear Mr. Flick:
Lansing Engineering has reviewed the comments provided by you and Matt Zeno received in an emai
dated June 11, 2019 regarding the above noted project. The following summarizes the comments followed
by our responses.
1. Comment: Plans call out existing PVC sanitary and I IDPE storm pipe along Oak Street. Upon
inspection of sanitary manhole west of project site the pipe appears to be VCP. Likewise, upon
inspection of storm manhole east of the project site the pipe appears to be VCP.
Response: The plans have been revised to call out existing VCP pipe for the sanitary
sewer and storm sewer piping along Oak Street.
2. Comment: Sheet ED-1 notes pavement removal for sanitary sewer service and sump pump
lateral connection. Sheet LMG-1,howiever, shows original design sump pump connection to
catch basin at SW corner of Beekman & Oak. Eliminate sump pump connection from note on
Sheet ED-1. Maintain sump pump connection as shown on Sheet LMG-1. If decision is made to
connect to sanitary sewer on Oak Street, it can be managed as a field change.
Response: Comment noted. The sump pump connection note on Sheet ED-1 has been
renzoved and the original connection at the corner of Beekman ct Oak has been
included on the site plans.
3. Comment: Has fire flow data been established for 12"water main relative to building needs of
new building?
Response: Fire flow data for the hydrant located on the 12"main at the corner of
Washington Street and Beekman has been obtained and utilized for the water system
needs of the building. The hydrant flow data has been included within the previously
submitted water sewer letter report and indicates adequate capacity exists within the
existing water system along the 12"waterline within Beekman Street. The water sewer
letter report has been included within this submission for jour reference.
4. Comment: scale is unconventional and generally not standard practice. It will be allowed
for this project, however, please utilize conventional engineers scale for future submission.
Response: Comment noted. The intent of the 1"--6'scale was to utilize the 1"=60'scale
located on the engineers scale as a 1"=10'scale would have provided a site plan that
was unclear as the project parcel size is approximately 0.10+1- acres. Future
submission will include conventional scales provided on a typical engineering scale.
