Add the tollowmg note to the general notes page:
All water, sewer and fire lines require NEW inspection and testing procedures. The ACSA performs any testing and
inspections of the public sewer and water main(s).
The Albemarle County Building Inspections Department(ACBID) does a visual inspection and witnesses the testing of the
building drain, water service pipe and the sprinkler lead-in connection.
The developer/contractor is responsible to retain a Special Inspector as outlined in the updated Albemarle County Policy for
Site Utilities to perform the visual inspection and testing of all utilities
not covered by the ACSA orACBID. This includes building sewers, water and fire line branches between the main and the
meter(s)/building (s).
The Special Inspector's report must be submitted and approved by the Albemarle County Engineering Department prior to a
Certificate of Occupancy being issued.
Add the following note to the general notes page:
Where the flood level rims of plumbing fixtures are below the elevation of the manhole cover of the next upstream manhole in
the public sewer, the fixtures shall be protected by a backwater valve installed in the building drain, branch of the building drain
or horizontal branch serving such fixtures. Plumbing fixtures having flood level rims above the elevation of the manhole cover of
the next upstream manhole in the public sewer shall not discharge through a backwater valve.
Add the following to the general notes page:
All roof drains shall discharge in a manner not to cause a public nuisance and not over sidewalks.
Note to developer:
Due to required distances from lot lines and structures as required by the NFPA, underground propane tanks may be
prohibited. Plan accordingly.
