BBX contractor's yard (SDP200800061)
The certified engineer's report for BBX Corporation has been reviewed. This report is a good general
description, but a little more specific information is needed with regard to BBX in particular;
Please provide actual data on the equipment of BBX Corporation. Please provide a floor plan for the
operation showing the working areas, openings, storage of hazardous materials, spill containment areas and
physical safety barriers or measures. MSDS information for fuels, greases, oils, gases, cleaners and other
items stored and used in the operation should be provided. Actual manufacturer's data for new equipment,
and actual testing of existing equipment for noise levels, as well as physical barriers and distances to
property lines and neighbors should be provided. These should all be compared to allowable levels at the
property lines. Water pollution will be a concern from grease traps, and discharges will need to be
specified. Discharging these into the sanitary drainfield is not typically permitted, and they have the
potential to kill biofilters. Any flood lighting, security lighting or building lighting should be specified, as
these are the most frequent sources of glare. Lastly, all state and federal permits or correspondence, such
as for DEQ, EPA or other agencies should be included.
