A copy of the approved plan shall be on the job site throughout construction and shall be modified by the contractor to show as -built conditions. It is the contractor's responsibility to provide this information to you and your consultant for use in developing the final as -built plan, which shall be submitted in the format of one paper copy and one mylar copy. A preconstruction conference is required prior to the start of construction. I can be reached at 977-4511 to schedule the meeting. The preconstruction conference will help to ensure project coordination, clarify ACSA requirements pertaining to construction, and answer any questions you may have. All offsite easements must be acquired before a preconstruction conference will be scheduled. We have also enclosed copies of our "Utility Inspection Policy," "Letter of Dedication," and "As -Built Guide" for your information. These documents should be reviewed before the preconstruction conference. A water and sewer construction inspection fee will be invoiced to you at the completion of the project. The inspection fee for this project is $1,108.38 for the water system and $1,184.04 for the sewer system, for a total of $2,292.42. A plan review fee will be invoiced to you within the next few days. It will be based upon the actual time of plan review billed at the current hourly rate established by the Board of Directors of the ACSA. At the end of the project, you will also be invoiced for an as -built plan review fee. It will be billed in the same manner as the plan review fee. The ACSA cannot set permanent water meters until construction has been completed and approved for operation. The utility easements shall be reviewed and approved prior to recordation. Copies of the deed of easement, plat, as -built plan and Letter of Dedication shall be submitted as soon as possible following installation of the utility systems. Timely submission of these documents will help you avoid delays in receiving utility service. Please be advised the Albemarle County Department of Community Development is instructed to hold the water bond amount at a minimum value of 20% of the original amount until the dedication of the utility systems is completed. 168 Spotnap Road • Charlottesville, VA 22911 * Tel (434) 977-4511 • Fax (434) 979-0698 www.serviceautkority.org The ACSA has reviewed the proposed development and has determined that as of this date there is an adequate supply of water and/or adequate sewer capacity to serve the development. Water and/or sewer connections to the ACSA system are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis at the time connection fees are paid. The ACSA does not reserve capacity in its system for a specific project. Approval of water and/or sewer utilities for this project does not constitute a guarantee of future service. The plan approval is valid for a period of 18 months. If construction is not in progress at the end of the approval period, the approval shall be void. The contractor shall be responsible to comply with the no -lead regulation regarding brass fittings that is effective on January 4, 2014 (Senate Bill 3874 which amends the Safe Drinking Water Act). The contractor shall also be required to comply with the ACSA's Approved Products List. The most current version of this list can be found on the ACSA's website at www.serviceauthorit-Y.or-q/Specs/ApprovedProductsList.pdf.
