<br />Page 19 <br /> <br />in a format consistent with the “Calculation Form – District Rational Method” available in the <br />manual. The calculations shall demonstrate adequate freeboard given the design storm event <br />assuming all bioretention areas are overflowing. Said calculations shall be prepared, stamped, <br />and signed by a California-licensed civil engineer. (Address this condition prior to plan approval) <br /> <br />95. EMERGENCY OVERLAND STORMWATER FLOW/SUMP PROPERTIES: All properties shall <br />be designed with an emergency overland flow path to direct storm runoff to the nearest public <br />street or open flood control facility in the event on-site pipes become plugged. The flow path <br />shall be lower than the finish floor elevation of all habitable structures. The flow path cannot rely <br />on neighboring properties unless a storm drain easement across the neighbor is obtained. <br />Sump properties must be designed to discharge the 50-year recurrence interval storm event <br />through the pipe network before habitable structures become inundated. (Address this condition <br />prior to plan approval) <br /> <br />96. POTABLE WATER SYSTEM DESIGN STANDARDS: All permanent connections to the City’s <br />potable water network shall conform to Pleasanton Municipal Code §14.04.050. Any required <br />water pressure and/or flow needed by the applicant beyond that available from the network at <br />the point-of-connection must be provided by the applicant as a private improvement on the <br />customer side of the meter or backflow prevention device. All extensions or upgrades to the <br />potable water network shall be designed to satisfy the following minimum standards: <br /> <br />a. Minimum number of valves: <br />i. 3 at cross intersections <br />ii. 2 at “T” intersections <br />iii. 500 feet maximum spacing <br />iv. 1 valve at each fire hydrant lateral <br />v. Pressure regulating valve station required between pressure zones <br />b. Minimum number of fire hydrants (subject to approval by Livermore-Pleasanton Fire <br />Department (LPFD) Fire Marshal: <br />i. 1 hydrant within 250 feet of any existing or proposed structure <br />ii. 2 hydrants within 500 feet of any commercial, multi-family residential, <br />industrial, or school building <br />c. Minimum pipe size: 8-inch diameter <br />d. Minimum depth of cover over pipe: 42 inches <br />e. Blowoff requirements: <br />i. At all dead ends whether temporary or permanent <br />ii. At all low points in the line <br />f. Maximum flow velocity: 10 feet per second (fps) <br />g. Minimum fire flows in gallons per minute (gpm): <br />i. 1,500 gpm for 2 hours (rural residential) <br />ii. 2,000 to 2,500 gpm for 2 hours (single family residential) <br />iii. 2,500 gpm for 2 hours (multi-family residential) <br />iv. 2,500 gpm for 2 hours (social/recreation) <br />v. 3,500 gpm for 2 hours (schools/commercial/public/institutional) <br />vi. 4,000 gpm for 4 hours (industrial in the lower pressure zone only) <br />vii. 5,000 gpm for 4 hours (industrial in all other pressure zones) <br />h.
