Tooele City, System #23004, File #15419
Dear Jamie Grandpre:The Division of Drinking Water (the Division) received the plans and specifications for the proposed 3100 North and SR-36 Backbone Water Line (DS001) from you on
June 27, 2024.This project has met the conditions for receiving a plan approval.
Our understanding of the project includes the following:
The project includes the installation of approximately 22 fire hydrants, 2,600 feet of 8-inch and 16-inch diameter C900 PVC, and other appurtenances. This part of the project will not
be connected to the drinking water system until a later phase is completed. This is the first phase of a multi-phase project to connect this area to the Tooele City public water system.
The project is anticipated to add approximately 311 ERCs during the initial phase. The entire Perry Development is estimated to add 6,470 ERCs plus another 2,627 ERCs in other areas
for 9,097 ERCs. Additional source capacity, storage capacity, and transmission will be required to serve these connections into full build-out while meeting minimum requirements.
A hydraulic modeling analysis certification stamped and signed by Katie Gibson Jacobsen, P.E., dated May 29, 2024, was received for this project.
The water lines are identified as DS001 in the Division’s database.
We have completed our review of the plans and specifications, stamped, and signed byThomas M. Romney, P.E., dated May 13, 2024,and find they basically comply with the applicable portions
of Utah’s Administrative Rules for Public Drinking Water Systems in R309. On this basis, the plans for 3100 North and SR-36 Backbone Water Line (DS001) are hereby approved.
This approval pertains to construction only. An Operating Permit must be obtained from the Director before 3100 North and SR-36 Backbone Water Line (DS001) may be put into service. A
checklist outlining the items required for operating permit issuance is enclosed for your information.Approvals or permits from the local authority or the county may be necessary before
beginning construction of this project. As the project proceeds, notice of any changes in the approved design, as well as any change affecting the quantity or quality of the delivered
water, must be submitted to the Division. We may also conduct interim and final inspections of this project. Please notify us when actual construction begins so that these inspections
can be scheduled.
This approval must be renewed if construction has not begun or if substantial equipment has not been ordered within one year of the date of this letter.
If you have any questions regarding this approval, please contact Chris Martin, P.E., of this office, at [phone], or me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Michael Newberry, P.E.
