TW New Area Development * REVIEW COMPLETED TP-PRE-0925-00196 (7755 S OLD VAIL RD TUCSON, AZ 85747)
KE&G Tucson Campus
Based on the information provided, Tucson Water has no objections to the proposed development and offers the following comments for your convenience:

Water service for this project will be provided by connecting to the existing 16" cement asbestos water main located on the west side of the parcel within the right-of-way along S. Old Vail Rd.

1. Additional information about the fire flow, the number, size and type of water meters needed for this development will need to be supplied to Tucson Water, to determine if modeling needs to be performed to verify the existing public water mains have the capacity necessary to serve the proposed development. This can be done via your interactions with the Tucson Water New Services Section
2. Any new on-site and off-site water mains needed to serve this development will need to be public water mains, constructed at the owner’s/developer’s expense.
3. When the fire flow requirements have been established by the local fire authority, the automatic sprinkler system demand, including the hose stream allowance, and the required fire flow are known, and a water fixture unit count has been conducted for the project using the 2018 International Plumbing Code, please contact Tucson Water’s New Services section by sending an e-mail to TW_COMMON@tucsonaz.gov to discuss:
• Potential points of connection to Tucson Water’s existing water distribution system. Please note that hydraulic modeling may need to be performed to verify which potential points of connection have the capacity necessary to serve the proposed development. If so, it can be arranged through Tucson Water’s New Services section.
• The number of water service lines, water meters, and meter sizes, necessary to serve this development.
• The advantages and disadvantages of installing the necessary water meters via Tucson Water’s Job Order Contract (JOC) process.
4. Note that a 10’ x 25’ easement is required for 3” or larger above ground meters, and 2” meters are the largest allowable underground meters.
5. If any other new domestic water, irrigation water, or fire water services are needed to serve this proposed development, please contact Tucson Water’s New Services Section by calling 520-791-5164 or by sending an email to TW_Common@tucsonaz.gov.

The above comments are based on the limited preliminary information provided by the applicant and should not be construed as a complete review of the proposal. Any questions, comments or concerns about these comments may be directed to:
