| TW Hydraulic Modeling Review | REVIEW COMPLETED | 1. Tucson Water has no objections to the proposed development and offers the following comments for your convenience: 2. Tucson Fire has required the proposed new building be equipped with a fire suppression sprinkler system. Section BI05.3 of Appendix B to the 2018 International Fire Code states, “For buildings equipped with an approved automatic sprinkler system, the water supply shaII be capable of providing the greater of. a. The automatic sprinkler system demand, including hose stream allowance. b. The required fire flow.” The existing dead end 3” cement asbestos water main constructed in 1965 on the north end of these parcels which currently serves the existing buildings will not be able to meet this requirement. 3. The remaining existing building and the proposed new buildings will need to obtain both their potable water and the necessary fire suppression water from the existing 8” cement asbestos water main on the south side of Grant Road. 4. 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: Tim Rowe, P.E., Civil Engineer Tucson Water, New Development Section 201 N. Stone Avenue, #2-220 P.O.
