7. PROGRAM:

  • Alex Robles and Ken Pearson have retired from the SDFD;
  • SDFD to hire 3 more plan / field inspectors. New inspectors will be performing both duties as part of their training based on SDFD's desire to have them understand what is on paper and what is in the field;
  • Gary Allen is the new field supervisor reporting to Sergio Pereira. Mike Benoit is the “go to” guy for official rulings and code interpretations;
  • Policy changes that will be available for review on the SDFD website: (there is a link on www.sdfpa.org):

o        Underground plans from a civil engineer will now be required to have all of the pertinent fire supply/installation information on the drawings - including backflow detailing, sizes, thrust blocks, etc. 

o        All backflows not within a reasonable distance from the property line must have a stamped approval on the fire site installation plan prior to submitting to the fire dept.

o        All underground fire service mains must be stamped by the FD prior to the fire sprinkler submittal and also must be submitted along with the fire sprinkler plans.

o        TI's that require a higher hazard classification and/or require the use of a larger K sprinkler, must be submitted with calc's.

o        PRV's for high rise applications will now be required to be set @125psi @250gpm at the outlet side of the valve.  Reduced from the 300gpm requirement.  SDFD recommends the use of the nw Elkhart valve.

o        100psi @500 gpm will still be the policy at the roof, for FD engine testing only.

o        The '02 amendments will be the policy until the changes to the '04 amendments has been posted, but assume that any future application should be applied based on the new '04.
