1. Fire hydrants are required for this facility. 5 are required. I will count the one across the street, I
will county the eater storage tank as another since this facility was built before the water was
available out on US Hwy, 421. With tis stated, you will have to install a fire hydrant one at both
entrances, this will give you 4 hydrants. You will also need to add one on the property near the
rear of the new addition away from the structure at approximately 150 feet.
2. Will the pump and tank concept, deluge sprinkler system with this being a High Piled Storage
contents structure, handle the fire flow of this new facility addition.
3. Please supply me with an updated Fire hydrant layout
4. Check with New Hanover County Building Safety and see if Section 501 of the fire code
(Emergency Radio Coverage for First Responder) applies based on the size of the addition???
5. Upgrade the Guidelines of Appendix J – Building Info. Signage.
NHC Engineering, Galen Jamison 910-798-7072

1. Based upon the plat and scaling out the location of the well, it appears the well will be less than
25’ from the proposed foundation. In order to meet setbacks the foundation must be 25 feet or
greater from the well head or a well variance must be approved or a new well drilled and the
existing abandoned. Proposed addition must not increase employee number to more than 48
Maximum employees or 1200 GPD. Proposed addition must maintain 50’ to sidewalk on side with
water tank. This area is needed to meet setbacks for the designated septic repair area. It appears
through scaling of the plat that there is sufficient room for repair. The addition will not affect any
surrounding properties well or septic systems.
