Please see report below covering an examination of plans and specifications on the above-designated project. You are responsible for compliance with all aspects of the Minnesota Pool Code. This information is available at https://www.health.state.mn.us/communities/environment/recreation/pools/index.html No construction shall take place except in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. If it is desired to make deviations from the approved plans and specifications, the State Department of Health must be consulted and approval of the changes obtained before construction is started; otherwise such construction is carried out in violation of state rule, and in addition may create dangers to public health. SCOPE: This report covers the design of this project insofar as safety and sanitary quality of water for public bathing may be affected, and is based upon Minnesota Rules, part 4717.0100-4717.3900, Public Swimming Pools. The examination of plans is based upon the supposition that the data on which the design is based are correct, and that necessary legal authority has been obtained to construct the project. The responsibility for the design of structural features, the efficiency of equipment, and design of any features which the rules do not address must be taken by the project designer. Approval is contingent upon satisfactory disposition of any requirements included with this report. Special care should be taken to insure that the material used and the installation of the swimming pool is in accordance with the approved plans and provisions of the rules. SWIMMING POOL Outdoor Minimum Required Flow Rate = 187.5 gallons per minute, based on pool skimmers. Turnover, at minimum flow rate, = 5 hours 10 minutes. Pool Volume = 58,000 gallons. Pool Surface Area = 1878 square feet. Pool Depth Range = 3 feet to 5 feet 3 inches. 2 Filtration = Two 7.06 square foot, high-rate sand filter, * gpm/ft @ minimum flow rate.

Turnover, at minimum flow rate, = 30 minutes. Pool Volume = 2700 gallons. Pool Surface Area = 138 square feet.

In accordance with Minnesota Rule 4717.3675, Drinking Fountains must be provided in the pool area for pools over 1,600 square feet. 2. Please note the correct spa pool bather load above when ordering custom signage. The plan is incorrect at 19 bathers. 3. The north and south end depth markers were corrected to read the deepest water in the pool, 5 feet 3 inches, and must remain so. The other 4 sets that were also changed to 5 feet 3 inches, on the east and near west walls, must be changed again, to the accurate water depth at that marker, 3 feet out, 5 feet zero or 1 inch, depending on the exact install location. 4. Pool equipment rooms must have natural or mechanical ventilation. Independent, exterior discharge, mechanical ventilation is recommended. 5. The pool deck must be sloped away from the pool to drain at a grade of ¼-inch per lineal foot. The deck must have a nonslip, nonabsorbent surface. Ponding of water anywhere on the pool deck is unacceptable. Deck drains must have an indirect connection to the building or storm waste, or daylight to grade. NOTE(S): 1. The scope of this project consists of the construction of new outdoor swimming pool and spa pool at an apartment building. This construction includes the required deck, shower facilities and security provisions. 2. The Certified Trained Operator, as referenced in Minnesota Rule, part 4717.0650, should be present at the opening inspection. Authorization for construction in accordance with the approved plans may be withdrawn if construction is not undertaken within a period of two years. The fact that the plans have been approved does not necessarily mean that recommendations or requirements for change will not be made at some later time when changed conditions, additional information, or advanced knowledge make improvements necessary. Acceptance of public swimming pools cannot be given until inspection of the complete installation indicates compliance with the provisions of the regulation.
