inquiries have been made with the City to determine an appropriate point of connection for
the sanitary sewer line. All proposed utility work shall be shown on the site plan. Please

2. January 13, 2016 — A sanitary sewer line has been shown on the pians as well as a sewer
pump holding tank. Provided below are links to two handouts with information and submittal
requirements for either a sewer grinder pump or ejector pump. it is assumed the most recent
submittal includes a, grinder pump as it is located on the outside of the structure, however,
none of the required submittal information was provided. Design of a sewer grinder pump
will need to be completed by a licensed engineer and the process Is quite extensive. Please
follow the guidance provided in the handout should you choose to go this route.
Alternatively, you could consider using a sewer ejector system, which would be located
interior of the building. For additional information regarding, sewer ejector systems, please
review the handout and contact Andy Gahan at 426-771.0220 or by email —
andrew.gahan@edmondswa.gov with any additional questions you may have.

of connection to the existing plumbing with the home, or on the exterior to the existing
sanitary side sewer line serving the home. Indicate proposed pipe material and depth, All
connections shall be made on private property. 10 -foot separation shall be maintained
between the sanitary sewer and water service line. Please refer to City of Edmonds handouts
