If you feel that an item is not applicable to your project, note “N/A” and discuss the reason with the plan checker.Please indicate the sheet number and detail to the right of each correction, or note the number on the plans where the correction is made. Resubmit marked original, calculations and this correction sheet. A separate sheet for response may be used.Resubmit 3corrected sets of plans.Meetings between the project applicant/designer and the plan reviewer shall be by appointment only. Please call (714) for an appointment.The drawings/information submitted for Building Safety Division review is incomplete. The applicant shall, prior to resubmitting, complete all construction documents to show compliance with the 2010 California Building Standards Code with local amendments and to clearly indicate the scope of work under this building permit application. There may be additional requirements when complete construction drawings and supporting data is submitted for Building Safety Division review. The applicant shall obtain clearances/approvals for the following, prior to building permit issuance: -Planning Division approval on the corrected/final set of drawings (647-5804). Previously approved plans should be submitted to expedite the process. -Police Department approval on the corrected/final set of drawings (647-5840). -Public Works Agency approval (647-5039). - School District Compliance Certificate; and a copy of the building permit application, signed by the plan check engineer, shall be required by the School District to verify the scope of the work. -Grading Permit. Application is made through the Building Safety Division (647-5800) and the plan review is by the Public Works Agency (647-5039). Provide a fully dimensioned Site Plan on the drawings and on a separate 8-1/2" x 11" sheet of paper. This project is in a special flood hazard area designated on the flood insurance rate map (FIRM) as zone A. This zone requires that the lowest finish floor elevation (including basement) of the structure shall be at (or above) base flood elevation determined by a hydrology study for the A zone. All elevations must be referenced to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum. Reference should be made to the Flood Plain Management Ordinance, Santa Ana Municipal Code, Chapter 7, for complete requirements. Drawings shall show compliance with said ordinance including noting flood zone and finish floor elevation. Note on plans: "A Federal Emergency Management Agency National Flood Insurance Program ELEVATION CERTIFICATE shall be completed by a California Licensed Land Surveyor or California Registered Civil Engineer who is authorized to practice land surveying. The completed ELEVATION CERTIFICATE must be submitted to the Building Inspector at the time of foundation inspection, and a final certificate must be submitted at the time of final inspection." Get the Base Flood Elevation for All New Development in Zone A Any new development or substantial improvement within Zone A needs to have a BFE determined as part of the application process. To start, you’re required to look through what already exists. Here are all the possible places you’ll find data that could provide the BFE: Check the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM), Flood Insurance Study and municipal records, and check with your Regional Floodplain Manager regarding records and studies. Contact your Regional Floodplain Manager to see if FEMA, US Geological Survey, Army Corps of Engineers, National Resources Conservation Service, or Housing and Urban Development have conducted studies to determine BFE data for the site. The USGS may have also documented high water marks. If a body of water forms a boundary between two communities, the community on the other side may have a detailed study. Such base flood data are valid for both sides of a body of water. Existing State studies, including VTrans hydraulics studies for any nearby bridge or major culvert might provide BFE. Hydro-power dams likely have a study providing BFE for their federal license. You could use data from any of these studies as long as they: reasonably reflect flooding conditions expected during the base flood, are not known to be technically incorrect, and represent the best data available. If the BFE Doesn’t Already Exist, Hire Someone to Determine It If none of the sources above are able to provide the BFE, the next step is likely to require the property owner or developer to commision a study to determine it. This requires hiring a surveyor or engineer and provides information about the channel and local valley cross-sections, hydrology, and hydraulics. Detailed studies typically use modeling programs such as the US Army Corps of Engineers HEC-RAS. The people conducting this study should review FEMA’s document on Managing Floodplain Development in Approximate Zone A Areas. The Hydrology and Hydraulic report was incomplete/insufficient for determining the base flood elevation (BFE). Zone A floodplains are those areas have not determined Base Flood Elevation (BFE). Below are some useful information provided on Official Vermont Government Website for your use. (Copied from the website: https://floodtraining.vermont.gov/protection-tools/zone-a) Sheet A1: Lot shall be graded to drain surface water away from foundation walls. The grade shall fall a minimum of 6” within the first 10’ (5%). Please revise site plan accordingly – coordinate with the grading plan. Please revise job address to the half (1/2) address. Please note on plan: Minimum 2.24 KWdc photovoltaic system will be installed prior to final inspection sign-off. The Photovoltaic system will be submitted under a separate submittal. Sheet A2: Floor Plan: Please show/provide smoke and carbon monoxide alarm at the hallway. Electrical Note #6: Please revise note to include circuits supplying receptacle outlets in kitchen area to be protected with AFCI. Geotechnical Review: Final foundation plan and details shall be submitted to the geotechnical engineer of record for review and approval. The foundation plan should be “review” stamped by the geotechnical engineer of record.
