RE: occupancy Inspection at 815 North 28th Street, Springfield, 0regon
Dear Li nda,
0n December 14 , !982 a joint inspection was performed by the City Building Division
and the Fire Pievention Bureau to determine the suitability of the existing building
at the above location for possible relocation of your dome manufacturing and office
facilities.
This inspection revealed that the following items are required prior to occupancy
of the building for your proposed use:
1) The 1979 Edition of the Uniform Fire Code, as amended by the City of Spring-. field August 4, 1981, requires that the building be provided with a fire
sprinklei system, complying withNFPA Standards, to be used for the proposed
H-3 occupancy classification (Section 10.309-c).
2)
Coordinate this requirement with Mike Hudman of the City Fire Prevention
Bureau, phone 726-3737.
Section 908 of the State Structural Specialty Code and Fire and Life Safety
Code (S.S.C.) requires that equipment or machinery which generates or emits
combustible or explosives dust or fibers shall be provided wi!h an adequate
dust collecting and exhaust system instal'led in conformance with U.B.C. Stan-
dard No. 9-3. - For reference I have attached a copy of Uniform Building Code
Standard No. 9-3. I recommend that, due to the techn'ical nature of a dust re-
rnoval system, you contact an engineer famil'iar with the requirements and have
a system enginbered to meet youi partjcular needs. Please coordinate thjs re-
quirement with both the City Bu'ilding Division and F'ire Prevention Bureau.
The south wall of th'is build'ing is constructed adjacent to the property line,
and therefore requires a parapet(S.S.C. Section 1709). In-lieu-of q parapet
the Fire Prevention Bureau has agreed to accept a box alarm as an alternate
rnethod of satisfying this requ'irement. Please coord'inate this requirenrent
with the City Fire Preventfon Bureau.
Since the adjacent property to the south of this bui'lding is a mobile home
park, we are concerned about noise generated by your manufacturing operation
disturbing the adjacent residents.

vent debris from being swept into the Storm Sewer. 0.S.P.S.C., Section 304
Coordinate these requirements with the Plumbing Inspector, phone 726-3665.
6) The City Electrical Inspector, Charlie Watson, recommends that you have an e'lec-trical contractor estimate the total power requirements for new 3 phase service
equipment capable of serving your machinery. Coordinate this requirement withthe Electrical Inspector, phone 726-3662.
Questions regarding these items may be directed to me at 726-3669.
