Listed below are our comments for the above referenced development proposal:
I, The proposed development is within the Springfield city limits and currently receives water
service from the Springfield Utility Board (SUB), If additional water service is required please
ask the developer to contact the Springfield Utility Board Water Division,
2, The proposed washout area on the drawings is shown at the location of 3 water system valves,
These valves cannot be covered with fabric and/or rock. All water system facilities must be
visible and available for operation at all times.
3. Springfield has several wellhead protection areas. Ninety percent of Springfield's drinking water
comes from wells. In every instance, care shall be taken to prevent groundwater contamination.
Contractors/developers/owners shall be responsible for the safe handling and storage of
chemicals, petroleum products, fertilizers, and the prevention of groundwater and storm water
runoff contamination.
Special requirements may be necessary for groundwater protection at this development. Contact
Amy Chinitz at Springfield Utility Board Water Division for details at 726-2396.

4. Backflow prevention devices will be required for this service. Please contact Chuck Davis at
726-2396 prior to installing water service. Chuck can help in the selection of the most
economical device and location. Water service will not be provided until a backflow plan has
been submitted to SUB Water Engineering and approved for installation.
