RE: The Grove at Thomson Farms – New Development Response Letter
Mr. Gray,
Below are Ensign Engineering’s responses to the City of Rexburg Community Development
Department’s comments on The Grove at Thomson Farms project plans.
1. Sewer: Connection to mainline. 4” service must tie in ahead of manholes.
Sewer connections to mainlines have been updated to connect ahead of manholes.
2. Sewer: Services to lot(s).
We understand that this comment was left over and that nothing needs to be
addressed on the plans.
3. Water: Connection to main line. Water line on Hwy 33 is 16”. Hot tap existing
16” not cut and install tee.
Sheet C-501 and C-503 have been updated to call out existing 16” water line and
note to call out Hot tap existing and connect to existing w/ 16”x10” stainless steel
tapping sleeve and 10” gate valve.
Sheet C-505 has been left to call out Install 16”x10” TEE with (2) 16” butterfly valves
and (1) 10” gate valve per conversation with Joel on October 25th.
4. Storm: Catch basin type. Catch basin head/grate to be Neenah R-3067 in city
streets.
Neenah R-3067 has been added to all catch basins head/grates on public streets.
5. Storm: Infiltrators. Piping between catch basins cannot be under the curb. Pipe
is not required to be RCP pipe.
Storm Drain Cleanout boxes have been added to move pipes out from under curb
and gutter on public streets.
6. Site Lighting: Photometric layout. No lighting on plans. City streets require
lights at all intersections and not more than 400 ft between lights.
This sheet has now been included.

7. Water: Pipe Type. Use class 50 ductile iron not class 52.
All callouts referencing class 52 ductile iron pipe have been replaced to call out class
50 ductile iron pipe.
8. Storm: On-site retention. Not piping between catch basin under curb.
It was our understanding that this only applies to storm drain systems within the
public right-of-way. As such we have left these unchanged.
9. Miscellaneous Review. Area at northwest corner states City doing work but
should say the work is to be coordinated with City.
Note has been updated to “Improvements within this area are to be coordinated with
Rexburg City”.
10. Miscellaneous Review. Idaho PE Stamp not Utah Stamp.
Idaho PE Stamp has replaced the incorrectly used Utah Stamp.
Please contact me if you have additional questions.
Sincerely,
Jared Ford, P.E.
