(C) If the water main will cross any streams,
rivers, or other bodies of water.
(D) If the project area has a history of
external corrosion problems.
(7) Information describing how the water main
will be anchored at:

as determined by use of the methods described in
327 IAC
8-3.3-3.
(13) The number and type of service
connections added by the water main extension and the corresponding fire flow,
average and peak daily customer demand, and the peaking factor as determined by
use of the methods described in
327
IAC 8-3.3-2.
(14) Flow test information indicating the
flowrate, static pressure, residual pressure, date and time of flow test,
elevation of flow test location, and the lengths, material types, and diameters
of the water main from the flow test location to the point of connection to the
water main extension.
(b)
In addition to the certifications on the application for construction permit
required in
327 IAC
8-3-3, a certification signed and dated by the public
water system certifying the public water system has agreed to furnish drinking
water to the water main extension and that the public water system has
acknowledged the responsibility for examining the application, plans, and
specifications to determine that the water main extension meets local rules,
laws, regulations, and ordinances shall be provided with each application for
water main extension covered by this rule.
(c) The plans required to be submitted, with

327 IAC
8-3-3, must bear, on each page of the plans, a dated
signature and seal of a professional engineer and must include the following:

and lot boundaries.
(2) Location of
existing and proposed water main pipes indicating the lengths, diameters, and
material types of the water main pipes.
(3) Location of existing and proposed
hydrants, isolation valves, road casings, blow-off assemblies, and other
accessories.
(4) Location of
proposed reaction blocking.
(5)
Location of existing and proposed sanitary sewers, storm sewers, and
culverts.
