SSV&K No.: 22-6018
Enclosed please find (3) sets of plans revised in accordance with your comments
as set forth in your letter of October 13, 1983 to Mr. Harry Kamamis, P.E.,
Director, Mass Transit Coordination, N.Y.C.D.O.T.
In answer to Comment No. 12, the proposed 30" R.C.P. which replaces the existing
4'-0" X 2'-8" egg shaped brick sewer, carries the same flow as the 30" R.C.P.
upstream which was installed under M.T.A. Contract No. 1-02-21064-0-0. An
existing 6" C.I.P. force main and an existing 24" C.I.P. force main which tie
into the existing 4'-0" x 2'-8" egg shaped brick sewer are being relocated (see
Dwgs. C-UT 1 and CUT2.). The relocated force mains and the manhole (Manhole #2)
to which they connect will be owned and maintained by Amtrak. No other house
connections to the existing 4'-0" x 2'-8" egg shaped brick sewer to be replaced
are known to exist.
I have enclosed computations prepared during the design of M.T.A. Contract No.
1-02-21064-0-0 which indicate that the flow in the sewer rerouted under that
contract is 12.96 C.F.S.. As no additional flow is added to our proposed 30"
R.C.P. it will definitely be adequate to carry this flow (I have also enclosed
computations of the capacity of the proposed 30" R.C.P.). As the existing 6"
C.M.P. and 24" C.M.P. force mains are merely rerouted and then reconnected to
the City System, there will be no additional flow to any portion of the City
System.
