M.E. Simpson Co., Inc. I Fire Hydrant Flow/Watermain Capacity Testing Program Page 4 Utility Observations The M.E. Simpson Co., Inc. Project Team will welcome having staff of the Utility observe field procedures while the flushing program is in progress. They will be happy to explain and demonstrate the equipment and techniques that are employed by M.E. Simpson Co., Inc. for calculations of fire flows. This may be useful for the staff of the Utility in understanding the parameters of hydrant flow testing, especially during an emergency such as a fire where proper flow is needed for the fire department. Final Reports, IDocurn ntatilun & Coimirnunications M.E„ Simpson Co., Inc, will perform thefollowing: Project Team will meet daily with assigned Utility personnel to go over areas of flow testing for prior workdays and plan current day and next two days' areas to flow test. At the end of each day, or as requested, a list of any broken or inoperable valves or hydrants will be turned in. Each step of the fire hydrant flow -testing program will be identified and the hydrants used for each flow -test will be documented in a fire hydrant flow -testing report. Maintain a progression map to be included with the final report of the project indicating areas flow tested and areas that have been tagged for flow testing. The Utility will be provided with flow information in Pro -IMaps""/Piro-HydranOl an electronic fire hydrant database. This documentation allows for the flow -testing program to be repeated at a later date. This electronic program is designed to be a complete system for your Utility to establish an effective fire hydrant flow testing, flushing and maintenance program. The electronic database provides an inventory record system, hydrant maintenance and scheduling. The database includes a complete hydrant flow - testing program for calculating flow test results. Pro -Maps1"/I3ro-Hydrant"' is a hydrant record database (ODBC). This data will be available in an electronic format to the Utility with the appropriate access. The data will be maintained offsite at a secure location. M.E. Simpson Co., Inc. can also provide the Piro-IMaps""/Pro-HydranV1, electronic database, that has the abilities to access and reproduce and edit all aforementioned hydrant location and flow testing information. This program will have the capability to generate upon demand: The individual Hydrant Flow Test reports that includes the flow test data, static pressure and residual pressure, and potential flow at 20psi. A summary listing of all Hydrants with identified defects. A complete listing of all Hydrants by numerical or indexed order. A complete listing of all Hydrants by alphabetically reference to street and cross street names. All pertinent information such as port size, number of ports, flow test results, general condition of the hydrant, and color coding for the NFPA rating. Hydrant location will be documented from existing landmarks and will be a part of each Hydrant record.
