Hi Natalee,
Yes please use IFC for fire flow demand. And as you have noted, 2000 gpm is very attainable with our city water system.

I just wanted to check back in with the questions I had below as we are wanting to try and submit our plans back
to the City this week…. Do we just use our standard IFC Code?

Mikaela,
When looking into the city design standards we ran into a question regarding the following. It mentions
that “Fire Flow demand as determined by ISO (Insurance Services Office)”, generally we use the IFC code…. I am
unsure what ISO is or what their code would be…
Per IFC code our fire flow demand is 4,000 GPM (which with our building being fire sprinkled our
minimum requirement cuts in half (or giving it a 50% reduction) leaving 2,000 GPM).
Could you give me any further information about what ISO is or if we are correct in using IFC standard
code? The picture below mentions what is referenced above. Please let me know if you have any questions for
me. Thank you for your help it is greatly appreciated.
Best,

Hi Natalee,
I can provide the fire hydrant flow and pressure from our model (See attached pdf and spreadsheet)
The HGL is reported at an elevation of 5125 in the area. You can find other helpful water distribution system
information on our infrastructure viewer, I have attached a link to that viewer below:
https://gisweb.bozeman.net/Html5Viewer/?viewer=infrastructure#
Calculate the demands per the City Design Standards Manual as directed in the engineering comments (DSSP
Section V, V.A.4. has some helpful metrics/reporting criteria).
City Design standards and facilities plans can be found at the link below:

Let me know if you need anything else,

Mikaela,
Thank you for your timely response to our questions we appreciate you looking into those things for us.
I do have another question and wasn’t sure if you or Griffin would better to contact. For the water design report
you mentioned was required (Under Water and Wastewater – Comment 1.) We are needing information for the
following in order to complete our report:
· HGL (Elevations)
· Pressures
· Is there a Standard way for Calculating Demands?
Please let me know ASAP if this is something you can help us with.
Best,
Natalee Eaton

Good afternoon Natalee,
Thank you for the meeting breakdown.
Please see the city responses below;
· Please send City Code Form for BMC38.270.030 (C)(D) (Comment - General 1. DSSP Fire Service Line)- At
present there is no (form) per say detailing what is required for concurrent construction per city code,
the code was recently updated and below is the interpretation/deliverables that we have been
requesting at this time:
o BMC 38.270.030.D – The applicant has requested concurrent construction for the public
infrastructure with the project. In certain circumstances, the issuance of a building permit may
be allowed prior to completion of the public infrastructure, provided that the following criteria
are met:
Subsequent to preliminary plat or plan approval, a concurrent construction plan,
addressing all requirements of this section, must be submitted for review and approval
of the community development director in consultation with the city engineer and with
a recommendation from the development review committee.
The following deliverables must be completed prior to concurrent construction
approval:
· The property owner must enter into an improvements agreement to ensure the
installation of required infrastructure and other applicable improvements, to be
secured by any security or securities found in section 38.279.080;
· The developer must provide and maintain hazard and commercial general
liability insurance;
· The developer must recognize, acknowledge and assume the increased risk of
loss because certain public services do not exist at the site;
· The developer must execute a hold harmless and indemnification agreement
indemnifying, defending and holding harmless the city, its employees, agents
and assigns from and against any and all liabilities, loss, claims, causes of action,
judgement and damages resulting from or arising out of the issuance of a
building permit under this section;
· The applicant must provide written approval from the fire department (Scott
Mueller) that adequate fire protection services are available from existing
hydrants, and water supply exists to meet needs during construction.
· Please email Griffin Nielsen on if a Sewer Drainage report will be necessary for this submittal or if it will
be a condition of approval. See Attachments for further information. (Comment – Water and
5
Wastewater 2. DSSP Section (V)(B) Design Report)- I convened with Griffin on 8/23/21. A sewer report
will not be needed as the method used for the sewer calc. provided produces a peak flow that is
generally higher than the DSSP/WW Facilities Plan method. This peak flow was run through the recently
updated WW model and the proposed flows from the subject property are adequately handled by the
existing sewer conduit system per the model report.
· Please review the Stormwater Drainage Report (Grayson Smith will email this to you in a separate
email.) (Comment – Stormwater 1. DSSP Section II/BMC38.410.080/BMC40.04.700(A)(5))- The storm
water report was adequate per my review on 8/20/21.
Please reach out if you have any additional inquiry’s based on this information. I look forward to your
resubmission and moving forward.
Thanks all,
City of Bozeman MT
