37. A sprinkler system complying with UBC Standard 38-1 and/or NFPA Standard 13 must be provided. Plans for any such system must be submitted to the Building Department and the Everett Fire Department for examination and approval. Such plans must include plans for the underground mains that will supply the sprinkler system. As of Janaury, 1991, sprinkler system permits are issued by the Building Department. Plan review fees are assessed by the Building Department. No fee is assessed by the Fire Department. Above ground sprinkler piping must be hydrostatically tested as established in NFPA Standard 13. Underground piping must be hydrostatically tested and flushed as established in NFPS Standard 24 for private fire mains. All such tests must be witnessed by a Fire Department inspector. Call 259-8710 to make an appointment for inspection. Contractors' materials and test certificates must be submitted to the Everett Fire Department prior to issuance of any Certificates of Occupancy. Call 259-8726 for more information. 38. A fire alarm system is required for this project. Fire alarm systems shall be installed and tested according to Uniform Fire Code and NFPA standards. Plans shall be submitted to the Everett Fire Department for approval, and work shall be done under permit from the City of Everett Building Department. 39. A portable fire extinguisher with a minimum UL rating of 2A must be provided within 75 feet travel distance on each floor of all portions of each building during construction. 40. The Uniform Fire Code requires that all new structures provide Fire Department access roads to within 150 feet of all portions of the ground floor. Fire Department access roads (fire lanes) must provide a minimum of 20 feet in width of unobstructed, all season driving surface, with minimum vertical clearance of 13'6". Fire lanes must be posted and maintained as required by the Fire Department. 41. The premises must be clearly identified by address at the street entry. Each building must be clearly identified so as to be visible and legible from the access road. Individual apartments must be clearly and legibly identified. 42. When access to or within a structure or an area is unduly difficult because of secured openings or where immediate access is necessary for life saving or fire-fighting purposes, the Fire Department may recommend or require a key box to be installed in an accessible location. A rapid entry system may also be desirable in order to avoid unnecessary damage while making entry to any building during an emergency. Please call 259-8726 for further information. 43. The City of Everett prohibits outdoor burning. Therefore, outdoor burning for the purpose of disposing of construction debris or rubbish will not be permitted. 6
