The soil in the area under consideration is made up of <br />three main groups, Nunn, Denver and Kutch. These groups consist of <br />Ca1carous clay loam materials. The effect soils have on the project <br />is related to corrosion of pipe. These soils have a high corrosive <br />action on metal pipe and a low to moderately low corrosive action on <br />concrete pipe. All metal pipe materials used for the project should <br />be protected by some means to prevent corrosion. <br /> <br />Design <br /> <br />All proposed physical plans will be reviewed by the Denver Water <br />Department. Engineering standards are outl ined in "Engineering <br />Standards of the Board of Water Commi ss i oners, Denver, Colorado." <br />Fire protection ability will be reviewed by the Bancroft Fire District <br />and the Insurance Services Office. The Kelton Heights Water District <br />is presently planning on administering the engineering and construc- <br />tion contracts. <br /> <br />The DWD engineering standards include specifications for slzlng pipe <br />mains, hydraulic losses, line pressures, and protection against water <br />hammer. Minimum fire flow requirements and fire hydrant spacings are <br />specified by the Bancroft Fire District. Suggested fire flow require- <br />ments are estab1 ished by InsuranCe Services Office's "Guide For <br />Detennination of Required Fire Flow." <br /> <br />21 <br />
