Underground Wet-Utilities to be Plotted in Color:
Effective Monday, November 20th, we are requiring the water, sewer, reuse water, and storm drain linework on all new civil improvement plan submittals to be color-coded. This applies to both existing and proposed infrastructure. Lines and appurtenance symbols should be color-coded as indicated below. Associated notes may be in black.
- Water - Blue (AutoCAD Color Index 5 or equivalent)
- Sewer - Medium Green (AutoCAD Color Index 62 or equivalent)
- Reuse Water - Dark Purple (AutoCAD Color Index 194 or equivalent)
- Storm Drain - Orange (AutoCAD Color Index 30 or equivalent)
Please contact Utility Services with any questions at 702-267-3670.
This will enable our staff to easily compare the revision to the original approved design either side by side, or utilizing the overlay function of our review software, and will result in more efficient, and accurate, reviews.
Mark Up Summary No Longer Provided
Due to recent internal system updates, a separate “markup summary” in PDF format will not be provided with the civil review redlines. However, a list of all markups will be available on the DSC Online Portal by viewing the “Attachments” screen of the permit and selecting “markups” on the file labeled with an exclamation point as shown below.
Updated Response to Comments and Resubmittal Requirements
Effective November 20th, based on the recommendations of the Best Practices Guide for Quality Plan Submittals released by the Nevada Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors (NVBPELS – Nevada Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors), a “response to comments” document is required to be compiled and submitted with every subsequent review (across all civil permit types, including revisions). This must either be in the form of a letter or a comment matrix (page #, comment, reviewer, engineer’s response). All written (i.e., text-based) comments require a written response and/or explanation. This is a clarification and expansion of an existing requirement.
The “response to comments” filename should be in the following format, “Response to (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) Review” or “Response to (V1, V2, V3, etc.)”.
Swapping Out Plans Already Under Review
Effective immediately, due to recent internal system updates and based on the recommendations of the Best Practices Guide for Quality Plan Submittals released by the Nevada Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors, plans submitted for review cannot be “swapped out” or replaced during the review process. If corrections or additional design changes are made by the design team during the review period, they may request that the current review be withdrawn, then new plans may be submitted, and a new review will start based on the submittal date of the revised/corrected plans.
Please contact Public Works Land Development with any questions at 702-267-3680.
Final Review No Longer on Weekly Calendar
Effective immediately, the final review on a civil improvement plan will no longer start at the beginning of the following week. Instead, they will be entered into final review on the next business day. This innovative change to this process will save our customers as much as a week in some cases.
Please contact Land Development at pweplan@cityofhenderson.com if you have any questions in regard to this change.
