Mr. Besancon,
Your building permit application and plans dated 12-17-12 have been approved as drawn and per this
memo.All work must meet all applicable codes whether noted or not included within this memo.
Please follow up on the following items:
These items will need to be accomplished as the project moves forward and before rough inspections;
1. Final HERS rating.
2. Manual "J" calculations and if a warm air heating system is used a sheet metal permit is required
and line drawings of the duct system with CFMs of supply and returns.
3. Stamped engineering for all non prescriptive materials and or systems.Truss and LVLs.
As of August 4th 2011 the 8th Edition MA code is the 2009 IRC with MA amendments.
In the following are some generic requirements which seem to be problematic.
This is not intended to be comprehensive, nor is it a substitute for purchasing and reading the MA codes.
Read only international codes are available on line at http://publicecodes.cyberregs.com/icod/one
must also consider the MA amendments to these codes which can be found at www.mass.gov/dps/bbrs
The current relevant building codes are:
2009 IBC, 2009 IEBC, 2009 IMC, 2009 IRC, 2009 IECC,AA115, MA amendments.
Relevant items must be submitted to the building department for approvals before inspections and or
Certificates of Occupancy can be issued.

Building Commissioner Assistant Commissioner
HOME OWNER EXEMPTION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The State of Massachusetts allows the homeowner the right under 780CMR 108.3.4 to act as his/her
construction supervisor. The state defines "Homeowner" as, " Person(s) who owns a parcel on which
he/she resides or intends to be, a one or two family dwelling, attached or detached structures
accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A person who constructs more than one home in a two-
year period shall not be considered a home owner."
The building department for the City of Northampton wants any person(s)who seek to use the home
owner exemption, to act as their own construction supervisor, to be aware that by doing so you
become responsible for compliance with state building codes and regulations. The inspection
process requires that the building department be called to inspect work at various stages, which include
foundation/footings (before backfill), sonotube holes (before pour), a rough building inspection
(before work is concealed), insulation inspection (if required) and a final building inspection.
The building department requires these inspections before the work is concealed, failure to secure
these inspections can result in failure to obtain a certificate of occupancy until the work can be
inspected.
If the homeowner hires other trades to perform work (electrical, plumbing &gas) the homeowner will be
responsible to make sure that the trades hired secure their proper permits in conjunction to the building
permit issued, and that they get their required inspections. Failure of the individual trades to secure
the permits and inspections as required can DELAY the project until such time as the proper permits
and inspections are made
I, understand the above.
(Home owner/resident's signature requesting exemption)
I will call to schedule all required building inspections necessary for the building permit issued to me.
