".00LEY DICKINSON HOSPITAL
DARTMOUTH-HITCHCOCK ALLIANCE
September 14, 2004
Anothy L. Patillo, CBO
Building Commissioner
212 Main Street— Room 100
Northampton, MA 01060- 3189
Dear Mr. Patillo:
On Monday September 20, 2004 the hospital will begin Phase one of the
infrastructure project. As you know this work is the installation of utility piping to
supply the new wing. Our schedule is to complete this work in January 15, 2005.
During the Four phases of construction the road that accesses the back of the
hospital will be closed to thru traffic. On Tuesday September 14, 2004 1 meet with
Fire Chief Duggan regarding the exact locations for the road blockage. Chief
Duggan has approved the barrier location based on building access for fire
equipment. The hospital will be supplying the Fire Department with a map that
provides the locations of the barriers and the length of time required for the
completion of each phase of the infrastructure project. Chief Duggan is satisfied
with 8.5 x 11 drawing that he can share with his watch command.
As a result of changes at the receiving dock area that were required to allow
24 x 7 access to the receiving area a fire hydrant presently located at the road
edge by parking lot "B" is in conflict with the passage of tractor-trailer traffic. I
have spoken with Chief Duggan about temporarily removing this fire hydrant
during phase one and reinstalling the hydrant during phase two in a location of
his choice. He has agreed to this action and has indicated on a map his new
desired location and CDH is currently in the process of taking out the required
fire department permit.
As a follow-up to our annunciator panel meeting a few weeks ago Chief Duggan
and I have spoken about the direction the hospital has been taking in an effort to
provide documents that show exit routes and large area's that can then be used
to pin point specific equipment addresses. This is work that needs to be
accomplished in preparation for the LED alarm indicator that will be installed at
the FACP. We expect to complete the verification and have large-scale drawings
available for to the Fire Department to review by the end of September. The chief
has also requested that we label all activation devices with 1" x 1" red tags with
white letters that identify the device address number which is the same number
that will appear on the FACP. All newly installed devices will be label per his
request and we will be working to convert all existing devices to this same
system
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to give me a call
Sincerely
orm Welch
Director of Facilities
