PUNCHLTST AND OCCUPANCY OF A, B & E Paul explained there was a meeting with the fire department today. They tested the fire alarm system and it performed as required . There was a glitch with the fire door and Stone needs the electrician to re set it . They will meet again tomorrow with the fire department to test it again. The fire department also wanted all the exit hardware on doors checked. Bill Hauck said the door should come down slowly and it didn' t , it releases and drops . Joel was waiting for the test results of the generator before electrical sign off . Paul now has that information. Joel was also waiting for certification of lightning ground system and he is satisfied with the letter from the factory. There needs to be an infra red testing of the main panel board but we don' t have enough load to do the test adequately. They will wait for the building to be up and running to do it . Plumbing- there are a few punch list items above the ceiling . The lead testing came back at acceptable levels today. There is one drinking fountain that has elevated cooper level . Elias said the cooper level is insignificant but they should still flush the water fountains for 24 hours and then they will be ' re-sample . Weston and Sampson does not for see a problem with this because the tanks are all empty in the sewage treatment plant . Paul explained that last week the sewage treatment plant backed up because the painters were dumping their waste down the sewage drains . The plant couldn' t handle it . This required Stone to pump it out and they brought it to the Yarmouth school plant . 3
