RE: Stromberg's Restaurant 2 Bridge Street Mr. Walter Power, III, Chairman Salem PlanniR^a Board _ One Salem Green Salem, MA 01970 Dear Mr. Power: In your letter of August 2, 1978 you refered to the. Board of Health concern regarding the status of a basement floor drain that flows to the sea. I would like to add to my letter of August 14, 1978, the following from the State Plumbing Code: 15.10 SUMPS AND EJECTORS 15.10.1 Building Drains Below Building Sewer "Building drains which cannot be discharged to the sewer by gravity flow shall be discharged into a tightly covered and vented sump, from which the contents shall be lifted and discharged into the building gravity drainage system by automatic pumping equipment or by any equally efficient method approved by the Inspector. Only drains located below the building sewer shall discharge into sumps. All other drains shall be discharged by gravity." . I hope this section will help to clarify the method of cleaning up any condition that the Board of Health may find objectionable. GEO:tc cc: Mike Moniz Robert Blenkhorn, Very truly yours George E.

The pipe today is not used for a waste for the restaurant, and possibly it could be capped off to seal it in a way that it could be used if necessary by the restaurant as a drain to rid the basement of any ground water.
