| FYI | BATTERIES SYSTEMS SHALL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 608 OF THE IFC 2009:
1. The batteries shall have venting caps to relieve pressure, which is often Hydrogen gas.
2. VRLA or other sealed non-venting caps shall be equipped with resealing flame arresting safety caps.
3. Lithium Ion and Lithium metal polymer batteries shall not require vented caps.
4. VRLA and Lithium -ion and lithium metal polymer battery systems shall be provided with a listed device or other approved method to preclude, detect or control Thermal runaway.
5. Battery systems shall be permitted in the same room or area as they equipment they support.
6. Battery systems shall be housed in a non-combustible locked cabinet or enclosure to prevent unauthorized personnel from accessing the system.
7. Enclosures of stationary battery systems shall comply with the IBC. When stationary batteries are installed in separate equipment room accessible only to authorized personnel, they shall be permitted to be installed on an open rack for ease of maintenance.
8. Spill control and a means of spill response shall be provided.
9. An approved method of control and cleaning up the spill shall be provided.
10. Ventilation shall be provided in accordance with the IMC. Ventilation systems shall ventilate the floor area of the room at a minimum of 1 cfm/sq. ft. and shall be provided on a continuous basis.
11. The ventilation system shall be designed to limit the maximum concentration of Hydrogen 1% of the total volume of the room.
12. Temperature Control shall be provided to maintain safe operating conditions of the batteries.
13. Signs and placards shall be appropriately posted.
14. Seismic protection shall be provided for the battery storage system in accordance with the IBC.
15. Approved smoke detection shall be provided.
*** ALL ABOVE ITEMS ADDRESSED AND COMPLIANT PER IFC 2009, ON PLAN SHEET A1, DATED 2/15/13. ALSO ReReviewed by PPRBD and released for permit 2/22/13.

| Attention | ATTENTION ATTENTION
608.6.3 Mechanical ventilation systems shall be supervised at an approved central proprietary or remote station service or shall initiate an audible and visual signal at a constantly attended on-site location.
ATTENTION ****** THIS IS REQUIRED TO BE COMPLIANT WITH CODE
*** This section requires the supervision of both the required room and cabinets ventilation where mechanical systems are employed to provide notification of a system failure--to provide warning and reduce hydrogen concentration to build to hazardous levels.
*** This item shall be compliant per plan sheet A4. Discussion with architect and owner states monitoring likely to go through on site security.
