Hurricane Season is almost here! – Have you had your storm drains inspected yet?

Hurricane Season is almost here! – Have you had your storm drains inspected yet?

Hurricane Season is almost here!

Hurricane season runs from:

June 1, 2022 through November 30, 2022

Have you had your storm drains inspected yet?
During a hurricane or tropical storm, it’s common for an area to experience several inches of rainfall and catastrophic wind over a very short timeframe. All of that excess debris and sediment from a hurricane can cause blockages in our stormwater systems, hindering them from operating properly.
Hurricanes are uncontrollable, but what we can control is taking the proper precautions and steps to make sure our stormwater systems are ready for the upcoming season!

Ft. Lauderdale city officials are expected to approve raising sea walls by just over a foot to meet a county mandate. by SRI Consultants, Inc.

Tonight’s the night! Ft. Lauderdale city officials are expected to approve raising sea walls by just over a foot to meet a county mandate.

The move will mean dilapidated sea walls will have to be replaced, and new ones will be required to be at least 5 feet high to help protect against future tidal flooding.

The State of Florida has issued a recent update to the State of Florida Elevator Code that requires that all existing elevators must be in compliance

The State of Florida has issued a recent update to the State of Florida Elevator Code that requires that all existing elevators must be in compliance

Attention Florida Property Managers & Building Owners:

The State of Florida has issued a recent update to the State of Florida Elevator Code that requires that all existing elevators must be in compliance with part 3.10.12 of ASME A17.3-2015, Safety Code for Existing Elevators and Escalators.

 

A17.3-2015 Contains the Retroactive Requirement 3.10.12 System to Monitor and Prevent Automatic Operation of the Elevator with Faulty Door Contact Circuits. All conveyances licensed by the State of Florida Bureau of Elevator Safety, including those located within the 5 contracted jurisdictions (Broward, Miami-Dade, City of Miami, City of Miami Beach, Reedy Creek Development District) must be in compliance with the above Code by December 31, 2023. This system is referred to as Door Lock Monitoring.

By December 31, 2023 ALL Existing Elevator Must Have Been:

·         For Elevators Installed Prior to A17.1 2000 (MOST ELEVATORS)

Equipped with a New Hardware and Software Upgrade and Inspected by a Licensed Elevator Contractor.

 

·         For Elevators Installed Under A17.1 2000 or Newer

Inspected by a Licensed Elevator Contractor to Ensure Door Lock Monitoring is Functional and Code Compliant. These elevators may STILL require New Hardware and Software Upgrades depending on the Controller Manufacturer.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Door Lock Monitoring Mandatory for my County?

Yes, Door Lock Monitoring is mandatory for ALL elevators in the State of Florida

 

Do I need to use my Current Vendor to install Door Lock Monitoring?

No, you can use any experienced vendor to perform your Door Lock Monitoring installation. This is considered work outside your Service Agreement.

 

What happens if I do not comply?

Failure to comply with Door Lock Monitoring will result in failed inspections and fines from the State and/or County.
