technical representative under the P.E.'s direction.
The P.E.'s certification of construction compliance with county staff approved
construction documents verifies that the potable water,non-potable irrigation water
and/or wastewater systems or portion(s) thereof have been constructed in
accordance with record drawings. Refer to section 134-60: Utilities conveyance
procedures.
