The purpose of the Public Works Design Standards (Design Standards or Standards) is to establish minimum design parameters and practices for the City of Salem’s (City) public infrastructure and certain private infrastructure as required in Salem Revised Code (SRC) that enhance public health and safety, protect the environment, and provide for the delivery of quality infrastructure. The City reserves the right, consistent with law, to impose requirements beyond these Design Standards to address specific issues or to protect the public interest. The City manages the public infrastructure utilizing asset management principles. Infrastructure investments shall be based on life cycle costs, including the operation and maintenance costs over the life of the asset. Where appropriate, environmental and social costs also may be a factor in the decision making process. The Design Standards, Standard Construction Specifications (SCS), and the Standard Drawings are intended to be used to deliver new infrastructure that minimize life cycle costs, maximize public health and safety, protect the environment, and contribute to the quality of life in Salem. (b) Applicability. This Division of the Design Standards applies to all Design Standards now in effect or adopted hereafter. (c) Authority to Adopt. These Design Standards are authorized by SRC Chapters 20J and 70. Design Standard requirements shall be consistent with the SRC. In those cases where a conflict may exist, the SRC will take precedence. (d) Delegation of Authority. The SRC delegates authority to adopt and implement the Design Standards for Public Facilities to the Director, or the Director’s designee. The Director hereby designates the City Engineer as the City’s official to create, manage, and implement the Design Standards. (e) Scope. The City has adopted the SCS including Standard Drawings. The design, construction, and reconstruction of improvements intended for use by the public and the City, including the workmanship and materials incorporated therein, shall be in accordance with the SCS and the Standard Drawings. The City will enforce these Standards carefully and thoughtfully. They are not intended as a substitute for competent work by design professionals. The Engineer of Record (EOR) is ultimately responsible for the final design of the project. Failure to comply with these Standards may result in the City requesting additional submissions and/or revisions which can result in the delay of approvals and permit issuance. The Design Standards implement the requirements of the SRC; the City’s Infrastructure Master Plans (Master Plans); the City’s National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits; Oregon Revised
