                                    [UTILITIES]

         1. PROBLEM: THE GALLEY DRAINAGE DESIGN WAS INADEQUATE TO ALLOW
         FOR PROPER DRAINAGE GIVEN THE FACT BURYING THE SEWAGE EJECTOR WAS
         NOT AN OPTION BECAUSE OF THE ASPHALT SURFACE THE HOSPITAL WAS
         ERECTED ON.


             SOLUTION: REDESIGN GALLEY SYSTEM TO ALLOW DRAINAGE (i.e.,
         RAISE SINKS, PROVIDE LARGER DIAMETER DRAIN LINE OR PROVIDE AN IN-
         LINE PUMP SYSTEM.


         2.  PROBLEM: HEAD UNITS DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT COUNTER SPACE.
         (PW ENDED UP BUILDING SHELVES FOR ALL HEADS.)

             SOLUTION: HEADS SHOULD BE RE-DESIGNED WITH SHELVING NEXT TO
         THE URINAL CLOSEST TO THE FRONT DOOR.


         3.  PROBLEM: ANYONE CAN ADJUST A/C CONTROLS ON THE UNIT CAUSING
         A/C COILS TO FREEZE UP.


             SOLUTION: INSTALL A LOCKING DEVICE ON THE CONTROLS TO PREVENT
         TAMPERING, BUT ENSURE A QUICK DISCONNECT IS PROVIDED TO ENABLE
         HOSPITAL PERSONNEL TO POWER DOWN THE UNIT IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE
         OR CHEMICAL ATTACK.


         4. PROBLEM: IN MUM UNITS THE WATER HEATERS ARE DESIGNED TO PIPE
         INTO THE ICE MACHINES CAUSING THEM TO HAVE TO WORK TWICE AS HARD
         TO PRODUCE ICE.


             SOLUTION: PIPE COLD WATER OFF THE LINE THAT FEEDS THE WATER
         HEATER.


         5. PROBLEM: HOSES IN ALL POTABLE WATER UNITS HAVE BEEN DRY-
         ROTTED.


             SOLUTION: PRESERVE HOSES OR CHANGE HOSE TYPE.

         6. PROBLEM: A LOT OF THE FITTINGS IN THE POTABLE WATER UNITS
         WERE NOT TIGHTENED WHEN THE UNITS WERE PACKED RESULTING LEAXS.
         THE UNITS HAVE TO BE DISASSEMBLED TO TIGHTEN THE FITTINGS.

             SOLUTION: ENSURE BETTER QUALITY CONTROL IN THIS AREA.
