WSSC ePlan Review DSD Applicant Guide 5 Revised 5-31-2019

Electronic Plan Submission The WSSC ePlan Review system is a web-based solution for electronic plan review that will allow plans, drawings and documents to be submitted electronically, improve the plan review cycle, reduce costs associated with plan review, as well as support green initiatives.

All new and existing project plan reviews for the WSSC Development Services Division (DSD) are to be submitted electronically to WSSC for review. Following are some DSD project/plan types:

• Hydraulic Planning Analysis (HPA) • System Planning Forecast (SPF) • System Extension Plans (SEP) • Developer Relocation/Rehabilitation Plans (DRP) • Site Utility System (SU) • Minor Site Utility System (MSU)

Note: All project/plan case applications for a new project/plan are to be made via the WSSC ePermitting system. All project/plan reviews and plan submittals are to be made via the WSSC ePlan Review system. To get started:

1. Register in WSSC ePermitting system (if not already registered there). The ePermitting link is located on WSSC website under Quick Links (wsscwater.com).

2. Login to the ePermitting system and submit your project/plan case application (for new projects

only). Your project/plan case application will be processed and review fees will be invoiced. Once fees have been paid in the ePermitting system, your project/plan case will be created in the ePlan Review system.

3. You will receive an email invitation from the ePlan Review system notifying you to start

uploading plans into the ePlan Review system.

4. Review the standards for your specific project type for how to name your drawing and document files, border spacing, acceptable file formats, etc. (See Standards section and Appendices in this guide.)

Note: There is no registration in the ePlan Review system. Access is by invitation only. The same email address you have as a User ID in the ePermitting system will be the same User ID in ePlan Review system. Suggestion: Keep the passwords the same in both systems.

Standards Standards allow for easy identification of drawing by naming convention, vector file types in order to facilitate the most efficient review, color coding of comments for visual identification of departments and so on.

New Users Browser Compatibility: The WSSC ePlan Review system (9.1 version ProjectDox) is compatible with all browsers: Internet Explorer 11 (must turn off ‘Compatibility Mode’), Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari.

External users (engineers/stakeholders) can use all browser types. Internal WSSC reviewers are advised to use Internet Explorer 11 (with Compatibility Mode turned off) which offers more robust markup/changemark capabilities (i.e., measurement tool, edit of existing markup/changemark comments) for reviewers.

Using Internet Explorer 11:

• If using Internet Explorer 11 browser, you must install ProjectDox Components. This installation will only need to be done once; if you utilize a different computer it will require another installation for each unique computer

NOTE: Other browsers do not need ProjectDox Components installed.

• You must turn off ‘Compatibility Mode’ with Internet Explorer v11.

Using all browsers:

Prior to logging into the ePlan Review (ProjectDox) application, the following actions must be completed:

1. If your computer has pop-up blockers installed, you will need to disable pop-up blocking for the ePlan Review (ProjectDox) web address (https://planreview.wsscwater.com/ProjectDox/). The indicator that this has not been done will occur when you type in your login and password, then hit the Login button and the page immediately disappears. It is not uncommon to have more than one pop-up blocker installed (Internet Explorer, Google Task Bar, etc). Once the ePlan Review (ProjectDox) site is allowed, you will be able to utilize the application.

• The login page also provides a shortcut that you can drag and drop onto your desk top as well as a link to save the ePlan Review (ProjectDox) web address to your favorites.

2. To sign in, enter your email address and temporary password (first time user) and click the Login button, as shown below:

Note: A temporary password will be provided to you in the initial ePlan Review email invitation. The ePlan Review system will automatically require you to create a permanent password.

Acceptance If your submittal passes the Prescreen process and is accepted, it will immediately move into the formal review process. You will receive a notification email when the project has moved into the formal review process.

Delete Files The applicant (engineer) does not have the ability to delete a file from the ePlan Review (ProjectDox) System, only the WSSC Intake group has this ability. Therefore, when a submittal is rejected because an incorrect file naming convention was used on a file(s), the file(s) will need to be deleted. The applicant (engineer) will need to send an OUTLOOK email request to WSSC Intake group specifying the exact name of the file, the date of the file, and the folder location (Drawings or Documents) of the file to be deleted. Please send the OUTLOOK email to the following WSSC Intake group email address:

#[email protected]

NOTE: please always use the above email address so as to prevent a delay in the file deletion process if one of the contact persons is unavailable or out of the office.

ProjectDox Issues

Uploaded PDF File Can’t be viewed/read in ProjectDox, but can be viewed/read in Adobe. Possible cause: The file has the shaded areas made with hatch marks, pattern, or dots.

Solution: 1) Make the shaded areas solid. Using hatch marks, patterns, or dots for shading on the plans increases the file size exponentially and makes it extremely slow to zoom and pan around the drawing when open in ProjectDox.

Solution: 2) Make the shaded areas the bottom layer. ProjectDox displays the layers as they were created from AutoCAD. The AutoCAD file used to make the vector-based PDF file in ProjectDox has the hatch mark layer as the top layer thus causing the text to appear broken, etc. and the overall plan/sketch to be difficult to read/view in ProjectDox. The same layer based PDF file looks perfect when viewed in Adobe because Adobe handles the layers differently from ProjectDox and automatically moves the shading layer behind the other layers.
