Subject: pressure relief valve

I was called to look a leaking riser.  I got on the job site and found a Tyco 
Model 513 Test and Drain with a pressure relief valve.  I think the pressure 
relief valve is leaking.  The main drain outlet is wet and the sight glass is 
obscured with rust.  Their are a total of 5 wet risers, all in a row.  Some 
risers have pressure relief valves and some do not have pressure relief 
valves.  Why?  Can I just remove the pressure relief valve. My thought is the 
designer specified the pressure relief valve for a reason, the valve needs to 
be in place.
