conditions listed in the attached certification. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local

East Lincoln County Water and Sewer District
Low Pressure Sewers, Contract 3
Lincoln.County, North Carolina
J.N.. Pease Associates' Commission No. 93057-50
February 1997
Application Summary
To alleviate septic tank failure due to topographical constraints around the Lake
Norman Area in East Lincoln County, the Water and Sewer District was
established in 1992.
A myriad of gravity, low pressure, force main, residential grinder pumps, and
major lift stations were designed to convey sewer to the newly expanded Forney
Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Residents of Governor's Island have requested access to this system. To meet this
request, a three-inch low pressure line crossing the existing bridge connecting
Burton Lane (SR 1376) and Governor's Island Drive is required.
Lincoln County proposes to directionally bore this three-inch low pressure line
underneath the bridge as shown on the enclosed project plans.
