t,; I Why Do We Publish This Report?
House Bill 1160 was signed into law on July 21, 1999 by North Carolina's Governor, requiring reports
from municipalities that operate wastewater collection and treatment systems. This legislation mandates
that all Cities publish an annual report informing system users of specific items such as the number of
wastewater overflows, violations of permit conditions or environmental regulations. It also requires we
report the impact of any such violations on the environment and corrective measures taken to minimize re-
currences.
To enhance your awareness of the proper functioning of the system, we have decided to inform you, the sys-
tem user, not only of the required facts - but of the stake each user has in this function and what you can do
to help ensure its reliability.
The Treatment Process
The plant (NPDES permit # NC0036269) has a
treatment capacity of 24-million gallons per day
(MGD) and uses a pure -oxygen activated sludge
secondary treatment system that processes both
domestic and industrial wastewater from both
in -plant and off -site sources. The solids processing
operation relies on a combination of proven and
cost effective technology available for the solids
handling process. The City of Kannapolis
discharges its wastewater to the Water and Sewer
Authority of Cabarrus County's (WSACC's) Rocky
River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant located
in southern Cabarrus County.

The Wastewater Collection System
The City of Kannapolis' Wastewater Collection System was installed from the mid-1900's to the present.
The system consists of approximately 325 miles of sewer pipelines, three flume stations and fifteen waste-
water lift stations. The City of Kannapolis Public Works Department performs the operation and mainte-
nance of the collection system that serves approximately 17,500 customers.
During our reporting year, our crews provided maintenance service to the system and its customers with
professionalism and efficiency:
• Two jet-vactor crews continuously clean the City's sewer system
to limit the number of wastewater back-ups and overflows. These
crews also assist with the maintenance of the City's fifteen waste-
water lift stations.
A wastewater response crew responds to all calls related to
potential blockages, customer back-ups and overflows within the
collection system.
• The closed-circuit TV inspection crew uses a track driven camera
that videotapes the interior of wastewater pipes to identify defects,
obstructions, check effectiveness of the jet-vactor cleaning
operations and inspect all new collection system extensions before
the City accepts them for operation and maintenance.
• The pump and outfall crew maintains our wastewater lift stations,
wastewater collections system's outfalls within right-of-way and
performs semi-annual inspections of the system. The crew
performed 1,687 routine inspections and responded to 20 alarms
at the lift stations this year.
• The City also has two construction and maintenance crews that
install new service connections, perform minor system expansions
and repair existing wastewater infrastructure.
Contract services are utilized for the installation of any major wastewater collection system expansion
and the replacement of aging deteriorating infrastructure.
The City of Kannapolis' Engineering Staff assists collection crews by providing additional technical
support to operations and periodic updates to system maps and construction drawings.

Collection System Overflows
The City of Kannapolis investigated approximately 902 possible municipal and private wastewater related
back-ups and overflows during the fiscal year. The -two incidences listed below resulted in a spill or over-
flow of wastewater to the surface waters and was reported to the State. All locations had any debris re-
moved, were hydraulically cleaned up and down stream and video inspected. The affected areas were
flushed with fresh water as necessary.
December 1, 2010 Total +/- 5,700 Gallons - Edinburg and Dundee Outfall — Spill occurred due to vandal-
ism where a large dead dog was placed inside the manhole obstructing flows downstream of the spill site.
April 5,2011 Total +/- 2,850 Gallons - West A Street Outfall — Spill occurred due to vandalism inside the
manhole where brick, concrete blocks and limbs had been placed.
The City of Kannapolis completed several sanitary sewer projects to further enhance the reliability of our
collection system. In addition, we continually perform proactive maintenance to the collection system to
prevent wastewater overflows. During the past fiscal year, the following maintenance was completed:
Manholes raised & upgraded: 2
Repairs to laterals: 25
Sewer main repairs: 6
Lateral blockages, unblocked & rodded: 900
Closed-circuit camera inspection: 38,071 linear feet
Cleanouts installed: 17
Sewer mains cleaned: 10.0,737 linear feet
Cleanout caps installed 30

.T.
` TO PREVENT
WASTEWATER OVERFLOWS
ALWAYS
• Always keep grease out of wash water by wiping
dishes with a disposable towel before washing.
• Always remove solidified grease from kitchen
utensils, equipment, wares and food preparation areas
with scrapers or paper towels. Dispose of scrapings
and towels in trash cans.
• Always allow hot liquid grease to solidify and then
dispose of properly.
• Always place all food scraps in trash collection
containers.
• Always recycle restaurant grease by using contract
rendering services and have grease traps cleaned and
serviced frequently.
I'
NEVER
• Never put oils, liquid or solid greases, fatty meat, or
other food scraps down a drain - even if you use a
motorized garbage disposal.
• Never flush paper towels, diaper wipes, feminine
products, cotton swabs, matchsticks, or similar items.
• Never use hot water to melt grease so it will go down
the drain easier.
• Never flush any of the items listed above down a
toilet.
REPORT
• Report trucks discharging liquids or other substances
into open municipal sewer manholes.
• Report acts of vandalism on manholes, sewer lines,
lift stations, hydrants and other structures.

the number of wastewater back-ups and overflows and assist
with the maintenance of the City's fifteen wastewater lift
stations.
• The pump and outfall crew operates and maintains the
wastewater lift stations, the wastewater collection system's 54
miles of rights -of -way and performs semi-annual inspections of
the system.

The Treatment Process
The City of Kannapolis dis-
charges its wastewater to the
Rocky River Regional Waste-
water Treatment Plant located in
southern Cabarrus County that
is owned and operated by the
Water and Sewer Authority of
Cabarrus County. The plants
NPDES permit number is NC0036269 and has a treatment capacity of 24 mil-
lion gallons per day. The plant uses a pure -oxygen activated sludge, secondary
treatment system that processes both domestic and industrial wastewater from
both in plant and off -site sources. The solids processing operation relies on a
combination of proven technologies, innovations, and cost effective equipment
Why Do We Publish This Report
On July 21', 1999, North Carolina's Governor signed into law House Bill 1160,
placing new reporting requirements on municipalities that operate wastewater
collection and treatment systems.
This new legislation mandates that all Cities publish an annual report informing
system users of specific items such as the number of wastewater overflows, vio-
lations of permit conditions or environmental regulations, the impact of any
such violations on the environment, and corrective measures taken to minimize
recnrranra0
Although a listing of the facts would have met the requirements, we have de-
cided to inform you, the system user, not only of the required facts — but to en-
hance your awareness of the stake each user has in the proper functioning of the
system, and what you can do to help assure its reliability!

SECTION A
415154005 W3 :: 1
In November 1987, the City of Kannapolis initiated the
annexation of six (6) separate contiguous areas around the
existing city limits. Included in these areas was an area
designated as Annexation Area "B". This area met the minimum
statutory standards for annexation by cities of 5,000 persons or
more under G. S. 160A-53-(1).
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide sewer
service to the west side of Lake Fisher in Annexation Area "B" on
the east side of the City of Kannapolis which has a potential for
development in the near future.
The proposed project area is located in Cabarrus and Rowan
Counties, North Carolina, within the City Limits of the City of
Kannapolis. More specifically, the project will consist of
sanitary sewer outfalls, pumping stations and force mains along
the west shore of Lake Fisher beginning at Centergrove Road (SR
2114) crossing Brantley Road and Lane Street to Joyce Street.
Two (2) wastewater lift station are proposed in series in order
to serve this area.
The proposed utility has the potential to provide sewer
service for both inside the Existing City Limits (Annexation Area
"B") and also possible future annexation areas northeast of
Kannapolis.
Also, in keeping with the current plan for the extension of
services inside the present city limits, and with the Plans for
services outlined in the original Annexation Report, the City
will extend lines necessary to provide sewer service to the
Annexation Area. Services were outlined as Phase I and Phase II
Construction.
A-2 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City proceed with the permitting
and installation of the gravity flow outfalls and pumping
stations as outlined in section D-3 of this Facilities Plan. As
shown in Alternate E-3, this is the most practical and cost
effective alternate that will provide service to the area. This
alternate will also comply with the plans for service as outlined
.in the "ANNEXATION AREA SERVICES PLAN FOR AREA B, CITY OF
KANNAPOLIS, NORTH CAROLINA as presented and adopted November
1987.
Beginning at the northern end of the project, the gravity
flow outfall will begin at Joyce Street and flow in a southern
direction along the west shore of Lake Fisher to a proposed sewer
3

a
lift station at Brantley Road. The first lift station will pump
sewage, via a proposed 6" force main to -be installed west along
Brantley Road to a proposed manhole at the west boundary of the
existing Duke Power Electrical Sub -Station. From there, a
gravity line will continue along the west shore of Lake Fisher to
a second proposed sewer lift station on an un-named tributary
near the intersection of Mid -lake Road and Centergrove. This
lift station will also provide gravity sewer service to the Lake
Fisher Road area south of Lake Fisher. This lift station will
pump sewage, via a proposed 8" force main to be installed south
to a proposed manhole near the intersection of Lake Fisher Road
and Centergrove. From there, the proposed system will flow east
to the sewer system under construction on Cold Water Creek.

SECTION B
CURRENT SITUATION
B-1 COLLECTION SYSTEM AND WWTP DESCRIPTION
B-1.1 CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICES IN THE CITY OF KANNAPOLIS
The City of Kannapolis provides sewer service as one of the
municipal services to existing areas of the City. In keeping
with that policy, the City adopted a plan for services for the
extension of sewer lines to serve residents in the annexation
area. The City owns and maintains its sewer collection system.
Wastewater treatment is provided at the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant operated and maintained by the Water
and Sewer Authority of Cabarrus County. The City of Kannapolis
is a member of that Authority. A 201 Facilities Plan for the
Rocky River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (RRRWTP) was
prepared by Peirson and Whitman, Inc. in 1974 in conjunction with
the development of the RRRWTP.
Attached and made a part of this Facility Plan are Exhibits
"I-1", "I-2", and "I-3" which are copies of the Certification Of
Incorporation Of Water And Sewer Authority Of Cabarrus County,
Interim Operation Agreement of the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant and Additional Facilities and
Infrastructure, and Agreement To Designate The Water and Sewer
Authority Of Cabarrus County As The Management Planning Agency,
respectfully.
Also, sense this project will connect and flow through lines
being operated and maintained by the Water and Sewer Authority of
Cabarrus County, Exhibit "I-4" is a letter from the Water and
Sewer Authority stating they will transport, accept and treat the
future projected flows from this project. This letter also
addresses the long range plan for funding and construction of all
major interceptors by the Authority.
B-1.2 CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICES IN THE ANNEXATION AREA
Residents and commercial establishments in Annexation Area
"B" are presently utilizing septic tanks and nitrification fields
for their sanitary sewer disposal needs. These systems drain
toward Lake Fisher which is classified as a Public Water Supply
Watershed, WS IV.

B-2 POPULATION; DEMOGRAPHICS
As of the date of annexation report, November 1987,
annexation area "B" had the following general statistics:

The total Area "B" annexation area to be served by Contracts
XVII and XVIII is 528 acres. The City of Concord owns and
maintains approximately 100 acres as buffer to Lake Fisher.
Annexation Area "B" encompasses 1382 Acres or 11.4% of the
total Cold Water Creek Drainage Basin north of Centergrove Road.
Centergrove Road is the southern boundary of the Annexation Area.
See Map labeled as Exhibit "I-5" for the overall boudary. The
drainage basin includes areas located within the following Towns,
with each town responsible for their own water and sewer needs:
City of Kannapolis
Town of China Grove
Town of Landis
As stated in the original 201 Facilities Plan for the Rocky
River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Town of China
Grove's and the Town of Landis's sewer will be treated by the
City of Salisbury. To what extent the Cold Water Creek Drainage
Basin will be developed by the various City's is up the
Individual City's Councils.
B-3 INFILTRATION/INFLOW
The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force main
installation would meet the State's regulations for infiltration
/exfiltration. All gravity sewer extensions will be meet the
State's requirements for a maximum infiltration rate of 100 gals
per day per inch diameter per mile of pipe. In order to verify
this limit, all extensions will be low pressure air tested for
leaks in accordance with ASTM C-828. All manhole to pipe
connections will be made using .a rubber boot. All manholes,
including the boot connections will be vacuum tested at 10" of
mercury. The manhole frame and covers will be installed a
minimum of 1 foot above the 100-year flood elevation to prevent
inflow.

B4 BREAKDOWN OF CURRENT FLOWS
B4.1 RESIDENTIAL - All existing flow is treated by septic
tanks and nitrification fields.
B4.2 COMMERCIAL - All existing flow is domestic and is
treated by septic tanks and nitrification fields.
B4.3 INDUSTRIAL - There is no industry in the annexation
area.
B4.4 I/I ANALYSIS - Not Applicable - no existing sewer
system.

SECTION C
FUTURE SITUATION
C-1 POPULATIONS PROJECTIONS
Reviews of the census records, feasibility studies for water
and sewer facilities within the area, and the Kan -la -con
Thoroughfare Study, all indicate that the population of the City
of Kannapolis should continue to expand. The City is located
adjacent to Interstate I-85 and within commuting distance to the
City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. As the City of
Charlotte and Mecklenburg County have expanded, the nearby
communities have also experienced a large amount of growth.
In order to project the future population of the City of
Kannapolis, it is assumed that the growth rate will be 1-1/2
percent per year, which is similar to other cities and
communities that surround the Charlotte -Mecklenburg area. Area
"B" is expected to have a higher growth rate than the area within
the current City due to the proximity to Interstate I- 85. Due to
the recent construction of water lines within the area, the
proposed construction of the sewer facilities in Contracts XVII
and XVIII, and the land available for development, this area has
features attractive to developers. Over the past 100 years, the
majority of the area near the center of Kannapolis has been
developed to support Fieldcrest Cannon and the local businesses.
This forces the future developments to migrate to Annexation
Areas where large land tracts with lower land costs offer the
ability to develop upscale residential communities with
amenities. Annexation Area "B" is highly suited for residential
development due to sparse existing commercial and industrial
development. The area also has a large number of existing City
maintained roads that provide access to the neighboring cities
and towns.
This area should have very little commercial and industrial
development due to a Class IV Watershed Classification and its
proximity to Lake Fisher. Additional requirements for discharges
and limits to the developable area within a site will force
industries that would consider locating within the area to look
at other sites with lower development and operational costs.
The 1990 Census list the population of Kannapolis as 29696.
By using a growth rate of 1-1/2 percent, the City's population
should be 42450 in the year 2014. It is reasonable to assume
that the increase in population will create additional
residential development within the Annexation Areas. This
creates a higher growth rate than the average for the City of
Kannapolis over the next 20 years.
C

The Annexation Report indicated that Annexation Area "B" had_
a population of 888 in 1987. Using the same growth rate of 1-1/2
percent, the population would be 1327 in the year 2014. However,
it should be noted that the population of this area has been
restricted in the past by the lack of public water and sewer
facilities. This area is beginning to see residential
development. Several developers have constructed subdivisions
in this area by extending the existing sewer and water facilities
to their projects. One developer constructed a pump station to
pump the sewage to an existing sewer line in a different drainage
basin. By utilizing the pump station and extending the water and
sewer lines, approximately 150 lots have been developed along
Midlake Road since the Annexation Report was prepared. As houses
are built upon these lots, a population density of 2.4
individuals per unit will add an additional 360 individuals to
the Annexation Area. This trend is expected to continue as the
sewer lines are constructed and placed in service within this
area.
C-2 FLOW PROJECTIONS
The total annexation area to be served by Contracts XVII and
XVIII is 528 acres. The City of Concord owns and maintains
approximately 100 acres as buffer to Lake Fisher. It is my
professional opinion that the property owned by the City of
Concord will never be developed and therefore should be
eliminated from any design calculations for the area. The net
serviceable area is therefor 428 acres. The flow projections for
this area is based on the maximum lot density allowed under the
current Zoning and the Watershed Protection Ordinance which is
1/2 acre lots in the Critical Area. Based on this, the average
daily flow is calculated as follows:
Qa(flow in gpd)=2(Lots/acre)X360(Gals/lot)x 428Acres
Therefore, Qa=308,160gpd average daily flow which equals 214
gal/min.
Peak Flow Qp(flow in gpd)= 2.5 x Qa
2.5 x 308,160 = 770,400gpd or 535 gpm
Based on 535 gpm peak flow for the Annexation Area being served
by the 16" sewer lines in this project, the flowing design
criteria is provided.
16" DIP Sewer Pipe @ 0.18% Grade
Qfull = 2.lmgd = 3.25 cfs
Vel @ Qfull = 2.33 ft/sec.
Based on 535gpm = 1.19 cfs or 56.67% of the Hydraulic Capacity.
Normal Depth of Flow = 0.56' = 6.72" or 42% of the depth.
Vel @ Normal Depth of Flow = 2.15 ft/sec.

WATERSHED PROTECTION
In order to protect the Lake Fisher Watershed, the City of
Kannapolis has amended the Code of Ordinances of the City of
Kannapolis with respect to zoning to include Watershed Overlay
Districts. Attached and made a part of this report is Exhibit
"I-7" which is a copy of the Lake Fisher Overlay District for
both the Critical Area and the balance of the watershed.
C-3 SPECULATIVE/ACTUAL EFFLUENT LINUTATIONS
Not applicable.

SECTION D
ALTERNATIVES
D-1 NO ACTION
Currently, there is no sewer service to the subject area.
Therefore, the area is not as accommodating to future development
due to the environmental concerns limitations, restrictions, and
development costs associated with areas not having public sewer.
A no action alternative would mean construction and maintenance
of individual septic tanks with nitrification fields, or numerous
sewer systems with pumping stations which have a greater
potential for adverse impacts on the environment.
In a no action alternative, some areas may be determined as
to costly to develop or not developable due to groundwater and
soil conditions.
A NO ACTION ALTERNATIVE will violate the General Statutes
concerning the Annexation of Area "B". Initial Phase I plans
called for the installation of the major sewer outfalls for the
expansion of service lines as funds become available. Contracts
XVII and XVIII were part of the Phase I installations._
Preliminary sewer line locations required to complete the
initial plans (Phase I) were shown on plans prepared by Alley,
Williams, Carmen & King, Inc. which were included in the
Annexation Report. In accordance with the General Statutes
concerning Annexation, detailed engineering plans for Phase I
shall be completed and contracts for construction awarded no
later than one year from the effective date of annexation -and
construction will be completed within two years after the date of
annexation. For Annexation Area "B", the effective date of
annexation was July 1, 1993. Therefore, the project must by
under contract prior to July 1, 1994 and construction must be
completed prior to July 1, 1995. Phase II Services are to be
installed as funds become available for construction.
D-2 GRAVITY FLOW ALTERNATIVE
This alternative would require the installation of
approximately 13,540 if of 16" gravity sewer main from Joyce
Street south along the west shore of Lake Fisher to the existing
sewer system at the base of the Lake Fisher Dam. This alternate
is not feasible due to the fact that if the line is at minimum
depth at Joyce Street, and run at minimum grade, the invert
elevation of the sewer outfall at the dam would be at elevation
610 feet, plus or minus, with a ground elevation of 660 feet,
plus or minus. The last 40001, plus or minus, of this line would
11

average 40 feet to 50 feet in depth. The operation and
maintenance of a line at this depth and length is not practical
or feasible. Manholes and lines at this depth also require
additional safety precautions to comply with OSHA regulations
dealing with confined spaces. There are also several
obstructions to construction with this alternate. They are the
location of the existing Duke Power Electrical Substation on the
south side of Brantley Road and the Lake Fisher Raw Water
Pumping Station located at the Lake Fisher Dam.
PRIMARY DESIGN CRITERIA
This sewer extension would be designed in accordance with
the North Carolina Administrative Code Section 15 NCAC 2H.0219
Waste Not Discharged to Surface Waters Amended February 1, 1993.
With Lake Fisher being a WS IV Watershed, certain
minimum separations are required. Waters classified as
a Class IV Watershed shall have a minimum of 100 foot
separation between the sanitary sewer and.normal high
water (normal pool). Where'the minimum separation
cannot be maintained, ferris metal pipe with water main
joint standards shall be used, provided that at no
place shall the separation be less than 50 feet.
D-3 GRAVITY FLOW WITH PUMP STATIONS ALTERNATIVE
Contracts XVII and Contract XVIII, as proposed, will provide
sewer service for the west side of Lake Fisher. Attached and
made a part of this Report is Exhibit "B" which is a map showing
the location of the proposed sewer lines.
The sewer system is approximately 5968 linear feet of 16"
ductile iron gravity flow line along the west shore of Lake
Fisher from Joyce Street to a proposed 430 gallons per minute
(gpm) duplex submersible lift station located on the north side
of Brantley Road. This station will discharge, via approximately
430 linear feet of 6" ductile iron force main west along Brantley
Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will
flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900 linear feet of 16"
ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed 560 gallon per
minute (gpm) duplex submersible sewer lift station to be located
near the intersection of Centergrove Road and Mid -Lake Road.
This station will discharge, via 1485 linear feet of 8" ductile
iron force main cross country and along Lake Fisher Road to a
proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will flow
again by gravity thru approximately 1287 linear feet of 15" PVC
sewer pipe along Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove Road to the
City of Kannapolis's existing sewer system on Cold Water Creek.
12

Approximately 1182 linear feet of 8" pvc and ductile iron
gravity flow sanitary sewer outfall will also connect to the
proposed lift station at Mid -Lake and Centergrove Road. This
line will provide sewer service to the Lake Fisher Road area.
Also included in this project is approximately 190 linear
feet of 8" sanitary sewer along a un=named tributary to Lake
Fisher from the 16" gravity flow line to existing Beaver Pond
Subdivision sewer lift station. This line will eliminate the
Beaver Pond sewer lift station and provide a gravity system for
that subdivision. (See Exhibit "2-6")
Projected Wastewater flows:
The design flows will be accumulative as lines are extended
in the service area over the next five to ten years.
A. Brantley Road Sewer Lift Station
The design flow is based on the annexation drainage area
located above the proposed lift station site. This area totals
270 acres. The estimated design flow is 270 acres x 2.0 housing
units per acre at 360 gals/unit which equals 194,400 gpd or 135
gpm average daily flow. The peak flow equals 337.5 gpm.
B. Mid -Lake Sewer Lift Station
The design flow is based on the annexation drainage area
located above the proposed lift station site. This area totals
428 acres. The estimated design flow,is based on 428 acres x 2.0
housing units per acre at 360 gals/unit which equals'308,160 gpd
or 214 gpm average daily flow. The peak flow equals 535 gpm.
Both stations will be designed with additional storage and
the capability of changing impellers as the future flow
increases. Both stations will be equipped with automatic
transfer switches and emergency generators. The emergency
generators will be fueled by liquid petroleum or natural gas.
Diesel fuel will not be considered since the lift stations are
adjacent to a public water supply.
Both lift stations are designed for a average daily flow
rate less the 1,000,000.00 gals/day.
This system will permit the property in the Cold Water Creek
(Lake Fisher) drainage basin to develop in an orderly fashion
without the nuisance of individual septic tanks or individual
subdivision Pump Stations.
13

PRIMARY DESIGN CRITERIA
This sewer extension will be designed in accordance with
North Carolina Administrative Code Section 15 NCAC 2H.0219 Waste
Not Discharged to Surface Waters Amended February 1, 1993.
With Lake Fisher being a WS IV Watershed, certain
minimum separations are required. Waters classified as
a Class IV Watershed shall have a minimum of 100 foot
separation between the sanitary sewer and normal high water
(normal pool). Where the minimum separation cannot be
maintained, ferris metal pipe with water main joint
standards shall be used, provided that at no place shall the
separation be less than 50 feet.
For pumping stations, no by-pass or overflow lines,
multiple pumps shall be provided capable of pumping at
a rete of 2.5 times the average daily flow rate with
with any one pump out of service. Pump-on/pump-off
elevations shall be set such that 2-8 cycles per hour
may be achieved in the pump station at average flow.
At least one of the following shall be required: (a)
dual source or standby power supply on site, or: (b)
telemetry systems with sufficient numbers of standby
generators and personnel for distribution.

SECTION E
PRESENT WORTH ANALYSIS
E-1 NO ACTION
If the facility is not constructed, the City of Kannapolis
will not incur any direct cost with this option except for the
maintenance of existing public facilities and or the maintenance
of Facilities installed by developers. However, a NO ACTION
ALTERNATIVE will violate the General Statutes concerning the
extension of City sewer services to this Annexation Area. This
could expose the City to possible litigation.
E-2 GRAVITY FLOW ANALYSIS
This Alternative requires the installation of approximately
13,540 if of 16" ductile iron gravity flow sewer.
Capital Cost: 13,540 if of 16" dip $190.00/lf $2,574,600.00

SECTION F
USER CHARGES AND FINANCIAL CAPABILITIES
See attached City of Kannapolis Projection of Water and
Sewer Fund Net Revenues and payment schedule of a loan through
the State Bond Program.
Based on a simple interest loan with a declining payment and a
principal amount of 1,736,000.00 @ 5.00% Interest, the first year
payment is $173,600.00.
Therefore: Debt Service $173,600.00/year
Power Consumption $ 12,000.00/year
Operation/Maintenance $ 3,000.00/year
Total Cost $187,950.00/year
Total Yearly Projected Flow (City Wide): 850,000,000 gals
$187,950.00/850,000 = $.221 increase per 1000 gals.
The impact on the sewer user fees for the average customer with
5000 gals/month = 5 x $.221 = $1.11/month.
However, the City Manager has proposed in the 1994-1995 Budget,
that the sewer user fee be increased $0.19 per 1000 gallons and
the water user fees be increased $.19 per 1000 gallons.
This equates to an impact on the sewer user fee for the average
customer with 5000 gals/month of $.95. The remainder of the
revenue will be generated by the expansion of the customer base
and tap fees.

EXCERPTS FROM COUN CIL INMEETLN G
MARCH 28, 1994
PUBLIC HEARING CONCERNING FINANCING OF SEWER EMPROVEMENTS
THROUGH THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH
AND NATURAL RESOURCES LOAN PROGRAM
Mayor Anderson referred to the City Manager's memorandum dated March 21, 1994 and
stated that under the Education, Clean Water and Parks Act of 1993 (ACT) municipalities may
make application for loans and grants to aid eligible units of government the cost of construction
of wastewater treatment works, wastewater collection systems and water supply systems and
water conservation projects. (Copy of memorandum included in official minutes as Exhibit F)
Mayor Anderson then deferred to the City Manager for further comment.
City Manager McCombs explained that the City has no assurance that the loan will be
approved as the City will be in competition with other municipalities for the money that is
available. Staff feels a more favorable rate can be obtained, if approved, rather than using other
means of financing. The City would finance $1,736,000 for a twenty (20) year period with the
first payment due in 1995 in the amount of $128,000. This payment approximates 1.4 cents on
the tax rate.
The City intends to construct a wastewaster collection system project described as Sewer
I West and Sewer H West in the Area "B" annexation area on the west side of Fisher Lake.
City Manager McCombs stated that City Council may consider several possible methods
of repaying the debt service that include on increase in water and sewer user fees or reduce the
amount of money put aside in the Capital Improvement Program each year and use toward the
debt service or the possibility of increasing taxes.
In order for the City to proceed with the application, City Council must conduct a public
hearing.
Mayor Anderson then opened the public hearing and gave those in attendance an
opportunity to speak.
Guy Maher of 1700 Azalea Street wanted to make sure he understood that in order to
finance the water and sewer project there could be a tax increase or as another avenue of funding
to raise water and sewer rates and asked if it would be city wide.
City Manager McCombs reiterated the options Council may consider in the repayment of
the loan.
Mr. Maher asked if this was something that was considered before annexation occurred
or is there any way it can be financed through possible construction in the area in order to relieve
the tax burden of other tax payers in the City that do not have any specific interests in the area.
Mr. Maher stated that he understands as a City, all benefit from what comes into the City, but
is concerned that when decisions are made, all citizens are effected and have no recourse other
than to pay the bill.
There being no further speakers from the floor, Mayor Anderson closed the public
hearing.

SECTION H
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
For sanitary sewer extensions, there are two (2) sets of criteria
that determine if an Assessment is required. They are as
follows:
1. Sewer lines greater than three miles in length
and/or having a design flow of one million
gallons per day or greater.
2. Pump Stations with a pumping capacity of one
million gallons per day or more.
The total project length is 15,248.75 if or 2.89 miles of pipe
which is less than 3.0 miles and the average daily projected
flow is equal to 308,160 gpd. The maximum peak pumping rate is
770,400.00 gallons per day.
Both Lift Stations are designed for a average daily flow rate
less the 1,000,000.00 gals/day.
It is my professional opinion that an Environmental Assessment is
not required for this project.
However, an Environmental Assessment is included in this report
to meet the criteria set forth under the State Bond program.

SECTION 1
EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
1.01 TOPOGRAPHY
The proposed project area is located in Cabarrus and Rowan
Counties, North Carolina, within the City Limits of the City of
Kannapolis. More specifically, the project will consist of
sanitary sewer outfalls, pumping stations and force mains along
the west shore of Lake Fisher beginning at Centergrove Road (SR
2114) crossing Brantley Road and Lane Street to Joyce Street.
Two (2) wastewater lift station are proposed in series.
Beginning at the northern end of the project, the gravity flow
outfall will begin at Joyce Street and flow in a southern
direction to a proposed sewer lift station at Brantley Road. The
first lift station will pump sewage, via a proposed 6" force main
to be installed west along Brantley Road to a proposed manhole at
the west boundary of the existing Duke Power Electrical Sub -
Station. From there, a gravity line will continue along the west
shore of Lake Fisher to a second proposed sewer lift station on
an un-named tributary near the intersection of Mid -lake Road and
Centergrove. This lift station will also provide gravity sewer
service to the Lake Fisher Road area south of Lake Fisher. This
lift station will pump sewage, via a proposed 8" force main to be
installed south to a proposed manhole near the intersection of
Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove. From there, the proposed
system will flow west to the existing sewer system on Cold Water
Creek.
The proposed utility will provide sewer service for both the
Existing City Limits and also future development in the area
north of Kannapolis.
The proposed project area varies in elevations from
approximately 650 feet to 680 feet above sea level. Slopes for
the project area are generally from 2% to 12%.
1.02 LAND USE
The land use along the length of the project is undisturbed
land with some farm land. The majority of the proposed sewer
improvements will be installed within Rights -of -ways being
acquired by the City of Kannapolis. The remainder of the project
will be installed along the State's roadway rights -of -way on Lane
Street, Brantley Road, and Centergrove Road. The sites for the
proposed wastewater lift stations are undisturbed woodlands.
EA-2

1.03 SOILS
The predominate soils at the proposed site area are well
drained, with moderately to slowly permeable. These soil types
are primarily Altvista Sandy Loam, Enon Sandy Loam and Poindexter
Loam. One small section of outfall of approximately 200 feet in
length crosses a section of Chewacla Sandy Loan that is poorly
drained with moderate permeability.
1.04 SURFACE WATERS
The proposed outfall crosses two
are designated as blue lines on the 7
maps. The crossings are approximately
feet north of Brantley Road. No other
impacted by -the project.
1.05 GROUND WATER
(2) perennial streams that
1/2 minute USGS quadrangle
1100 feet south, and 1400
existing surface waters are
No soil borings are recorded for the proposed project area.
The design and/or method of construction include ductile iron
pipe with water main standard joints. All lines will be air
tested for leaks, manholes and pump station wetwells will vacuum
tested and manhole to pipe connections will include watertight
rubber boots. These measures will be implemented to eliminate
the potential for groundwater contamination. The gravity flow
sanitary sewer system will extend service to area that have
failing septic tanks and drain fields.-
EA-3

SECTION 2
WG
IM
2.01 PURPOSE
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide sewer
service to the west side of Lake Fisher in Annexation Area "B" on
the east side of the City of Kannapolis which has a potential for
development in the near future.
would be served with sewer by extensions of the City of
Kannapolis's sewer collection system.
EA-4

SECTION 3
ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS
3.01 NO ACTION ALTERNATIVE
Currently, there is no sewer service to the subject area.
Therefore, the area is not as accommodating to future development
due to the environmental concerns limitations, restrictions, and
development costs associated with areas not having public sewer.
A no action alternative would mean construction and maintenance
of individual sewer systems which have a greater potential for
adverse impacts on the environment.
Also, in a no action alternative, some areas may be
determined as to costly to develop or not developable due to
groundwater and soil conditions.
3.02 SEWER EXTENSION ALTERNATIVE - GRAVITY FLOW SYSTEM
Sewer System Improvements
This alternative would require the installation of
approximately 13,000 if of 16" gravity sewer main from Joyce
Street south along the west shore of Lake.Fisher to the existing
sewer system at the base of the Lake Fisher Dam. This alternate
is not feasible due to the fact that the invert elevation at the
dam would be at elevation 610 feet, plus or minus, with a ground
elevation of 660 feet, plus or minus. The last 40001, plus or
minus, of this line would average 40 feet to 50 feet in depth.
Obstructions to construction of this alternate are the existing
Duke Power Electrical Substation and the Lake Fisher Raw Water
Pumping Station.
3.03 SEWER EXTENSION ALTERNATIVE - GRAVITY FLOW SYSTEMS AND
FORCE MAINS
Sewer System Improvements
The sewer system as proposed is approximately 5968 linear
feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line along the west shore
of Lake Fisher from Joyce Street to a proposed 430 gallons per
minute (gpm) duplex submersible lift station located on the north
side of Brantley Road. This station will discharge, via
approximately 430 linear feet of 6" ductile iron force main west
along Brantley Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the
wastewater will flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900
EA-5

linear feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed
560 gallon per flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900
linear feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed
560 gallon per minute (gpm) duplex submersible sewer lift station
to be located near the intersection of Centergrove Road and Mid -
Lake Road. This station will discharge, via 1485 linear feet of
8" ductile iron force main cross country and along Lake Fisher
Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will
flow again by gravity thru approximately 1287 linear feet of 15"
PVC sewer pipe along Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove Road to the
City of Kannapolis's existing sewer system on Cold Water Creek.
Approximately 1182 linear feet of 8" ductile iron gravity
flow sanitary sewer outfall will also connect to the proposed
lift station at Mid -Lake and Centergrove Road. Also included in
this project is approximately 190 linear feet of 8" sanitary
sewer along a un-named tributary to Lake Fisher from the 16"
gravity flow line to existing Beaver Pond Subdivision sewer lift
station. This line will eliminate the Beaver Pond sewer lift
station and provide a gravity system for that subdivision. (See
Site Location Map)
EA-6

SECTION 4
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES
4.01 CHANGES IN LAND USE
For the utilities being located in the rights -of -way of
existing roads (Centergrove Road, Brantley Road and Lane
Street), there is no change in land use imposed by the project
construction.
The proposed sewer outfall is primarily proposed to be
constructed in the rights -of -way purchased by the City of
Kannapolis. These Rights -of -way widths are dictated by the OSHA
requirements for 1:1 theoretical side slopes for depth of cover
for construction and maintenance. The portion of the project
impacted by the cross country sewer outfalls and lift stations is
currently farmland/woodland. The areas around these proposed
facilities can continue to be farmed upon construction
completion. Therefore, the only change in land use, as a result
of constructing this project, is the site for the wastewater lift
stations. (See Site Location Map)
4.02 WETLANDS
The proposed project should have no adverse effects on
wetlands since the proposed utility is to be constructed within
existing roadway rights -of -way and the cross country sewer
outfall and wastewater lift stations are proposed in areas
currently serving as farmland/woodland. The only known wetlands
are stream two (2) stream crossings.
4.03 AGRICULTURAL LANDS
The proposed project will have minimal impact on
agricultural lands. The only impact will be the sites for the
wastewater lift stations which will no longer be woodlands.
4.04 PUBLIC LANDS
The proposed sewer extension would have no significant
impact on public lands in the area. The property owned by the
City of Concord was purchased at the time of construction of Lake
Fisher and is provided for undeveloped buffer around the lake.
4.05 SCENIC AND RECREATIONAL AREAS
There are no scenic or recreational areas that will be
affected by the proposed project.
EA-7

4.06 ARCHAEOLOGICAL OR HISTORICAL SITES
To the best of our knowledge, there are no archeological or
historical sites in the area that will be affected by the
proposed sewer utility extension. Should it be determined at a
later date, that archaeological resources exist in the project
area, adjustments will be made to preserve on record anything of
archaeological value.
4.07 AIR QUALITY
The overall effect of air quality in the area will be
negligible. Some short term effects caused by wind blown dust
and engine exhaust during construction may occur. Through notes
on the Construction Plans and in the Technical Specifications
the contractor will be encouraged to merchandise fully stocked
stands of timber, collected during the minimum clearing required,
to minimize burning of debris during construction.
4.08 GROUNDWATER QUALITY
The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force main
installation would meet the State's regulations for
infiltration/exfiltration. Therefore, there is no expected
impact on the groundwater quality.
4.09 NOISE LEVELS
Noise during construction will not be a problem to
residences that might be within listening range since
construction work will be done during the daylight. Once the
proposed extension is operational, there will be no noise
associated with the underground utilities and little noise
associated with the operation of the pump stations. However, the
noise of the lift stations would be intermittent and the stations
designs will mitigate its effects.
4.10 WATER SUPPLIES
Lake Fisher is classified as a WS IV Public Water Supply
Watershed. The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force
main installation will meet the State's regulations for
installation of sanitary sewers adjacent to public water
supplies as set out in North Carolina Administrative Code Section
15 NCAC 2H.0219. Therefore, there is no expected impact on the
public water supply.
EA-8

4.11 FISH AND THEIR HABITATS
No fish and their habitats will be impacted by the proposed
project.
4.12 WILDLIFE AND THEIR HABITATS
There will be no impact on wildlife as a result of the
construction and operation of this project. The wildlife
existing in the project area is small game such as rabbits and
birds.
4.13 INTRODUCTION OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES
There will be no introduction of toxic substances to the
environment -as a result of this project.
4.14 EUTROPHICATION OF RECEIVING WATERS
There are no receiving waters, the proposed lift stations
will pump wastewater to the City of Kannapolis's existing sewer
collection system.
EA-9

SECTION 5
MITIGATIVE MEASURES
Measures are proposed to mitigate or avoid any adverse
environmental impacts the proposed extensions might have on the
area during construction and operation. Such measures will be
implemented to control erosion, reforestation of portions of the
construction easements, construction, noise, and system failure.
5.01 EROSION CONTROL
Erosion control measures and good construction practices
will be implemented to protect the surrounding areas from
siltation and pollution. Temporary or Permanent vegetation will
be planted immediately upon installation of no more than 1000
feet of line and shall continue such that no more than 1000 feet
of installed line is bare at any one time.
5.02 CONSTRUCTION LIMITS
Construction limits will be imposed during the construction
of the proposed extensions to eliminate the potential of harm to
trees not in the construction path.
5.03 NOISE LEVEL
The noise level at the wastewater lift stations sites would
be minimal. The noise of the standby generator would only occur.
during electrical failure and would be muffled by the building
enclosure.
5.04 SYSTEM FAILURE
The design of the proposed
incorporate measures to prevent
should the system fail.
A. System Capacity
wastewater lift stations would
a hazard to the environment
The proposed pumping systems have a design capacity of 430
gpm and 560 gpm, respectfully. The proposed systems will consist
of two (2) pumps alternating as lead pump and each pump capable
of pumping at the design capacities of the wastewater flows.
Therefore, the run time for each pump is reduced and redundancy
is provided in the case of pump failure.
EA-10

B. Loss of Power
In the case of electrical power failure to the pumping
stations, a standby emergency generator will be provided to
deliver power to the pumps for continued pumping.
C. Overflow and Leakage
As described above, redundant pumping capacity and a standby
generator will reduce the probability of overflow from the pump
station. Alarms and telemetry communication to indicate the
system malfunctions will alert the City's operator to problems at
the lift stations.
Careful design and good construction practices will be
implemented -to eliminate the possibility of leakage from the wet
well.

Subject: City of Kannapolis Annexation Area "B"
(Contracts XIV, XV, XVII and XVIM
Dear Mr. McCombs:
As you are aware, we have available treatment capacity . at the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant (RRRWTP) to handle. anticipated flows from your newly annexed
Area "B". I have written letters of flow acceptance to Jeff Moody as your various.projects have
been submitted for approval.
The existing Cold Water Creek Interceptor, owned and operated by the Water and -Sewer -
Authority of Cabarrus County (WSACC); is the means of . transportation of Area "B" waste-
water to the RRRWTP. The Cold Water Creek Interceptor was constructed around 1966 and
serves a drainage basin, including your Area "B", that has the potential for significant
development by. Cabarrus County and the City of Concord as well as the City of Kannapolis
We are aware that flow capacity in this system may be exceeded in the. future.
Boyle Engineering is now in the process of .completing a master plan for WSACC to
identify and .prioritize future sewer needs including the Cold Water basin. - It is our intent in
keeping With the mission and objectives of WSACC, to develop a long range plan for funding
and construction of all major interceptors in our service area.
Sincerely, =

Critical Area (CA). The area adjacent to a water supply intake or reservoir
where risk associated with pollution is greater than from the remaining portions
of the watershed. The critical area is defined as extending either one-half mile
from the normal pool elevation of the reservoir in which the intake is located or
to the ridge line of the watershed (whichever comes first); or one-half mile
upstream from the intake located directly in the stream or river (run -of -the -
river), or the ridge line of the watershed (whichever comes first). Local
governments may extend the critical area as needed. Major landmarks such as
highways or property lines may be used to delineate the outer boundary of the
critical area if these landmarks are immediately adjacent to the appropriate
outer boundary of one-half mile.
Development. Any land disturbing activity which adds to or changes the amount of
impervious or partially impervious cover on a land area or which otherwise
decreases the infiltration of precipitation into the soil.
Discharging Landfill. A facility with liners, monitoring equipment and other
measures to detect and/or prevent leachate from entering the environment and in
which the leachate is treated on site and discharged to a receiving stream.

of Subsection 5:3.5, WP, Watershed Protection Overlayand designating Subsection
5:3.5 as "reserved", by deleting Subsection 5:3.5.1, Lot Area Requirements, and
by creating the following new Subsections:
"5:3.8 General Provisions Applicable to All Watershed Overlay Districts
The following general provisions apply to all Watershed Overlay Districts. These
provisions and the provisions contained in the Individual Watershed Overlay
Districts are designed to protect the water quality of the Water Supply
Watersheds that lie within the jurisdiction of this Ordinance and to implement
the rules adopted by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission for
the classified watersheds pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes 143-214.5.
(a) The construction of new roads and bridges and non-residential development
should minimize built -upon area, divert stormwater away from surface water
supply waters as much as possible, and employ best management practices
(BMPs) to minimize water quality impacts. To the extent practicable, the
construction of new roads in the critical area should be avoided. The
Department of Transportation BMPs as outlined in their document entitled
"Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters" shall be
used in all road and bridge construction projects in the Watershed Overlay
Districts.
(b) All development activities within Watershed Overlay Districts, in addition
to those activities specifically regulated by these provisions, are subject
to the standards, usage conditions and other regulations contained in the
Rules and Requirements of the Surface Water Supply Protection Rules adopted
by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
(c) A minimum 30-foot vegetative buffer for development activities is required
along all perennial waters, including streams, rivers and impoundments,
indicated on the most recent versions, of United States Geodetic Survey
(USGS) 1: 24,000 scale topographic maps; provided, that nothing in this

Subsection shall prevent artificial streambank or shoreline stabilization.
No new development is allowed in the, buffer, except that water dependent
structures, and public works projects such as road crossings and greenways
may be allowed where' no practicable alternative exists. These activities
shall minimize built -upon surface area, direct runoff away from the surface
water, and maximize the utilization of SMPs.
(d) Existing development, as defined in this Ordinance, is not subject to the
requirements of the overlay provisions. Expansions to structures classified
as existing development must meet the requirements of these provisions,
provided however, the built -upon area of the existing development is not
required to be included in the density calculations. In determining
expansions to existing development, the maximum permitted additional built -
upon area is derived by -multiplying the area of the portion of the property
that is not built -upon by the appropriate percent built -upon limitation for
" the 'Overlay District 'in which 'the -'property is located.
(e) A pre-existing lot created prior to the effective date of this Ordinance,
regardless of whether or not a vested right has been established, may be
developed or redeveloped for single family residential purposes without
being subject to the restrictions of these overlay provisions.
(f) Any existing building or built -upon area not in conformance with the
limitations of these provisions that has been damaged or removed for any
reason may be repaired and/or reconstructed, provided:
(1) Repair or reconstruction is initiated within twelve (12) months and
completed within two (2) years of such damage or removal.
(2) The total amount of space devoted to built -upon area may not be
increased.
(3) The repair or reconstruction is otherwise permitted under the
provisions of this Ordinance.
(g) No activity, situation, structure or land use shall be permitted or allowed
to operate within a watershed which poses a threat to water quality and the
public health, safety and welfare. Such conditions may arise from
inadequate on -site sewage systems which utilize ground absorption;
inadequate sedimentation and erosion control measures; the improper storage
or disposal of junk, trash or other refuse within a buffer area; the absence
or improper implementation of a spill containment plan for toxic and
hazardous materials; the improper management of stormwater runoff; or any
other situation found to pose a threat to water quality.
(h) The Zoning Administrator may require such information on Zoning Compliance
Permit and Development Plan applications, including density/built-upon area
calculations, as he may deem necessary to determine compliance with
Watershed Overlay District provisions.
(i). The Zoning Administrator may, prior to the issuance of any permit in a
Watershed Overlay District, require evidence of a valid Sedimentation
Control Permit issued by the State of North Carolina or evidence
satisfactory to the Administrator that no permit is required.
70.

(j) The Zoning Administrator shall maintain records of the administration of the
Watershed Overlay District regulations and shall submit any modifications of
the regulations to the Division of -Environmental Management, Division of
Environmental Health and Division of Community Assistance. The Zoning
Administrator shall also maintain a record of variances issued and shall
submit an annual report of each project receiving a variance and the reason
for the variance to the Division of Environmental Management.

SECTION A
A-1 SUMMARY
In November 1987, the City of Kannapolis initiated the
annexation of six (6) separate contiguous areas around the
existing city limits. Included in these areas was an area
designated as Annexation Area "B". This area met the minimum
statutory standards for annexation by cities of 5,000 persons or
more under G. S. 160A-53-(1).
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide sewer
service to the west side of Lake Fisher in Annexation Area "B" on
the east side of the City of Kannapolis which has a potential for
development in the near future.
The proposed project area is located in Cabarrus and Rowan
Counties, North Carolina, within the City Limits of the City of
Kannapolis. More specifically, the project will consist of
sanitary sewer outfalls, pumping stations and force mains along
the west shore of Lake Fisher beginning at Centergrove Road (SR
2114) crossing Brantley Road and Lane Street to Joyce Street.
Two (2) wastewater lift station are proposed in series in order
to serve this area.
The proposed utility has the potential to provide sewer
service for both inside the Existing City Limits (Annexation Area
"B") and also possible future annexation areas northeast of
Kannapolis.
Also, in keeping with the current plan for the extension of
services inside the present city limits, and.with the Plans for
services outlined in the original Annexation Report, the City
will extend lines necessary to provide sewer service to the
Annexation Area. Services were outlined as Phase I and Phase II
Construction.
A-2 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City proceed with the permitting
and installation of the gravity flow outfalls and pumping
stations as outlined in section D-3 of this Facilities Plan. As
shown in Alternate E-3, this is the most practical and cost
effective alternate that will provide service to the area. This
alternate will also comply with the plans for service as outlined
in the "ANNEXATION AREA SERVICES PLAN FOR AREA B, CITY OF
KANNAPOLIS, NORTH CAROLINA as presented and adopted November
1987.
Beginning at the northern end of the project, the gravity
flow outfall will begin at Joyce Street and flow in a southern
direction along the west shore of Lake Fisher to a proposed sewer
3

lift station at Brantley Road. The first lift station will pump.
sewage, via a proposed 6" force main to be installed west along
Brantley Road to a proposed manhole at the west boundary of the
existing Duke Power Electrical Sub -Station. From there, a
gravity line will continue along the west shore of Lake Fisher to
a second proposed sewer lift station on an un-named tributary
near the intersection of Mid -lake Road and Centergrove. This
lift station will also provide gravity sewer service to the Lake
Fisher Road area south of Lake Fisher. This lift station will
pump sewage, via a proposed 8" force main to be installed south
to a proposed manhole near the intersection of Lake Fisher Road
and Centergrove. From there, the proposed system will flow east
to the sewer system under construction on Cold Water Creek.

SECTION B
CURRENT SITUATION
B-1 COLLECTION SYSTEM AND WWTP DESCRIPTION
B-1.1 CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICES IN THE CITY OF KANNAPOLIS
The City of Kannapolis provides sewer service as one of the
municipal services to existing areas of the City. In keeping
with that policy, the City adopted a plan for services for the
extension of sewer lines to serve residents in the annexation
area. The City owns and maintains its sewer collection system.
Wastewater treatment is provided at the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant operated and maintained by the Water
and Sewer Authority of Cabarrus County. The City of Kannapolis
is a member of that Authority. A 201 Facilities Plan for the
Rocky River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (RRRWTP) was
prepared by Peirson and Whitman, Inc. in 1974 in conjunction with
the development of the RRRWTP.
Attached and made a part of this Facility Plan are Exhibits
11I-110, "I-2", and "I-3" which are copies of the Certification Of
Incorporation Of Water And Sewer Authority Of Cabarrus County,
Interim Operation Agreement of the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant and Additional Facilities and
Infrastructure, and Agreement To Designate The Water and Sewer
Authority Of Cabarrus County As The Management Planning Agency,
respectfully.
Also, sense this project will connect and flow through lines
being operated and maintained by the Water and Sewer Authority of
Cabarrus County, Exhibit "I-4" is a letter from the Water and
Sewer Authority -stating they will transport, accept and treat the
future projected flows from this project. This letter also
addresses the long range plan for funding and construction of all
major interceptors by the Authority.
B-1.2 CURRENT LEVEL OF SERVICES IN THE ANNEXATION AREA
Residents and commercial establishments in Annexation Area
"B" are presently utilizing septic tanks and nitrification fields
for their sanitary sewer disposal needs. These systems drain
toward Lake Fisher which is classified as a Public Water Supply
Watershed, WS IV.

The total Area "B" annexation area to be served by Contracts
XVII and XVIII is 528 acres. The City of Concord owns and
maintains approximately 100 acres as buffer to Lake Fisher.
Annexation Area "B" encompasses 1382 Acres or 11.4% of the
total Cold Water Creek Drainage Basin north of Centergrove Road.
Centergrove Road is the southern boundary of the Annexation Area.
See Map labeled as Exhibit 11I-5" for the overall boudary. The
drainage basin includes areas located within the following Towns,
with each town responsible for their own water and sewer needs:
City of Kannapolis
Town of China Grove
Town of Landis
As stated in the original 201 Facilities Plan for the Rocky
River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Town of China
Grove's and the Town of Landis's sewer will be treated by the
City of Salisbury. To what extent the Cold Water Creek Drainage
Basin will be developed by the various City's is up the
Individual City's Councils.
B-3 INFILTRATION/INFLOW
The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force main
installation would meet the State's regulations for infiltration
/exfiltration. All gravity sewer extensions will be meet the
State's requirements for a maximum_ infiltration rate of 100 gals
per day per inch diameter per mile of pipe. In order to verify
this limit, all extensions will be low pressure air tested for
leaks in accordance with ASTM C-828. All manhole to pipe .
connections will be made using a rubber boot. All manholes,
including the boot connections will be vacuum tested at 10" of
mercury. The manhole frame and covers will be installed a
minimum of 1 foot above the 100-year flood elevation to prevent
inflow.

SECTION C
FUTURE SITUATION
C-1 POPULATIONS PROJECTIONS
Reviews of the census records, feasibility studies for water
and sewer facilities within the area, and the Kan -la -con
Thoroughfare Study, all indicate that the population of the City
of Kannapolis should continue to expand. The City is located
adjacent to Interstate I-85 and within commuting distance to the
City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. As the City of
Charlotte and Mecklenburg County have expanded, the nearby
communities have also experienced a large amount of growth.
In order to project the future population of the City of
Kannapolis, it is assumed that the growth rate will be 1-1/2
percent per year, which is similar to other cities and
communities that surround the Charlotte -Mecklenburg area. Area
"B" is expected to have a higher growth rate than the area within
the current City due to the proximity to Interstate I- 85. Due to
the recent construction of water lines within the area, the
proposed construction of the sewer facilities in Contracts XVII
and XVIII, and the land available for development, this area has
features attractive to developers. Over the past 100 years, the
majority of the area near the center of Kannapolis has been
developed to support Fieldcrest Cannon and the local businesses.
This forces the future developments to migrate to Annexation
Areas where large land tracts with lower land costs offer the
ability to develop upscale residential communities with
amenities. Annexation Area "B" is highly suited for residential
development due to sparse existing commercial and industrial
development. The area also has a large number of existing City
maintained roads that provide access to the neighboring cities
and towns.
This area should have -very little commercial and industrial
development due to a Class IV Watershed Classification and its
proximity to Lake Fisher. Additional requirements for discharges
and limits to the developable area within a site will force
industries that would consider locating within the area to look
at other sites with lower development and operational costs.
The 1990 Census list the population of Kannapolis as 29696.
By using a growth rate of 1-1/2 percent, the City's population
should be 42450 in the year 2014. It is reasonable to assume
that the increase in population will create additional
residential development within the Annexation Areas. This
creates a higher growth rate than the average for the City of
Kannapolis over the next 20 years.
N.

The Annexation Report indicated that Annexation Area "B" had
a population of 888 in 1987. Using the same growth rate of 1-1/2
percent, the population would be 1327 in the year 2014. However,
it should be noted that the population of this area has been
restricted in the past by the lack of public water and sewer
facilities. This area is beginning to see residential
development. Several developers have constructed subdivisions
in this area by extending the existing sewer and water facilities
to their projects. One developer constructed a pump station to
pump the sewage to an existing sewer line in a different drainage
basin. By utilizing the pump station and extending the water and
sewer lines, approximately 150 lots have been developed along
Midlake Road since the Annexation Report was prepared. As houses
are built upon these lots, a population density of 2.4
individuals per unit will add an additional 360 individuals to
the Annexation Area. This trend is expected to continue as the
sewer lines_are constructed and -placed in service within this
area.
C-2 FLOW PROTECTIONS
The total annexation area to be served by Contracts XVII and
XVIII is 528 acres. The City of Concord owns and maintains
approximately 100 acres as buffer to Lake Fisher. It is my
professional opinion that the property owned by the City of
Concord will never be developed and therefore should be
eliminated from any design calculations for the area. The net
serviceable area is therefor 428 acres. The flow projections for
this area is based on the maximum lot density allowed under the
current Zoning and the Watershed Protection Ordinance which is
1/2 acre lots in the Critical Area. Based on this, the average
daily flow is calculated as follows:
Qa(flow in gpd)=2(Lots/acre)X360(Gals/lot)x 428Acres
Therefore, Qa=308,160gpd average daily flow which equals 214
gal/min.
Peak,Flow Qp(flow in gpd)= 2.5 x Qa
= 2.5 x 308,160 = 770,400gpd or 535 gpm
Based on 535 gpm peak flow for the Annexation Area being served
by the 16" sewer lines in this project, the flowing design
criteria is provided.
16" DIP Sewer Pipe @ 0.18% Grade
Qfull = 2.lmgd = 3.25 cfs
Vel @ Qfull = 2.33'ft/sec.
Based on 535gpm = 1.19 cfs or 56.67% of the Hydraulic Capacity.
Normal Depth of Flow = 0.56, = 6.72" or 42% of the depth.
Vel @ Normal Depth of Flow = 2.15 ft/sec.
E

WATERSHED PROTECTION
In order to protect the Lake Fisher Watershed, the City of
Kannapolis has amended the Code of Ordinances of the City of
Kannapolis with respect to zoning to include Watershed Overlay
Districts. Attached and made a part of this report is Exhibit
"I-7" which is a copy of the Lake Fisher Overlay District for
both the Critical Area and the balance of the watershed.
C-3 SPECULATIVEIACTUAL EFFLUENT LINUTATIONS
Not applicable.

SECTION D
ALTERNATIVES
D-1 NO AMON
Currently, there is no sewer service to the subject area.
Therefore, the area is not as accommodating to future development
due to the environmental concerns limitations, restrictions, and
development costs associated with areas not having public sewer.
A no action alternative would mean construction and maintenance
of individual septic tanks with nitrification fields, or numerous
sewer systems with pumping stations which have a greater
potential for adverse impacts on the environment.
In a no action alternative, some areas may be determined as
to costly to develop or not developable due to groundwater and
soil conditions.
A NO ACTION ALTERNATIVE will violate the General Statutes
concerning the Annexation of Area "B". Initial Phase I plans
called for the installation of the major sewer outfalls for the
expansion of service lines as funds become available. Contracts
XVII and XVIII were part of the Phase I installations.
Preliminary sewer line locations required to complete the
initial plans (Phase I) were shown on plans prepared by Alley,
Williams, Carmen & King, Inc. which were included in the
Annexation Report. In accordance with the General Statutes
concerning Annexation, detailed engineering plans for Phase I
shall be completed and contracts for construction awarded no
later than one year from the effective date of annexation.and
construction will be completed within two years after the date of
annexation. For Annexation Area "B", the effective date of
annexation was July 1, 1993. Therefore, the project must by
under contract prior to July 1, 1994 and construction must be
completed prior to July 1, 1995. Phase II Services are to be
installed as funds become available for construction.
D-2 GRAVITY FLOW ALTERNATIVE
This alternative would require the installation of
approximately 13,540 if of 16" gravity sewer main from Joyce
Street south along the west shore of Lake Fisher to the existing
sewer system at the base of the Lake Fisher Dam. This alternate
is not feasible due to the fact that if the line is at minimum
depth at Joyce Street, and run at minimum grade, the invert
elevation of the sewer outfall at the dam would be at elevation
610 feet, plus or minus, with a ground elevation of 660 feet,
plus or minus. The last 40001, plus or minus, of this line would
11

average 40 feet to 50 feet in depth. The operation and
maintenance of a line at this depth and length is not practical
or feasible. Manholes and lines at this depth also require
additional safety precautions to comply with OSHA regulations
dealing with confined spaces. There are also several
obstructions to construction with this alternate. They are the
location of the existing Duke Power Electrical Substation on the
south side of Brantley Road and the Lake Fisher Raw Water
Pumping Station located at the Lake Fisher Dam.
PRIMARY DESIGN CRITERIA
This sewer extension would be designed in accordance with
the North Carolina Administrative Code Section 15 NCAC 2H.0219
Waste Not Discharged to Surface Waters Amended February 1, 1993.
With Lake Fisher being a WS IV Watershed, certain
minimum separations are required. Waters classified as
a Class IV Watershed shall have a minimum of 100 foot
separation between the sanitary sewer and normal high
water (normal pool). Where'the minimum separation
cannot be maintained, ferris metal pipe with water main
joint standards shall be used, provided that at no
place shall the separation be less than 50 feet.
D-3 GRAVITY FLOW WITH PUMP STATIONS ALTERNATIVE
Contracts XVII and Contract XVIII, as proposed, will provide
sewer service for the west side of Lake Fisher. Attached and
made a part of this Report is Exhibit "B" which is a map showing
the location of the proposed sewer lines.
The sewer system is approximately 5968 linear feet of 16"
ductile iron gravity flow line along the west shore of Lake
Fisher from Joyce Street to a proposed 430 gallons per minute
(gpm) duplex submersible lift station located on the north side
of Brantley Road. This station will discharge, via approximately
430 linear feet of 6" ductile iron force main west along Brantley
Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will
flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900 linear feet of 16"
ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed 560 gallon per
minute (gpm) duplex submersible sewer lift station to be located
near the intersection of Centergrove Road and Mid -Lake Road.
This station will discharge, via 1485 linear feet of 8" ductile
iron force main cross country and along Lake Fisher Road to a
proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will flow
again by gravity thru approximately 1287 linear feet of 15" PVC
sewer pipe along Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove Road to the
City of Kannapolis's existing sewer system on Cold Water Creek.
12

Approximately 1182 linear feet of 8" pvc and ductile iron
gravity flow sanitary sewer outfall will also connect to the
proposed lift station at Mid -Lake and Centergrove Road. This
line will provide sewer service to the Lake Fisher Road area.
Also included in this project is approximately 190 linear
feet of 8" sanitary sewer along a un-named tributary to Lake
Fisher from the 16" gravity flow line to existing Beaver Pond
Subdivision sewer lift station. This line will eliminate the
Beaver Pond sewer lift station and provide a gravity system for
that subdivision. (See Exhibit "I-6")
Projected Wastewater flows:
The design flows will be accumulative as lines are extended
in the service area over the next five to ten years.
A. Brantley Road Sewer Lift Station
The design flow is based on the annexation drainage area
located above the proposed lift station site. This area totals
270 acres. The estimated design flow is 270 acres x 2.0 housing
units per acre at 360 gals/unit which equals 194,400 gpd or 135
gpm average daily flow. The peak flow equals 337.5 gpm.
B. Mid -Lake Sewer Lift Station
The design flow is based on the annexation drainage area
located above the proposed lift station site. This area totals
428 acres. The estimated design flow is based on 428 acres x 2.0
housing units per acre at 360 gals/unit which equals 308,160 gpd
or 214 gpm average daily flow. The peak flow equals 535 gpm.
Both stations will be designed with additional storage and
the capability of changing impellers as the future flow
increases. Both stations will be equipped.with automatic
transfer switches and emergency generators. The emergency
generators will be fueled by liquid petroleum or natural gas.
Diesel fuel will not be considered since the lift stations are
adjacent to a public water supply.
Both lift stations are designed for a average daily flow
rate less, the 1,000,000.00 gals/day.
This system will permit the property in the Cold Water Creek
(Lake Fisher) drainage basin to develop in an orderly fashion
without the nuisance of individual septic tanks or individual
subdivision Pump Stations.
13

PRIMARY DESIGN CRITERIA
This sewer extension will be designed in accordance with
North Carolina Administrative Code Section 15 NCAC 2H.0219 Waste
Not Discharged to Surface Waters Amended February 1, 1993.
With Lake Fisher being a WS IV Watershed, certain
minimum separations are required. Waters classified as
a Class IV Watershed shall have a minimum of 100 foot
separation between the sanitary sewer and normal high water
(normal pool). Where the minimum separation cannot be
maintained, ferris metal pipe with water main joint
standards shall be used, provided that at no place shall the
separation be less than 50 feet.
For pumping stations, no by-pass or overflow lines,
multiple pumps shall be provided capable of pumping at
a rete of 2.5 times the average daily flow rate with
with any one pump out of service. Pump-on/pump-off
elevations shall be set such that 2-8 cycles per hour
may be achieved in the pump station at average flow.
At least one of the following shall be required: (a)
dual source or standby power supply on site, or: (b)
telemetry systems with sufficient numbers of standby
generators and personnel for distribution.

SECTION E
PRESENT WORTH ANALYSIS
E-1 NO ACTION
If the facility is not constructed, the City of Kannapolis
will not incur any direct cost with this option except for the
maintenance of existing public facilities and or the maintenance
of Facilities installed by developers. However, a NO ACTION
ALTERNATIVE will violate the General Statutes concerning the
extension of City sewer services to this Annexation Area. This
could expose the City to possible litigation.

SECTION F
USER CHARGES AND FINANCIAL CAPABILITIES
See attached City of Kannapolis Projection of Water and
Sewer Fund Net Revenues and payment schedule. of a loan through
the State Bond Program.
Based on a simple interest loan with a declining payment and a
principal amount of 1,736,000.00 @ 5.00% Interest, the first year
payment is $173,600.00.
Therefore: Debt Service $173,600.00/year
Power Consumption $ 12,000.00/year
Operation/Maintenance $ 3,000.00/Year
Total Cost $187,950.00/year
Total Yearly Projected Flow (City Wide): 850,000,000 gals
$187,950.00/850,000 = $.221 increase per 1000 gals.
The impact on the sewer user fees for the average customer with
5000 gals/month = 5 x $.221 = $1.11/month.
However, the City Manager has proposed in the 1994-1995 Budget,
that the sewer user fee be increased $0.19 per 1000 gallons and
the water user fees be increased $.19 per 1000 gallons.
This equates to an impact on the sewer user fee for the average
customer with 5000 gals/month of $.95. The remainder of the
revenue will be generated by the expansion of the customer base
and tap fees.

EXCERPTS FROM COU1•iCII. MEETDiG
MARCH 28, 1994
PUBLIC HEARING CONCERNING FINANCING OF SEWER EMPROVEMENTS
THROUGH THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH
Mayor Anderson referred to the City Manager's memorandum dated March 21, 1994 and
stated that under the Education, Clean Water and Parks Act of 1993 (ACT) municipalities may
make application for loans and grants to aid eligible units of government the cost of construction
of wastewater treatment works, wastewater collection systems and water supply systems and
water conservation projects. (Copy of memorandum included in official minutes as Exhibit F)
Mayor Anderson then deferred to the City Manager for finther comment.
City Manager McCombs explained that the City has no assurance that the loan will be
approved as the City will be in competition with other municipalities for the money that is
available. Staff feels a more favorable rate can be obtained, if approved, rather than using other
means of financing. The City would finance $1,736,000 for a twenty (20) year period with the
first payment due in 1995 in the amount of $128,000. This payment approximates 1.4 cents on
the tax rate.
The City intends to construct a wastewaster collection system project described as Sewer
I West and Sewer II West in the Area "B" annexation area on the west side of Fisher Lake.
City Manager McCombs stated that City Council may consider several possible methods
of repaying the debt service that include on increase in water and sewer user fees or reduce the
amount of money put aside in the Capital Improvement Program each year and use toward the
debt service or the possibility of increasing taxes.
In order for the City to proceed with the application, City Council must conduct a public
hearing.
Mayor Anderson then opened the public hearing and gave those in attendance an
opportunity to speak.
Guy Maher of 1700 Azalea Street wanted to make sure he understood that in order to
finance the water and sewer project there could be a tax increase or as another avenue of funding
to raise water and sewer rates and asked if it would be city wide.
City Manager McCombs reiterated the options Council may consider in the repayment of
the loan.
Mr. Maher asked if this was something that was considered before annexation occurred
or is there any way it can be financed through possible construction in the area in order to relieve
the tax burden of other tax payers in the City that do not have any specific interests in the area.
Mr. Maher stated that he understands as a City, all benefit from what comes into the City, but
is concerned that when decisions are made, all citizens are effected and have no recourse other
than to pay the bill.
There being no further speakers from the floor, Mayor Anderson closed the public
hearing.

SECTION H
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
For sanitary sewer extensions, there are two (2) sets of criteria
that determine if an Assessment is required. They are as
follows:
1. Sewer lines greater than three miles in length
and/or having a design flow of one million
gallons per day or greater.
2. Pump Stations with a pumping capacity of one
million gallons per day or more.
The total project length is 15,248.75 if or 2.89 miles of pipe
which is less than 3.0 miles and the average daily projected
flow is equal to 308,160 gpd. The maximum peak pumping rate is
770,400.00 gallons per day.
Both Lift Stations are designed for a average daily flow rate
less the 1,000,000.00 gals/day.
It is my professional opinion that an Environmental Assessment is
not required for this project.
However, an Environmental Assessment is included in this report
to meet the criteria set forth under the State Bond program.

1.01 TOPOGRAPHY
The proposed project area is located in Cabarrus and Rowan
Counties, North Carolina, within the City Limits of the City of
Kannapolis. More specifically, the project will consist of
sanitary sewer outfalls, pumping stations and force mains along
the west shore of Lake Fisher beginning at Centergrove Road (SR
2114) crossing Brantley Road and Lane Street to Joyce Street.
Two (2) wastewater lift station are proposed in series.
Beginning at the northern end of the project, the gravity flow
outfall will begin at Joyce Street and flow in a southern
direction to a proposed sewer lift station at Brantley Road. The
first lift station will pump sewage, via a proposed 6" force main
to be installed west along Brantley Road to a proposed manhole at
the west boundary of the existing Duke Power Electrical Sub -
Station. From there, a gravity line will continue along the west
shore of Lake Fisher to a second proposed sewer lift station on
an un-named tributary near the intersection of Mid -lake Road and
Centergrove. This lift station will also provide gravity sewer
service to the Lake Fisher Road area south of Lake Fisher. This
lift station will pump sewage, via a proposed 8" force main to be
installed south to a proposed manhole near the intersection of
Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove. From there, the proposed
system will flow west to the existing sewer system on Cold Water
Creek.
The proposed utility will provide sewer service for both the
Existing City Limits and also future development in the area
north of Kannapolis.
The proposed project area varies in elevations from
approximately 650 feet to 680 feet above sea level. Slopes for
the project area are generally from 2% to 12%.
1.02 LAND USE
The land use along the length of the project is undisturbed
land with some farm land. The majority of the proposed sewer
improvements will be installed within Rights -of -ways being
acquired by the City of Kannapolis. The remainder of the project
will be installed along the State's roadway rights -of -way on Lane
Street, Brantley Road, and Centergrove Road. The sites for the
proposed wastewater lift stations are undisturbed woodlands.
EA-2

1.03 SOILS
The predominate soils at the proposed site area are well
drained, with moderately to slowly permeable. These soil types
are primarily Altvista Sandy Loam, Enon Sandy Loam and Poindexter
Loam. One small section of outfall of approximately 200 feet in
length crosses a section of Chewacla Sandy Loan that is poorly
drained with moderate permeability.
1.04 SURFACE WATERS
The proposed outfall crosses two
are designated as blue lines on the 7
maps. The crossings are approximately
feet north of Brantley Road. No other
impacted by -the project.
1.05 GROUNDWATER
(2) perennial streams that
1/2 minute USGS quadrangle
1100 feet south, and 1400
existing surface waters are
No soil borings are recorded for the proposed project area.
The design and/or method of construction include ductile iron
pipe with water main standard joints. All lines will be air
tested for leaks, manholes and pump station wetwells will vacuum
tested and manhole to pipe connections will include watertight
rubber boots. These measures will be implemented to eliminate
the potential for groundwater contamination. The gravity flow
sanitary sewer system will extend service to area that have
failing septic tanks and drain fields.
EA-3

SECTION 2
PURPOSE
2.01 PURPOSE
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide sewer
service to the west side of Lake Fisher in Annexation Area "B" on
the east side of the City of Kannapolis which has a potential for
development in the near future.
would be served with sewer by extensions of the City of
Kannapolis's sewer collection system.
EA-4

SECTION 3
ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS
3.01 NO ACTION ALTERNATIVE
Currently, there is no sewer service to the subject area.
Therefore, the area is not as accommodating to future development
due to the environmental concerns limitations, restrictions, and
development costs associated with areas not having public sewer.
A no action alternative would mean construction and maintenance
of individual sewer systems which have a greater potential for
adverse impacts on the environment.
Also, in a no action alternative, some areas may be
determined as to costly to develop or not developable due to
groundwater and soil conditions.
3.02 SEWER EXTENSION ALTERNATIVE - GRAVITY FLOW SYSTEM
Sewer System Improvements
This alternative would require the installation of
approximately 13,000 if of 16" gravity sewer main from Joyce
Street south along the west shore of Lake Fisher to the existing
sewer system at the base of the Lake Fisher Dam. This alternate
is not feasible due to the fact that the invert elevation at the
dam would be at elevation 610 feet, plus or minus, with a ground
elevation of 660 feet, plus or minus. The last 40001, plus or
minus, of this line would average 40 feet to 50 feet in depth.
Obstructions to construction of this alternate are the existing
Duke Power Electrical Substation and the Lake Fisher Raw Water
Pumping Station.
3.03 SEWER EXTENSION ALTERNATIVE - GRAVITY FLOW SYSTEMS AND
FORCE MAINS
Sewer System Improvements
The sewer system as proposed is approximately 5968 linear
feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line along the west shore
of Lake Fisher from Joyce Street to a proposed 430 gallons per
minute (gpm) duplex submersible lift station located on the north
side of Brantley Road. This station will discharge, via
approximately 430 linear feet of 6" ductile iron force main west
along Brantley Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the
wastewater will flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900
EA-5

linear feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed
560 gallon per flow again by gravity thru approximately 4900
linear feet of 16" ductile iron gravity flow line to a proposed
560 gallon per minute (gpm) duplex submersible sewer lift station
to be located near the intersection of Centergrove Road and Mid -
Lake Road. This station will discharge, via 1485 linear feet of
8" ductile iron force main cross country and along Lake Fisher
Road to a proposed manhole. From that point, the wastewater will
flow again by gravity thru approximately 1287 linear feet of 15"
PVC sewer pipe along Lake Fisher Road and Centergrove Road to the
City of Kannapolis's existing sewer system on Cold Water Creek.
Approximately 1182 linear feet of 8" ductile iron gravity
flow sanitary sewer outfall will also connect to the proposed
lift station at Mid -Lake and Centergrove Road. Also included in
this project is approximately 190 linear feet of 8" sanitary
sewer along a un-named tributary to Lake Fisher from the 16"
gravity flow line to existing Beaver Pond Subdivision sewer lift
station. This line will eliminate the Beaver Pond sewer lift
station and provide a gravity system for that subdivision. (See
Site Location Map)
EA-6

SECTION 4
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES
4.01 CHANGES INLAND USE
For the utilities being located in the rights -of -way of
existing roads (Centergrove Road, Brantley Road and Lane
Street), there is no change in land use imposed by the project
construction.
The proposed sewer outfall is primarily proposed to be
constructed in the rights -of -way purchased by the City of
Kannapolis. These Rights -of -way widths are dictated by the OSHA
requirements for 1:1 theoretical side slopes for depth of cover
for construction and maintenance. The portion of the project
impacted by the cross country sewer outfalls and lift stations is
currently farmland/woodland. The areas around these proposed
facilities can continue to be farmed upon construction
completion. Therefore, the only change in land use, as a result
of constructing this project, is the site for the wastewater lift
stations. (See Site Location Map)
4.02 WETLANDS
The proposed project should have no adverse effects on
wetlands since the proposed utility is to be constructed within
existing roadway rights -of -way and the cross country sewer
outfall and wastewater lift stations are proposed in areas
currently serving as farmland/woodland. The only known wetlands
are stream two (2) stream crossings.
4.03 AGRICULTURAL LANDS
The proposed project will have minimal impact on
agricultural lands. The only impact will be the sites for the
wastewater lift stations which will no longer be woodlands.
4.04 PUBLIC LANDS
The proposed sewer extension would have no significant
impact on public lands in the area. The property owned by the
City of Concord was purchased at the time of construction of Lake
Fisher and is provided for undeveloped buffer around the lake.
4.05 SCENIC AND RECREATIONAL AREAS
There are no scenic or recreational areas that will be
affected by the proposed project.
EA-7

4.06 ARCHAEOLOGICAL OR HISTORICAL SITES
To the best of our knowledge, there are no archeological or
historical sites in the area that will be affected by the
proposed sewer utility extension. Should it be determined at a
later date, that archaeological resources exist in the project
area, adjustments will be made to preserve on record anything of
archaeological value.
4.07 AIR QUALITY
The overall effect of air quality in the area will be
negligible. Some short term effects caused by wind blown dust
and engine exhaust during construction may occur. Through notes
on the Construction Plans and in the Technical Specifications
the contractor will be encouraged to merchandise fully stocked
stands of timber, collected during the minimum clearing required,
to minimize burning of debris during construction.
4.08 GROUNDWATER QUALITY
The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force main
installation would meet the State's regulations for
infiltration/exfiltration. Therefore, there is no expected
impact on the groundwater quality.
4.09 NOISE LEVELS
Noise during construction will not be a problem to
residences that might be within listening range since
construction work will be done during the daylight. Once the
proposed extension is operational, there will be no noise
associated with the underground utilities and little noise
associated with the operation of the pump stations. However, the
noise of the lift stations would be intermittent and the stations
designs will mitigate its effects.
4.10 WATER SUPPLIES
Lake Fisher is classified as a WS IV Public Water Supply
Watershed.. The proposed gravity sewer, lift stations, and force
main installation will meet the State's regulations for
installation of sanitary sewers adjacent to public water
supplies as set out in North Carolina Administrative Code Section
15 NCAC 2H.0219. Therefore, there is no expected impact on the
public water supply.

4.11 FISH AND THEIR HABITATS
No fish and their habitats will be impacted by the proposed
project.
4.12 WILDLIFE AND THEIR HABITATS
There will be no impact on wildlife as a result of the
construction and operation of this project. The wildlife
existing in the project area is small game such as rabbits and
birds.
4.13 INTRODUCTION OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES
There will be no introduction of toxic substances to the
environment -as a result of this project.
4.14 EUTROPHICATION OF RECEIVING WATERS
There are no receiving waters, the proposed lift stations
will pump wastewater to the City of Kannapolis's existing sewer
collection system.
EA-9

SECTION 5
MITIGATIVE MEASURES
Measures are proposed to mitigate or avoid any adverse
environmental impacts the proposed extensions might have on the
area during construction and operation. Such measures will be
implemented to control erosion, reforestation of portions of the
construction easements, construction, noise, and system failure.
5.01 EROSION CONTROL
Erosion control measures and good construction practices
will be implemented to protect the surrounding areas from
siltation and pollution. Temporary or Permanent vegetation will
be planted immediately upon installation of no more than 1000
feet of line and shall continue such that no more than 1000 feet
of installed line is bare at any one time.
5.02 CONSTRUCTION LIMITS
Construction limits will be imposed during the construction
of the proposed extensions to eliminate the potential of harm to
trees not in the construction path.
5.03 NOISE LEVEL
The noise level at the wastewater lift stations sites would
be minimal. The noise of the standby generator would only occur
during electrical failure and would be muffled by the building
enclosure.
5.04 SYSTEM FAILURE
The design of the proposed
incorporate measures to prevent
should the system fail.
A. System Capacity
wastewater lift stations would
a hazard to the environment
The proposed pumping systems have a design capacity of 430
gpm and 560 gpm, respectfully. The proposed systems will consist
of two (2) pumps alternating as lead pump and each pump capable
of pumping at the design capacities of the wastewater flows.
Therefore, the run time for each pump is reduced and redundancy
is provided in the case of pump failure.
EA-10

B. Loss of Power
In the case of electrical power failure to the pumping
stations, a standby emergency generator will be provided to
deliver power to the pumps for continued pumping.
C. Overflow and Leakage
As described above, redundant pumping capacity and a standby
generator will reduce the probability of overflow from the pump
station. Alarms and telemetry communication to indicate the
system malfunctions will alert the City's operator to problems at
the lift stations.
Careful design and good construction practices will be
implemented to eliminate the possibility of leakage from the wet
well.

7. NPDES Permit Transfer. Concord and the Authority agree to
forward to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management
(DEM) an appropriate letter requesting that Concord no longer be
the Permittee and that the Authority become the Permittee for the
47-

NPDES Permit issued for the operation of and discharge from the
RRRWWTP.
8. Acceptance of Wastewater for Treatment. The Authority
recognizes that each constituent unit of local government which has
formed the Authority must obtain approval from the North Carolina
Department of Environment Health and Natural Resources (DEHNR) of
any proposed construction of new sewer lines, both private and
public, and that such approval can be granted only if the Authority
can accept and treat the volume of wastewater projected to arise
from the new construction. The Authority agrees to adopt a policy
which will comply with DEHNR requirements and to provide a response
to the respective unit of government for such capacity request
within no more than fifteen (15) days from the receipt of complete

of concurrence from the constituent unit in which the project is
located. The Authority agrees that it shall accept the wastewater
for treatment and shall not approve any actual connection unless
the connection proposed to be made is to an interceptor included in
the Additional Facilities and Infrastructure or to other sewer
lines owned by the Authority or over which the Authority has
control.
9. Pretreatment Agreements. The Authority shall enter into
an agreement with each constituent unit, i.e. Concord, Cabarrus,

-Subject: City of Kannapolis Annexation Area "B"
(Contracts XIV, XV, XVII and XV M
Dear Mr. McCombs:
As you are aware, we have available treatment capacity at the Rocky River Regional
Wastewater Treatment Plant (RRRWTP) to handle. anticipated flows from your newly annexed
Area "B". I have written letters of flow acceptance to Jeff Moody as your various projects have
been submitted for approval.
• The existing Cold Water Creek Interceptor, owned and operated by the •Water and -Sewer
Authority of Cabarrus County (WSACC); is the means of . transportation of Area "B" waste-
water to the RRRWTP. The Cold Water Creek Interceptor was constructed around 1966 and
serves a drainage basin, including your Area "B", that has the potential for significant
development by Cabarrus County and the City of Concord as well as _the City of Kannapolis.
We are aware that flow capacity in this system may be exceeded in the future.
Boyle Engineering is now in the process of .completing a master plan for WSACC to
identify and .prioritize future sewer needs including the Cold Water basin. It is our intent in
keeping With the mission and objectives of WSACC, to develop a long range plan for funding
and construction of all major interceptors in our service area.
Sincerely,

Critical Area (CA). The area adjacent to a water supply intake or reservoir
where risk associated with pollution is greater than from the remaining portions
of the watershed. The critical area is defined as extending either one-half mile
from the normal pool elevation of the reservoir in which the intake is located or
to the ridge line of the watershed (whichever comes first); 6r one-half mile
upstream from the intake located directly in the stream or river (run -of -the -
river), or the ridge line of the watershed (whichever comes first). Lo6al
governments may extend the critical area as needed. Major landmarks such as
highways or property lines may be used to delineate the outer boundary of the
critical area if these landmarks are immediately adjacent to the appropriate
outer boundary of one-half mile.
Development. Any land disturbing activity which adds to or changes the amount of
impervious or partially impervious cover on a land area or which otherwise
decreases the infiltration of precipitation into the soil.
Discharging Landfill. A facility with liners, monitoring equipment and other
measures to detect and/or prevent leachate from entering the environment and in
which the leachate is treated on site and discharged to a receiving stream.

or assimilation into any organism, either directly from the environment or
indirectly by ingestion through food chains, has the potential to cause death,
disease, behavioral abnormalities, cancer, genetic mutations, physiological
malfunctions (including malfunctions or suppression in reproduction or growth) or

physical deformities in such organisms or their offspring or other adverse health
effects.
Variance. A permission to develop or use property granted by the Board of
Adjustment relaxing or waiving a water supply watershed management requirement
that is incorporated into this Ordinance.
Water Dependent Structure. Any structure for which the use requires access to or
proximity to or siting within surface waters to fulfill its basic purpose, such

of Subsection 5:3.5, WP, Watershed Protection Overlay and designating Subsection
5:3.5 as "reserved", by de e�ubsection 5:3.5.1, Lot Area Requirements, and
by creating the following new Subsections:
"5:3.8 General Provisions Applicable to All Watershed Overlav Districts
The following general provisions apply to all Watershed Overlay Districts. These
provisions and the provisions contained in the Individual Watershed Overlay
Districts are designed to protect the water quality of the Water Supply
Watersheds that lie within the jurisdiction of this Ordinance and to implement
the rules adopted by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission for
the classified watersheds pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes 143-214.5.
(a) The construction of new roads and bridges and non-residential' development
should minimize built -upon area, divert stormwater away from surface water
supply waters as much as possible, and employ best management practices
(BMPs) to minimize water quality impacts. To the extent practicable, the
construction of new roads in the critical area should be avoided. The
Department of Transportation BMPs as outlined in their document entitled
"Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters" shall be
used in all road and bridge construction projects in the Watershed Overlay
Districts.
(b) All development activities within Watershed Overlay Districts, in addition
to those activities specifically regulated by these provisions, are subject
to the standards, usage conditions and other regulations contained in the
Rules and Requirements of the Surface Water Supply Protection Rules adopted
by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
(c) A minimum 30-foot vegetative buffer for development activities is required
along all perennial waters, including streams, rivers and impoundments,
indicated on the most recent versions, of United States Geodetic Survey
(USGS) 1: 24,000 scale topographic maps; provided, that nothing in this

Subsection shall prevent artificial streambank or shoreline stabilization.
No new development is allowed in the.:buffer, except that water dependent
structures, and public works projects such as road crossings and greenways
may be allowed where no practicable alternative exists. These activities
shall minimize built -upon surface area, direct runoff away from the surface
water, and maximize the utilization of BMPs.
(d) Existing development, as defined in this Ordinance, is not subject to the
requirements of the overlay provisions. Expansions to structures classified
as existing development must meet the requirements of these provisions,
provided however, the built -upon area of the existing development is not
required to be included in the density calculations. In determining
expansions to existing development, the maximum permitted additional built -
upon area is derived by -multiplying the area of the portion of the property
that is not built -upon by the appropriate percent built -upon limitation for
- the'Overlay District 'in which 'the property is located.
(e) A pre-existing lot created prior to the effective date of this Ordinance,
regardless -of whether or not a vested right has been established, may be
developed or :redeveloped for single family residential purposes without
being subject to the restrictions of these overlay provisions.
(f) Any existing building or built -upon area not in conformance with the
limitations of these provisions that has been damaged or removed for any
reason may be repaired and/or reconstructed, provided:
(1) Repair or reconstruction is initiated within twelve (12) months and
completed within two (2) years of such damage or removal.
(2) The total amount of space devoted to built -upon area may not be
increased.
(3) The repair or reconstruction is otherwise permitted under the
provisions of this Ordinance.
(g) No activity, situation, structure or land use shall be permitted or allowed
to operate within a watershed which poses a threat to water quality and the
public health, safety and welfare. Such conditions may arise from
inadequate on -site sewage systems which utilize ground absorption;
inadequate sedimentation and erosion control measures; the improper storage
or disposal of junk, trash or other refuse within a buffer area; the absence
or improper implementation of a spill containment plan for toxic and
hazardous materials; the improper management of stormwater runoff; or any
other situation found to pose a threat to water quality.
(h) The Zoning Administrator may require such information on Zoning Compliance
Permit and Development Plan applications, including density/built-upon area
calculations, as he may deem necessary to determine compliance with
Watershed Overlay District provisions.
(i) The Zoning Administrator may, prior to the issuance of any permit in a
Watershed Overlay District, require evidence of a valid Sedimentation
Control Permit issued by the State of North Carolina or evidence
satisfactory to the Administrator that no permit is required.
7Q

(j) The Zoning Administrator shall maintain records of the administration of the
Watershed Overlay District regulations and shall submit any modifications of
the regulations to the Division of -Environmental Management, Division of
Environmental Health and Division of Community Assistance. The Zoning
Administrator shall also maintain a record of variances issued and shall
submit an annual report of each project receiving a variance and the reason
for the variance to the Division of Environmental Management.
5:3.9 KLWS-CA Kannapolis Lake Watershed Critical Area Overlay
The purpose of the KLWS-CA Kannapolis Lake Watershed Critical Area Overlay is to
provide for protection of the Kannapolis Lake Water Supply consistent with the
WS-III Critical Area watershed management rules as adopted by the North Carolina

plan approved by the Kannapolis Fire Chief or his designated agent.
(d) New industrial development shall incorporate adequately designed,
constructed and maintained spill containment structures, as determined
by the Kannapolis Fire Chief or his designated agent, if hazardous
materials are either used, stored or manufactured on the premises.
5:3.9.2 Density/Built-upon Limitations
(a) Residential development shall not exceed one (1) dwelling unit per acre
or, optionally, twelve percent (12%) built -upon area, on a project by
project basis.
(b) Non-residential development shall not exceed twelve percent (12%)
built -upon area, on a project by project basis.
5:3.10 KLWS-BW Kannapolis Lake Watershed Balance of Watershed Overlay
The purpose of the KLWS-BW Kannapolis Lake Watershed Balance of Watershed Overlay
