To Whom It Concerns,
The proposed project, "Morris at Belmont" is a residential apartment complex that
is located in Belmont, Gaston County, South Carolina. The site is located on the south
side of Wilkinson Boulevard and east of the terminus of McLean Street. The proposed
main entrance will be located directly across from Terrace Road, and a secondary
entrance will be a road extension of Romany Lane.
The proposed project will be served by gravity sewer and will provide service to
nineteen (19) residential buildings and one (1) amenity center. A flow of 83,280 GPD will
be required to serve a total of 322 units and a flow of 5,780 GPD for an amenity center.
Totaling a flow allocation for the development 89,060 GPD.
Sincerely,
ESP Associates, Inc.

Sanitary Sewer Design Flow Calculations
The Morris at Belmont
City of Belmont
Gaston County, North Carolina
Allowable Flow in 8" PVC Gravity Sewer:
Maximum Average Daily Flow = 545,760 gpd (379 gpm)
Proposed Single Family Units — 116 (with 1 bedroom/unit)
Design Unit Flow — 120 gpd/unit*
Proposed Single Family Units — 156 (with 2 bedrooms/unit)
Design Unit Flow — 240 gpd/unit*
Proposed Single Family Units — 50 (with 3 bedrooms/unit)
Design Unit Flow — 360 gpd/unit*
Proposed Amenity Center
Design Flow — 97,776 gpd (67.9 gpm)**
Total Sanitary Sewer Design Flow
Flow to The Morris at Belmont
= 116 units (1 bedrooms/unit) x 120 gpd/unit = 13,920 gpd
= 156 units (2 bedrooms/unit) x 240 gpd/unit = 37,440 gpd
= 50 units (3 bedrooms/unit) x 360 gpd/unit = 18,000 gpd
= 97,776 gpd
TOTAL = 167,136 gpd

III. Certification Statement:
I Adrian T. Miller, City Manager certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the receiving
wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to cause any capacity
related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station en route to the receiving
treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation of the planned improvements
identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This analysis has been performed in accordance
with local established policies and procedures using the best available data. This certification applies to
those items listed above in Sections I and II plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I
am the responsible party. Signature of this form certifies that the receiving collection system or treatment
works has adequate capacit,� to transport and treat the proposed new wastewater.
