Re: Fast Track Sewer System Extension Permit-Modification
City of Locust—North Basin Sanitary Sewer Improvements
Dear Mr.Tuvia,
On behalf of the City of Locust I am submitting herein an application package for a Non-Discharge(FTA 04-16)
permit in association with the above referenced project. The application is for a requested modification to permit
WQ0019705 dated 12/4/2019 which was a modification to permit WQ0019705 dated 8/29/2001. This remains a
zero(0)flow permit action.
The requested permit modification is a result of third-party development in the project area preceding the
proposed project thereby resulting in the need to modify the proposed sanitary force main alignments and the
deletion of the previously approved 12"gravity sewers. The affected areas in the permit are the"Creekview"and
"East" basins.
I am available at your convenience should you have immediate questions or need further information. Thank you
for your time and efforts on this project.
Sincerely,
4.7)4/(/`)°
