III. Certification Statement:
I Nicole Johnston certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewaterto 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 phis 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 capacity to transport and treat the proposed new wastewater.

maintained by the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority. The required flow allocation is based on 360
gallons per day for the 45 (forty-five) three -bedroom homes for a total flow of 16,200 gallons per day.
Please find enclosed:
1. This cover letter with the project narrative description in the paragraph above;
2. A check in the amount of $480.00 made payable to the NCDEQ as Payment of the
application review fee, for the PUBLIC portion of the sewer extension;
3. One original and one copy of a completed and executed "Fast Track Sewer System
Extension Application FTA 06-21 ", for gravity sewers, pump stations and force mains,
for the private sewer extension;
4. One original and one copy of a completed "Flow Tracking for Sewer Extension
Applications" Form FTSE — 10-18, for the private sewer extension;
5. One color copy of the USGS topographic map of this area;
6. A street level map showing the general project area;
7. And, a CD containing a pdf of the application and all supporting documentation.
Please review the enclosed information and notify our office of permit approval. Should you require
