215.1 C(al )]
6. Construction of the gravity sewers, pump stations, and force mains shall be scheduled so as not to
interrupt service by the existing utilities nor result in an overflow or bypass discharge of wastewater

tributary to the wastewater collection system extension prior to completion of this Engineer's
Certification shall be considered a violation of the permit and shall subject the Permittee to
appropriate enforcement actions.
If the permit is issued to a private entity with an Operational Agreement, then a copy of the
Articles of Incorporation, Declarations Covenants/Restrictions, and Bylaws that have been
appropriately filed with the applicable ounty's Register of Deeds office shall be submitted
with the certification.
A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are

force mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Final record drawings should be
clear on the plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and are defined as the design drawings
that are marked up or annotated with after construction information and show required buffers,
separation distances, material changes, etc.
b. One copy of the supporting applicable design calculations including pipe and pump sizing,
velocity, pump cycle times, and level control settings, pump station buoyancy, wet well storage,
surge protection, detention time in the wet well, and force main, ability to flush low points in
force mains with a pump cycle, and downstream sewer capacity analysis. If a portable power
source or pump is dedicated to multiple stations, an evaluation of all the pump stations' storage
capacities and the rotation schedule of the portable power source or pump, include travel
timeframes, shall be provided.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations, or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification
in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting
in non-compliance with this permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased
flow, pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and increases in the
number/type of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested modifications
or variances to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case -by -case basis and each on
its own merit. Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be requested and
approved during the permitting process prior to construction. After -construction requests are
Page 6 of 8

discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or repair prior to
certification & activation. [ 15A NCAC 02T .0116]
Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the Division's
Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified until
corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined, a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation.
This shall be done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests will be evaluated
on a case -by -case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and
submitting the construction certification. [ 15A NCAC 02T.0105(n)]
9. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life
of the wastewater collection facilities. [ 15A NCAC 02T .0116]
10. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the
Division's Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996, as applicable; the Division's
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted
June 1, 2000, as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an
enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes § 143-215.6A
through § 143-215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities,
and/or referral of the North Car lina-licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board. [15A
NCAC 02T .0104; 15A NCAC 02T .0108(b-c)]
11. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those
as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement facilities.
[ 15A NCAC 02T .0110; 15A NCAC 02T .0108(b)]
12. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by the Division any other Federal, State, or
Local government agencies which have jurisdiction or obtaining other permits which maybe required
by the Division or any other Federal, State, of Local government agencies. [G.S. 143-215. 1 (b)]

143-215.1 to construct, maintain, and operate the Disposal System.

and lands through filing of a Declaration of Unit Ownership (hereinafter Declaration), pursuant to Chapter
47C of the North Carolina General Statutes.
5. The DEVELOPER has caused to be formed or will cause to be formed at the time of filing of the Declaration,
the Stratford Homeowners Association, Inc. (hereinafter Association), a
non-profit corporation organized and existing under and by the virtue of the laws of the State of North
Carolina, for the purpose, among others, of handling the property, affairs and business of the
Development; of operating, maintaining, re -constructing and repairing the common elements of the lands
and improvements subject to unit ownership, including the Disposal System; and of collecting dues and
assessments to provide funds for such operation, maintenance, re -construction and repair.

4. The DEVELOPER shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System and
appurtenances thereto are part of the common elements and shall thereafter be properly maintained and
operated in conformity with law and the provisions of the permit for construction, operation, repair, and
maintenance of the system and facilities. The Declaration and Bylaws shall identify the entire wastewater
treatment, collection and disposal system as a common element, which will receive the highest priority for
expenditures by the Association except for Federal, State, and local taxes and insurance.
5. The DEVELOPER shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System will
be maintained out of the common expenses. In order to assure that there shall be funds readily available to
repair, maintain or construct the Disposal System, beyond the routine operation and maintenance expenses,
the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide that a fund be created out of the common expenses.
Such fund shall be separate from the routine maintenance funds allocated for the facility and shall be part
of the yearly budget.

existing and future wastewater of the Development to be accepted and discharged into said governmental
system, and shall convey or transfer as much of the Disposal System and such necessary easements as the
governmental unit may require as condition of accepting the Development's wastewater.
8. Recognizing that it would be contrary to the public interest and to the public health, safety and welfare for
the Association to enter into voluntary dissolution without having made adequate provision for the
continued proper maintenance, repair and operation of its Disposal System, the DEVELOPER shall provide
in the Association Bylaws that the Association shall not enter into voluntary dissolution without first having
transferred its said system and facilities to some person, corporation or other entity acceptable to and
approved by the COMMISSION by the issuance of a permit.
9. The agreements set forth in numbered paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 above shall be conditions of any
permit issued by the COMMISSION to the DEVELOPER for the construction, maintenance, repair and
operation of the Disposal System.

filed and in the offices of the Secretary of State of North Carolina with the Articles of Incorporation of the
