The latitude and longitude of 35°01'41'N, 77°00'35"W. The project is within a drainage basin which drains to the Neuse River. The receiving stream is the Brice Creek (C;Sw, NSW). Per the NRCS Soil Survey of Craven County the soil across the site consists of Grantham silt loam (Gr) and Rains fine sandy loam (Ra), while the ground cover consists of fair woodlands. Carolina Commercial Contractors, LLC desires to install a gravity sewer system to serve a �j commercial assisted living complex. It is proposed that wastewater from the development, calculated to be 9,600 GPD, be ultimately collected and carried to the City of New Bern WWTF and �v downstream pump station. Per town request, all the flow is placed on the private application with the public sewer application having zero flow. This project is permitted through NCDEQ by existing permit WQ0041748. The permit will need to be odified since the linear feet listed on the permit (845 LF of 8'� mis not within the 10% allowance shown on the as-builts (509 LF). We are requesting the modified permit to allow for 509 LF of 8" private gravity sewer.

Any wastewater flow made 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 Permlttee to appropriate enforcement actions. A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed, and the supporting documents are provided as applicable. Supporting documentation shall include the following: One copy of the project construction record drawings (plan & profile views of sewer lines & 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. 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 but not limited to pipe length changes of 10% or Page 6 of 7 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 discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or repair prior to certification & activation. [15A NCAC 02T .0116] 8. 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 priorto completing and submitting the construction certification. [ 15A NCAC 02T.0105(n)] 9. A copy of the individual permit and construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of the wastewater collection facilities. [15A NCAC 02T .0116] 10.
