MEMORANDUM
TO Ken Schuster
FROM Randy Jones
SUBJECT Application No. WQ0019210
Staff Report Memorandum
Charter Development Company
Ellis Campus 2 Charter School
Wastewater Pump and Haul
Durham County
Attached is the draft permit for the charter school to be located in Immanuel Baptist Church in
Durham County. Please recall that DOT has committed to run sewer to this church, but that they
recently decided to changgdtheir planned route to save money; however, this change will delay
the construction and operation of the sewer line, making the reissuance of the P&H permit necessary.
Guidance from Tommy Stevens indicated that it is appropriate to reissue this permit.
The P&H'ed wastewater will be treated in the North Durham Water Reclamation Facility. I have
set the permit to expire on 6/30/01.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
