Ff_k_� RECEIVED SUBJECT Application No. WQ0020629 WATER rXIALITYSECTM Staff Report Memorandum A6 1 L 6u] East --West Partners Management Co., Inc. Cary park Pump Station Norl,Dwhup Amift Wastewater Pump and Haul Wake County Attached is a draft P&H permit to serve East-West Partners Management Co., Inc. Cary Glen Boulevard in Cary Park Subdivision is being realigned, thus making it necessary to abandon approximately 800 Iinear feet of force main and install approximately 800 linear feet of force main along the realigned road. The engineer believes that it will be necessary to shut down the Cary Park pump station for a period of only 5-6 hours. During this time, wastewater will be allowed to back into the pump station wet well and gravity sewers. The P&H permit will be used only if it becomes necessary to do so. I have set the draft P&H permit to expire on 11/30/01, but it seems that if good weather holds, this activity will be completed much sooner. Please let me know if you have any questions. file: h:p&h\wg20629.me
