Re: Fast Track Sewer Extension Application
McGee's Crossroads Sewer Upgrade Phase 2B (CS370560-16)
Johnston County, North Carolina
Dear Sir or Madam:
NC Dept "Environmental QI,LjijIv
AUG 14 2018
Raleigh Regional Office
Please find enclosed the Fast Track Sewer System Application, Flow Tacking/Acceptance for Sewer
Extension Applications, and Location Map for the above referenced project. The proposed project consists
of the construction of 8,239 LF of 27" gravity sewer line that will connect to the proposed Middle Creek
Regional Pump Station (permitted as a separate project).
Johnston County has experienced dramatic increase in residential and commercial growth especially in
areas within the County's sewer service area. Current flow within the existing force main serving the
McGee's Crossroads sewer area is close to exceeding the maximum allowable pressure. This project is
required to provide additional capacity, relieve the flow on an existing force main, and construct a regional
pump station (as a separate project) to meet current and future sewer demands. The above reference phase
proposes a gravity sewer main parallel to Middle Creek to the proposed regional pump station.
Construction of this sewer main will replace two pump stations and ultimately a third pump station at full
build -out Since this a new sewer main, there will be no existing flow that will require bypass during the
construction of the project.
The future projected in the gravity sewer line is estimated as follows:
Future ADF w/o equalization: 1,175 GPM Peak Hour: 2,937.5 GPM
Future ADF w/ equalization: 1,304 GPM Peak Hour: 3,260 GPM
Please let me know if you need additional information.

I1I. Certification Statement:
I Chandra C. Coats, P.E. certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to 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 plus all
attached planning assessment addendums for which I am the responsible party. Signature of this
form indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.
