I David A. Hollis 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 certifies that the receiving
collection system or treatment works has adequate capacity to transport and treat the proposed new

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available Capacity is <
0.
Pump Station (Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
45 % and 0.242 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
LS#18 ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
0.042 (AVE) MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
N/A is in design or under construction with
planned completion in N/A ; and/or
d. The following applies:
The design ADF of 0.537 MGD with the current ADF of 0.317 resulting in an available wet
capacity of 0.22 with the projected rate of activation of 0.042 MGD. It is expected at
the average rate of activation that LS#18 would reach capacity in 7 years. The Town will
monitor available capactiy and provide capacity as needed. By redirecting the flow to the
16" forcemain to LS#10.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to allow
this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in the system
infrastructure.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste disposal
system.

RE: [External] RE: BF #18 app
Dean,
We were recommending to re -permit the affected LS basins as the flow increases to require activation of the additional
FM options. We found this to be prudent with the additional future growth as the planned increase in flow from other
future station(s) south of the existing piping (such as the recently permitted WQ0040624-2/5/2019) would need to be
addressed and modifications to the pumps (adding the third pump at LS#18) or further revisions to the FMs (LS#33)
which currently utilize our recommended 10" routing. This will require further vetting during low flow startup period to
optimize the system efficiency from the stand point of cycle/odor and require modifications of LS#10 firm capacity as
the flows increase.
No; the model calculated 1282GPM based on existing pump's curve (non -worn impellers) at LS#18 and which was
supported by a recent drawdown. Yes; utilizing one of the existing 10" and both the new 10" and 16" from the crossing
at Hwy 17 to LS#10 wet well — where the LS flows (LS#18, LS#33 and future) would merge and route to LS#10.
The model's flow results for the pumps at LS#18 did not obtain the 1500gpm flows for the reroute to LS#10. It does not
appear these pumps were ever capable of the 1500GPM pumping rate for the design system or the rerouted/modified
system.
Let me know if you have additional questions.

Should we permit it as a Phase 1 and Phase 2 capacity level?
I would assume the 1282-gpm rate would be using both force mains, but would it need different pumps or impellers?
You say it can't pump at 1500-gpm with the current pumps, is that based on wear & it could with new impellers, etc or is
it a bad design?

The goal of the Fast Track sewer permit program is to issue a permit in no more than 30 business days from receipt of a complete application and if
no additional information has to be requested upon full review. Please use the Department's Permit Application Tracker to determine the official
application receipt date to allow you to estimate a date for issuance and find the reviewer's name. Once issued, the record stays on the site for 30
days.
For previously issued sewer permit info or to check on sewer certification receipt status, please use the Division's Sewer Extension Permit
Tracker. Using the Issue Date on top of the Engineer Certification Form is best way to ensure getting what you want especially for multi -version
permits; using today's date only gives info on the latest permit version. Confirmation using this method will replace letters and emoils; it is
recommended that confirmation be printed and/arsaved.

Yes, on the flow reduction utilizing one 10" to LS#10.
In orderto keep the flow moving at the current ADF we proposed to use 1 of the existing 10" pipes and the new 10"
pipe to LS#10. As the flow may increase then TOL can activate the other existing 10" and the new 16" and eventually
route through both 10" and the new 10" and 16". The maximum flow rate from LS#18 is expected to be
1282GPM@152FT, based on the model. In any event, the current permitted firm capacity of LS#18 1500GPM is not
achievable with the existing pumps.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Jim,
So are we reducing the capacity of the Main PS from 1500-glom to 932-gpm? Is this using one or both of the original 10-
inch force mains?
Thanks
