The receiving wastewater treatment plant will be the M'Kean-Moffit SSWWTF (NPDES NC 0023973). In order to receive sewer from CFPUA, any private system, must have its design approved by the Authority and will require a copy of the permit application, State permit, and Engineer's certification. Private systems must construct services to Authority specifications and install sewer guards at each manhole including grease traps. Any private pump station's top elevation must be constructed at two (2) feet above the routed 100-year storm elevation or FIRM maps 100-year flood, whichever Is higher. All private systems must be upgraded to the Authority specifications, at no cost to the Authority, if in the future It is desired to convey the system to the Authority. Private systems must employ or contract with a system operator on a 24 hour / 7-day basis and provide names and contact numbers to the Authority. Maintenance in private systems is the responsibility of the ownerloperator; private system location is determined as designated on certification. If the sewer is a public system, the Authority must approve the design and sign the State permit application. Any permits, public encroachments, and/or easements outside the development parcels) must be obtained by the developer and the agreements) recorded prior to the required pre -construction meeting. The Authority will not participate financially in a project if an agreement is not mutually signed prior to the pre -construction meeting. Please see the attached public utility easement document. All offsite easements must be approved, acquired and recorded prior to the pre -construction meeting. No buildings, structures, ponds, obstructions, tonac:, hcims, or trees, except those required by any governmental ordinance, statute or regulation, shall be placed, constructed or situated within the rights -of - way and the easements, whether existing or to be granted. The only exception is a security fence (perpendicular to the main line, adjacent to a right-of-way, not applicable to individual lots) with removable paneling may be granted but must be submitted for approval on a case by case basis, and in any event a "Hold Harmless" agreement must be executed or incorporated into the conveyance. All easements must be a minimum of 30 feet in width unless otherwise approved by the Authority. Whether permitted as a public or private sewer system, the Authority must always be notified 48 hours prior to construction. The material used to connect to the system must be per Authority technical specifications and the work must be performed by a licensed utility contractor and approved by the Authority. 235 Government Center Drive, Wilmington, NC 28403 t: 910-332-6560 f: 910-332-6353 www.cfpua_org RE: Oleander Commons CFPUA File #314606.014 (Public Sewer Main Extension) All additions to any Authority system will be documented by asbuilt drawings and per Authority specifications. Information regarding additions shall be submitted to the Authority and shall include mylars and a CD disk in AutoCAD format per CFPUA Technical Specifications before final inspection, approval, and activation. Final acceptance of work is at the sole discretion of the Authority. The owner is responsible to make all directed repairs at no cost to the Authority prior to activating the system. All applicable fees and costs associated in connection with the Authority's sewer system must be paid prior to or at time of application for service. Failure to pay all applicable fees and costs per the Authority's Regulations and Ordinances may result in holds being placed on Certificate of Occupancy and/or System Activation. The Authority's one (1) year warranty will start from the date the system conveyance is recorded. Conveyance of the Public Utilities occurs upon approval of the certification from the Division of Water Quality. Per NCDENR, any constructed system will not be operated or otherwise activated until the Engineer's and Applicant's Certifications have been submitted to and approved by NCDENR Division of Water Quality. The following are required (to be provided by the developer) for the Authority to approve certification: 1. The developer shall provide all monetary values of the Public utilities and descriptions on the attached standard template that will become the Authority's upon final approval by the State. 2. The developer shall provide all lien waivers/release of liens and an affidavit that there are no other liens against any infrastructure being certified. 3. The developer shall provide as-butlts to the Authority Specifications. 4. The developer provides all public utility easements per the attached document. Any taps which may be deemed necessary to be Installed, relocated, or abandoned will be the responsibility of the Developer or owner at no cost to the Authority, in accordance with the Authority specifications and approval. The Authority's inspector will perform all required cleanout inspections prior to obtaining any Certificate of Occupancy Unauthorized operation of CFPUA owned valves, hydrants, and other appurtenances, is grounds for civil penalty assessment and/or other enforcement actions. This is not a commitment of capacity. It only indicates present availability. System capacity will change as new connections are made, potentially impacting your ability to connect some or all of your proposed development into the Authority's system. Capacity is allocated by the Authority at the time the NC Division of Water Quality Flow Tracking System evaluation is signed.
