meet 15A NCAC 2T; the Division of Water Quality's (Division) Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria
adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; and the Division's Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track

documentation from the parties involved, and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. The approval of this request
shall be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved.

The Permittee shall report by telephone to a water quality staff member at the Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone number
910-433-3300, as soon as possible, but in no case more than 24 hours or on the next working day, following the occurrence or
first knowledge of the occurrence of either of the following:
a. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that renders the facility incapable of adequate wastewater
transport, such as mechanical or electrical failures of pumps, line blockage or breakage, etc.; or
b. Any SSO and/or spill over 1,000 gallons; or
c. Any SSO and/or spill, regardless of volume, that reaches surface water
Voice mail messages or faxed information is permissible, but this shall not be considered as the initial verbal report. Overflows

knowledge of the occurrence. This report must outline the actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem
does not recur. Part II of Form CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved form) can also be completed to show that the
SSO was beyond control.
6. Construction of the gravity sewers, pump stations, and force mains shall be scheduled so as not to interrupt service by the
existing utilities nor result in an overflow or bypass discharge of wastewater to the surface waters of the State.
7. Per 15A NCAC 2T.0116, upon completion of construction and prior to operation of these permitted facilities, the completed
Engineering Certification form attached to this permit shall be submitted with the required supporting documents to the
address provided on the form. A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents
are provided as applicable. Any wastewater flow made tributary to the wastewater collection system extension prior to
completion of this Engineer's Certification shall be considered a violation of the permit and shall subject the Permittee to
appropriate enforcement actions.
If the permit is issued to a private entity with an Operational Agreement, then a copy of the Articles of Incorporation,
Declarations/Covenants/Restrictions, and Bylaws that have been appropriately filed with the applicable County's Register of
Deeds office shall be submitted with the certification.
A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are provided as applicable.
Supporting documentation shall include the following:
a. One copy of the project construction record drawings (plan & profile views of sewer lines & force mains) of the wastewater
collection system extension. Final record drawings should be clear on the plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and

are defined as the design drawings that are marked up or annotated with after construction information and show required
buffers, separation distances, material changes, etc. '
b. One copy of the supporting pump station design calculations (selected pumps, system curve, operating point, buoyancy
calculations, available storage if portable generator(s) or storage greater than longest past three year outage reliability
option selected) for any pump stations permitted as part of this project.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria
should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting in non-compliance with this
permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased flow, pump station design capacity design increases of 5%
or greater, and increases in the number/type of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested
modifications or variances to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case -by -case basis and each on its own merit.
Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be requested and approved during the permitting process
prior to construction. After -construction requests are discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring
replacement or repair prior to certification & activation.
8. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of the wastewater collection
facilities.
9. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the Division's Gravity Sewer Design
Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump
Station and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an

construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities, and/or referral of the North Carolina -licensed
Professional Engineer to the licensing board.
10. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions,
the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be required by this Division, such as the
construction of additional or replacement facilities.
11. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes, rules, regulations, or
ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (local, state and federal) which have jurisdiction, including but
not limited to applicable river buffer rules in 15A NCAC 2B .0200, erosion and sedimentation control requirements in 15A NCAC
