NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the benefits to be derived by each of the parties hereto, the COMMISSION and DEVELOPER do hereby mutually agree as follows: 1. The DEVELOPER shall construct the Disposal System in accordance with the permit and plans and specifications hereafter issued and approved by the COMMISSION, and shall thereafter properly operate and maintain such systems and facilities in accordance with applicable permit provisions and law, 2. The DEVELOPER shall not transfer ownership and/or control of the Disposal System to the Association until construction has been completed in accordance with the permit and approved plans, and the staff of the Division of Water Quality has inspected and approved of the facilities. In order to change the name of the permit holder, the DEVELOPER must request that the permit be reissued to the Association. The request must include a copy of the Association Bylaws and Declaration. 3. The DEVELOPER shall not transfer, convey, assign or otherwise relinquish or release its responsibility for the operation and maintenance of its Disposal System until a permit has been reissued to the DEVELOPER!s successor. FORM: DEV 09-06 Page 1 of 2 JPER shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System and .,vices thereto are part of the common elements and shall thereafter be properly maintained and -4d in conformity with law and the provisions of the permit for construction, operation, repair, and antenance of the system and facilities. The Declaration and Bylaws shall identify the entire wastewater 'treatment, collection and disposal system as a common element, which will receive the highest priority for ar Federal, State, and local taxes and insurance. expenditures by the Association except f 5, The DEVELOPER shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System will be maintained out of the common expenses. In order to assure that there shall be funds readily available to repair, maintain or construct the Disposal System, beyond the routine operation and maintenance expenses, the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide that a fund be created out of the common expenses. Such fund shall be separate from the routine maintenance funds allocated for the facility and shall be part of the yearly budget. 6. In the event the common expense allocation and separate fund are not adequate for the construction, repair, and maintenance of the Disposal System, the Declaration and Association Bylaws shall provide for special assessments to cover such necessary costs. There shall be no limit on the amount of such assessments, and the Declaration and Bylaws shall provide that such special assessments can be made as necessary at any time. 7. If a wastewater collection system and wastewater treatment and/or disposal facility provided by any city, town, village, county, water and sewer authorities, or other unit of government shall hereinafter become available to serve the Development, the DEVELOPER shall take such action as is necessary to cause the existing and future wastewater of the Development to be accepted and discharged into said governmental system, and shall convey or transfer as much of the Disposal System and such necessary easements as the governmental unit may require as condition of accepting the Development's wastewater. 8. Recognizing that it would be contrary to the public interest and to the public health, safety and welfare for the Association to enter into voluntary dissolution without having made adequate provision for the continued proper maintenance, repair and operation of its Disposal System, the DEVELOPER shall provide in the Association Bylaws that the Association shall not enter into voluntary dissolution without first having transferred its said system and facilities to some person, corporation or other entity acceptable to and approved by the COMMISSION by the issuance of a permit. 9. The agreements set forth in numbered paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 above shall be conditions of any permit issued by the COMMISSION to the DEVELOPER for the construction, maintenance, repair and operation of the Disposal System. 10.

If the project is a modification to an existing permit, be sure to enter t plication into BIMS as a permit modification (i.e. "renew/modify application" and not "create new project"). BIMS will pull the previous signing official and affiliations information. Please go through all the tabs and ensure the information is correct for the current project. 7 Applicant a public entity (e.g. county, town, sanitary district)? Applicant a private entity? Own (i.e. lease) units, lots, parcels, etc? 1 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) ../ Sell units, lots, parcels, etc? Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity? 2H .0205(d)(2) s Required if the applicant is a public utility. In lieu of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, they may submit written approval from the North Carolina Utilities Commission's Public Staff that states that the utility is allowed to provide utility service in the subject project area. Note that the project name on the application and on the CPCN must match. Contact the NCUC Public Staff if questions arise. This is NOT REQUIRED for a municipality or county! Examples of companies that would provide a CPCN are Heater Utilities or Carolina Water Service, etc. O***OR******* perational Agreement? 2H .0205(d)(2 ♦ Operational Agreements are only required if the applicant is not a public entity (i.e. Town, County, etc.) or public utility as designated by the North Carolina Utilities Commission AND the lots being served by the collection system are to be sold to individual owners. 1 ,\ ♦ If the applicant is a developer, they must fill out the DEVELOPER ��/ 0 Operational Agreement (FORM: DEV 02/03) A developer maybe responsible for the system for an interim period until the homeowners 06�'( association is.formed, at which time a Permit Name/Ownership Change � request (FORM: PNOCF 06/00) will be needed to transfer the permit to 1 the HOA. c ♦ If the applicant is a homeowners' association (HOA), they must fill out the ASSOCIATION Operational Agreement (FORM: HOA 02/03 The HOA must be registered with the Secretary of State's office and must provide a copy of the Associations' Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation. These documents should be reviewed to ensure that all applicable language regarding the collection system is included as is required by the Operational Agreement. ♦ The Operational Agreement should be attached to the permit and incorporated into the language of the permit. Please note that Operational Agreement language should not be altered without approval from the Attorney General's Office. Operational Agreements are available at http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/PERCS/ from the collection system applications page. 1=. Approval of flow to receiving sewers and WWTF? (i.e. P4 procedure, but now in-house!) ♦ Ensure that the receiving sewers and WWTF have adequate capacity available to accept the flow volume that is being requested, and that the WWTF has been in compliance with their treatment and disposal permit. Flow acceptance letter(s) from the owner of the WWTF and owner of any intermediate sewers (if different from WWTF owner and applicant)? 2H .0205(d)(3)(C) ♦ Required only if the applicant and the owner of the WWTF/intermediate sewers are not the same entity. ♦ Project specific flow acceptance letters are required. Ensure that the following items appear in the flow acceptance letter: applicant's name, project name, amount of wastewater flow accepted, date that the flow acceptance was granted, expiration date of the acceptance, and name/permit number of the receiving WWTF. Do not accept a flow acceptance letter that was issued more than one year- prior to the receipt of the package. ♦ Ensure that the owner accepted the entire volume of flow listed in application. 2 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) Main Problems Noted: A flow acceptance letter is provided by the receiving WWTP owner but not the downstream sewer owner, which both are different from the applicant. 'Example, private developer in Knightdale. Both Knightdale and Raleigh would need to provide a flow acceptance letter as Knightdale will transport the wastewater and Raleigh will treat the wastewater. ✓Wastewater industrial or omestic i nature? ♦ Most projects will b or w water that is domestic in nature, however, if Item B.6 indicates that the wastewater is industrial in nature, notify the Regional Office Pretreatment Coordinator or the WQ Pretreatment Unit Central Office to determine if a pretreatment permit is needed or if a program already in place and compliant. Flow volume calculated correctly? 2H .0219(/) ♦ Ensure that the daily design flow in the application is based on the guidance provided in the regulations or existing flow, and that the explanation as to how this volume was determined is very specific (i.e., 22 three -bedroom homes, 50,000 s.f. of retail space, 18 employees, etc). This information will be included in the description of the system in the permit. Our regs say 120 gpd/bedroom for residential. Note that for one -bedroom the minimum they can use is 240 gpd. ♦ If daily design flow is not based on regulations, ensure that the applicant has an approved flow reduction of daily design flow rate on file with the Division. A list of approved flow reductions may be obtained from the DWQ Intranet or by contacting the PERCS. Flow reduction requests are to be reviewed by the central office, and must be reviewed and approved before the application is accepted by the regional office for review. ♦ On occasion, there may be an instance where supporting documentation is submitted with the application for a specific facility. Contact PERCS to determine a course of action. ♦ Ensure that the flows shown on the application match up to what is shown on the plans (if available for review). For example, if the application states that 100 lots are to be developed, ensure that there are 100 lots, and not 150 lots, shown on the plans. Plans are only required for review if the applicant is requesting a variance to the MDC or the .0200's. ♦ Do not allocate "future" wastewater flows (i.e., that based on speculative development). These would be permitted in future wastewater collection system extensions. Although, we do allocate "unknown" flows on a per acre basis for industrial/commercial park applications. Generally, the Division has accepted between 900 gpd/acre —1500 gpd/acre. Let the engineer support his calculation. y' Adequate information provided regarding the proposed gravity sewer and/or force main (if applicable)?

Drafting a Permit ♦ In order to be consistent, use the most current version of the Fast -Track permit shell. This permit shell contains specific language with respect to the Minimum Design Criteria, regulations, and collection system permitting. The PERCS will notify you of any changes to this permit shell. ♦ Be specific with respect the system description and information. Indicate the flow, what the project will be serving, length and size of gravity sewer lines and force mains, etc. For projects involving pump stations, the size of the pump stations, as well as the reliability option and any additional info (telemetry, odor control system, etc) should be included. A sample permit is on the DWQ Intranet. ♦ Add or remove any special conditions as neces§_g . Please call attention to any non-standard permit conditions in the cover letter of the permit and include the permit condition where necessary. See the Example Special Conditions document. ♦ If the project is a modification, don't forget to include the system description from the previous permit and void the previous permit in the language! Some of these can be tricky so feel free to run the drafted permit through PERCS first before issuance. . ♦ It is preferable if Fast -Tracks are saved electronically by permit number under issued year and month. 4 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) ..eying a Project ♦ If the Reviewer/Supervisor determines that an application package should be denied because it can not meet NC Statutes, rules or regulations, then a denial letter should be drafted. Special attention should be paid to the statutory deadline for permitting. If it is thought that a project might be denied, it is important to review it and draft the denial letter as soon as possible._ There must be time allowed for the denial letter to be sent up to the [Arector and signed prior to the statutory date. ♦ The Reviewer should use the Application Denial Letter template to prepare a denial package for the Supervisor's review and submittal to the Director for signature. The letter should not be dated, but instead will be dated after the Director signs it. A memo to the Director should be attached to the top of the denial package summarizing the reasons for denial. This package must be singed off on by the reviewer, supervisor, Section Chief, and Director. Distribute the letter as directed in "Issuing a Permit" below. Issuing a Permit ♦ Permits should be signed only by those delegated to sign for the Director. ♦ Permits should be distributed as follows (include the signed Operational Agreement with the permit and all distribution copies if applicable!): ✓ Original to the Permittee ✓ Copy to the consulting engineer ✓ Copy to the county health department ✓ Copy to the Mecklenburg County Department of Environmental Protection for all projects located in Mecklenburg County ✓ Copy(ies) to the owner of the WWTF and owner of the downstream sewers (if different than the Permittee) ✓ Electronic Copy and Hard Copy to the PERCS for our files ✓ Copy to Central Files (attach application package and any supporting documents with a staple — do not include any plans unless they are small and can be folded up into an 8.5" x 11" sheet) ✓ Save an electronic version named WQOOXXXXX.doc in a folder on your office shared drive or hard drive. Try to keep your drafts and issued files separate. SEND ELECTRONIC COPIES TO PERCS on a frequent basis — weekly or monthly! Permit Corrections ♦ If a permit has been issued but an error discovered MADE BY US internally or by the Permittee or their engineer, a permit correction is necessary. ♦ Pull the original permit and make the corrections — do not change issue dates or enter a new application in BIMS — resave the permit ♦ Prepare the permit correction cover letter modifying as applicable — the corrections need to be distributed to the same people/agencies who received the orginal permit ♦ Print the corrected permit and permit correction letter — sign if needed ♦ Maintain Permit in BIMS — add permit corrected event date and comments as to what was corrected ♦ Copy and distribute The Certification ♦ Final engineering certifications will be submitted back to your office when the project is complete. These should be.date stamped (the certification page, record drawings and calculations, if applicable) ♦ Construction, Grants & Loans (CGL) may request and audit some of these certifications ♦ Regardless of whether the region or CGL reviews a certification, the receipt date must be logged into BIMS. Perform the following: Maintain Permit, Enter Permit No., Go to Events Tab, Add Event, Select Engineering/Tech Specialist Certification Received, Enter Receipt Date ♦ If the certification sheet is marked partial — put partial in the event comment field. ♦ If the certification seems incomplete — missing plans or calculations or no PE seal — note incomplete in the comment field. Send an incomplete certification letter. The certification page in the permit explains exactly what the engineer is to provide. ♦ If the certification is provided to CGL — maintain the engineer certification received event and put "to CGL for review on DATE" in the event engineer certification received comment field. 5 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) ♦ If the region wishes to perform a detailed review — look for items not meeting the minimum design criteria or outside of the permit. For instance, minimum cover; slope; minimum separation distances; line size changes; length; reroutes; additional lots than permitted; pump station alarms; pump cycle times; no indication of record drawing (as-builts) on plans; no PE seal or note about record drawings (land surveyor seals are not appropriate). A certification checklist is being developed. ♦ Regardless of review, certifications need to be processed as this closes out the permit. Follow the processing engineering certifications guidance document. .

BIMS•will pull the previous signing official and affiliations information. Please go through all the tabs and ensure the information is correct for the current project. Applicant a public entity (e.g. county, town, sanitary district)? 144Vpplicant a private entity? Own (i.e. lease) units, lots, parcels, etc? 1 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) Sell units, lots, parcels, etc? Certificate of Public Conven\dNeand Necessity? 2H .0205(d)(2) ♦ Required if the applicanublic utility. In lieu of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necey may submit written approval from the North Carolina Utilities Css� n's Public Staff that states that the utility is allowed to provide utilitye in he subject project area. Note that the project name on the appn an n the CPCN must match. Contact the NCUC Public Staff if quarise. This is NOT REQUIRED for a municipality or county! les of c panies that would provide a CPCN are Heater Utilities or CWater Se ice, etc. ******OR******* Operational Agreement? 2H(d)(2 ♦ Operational Agreements are only required if th applicant is not a public entity (i.e. Town, County, etc.) or public utility as Xesignated by the North Carolina Utilities Commission AND the lots being 1Xrved by the collection system are to be sold to individual owners. ♦ If the applicant is a developer, they must fill out thet EVELOPER Operational Agreement (FORM: DEV 02/03). A d ve!oper may be responsible for the system for an interim pe/dto ntil the homeowners association is formed, at which time a Perme/Ownership Change request (FORM: PNOCF 06/00) will be neetransfer the permit to the HOA. ♦ If the applicant is a homeowners' asso Cation (HOA), they must fill out the ASSOCIATION Operational Agre ment (FORM: HOA 02/03 The HOA must be registered with the S retary of State's office and must provide a copy of the Association Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation. These documents should be revO wed to ensure that all applicable language regarding the collect n system is included as is required by the Operational Agreement. ♦ The Operational Agreement gKould be attached to the permit and incorporated into the langu a of the permit. Please note that Operational Agreement language sho d not be altered without approval from the Attorney General's Offic . Operational Agreements are available at htt://h2o.enr.state.nc. /PERCS/ from the collection system applications page. Approval of flow to receiving sewers and WWTF? (i.e. P4 procedure, but now in-house!) ♦ Ensure that the receiving sewers and WWTF have adequate capacity available to accept the flow volume that is being requested, and that the WWTF has been in compliance with their treatment and disposal permit. L_ Flow acceptance letter(s) from the owner of the WWTF and owner of any intermediate sewers (if different from WWTF owner and applicant)? 2H .0205(d)(3)(C) Required only if the applicant and the owner of the WWTF/intermediate sewers are not the same entity. ♦ Project specific flow acceptance letters are required. ♦ Ensure that the following items appear in the flow acceptance letter: applicant's name, project name, amount of wastewater flow accepted, date that the flow acceptance was granted, expiration date of the acceptance, and name/permit number of the receiving WWTF. Do not accept a flow acceptance letter that was issued more than one year prior to the receipt of the package. ♦i Ensure that the owner accepted the entire volume of flow listed in application. 2 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) Main Problems Noted: A flow acceptance letter is provided by the receiving WWTP owner but not the downstream sewer owner, which both are different from the applicant. Example, private developer in Knightdale. Both Knightdale and Raleigh would need to provide a flow acceptance letter as Knightdale will transport astewater and Raleigh will treat the wastewater. Wastewater industria or domestic in n ure? ♦ Most projects will e for wa ter that is domestic in nature; however, if Item B.6 indicates that the wastewater is industrial in nature, notify the Regional Office Pretreatment Coordinator or the WQ Pretreatment Unit Central Office to determine if a pretreatment permit is needed or if a program already in place and compliant. Flow volume calculated correctly? 2H .0299(I) ♦ Ensure that the daily design flow in the application is based on the guidance provided in the regulations or existing flow, and that the explanation as to how this volume was determined is very specific (i.e., 22 three -bedroom homes, 50,000 s.f. of retail space, 18 employees, etc). This information will be included in the description of the system in the permit. Our regs say �— 120 gpd/bedroom for residential. Note that for one -bedroom the minimum they can use is -r 240 gpd. ♦ If daily design flow is not based on regulations, ensure that the applicant has an approved flow, reduction of daily design flow rate on file with the Division. A list of approved flow reductions may be obtained from the DWQ Intranet or by contacting the PERCS. Flow �` reduction requests are to be reviewed by the central office, and must be reviewed and approved before the application is accepted by the regional office for review. �� O8 ��---♦ On occasion, there maybe an instance where supporting documentation is submitted with the application for a specific facility. Contact PERCS to determine a course of action. ♦ Ensure that the flows shown on the application match up to what is shown on the plans (if available for review). For example, if the application states that 100 lots are to be developed, ensure that there are 100 lots, and not 150 lots, shown on the plans." Plans are only required for review if the applicant is requesting a variance to the MDC or the .0200's. ♦ Do not allocate "future" wastewater flows (i.e., that based on speculative development). These would be permitted in future wastewater collection system extensions. Although, we do allocate "unknown" flows on a per acre basis for industrial/commercial park applications. Generally, the Division has accepted between 900 gpd/acre —1500 gpd/acre. Let the engineer support his calculation. ,,/V�.Adequate information provided regarding the proposed gravity sewer and/or force main (if applicable)? Note 1: An Environmental Assessment may be required if there are 3 miles of gravity sewer over 18-inches in diameter (15A NCAC'1C .0100). Environmental Assessment projects can NOT go Fast -Track! Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is C",�specified and no variance requested Adequate information provided regarding the proposed pump station(s) (if applicable)? Note: An Environmental Assessment may be required if the pump station(s) have a firm capacity of 1,750 GPM or greater (15A NCAC 1 C .0100). If there are any questions about whether an EA may be required, discuss with your supervisor or contact Alex Marks of the Planning Branch's Local Government Assistance Unit. ♦ Power reliability at the pump station provided in accordance with Section 5.04 of the Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains document (i.e. dual line feed, portable generator w/telemetry, permanent generator with automatic transfer switch, wet well storage if near Class C waters)? Note 1: Section C of the FTA has to be completed and show a Class C down slope water in order to use wet well storage as a reliability option. Include the special condition in the permit. You will need to ask for storage calculations and the power outage data. Note 2: Ensure telemetry is specified if a portable generator is called out. Check with the engineer if unsure. Note 3: Ensure an automatic transfer switch (ATS) is specified if a permanent (standby) generator is specified. _ Check with the engineer if unsure. Main Problems Noted: Failure to specify appropriate or applicable power reliability option 3 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) Project designed in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0200, the Gravity Sewer Minimu Criteria and the Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations ant, Force Mains document (as applicable)? NO will be checked in Item B(12) of the FTA. If NO, forward one copy of the supporting documents to the Central Office for review, indicating the permit number, owner and project name. The Central Office will review the variance request and if approvable, specific language regarding the variance will be forwarded to the Regional Office reviewer to incorporate into the permit. A copy of the variance letter provided by the central office should be kept with the application file. If you catch something in the application or supporting documents that is not in accordance with our regs or MDC, send an additional information request. Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is specified and no variance requested; supporting documents show slope issues... SECTI C — Watershed Classification or topographic map submitted? Watershed classification required? If YES, you are advised to "spot-check" the classification(s). If NO, ensure the applicant/engineer has indicated why one is not required. BOTH BOXES IN SECTION C MUST BE CHECKED TO NOT PROVIDE A CLASSIFICATION! SECTPON D —Applicant Certifications �--'Signing Official's signature? 2H .0206(b) ♦ Ensure that the applicant's signature is the same person as that listed as the applicant's signing official on Page 1 of the application form. PE stamped, signed, and dated application, plans, specifications, and calculations (if applicable)? 2H .0205(d)(1)(A)(iii) ♦ Ensure that the same engineer has signed, sealed, and dated the application and all the items, with the exception of items designed by specialty disciplines (i.e., architectural, structural, plumbing, and electrical plans). If not, an explanation and/or authorization is required. Adequate information provided for the engineer/engineering firm? i. 1__1rPE with active license in North Carolina? 2H .0205(d)(1)(A)(iii) or 2H .0203(28) ♦ Ensure that ALL pertinent P.E's have active licenses by checking the NC Professional Engineer's Board web site (www.ncbels.org the PE number must be six digits, use leading 0 when needed). ♦ If the PE seal number does not show up on the web site database, call the PE Board for verification (919) 881-2293. Drafting a Permit ♦ In order to be consistent, use the most current version of the Fast -Track permit shell. This permit shell contains specific language with respect to the Minimum Design Criteria, regulations, and collection system permitting. The PERCS will notify you of any changes to. this permit shell. ♦ Be specific with respect the system description and information. Indicate the flow, what the project will be serving, length and size of gravity sewer lines and force mains, etc. For projects involving pump stations, the size of the pump stations, as well as the reliability option and any additional info (telemetry, odor control system, etc) should be included. A sample permit is on the DWQ Intranet. ♦ Add or remove any special conditions as necessary_ Please call attention to any non-standard permit conditions in the cover letter of the permit and include the permit condition where necessary. See the Example Special Conditions document. ♦ If the project is a modification, don't forget to include the system description from the previous permit and void the previous permit in the language! Some of these can be tricky so feel free to run the drafted permit through PERCS first before issuance. ♦ It is preferable if Fast -Tracks are saved electronically by permit number under issued year and month. 4 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) .g"a Project If the Reviewer/Supervisor determines that an application package should be denied because it can not meet NC Statutes, rules or regulations, then a denial letter should be drafted. Special attention should be paid to the statutory deadline for permitting. If it is thought that a project might be denied, it is important to review it and draft the denial letter as soon as possible. There must be time allowed for the denial letter to be sent up to the DSrector and signed prior to the statutory date. ♦ The Reviewer should use the Application Denial Letter template to prepare a denial package for the Supervisor's review and submittal to the Director for signature. The letter should not be dated, but instead will be dated after the Director signs it. A memo to the Director should be attached to the top of the denial package summarizing the reasons for denial. This package must be singed off on by the reviewer, supervisor, Section Chief, and Director. Distribute the letter as directed in "Issuing a Permit" below. Issuing a Permit o Permits should be signed only by those delegated to sign for the Director. ♦ Permits should be distributed as follows (include the signed Operational Agreement with the permit and all distribution copies if applicable!): ✓ Original to the Permittee ✓ Copy to the consulting engineer ✓ Copy to the county health department ✓ Copy to the Mecklenburg County Department of Environmental Protection for all projects located in Mecklenburg County Copy(ies) to the owner of the WWTF and owner of the downstream sewers (if different than the Permittee) ✓ Electronic Copy and Hard Copy to the PERCS for our files ✓ Copy to Central Files (attach application package and any supporting documents with a staple — do not include any plans unless they are small and can be folded up into an 8.5" x 11" sheet) ✓ Save an electronic version named WQOOXXXXX.doc in a folder on your office shared drive or hard drive. Try to keep your drafts and issued files separate. SEND ELECTRONIC COPIES TO PERCS on a frequent basis - weekly or monthly! Permit Corrections ♦ If a permit has been issued but an error discovered MADE BY US internally or by the Permittee or their engineer, a permit correction is necessary. ♦ Pull the original permit and make the corrections — do not change issue dates or enter a new application in BIMS — resave the permit ♦ Prepare the permit correction cover letter modifying as applicable — the corrections need to be distributed to the same people/agencies who received the orginal permit ♦ Print the corrected permit and permit correction letter— sign if needed ♦ Maintain Permit in BIMS — add permit corrected event date and comments as to what was corrected ♦ Copy and distribute The Certification ♦ Final engineering certifications will be submitted back to your office when the project is complete. These should be date stamped (the certification page, record drawings and calculations, if applicable) ♦ Construction, Grants & Loans (CGL) may request and audit some of these certifications Regardless of whether the region or CGL reviews a certification, the receipt date must be logged into BIMS. Perform the following: Maintain Permit, Enter Permit No., Go to Events Tab, Add Event, Select Engineering/Tech Specialist Certification Received, Enter Receipt Date ♦ If the certification sheet is marked partial — put partial in the event comment field. ♦ If the certification seems incomplete — missing plans or calculations or no PE seal — note incomplete in the comment field. Send an incomplete certification letter. The certification page in the permit explains exactly what the engineer is to provide. ♦ If the certification is provided to CGL — maintain the engineer certification received event and put "to CGL for review on DATE" in the event engineer certification received comment field. 5 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev2/06) ♦ If the region wishes to perform a detailed review— look for items not meeting the minimum Q criteria or outside of the permit. For instance, minimum cover; slope; minimum separation distan� line size changes; length; reroutes; additional lots than permitted; pump station alarms; pump cycle ` times; no indication of record drawing (as-builts) on plans; no PE seal or note about record drawings (land surveyor seals are not appropriate). A certification checklist is being developed. ♦ Regardless of review, certifications need to be processed as this closes out the permit. Follow the processing engineering certifications guidance document. 6 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) O°�0 m m= 0 33 m T1 D � -o� r tlU ~ H Htl x � D ..

Any pump station/force main projects that require an Environmental Assessment (EA) are excluded from the Fast -Track review process, and should be submitted for full review to the Central Office (PERCS) on FORM: PSFMGSA 10/99. Additionally, any projects involving a flow reduction request must receive approval for the flow reduction from the central office. PRE -REVIEW Does the application package appear to be generally complete (i.e. all attachments, check, key questions answered)? If any portion of the application is not complete, or if any required instruction items have been omitted, RETURN the application package and supporting documents to the applicant using the Project Return Letter template. Send the package and letter via certified mail to the applicant, and a copy of the letter to the engineering consultant. Any projects that are to be returned shall be returned prior to accepting the application (i.e., before logging in the application and depositing the check). After a project has been accepted, any information that is found to be incorrect and/or lacking must be requested via an Additional Information Request in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0208(e). Ensure that a check for $400 is submitted and made out to NCDENR. All new projects and major modifications to existing projects require an application fee. A major modification includes any changes to permitted flow volumes, changes in pipe diameter, changes in pipe length greater that 10% of the originally permitted length, changes in the operating points of a pump station, etc. N A -Application Information If the applicant is private (Item B(2)) and listed as a corporation, check the NC Department of the Secretary of State's web site at http://www.secretary.state.nc.us/Corporations/ to ensure that the Applicant is registered with the Secretary of State to conduct business as a corporation in the State of NC. Developer's and HOA's should be listed. nsure that the signing official meets the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0206(b). If they do not, request a revised application that has been completed by an appropriate official or a letter from an appropriate official that indicates the person in question is delegated to sign the application on the applicant's behalf. A current list of Delegated Signing Officials can be obtained from the PERCS. If a new delegated signing official letter is presented with the application, forward a copy to the central office so that the person may be added to the Delegated Signing Official list. The central office will send E-mails to the appropriate region if a new signing official has been added so that the most current list can be used. The Non -Discharge Permitting Unit has an example delegated signing official letter from hftp:l/h2o.enr.state.nc.us/PERCS/spraypol.htmI#DELEG. SECTION B — Perm' rmation (.....-- Project new? edification? If the project is a modification to an existing permit, be sure to enter th �Lion into BIMS as a permit modification (i.e. "renew/modify application" and not "create new project"). B1MS will pull the previous signing official and affiliations information. Please go through all the tabs and ensure the information is correct for the current project.

Note that the project name on the ap service and on the CPCN must match. Contact the NCUC Public Staff if que tions arise. This is NOT REQUIRED for a municipality or county! E mples of companies that would provide a CPCN are Heater Utilities or Carol a Water Service, etc. Operational Agreement? 2H.020 )(2 ♦ Operational Agreements are only equired if the applicant is not a public entity (i.e. Town, County, etc.) or p lic utility as designated by the North Carolina Utilities Commission AND t e lots being served by the collection system are to be sold to individual ow ers. ♦ If the applicant is a developer, they rNust fill out the DEVELOPER Operational Agreement (FORM: DEV�02/03). A developer may be responsible for the system for an interim p riod until the homeowners association is formed, at which time a P mit Name/Ownership Change request (FORM: PNOCF 06/00) will be eeded to transfer the permit to the HOA. ♦ If the applicant is a homeowners' sociation (HOA), they must fill out the ASSOCIATION Operational reement (FORM: HOA 02/03 The HOA must be regi/An ith th Secretary of State's office and must provide a copy of tociaf ns' Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation. These documents be viewed to ensure that all applicable language regardinil ction system is included as is required by the Operational Ag ♦ The Operational Agreehould be attached to the permit and incorporated into the la of the permit. Please note that Operational Agreement language sot be altered without approval from the Attorney General's Offrational Agreements are available at htt ://h2o.enr.state.nc.CS/ from the collection system applications page. Approval of flow to receiving sewers and,WWTF? (i.e. P4 procedure, but now in-house!) ♦ Ensure that the receiving sewers and WWTF have adequate capacity available to accept the flow volume that is being requested, and that the WWTF has been in compliance with their treatment and disposal permit. Flow acceptance letter(s) from the owner of the WWTF and owner of any intermediate sewers (if different from WWTF owner and applicant)? 2H .0205(d)(3)(C) ♦ Required only if the applicant and the owner of the WWTF/intermediate sewers are not the same entity. ♦ Project specific flow acceptance letters are required. ♦ Ensure that the following items appear in the flow acceptance letter: applicant's name, project name, amount of wastewater flow accepted, date that the flow acceptance was granted, expiration date of the acceptance, and name/permit number of the receiving WWTF. Do not accept a flow acceptance letter that was issued more than one year prior to the receipt of the package. ♦ t Ensure that the owner accepted the entire volume of flow listed in application. 2 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) -roblems Noted: A flow acceptance letter is provided by the receiving WWTP owner but c the downstream sewer owner, which both are different from the applicant. Example, private developer in Knightdale. Both Knightdale and Raleigh would need to provide a flow acceptance letter as Knightdale will tr astewater and Raleigh will treat the wastewater. Wastewater industria ordomestic in ture? ♦ Most projects will ewater that is domestic in nature, however, if Item B.6 indicates that the wastewater is industrial in nature, notify the Regional Office Pretreatment Coordinator or the WQ Pretreatment Unit Central Office to determine if a pretreatment permit is needed or if a program already in place and compliant. low volume calculated correctly? 2H .0219(l) ♦ Ensure that the daily design flow in the application is based on the guidance provided in the regulations or existing flow, and that the explanation as to how this volume was determined is very specific (i.e., 22 three -bedroom homes, 50,000 s.f. of retail space, 18 employees, etc). This information will be included in the description of the system in the permit. Our regs say 120 gpd/bedroom for residential. Note that for one -bedroom the minimum they can use is 240 gpd ♦ If daily design flow is not based on regulations, ensure that the applicant has an approved flow reduction of daily design flow rate on file with the Division. A list of approved flow reductions may be obtained from the DWQ Intranet or by contacting the PERCS. Flow reduction requests are to be reviewed by the central office, and must be reviewed and approved before the application is accepted by the regional office for review. ♦ On occasion, there may be an instance where supporting documentation is submitted with the application for a specific facility. Contact PERCS to determine a course of action. ♦ Ensure that the flows shown on the application match up to what is shown on the plans (if available for review). For example, if the application states that 100 lots are to be developed, ensure that there are 100 lots, and not 150 lots, shown on the plans. Plans are only required for review if the applicant is requesting a variance to the MDC or the .0200's. Do not allocate "future" wastewater flows (i.e., that based on speculative development). These would be permitted in future wastewater collection system extensions. Although, we do allocate"unknown" flows on a per acre basis for industrial/commercial park applications. Generally, the Division has accepted between 900 gpd/acre —1500 gpd/acre. Let the engineer support his calculation. equate information provided regarding the proposed gravity sewer and/or force main (if applicable)? Note 1: An Environmental Assessment may be required if there are 3 miles of gravity sewer over 18-inches in diameter (15A NCAC 1C .0100). Environmental Assessment projects can NOT go Fast -Track! Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is specified and no variance requested C__--- ---Adequate information provided regarding the proposed pump station(s) (if applicable)? Note: An Environmental Assessment maybe required if the pump'station(s) have a firm capacity of 1,750 GPM or greater (15A NCAC 1 C .0100). if there are any questions about whether an EA may be required, discuss with your supervisor or contact Alex Marks of the Planning Branch's Local Government Assistance Unit. ♦ Power reliability at the pump station provided in accordance with Section 5.04 of the Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains document (i.e. dual line feed, portable generator w/telemetry, permanent generator with automatic transfer switch, wet well storage if near Class C waters)? Note 1: Section C of the FTA has to be completed and show a Class C down slope water in order to use wet well storage as a reliability option. Include the special condition in the permit. You will need to ask for storage calculations and the power outage data. Note 2: Ensure telemetry is specified if a portable generator is called out. Check with the engineer if unsure. Note 3: Ensure an f automatic transfer switch (ATS) is specified if a permanent (standby) generator is specified. Check with the engineer if unsure. Main Problems Noted: Failure to specify appropriate or applicable power reliability option 3 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2/06) Project designed in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0200, the Gravity Sewer Criteria and the Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stati Force Mains document (as applicable)? NO will be checked in Item B(12) of the FTA. If forward one copy of the supporting documents to the Central Office for review indicating the permit number, owner and project name. The Central Office will review the variance request and if approvable, specific language regarding the variance will be forwarded to the Regional Office reviewer to incorporate into the permit. A copy of the variance letter provided by the central office should be kept with the application file. If you catch something in the application or supporting documents that is not in accordance with our regs or MDC, send an additional information request. Main Problems Noted: A public entity specifies 6-inch line when 8-inch is required; 4-inch line is specified and no variance requested; supporting documents show slope issues... SECTION C — Watershed Classification Color topographic map submitted? tershed classification required? If YES, you are advised to "spot-check" the classification(s).

Drafting a Permit ♦ In order to be consistent, use the most current version of the Fast -Track permit shell. This permit shell contains specific language with respect to the Minimum Design Criteria, regulations, and collection system permitting. The PERCS will notify you of any changes to this permit shell. ♦ Be specific with respect the system description and information. Indicate the flow, what the project will be serving, length and size of gravity sewer lines and force mains, etc. For projects involving pump stations, the size of the pump stations, as well as the reliability option and any additional info (telemetry, odor control system, etc) should be included. A sample permit is on the DWQ Intranet. s Add or remove any special conditions as necessary. Please call attention to any non-standard permit conditions in the cover letter of the permit and include the permit condition where necessary. Seethe Example Special Conditions document. ♦ If the project is a modification, don't forget to include the system description from the previous permit and void the previous permit in the language! Some of these can be tricky so feel free to run the drafted permit through PERCS first before issuance. ♦ It is preferable if Fast -Tracks are saved electronically by permit number under issued year and month. 4 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) ect the Reviewer/Supervisor determines that an application package should be denied because it can not meet NC Statutes, rules or regulations, then a denial letter should be drafted. Special attention should be paid to the statutory deadline for permitting. If it is thought that a project might be denied, it is important to review it and draft the denial letter as soon as possible. There must be time allowed for the denial letter to be sent up to the Director and signed prior to the statutory date. ♦ The Reviewer should use the Application Denial Letter template to prepare a denial package for the Supervisor's review and submittal to the Director for signature. The letter should not be dated, but instead will be dated after the Director signs it. A memo to the Director should be attached to the top of the denial package summarizing the reasons for denial. This package must be singed off on by the reviewer, supervisor, Section Chief, and Director. Distribute the letter as directed in "Issuing a Permit" below. Issuing a Permit ♦ Permits should be signed only by those delegated to sign for the Director. ♦ Permits should be distributed as follows (include the signed Operational Agreement with the permit and all distribution copies if applicable!): ✓ Original to the Permittee ✓ Copy to the consulting engineer ✓ Copy to the county health department ✓ Copy to the Mecklenburg County Department of Environmental Protection for all projects located in Mecklenburg County ✓ Copy(ies) to the owner of the WWTF and owner of the downstream sewers (if different than the Permittee) ✓ Electronic Copy and Hard Copy to the PERCS for our files ✓ Copy to Central Files (attach application package and any supporting documents with a staple — do not include any plans unless they are small and can be folded up into an 8.5" x 11" sheet) ✓ Save an electronic version named WQOOXXXXX.doc in a folder on your office shared drive or hard drive. Try to keep your drafts and issued files separate. SEND ELECTRONIC COPIES TO PERCS on a frequent basis— weekly or monthly! Permit Corrections ♦ If a permit has been issued but an error discovered MADE BY US internally or by the Permittee or their engineer, a permit correction is necessary. ♦ Pull the original permit and make the corrections — do not change issue dates or enter a new application in BIMS — resave the permit ♦ Prepare the permit correction cover letter modifying as applicable — the corrections need to be distributed to the same people/agencies who received the orginal permit ♦ Print the corrected permit and permit correction letter — sign if needed ♦ Maintain Permit in BIMS — add permit corrected event date and comments as to what was corrected ♦ Copy and distribute The Certification ♦ Final engineering certifications will be submitted back to your office when the project is complete. These should be date stamped (the certification page, record drawings and calculations, if applicable) ♦ Construction, Grants &Loans (CGL) may request and audit some of these certifications ♦ Regardless of whether the region or CGL reviews a certification, the receipt date must be logged into BIMS. Perform the following: Maintain Permit, Enter Permit No., Go to Events Tab, Add Event, Select Engineering/Tech Specialist Certification Received, Enter Receipt Date ♦ If the certification sheet is marked partial — put partial in the event comment field. s If the certification seems incomplete — missing plans or calculations or no PE seal — note incomplete in the comment field. Send an incomplete certification letter. The certification page in the permit explains exactly what the engineer is to provide. ♦ If the certification is provided to CGL — maintain the engineer certification received event and put "to CGL for review on DATE" in the event engineer certification received comment field. 5 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) ♦ If the region wishes to perform a detailed review —look for items not meeting the mini criteria or outside of the permit. For instance, minimum cover; slope; minimum separation Line size changes; length; reroutes; additional lots than permitted; pump station alarms; pu, times; no indication of record drawing (as-builts) on plans; no PE seal or note about record drawinc (land surveyor seals are not appropriate). A certification checklist is being developed. ♦ Regardless of review, certifications need to be processed as this closes out the permit. Follow the processing engineering certifications guidance document. 6 FAST -TRACK Application Review Procedures 2003 (Rev 2106) SOUTHEAST PROPERTY MGMT INC for8usiness 333 13200 SW 128TH ST # El RC Retirement Plans ,y MIAMI, FL 33186-5831 r 25-80/440 Consulting 1 November 7, 2006 Mr. Roger Edwards Division of Water Quality Non -Discharge Permitting Unit North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources 2090 US Highway 70 Swannanoa, North Carolina 28778 ®�c��o�� �3 III � NOV — 8 2006 WATER QUA?_ITY SE.C:TI �1 pCt�t-vl�L fC=C?i: n- -�-- RE: Sewer System Improvements Southern Living Apartments Clay County, North Carolina Permit #WQ0030951 Dear Mr. Edwards: It has been brought to our attention that the application and subsequently the permit for the above mentioned project contained erroneous informati Project' the number of units listed in the applon.
