RE: Sewer System Capacity Calculations
Old Murphy Road Force Main
Town of Franklin
Dear Kevin:
Pursuant to your request, please find enclosed two (2) copies of calculations relating to
the capacity of the 8-inch force main along Old.Murphy Road in Franklin, North Carolina.
Our analysis concludes that a minimum of 50 gpm capacity remain unallocated in this
line at the present time. If you have any questions concerning these calculations or wish to meet
to discus our assumptions, please do not hesitate to give me a call.
Sincerely,
MCGILL ASSOCIATES, P.A.

OLD MURPHY ROAD
EXISTING FORCE MAIN HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS SUMMARY
TOWN OF FRANKLIN / MACON COUNTY
May 29, 2001
• Based on field verification by the Town, the existing force main size on Old
Murphy Road is 8-inch diameter.
• Based on water billing records, maximum daily flow for industrial park is
approximately 40,000 gpd.
• Utilizing a peaking factor of 4.0, the peak influent flow into the industrial park
pump station wetwell is estimated to be 160,000 gpd or 111 gpm.
• Based on 198 beds and 30 staff members, the Britt Haven Nursing Home average
daily flow is estimated to be 12,630 gpd, or 8.77 gpm. Assuming a peaking factor
of 3.0, the peak flow is estimated to be 26.3 gpm.
Main pump stations pumping into the existing force main include the new Enloe
Pump Station (repumped from LBJ Job Corps), the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station, the Industrial Park Pump Station, the Britt Haven Nursing Home Pump
Station, and the Pressley Road Pump Station. A schematic showing the locations
of the pump stations is attached. Reportedly there are several other much smaller
private pump stations serving individual units that also pump into the force main.
No information is available for these pump stations.
• Due to high pumping capacity of pumps in the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station (rated at 260 gpm), this analysis assumes that the Mill Creek Golf Club
and the Industrial Park pump stations do not operate at the same time.
Based on conversations with the Mill Creek GC maintenance staff, the pump
station operates less than 1 hour per day. It appears that the pumps are
significantly oversized for the flow being received.
• Based on a review of pump curves for the existing pump stations, the expected
normal flows from each station when all stations are operating simultaneously
(except for the Mill Creek GC) are as follows:
Pump Station
Expected Flow (GPM)
Enloe (repump from LBJ)

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Assumptions and Criteria
• Analyze additional flow contributed to existing force main along Old Murphy
Road.
• Assume flow is introduced in the vicinity of the Britt Haven Nursing Home. Any
other flow contributions downstream of this point would produce less frictional
headloss in the force main at the same assumed flow.
Results
• Based on the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow near Britt Haven, the
Industrial Park pump station operating point is estimated to be reduced from 200
gpm to approximately 160 gpm. Since the estimated peak flow from the
industrial park is 111 gpm, the addition of 50 gpm would appear to be acceptable
while still allowing for minor variances in flows in the force main. See attached
system curve superimposed on the pump curve for the Industrial Park pump
station.
• The hydraulic analysis indicates that the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow
will increase the head condition at the Britt Haven pump station by approximately
10 feet. Based on a review of the Britt Haven pump curve for the existing pumps,
it is estimated that the pumped flow will decrease by approximately 5 gpm at the
increased head condition. It is estimated that the Britt Haven pump station will
still be capable of exceeding its estimated peak flow of 26 gpm at the increased
head condition.
• Due to the extreme downstream location of the Pressley Road pump station, the
introduction of the additional 50 gpm of wastewater flow is expected to have a
negligible impact on the Pressley Road pump station.
• Additional flows at other locations downstream of Britt Haven should also be
acceptable since additional headloss that results should be less than that calculated
in this analysis.
In order to ensure that the Mill Creek Golf Club pump station is not operating at
the same time as the Industrial Park pump station, it is recommended that a
storage tank be installed at the Industrial Park pump station to store wastewater
flow when the Mill Creek GC pump station is operating. Telemetry systems at
each station would -also be required to lock -out the Industrial Park pump station
when the Mill Creek GC pump station is operating.
• Any future pump stations that connect to this force main should be designed
considering the flow and head conditions of the other pump stations. McGill
Associates should be consulted prior to approval of any future connections.

This letter is being forwarded to you regarding the Town of
Franklin's acceptance of the wastewater flows being generated by the
subject project.
The Town of Franklin understands that the subject sewer
extension will serve the new Cartoogechaye Elementary School and
accepts the wastewater flow bring generated from these facilities. We
recognize that the wastewater flow being generated by the project,
according to the State Division of Water Quality (DWQ) guidelines, will be
approximately 4,800 gallons per day.' This flow will be .discharged into
the town's existing six-inch sewer force .main system along Old Murphy
Road near the entrance to the new school. The DWQ permit number for
this section of existing sewer is unknown, while the receiving treatment
plant (Town of Franklin's wastewater treatment plant) is assigned NPDES
permit number NC0021547.
If you have - any questions or we can provide any additional
information, please do not hesitate to call.

OLD MURPHY ROAD
EXISTING FORCE MAIN HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS SUMMARY
TOWN OF FRANKLIN / MACON COUNTY
May 29, 2001 (Revised January 18, 2002)
• Based on field verification by the Town, the existing force main size on Old
Murphy Road downstream of the Industrial Park is 8-inch diameter. The existing
Mill Creek force main between the proposed school pump station and the
industrial park is 6-inch diameter based on record drawing information.
• Based on water billing records, maximum daily flow for industrial park is
approximately 40,000 gpd.
• Utilizing a peaking factor of 4.0, the peak influent flow into the industrial park
pump station wetwell is estimated to be 160,000 gpd or 111 gpm.
• Based on water billing records for the year 2001, the average daily flow for the
Britt Haven Nursing Home is approximately 6,900 gpd or 4.79 gpm.
• Main pump stations pumping into the existing force main include the new Enloe
Pump Station (repumped from LBJ Job Corps), the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station, the Industrial Park Pump Station, the Britt Haven Nursing Home Pump
Station, and the Pressley Road Pump Station. A schematic showing the locations
of the pump stations is attached. Reportedly there are several other much smaller
private pump stations serving individual units that also pump into the force main.
-No information is available for these pump stations.
• Due to high pumping capacity of pumps in the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station (rated at 260 gpm), this analysis assumes that the Mill Creek Golf Club
and the Industrial Park pump stations do not operate at the same time, or that the
cycle time for the Mill Creek Pump Station is so short that its affect on the
pumping capacities of the other pump stations is negligible. This is a reasonable
assumption because, based on conversations with the Mill Creek GC maintenance
staff, the Mill Creek pump station operates less than 1 hour per day. It appears
that the pumps are significantly oversized for the flow being received.
• Based on a review of pump curves for the existing pump stations, the expected
normal flows from each station when all stations are operating simultaneously
(except for the Mill Creek GC) are as follows:
Pump Station
Expected Flow (GPM)
Enloe (repump from LBJ)

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Assumptions and Criteria
• Assume Mill Creek pump station is not running simultaneous with the new school
pump station. Additional storage will be provided in the school pump station
wetwell to account for periods when the stations run simultaneously.
The length of 6-inch force main that will include both the Enloe pump station
flow (45 gpm) and the new school pump station flow (30 gpm) is approximately
200 feet. A total flow of 75 gpm in a 6-inch force main results in a velocity of
only 0.85 fps. At a length of only 200 feet, it is assumed that the headloss
generated by this extremely low velocity is negligible for the purposes of this
analysis.
• Analyze additional flow contributed to existing force main along Old Murphy
Road.
• Assume flow is introduced in the vicinity of the Britt Haven Nursing Home. Any
other flow contributions downstream of this point would produce less frictional
headloss in the force main at the same assumed flow.
Results
• Based on the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow near Britt Haven, the
Industrial Park pump station operating point is estimated to be reduced from 200
gpm to approximately 160 gpm. Since the estimated peak flow from the
industrial park is 111 gpm, the addition of 50 gpm would appear to be acceptable
while still allowing for minor variances in flows in the force main. See attached
system curve superimposed on the pump curve for the Industrial Park pump
station. .
• The hydraulic analysis indicates that the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow
will increase the head condition at the Britt Haven pump station by approximately
10 feet. Based on a review of the Britt Haven pump curve for the existing pumps,
it is estimated that the pumped flow will decrease by approximately 5 gpm at the
increased head condition. It is estimated that the Britt Haven pump station will
still be capable of exceeding its estimated peak flow of 26 gpm at the increased
head condition.
• Due to the extreme downstream location of the Pressley Road pump station, the
introduction of the additional 50 gpm of wastewater flow is expected to have a
negligible impact on the Pressley Road pump station.
• Additional flows at other locations downstream of Britt Haven should also be
acceptable since additional headloss that results should be less than that calculated
in this analysis.

14W
• Any future pump stations that connect to this force main should be designed
considering the flow and head conditions of the other pump stations. McGill
Associates should be consulted prior to approval of any future connections.
Flow Estimate for proposed Cartoogechaye Elementary School for temporary
connection to force main
Initial planned enrollment, according to Macon_ County Schools: 400 students
Flow = 400 students x 12 gpd/student = 4,800 gpd or 3.33 gpm. Assuming that this flow
occurs over a span of 12 hours (class, teachers and janitorial), the flow is adjusted to
9,600 gpd, or 6.67 gpm. An appropriate peaking factor should be applied to this
figure when selecting pump capacity.
Ultimately, gravity sewer service will be provided with a connection to the future
Cartoogechaye Creek sewer interceptor. This future gravity connection will allow
the school pump station to be removed.

OLD MURPHY ROAD
EXISTING FORCE MAIN HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS SUMMARY
TOWN OF FRANKLIN / MACON COUNTY
May 29, 2001(Revised January 18, 2002)
• Based on field verification by the Town, the existing force main size on Old
Murphy Road downstream of the Industrial Park is 8-inch diameter. The existing
Mill Creek force main between the proposed school pump station and the
industrial park is 6-inch diameter based on record drawing information.
• Based on water billing records, maximum daily flow for industrial park is
approximately 40,000 gpd.
• Utilizing a peaking factor of 4.0, the peak influent flow into the industrial park
pump station wetwell is estimated to be 160,000 gpd or 111 gpm.
• Based on water billing records for the year 2001, the average daily flow for the
Britt Haven Nursing Home is approximately 6,900 gpd or 4.79 gpm.
• Main pump stations pumping into the existing force main include the new Enloe
Pump Station (repumped from LBJ Job Corps), the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station, the Industrial Park Pump Station, the Britt Haven Nursing Home Pump
Station, and the Pressley Road Pump Station. A schematic showing the locations
of the pump stations is attached. Reportedly there are several other much smaller
private pump stations serving individual units that also pump into the force main.
No information is available for these pump stations.
• Due to high pumping capacity of pumps in the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station (rated at 260 gpm), this analysis assumes that the Mill Creek Golf Club
and the Industrial Park pump stations do not operate at the same time, or that the
cycle time for the Mill Creek Pump Station is so short that its affect on the
pumping capacities of the other pump stations is negligible. This is a reasonable.
assumption because, based on conversations with the Mill Creek GC maintenance
staff, the Mill Creek pump station operates less than 1 hour per day. It appears
that the pumps are significantly oversized for the flow being received.
• Based on a review of pump curves for the existing pump stations, the expected
normal flows from each station when all stations are operating simultaneously
(except for the Mill Creek GC) are as follows:
Pump Station
Expected Flow (GPM)
Enloe (repump from LBJ)

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Assumptions and Criteria
• Assume Mill Creek pump station is not running simultaneous with the new school
pump station. Additional storage will be provided in the school pump station
wetwell to account for periods when the stations run simultaneously.
The length of 6-inch force main that will include both the Enloe pump station
flow (45 gpm) and the new school pump station flow (30 gpm) is approximately
200 feet. A total flow of 75 gpm in a 6-inch force main results in a velocity of
only 0.85 fps. At a length of only 200 feet, it is assumed that the headloss
generated by this extremely low velocity is negligible for the purposes of this
analysis.
• Analyze additional flow contributed to existing force main along Old Murphy
Road.
• Assume flow is introduced in the vicinity of the Britt Haven Nursing Home. Any
other flow contributions downstream of this point would produce less frictional
headloss in the force main at the same assumed flow.
Results
• Based on the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow near Britt Haven, the
Industrial Park pump station operating point is estimated to be reduced from 200
gpm to approximately 160 gpm. Since the estimated peak flow from the
industrial park is 111 gpm, the addition of 50 gpm would appear to be acceptable
while still allowing for minor variances in flows in the force main. See attached
system curve superimposed on the pump curve for the Industrial Park pump
station.
• The hydraulic analysis indicates that the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow
will increase the head condition at the Britt Haven pump station by approximately
10 feet. Based on a review of the Britt Haven pump curve for the existing pumps,
it is estimated that the pumped flow will decrease by approximately 5 gpm at the
increased head condition. It is estimated that the Britt Haven pump station will
still be capable of exceeding its estimated peak flow of 26 gpm at the increased
head condition.
• Due to the extreme downstream location of the Pressley Road pump station, the
introduction of the additional 50 gpm of wastewater flow is expected to have a
negligible impact on the Pressley Road pump station.
• Additional flows at other locations downstream of Britt Haven should also be
acceptable since additional headloss that results should be less than that calculated
in this analysis.

• Any future pump stations that connect to this force main should be designed
considering the flow and head conditions of the other pump stations. McGill
Associates should be consulted prior to approval of any future connections.
Flow Estimate for proposed Cartoogechaye Elementary School for temporary
connection to force main
Initial planned enrollment, according to Macon County Schools: 400 students
Flow = 400 students x 12 gpd/student = 4,800 gpd or 3.33 gpm. Assuming that this flow
occurs over a span of 12 hours (class, teachers and janitorial), the flow is adjusted to
9,600 gpd, or 6.67 gpm. An appropriate peaking factor should be applied to this
figure when selecting pump capacity.
Ultimately, gravity sewer service will be provided with a connection to the future
Cartoogechaye Creek sewer interceptor. This future gravity connection will allow
the school pump station to be removed.

Dear Mr. Barnett:

RE: Cartoogechaye Elementary School
Interim Sewer System Improvements
Macon County, North Carolina
Please find enclosed an engineering analysis that evaluates the available capacity in the
existing sewer force main located along Old Murphy Road in Macon County. This analysis
concludes that the existing force main could receive an additional flow of at least 50 gpm
without adversely impacting the existing pump stations which discharge into this force main.
The analysis assumes that the additional flow is inserted into the force main near the existing
Britt Haven adult care facility.
As you are aware, the new Cartoogechaye Elementary School is being constructed in
the vicinity of the Britt Haven adult care facility. Ultimately, both the school and the Britt
Haven facility will be provided with gravity sewer service through connections to the
Cartoogechaye Creek sewer interceptor, which is currently being designed. However,
temporary sewer service will be needed to allow the school to open as scheduled. Our
preliminary estimates indicate that the average daily flow from the new school will be
approximately 4,800 gpd, or 3.33 gpm. Even when appropriate peaking factors are applied,
the flow generated by the school will be considerably less than the 50 gpm available reserve
capacity in the existing force main.

We are currently in the process of evaluating temporary sewer service options for the
school and would like to meet with you within the next week to discuss these options in detail.
We will contact you shortly to schedule this meeting. In the meantime, if you have any
questions regarding the attached analysis, please do not hesitate to call. We appreciate your
cooperation and input into this important project for Macon County.

OLD MURPHY ROAD
EXISTING FORCE MAIN HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS SUMMARY
TOWN OF FRANKLIN / MACON COUNTY
May 29, 2001
Revised January 4, 2002
• Based on field verification by the Town, the existing force main size on Old
Murphy Road downstream of the Industrial Park is 8-inch diameter.
• Based on water billing records, maximum daily flow for industrial park is
approximately 40,000 gpd.
• Utilizing a peaking factor of 4.0, the peak influent flow into the industrial park
pump station wetwell is estimated to be 160,000 gpd or I I I gpm.
• Based on water billing records for the year 2001, the average daily flow for the
Britt Haven Nursing Home is approximately 6,900 gpd or 4.79 gpm.
• Main pump stations pumping into the existing force main include the new Enloe
Pump Station (repumped from LBJ Job Corps), the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station, the Industrial Park Pump Station, the Britt Haven Nursing Home Pump
Station, and the Pressley Road Pump Station. A schematic showing the locations
of the pump stations is attached. Reportedly there are several other much smaller
private pump stations serving individual units that also pump into the force main.
No information is available for these pump stations.
Due to high pumping capacity of pumps in the Mill Creek Golf Club Pump
Station (rated at 260 gpm), this analysis assumes that the Mill Creek Golf Club
and the Industrial Park pump stations do not operate at the same time, or that the
cycle time for the Mill Creek Pump Station is so short that its affect on the
pumping capacities of the other pump stations is negligible. This is a reasonable
assumption because, based on conversations with the Mill Creek GC maintenance
staff, the Mill Creek pump station operates less than 1 hour per day. It appears
that the pumps are significantly oversized for the flow being received.
• Based on a review of pump curves for the existing pump stations, the expected
normal flows from each station when all stations are operating simultaneously
(except for the Mill Creek GC) are as follows:
Pump Station
Expected Flow (GPM)

HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
Assumptions and Criteria
• Analyze additional flow contributed to existing force main along Old Murphy
Road.
• Assume flow is introduced in the vicinity of the Britt Haven Nursing Home. Any
other flow contributions downstream of this point would produce less frictional
headloss in the force main at the same assumed flow.
Results
Based on the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow near Britt Haven, the
Industrial Park pump station operating point is estimated to be reduced from 200
gpm to approximately 160 gpm. Since the estimated peak flow from the
industrial park is 111 gpm, the addition of 50 gpm would appear to be acceptable
while still allowing for minor variances in flows in the force main. See attached
system curve superimposed on the pump curve for the Industrial Park pump
station.
The hydraulic analysis indicates that the introduction of 50 gpm of additional flow
will increase the head condition at the Britt Haven pump station by approximately
10 feet. Based on a review of the Britt Haven pump curve for the existing pumps,
it is estimated that the pumped flow will decrease by approximately 5 gpm at the
increased head condition. It is estimated that the Britt Haven pump station will
still be capable of exceeding its estimated peak flow of 26 gpm at the increased
head condition.
• Due to the extreme downstream location of the Pressley Road pump station, the
introduction of the additional 50 gpm of wastewater flow is expected to have a
negligible impact on the Pressley Road pump station.
• Additional flows at other locations downstream of Britt Haven should also be
acceptable since additional headloss that results should be less than that calculated
in this analysis.
• Any future pump stations that connect to this force main should be designed
considering the flow and head conditions of the other pump stations. McGill
Associates should be consulted prior to approval of any future connections.

Flow Estimate for proposed Cartoogechaye Elementary School for temporary
,onnection to force main
Initial planned enrollment, according to Macon County Schools: 400 students
Flow = 400 students x 12 gpd/student = 4,800 gpd or 3.33 gpm. Assuming that this flow
occurs over a span of 12 hours (class, teachers and janitorial), the flow is adjusted to
9,600 gpd, or 6.67 gpm.
Check capacity of existing Britt Haven pump station:
If flow from the school is connected to the existing Britt Haven pump station, the total
average daily flow to the station would be 4.79 gpm + 6.67 gpm = 11.46 gpm
Peaking Factor for population of 600 (400 for school and 200 for Britt Haven) is 4.0
utilizing State criteria. Therefore, anticipated peak flow for the Britt Haven pump station,
including the flow from the school, is 11.46 gpm x 4.0 = 45.84 gpm.
Since the existing pumps are currently pumping approximately 50 gpm, it appears
that the Britt Haven pumps have adequate capacity to pump the peak flow
generated by both the school and the adult care facility.

Dear Mr. Barnett:

RE: Cartoogechaye Elementary School
Interim Sewer System Improvements
Macon County, North Carolina
Please find enclosed an engineering analysis that evaluates the available capacity in the
existing sewer force main located along Old Murphy Road in Macon County. This analysis
concludes that the existing force main could receive an additional flow of at least 50 gpm
without adversely impacting the existing pump stations which discharge into this force main.
The analysis assumes that the additional flow is inserted into the force main near the existing
Britt Haven adult care facility.
As you are aware, the new Cartoogechaye Elementary School is being constructed in
the vicinity of the Britt Haven adult care facility. Ultimately, both the school and the Britt
Haven facility will be provided with gravity sewer service through connections to the
Cartoogechaye Creek sewer interceptor, which is currently being designed. However,
temporary sewer service will be needed to allow the school to open as scheduled. Our
preliminary estimates indicate that the average daily flow from the new school will be
approximately 4,800 gpd, or 3.33 gpm. Even when appropriate peaking factors are applied,
the flow generated by the school will be considerably less than the 50 gpm available reserve
capacity in the existing force main.

We are currently in the process of evaluating temporary sewer service options for the
school and would like to meet with you within the next week to discuss these options in detail.
We will contact you shortly to schedule this meeting. In the meantime, if you have any
questions regarding the attached analysis, please do not hesitate to call. We appreciate your
cooperation and input into this important project for Macon County.

SUBJECT: Macon County - Little Tennessee River/
Cartoogechaye Creek Trunk Sewer Line
Preliminary Engineering Report
Project No. E-SRG-T-02-0134
I am writing in response to the April 3, 2002 letter and April 12 fax from your consulting
engineer, McGill Associates, concerning the Construction Grant and Loans (CG&L)
determination that the subject project does not fall within the criteria for a minor activity. I also
discussed the basis for CG&L's determination with McGill Associates on April 18. A copy of
the April 12 fax is attached for your reference.
The determination that the project is not a minor activity was made because the proposed
effluent reuse amount of 165,000 GPD exceeds the 100,000 GPD threshold and because the
sewer length is over 3 miles and the sewer capacity exceeds 1.0 MGD. We cannot support
lowering the effluent reuse amount to less than 100,000 GPD for the purpose of making the
project a minor activity as discussed in the April 12 fax. Also, because there are 2.65 miles of
24-inch, 1.99 miles of 16-inch, and 3.79 miles of 12-inch interceptor sewers proposed along the
Little Tennessee River and Cartoogechaye Creek, Construction Grants and Loans would
determine that the project needs a complete environmental review even if the effluent reuse
amount did not exceed the 100,000 GPD threshold.
As noted in my March 22 letter, the project will require circulation to targeted and
departmental reviewers. The Preliminary Engineering Report should be revised to include an
Environmental Assessment that is adequate for the environmental review process and
resubmitted for our review. Eighteen (18) copies of the revised report that include an
Environmental Assessment should be provided in order to facilitate circulation. After the
technical and environmental review process has been completed and all issues have been
resolved, a Finding of No Significant Impact and an Environmental Assessment can be submitted
to the State Clearinghouse.

COMMENTS: Larry, attached are the flow calculations that you requested for the Macon
County sewer interceptor project. Also, with regards to the spray irrigation reuse system at
the wastewater treatment plant, it seems that an exception to the EA requirement could be
granted since the County will be using an un-used portion of their landfill property as the
spray irrigation field. This property is owned by Macon County. If necessary, public access
could be restricted. We would like you to strongly consider either this exception, or lowering
the system capacity of the spray irrigation design to less than 100,000 gpd to avoid the
requirement for the EA. Please give me a call and let me know what you think. Thanks..
Mike

MACON COUNTY
LINE SIZING CALCULATIONS
MAY 30, 2001
UPDATED APRIL 15, 2002
Current Town of Franklin WWTP flow = 1,050,000 (average daily flow)
Based on a review of the sewer system map for the Town of Franklin, it is estimated that
approximately 400,000 gpd of this current flow, will be transmitted through the Little
Tennessee River portion of the proposed interceptor.
The Franklin 201 Facilities Plan Amendment (McGill Associates, September 2001)
shows a total future flow of . 3.28 MGD for the service area, or an increase of
approximately 2.23 MGD. Based on a review of the sewer system and future service area
maps, it is estimated that approximately 70% of this additional future flow will be
conveyed through the Little Tennessee River portion of the sewer interceptor.
Future Flow Determination — Little Tennessee River portion of sewer line
Current Flow: 1,050,000 gpd x 0.40 = 420,000 gpd
Future Flow: 2,230,000 gpd x 0.70 = 1,561,000 gpd
Total Future Flow: 1,981,000 gpd
Size line for average daily flow with line flowing half -full (per NCDWQ guidelines)
Due to grades for proposed alignment, assume minimum grade at velocity of 2.0 fps.
Flow capacity required=1,981,000 gpd =1376 gpm = 3.07 cfs
-'Try 21-inch diameter: Area = 3.14159 x (1.75)2 / 4 = 2.405 sf, half -full = 1.20 sf
Flow capacity at half -full = vA =1.20 sf x 2.0 fps = 2.41 cfs < 3.07 N.G.
- Try 24-inch diameter: Area = 3.14159 x (2.0)2 / 4 = 3.14 sf, half -full = 1.57 sf
Flow capacity at half -full = vA = 1.57 sf x 2.0 fps = 3.14 cfs > 3.07 O.K.
Therefore, use 24-inch diameter pipe for Little Tennessee River portion of line

- Try 16-inch diameter: Area = 3.14159 x (1.33)2 / 4 =1.39 sf, half -full = 0.70 sf
Flow capacity at half-fu11= vA = 0.70 sfx 2.0 fps =1.40 cfs > 1.17 O.K.
Therefore, use 16-inch diameter pipe for Cartoogechaye Creek portion of line
01713/misc/flow calculations.doc

Table 3-5 tabulates the projected flows for the future sewer service area for the
Franklin's Wastewater Treatment Plant. Based on historical wastewater•treatment plant flows, a
maximum daily flow peaking factor of 1.6 is anticipated. Table 3-5 indicates that the projected
average daily wastewater flow for the 20-year planning period is 3.3 mgd.

1. As stated previously in this Section of the report, Infiltration/Inflow (M) has been assumed to be
approximately 23% of the total flow. This figure is the estimated average I/I for the entire sewer
collection system over the planning period.
2. Total flow increase between 2001 and 2006 is assumed to be the •entire flow allocation of 521,650
gpd as shown in Table 3-2.
3. Residential flow increase between 2001 and 2006 includes flow allocations from Table 3-2 for
the following properties: Holt Dowdle Mountain Road (15,000 gpd), Ochsener Property (21,150
gpd), Macon County Housing Project (11,500 gpd), and Trampis Dowdle-Old Murphy Road
(2,500 gpd). The total residential flow increase between 2001 and 2006 is, therefore, estimated to
be 50,150 gpd.
4. Since all the properties listed in Table 3-2 have not yet been developed, it is assumed that a small
portion of the flow generated by these properties will be light industrial wastewater. The amount
of industrial flow increase between 2001 and 2006 is estimated to be 4,420 gpd.
5. Commercial/Institutional flow increase between 2001 and 2006 is the balance of the flow
allocations in Table 3-2 that are non-residential and non -industrial. The amount of
commercial/institutional flow increase between 2001 and 2006 is 467,080 gpd.
6. Flow increases between 2006 and 2021 are estimated at 4.2% per year as previously stated in this
Section of the report.

Preliminary Engineering Report
Project No. E-SRG-T-02-0134
The Construction Grants and Loans Section has completed its review of the subject
Macon County Little Tennessee River/Cartoogechaye Creek Trunk Sewer Line Preliminary
Engineering Report. A copy of the comments resulting from this review is attached for your
reference. These comments are also being sent directly to your consulting engineer, McGill
Associates, by copy of this letter. A revised Preliminary Engineering Report that incorporates
responses to these comments should be submitted for our review and approval as soon as
possible. Providing thorough and complete responses to these review comments in a timely
manner is necessary to avoid delays of the project approval.
Also, the scope of the project does not appear to fall within the criteria for a minor
activity; hence, the project will require circulation to targeted and departmental reviewers. In
order for the Facilities Evaluation Unit to review this project, it should be revised to include an
Environmental Assessment that is adequate for the environmental review process and
resubmitted for our review. Eighteen (18) copies of the revised report that include an
Environmental Assessment should be provided in order to facilitate circulation. After the
technical and environmental review process has been completed and all issues have been
resolved, a Finding of No Significant Impact and an Environmental Assessment can be submitted
to the State Clearinghouse.

Preliminary Engineering Report
Project No. E-SRG-T-02-0134
March 22, 2002
General
1. Because the scope of the project does not appear to fall within the criteria for a minor
activity, the project will require circulation to targeted and departmental reviewers. Eighteen
(18) copies of the revised report that include an Environmental Assessment, which is
adequate for the environmental review process, should be provided in order to facilitate
circulation. After the technical and review process has been completed and all issues have
been resolved, a Finding of No Significant Impact and an Environmental Assessment can be
submitted to the State Clearinghouse.
2. Provide documentation that an inter -local agreement with the town of Franklin is currently in
place or that the town is planning to complete an agreement. This information, in the form of
a final agreement, must be provided to Construction Grants and Loans before plans and
specifications are approved.
3. Please also note that approval of the Preliminary Engineering Report (PER) does not
constitute approval of sole source procurement. Plans and specifications must comply with
N.C. General Statute Chapter 133, Section 3, prior to their approval.
4. Pages 3-5: Indicate the locations of the proposed elementary school, commercial
development, Southwest Community College campus, and the town's water treatment plants,
as well as the referenced street/road's names on the PER's maps/figures.
5. Please provide a summary and a breakdown of all proposed sources of funding for the
project, indicating how all of the project costs will be funded. Provide narrative that
addresses the impacts that the project will have on user charges:
a. Provide both current and expected user charges for the typical residential
customer using 5,000 gallons per month;
b. The user charges must be sufficient to repay any loan(s) that is required for the
project, operation and maintenance (O & M) costs. Expected revenue from user
charges should be based on the first year's billable flow;
c. Anticipated disbursements should include the first year's principal and interest
payments, and the first year's O & M costs. Itemize these costs and provide a basis
for the expected user costs.

-2-
6. The owner and consulting engineer should be advised that after approval of the PER, there
are several construction project permits, approvals, certifications, etc. that must be obtained
before the project plans and specifications can be approved, and before the project is
advertised for bids. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that preliminary work to obtain
the following items, if applicable, begin as soon as possible:
a. Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permit from the Division of Land Quality,
or a letter from them stating that no permit is required for this project;
b. 401 Water Quality Certification and Army Corps of Engineer's 404 Pen -nit for
all stream crossings, or a letter from the Army Corps of Engineers and from the
Wetlands 401 Certification Unit stating that none is required for this project;
c. Section 10 Permit for aerial crossings of navigable waters, or a letter from the
Corps stating that none is required for this project;
d. A reasonable subsurface investigation that must be made available to the
contractor. If it is not included in the specifications, the specifications must
advise where a copy of the report can be observed. Typically, Construction
Grants and Loans expects a boring about every 500 feet and at each road crossing
for line work, and at all major structures like pump stations, aeration basins, and
clarifiers.
e. NCDOT Encroachment Agreements and Railroad Encroachment Agreements.
Copies of these agreements must be provided in the specifications, or it must be
documented how all construction requirements, associated with the agreements,
have been incorporated in the plans;
f. All construction easements, permanent easements, and rights -of -way. These
easements and rights -of -way must be shown on the plans.
Section IV. Project Description
1. Page 4: Provide a copy of the referred "Wastewater System Master Plan" or relevant
sections of the plan as an appendix in the PER. Please note that a PER should be a
stand-alone document that incorporates all the information necessary for Construction
Grants and Loans to evaluate the proposed engineering plan.
2. Please address the following alternatives for sewage collection and transport:
a. Improving and upgrading the existing pump stations and force mains;
b. Gravity collection;
c. Alternative routes;
d. On -site treatment systems;
e. Septic Tank Effluent Pump (STEP) collection.

-3-
,ide the engineering calculations/support for the sewer line layout and line size
sed on the following:
a. Flow estimates for area to be served, including the school population and
commercial/industrial growth. Provide the projection of the service population
at the time the proposed facility will start operation for the project area and the
20-year design population;
b. Confirm the capacity of a designed gravity sewer line to carry a peak daily flow
of 2*ADF at %2 full;
c. Please confirm that there is enough slope available to provide the capacity needed.
4. Please confirm that the proposed project design will comply with NCAC 2H.0219 -
Minimum Design Requirements, and NCAC 2H.0124 - Reliability Requirements. (A copy
of .0219 & .0124 is attached for reference).
5. Provide an infiltration/Inflow (UI) analysis in order to determine if the current sewer system
M is excessive:
a. Infiltration is the average daily flow of the three (3) wettest consecutive months
minus the expected flow. Expected flow is based on water billing records minus
a consumptive loss of 10 - 15%. Infiltration greater than 3,000 gallons per
day per inch -mile (GPDIM) of pipe is considered excessive;
b. Inflow is typically estimated from flow records following a one -inch rain event.
The rain event used for the analysis should be preceded by at least five (5) dry
weather days. Inflow is considered excessive if non -industrial instantaneous peak
flows at the wastewater treatment plant, following a one -inch rain, exceeds 275 GPD
per capita served. This figure represents the total flow; do not subtract the baseline
or dry weather flow.
Notes:
Daily precipitation data can be obtained from the State Climate Office at their website at
http://www.nc-climate.ncsu.edu/, through e-mail at sco@.cumulus.meas.ncsu.edu , or by calling (919)
515-3056. Two flow values are of interest: A high peak instantaneous flow can result in a washout of
any clarifiers. A high total flow can affect compliance with NPDES flow limits.
6. Page 5: Provide soil survey data to justify the selection of the proposed reuse water spray
irrigation site near the town's wastewater treatment plant. Provide preliminary design
calculations and engineering support for the designed reuse water's tertiary filtration,
disinfection, storage facilities, and the amount of spray irrigation area that will be required.
7. Page 5: How much flow will the filter backwash waste discharge from the town's water
treatment plant to the wastewater treatment plant's influent flow?

Page 6: What are the feasible alternatives for this project? All of the alternatives discussed
above in item 2, Section IV must be addressed, and any feasible alternative should be
evaluated in the present -worth analysis and cost -comparison. Demonstrate by present -worth
analysis the cost-effectiveness for all of the feasible alternatives. Base the analysis on a
20-year planning period. The EPA discount rate for present -worth analyses that applied -to
projects beginning on or after October 1, 2000 was 6.375%. The current EPA discount rate
for present -worth analyses that applies to projects beginning on or after October 1, 2001 is
6.125%. The present -worth analyses may use either of these discount rates for converting
O & M costs and salvage value to present worth.
9. Show how management of sludge from the re -use facilities will comply with the
40 CFR 503 Regulations. Provide sludge production calculations and discuss the methods
that will be used to comply with pathogen and vector -attraction reduction.
10. Provide diagrams, descriptions, and preliminary design information for the proposed
effluent reuse water facilities proposed to be constructed at the wastewater treatment plant.
Section V. Project Cost Estimates
1. Please provide a summary and a breakdown of all proposed sources of funding for the project
that indicates how all of the project costs will be funded. Provide narrative that addresses the
impacts that the project will have on user charges:
a. Provide both current and expected user charges for the typical residential customer
using 5,000 gallons per month;
b. The user charges must be sufficient to repay any loan that is required for the project
capital and O & M costs. Expected revenue from user charges should be based on the
first year's billable flow. Anticipated disbursements should include the first year's
principal and interest payments, and the first year's O & M costs. Itemize these costs
and provide a basis for the expected user charges.

SYSTEM -WIDE WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM PERMIT
In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as
amended, and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations
PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
Town of Franklin
Macon County
FOR THE
operation and maintenance of a wastewater collection system consisting of approximately 37 miles of gravity
sewer, approximately 8.5 miles of force main, 9 duplex pump stations, and all associated piping, valves, and.
appurtenances required to make a complete and operational wastewater collection system to serve the Town
of Franklin and any deemed permitted satellite communities, pursuant. to the application received on August
1, 2001, and subsequent submittals and in conformity with the documents referenced therein and other
supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of Environment, and Natural Resources
and considered a part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until February 28; 2007 and shall be subject to
the following specified conditions and limitations:
I. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the Town of Franklin
Wastewater Treatment Facility (NC0021547) prior to being disposed into the receiving stream.
This collection system permit will be referenced upon renewal or modification of your NPDES
permit(s).
2. The wastewater collection system shall be effectively managed, maintained and operated at all
times so that there is no discharge to land or surface waters, nor any .contamination of
groundwater. In the event that the wastewater collection system fails to perform satisfactorily,
including the creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective
actions, including actions that maybe required by the Division of Water Quality (Division), such
as the construction of additional or replacement sewer lines and/or equipment.
The Director may take enforcement action against the Permittee for sanitary sewer system
discharges that must be reported to the Division as stipulated in Condition IV(2). This includes
discharges that were caused by severe natural conditions or exceptional events unless the
Permittee demonstrates through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other
relevant evidence that:
11/01

a. The discharge was caused by severe natural conditions; there were no feasible alternat
the discharge, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untrea
wastewater, reduction of inflow and infiltration, use of adequate back-up equipment, or an
increase in the capacity of the system. This provision is not satisfied if, in the exercise of
reasonable engineering judgment, the Permittee should have installed auxiliary or additional
collection system components, wastewater retention or treatment facilities, adequate back-up
equipment or should have reduced inflow and infiltration; or
b. the discharge was exceptional, unintentional, temporary and caused by factors beyond the
reasonable control of the Permittee; the discharge could not have been prevented by the
exercise of reasonable control, such as proper management, operation and maintenance;
adequate treatment facilities or collection system facilities or components (e.g., adequately
enlarging treatment or collection facilities to accommodate growth or adequately controlling
and preventing infiltration and inflow); preventive maintenance; or installation of adequate
back-up equipment;
The Permittee can submit a claim to the Division Regional Office that the discharge meets the
criteria of this condition. The Permittee has the option of submitting this claim along with the
report required by Condition IV(2) (i.e., within five working days), but in all viable instances, the
claim should be submitted to the appropriate Division Regional Office within 10 working days
(i.e., Monday through Friday, excluding State holidays) of the date of the discharge in order to be
considered for immunity -from enforcement action. The Permittee has the burden of proof that the
above criteria have been met.
3. The Permittee shall have the legal authority to implement the requirements of Condition I(4),
require new sewers be properly constructed, ensure proper inspection and testing of sewers and
laterals, and address flows from satellite systems.
4. The Permittee shall maintain an educational and enforcement program that requires the proper
operation and maintenance of all grease traps and septic tanks connected to the wastewater
collection system. The educational program should target both residential and commercial users.
5. The Permittee shall implement a. Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to designate funding for
reinvestment into. the wastewater collection system infrastructure. The CIP should address the
short-term needs and long-term "master plan" concepts. The CIP should typically cover a three to
five year period and include a goal statement; description of the project area, description- of the
existing facilities, known deficiencies (over a reasonable period) and forecasted future needs. Cost .
analysis is integral to the CIP.
6. Existing overflow piping from manholes and pump stations, excluding piping to approved
equalization structures, shall be immediately removed or permanently capped. Plugged emergency
pumping connections are allowable for portable pumping or rerouting without intentionally
bypassing the wastewater treatment facility.
7. The Permittee shall maintain a contingency plan for pump failure at each pump station. If one of
the pumps in a pump station containing multiple pumps fails, the process of repairing or replacing
the pump shall be initiated immediately and the new parts or pump shall be installed as soon as
possible. If the pump in a simplex pump station fails, it shall be replaced immediately. .
8. Each pump station shall be clearly and conspicuously posted with a pump station identifier and an
emergency contact telephone number at which an individual who can initiate or perform
emergency service for the wastewater collection system 24 hours per day, seven days per week can
be contacted. This emergency contact telephone number shall be coupled with instructions for
anyone to call if the visual alarm illuminates, if the audible alarm sounds, or if an emergency is
apparent.
2 11101

.tion sites, equipment and components shall have restricted access, per 15A NCAC 2H
7).
Ltions that do not employ an automatic polling feature (i.e. routine contact with pump
rom a central location to check operational status of the communication system) shall
i audible and visual high water alarms. The alarms shall be weather-proof and placed in a
conspicuous location. Permits issued for the construction of pump stations that included
nigh water alarms in the description must maintain the alarms even if simple telemetry (i.e.

MEMO
TO: Sam Greenw
FROM: Joel Storrow
cc: Mayor Ed Henson
DATE: January 26, 2001
RE: Little Tennessee River/Cartoogechaye Creek Trunk Sewer
On January 2, 2001 the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR) issued'a moratorium on additional sewer connections to the Town of Franklin's system
serving the West Macon area.. The moratorium is due to the existing sewer lines being at capacity
and unable to accept additional flow.
This situation affects.the allocation to the new West Macon Elementary School (under
construction) as well as other pending and future services generally along the Old Murphy Road
west of Pressley Road. We are presently discussing several short term improvements options with -
the NCDENR to secure some additional capacity. However, such improvements are at best
temporary relief to a fast growing area of the County.
The recently completed Water and Sewer Master Plan proposed a gravity trunk sewer line
following the Little Tennessee River and Cartoogechaye Creek up to the Industrial Park. This
project would provide a long-term solution to sewer service throughout the area, providing a main
trunk line from which additional collection ' interceptors could extend. The project has been
estimated to cost $3,919,800.00, as itemized on the attached estimate.
Since this project would directly address the moratorium, it is eligible for $2,000,000.00 in
High Unit Cost grant funds through the NCDENR. Timeliness of an application is important since
this grant money is expected to be exhausted following the Spring, 2001 round. Macon County
must be the applicant, due to eligibility being tied to the higher user fees applicable to customers
outside Town limits.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project as proposed begins at the terminus of the recently completed 30-inch sewer at
the Main Street bridges. That project replaced an aging and undersized portion of the main sewer
line along the west bank of the Little Tennessee River, reducing infiltration and inflow in the
existing sewer line.
The new project would begin with a new 24-inch sewer, replacing undersized town lines in
the Depot Street area. It would extend south along the bank of the Little Tennessee River through
the Zickgraf property. Our preliminary routing indicates that either a new route behind Zickgraf or
an alternate route along Depot Street would need to be selected. The line would continue along the
west bank of the Little Tennessee River to the mouth of Cartoogechaye Creek. The sewer line
would turn up Cartoogechaye Creek as an 18-inch pipe to a point below the Roller Mill Shopping
Center. The sewer would then decrease to 12-inch size and continue up the Creek to the Macon
County Industrial Park. Please refer to the.enclosed map for the proposed sewer line routing and
related landmarks.
PROJECT BENEFITS
The proposed sewer line extension would allow the retirement of several existing Town
maintained pump stations along the route resulting in a long term savings in operation and
maintenance costs. The pump stations that could be taken off-line include Indian Mound, Belden,
Britt Haven Rest Home, and. the Industrial Park.
The Town's water treatment plant located near the Industrial PpTk could also use the
proposed gravity line for filter backwash waste discharge.
The project provides new sewer service to the proposed Southwest Community College site
and a commercial development envisioned by Jim Vanderwoude along the US 441 bypass. The
project is also a permanent solution to meeting the sewer needs of the new West Macon Elementary
School.

PROTECT FUNDING
As stated, the project is eligible for $2,000,000.00 in grant funds from the NCDENR.
Other potential funding sources include $400,000.00 in the form of a Supplemental Grant from the
North Carolina Rural Center and $200,000.00 from the Appalachian Regional Commission. It may
also be possible to secure funding from Advantage West to help with the preliminary project
planning and design.
In order to prepare a competitive NCDENR grant application, work must begin soon to
meet the March 31, 2001 deadline. The cost to prepare this application is estimated to be
$7,000.00. It is also important to note that some portion of the engineering design would need to
be completed by May 31, 2001 to meet eligibility requirements of the NCDENR program.
Please call me if you have any questions, or require additional information.

Review Comments
November 17, 1999
General
Please provide a revised Operational Agreement utilizing the attached form. This form
and updated permit application forms can be found on the world wide web at
h!tp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ndpu/ndpuQps.html.
2. Provide calculations to verify the effect of this pump station on the existing pump station
and also the effect of the existing pump station on the operation of the proposed pump
station. With the information provided, only the ability of this pump station to operate
when the existing pump station is pumping can be evaluated. This evaluation is also
incomplete because the additional friction head in the existing force main cannot be
determined. Before a complete analysis can be done, the following information must be
provided:
a. The length of the existing force main from the point of intersection to the final
discharge point.
b. The pumping capacity of the existing pumps. Pump curves should also be
provided.
c. The high point (from point of intersection) and discharge elevations for the
existing force main.
There are no existing permits which can be readily identified as Mill Creek Pumping
Station. A list of the non -discharge permits issued to the Town of Franklin is enclosed.
If the appropriate permit can be identified, I will be glad to assist in obtaining any of the
above information which may be contained in the permit.
3. Calculations must be provided showing that, by size and slope, the immediate
downstream sewer and downstream minimum slope section of sewer are adequate to
handle the combined pumped flow from both the existing and proposed pump station.
Specifications
1. Section 07260 — The minimum separation requirements between water and sewer lines
should be included. They can be found in the attached Gravity Sewer Minimum Design
Criteria.
2. Section 07290.B - The specifications call for a minimum 5-foot diameter manhole. A 4-
foot diameter is acceptable for the 8-inch sewers provided.

3. Section 07290.0 — A flexible connector for the manhole to sewer connection is
mandatory. See also plan sheet 7.
4. Section 07310.G — Complete the missing section reference number.
5. Provide specifications for the proposed standby generator and automatic transfer switch.
An alarm or telemetry system should be provided in the event that the generator fails to
start.
Plans
1. Sheet 1 of 7
a. Show the 10-foot minimum separation requirement between the water and sewer
lines in East and West Coventry Lanes.
b. The proposed lift station invert elevations do not agree with those shown on Sheet
#7.
2. Sheet 5 of 7
a. Show the invert in of the gravity line to the pump station.
b. Several if the inverts to the manholes are incorrectly labeled `TOP ELEV.
C. Show the 6-inch water line in the profile between Manhole #1 and the pump
station.
d. Show the 6-inch and 2-inch water lines in the profile between Manholes #5 & #6.
e. Show the minimum clearances between all water and sewer lines in the profiles.
3. Sheet 6 of 7
a. Show both inverts in to Manhole #1.
b. The invert elevation for Manhole #14 is incorrect.
4. Sheet 7 of 7
a. Since the pump station valves are not located in a lockable vault and a standby
generator must be provided, the pump station site must be enclosed by a security
fence. Restricted access to the site and equipment is required by 15A NCAC 2H
.0219 (h) (7).
b. Show the width and depth of the pump station base slab.
C. Show the centerlirie or invert elevation of the force main out of the pump station.

d. The discharge piping is shown as both 4-inch and 2-inch. Please clarify.
e. Provide calculations to support the wetwell capacity and detention times shown in
the table. The numbers given do not appear to be supported by any of the
elevations given.
f. Provide a site plan of the pump station showing an all weather access road and the
relative locations of the wetwell, generator, electrical panel, etc. Include all
dimensions including size of fenced area, width of roadway, depth and type of ..
material for roadway, fencing details, generator pad details, type of surface inside
of the fenced area, etc.
g. In the type of hoist to be used to remove the pumps from the pump station.'
Show any mounts as' required.
h. Indicate the material for the vent screen.
is The high water alarm and the lag pump on should be set at the same elevation as
an extra safety measure.
