access the public street network by new driveway entrances on SR2106, Woody Drive
which is located 1,309 LF NE of NC HWY 54, E. Harden St. and Woody Drive. The
second access point is located 1,528 LF from same intersection and a third entrance is
located 1,109 LF NE of NC HWY 54, E. Harden St. and SR2107, Whittemore Road.
SOILS INFORMATION
The soil in the project area is mapped as
EnD Enon sandy loam, 10 to 15 percent slopes
CnD2 Cullen clay loam, 10 to 15 percent slopes, moderately eroded
CnB2 Cullen clay loam, 2 to 6 percent slopes, moderately eroded
EoB2 Enon clay loam, 2 to 6 percent slopes, moderately eroded

III. Certification Statement:
I Frankie Maness certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the receiving
wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to cause any capacity
related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station en route to the receiving
treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation of the planned improvements
identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This analysis has been performed in accordance
with local established policies and procedures using the best available data. This certification applies to
those items listed above in Sections I and II plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I
am the responsible party. Signature of this form certifies that the receiving collection system or treatment
works has adequate capacity to transport and treat the proposed new wastewater.
