mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Final record drawings should be clear on
the plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and are defined as the design drawings that are
marked up or annotated with after construction information and show required buffers,
separation distances, material changes, etc.
b. One copy of the supporting applicable design calculations including pipe and pump sizing, velocity,
pump cycle times, and level control settings, pump station buoyancy, wet well storage, surge
protection, detention time in the wet well, and force main, ability to flush low points in force
mains with a pump cycle, and downstream sewer capacity analysis. If a portable power source or
pump is dedicated to multiple stations, an evaluation of all the pump stations' storage capacities
and the rotation schedule of the portable power source or pump, include travel timeframes, shall
be provided.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in noncompliance with this permit, regulations, or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification
in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting
in non-compliance with this permit (including but not limited to pipe length changes of 10% or
greater, increased flow, pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and
increases in the number/type of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria.
Requested modifications or variances to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case -by -
case basis and each on its own merit. Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria
should be requested and approved during the permitting process prior to construction. After -
Page 6 of 8
construction requests are discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring
replacement or repair prior to certification & activation. [15A NCAC 02T .0116]
8. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the Division's
Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified until
corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined, a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation.
This shall be done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests will be evaluated
on a case -by -case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and submitting
the construction certification. [ 15A NCAC 02T.0105(n)]
9. A copy of the individual permit and construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the
Permittee for the life of the wastewater collection facilities. [15A NCAC 02T .0116]
10. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 02T; the
Division's Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted June
1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an enforcement
action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes §143-215.6A through §143-
215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities, and/or referral of
the North Carolina -licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board. [15A NCAC 02T .0108(b-c)]
11. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those
as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement facilities.
[15A NCAC 02T .0110; 15A NCAC 02T .0108(b)]
12. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by the Division any other Federal, State, or Local
government agencies which have jurisdiction or obtaining other permits which may be required by
the Division or any other Federal, State, of Local government agencies. [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]

Size (inches) Length (feet) Material
305 8 DIP
Section II & III of the MDC for Permitting of Gravity Sewers contains information related to design criteria
Section III contains information related to minimum slopes for gravity sewer(s)
Oversizing lines to meet minimum slope requirement is not allowed and a violation of the MDC

1. Pump station number or name:
2. Approximate Coordinates (Decimal Degrees): Latitude: Longitude: -
3. Design floe of the pump station: millions gallons per day ( firm capacity)
4. Operational point(s) of the pump(s): _ gallons per minute at feet total dynamic head (TDI-1)
5. Summarize the force main to be permitted ( for this Pump Station):
Size (inches) Length (feet) Material
6. Power reliabilityin accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0305(h)(1):
❑ Standby power source or pump with automatic actuation and telemetry - 15A NCAC 02T .0305(h)(1)(13):
Required for all pump stations with an a,,crage daily flow greater than or equal to 13,000 gallons per day
> Must be permanent to facility
Or if the pump station has an average daily flow less than 15,000 gallons per day:
❑ Portable power source with manual activation. quick -connection receptacle and telemetry - 15A NCAC 02T
_0305(h)(l)(C)
or
❑ Portable pumping unit with plugged emergency pump connection and telemetry - 15A NCAC 02T .0305(h)(1)(C):
:- It shall be demonstrated to the Di%ision that the portable source is owned or contracted by the applicant (draft agreement)
and is compatible %%ith thestation.
If the portable power source or pump is dedicated to multiple pump stations, anevaluation of all the pump stations`
storage capacities and the rotation schedule of the portable power source or pump, including travel timeframes, shall be
provided in the case of a multiple station power outage.

15A NCAC 02T.0305(g) contains alternatives where separations in 02'I'.0305(f) cannot be achieved.
*"Stream classifications can be identi lied using the Division's NC Surface Water Classifications wehyge
If noncompliance with 02T.0303 1 or g .see Section X of this application
2. Does the project comply with separation requirements for wetlands? (50 lect of separation) ® Yes [:]No
See the Division's draft separation requirements for situations %%here separation cannot be meet
No variance is required if the alternative design criteria specified is utilized in design and construction
As built documents should reference the location of areas effected
3. Does the project comply with all setbacks found in the river basin rules per 15A NCAC 02B .0200? ® Yes ❑ No
This would include Trout Buffered Streams per I5A NCAC 2B.0202
4. Does the project comply with an individual 404 Permit or any 401 Certifications? ® Yes [:]No
Wetland -related permits shall be requested, obtained, and adhered to for projects that impact wetlands or surface waters
Y Information can be obtained from the 401 & Buffer Permitting Branch
5. Does project comply with 15A NCAC 02T.0 105(cli 6) (additional permitsicertifications)? ®Yes ❑ No
Per 15A NCAC 02 r.0105(c)(6), directly related environmental permits or certification applications are being prepared, have
been applied for, or harc been obtained. Issuance of this permit is contingent on issuance of dependent permits (erosion and
sedimentation control plans, stormwater management plans. etc.)_
6. Does this project include any sewer collection lines that are deemed "high -priority?"
Per 15A NCAC 021'.0402, -high-priority sewer' means "any aerial sewer, sewer contacting surface waters, siphon. or sewer
positioned parallel to streambanks that is subject to erosion that undermines or deteriorates the sewer.
❑ Ycs ® No
:- If }es, include an attachment with details for each line, including t) pe (aerial line, size, material. and location).
High priority lines shall be inspected by the permittee or its representative at least once every six -months and
inspections documented per ISA NCAC 02T.0403(a)(5) or the permitee's individual System -Wide Collection permit.
