Re: The Landing at Lewis Creek Estates Apartments
Private Sewer
This Application is for a Private Sewer Extension to service the development of 114-1 & 2 Bedroom
Apartment Units, 12-3 Bedroom Apartment Units, a 7,000sf Clubhouse/Leasing Center & a 100 Person
Pool Facility. This Application proposes 342 linear feet of 8-inch C900 gravity sewer and a flow of
36,880 gpd. The proposed extension will connect to the proposed 19 LF Public Sewer Modification
that connects to the existing sewer installed with the Landing at Lewis Creek Estates Development
(W Q0040056).
Please contact me immediately at [phone] or [e-mail] if you have any
questions or require additional information.
Sincerely,
GSP CONSULTING, PLLC.

111. Certification Statement:
1 Jeff Theberge, CFPUA Eng. Mgr 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 11 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.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available Capacity is <
0.
Pump Station (Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
24.4 % and 1.449 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
89 ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
Blue Clay Road Force Main is in design or under construction with
planned completion in Complete ; and/or
d. The following applies:
The Blue Clay Force Main is able to provide additional capacity at PS 89 by
diverting existing flow that is currently tributary to PS 89 directly to NS W WTP.
Construction of the force main is complete and was certified 4/5/18. The force main is
available for event management. Administrative procedures are required for full activation.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to allow
this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in the system
infrastructure.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste disposal
system.
