Please provide calculations for pump station cycle time and pump run time for the Dutchmans Creek Pump Station(DCPS). Verify with calculations that the Dutchmans Creek Pump Station(DCPS) is capable of handling 4150 gpm with the largest of the three (3) 120 hp pumps out of service. 2. The sewer interconnect present worth analysis in Table 5 on page 10 appears to contain an addition error in the calculation of the Total Present Worth for Option 3. Please correct this error and, in addition, include the salvage value and the present worth of salvage value for each option. A basis must be provided for the determination of the salvage values for each option. Typically, transport pipelines have a 50 year useful life. Therefore, construction costs associated with pipelines will result in a salvage value of 3/5 of the original construction cost in a 20-year present worth analysis. 3. Using the information provided on page 8, provide calculations for the determination of the residential user fees (for 5000 gallons/month) for the Town of Stanley when the town must provide their share of the cost for the future Mt. Holly WWTP expansion in FY 2002/2003. 4. Clearly define what portion of the Stanley service area will be directed to the Mt. Holly interconnect sewer on the map after page 6. Also identify the current amount of flow and the 20-year design flow from this portion of the Stanley service area. 5. Please identify the source of the 123,800 gpd 20-year design flow into Line Segment 6-5. 6. Table 1 on page 4 shows the total WWTP project cost as $1,312,500, but page 8 states that the cost estimate is $1,323,000. Please revise the report where necessary. 7. The Outfall Basis of Design for Option 3 table on page 5 of 24 and 6 of 24 in the Sewer Interconnect Design Notes contains the following inconsistencies: a. Line Segment 1-DCPS is identified as a 36" outfall rather than as a 30" outfall used in Table 3 and the Enlarged Plan of the Sewer Interconnect Schematic after page 8. b. Basin K flow in Line Segment 1-DCPS is less than the Basin K flow in Line Segment 2-3 and 2-1. Line 1-DCPS Design ADF = 111,900 gpd Line 2-3 and Line 2-1 Design ADF = 114,700 gpd c. No basis is provided for the Design ADF of 135,000 gpd in Basin"A" and the Design ADF of 362,500 gpd in Basin"G". Please provide the basis for the future 20-year design flow for these basins not shown on page 14 of 24 and 15 of 24. d. Please revise the Design ADF for Line Segment 2-3 in Table 3 on page 7 to match the Line Segment 2-3 Design ADF of 1,196,570 gpd. e. Please explain the d/D @ Peak Ratio of 103 % for Line Segment 3-4. 8. Please specify what portion of the 494,000 gpd Stanley WWTP flow and the 366,270 gpd sewer line to Mt. Holly flow in Table 2a are current flows and what portion are 20-year design flows. Provide calculations for this determination. Also specify the current and future flows for the Stanley WWTP and the sewer line to Mt. Holly once the additional capacity Mt. Holly WWTP is placed on line and provide a basis for your assumptions. 9. Please advise how the Table 2a flow splits correlate with the Outfall Basis of Design for Option 3 table on page 5 of 24 and 6 of 24 in the Sewer Interconnect Design Notes. 10. The parallel Line Segment 2-3 with 4628 LF of 12" outfall and the existing 15" outfall appears incapable of transporting the Peak Design ADF flowing half full. Please verify the capacity of the parallel Line Segment 2-3 with calculations. 11. One public hearing, with a 15-day notification, is required. A copy of the engineering amendment to the facility plan should be made available for review by the public at least 10 days prior to the public hearing. The hearing should cover the following items: a. Identify the problem. b. Discuss the selected alternative. c. Identify the size of the projected loan. d. Discuss any associated interlocal agreements. e. Identify the effect that the Stanley WWTP/ Sewer Interconnect to Mt. Holly project will have on the typical residential users monthly sewer bill as well as the effect that the future Capacity Expansion of the Mt. Holly WWTP project in FY 2002/2003 will have on the typical residential users monthly sewer bill. , The advertisement should provide the following information: a. Identify the time and location of the public hearing. b. Advise where and when a copy of the engineering amendment to the facility plan can be observed. c. Provide a brief description of the proposed project. d. Advise how much funds are required and identify the source of funding. 12. Provide a transcript or detailed summary of hearing and affidavit of publication. 13. Provide a copy of the interlocal sewer interconnect agreement to be entered into by Gaston County and the Town(page 2, section 6.1.) as soon as it becomes available. 14. We understand that the intermunicpal agreement requires the City of Mt. Holly to be the lead agency for the construction of the sewer interconnect project. This is acceptable to us; however, all progress payments from Construction Grants & Loans will be made to the Town of Stanley based on reimbursement requests with supporting documentation submitted by the Town of Stanley. Bids must be in hand for all projects at or about the same time because Construction Grants & Loans will only issue one Authorization to Award to cover all of the projects related to the Town of Stanley. 15. Please address the attached Environmental Assessment comments. 4 ENVIRONMENTAL COMMENTS 4 Amended Stanley Facilities Plan (). August 28, 1996 1. The U.S. Corps of Engineers should evaluate the project to confirm the presence of jurisdictional areas and to determine if permit conditions will be required to construct. 2. What is the name of the surface water in which Mt. Holly's effluent is presently discharged? A brief description of the basin and the stream's water quality should be provided. 3. A copy or summary of the public hearing should be provided. Document that the public hearing was properly advertised. 4.

Goudreau, Mt. Region Coordinator „id Habitat Conservation Program DATE: June 20, 1996 SUBJECT: I)EHNR No. 790, Engineering Amendment to the Town of Stanley 201 Facilities Plan, Gaston County. This correspondence responds to a request by you for our review and comments regarding the Engineering Amendment to the Town of Stanley 201 Facilities Plan in Gaston County. We previously commented in a memorandum to you dated 15 June 1994 on the Towns plan to increase the capacity of its wastewater treatment plant to 1.0 million gallons per day (MGD). The Town of Stanley is now proposing to keep the capacity of the wastewater treatment plant at 0.500 MOD and purchase 0.500 MGD of treatment capacity from the Mount Holly facility. A sewer interconnect will be constructed along NC 27 between the two sewer systems to convey wastewater from Stanley to Mount Holly for treatment. The Town of Stanley also plans to improve existing facilities at their wastewater treatment plant. We have no objection to this amendment, and concur with the findings of the Environmental Assessment included in the report. We have the following suggestions for minimizing adverse impacts from sewer lines: 1) Project sponsors should contact the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for a 404 permit application. Contact is Mr. Steve Chapin at 704/271-4014. 2) Where crossings are necessary, sewer lines should cross streams at right angles to minimize impacts to riparian areas. 3) Sewer lines crossing streams should be buried in the stream bottom or attached to existing bridges to maintain fish movement upstream and downstream and prevent debris from collecting at the pipe and causing a hydrologic change. We do not recommend installing priers in a stream channel to support a sewer line. NCt,j C , HCP ,FALLS LAKE TEL :919-528-9839 Jun 20 ' 9t; 12 : 36 No . 001 P .04 4) An undisturbed buffer zone should he left between streams and all construction. We prefer a buffer zone of at least 50 feet to control sedimentation into streams, provide shade, and maintain a travel corridor for wildlife. 5) A portion of the right-of-way (one acre) should be planted with VA-70 lespedeza, Korean lespedeza, ladino clover, and/or partridge pea to provide food and additional habitat for wildlife. 6) If necessary, ROW areas should be mowed not more than once every 2-3 years. Mowing should he done in February and March only to protect small game nesting later in the year. 7) Stringent erosion control measures should be implemented where soil is disturbed and maintained until project completion. 8) Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. We prefer a "seed as you go" strategy rather than allowing a large area to remain bare. Thank you ibr the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 704/652-4257. State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources AI; Division of Parks & Recreation James B. Hunt, Jr., Governor p � H NJ F� Jonathan B. Howes, Secretary Dr, Philip K. McKnelly, Director June 18, 1996 Memorandum TO: Melba McGee FROM: Stephen Hall S SUBJECT: 201 Facilities Plan Amendment -- Sewer Interconnection between Stanley and Mount Holly, Gaston County REFERENCE: 790 The biological assessment conducted for this project appears to be quite thorough. The Division accepts the findings that over most of the length of the project, environmental impacts are likely to be minor and can be contained through use of best management practices. We are concerned, however, about the impacts to the high quality stand of mesic forest that exists along the project corridor downstream from the Twin Brooks pump station. This site contains a significant stand of the bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla), a species regarded as significantly rare in North Carolina, and was previously identified by the Natural Heritage Program as a Priority Natural Heritage Area. As discussed in the biological assessment, the preferred alignment for the sewer interconnection would eliminate approximately fifty individuals of the magnolia, which, according to our records, includes most of the population. We strongly recommend that the alignment be modified in this section of the project corridor. From the report, as well as Natural Heritage Program data, an alignment running along the east side of South Stanley Creek would have the fewest impacts to the magnolia population and the high quality mesic forest to which it belongs.

We have no objections to the need and concept of the proposed action. 2. It looks like all construction activities will result in the direct impact to 16 acres of urban forest land and the indirect impact to 2 to 4 acres of additional urban type forest land. 3. Since there appears to be some large trees involved, it is hoped that the contractor will make all attempts to salvage merchantable trees for pulpwood, chips and saw timber whenever possible. 4. We would further hope that the contractor would protect remaining standing trees outside of construction limits from damage from heavy equipment type of operations. 5.

The proposed project involves improvements to the existing wastewater treatment plant as well as a sewer interconnect with the town of Mt. Holly. Based on the modifications proposed, an air permit will not be required. However, if sources of particulate emissions such as a lime silo are installed, an air permit may be required. In addition, the contractors should take care to comply with open burning provisions during land clearing. Adequate wetting, reseeding and covering of disturbed areas should be utilized during earth moving operations to mitigate any adverse impact from fugitive dust emissions.

Mize, EIT, Envir an ,j y�gineer Pollution Prevention Progra // / Office of Waste Reducti Subject: Comments on Project Number 790, Town of Stanley Wastewater Treatment Facilities, Stanley, NC, Engineering Amendment to the Town of Stanley 201 Facilities Plan, May, 1996, Gaston County The Town of Stanley is proposing to expand its wastewater treatment plant and collection system as well as to enter into an agreement with the Town of Mount Holly for treatment of a portion of its waste. The Office of Waste Reduction does not have any objection to the project as proposed, but would like to offer the following water conservation information. In the April, 1996 issue of US Water News an article outlined a water conservation program being conducted by the City of Greensboro, NC.(article attached) The City of Greensboro was offering a rebate in consumers water bills if they would install early closing flaps in their toilets. The City of Greensboro is expecting to reduce its water consumption by 25 million gallons per year. The City of Greensboro is conducting this program for potable water capacity assurance, but it also saves this amount being treated in the wastewater treatment facilities. In promoting water use efficiency the Town of Stanley may wish to consider offering water conservation information to its residents and industries through rebates such as Greensboro, fliers in the monthly water bills, public service announcements, special mailings, etc. The Town of Stanley may also wish to consider adjusting its rate structure to create an incentive for water conservation for all of its industrial/commercial users and residents. This would most likely be cheaper in the long run for the public than the costs treating additional wastewater. On page 4 of the report it states that the volume of industrial wastewater projected is being reduced due to industrial water reuse. It is likely that new industrial users of the system could identify opportunities to reduce water usage as well. P. O.

Grinding of the materials for use as mulch, compost, or boiler fuel would be an appropriate option. • Seeding of disturbed areas during the construction phases for erosion and sedimentation control could utilize hydro-seeding or compost in place of straw and asphalt tack. Asphalt tack could pose a threat to water quality, especially in the event of heavy rainfall before the tack dries. Hydro-seeding and compost are made from recycled materials, thus helping to provide beneficial end uses for waste materials and also thereby minimizing their disposal impacts. • Waste materials (concrete, wood, steel) from the project should be reused or recycled. A construction & demolition recycling center could assist with this. There are several operating within North Carolina. For contacts call the Office of Waste Reduction. • The project should consider using recycled materials or recycled-content products in construction. Examples would include crushed concrete sub-base, crumb-rubber for the asphalt, and recycled plastic fence posts or lumber. The Office of Waste Reduction would like to offer its free, non-regulatory, technical assistance to the municipality, existing industries and any new industries that locate in this area. If the Office Waste Reduction car be of assistance, please call 919/715-6500.

We have conducted a search of our maps and files and have located the following structure of historical or architectural importance within the general area of the project: Mount Holly Mill (GS 7). East of North Main Street, north of Dutchman's Creek, south of Alsace Avenue. This property was approved for listing in the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 but was not nominated due to the owner's objection. For purposes of environmental review, it is considered eligible for the National Register and the 401 facilities plan subject to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. We need more information to determine the effect of this project on the Mount Holly Mill. Please send us a letter or plans describing the proposed pump station. We also need to know if the wastewater interconnector will be above or below ground. There are no known archaeological sites within the proposed project area. Based on our present knowledge of the area, it is unlikely that any archaeological resources which may be eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places will be affected by the project construction.

Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0535 Dear Mr. Sutton: Subject: Proposed amendment to the 201 Facilities Plan for the Town of Stanely, Gaston County, North Carolina We received a copy of the subject document on June 3, 1996. The following comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 661-667e), and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act). According to the environmental assessment, this project will involve the construction of a new wastewater collection and pumping system along South Stanley Creek and Dutchmans Creek in northeastern Gaston County. The project will connect the Town of Stanley's sewer system with the City of Mount Holly's sewer system. The wastewater will be treated and discharged at the Mount Holly Waste Water Treatment Plant located on the Catawba River in Gaston County. The project will also involve the construction of a new 2.7-million-gallon-a-day pump station located adjacent to Alsace Mill between Alsace Street and Dutchman's Creek in Mount Holly, 27,300 feet of gravity sewer from four existing pump stations to the proposed Alsace Mill pump station, and 1,400 feet of force main paralleling the southeastern portion of the gravity sewer. Four existing pump stations will be abandoned. The project will impact 25 forested upland acres and one wetland area of less than 1 acre in size. Construction of the interconnector will require two new crossings of Dutchman's Creek. The purpose of the project is serve industrial and residential areas along Highway 27 east of Stanley. The proposed facilities will serve projected future needs for both the Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly. • The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) reviewed and provided comments on the Town of Stanley's 201 Facilities Plan on July 1, 1994. At that time, we indicated that we had no major concerns with the original 201 Plan. Regarding the proposed amendment, the Service has no objection to the construction of the new Alsace pump station since it will be located in a previously disturbed area adjacent to the Alsace Mill. Additionally, the Service appreciates the efforts taken to avoid a majority of the delineated jurisdictional wetlands located along South Stanley Creek. The Service's primary concerns with the proposed amendment include (1) the two new crossings over Dutchman's Creek; (2)the maintenance of a forested riparian buffer along streams; and (3) the elimination of a portion of a population of Bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla), a State-designated significantly rare species. The environmental assessment was not clear as to what mitigative measures were to be employed associated with the stream crossings nor did it specify the extent of vegetated buffer to be preserved between the new sewer lines and area streams. The Service offers the following recommendations in order to minimize impacts to local stream resources: (1) Stream crossings should be constructed perpendicular to streams in order to reduce impacts to stream banks and riparian vegetation. Additionally, stream crossings should be avoided in areas of high-quality aquatic habitats such as riffles and reaches with extensive aquatic vegetation. (2) All pipeline crossings should be buried below the natural streambed, suspended from bridges, or elevated on pilings in order to avoid creating barriers to fish movement and debris jams. (3) Efforts should be taken to ensure that no wet concrete makes contact with stream water in order to avoid a possible fish kill. (4) Natural materials should be used as much as possible to restore stream banks at crossings. We do not object to the use of riprap on the stream bank below the high water mark, but we prefer that vegetation be used for stabilization above high water. (5) Where a pipeline is parallel to a stream, a 50-foot vegetated buffer zone should be preserved between the construction corridor and the stream bank in order to protect the roots of bank-stabilizing riparian trees, allow for storm-water infiltration and deposition of eroded soil and pollutants, and preserve a travel corridor for wildlife. Where existing development or steep contours allow less than a 50-foot buffer alongside streams, additional sediment and erosion control measures should be employed. (6) Areas cleared for construction should be revegetated with an annual ground cover within 15 days of any ground-disturbing activities. We prefer a seed-as-you-go strategy rather than allowing large areas of soil to remain bare for extended periods. Use of an annual rather than a perennial ground cover in wetlands will interfere less with the eventual reestablishment of native vegetation. After completion of construction, wetland areas should be replanted with native perennial plant species. Regarding the population of Magnolia macrophylla to be impacted, the Service encourages, if feasible, consideration of rerouting the pipeline in this area to avoid this population. We have reviewed our records and believe the project will have "no effect" on federally listed species. In view of this, the Service believes the requirements under Section 7(c) of the Act are fulfilled. However, obligations under Section 7 of the Act must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered, (2)this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review, or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat is determined that may be affected by the identified action. Please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Janice Nicholls of our staff at 704/258-3939, Ext. 227, if you have any questions regarding our comments.

Changes are shown in bold Italic print. The selected 201 alternative recommended expanding the Town's wastewater treatment plant to 1.0 MGD to handle future capacity needs. The Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly in March 1996 entered into an intermunicipal agreement for Mount Holly to treat a portion of Stanley's wastewater at Mount Holly's treatment plant on the Catawba River. This will allow Stanley to reduce flow at their treatment facility and not expand the capacity of the plant. The agreement calls for Stanley to purchase 0.500 MGD of treatment capacity at the Mount Holly facility and construct a sewer interconnect between the two sewer systems to convey wastewater from Stanley to Mount Holly for treatment. The Town will also make several needed improvements at their wastewater treatment plant as a part of this engineering amendment. 201 AMENDMENT CHANGES The following 201 Amendment changes, dated May 1996, are included for the Town of Stanley: 1924 Cleveland Avenue Other Offices: Atlanta,GA Charlotte,North Carolina 28203 H Hickor orle,NC Hick NC 704 334-5348 Raleigh.NC FAX 704 334-0078 Columbia,SC 2 Wastewater Treatment Plant (WVVTP): 1. NPDES Permit Flow. The Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant flow capacity will remain 0.500 million gallons per day (MGD). The following improvements are planned and are included in the 201 Amendment: 2. Aerobic Digester. A new aerobic digester (64 ft diameter with an 18 ft. side water depth) will be provided to replace the existing unit. The digester will provide stabilization and storage of sludge for 90 (plus) days at a 2% solids. Additional storage can be done in the existing sludge holding basin. 3. Aeration & Mixing. Replace the aeration basin aerators with two 25-hp floating aerators. Move the two existing 20-hp aerators to the sludge holding basin and provide four 20-hp flow directional mixers in the sludge holding basin. Any three of the 20-hp mixers will provide the mixing requirements with the fourth mixer used as backup. One of the existing 20-hp aerators will be available for backup should one of the 25-hp floating aerator be out of service. 4. Dechlorination Facilities. A sulfur Dioxide gaseous dechlorination system will be provide for the 0.5 MGD treatment capacity. Two 100 lbs/day feeders with accessory equipment and alarms will be provided. Piping and valve modifications will be made to the existing chlorine contact basin to segregate the basin into two separate basins. 5. Standby Power. Standby power for the plant, excluding auxiliary lighting or sludge treatment facilities will be added as required for dischargers to WS waters. 6. Influent Screening and Flow Measuring. Replacement equipment for the mechanical bar screen and flow measurement of the influent flows will be provided. 7. Mechanical Bar Screening. Replace the existing mechanical bar screen with a new unit. The VWVTP upgrade will include modifications where possible to resolve short- circuiting problems in the final clarifiers identified by DEM staff. Estimated project cost of making the WWTP improvements is $1,312,500 (see Table 1). The estimate includes cost of construction, engineering and project contingencies. The estimate of engineering services also includes cost to date by the Town ($216,500) to expand the existing treatment plant. 3 • TABLE 1 WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT PROJECT COST Construction: Mechanical Bar Screening ,t0,00u Influent Flow Measuring 8,000 • Site Work 135,0CC Aerators 35,000 Scum Removal Pumping 16,000 Sludge Meters 8,000 Aerobic Digester& Sludge Handling 475,000 Chlorination/Dechlorination 130,000 Structure Repairs 50,000 Standby Power 50.000 Total Construction $947.00r.

'Mount Ficillisystem:ThetOwn has entered into an ab'reefrient Witsft-the'Cv ft) purchase 0.5 MGD of treatment capacity at the City's 4.0 MGD treatment plar located east of Mount Holly on the Catawba River. A copy of the agree mere , between the two municipalities is attached to the engineering amendment agreement has provisions for future additional treatment capacity purchase by the Town upon approval of both parties. REVISED PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Town operates a 500,000 gallon per day (GPD) wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) located at the end of Lola Street northwest of the Town. The treatment plant is an activated sludge process, discharging treated effluent to Mauney Creek. Stanley will continue to treat most of its wastewater at the Town's treatment plant. The sewer interconnect will be built to the industrial areas along Highway 27 east of Stanley and will serve both industrial and residential areas. The outfall will be built to accommodate future extensions to pick up other areas of the Town's service area in the future. Long range all of the Town's wastewater could be discharged to the Mount Holly system with the Town's existing treatment plant retired or eliminated. It is the Town's plan to continue to operate the existing plant for some time into the future until either it is feasible to treat their wastewater at Mount Holly or future discharge limits to Mauney Creek make the discharge no longer feasible. Stanley's flow projections for the twenty-year planning period are revised to 0.860 MGD from a previously identified need of 1.148 MGD. This change reflects changes in industrial discharges effected by pretreatment and reuse of process water and a reduction in planned residential growth in areas adjacent to the Town's service area. This treatment capacity need can be met with the existing treatment capacity (0.5 MGD) and the purchased treatment capacity from Mount Holly (0.5 MGD). Table 2 shows flow projection changes for the Town. Table 2a shows how the projected Stanley flows will be split between the Stanley WWTP and the sewer interconnect line to Mount Holly.

A service area map in included defining service areas for the Stanley and Mount Holly WVVTP's. Flow projections for the Stanley WWTP show a need for 0.494 MGD of treatment capacity after interconnecting with the Mount Holly system. The total 20-year projected flow to the Mount Holly WWTP, including the 0.5 MGD of treatment capacity for Stanley, is 5.9 MGD. Flows at the Mount Holly WtNTP currently average 2.7 MGD. Current treatment capacity is 4.0 MGD. The interconnect outfall will be sized for the Town of Stanley's total projected flow for a 20-year design. The interconnect sewers are sized for the total average daily flow (ADF) so the pipe will flow approximately 1/2 full at the design loading. The sewer sizing was evaluated to verify the sizing will carry the Peak flow (with a 2.5 peaking factor). The sizing criteria was reviewed with the Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly. The new outfall and pumping station will include the following. A map is included identifying force mains, sewers, meter vault, location, diameter and length of each line segment: TABLE 3 SEWER INTERCONNECT BASIS OF DESIGN (Revised) LINE OUTFALL DESIGN % of DEPTH SEGMENT SIZE, LENGTH AVG.

Combined with the WWTP improvement project cost ($1.312 million), the combined cost is $4.784 million. The projects will be funded by a State bond loan, Gaston County and excess funds available from a Town general obligation bond (GO Bond). The Town's loan application for $3.0985 million was approved by the Local Government Commission and the loan offer and acceptance documents have been sent to the Town. Projected funding is available as follows: State Bond Loan $3.0985 million Gaston County $2.800 million (see note) Town GO Bond $0.700 million Note: The County has agreed to fund the project with 10 annual payments -428e;098fyear) over the next 10-years. Excess funds (over the $4.784 million projected cost) will be used by the Town to purchase treatment plant capacity at the Mount Holly WWTP when the plant is expanded. Expansion is projected to occur within 4 to 6 years. JUSTIFICATION The Stanley treatment plant is currently operating at 92% of its rated treatment capacity. NCDEM regulations require Stanley to increase the capacity to meet future capacity, detail specific measures to achieve waste flow reductions or develop alternative plans to reduce flow at the treatment plant. Estimated cost to expand the treatment plant is $3,006,400. Waste flow reduction is not achievable in a growing economy. Stanley has chosen to reduce flow at the treatment plant with an intergovernmental agreement with Mount Holly to treat up to 0.5 MGD of wastewater. It is advantageous for Stanley to purchase wastewater treatment capacity from Mount Holly in lieu of expanding their own facility. It is increasingly uneconomical for the Town to operate its own wastewater treatment facilities. Consolidation of these activities with the City of Mount Holly is not only financially sound, but furthers regional concepts of consolidation of small wastewater discharges into larger regional facilities, reducing the total number of discharges. The sewer interconnect option offers the Town the option to purchase additional treatment capacity at Mount Holly in 9 • TOWN OF STANLEY PROPOSED OUTFALL SIZE 8" 0.124 MGD A.D.F.

This option is a hedge against future treatment regulation changes which are increasingly difficult for small treatment operations like Stanley to comply. The estimated project cost of the sewer interconnect with Mount Holly, including outfalls and pumping station is $3,471,600. The sewer interconnect offers the additional advantage of eliminating four existing sewage pumping stations, two in the Stanley system and two in the Mount Holly system. The wastewater in Stanley is currently pumped two to three times before reaching the treatment plant. With the sewer interconnect the wastewater will be handled by gravity. The sewer interconnect will reduce the amount of wastewater to be handled at the Town's West Chestnut Street pumping station which now is a major pumping station in the system and experiences overloads during peak flow periods. In the Mount Holly system, the interconnect project will replace two older pumping stations in their system with one larger pumping station. COST EFFECTIVENESS: Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require expansion of the treatment plant and advanced level of treatment required to discharge at the larger flows into a low flow stream. Sewer Interconnect. Three sewer interconnect options were evaluated. All three options conveys wastewater by gravity sewer between Stanley near Highway 27 to the Mount Holly system. Option I requires two new pumping stations in the Mount Holly system to replace two older stations. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be replaced. Option II requires construction of a new pump station near the existing Dutchman Creek pump station near NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be rebuilt with larger pumps and a new force main across Dutchman Creek to a new gravity sewer. The existing Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option III requires a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchman Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Projected construction cost of the three options are: Option I $2,930,700 Option II $2,993,400 Option III $2,925,900 10 WK September 16, 1996 DICKSON Mr. Jay B.

Option III was selected as the sewer interconnect alternative for economic reasons. Option III is less expensive to build and operating one pumping station require less maintenance and operation cost over Options I and II. USER FEES Sewer revenue needs upon initial start-up will be $917,400 per year or $76,450 per month. Currently, 35 percent of the Town's sewer revenues come from its residential customers. Assuming this pattern continues, the monthly sewer revenues which must be generated from residential customers would be: 11 $76,450/month x 35% = $26,663/month Based on current population projections, there should be approximately 1,060 residential accounts at start-up. Monthly sewer cost for a residential user would be: $26,663/month / 1,060 customers = $25.24/month The Town's sewer user charge for FY 1996/1997 is $7.50 for the first 3,000 gallons plus $3.50 for each additional thousand gallons of usage. Therefore, the current sewer user charge for a residential customer using 5,000 gallons per month is $14.50 per month. When the Town must provide their share of the cost for the future Mount Holly WWTP expansion in FY 2002/2003, residential sewer user fees (for 5,000 gallons of usage) are projected to increase to $24.05 per month. This rate projection reflects an average annual increase in revenue needs of 3% for the period plus increased cost for the WWTP expansion debt payments and Mount Holly user charges for treating the Town's wastewater. The anticipated schedule for the Mount Holly WWTP expansion start-up is FY 2002/2003. ENVIRONMENTAL CORRIDOR An Environmental Assessment, prepared by Robert J.

Box 29579 Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0579 Re: Town of Stanley Engineering Amendment to 201 Facilities Plan Project No. E-SBF-T-95-0R20 Dear Mr. Lucas : I am writing in reference to the June 28, 1996 review comments to the Engineering Amendment prepared by W. K. Dickson. Item 16 evokes several issues relative to the agreement between the Town of Stanley and The City of Mount Holly which I wish to explain. The Town and the City have an agreement whereby the Town will provide 100% of the financing of the interconnect project and the City will prepare the plans and specifications and take the lead to construct the interconnect facilities . This arrangement was made with the realization that the majority of the facilities will be located within the City' s service area and the Town had prior arrangements for a State Loan through the Construction Grants and Loans (CG&L) office. The Town has sole responsibility for financing the project and through the intermunicipal agreement will retain ownership of the outfall until the State Loan is repaid. Section 13 , on page 5 of the agreement , includes provision for the Town to purchase 500,000 gallons per day of capacity in the expanded capacity of the City' s WWTP. The agreement for 200,000 gpd of treatment capacity applies only until the City' s plant is expanded or until the Town requests additional treatment capacity at the Mount Holly facility. We are aware the overall project costs included in the intermunicipal agreement are estimates of probable cost and are subject to change until the project is bid and construction contracts are executed. The latest estimates of project costs , included in the August 1996 revisions , are $3. 417 million for the sewer interconnect and S1. 323 million for the proposed improvements at the Town' s wastewater treatment plant . P.O.BOX 279.114 S. MAIN ST.•STANLEY, N.C.28164.704-263-4779•FAX 704-263-9699 I will forward a draft copy of the interlocal sewer interconnect agreement with Gaston County as requested. We will send a final copy after the County completes their budget planning work. We feel the intermunicipal agreement addresses the comments in your June 28, 1996 letter and does not require revision by the two municipalities . The Town also gave the CG&L office draft copies of the agreement for review prior to adoption by the Stanley and Mount Holly Boards . The CG&L office made no comments at that time. Therefore, the two municipalities proceeded with adopting the agreement with the understanding the CG&L office was in agreement with the content of the agreement .

The Town of Stanley proposes to construct a wastewater collection and pumping system along South Stanley Creek and Dutchmans Creek in northeastern Gaston County, North Carolina (Figure 1). The project will connect the Stanley sewer system with the Mount Holly system, and the wastewater will be treated and discharged at the Mount Holly WWTP on the Catawba River. The proposed facilities include a 2.7 MGD pump station located adjacent to Alsace Mill between Alsace Street and Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly, 27,300 feet of gravity sewer from four existing pump stations to the proposed Alsace Mill pump station, and 1,400 feet of force main paralleling the lowermost (southeastern) portion of the gravity sewer. The existing pump stations (Dutchmans Creek, Woodlawn Avenue, Twin Brooks Drive, and Jackson Park) will be abandoned. The proposed force main will discharge to an existing force main at the intersection of NC-27 and NC-273 Bypass (Figures 2a-d). 2.0. PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT. The Town of Stanley wishes to direct industrial, commercial, and residential development along NC-27 southeast of town. The existing Stanley WWTP (0.5 MGD) on Mauney Creek is in a separate drainage basin and would require significant pumping costs. Future expansion of Stanley's WWTP capacity is constrained by the high cost of treatment required by the state to discharge into a small stream. Stanley purchased an agreement from Mount Holly to provide 0.5 MGD of wastewater treatment at Mount Holly's 4.0 MGD WWTP on the Catawba River. The Mount Holly WWTP is better suited for accommodating future expansion than the Stanley WWTP. The project will also serve western Mount Holly and allow both municipalities to provide sewer service to the extraterritorial land between them. The project will ultimately accommodate a wastewater flow of 2.7 MGD, provided that sufficient WWTP capacity is made available. 3.0. EXISTING ENVIRONMENT. 3.1. Geology and Soils. The project area is in the Charlotte Belt of the Piedmont physiographic province, with a prevalence of metamorphosed quartz diorite, granitic rock, and felsic metavolcanic rock (N.C. Division of Land Resources, 1985). Elevations range from 740 feet above mean sea level at the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to 580 feet on Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly. The prevalent soils are Chewacla loam, Helena sandy loam, Winnsboro loam, Wilkes loam, Gaston sandy clay loam, and Pacolet sandy loam (Woody, 1989). 1 3.2. Existing Land Use. The proposed Alsace Mill pump station will be located above the 100-year flood elevation in a grassed area adjacent to Alsace Mill. Of the 27,300 feet of proposed sewerline corridor, 17% is forest edge adjacent to existing dirt roads or utility lines, 53% is unbroken forest, 16% is-shrub and sapling thicket, 13% is paved or grassed, and 1 % comprises stream crossings. Habitat types are described in detail in section 3.6 and Table 1. The proposed wastewater service area beyond the Mount Holly city limits are sparsely developed. 3.3. Water Resources. Surface waters include Dutchmans Creek, its tributary South Stanley Creek, and an unnamed tributary of South Stanley Creek,in the Catawba River(Lake Wylie) watershed. The stream banks are forested along most segments. South Stanley Creek and its tributary have mixed sand, gravel, cobble, and bedrock substrata, with numerous riffles. Dutchmans Creek has a flatter gradient and a predominantly sandy bottom, with few riffles. All streams in the project area are classified WS-IV by the N.C. Division of Environmental Management (DEM). The WS-IV Critical Area for Lake Wylie begins on Dutchmans Creek immediately upstream of NC-273 Bypass, which is the downstream end of the project area. Groundwater aquifers in the project area are classified as MIF(Metaigneous Felsic) and MII (Metaigneous Intermediate), with average well yields of 18 to 19 gallons per minute (Daniel & Payne, 1990). 3.4. Jurisdictional Wetlands. RJG&A ecologists Gerald Pottern and Patrick McMillan delineated jurisdictional wetlands in the project corridor during April and May, 1996, using the 1987 COE Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987)and supplementary technical criteria for hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and hydrology indicators. Twelve jurisdictional wetlands were located along South Stanley Creek upstream of SR 1923 and its unnamed tributary (Figures 2b-d). The drainage basin area of South Stanley Creek at the SR 1923 bridge is 4.38 square miles, and the wetlands upstream of this point are headwater wetlands. No wetlands were encountered along Dutchmans Creek or the lower portion of South Stanley Creek. Eleven of the twelve wetlands are forested floodplain depression wetlands, with canopies containing green ash, river birch, water oak, shagbark hickory, American elm, sweetgum, sycamore, and red maple. The understory shrubs include saplings of the canopy species, musclewood, Chinese privet, spicebush, silky dogwood, tag alder, elderberry, black willow, winterberry, arrowwood, and box elder. Dominant vines and herbs include common greenbrier, poison ivy, Virginia creeper,blackberry,sedges,soft rush,false nettle,jewelweed, coneflower, turtlehead, cane, horsetail, sensitive fern, and southern lady fern. 2 The twelfth and lowermost wetland (F) is a marsh created by impoundment of an intermittent stream for erosion control adjacent to a quarry. It supports shrub and vine thickets containing tag alder, elderberry, black willow, buttonbush, swamp rose, and blackberry; and an herb layer of Japanese grass,wingstem,thoroughworts, sedges,soft rush, arrowhead, cattail, spikerush, and jewelweed. 3.5. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fishes were sampled on 17 April 1996 with a 10-foot long, 3/16-inch mesh seine. The dominant fish species in South Stanley Creek at SR 1923 were sandbar shiner, redlip shiner, yellowfin shiner,greenhead shiner, rosyside dace, bluehead chub, striped jumprock, speckled killifish, redbreast sunfish, and tesselated darter. Dominant fishes in Dutchmans Creek upstream of Main Street included sandbar shiner, spottail shiner,fieryblack shiner,whitefin shiner,bluehead chub,largemouth bass,white bass, bluegill, redbreast sunfish, gizzard shad, Piedmont darter, and seagreen darter. 3.6. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Floodplain and upland forested habitats in the project area are categorized below by the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NHP) community classification system (Schafale and Weakley, 1990). The floodplain forests consist of Levee Forest on well drained sand adjacent to Dutchmans Creek and the lower half of South Stanley Creek, Bottomland Forest on poorly drained silty soils behind levees, and Alluvial Forest along smaller streams where no levee has formed. Dominant canopy trees in floodplain forests include the species listed in floodplain depression wetlands in section 3.4, plus those less tolerant of prolonged saturation such as bladdernut, carrionflower, southern sugar maple, and flowering dogwood. Upland forests consist of Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest on moist acidic slopes, Basic Mesic Hardwood Forest on basic or mafic moist slopes, and Dry-Mesic Oak/Hickory Forest on drier slopes and upland ridges. The mesic forests are dominated by beech, northern red oak, water oak, southern sugar maple, red maple, sweetgum, tulip poplar, shagbark hickory, mockernut hickory, silverbell, and bigleaf magnolia. The basic forest supports a greater abundance and diversity of herbaceous species than does the acidic type. The dry-mesic forest contains primarily white oak, southern red oak, scarlet oak, sourwood, and various hickories, and a sparse herb layer. 4.0. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS. 4.1. No-Action Alternative. The no-action alternative would constrain development along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly to low density uses that can dispose of wastewater through septic systems. This condition is undesirable for economic reasons, and the high failure rate of such systems. 3 4.2. Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require WWTP expansion, excessive pumping costs, and advanced level of treatment required for discharging large volumes of wastewater into a stream with very low flow, as discussed in Section 2.0. This option was rejected as the most expensive build alternative. 4.3. Stanley to Mount Holly Interconnector. Three Stanley to Mount Holly wastewater interconnector alternatives were evaluated. All include a new gravity sewer from the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to the confluence of Dutchmans Creek and Taylor Creek in Mount Holly, and allow the existing Dutchmans Creek, Jackson Creek, and Twin Brooks pump stations to be abandoned. Option I requires construction of two new pump stations; one on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek at its confluence with Taylor Creek, and one on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option II requires construction of a new pump station on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be retained, and a new force main built across Dutchmaos Creek connecting it to the new gravity sewer along the northeast bank. The existing Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option Ill requires construction of a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. A gravity sewer alignment adjacent to the existing sewer along the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek was considered, but determined impractical due to steep slopes, bedrock, and the greater trench depth required. 4.4. Selection of the Preferred Alternative. Both the no-action and Stanley WWTP expansion alternatives were rejected for economic reasons. Of the Stanley to Mount Holly interconnector alternatives, option Ill was selected as the preferred alternative. It requires two new crossings of Dutchmans Creek, one new pump station, and eliminates four existing pump stations. Options I and II require maintenance of two pump stations, and option II also requires an additional Dutchmans Creek crossing. Option I includes a force main, rather than gravity sewer, from the mouth of Taylor Creek to the lower end of the project, and would allow preservation of a wider forested buffer along Dutchmans Creek. The project engineers determined that the environmental benefits of a wider buffer do not justify the higher construction and maintenance costs or the increased risk of blockage or mechanical failure at the two new pump stations. 4 5.0. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES. 5.1. Land Use Changes. Based on a 40-foot wide construction corridor, the project will disturb 25 acres, including 16 acres of forest. The remaining acreage is previously disturbed land including road and utility rights-of-way, lawns, pasture, old fields, and cutover land. A 20-foot wide permanent access corridor will be maintained by periodic mowing. Secondary and cumulative impacts of induced urban growth may affect land use throughout the South Stanley Creek and Taylor Creek watersheds. The major changes will be along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly, where industrial park development is under way. The DEM-mandated local watershed protection ordinances (Stanley, Mount Holly, and Gaston County) will regulate the density and types of new development in those areas within WS-IV watersheds, as discussed in section 5.8. 5.2. Prime and Unique Farmland. Most of the project corridor is either frequently flooded or too steep to qualify as prime farmland. Chewacla loam is a prime farmland soil only where it is drained and protected from flooding or not frequently flooded during the growing season. Chewacla loam is the most abundant soil mapped in the project corridor, but there are no flood control dams in or upstream of the project area. Helena sandy loam and Winnsboro loam are prime farmland soils where they occur on slopes less than 8 percent, including a 2,500 foot segment between the Jackson Park pump station and NC-27, and a few small areas along South Stanley Creek. None of these areas was in cultivation during the field reconnaissance (April to May, 1996). Following construction, areas of prime farmland soils will continue to be suitable for agriculture except for the small areas occupied by manholes. Loss of prime farmland soils to induced urban development in the wastewater service area is likely to occur. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. • 5.3. Public, Scenic, and Recreational Lands. A ball field and playground on the north bank of South Stanley Creek east of SR 1923 is the only dedicated public recreational area in the project corridor. Use of this facility will be interrupted during construction, but no long-term impacts are expected. Dutchmans Creek is a popular bank fishing stream for largemouth bass, redbreast sunfish, catfish, and white bass during their spring spawning migration, according to local anglers. The segment most heavily fished extends from the Main Street bridge in Mount Holly to the mouth of Dutchmans Creek. Fishing access from Main Street to NC-273 Bypass may be temporarily interrupted during construction, but no long-term direct impacts of the project are anticipated. Induced urban growth, however, may adversely affect fish habitat and public access to Dutchmans Creek, as discussed in section 5.12. 5 5.4. Archaeological and Historical Resources. No archaeological or historical inventory of the project corridor has been conducted. The State Historic Preservation Office, N.C. Department of Cultural Resources,will determine whether further information is required. 5.5. Air Quality. An increase in airborne particulates and exhaust emissions from construction vehicles will occur during construction, but the public health impacts of these emissions will be negligible. No operational air quality impacts of the project are anticipated. The wastewater pump station will be located 200 feet or more from the nearest residence. Induced urban growth will result in increased air pollutant emissions from vehicles and certain industrial activities. Gaston County has exceeded EPA threshold criteria for air pollutants during previous years, and requires annual emission testing of gasoline fueled vehicles. 5.6. Noise Levels. Residents adjacent to the project corridor may experience nuisance noise levels during construction, which will be limited to daylight hours. Operational noise of the facility will be negligible. Induced urban growth will cause an increase in noise from vehicles and construction activities. Residences along NC-27 are most likely to be affected. 5.7. Groundwater Resources. The project area is almost entirely impervious, and all rainfall on the site is transported through storm drains to surface streams. No impacts of the project on groundwater recharge are anticipated. 5.8. Surface Water Resources. Project construction will cause a temporary increase in turbidity and sediment load in adjacent streams. These impacts will be minimized by employing standard erosion control practices. An Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan will be submitted to the DEHNR Mooresville Regional Office for approval at least 30 days prior to construction. No direct adverse operational impacts of the project on water quality are anticipated. Impacts of the Mount Holly WWTP effluent on Lake Wylie are regulated by specific limits established in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 6 • The project will deter new septic systems and reduce the number of existing ones in the wastewater service area. Failing septic systems are a common source of surface water pollution, especially in areas of clayey soils. Induced urban growth may adversely affect surface water quality in several ways. An increase in impervious surface area causes a corresponding increase in peak-stormflows, exacerbating channel erosion. Base flows during dry weather are subsequently reduced, causing small perennial streams to become intermittent,concentrating pollutants,and creating high temperature and low-oxygen conditions. Destruction of riparian forests, culverts, drainage improvements,and artificial channel stabilization may also contribute to water quality degradation. 5.9. Introduction of Toxic Substances. Potential sources of toxic substances during construction may include exhaust emissions, oil, fuel, and other vehicle fluids. There are no known petroleum storage tanks or facilities containing hazardous materials to be removed in the project area. No releases of toxic substances are anticipated from operation of the project. 5.10. Eutrophication of Receiving Waters. Nutrient loading to streams in the project area may temporarily increase due to soil erosion during construction, but should be negligible provided that erosion control practices are followed. In flowing streams, most sediment-associated nutrients remain bound to clay particles where they contribute little to eutrophication. These nutrients generally become bioavailable when they settle into the anaerobic hypolimnion of a seasonally stratified pond or reservoir, such as Lake Wylie located one mile downstream of the project. Any additional nutrient loading impacts from project construction will be negligible. Nutrient loading from the Mount Holly WWTP is controlled by effluent limits specified in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 5.11. Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters. The final alignment best avoids the twelve wetlands in the project area. Preliminary calculations indicate that the unavoidable wetland area affected is less than one acre, pending COE verification. Following construction, wetlands will be restored to pre-construction grade, and the permanent mowed access corridor limited to 10 feet wide. Anti-seep collars will be installed per DEM specifications to prevent the gravel-filled trench from draining the wetlands. Induced development will cause further loss and degradation of wetlands throughout the project service area. The rate and distribution of such losses cannot be predicted. 7 • 5.12. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fish and other aquatic organisms may be temporarily affected by elevated silt loading, turbidity, and silt-associated pollutants during construction. Clearing of riparian forests along segments where steep slopes or other design factors preclude the preservation of a wide buffer may cause permanent changes in stream habitat and water quality, thereby affecting fish populations. Induced development may further degrade aquatic habitats as discussed in section 5.8. 5.13. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Habitat types disturbed by project construction are summarized in Table 1. The natural forested community types are described in section 3.6. High quality mesic forests in the project area contain canopy trees averaging 25 to 35 inches diameter at breast height (dbh) and regionally rare species such as bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla), nodding trillium (Trillium rugelli) and yellow lady slipper (Cypripedium pubescens). Three such high quality segments occur between wetland F and wetland L along South Stanley Creek. High quality alluvial forests in the project corridor, with 25 to 35 inch dbh canopy trees, are located in two segments along Dutchmans Creek between Main Street and the Woodlawn Avenue pump station. The project will cause fragmentation of forests along 14,400 feet of corridor, and will disturb forest edge habitat along an additional 4,600 feet. The mowed corridor may promote the success of invasive exotic species such as Chinese privet and Japanese honeysuckle, and may deter certain wildlife species that require tracts of unbroken forest. Induced urban growth will cause further loss of natural communities. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. 5.14. Rare and Protected Species. The N.C. Natural Heritage Program has records of eighteen rare plant or animal species from Gaston County. Four of these are either federally protected (E or T), federal candidates (C 1 or C2), or state protected (E, T, or SC) (Table 2). For two of these species,the highfin carpsucker (Carpiodes yeller) and the bog turtle (Clemmys muhlenbergii), there is no suitable habitat in the project area, and no adverse impacts on these species are anticipated. Suitable habitat for the loggerhead shrike (Lanus ludovicianus) occurs in fields and pastures in the project area. No shrikes were detected during the field reconnaissance, and the project will not significantly reduce suitable habitat. 8 Marginally suitable habitat for Georgia aster(Aster georgianus) occurs along the edges of mesic-dry forests, including edges of road or utility rights-of-way. The field reconnaissance was too early in the season to reliably detect and identify Georgia aster. If present in the project area,construction may destroy some individuals, but will create additional forest edge habitat suitable for the species. Therefore, no adverse net impact is anticipated. One unprotected rare species was encountered, the bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla). A population of this tree occurs along a 3,500 foot segment of the project corridor between the Twin Brooks pump station and the mesic slope adjacent to wetland J (Figure 2c). The greatest density and largest specimens are in the 1,000 foot segment immediately north of the Duke Power/Gastonia raw water line ROW. Approximately fifty 4- to 15-inch dbh trees will be eliminated; saplings less than 4 inches dbh were not counted. Fewer and smaller specimens occur on the opposite bank of South Stanley Creek, but the project engineers determined that construction on this side may not be feasible due to the greater trench depth required. 6.0. MITIGATIVE MEASURES. The project engineers revised their preliminary sewer alignment following RJG&A's delineation of jurisdictional wetlands, so that the final proposed design avoids and minimizes wetland impacts to the extent practicable. Unavoidable impacts include disturbance of less than 1.0 acre of headwater wetlands, pending COE verification, and can be permitted under Section 404 Nationwide Permit 12 and its corresponding Section 401 General Water Quality Certification. Compensatory mitigation is not likely to be required, provided that conditions of the Nationwide Permit are met. Impacts of induced development will in part be mitigated by municipal and county water supply watershed protection ordinances. Other than the buffers required by these ordinances, which restrict construction but do not require maintenance of natural vegetation, no local program for riparian corridor protection exists. 9 7.0.

The schedule for the Project shall be established by the project engineer and shall be approved by the municipalities. The Town will have the right to inspect documents, . materials, papers and other related items at any point during the Project, with proper notification to the City, and the City shall have the project engineer provide copies of all correspondence, reports, documents and ocher related project materials to the Town. 3 . PROJECT ENGINEER: The municipalities approve the employment of the engineering firm of W. K. Dickson, Inc. as project engineer, and shall use said engineering firm or such other firm as the parties may hereafter agree. The Project Engineer selected by the parties must agree that engineering costs are "ultimately borne by Town and that the Project Engineer will not pursue reimbursement from City except tc the extent funds are provided to City from Town. 4. DESCRIPTION: The City agrees to construct or let contracts for the construction of the following described facilities : A. Sewer Lines of the approximate diameter and lineal feet as shown on Exhibit A. B. Master Meter: connection of the municipal sewer systems will be through a master meter near Highway 27 at or near the Duke Power right-of-way, south of the Twinbrook Industrial Park. C. Pump Stations : additions and improvements will be made to City' s existing wastewater pump stations located on Woodlawn Avenue and on Dutchman' s Creek. The pump stations will be enlarged and upgraded to accept the additional flow from Town and from increased needs in City' s service area. The approximate cost of such work is shown on Exhibit A. 5 . DESIGN: The proposed sewer lines, pump station improvements master meter, and appurtenances, shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the specifications of the municipalities. The project engineer shall be employed through the City to complete the design and specifications for the project and to conduct other related work necessary for the successful completion of the project. Plans and specifications shall be approved by the municipalities prior cc being let for bid. The City shall provide to the Town a cc=v of the contt= •_ r.^ plans and a set of as-built clan_ at the c:.acLe.ior. of :he Project. 3ids for the Project will not be awarded until reviewed and approved by both parties . 6 . _ =NANC=NG: A. The project cost for the aforementioned facilities is estimated to be two million, eight hundred thousand seven hundred ($2,800 ,700 .00 ) Dollars. The financing of the Project is to be provided solely by the Town and is contingent upon the Town obtaining the following agreements pertaining to financing: 1) The interlocal sewer interconnect agreement to be entered into by Gaston County and the Town. 2) Approval of the sewer interconnect by the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (NCDEHNR) Division of Environmental Management. 3 ) Funding approval by the Construction Grants and Loans Section of NCDEHNR Division of Environmental Management. B. City will not incur any expense regarding the design or construction of the Project, until the Town has provided 2 satisfactory evidence to City that Town has the availability of funds necessary to complete the Project and reimburse City for such expenses . During the performance of this agreement, the City will submit monthly payment requests to- the Town for reimbursement of eligible Project expenses, which Town will reimburse within thirty ( 30 ) days of receipt . All change orders will be approved by both municipalities. Eligible Project expenses shall _nclude design services, rights-of-way expenses, legal fees, and construction costs and other expenses reasonably necessary to carry out the terms of this agreement. Design services are to include preparing plans and specifications, surveying, easement mapping, contract administration and construction observation services. 7. CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND INSPECTION: Due to the funding_ of the Project, the Project will be developed according to the following guidelines: The City agrees to commence the Project within a reasonable time after execution of this Agreement. The Project schedule will be established by the Project Engineer and shall be approved by the Town and the City. The Town has bond funding which requires all money be spent and the Project closed out by May 31, 1998 . The City will schedule design, bidding and construction to complete all construction by December 31, 1997. 8. RIGHTS OF WAY: The City shall obtain all rights-of-way and encroachment agreements as necessary for that portion of the Project to be constructed east of the location of the Master Meter, and Town shall obtain all such rights-of-way and encroachment agreements for that portion west of _ e location of the Master Meter . ONN Rc--- , r=�_,:^ ... . AND MAINTZ 7=_NCE : ._ upon tt..t_ ct -r- ril of t_._ :rojec- , as cert- = a,' the Project EnginCer, Town shall own, operate and maintain chat portion of the Project lying west of the Master Meter. All other portions of the Project and appurtenances thereto including the Master Meter and pump stations shall be owned, operated, and maintained by City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if Town shall obtain funding which requires Town to retain ownership of the sewer .outfall line, then it is agreed that Town shall have ownership of said outfall line, which would otherwise belong to City, and shall lease the same to City for One ($1 . 00) Dollar per year until such time as Town may convey ownership of the same to City without violating the terms of its funding. The aforesaid sewer line will then be conveyed to City without charge. B. City shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to City or leased by City from Town. Town shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to Town and not leased to City, subject, however, to the service area limitations set forth in Paragraph 10 below. C. If either municipality shall hereafter annex a water or sewer customer then being served by the other municipality, then such annexing municipality must provide for such water and/or sewer service through its own facilities ( i . e. , sewer lines, pump stations ) within one (1 ) _Year of the effective date of such annexation. 10. WASTEWATER SERVICE AREA: It is agreed that wastewater passing through the master meter to be treated by the City shall only contain wastewater originating from sources within the resent or future corporate limits of the Town, the present or future extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town, and those sources presently served by the Town located outside both the present corporate and extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town. The Town agrees that at no time will it provide sewer service to any areas except those listed in this paragraph 10 if such service should generate wastewater flowing through the Master Meter to the City' s wastewater treatment facility, without prior written consent of City. 11. WASTEWATER TREATMENT: City presently utilizes approximately 65% of the treatment capacity at its existing wastewater treatment facility. City agrees that it will make available to Town under the terms of this agreement sufficient capacity at its present wastewater treatment plant to treat up to 200 ,000 gallons per day of wastewater from the Town. City further agrees not to unreasonably deny to Town additional treatment capacity within its current wastewater treatment plant, _:cvided that such additional wastewater does not jec:ard__e City' s capacity to provide service i_ then ex st _er7 area. flown agrees pay to C' ty for wastewater treatment at City' s present facility a _ate ecual co City' s inside sewer raze as ma'' he established by City from time to time. This race shall continue in effect until changed as hereinafter set forth. The City will provide meter readings to Town on or about the first day of each month f•,r the preceding month ' s usage, and Town will pay to the City its sewer charges within 15 days of the receipt of such billing. Any late payment not received 15 days of said billing will carry a. 1-1/2% late payment charge. 12. FUTURE EXPANSION OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: City' s current facility was completed in 1976.. Advances in wastewater treatment technology, additional treatment requirements proposed by the State, and increased demand are all factors to be considered by City regarding a future upgrade and expansion (hereafter referred to as "U&E") of its wastewater facility. The City proposes to expand and upgrade its facility when any of the following events occur: 1. The flow capacity of the facility reaches 90% of its capacity; 2. The City' s NPDES permit limits require an upgrade; 3 . Ac such other time as the City may deem it appropriate. Such a U&E would include but not be limited co those improvements set forth in a facilities study entitled "Wastewater Treatment Plan Expansion Study" , performed by W. K. Dickson, Engineers, dated January 1995 , a copy of which is retained by both parties. 13 . PARTICIPATION BY TOWN UPON U&E OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the City agrees to include in the U&E . 5 million gallons (or such greater amount as Town may request prior to preliminary design) of hydraulic capacity and a proportionate .share of the U&E treatment capacity (i.e. , capacity to treat BOD, TSS, nutrients, and other regulated constituents ) for use by Town, and Town agrees to accept and pay for the same under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. A. City will notify Town in writing at such time as City desires to begin engineering design for the U&E of its wastewater treatment plant. B. The portion of the U&E cost to be paid by Town will be equal to the product of the entire U&E cost multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is .5 million gallons per day (or such greater volume of capacity as Town may timely elect) , and the denominator of which is equal to the increased treatment capacity of the U&E (as compared to City' s present capacity per day a: its ^resent treatment facility) exmr=cc= :- million gallons per day. 3v way f9=t= -P , =an_a ' a a..a_c cf the :.&E cost would be ` 2 . according to the following example : (u&E cost) C_UM x 0 . 5 MGD ( reserve for Town ) = - 2. 0 MGD ( incr====^ caw. ) C. The Town shall pay to the. City the pro-rata share of each installment as the installments come due on City' s bond indebtedness incurred to construct the U&E. By way of illustration, if the U&E cost is $10 million and Town' s portion of these costs is $2.5 million, Town would pay to City twenty-five percent of each installment. If City should pay off the bond issue early, Town shall nevertheless continue to make installments according to the initial amortization schedule, unless the parties shall agree to a different amortization. Town may, however, pay off their portion of the indebtedness at any earlier date as Town may elect. D. Town' s rate for wastewater treatment by City shall be reduced from 125% of City's inside rate as the same may be changed from time to time to 100% of the City's 5 inside rate beginning on the first day of the utility • billing cycle immediately following Town' s first payment to City of its portion of City' s bond payment or at such time as the U&E is completed and in use, - - whichever shall occur first. Thereafter, Town' s rats shall continue to be 100% of the City' s inside rate as the same may be from time to time established until such time as Town has paid City for its portion of the plant OBE; thereafter the Town' s rate for sewer treatment by City will be 125% of the rate charged to City' s inside customers as the same may be from time to time established. In the event that Town should be in default of its obligation to pay its pro-rata share of each installment of the bond indebtedness, then Town' s rate during such default shall be increased to 125% of City' s inside rate, and City may, in addition, pursue such legal recourse as may be available to enforce the terms of this agreement. E. The parties expressly agree that Town will be paying a fractional amount as set forth above based upon the entire cost of the U&E and not solely the additional costs of including into the U&E Town' s reserved capacity. It is for this reason that the Town' s sewer rate charged by the City is dnr.-- =fed until such time as Town has paid for its portion of the Plant U&E. 14. TERM OF AGREEMENT: This agreement shall continue for a term of forty ( 40 ) years from and after the date of the execution hereof. 15 . SEWER USE REGULATIONS: Town agrees that it will keep i*h force at all times and enforce a Sewer Use Ordinance =crovec by -h= Sate of North Car a. Ttli = r.._- - :JCIl_ same or si iil-r that in ==-='-- -_T of Hou.= Hollv. At a1_ times during :his -:r==merit C_ will issue a sewer use cermit to Town in acoc__=....c with the C_=_i' s sewer use ordinance and recu_ation: and recuirements as may be :romulgated from time to time by the State of Nor_h Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (DEHNR) for significant industrial users as defined by the DEHNR. During the term of this Agreement, at Town' s election, City will administer Town's pretreatment program pertaining to those industries discharging sewer through the Master Meter to be treated by City. Town will reimburse City the reasonable cost associated with administering Town' s pretreament program. Town agrees to submit to the City all applications for industrial discharges which pass through the master meter to be treated by the City. No industrial discharge permits will be issued by Town until reviewed and approved by City. The City will review and approve or disapprove permits and, if necessary, perform a headworks analysis to determine the City' s ability to treat such wastewater within Town' s remaining reserved capacity. City will approve such permits 6 • if Town then has sufficient remaining treatment capacity within its reserve. The City will approve such permit on the same basis as it approves similar applications for permits by industrial users within the City of Mount Holly, taking in consideration the proportionate amount of the wastewater treatment capacity reserved by the City for the Town both relating to its current wastewater facility and any upgraded or expanded facility. City will not violate the provisions of this paragraph for any purpose including the purpose of inducing industries to locate within City. 16 . TOWN'S FUTURE SEWER NEEDS: At such future date as Town' s wastewater flow based on a yearly average exceeds 80% of the capacity purchased by Town in the U&E, then Town should undertake negotiations for additional treatment capacity. City will take in consideration any unused plant. -capacity then present within the U&E and the needs of City, Town, and any other parties sharing such capacity. City will thereupon allocate to Town such unused capacity as City may elect in its sole discretion. The rate for such additional capacity shall be negotiated between the parties . If such unused capacity is not sufficient to provide Town with sewer treatment commensurate with its demand, then City agrees to construct additional capacity at its wastewater facility prior to Town' s usage exceeding 90% of its reserved capacity in the U&E, provided that Town bear all expense relating to an additional U&E for Town' s benefit. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their duly authorized representatives the day and year first above written.

Box 29579 Engineers Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0579 Planners Surveyors Re: Town of Stanley Revised Engineering Amendment to the 201 Facilities Plan, Project No. E-SBF-T-95-0R20 WKD # 96451.10 I Dear Mr. Lucas: The following includes revisions to the 201 Facilities Plan (dated May 1996) prepared for the Town of Stanley. Changes are shown in bold Italic print. The selected 201 alternative recommended expanding the Town's wastewater treatment plant to 1.0 MGD to handle future capacity needs. The Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly in March 1996 entered into an intermunicipal agreement for Mount Holly to treat a portion of Stanley's wastewater at Mount Holly's treatment plant on the Catawba River. This will allow Stanley to reduce flow at their treatment facility and not expand the capacity of the plant. The agreement calls for Stanley to purchase 0.500 MGD of treatment capacity at the Mount Holly facility and construct a sewer interconnect between the two sewer systems to convey wastewater from Stanley to Mount Holly for treatment. The Town will also make several needed improvements at their wastewater treatment plant as a part of this engineering amendment. 201 AMENDMENT CHANGES The following 201 Amendment changes, dated May 1996, are included for the Town of Stanley: 1924 Cleveland Avenue OtherOffues Atlanta,GA Charlotte North Carolina 28203 Asheville.NC Hickory,NC 704 334-5348 Raleigh.NC FAX 704 334-0078 Columhia,SC Wastewater Treatment Plant (VWVfP): 1. NPDES Permit Flow. The Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant flow capacity will remain 0.500 million gallons per day (MGD). The following improvements are planned and are included in the 201 Amendment: 2. Aerobic Digester. A new aerobic digester (64 ft diameter with an 18 ft. side water depth) will be provided to replace the existing unit. The digester will provide stabilization and storage of sludge for 90 (plus) days at a 2% solids. Additional storage can be done in the existing sludge holding basin. 3. Aeration & Mixing. Replace the aeration basin aerators with two 25-hp floating aerators. Move the two existing 20-hp aerators to the sludge holding basin and provide four 20-hp flow directional mixers in the sludge holding basin. Any three of the 20-hp mixers will provide the mixing requirements with the fourth mixer used as backup. One of the existing 20-hp aerators will be available for backup should one of the 25-hp floating aerator be out of service. 4. Dechlorination Facilities. A sulfur Dioxide gaseous dechlorination system will be provide for the 0.5 MGD treatment capacity. Two 100 lbs/day feeders with accessory equipment and alarms will be provided. Piping and valve modifications will be made to the existing chlorine contact basin to segregate the basin into two separate basins. 5. Standby Power. Standby power for the plant, excluding auxiliary lighting or sludge treatment facilities will be added as required for dischargers to WS waters. 6. Influent Screening and Flow Measurina. Replacement equipment for the mechanical bar screen and flow measurement of the influent flows will be provided. 7. Mechanical Bar Screening. Replace the existing mechanical bar screen with a new unit. The WWTP upgrade will include modifications where possible to resolve short-circuiting problems in the final clarifiers identified by DEM staff. Estimated project cost of making the WWTP improvements is $1,312,500 (see Table 1). The estimate includes cost of construction, engineering and project contingencies. The estimate of engineering services also includes cost to date by the Town ($216,500) to expand the existing treatment plant. 3 TABLE 1 WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT PROJECT COST Construction: Mechanical Bar Screening 40,000 Influent Flow Measuring 8,000 Site Work 135,000 Aerators 35,000 Scum Removal Pumping 16,000 Sludge Meters 8,000 Aerobic Digester & Sludge Handling 475,000 Chlorination/Dechlorination 130,000 Structure Repairs 50,000 Standby Power 50.000 Total Construction $947,000 Engineering Services: Design & Survey Mapping 50,000 Construction Services 4,000 Engineering Services for 1.0 MGD Expansion 216.500 Total Engineering Services $270,500 Project Contingencies: $95.000 Total Project Cost: $1,312,500 Mount Holly/Stanley Sewer Interconnect: A new connecting outfall line is to be built between the Town of Stanley (Town) and the City of Mount Holly (City) to convey a portion of the Town's wastewater to the City's treatment plant for treatment. The improvements will include a new sewage pumping station, replacing two existing pumping station in the City's system. The upgrades will be sized for all of the Town's existing and twenty year projected flow plus existing and projected flows tributary to the new outfall in the Mount Holly system. The Town has entered into an agreement with the City to purchase 0.5 MGD of treatment capacity at the City's 4.0 MGD treatment plant located east of Mount Holly on the Catawba River. A copy of the agreement between the two municipalities is attached to the engineering amendment. The agreement has provisions for future additional treatment capacity purchase by the Town upon approval of both parties. 4 s ' REVISED PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Town operates a 500,000 gallon per day (GPD) wastewater treatment plant (WVVfP) located at the end of Lola Street northwest of the Town. The treatment plant is an activated sludge process, discharging treated effluent to Mauney Creek. Stanley will continue to treat most of its wastewater at the Town's treatment plant. The sewer interconnect will be built to the industrial areas along Highway 27 east of Stanley and will serve both industrial and residential areas. The outfall will be built to accommodate future extensions to pick up other areas of the Town's service area in the future. Long range all of the Town's wastewater could be discharged to the Mount Holly system with the Town's existing treatment plant retired or eliminated. It is the Town's plan to continue to operate the existing plant for some time into the future until either it is feasible to treat their wastewater at Mount Holly or future discharge limits to Mauney Creek make the discharge no longer feasible. Stanley's flow projections for the twenty-year planning period are revised to 0.860 MGD from a previously identified need of 1.148 MGD. This change reflects changes in industrial discharges effected by pretreatment and reuse of process water and a reduction in planned residential growth in areas adjacent to the Town's service area. This treatment capacity need can be met with the existing treatment capacity (0.5 MGD) and the purchased treatment capacity from Mount Holly (0.5 MGD). Table 2 (Revised) shows flow projection changes for the Town. Table 2a shows how the projected Stanley flows will be split between the Stanley WWTP and the sewer interconnect line to Mount Holly.

Flow projections for the Stanley WWTP show a need for 0.494 MGD of treatment capacity after interconnecting with the Mount Holly system. The total 20-year projected flow to the Mount Holly WWTP, including the 0.5 MGD of treatment capacity for Stanley, is 5.9 MGD. Flows at the Mount Holly WWTP currently average 2.7 MGD. Current treatment capacity is 4.0 MGD. The interconnect outfall will be sized for the Town of Stanley's total projected flow for a 20-year design. The interconnect sewers are sized for the total average daily flow(ADF) so the pipe will flow approximately 1/2 full at the design loading. The sewer sizing was evaluated to verify the sizing will carry the Peak flow(with a 2.5 peaking factor). The sizing criteria was reviewed with the Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly. The new outfall and pumping station will include the following.

Projected funding is available as follows: State Bond Loan $3.0985 million Gaston County $2.800 million (see note) Town GO Bond $0.700 million Note: The County has agreed to fund the project with 10 annual payments ($280,000/year) over the next 10-years. Excess funds (over the $4.686 million projected cost) will be used by the Town to purchase treatment plant capacity at the Mount Holly WWTP when the plant is expanded. Expansion is projected to occur within 4 to 6 years. JUSTIFICATION The Stanley treatment plant is currently operating at 92% of its rated treatment capacity.

Estimated cost to expand the treatment plant is $3,006,400. Waste flow reduction is not achievable in a growing economy. Stanley has chosen to reduce flow at the treatment plant with an intergovernmental agreement with Mount Holly to treat up to 0.5 MGD of wastewater. It is advantageous for Stanley to purchase wastewater treatment capacity from Mount Holly in lieu of expanding their own facility. It is increasingly uneconomical for the Town to operate its own wastewater treatment facilities. Consolidation of these activities with the City of Mount Holly is not only financially sound, but furthers regional concepts of consolidation of small wastewater discharges into larger regional facilities, reducing the total number of discharges. The sewer interconnect option offers the Town the option to purchase additional treatment capacity at Mount Holly in the future. This option is a hedge against future treatment regulation changes which are increasingly difficult for small treatment operations like Stanley to comply. The estimated project cost of the sewer interconnect with Mount Holly, including outfalls and pumping station is $3,412,300. The sewer interconnect offers the additional advantage of eliminating four existing sewage pumping stations, two in the Stanley system and two in the Mount Holly system. The wastewater in Stanley is currently pumped two to three times before reaching the treatment plant. With the sewer interconnect the wastewater will be handled by gravity. The sewer interconnect will reduce the amount of wastewater to be handled at the Town's West Chestnut Street pumping station which now is a major pumping station in the system and experiences overloads during peak flow periods. In the Mount Holly system, the interconnect project will replace two older pumping stations in their system with one larger pumping station. COST EFFECTIVENESS: Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require expansion of the treatment plant and advanced level of treatment required to discharge at the larger flows into a low flow stream. Sewer Interconnect. Three sewer interconnect options were evaluated. All three options conveys wastewater by gravity sewer between Stanley near Highway 27 to the Mount Holly system. Option I requires two new pumping stations in the Mount Holly system to replace two older stations. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be replaced. Option II requires construction of a new pump station near the existing Dutchman Creek pump station near NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be rebuilt with larger pumps and a new force main 9 • across Dutchman Creek to a new gravity sewer. The existing Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option Ill requires a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchman Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Projected construction cost of the three options are: Option I $2,866,600 Option II $2,934,100 Option Ill $2,817,400 Option III was found to have the least present worth cost of all three options. The present worth analysis were made using a discount rate of 7.75% and associated compound interest factors.

Option Ill was selected as the sewer interconnect alternative for economic reasons. Option Ill is less expensive to build and operating one pumping station require less maintenance and operation cost over Options I and II. 10 USER FEES Sewer revenue needs upon initial start-up will be $917,400 per year or $76,450 per month. Currently, 35 percent of the Town's sewer revenues come from its residential customers. Assuming this pattern continues, the monthly sewer revenues which must be generated from residential customers would be: $76,450/month x 35% = $26,663/month Based on current population projections, there should be approximately 1,060 residential accounts at start-up. Monthly sewer cost for a residential user would be: $26,663/month / 1,060 customers = $25.24/month The Town's sewer user charge for FY 1996/1997 is $7.50 for the first 3,000 gallons plus $3.50 for each additional thousand gallons of usage. Therefore, the current sewer user charge for a residential customer using 5,000 gallons per month is $14.50 per month. When the Town must provide their share of the cost for the future Mount Holly WWTP expansion in FY 2002/2003, residential sewer user fees (for 5,000 gallons of usage) are projected to increase to $24.05 per month. This rate projection reflects an average annual increase in revenue needs of 3% for the period plus increased cost for the WWTP expansion debt payments and Mount Holly user charges for treating the Town's wastewater. The anticipated schedule for the Mount Holly WWTP expansion start-up is FY 2002/2003. ENVIRONMENTAL CORRIDOR An Environmental Assessment, prepared by Robert J.

Lucas : I am writing in reference to the June 28 , 1996 review comments to the Engineering Amendment prepared by W. K. Dickson. Item 16 evokes several issues relative to the agreement between the Town of Stanley and The City of Mount Holly which I wish to explain. The Town and the City have an agreement whereby the Town will provide 100% of the financing of the interconnect project and the City will prepare the plans and specifications and take the lead to construct the interconnect facilities . This arrangement was made with the realization that the majority of the facilities will be located within the City' s service area and the Town had prior arrangements for a State Loan through the Construction Grants and Loans (CG&L) office. The Town has sole responsibility for financing the project and through the intermunicipal agreement will retain ownership of the outfall until the State Loan is repaid. Section 13 . on page 5 of the agreement , includes provision for the Town to purchase 500, 000 gallons per day of capacity in the expanded capacity of the City' s WWTP. The agreement for 200, 000 gpd of treatment capacity applies only until the City' s plant is expanded or until the Town requests additional treatment capacity at the Mount Holly facility. We are aware the overall project costs included in the • intermunicipal agreement are estimates of probable cost and are subject to change until the project is bid and construction contracts are executed. The latest estimates of project costs , included in the August 1996 revisions . are $3 . 417 million for the sewer interconnect and $1 . 323 million for the proposed improvements at the Town' s wastewater treatment plant .

We will send a final copy after the County completes their budget planning work. We feel the intermunicipal agreement addresses the comments in your June 28. 1996 letter and does not require revision by the two municipalities . The Town also gave the CG&L office draft copies of the agreement for review prior to adoption by the Stanley and Mount Holly Boards . The CG&L office made no comments at that time.

The Town of Stanley proposes to construct a wastewater collection and pumping system along South Stanley Creek and Dutchmans Creek in northeastern Gaston County, North Carolina (Figure 1). The project will connect the Stanley sewer system with the Mount Holly system, and the wastewater will be treated and discharged at the Mount Holly WWTP on the Catawba River. The proposed facilities include a 2.7 MGD pump station located adjacent to Alsace Mill between Alsace Street and Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly, 27,300 feet of gravity sewer from four existing pump stations to the proposed Alsace Mill pump station, and 1,400 feet of force main paralleling the lowermost (southeastern) portion of the gravity sewer. The existing pump stations (Dutchmans Creek, Woodlawn Avenue, Twin Brooks Drive, and Jackson Park) will be abandoned. The proposed force main will discharge to an existing force main at the intersection of NC-27 and NC-273 Bypass (Figures 2a-d). 2.0. PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT. The Town of Stanley wishes to direct industrial, commercial, and residential development along NC-27 southeast of town. The existing Stanley WWTP (0.5 MGD) on Mauney Creek is in a separate drainage basin and would require significant pumping costs. Future expansion of Stanley's WWTP capacity is constrained by the high cost of treatment required by the state to discharge into a small stream. Stanley purchased an agreement from Mount Holly to provide 0.5 MGD of wastewater treatment at Mount Holly's 4.0 MGD WWTP on the Catawba River. The Mount Holly WWTP is better suited for accommodating future expansion than the Stanley WWTP. The project will also serve western Mount Holly and allow both municipalities to provide sewer service to the extraterritorial land between them. The project will ultimately accommodate a wastewater flow of 2.7 MGD, provided that sufficient WWTP capacity is made available. 3.0. EXISTING ENVIRONMENT. 3.1. Geology and Soils. The project area is in the Charlotte Belt of the Piedmont physiographic province, with a prevalence of metamorphosed quartz diorite, granitic rock, and felsic metavolcanic rock (N.C. Division of Land Resources, 1985). Elevations range from 740 feet above mean sea level at the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to 580 feet on Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly. The prevalent soils are Chewacla loam, Helena sandy loam, Winnsboro loam, Wilkes loam, Gaston sandy clay loam, and Pacolet sandy loam (Woody, 1989). 1 3.2. Existing Land Use. The proposed Alsace Mill pump station will be located above the 100-year flood elevation in a grassed area adjacent to Alsace Mill. Of the 27,300 feet of proposed sewerline corridor, 17% is forest edge adjacent to existing dirt roads or utility lines, 53% is unbroken forest, 16% is-shrub and sapling thicket, 13% is paved or grassed, and 1% comprises stream crossings. Habitat types are described in detail in section 3.6 and Table 1. The proposed wastewater service area beyond the Mount Holly city limits are sparsely developed. 3.3. Water Resources. Surface waters include Dutchmans Creek, its tributary South Stanley Creek, and an unnamed tributary of South Stanley Creek,in the Catawba River(Lake Wylie) watershed. The stream banks are forested along most segments. South Stanley Creek and its tributary have mixed sand, gravel, cobble, and bedrock substrata, with numerous riffles. Dutchmans Creek has a flatter gradient and a predominantly sandy bottom, with few riffles. All streams in the project area are classified WS-IV by the N.C. Division of Environmental Management (DEM). The WS-IV Critical Area for Lake Wylie begins on Dutchmans Creek immediately upstream of NC-273 Bypass, which is the downstream end of the project area. Groundwater aquifers in the project area are classified as MIF (Metaigneous Felsic) and Mil (Metaigneous Intermediate), with average well yields of 18 to 19 gallons per minute (Daniel & Payne, 1990). 3.4. Jurisdictional Wetlands. RJG&A ecologists Gerald Pottern and Patrick McMillan delineated jurisdictional wetlands in the project corridor during April and May, 1996, using the 1987 COE Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987)and supplementary technical criteria for hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and hydrology indicators. Twelve jurisdictional wetlands were located along South Stanley Creek upstream of SR 1923 and its unnamed tributary (Figures 2b-d). The drainage basin area of South Stanley Creek at the SR 1923 bridge is 4.38 square miles, and the wetlands upstream of this point are headwater wetlands. No wetlands were encountered along Dutchmans Creek or the lower portion of South Stanley Creek. Eleven of the twelve wetlands are forested floodplain depression wetlands, with canopies containing green ash, river birch, water oak, shagbark hickory, American elm, sweetgum, sycamore, and red maple. The understory shrubs include saplings of the canopy species, musclewood, Chinese privet, spicebush, silky dogwood, tag alder, elderberry, black willow, winterberry, arrowwood, and box elder. Dominant vines and herbs include common greenbrier, poison ivy, Virginia creeper, blackberry,sedges,soft rush, false nettle,jewelweed, coneflower, turtlehead, cane, horsetail, sensitive fern, and southern lady fern. 2 • The twelfth and lowermost wetland (F) is a marsh created by impoundment of an intermittent stream for erosion control adjacent to a quarry. It supports shrub and vine thickets containing tag alder, elderberry, black willow, buttonbush, swamp rose, and blackberry; and an herb layer of Japanese grass,wingstem,thoroughworts, sedges,soft rush, arrowhead, cattail, spikerush, and jewelweed. 3.5. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fishes were sampled on 17 April 1996 with a 10-foot long, 3/16-inch mesh seine. The dominant fish species in South Stanley Creek at SR 1923 were sandbar shiner, redlip shiner, yellowfin shiner, greenhead shiner, rosyside dace, bluehead chub, striped jumprock,speckled killifish, redbreast sunfish, and tesselated darter. Dominant fishes in Dutchmans Creek upstream of Main Street included sandbar shiner, spottail shiner,fieryblack shiner,whitefin shiner,bluehead chub,largemouth bass,white bass, bluegill, redbreast sunfish, gizzard shad, Piedmont darter, and seagreen darter. 3.6. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Floodplain and upland forested habitats in the project area are categorized below by the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NHP) community classification system (Schafale and Weakley, 1990). The floodplain forests consist of Levee Forest on well drained sand adjacent to Dutchmans Creek and the lower half of South Stanley Creek, Bottomland Forest on poorly drained silty soils behind levees, and Alluvial Forest along smaller streams where no levee has formed. Dominant canopy trees in floodplain forests include the species listed in floodplain depression wetlands in section 3.4, plus those less tolerant of prolonged saturation such as bladdernut, carrionflower, southern sugar maple, and flowering dogwood. Upland forests consist of Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest on moist acidic slopes, Basic Mesic Hardwood Forest on basic or mafic moist slopes, and Dry-Mesic Oak/Hickory Forest on drier slopes and upland ridges. The mesic forests are dominated by beech, northern red oak, water oak, southern sugar maple, red maple, sweetgum, tulip poplar, shagbark hickory, mockernut hickory, silverbell, and bigleaf magnolia. The basic forest supports a greater abundance and diversity of herbaceous species than does the acidic type. The dry-mesic forest contains primarily white oak, southern red oak, scarlet oak, sourwood, and various hickories, and a sparse herb layer. 4.0. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS. 4.1 . No-Action Alternative. The no-action alternative would constrain development along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly to low density uses that can dispose of wastewater through septic systems. This condition is undesirable for economic reasons, and the high failure rate of such systems. 3 4.2. Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require WWTP expansion, excessive pumping costs, and advanced level of treatment required for discharging large volumes of wastewater into a stream with very low flow,as discussed in Section 2.0. This option was rejected as the most expensive build alternative. 4.3. Stanley to Mount Holly Interconnector. Three Stanley to Mount Holly wastewater interconnector alternatives were evaluated. All include a new gravity sewer from the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to the confluence of Dutchmans Creek and Taylor Creek in Mount Holly, and allow the existing Dutchmans Creek, Jackson Creek, and Twin Brooks pump stations to be abandoned. Option I requires construction of two new pump stations; one on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek at its confluence with Taylor Creek, and one on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option II requires construction of a new pump station on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be retained, and a new force main built across Dutchmans Creek connecting it to the new gravity sewer along the northeast bank. The existing Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option Ill requires construction of a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. A gravity sewer alignment adjacent to the existing sewer along the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek was considered, but determined impractical due to steep slopes, bedrock, and the greater trench depth required. 4.4. Selection of the Preferred Alternative. Both the no-action and Stanley WWTP expansion alternatives were rejected for economic reasons. Of the Stanley to Mount Holly interconnector alternatives, option Ill was selected as the preferred alternative. It requires two new crossings of Dutchmans Creek, one new pump station, and eliminates four existing pump stations. Options I and II require maintenance of two pump stations, and option II also requires an additional Dutchmans Creek crossing. Option I includes a force main, rather than gravity sewer, from the mouth of Taylor Creek to the lower end of the project, and would allow preservation of a wider forested buffer along Dutchmans Creek. The project engineers determined that the environmental benefits of a wider buffer do not justify the higher construction and maintenance costs or the increased risk of blockage or mechanical failure at the two new pump stations. 4 5.0. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES. 5.1. Land Use Changes. Based on a 40-foot wide construction corridor, the project will disturb 25 acres, including 16 acres of forest. The remaining acreage is previously disturbed land including road and utility rights-of-way, lawns, pasture, old fields, and cutover land. A 20-foot wide permanent access corridor will be maintained by periodic mowing. Secondary and cumulative impacts of induced urban growth may affect land use throughout the South Stanley Creek and Taylor Creek watersheds. The major changes will be along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly, where industrial park development is under way. The DEM-mandated local watershed protection ordinances (Stanley, Mount Holly, and Gaston County) will regulate the density and types of new development in those areas within WS-IV watersheds, as discussed in section 5.8. 5.2. Prime and Unique Farmland. Most of the project corridor is either frequently flooded or too steep to qualify as prime farmland. Chewacla loam is a prime farmland soil only where it is drained and protected from flooding or not frequently flooded during the growing season. Chewacla loam is the most abundant soil mapped in the project corridor, but there are no flood control dams in or upstream of the project area. Helena sandy loam and Winnsboro loam are prime farmland soils where they occur on slopes less than 8 percent, including a 2,500 foot segment between the Jackson Park pump station and NC-27, and a few small areas along South Stanley Creek. None of these areas was in cultivation during the field reconnaissance (April to May, 1996). Following construction, areas of prime farmland soils will continue to be suitable for agriculture except for the small areas occupied by manholes. Loss of prime farmland soils to induced urban development in the wastewater service area is likely to occur. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. • 5.3. Public, Scenic, and Recreational Lands. A ball field and playground on the north bank of South Stanley Creek east of SR 1923 is the only dedicated public recreational area in the project corridor. Use of this facility will be interrupted during construction, but no long-term impacts are expected. Dutchmans Creek is a popular bank fishing stream for largemouth bass, redbreast sunfish, catfish, and white bass during their spring spawning migration, according to local anglers. The segment most heavily fished extends from the Main Street bridge in Mount Holly to the mouth of Dutchmans Creek. Fishing access from Main Street to NC-273 Bypass may be temporarily interrupted during construction, but no long-term direct impacts of the project are anticipated. Induced urban growth, however, may adversely affect fish habitat and public access to Dutchmans Creek, as discussed in section 5.12. 5 5.4. Archaeological and Historical Resources. No archaeological or historical inventory of the project corridor has been conducted. The State Historic Preservation Office, N.C. Department of Cultural Resources,will determine whether further information is required. 5.5. Air Quality. An increase in airborne particulates and exhaust emissions from construction vehicles will occur during construction, but the public health impacts of these emissions will be negligible. No operational air quality impacts of the project are anticipated. The wastewater pump station will be located 200 feet or more from the nearest residence. Induced urban growth will result in increased air pollutant emissions from vehicles and certain industrial activities. Gaston County has exceeded EPA threshold criteria for air pollutants during previous years, and requires annual emission testing of gasoline fueled vehicles. 5.6. Noise Levels. Residents adjacent to the project corridor may experience nuisance noise levels during construction, which will be limited to daylight hours. Operational noise of the facility will be negligible. Induced urban growth will cause an increase in noise from vehicles and construction activities. Residences along NC-27 are most likely to be affected. 5.7. Groundwater Resources. The project area is almost entirely impervious, and all rainfall on the site is transported through storm drains to surface streams. No impacts of the project on groundwater recharge are anticipated. 5.8. Surface Water Resources. Project construction will cause a temporary increase in turbidity and sediment load in adjacent streams. These impacts will be minimized by employing standard erosion control practices. An Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan will be submitted to the DEHNR Mooresville Regional Office for approval at least 30 days prior to construction. No direct adverse operational impacts of the project on water quality are anticipated. Impacts of the Mount Holly WWTP effluent on Lake Wylie are regulated by specific limits established in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 6 The project will deter new septic systems and reduce the number of existing ones in the wastewater service area. Failing septic systems are a common source of surface water pollution, especially in areas of clayey soils. Induced urban growth may adversely affect surface water quality in several ways. An increase in impervious surface area causes a corresponding increase in peak-stormflows, exacerbating channel erosion. Base flows during dry weather are subsequently reduced, causing small perennial streams to become intermittent,concentrating pollutants,and creating high temperature and low-oxygen conditions. Destruction of riparian forests, culverts, drainage improvements,and artificial channel stabilization may also contribute to water quality degradation. 5.9. Introduction of Toxic Substances. Potential sources of toxic substances during construction may include exhaust emissions, oil, fuel, and other vehicle fluids. There are no known petroleum storage tanks or facilities containing hazardous materials to be removed in the project area. No releases of toxic substances are anticipated from operation of the project. 5.10. Eutrophication of Receiving Waters. Nutrient loading to streams in the project area may temporarily increase due to soil erosion during construction, but should be negligible provided that erosion control practices are followed. In flowing streams, most sediment-associated nutrients remain bound to clay particles where they contribute little to eutrophication. These nutrients generally become bioavailable when they settle into the anaerobic hypolimnion of a seasonally stratified pond or reservoir, such as Lake Wylie located one mile downstream of the project. Any additional nutrient loading impacts from project construction will be negligible. Nutrient loading from the Mount Holly WWTP is controlled by effluent limits specified in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 5.11 . Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters. The final alignment best avoids the twelve wetlands in the project area. Preliminary calculations indicate that the unavoidable wetland area affected is less than one acre, pending COE verification. Following construction, wetlands will be restored to pre-construction grade, and the permanent mowed access corridor limited to 10 feet wide. Anti-seep collars will be installed per DEM specifications to prevent the gravel-filled trench from draining the wetlands. Induced development will cause further loss and degradation of wetlands throughout the project service area. The rate and distribution of such losses cannot be predicted. 7 • 5.12. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fish and other aquatic organisms may be temporarily affected by elevated silt loading, turbidity, and silt-associated pollutants during construction. Clearing of riparian forests along segments where steep slopes or other design factors preclude the preservation of a wide buffer may cause permanent changes in stream habitat and water quality, thereby affecting fish populations. Induced development may further degrade aquatic habitats as discussed in section 5.8. 5.13. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Habitat types disturbed by project construction are summarized in Table 1. The natural forested community types are described in section 3.6. High quality mesic forests in the project area contain canopy trees averaging 25 to 35 inches diameter at breast height (dbh) and regionally rare species such as bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla), nodding trillium (Trillium rugelli) and yellow lady slipper (Cypripedium pubescens). Three such high quality segments occur between wetland F and wetland L along South Stanley Creek. High quality alluvial forests in the project corridor, with 25 to 35 inch dbh canopy trees, are located in two segments along Dutchmans Creek between Main Street and the Woodlawn Avenue pump station. The project will cause fragmentation of forests along 14,400 feet of corridor, and will disturb forest edge habitat along an additional 4,600 feet. The mowed corridor may promote the success of invasive exotic species such as Chinese privet and Japanese honeysuckle, and may deter certain wildlife species that require tracts of unbroken forest. Induced urban growth will cause further loss of natural communities. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. 5.14. Rare and Protected Species. The N.C. Natural Heritage Program has records of eighteen rare plant or animal species from Gaston County. Four of these are either federally protected (E or T), federal candidates (C 1 or C2), or state protected (E, T, or SC) (Table 2). For two of these species, the highfin carpsucker (Carpiodes velifer) and the bog turtle (Clemmys muh/enbergii), there is no suitable habitat in the project area, and no adverse impacts on these species are anticipated. Suitable habitat for the loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) occurs in fields and pastures in the project area. No shrikes were detected during the field reconnaissance, and the project will not significantly reduce suitable habitat. 8 • Marginally suitable habitat for Georgia aster(Aster georgianus) occurs along the edges of mesic-dry forests, including edges of road or utility rights-of-way. The field reconnaissance was too early in the season to reliably detect and identify Georgia aster. If present in the project area,construction may destroy some individuals, but will create additional forest edge habitat suitable for the species. Therefore, no adverse net impact is anticipated. One unprotected rare species was encountered, the bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla). A population of this tree occurs along a 3,500 foot segment of the project corridor between the Twin Brooks pump station and the mesic slope adjacent to wetland J (Figure 2c). The greatest density and largest specimens are in the 1,000 foot segment immediately north of the Duke Power/Gastonia raw water line ROW. Approximately fifty 4- to 15-inch dbh trees will be eliminated; saplings less than 4 inches dbh were not counted. Fewer and smaller specimens occur on the opposite bank of South Stanley Creek, but the project engineers determined that construction on this side may not be feasible due to the greater trench depth required. 6.0. MITIGATIVE MEASURES. The project engineers revised their preliminary sewer alignment following RJG&A's delineation of jurisdictional wetlands, so that the final proposed design avoids and minimizes wetland impacts to the extent practicable. Unavoidable impacts include disturbance of less than 1.0 acre of headwater wetlands, pending COE verification, and can be permitted under Section 404 Nationwide Permit 12 and its corresponding Section 401 General Water Quality Certification. Compensatory mitigation is not likely to be required, provided that conditions of the Nationwide Permit are met. Impacts of induced development will in part be mitigated by municipal and county water supply watershed protection ordinances. Other than the buffers required by these ordinances, which restrict construction but do not require maintenance of natural vegetation, no local program for riparian corridor protection exists. 9 • 7.0.

A. The project cost for the aforementioned facilities is estimated to be two million, eight hundred thousand seven hundred ( $2, 800 ,700 .00 ) Dollars. The financing of the Project is to be provided solely by the Town and is contingent upon the Town obtaining the following agreements pertaining to financing: 1) The interlocal sewer interconnect agreement to be entered into by Gaston County and the Town. 2) Approval of the sewer interconnect by the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (NCDEHNR) Division of Environmental Management. 3 ) Funding approval by the Construction Grants and Loans Section of NCDEHNR Division of Environmental Management. B . City will not incur any expense regarding the design or construction of the Project, until the Town has provided 2 satisfactory evidence to City chat Town has the availability of funds necessary to complete the Project and reimburse City for such expenses . During the performance of this agreement, the City will submit monthly payment requests co- the Town for reimbursement of eligible Project expenses, which Town will reimburse within thirty ( 30) days of receipt. All change orders will be approved by both municipalities. Eligible Project expenses shall include design services , rights-of-way expenses , legal fees, and construction costs and other expenses reasonably necessary to carry out the terms of this agreement. Design services are to include preparing plans and specifications, surveying, easement mapping, contract administration and construction observation services. 7. CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND INSPECTION: Due to the funding_ of the Project, the Project will be developed according to the following guidelines: The City agrees to commence the Project within a reasonable time after execution of this Agreement. The Project schedule will be established by the Project Engineer and shall be approved by the Town and the City. The Town has bond funding which requires all money be spent and the Project closed out by May 31, 1998 . The City will schedule design, bidding and construction to complete all construction by December 31, 1997. 8 . RIGHTS OF WAY: The City shall obtain all rights-of-way and encroachment agreements as necessary for that portion of the Project to be constructed east of the location of the Master Meter, and Town shall obtain all such rights-of-way and encroachment agreements for that portion west of the _ocatior. of :he : F...a.ter Meter . Cyy'NE .S -- C.-=....:_.... . ND MA .'TrNA C---: A. :ton ..�.....- c: _ -r r�r: of ....e ? ro_ec_ , as Cer-: _ ar` the Project Engineer , Town shall own, operate and maintain that portion of the Project lying west of the Master Meter. All other portions of the Project and appurtenances thereto including the Master Meter and pump stations shall be owned, operated, and maintained by City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if Town shall obtain funding which requires Town to retain ownership of the sewer .outfall line, then it is agreed that Town shall have ownership of said outfall line, which would otherwise belong to City, and shall lease the same to City for One ($1 . 00 ) Dollar per year . until such time as Town may convey ownership of the same to ' City without violating the terms of its funding. The aforesaid sewer line will then be conveyed to City without charge. B. City shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to City or leased by City from Town. Town shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to Town and not leased to City, - 3 subject, however, to the service area limitations set forth in Paragraph 10 below. C. If either municipality shall hereafter annex a water or sewer customer then being served by the other municipality, then such annexing municipality must provide for such water and/or sewer service through its own facilities ( i . e. , sewer lines, pump stations ) within one (1 ) year of the eff —= vn date of such annexation. 10 . WASTEWATER SERVICE AREA: It is agreed that wastewater passing through the master meter to be treated by the City shall only contain wastewater originating from sources within the resent or future corporate limits of the Town, the present or future extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town, and those sources presently served by the Town located outside bcth the present corporate and extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town. The Town agrees that at no time will it provide sewer service to any areas except those listed in this paragraph 10 if such service should generate wastewater flowing through the Master Meter to the City' s wastewater treatment facility, without prior written consent of City. 11. WASTEWATER TREATMENT: City presently utilizes approximately 65% of the treatment capacity at its existing wastewater treatment facility. City agrees chat it will make available to Town under the terms of this agreement sufficient capacity at its present wastewater treatment plant to treat up to 200 ,000 gallons per day of wastewater from the Town. City further agrees not to unreasonably deny to Town additional treatment capacity within its current wastewater treatment+ silt, _rcvidad chat such additional :vaszewa=- does not jec ar -i__ ' s capacity cc orcv_oe ser i _c_ -_ its then a li st_.nc 59r7 Town agreestc ca7 -o City' s present ==," 1 - _y a ecual __ City' s inside sewer rate as may Ca established tv City from time co time . This rate stall continue in effect until changed as hereinafter set forth. The City will provide meter readings to Town on or about the first day of each month f.lr the preceding month ' s usage, and Town will pay to the City its sewer charges within 15 days of the receipt of such billing. Any late payment not received 15 days of said billing will carry a. 1-1/2% late payment charge. 12 . FUTURE EXPANSION OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: City' s current facility was completed in 1976 .. Advances in wastewater treatment technology, additional treatment requirements proposed by the State, and increased demand are all factors to be considered by City regarding a future upgrade and expansion ( hereafter referred to as "U&E" ) of its wastewater facility. The City proposes to expand and upgrade its facility when any of the following events occur: 1. The flow capacity of the facility reaches 90% of its capacity; 2. The City' s NPDES permit limits require an upgrade; 3 . At such other time as the City may deem it appropriate. Such a U&E would include but not be limited to chose improvements set forth in a facilities study entitled "Wastewater Treatment Plan Expansion Study" , performed by W. K . Dickson, Engineers, dated January 1995 , a copy of which is retained by both parties . 13 . PARTICIPATION BY TOWN UPON U&E OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the City agrees to include in the U&E . 5 million gallons (or such greater amount as Town may request prior to preliminary design) of hydraulic capacity and a proportionate .share of the U&E treatment capacity (i.e. , capacity to treat BOD, TSS, nutrients, and other regulated constituents ) for use by Town, and Town agrees to accept and pay for the same under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. A. City will notify Town in writing at such time as City desires to begin engineering design for the U&E of its wastewater treatment plant. B. The portion of the U&E cost to be paid by Town will be equal to the product of the entire U&E cost multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is . 5 million gallons per day (or such greater volume of capacity as Town may timely elect) , and the denominator of which is equal to the increased treatment capacity of the U&E ( as compared to City' s present capacity per day at its ;resent treatmentfacility) expressed _n mill .. cacns 'tee- day. By way C_ -..: ua: cost .vCu_.. to 2 • .. .. acC0r f_nC to the f cCwing exam pie : ( .'&E cost ) C_JM x O ^GD ( reserve for Town ) = 2 . 0 ?!GD ( increased cap . ) C. The Town shall pay to the . City the pro-raca share of each installment as the installments come due on City' s bond indebtedness incurred to construct the U&E. By way of illustration, if the U&E cost is $10 million and Town' s portion of these costs is $2. 5 million, Town would pay to City twenty-five percent of each installment. If City should pay off the bond issue early, Town shall nevertheless continue to make installments according to the initial amortization schedule, unless the parties shall agree to a different amortization. Town may, however, pay off their portion of the indebtedness ac any earlier date as Town may elect. D. Town' s rate for wastewater treatment by City shall be reduced from 125% of City' s inside rate as the same may be changed from time to time to 100% of the City's — - - 5 inside rate beginning on the first day of the utility billing cycle immediately following Town' s first payment to City of its portion of City' s bond payment or at such time as the U&E is completed and in use, - - whichever shall occur first. Thereafter, Town' s rate shall continue to be 100% of the City' s inside rate as the same may be from time to time established until such tine as Town has paid City for its portion of the plant U&E thereafter the Town' s rate for sewer treatment by City will be 125% of the rate charged to City' s inside customers as the same may be from time to time established. In the event that Town should be in default of its obligation to pay its pro-rata share of each installment of the bond indebtedness, then Town' s rate during such default shall be increased to 125% of City' s inside rate, and City may, in addition, pursue such legal recourse as may be available to enforce the terms of this agreement. E. The parties expressly agree that Town will be paving a fractional amount as set forth above based upon the entire cost of the U&E and not solely the additional costs of including into the U&E Town' s reserved capacity. It is for this reason that the Town' s sewer rats charged by the City is decreased until such time as Town has paid for its portion of the Plant U&E. 14 . TERM OF AGREEMENT: This agreement shall continue for a term of forty ( 40 ) years from and after the date of the execution hereof. 15 . SEWER USE REGULATIONS: Town agrees that it will keep in force at all Limes and enforce a Sewer Use Ordinance - .-.roved •V`� -..e S 'a e c= Nor' h Card ina.

During the term of this Agreement, at Town' s election, City will administer Town' s pretreatment program pertaining to those industries discharging sewer through the Master Meter to be treated by City. Town will reimburse City the reasonable cost associated with administering Town' s pretreament program. Town agrees to submit to the City all applications for industrial discharges which pass through the master meter to be treated by the City. No industrial discharge permits will be issued by Town until reviewed and approved by City. The City will review and approve or disapprove permits and, if necessary, perform a headworks analysis to determine the City' s ability to treat such wastewater within Town' s remaining reserved capacity. City will approve such permits 6 • if Town then has sufficient remaining treatment capacity within its reserve. The City will approve such permit on the same basis as it apuroves similar applications for permits by industrial users within the City of Mount Holly, taking in consideration the proportionate amount of the wastewater treatment capacity reserved by the City for the Town both relating to its current wastewater facility and any upgraded or expanded facility. City will not violate the provisions of this paragraph for any purpose including the purpose of inducing industries to locate within City. 16 . TOWN' S FUTURE SEWER NEEDS : At such future date as Town's wastewater flow based on a yearly average exceeds 80% of the capacity purchased by Town in the U&E, then Town should undertake negotiations for additional treatment capacity. City will take in consideration any unused plant. -capacity then present within the U&E and the needs of City, Town, and any other parties sharing such capacity. City will thereupon allocate to Town such unused capacity as City may elect in its sole discretion. The rate for such additional capacity shall be negotiated between the parties . If such unused capacity is not sufficient to provide Town with sewer treatment commensurate with its demand, then City agrees to construct additional capacity at its wastewater facility prior to Town' s usage exceeding 90% of its reserved capacity in the U&E, provided that Town bear all expense relating to an additional U&E for Town' s benefit. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their duly authorized representatives the day and year first above written. CITY OF ' CUNT HOLLY ./c _ rank 7 .

The unspecified industrial growth(part g) figure of 42,110 gpd is incorrect and should be 37,610 gpd. This figure can be calculated by adding the existing residential, commercial, and industrial (parts a, b, and c) and multiplying the total by 0.10. As a result of this change, the total engineering amendment 20-year design flow should be 849,880 gpd or 0.850 mgd. 2. Please identify how the flows will be split between the existing Stanley WWTP and the sewer transport line to Mt. Holly. Confirm that the flow will be split in such a manner as to not overload the Stanley WWTP. Clearly define the service areas for each treatment facility. Provide separate flow projections for each treatment facility as well as the total flow projections presented in Table 2 on page 4. 3. Some of the linear feet of sewer interconnection lines found in Table 3 and Table 4 on page 5 and on page 4 of 25 in the Design Notes for Mt. Holly - Stanley Sewer Interconnect do not match. Please confirm the linear feet of each sewer line size to be constructed for the sewer interconnection from Stanley to Mt. Holly so that all three of these sources contain the same information. Provide a map identifying location, diameter, and length of each of the new and existing lines. Identify the location of the sewer meter and the Dutchman Creek pump station on this map as well. Also identify whether the lines are force mains or gravity lines. 4. Page 1 of the Environmental Assessment states that 27,300 feet of gravity sewer and 1400 feet of force main are included in the proposed project. Confirm that these figures are accurate and agree with the information provided in Table 3 and Table 4. 5. The flow summary on pages 5 of 25 and 6 of 25 in the Design Notes for Mt. Holly - Stanley Sewer Interconnect uses a peak flow factor of 2.0. Typically, a peak flow factor of 2.5 is used. Please revise these flow calculations or provide an engineering basis for using a factor of 2.0. Also, the peak flow into each line segment and the depth of flow at peak in each line segment should be provided. Clearly identify the design flow rate for each line segment. Gravity sewer lines should be designed to flow half full at the 20-year design PEAK flow rate. Several of the Design ADF's provided on page 4 of 25 do not match with the Design ADF's in Table 3 on page 5. Please revise the appropriate figures as necessary. It is our understanding that the new sewer outfall line will be sized for the Town of Stanley's entire 20-year design flow. 6. Table 1 on pages 2 and 3 provides a cost estimate of$1,312,500 for improvements to the Stanley wastewater treatment plant. Table 4 on page 5 provides a cost estimate of$2,746,900 for sewer interconnection from Stanley to Mt. Holly. The combined cost of these two estimates is $4,059,400. Will the entire project be-funded from the State Bond Loan Program? Currently, the Bond Loan amount is $3,098,500. How does the town intend to fund the additional $960,900 portion of the project? 7. Please be advised that receipt of a loan from the North Carolina Water Pollution Control Revolving Funds is contingent on the review and approval of the proposed loan by the Local Government Commission. 8. Please provide a present worth analysis for the Stanley - Mt. Holly Sewer Interconnection Option I, Option II, and Option III on page 7. All present worth analyses should use a discount rate of 7.75% and associated compound interest factors. 9. Confirm that the existing Mt. Holly wastewater treatment plant has the additional capacity to handle 0.5 mgd of wastewater from the town of Stanley over the 20- year planning period. Provide calculations demonstrating that the Mt. Holly collection system will be capable of transporting the proposed 0.5 mgd flow to the Mt. Holly treatment plant. 11. Please submit a resolution adopted by the Town of Stanley agreeing to implement the sewer interconnection project and the wastewater treatment plant improvements. 12. Page 5 of 21 of the Stanley WWTP Design Notes shows that 42 hp is required to provide adequate mixing in the aeration basin. The proposed 2 - 25 hp mixers will not provide adequate mixing in the event that the largest unit should malfunction. Consider providing 3 - 25 hp mixers in the aeration basin or having a spare mixer on site. Page 21 of 21 of the Stanley WWTP Design Notes shows that 62 hp is required to provide adequate mixing in the aerobic digester. The proposed 4 - 15 hp mixers will not provide adequate mixing in the event that the largest unit should malfunction. Consider providing 5 - 15 hp mixers in the aeration basin or having a spare mixer on site. 14. The concentration of influent BOD used in the design calculations is 300 mg/L rather than 350 mg/L as shown on page 2 of 21 of the Design Calculations for the Stanley WWTP. Please revise the influent BOD concentration figure on page 2 of 21 of the Design Calculations to read 300 mg/L. 15. Identify how the user fees will be affected for a typical residential customer using 5,000 gallons per month when the Town of Stanley must provide their share of the cost for the future Mt. Holly WWTP expansion. Provide an anticipated schedule for the expansion of the Mt. Holly WWTP. 16. The existing intermunicipal agreement between the Town of Stanley and the City of Mt. Holly requires revision. This can be achieved by adopting an amendment to agreement. This amendment should include the following information: A. As recipient of the loan, the Town of Stanley must serve as the lead agency for the construction of the sewer interconnect project (page 1, section 2). B. Update the project cost estimate (page 2, section 6). C. Provide a copy of the interlocal sewer interconnect agreement to be entered into by Gaston County and the Town (page 2, section 6.1.). D. The Town will be required to retain ownership of the outfall line until all State loan funds have been repaid (page 3, section 9). E. The capacity purchased by the Town should be 500,000 gallons per day rather than 200,000 gpd (page 4, section 11). F. __, Provide a copy of"Exhibit A" (page 2, sections 4.A. and 4.C.). 17.

O. Box 29579 pik Raleigh, North Carolina 27626-0579 IMP Engineering Re: Amendment Engineers A - Planners Town of Stanley Surveyors WKD # 96451.10 Dear Mr. Madden: The following is an amendment to the 201 Facilities Plan prepared by the Town of Stanley. The selected 201 alternative recommended expanding the Town's wastewater treatment plant to 1.0 MGD to handle future capacity needs. The Town of Stanley and the City of Mount Holly in March 1996 entered into an intermunicipal agreement for Mount Holly to treat a portion of Stanley's wastewater at Mount Holly's treatment plant on the Catawba River. This will allow Stanley to reduce flow at their treatment facility and not expand the capacity of the plant. • The agreement calls for Stanley to purchase 0.500 MGD of treatment capacity at the Mount Holly facility and construct a sewer interconnect between the two sewer systems to convey wastewater from Stanley to Mount Holly for treatment. The Town will also make several needed improvements at their wastewater treatment plant as a part of this engineering amendment. 201 AMENDMENT CHANGES The following 201 Amendment changes, dated May 1996, are included for the Town of Stanley: Wastewater Treatment Plant (V VVTP): 1. NPDES Permit Flow. The Stanley Wastewater Treatment Plant flow capacity will remain 0.500 million gallons per day (MGD). The following improvements are planned and are included in the 201 Amendment: 1924 Cleveland Avenue Other Offices.

A new aerobic digester (64 ft diameter with an 18 ft. side water depth) will be provided to replace the existing unit. The digester will provide stabilization and storage of sludge for 90 (plus) days at a 2% solids. Additional storage can be done in the existing sludge holding basin. 3. Aeration & Mixing. Replace the aeration basin aerators with two 25-hp floating aerators. Move two existing 20-hp aerators to the sludge holding basin and provide four 15-hp flow directional mixers in the sludge holding basin. 4. Dechlorination Facilities. A sulfur Dioxide gaseous dechlorination system will be provide for the 0.5 MGD treatment capacity. Two 100 lbs/day feeders with accessory equipment and alarms will be provided. Piping and valve modifications will be made to the existing chlorine contact basin to segregate the basin into two separate basins. 5. Standby Power. Standby power for the plant, excluding auxiliary lighting or sludge treatment facilities will be added as required for dischargers to WS waters. 6. Influent Screening and Flow Measuring.

The improvements will include a new sewage pumping station, replacing two existing pumping station in the City's system. The upgrades will be sized for all of the Town's existing and twenty year projected flow plus existing and projected flows tributary to the new outfall in the Mount Holly system. The Town has entered into an agreement with the City to purchase 0.5 MGD of treatment capacity at the City's 4.0 MGD treatment plant located east of Mount Holly on the Catawba River. A copy of the agreement between the two municipalities is attached to the engineering amendment. The agreement has provisions for future additional treatment capacity purchase by the Town upon approval of both parties. REVISED PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Town operates a 500,000 gallon per day (GPD) wastewater treatment plant (VWVfP) located at the end of Lola Street northwest of the Town. The treatment plant is an activated sludge process, discharging treated effluent to Mauney Creek. Stanley will continue to treat most of its wastewater at the Town's treatment plant. The sewer interconnect will be built to the industrial areas along Highway 27 east of Stanley and will serve both industrial and residential areas. The outfall will be built to accommodate future extensions to pick up other areas of 3 , the Town's service area in the future. Long range all of the Town's wastewater could be discharged to the Mount Holly system with the Town's existing treatment plant retired or eliminated. It is the Town's plan to continue to operate the existing plant for some time into the future until either it is feasible to treat their wastewater at Mount Holly or future discharge limits to Mauney Creek make the discharge no longer feasible. Stanley's flow projections for the twenty-year planning period are revised to 0.854 MGD from a previously identified need of 1.148 MGD. This change reflects changes in industrial discharges effected by pretreatment and reuse of process water and a reduction in planned residential growth in areas adjacent to the Town's service area. This treatment capacity need can be met with the existing treatment capacity (0.5 MGD) and the purchased treatment capacity from Mount Holly (0.5 MGD).

NCDEM regulations require Stanley to increase the capacity to meet future capacity, detail specific measures to achieve waste flow reductions or develop alternative plans to reduce flow at the treatment plant. Estimated cost to expand the treatment plant is $3,006,400. Waste flow reduction is not achievable in a growing economy. Stanley has chosen to reduce flow at the treatment plant with an intergovernmental agreement with Mount Holly to treat up to 0.5 MGD of wastewater. It is advantageous for Stanley to purchase wastewater treatment capacity from Mount Holly in lieu of expanding their own facility. It is increasingly uneconomical for the Town to operate its own wastewater treatment facilities. Consolidation of these activities with the City of Mount Holly is not only financially sound, but furthers regional concepts of consolidation of small wastewater discharges into larger regional facilities, reducing the total number of discharges. The sewer interconnect option offers the Town the option to purchase additional treatment capacity at Mount Holly in the future. This option is a hedge against future treatment regulation changes which are increasingly difficult for small treatment operations like Stanley to comply. The estimated project cost of the sewer interconnect with Mount Holly, including outfalls and pumping station is $2,746,900. The sewer interconnect offer the additional advantage of eliminating four existing sewage pumping stations, two in the Stanley system and two in the Mount Holly system. The wastewater in the Stanley is currently pumped two to three times before reaching the treatment plant. With the sewer interconnect the wastewater will be handled by gravity. The sewer interconnect will reduce the amount of wastewater to be handled at the Town's West Chestnut Street pumping station which now is a major pumping station in the system and experiences overloads during peak flow periods. In the Mount Holly system, the interconnect project will replace two older pumping stations in their system with one larger pumping station. COST EFFECTIVENESS: Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require expansion of the treatment plant and advanced level of treatment required to discharge at the larger flows into a low flow stream. This option is more expensive than the sewer interconnect option. Sewer Interconnect. Three sewer interconnect options were evaluated. All three options conveys wastewater by gravity sewer between Stanley near Highway 27 to the Mount Holly system. Option I requires two new pumping stations in the 6 Mount Holly system to replace two older stations. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be replaced. Option II requires construction of a new pump station near the existing Dutchman Creek pump station near NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be rebuilt with larger pumps and a new force main across Dutchman Creek to a new gravity sewer. The existing Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option III requires a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchman Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchman Creek pump station would be abandoned. Construction cost of the three options are as follows: Option I $2,908,800 Option II $2,795,900 Option III $2,150,800 Both the no-action and Stanley WWTP expansion alternatives were rejected for economic reasons and treatment capacity needs. Option III was selected as the sewer interconnect alternative for economic reasons. Option Ill is less expensive to build and operating one pumping station require less maintenance and operation cost over Options I and II. USER FEES Sewer revenue needs upon initial start-up will be $917,400 per year or$76,450 per month. Currently, 35 percent of the Town's sewer revenues come from its residential customers. Assuming this pattern continues, the monthly sewer revenues which must be generated from residential customers would be: $76,450/month x 35% = $26,663/month Based on current population projections, there should be approximately 1,060 residential accounts at start-up. Monthly sewer cost for a residential user would be: $26,663/month / 1,060 customers = $25.24/month ENVIRONMENTAL CORRIDOR An Environmental Assessment, prepared by Robert J. Goldstein & Associates, Inc., is attached to the end of this report. 7 INTERMUNICIPAL AGREEMENTS The two municipalities have entered into an intermunicipal agreement for the sewer interconnect project.

Project Corridor and Jurisdictional Wetlands. 1 7 • 1.0. PROPOSED PROJECT. The Town of Stanley proposes to construct a wastewater collection and pumping system along South Stanley Creek and Dutchmans Creek in northeastern Gaston County, North Carolina (Figure 1). The project will connect the Stanley sewer system with the Mount Holly system, and the wastewater will be treated and discharged at the Mount Holly WWTP on the Catawba River. The proposed facilities include a 2.7 MGD pump station located adjacent to Alsace Mill between Alsace Street and Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly, 27,300 feet of gravity sewer from four existing pump stations to the proposed Alsace Mill pump station, and 1,400 feet of force main paralleling the lowermost (southeastern) portion of the gravity sewer. The existing pump stations (Dutchmans Creek, Woodlawn Avenue, Twin Brooks Drive, and Jackson Park)will be abandoned. The proposed force main will discharge to an existing force main at the intersection of NC-27 and NC-273 Bypass (Figures 2a-d). 2.0. PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT. The Town of Stanley wishes to direct industrial, commercial, and residential development along NC-27 southeast of town. The existing Stanley WWTP (0.5 MGD) on Mauney Creek is in a separate drainage basin and would require significant pumping costs. Future expansion of Stanley's WWTP capacity is constrained by the high cost of treatment required by the state to discharge into a small stream. Stanley purchased an agreement from Mount Holly to provide 0.5 MGD of wastewater treatment at Mount Holly's 4.0 MGD WWTP on the Catawba River. The Mount Holly WWTP • is better suited for accommodating future expansion than the Stanley WWTP. The project will also serve western Mount Holly and allow both municipalities to provide sewer service to the extraterritorial land between them. The project will ultimately accommodate a wastewater flow of 2.7 MGD, provided that sufficient WWTP capacity is made available. 3.0. EXISTING ENVIRONMENT. 3.1. Geology and Soils. The project area is in the Charlotte Belt of the Piedmont physiographic province, with a prevalence of metamorphosed quartz diorite, granitic rock, and felsic metavolcanic rock (N.C. Division of Land Resources, 1985). Elevations range from 740 feet above mean sea level at the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to 580 feet on Dutchmans Creek in Mount Holly. The prevalent soils are Chewacla loam, Helena sandy loam, Winnsboro loam, Wilkes loam, Gaston sandy clay loam, and Pacolet sandy loam (Woody, 1989). 1 3.2. Existing Land Use. The proposed Alsace Mill pump station will be located above the 100-year flood elevation in a grassed area adjacent to Alsace Mill. Of the 27,300 feet of proposed sewerline corridor, 17% is forest edge adjacent to existing dirt roads or utility lines, 53% is unbroken forest, 16% is-shrub and sapling thicket, 13% is paved or grassed, and 1% comprises stream crossings. Habitat types are described in detail in section 3.6 and Table 1. The proposed wastewater service area beyond the Mount Holly city limits are sparsely developed. 3.3. Water Resources. Surface waters include Dutchmans Creek, its tributary South Stanley Creek, and an unnamed tributary of South Stanley Creek,in the Catawba River (Lake Wylie) watershed. The stream banks are forested along most segments. South Stanley Creek and its tributary have mixed sand, gravel, cobble, and bedrock substrata, with numerous riffles. Dutchmans Creek has a flatter gradient and a predominantly sandy bottom, with few riffles. All streams in the project area are classified WS-IV by the N.C. Division of Environmental Management (DEM). The WS-IV Critical Area for Lake Wylie begins on Dutchmans Creek immediately upstream of NC-273 Bypass, which is the downstream end of the project area. Groundwater aquifers in the project area are classified as MIF(Metaigneous Felsic) and MII (Metaigneous Intermediate), with average well yields of 18 to 19 gallons per minute (Daniel & Payne, 1990). 3.4. Jurisdictional Wetlands. RJG&A ecologists Gerald Pottern and Patrick McMillan delineated jurisdictional wetlands in the project corridor during April and May, 1996, using the 1987 COE Wetlands Delineation Manual(Environmental Laboratory, 1987)and supplementary technical criteria for hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and hydrology indicators. Twelve jurisdictional wetlands were located along South Stanley Creek upstream of SR 1923 and its unnamed tributary (Figures 2b-d). The drainage basin area of South Stanley Creek at the SR 1923 bridge is 4.38 square miles, and the wetlands upstream of this point are headwater wetlands. No wetlands were encountered along Dutchmans Creek or the lower portion of South Stanley Creek. Eleven of the twelve wetlands are forested floodplain depression wetlands, with canopies containing green ash, river birch, water oak, shagbark hickory, American elm, sweetgum, sycamore, and red maple. The understory shrubs include saplings of the canopy species, musclewood, Chinese privet, spicebush, silky dogwood, tag alder, elderberry, black willow, winterberry, arrowwood, and box elder. Dominant vines and herbs include common greenbrier, poison ivy, Virginia creeper,blackberry,sedges,soft rush,false nettle,jewelweed, coneflower, turtlehead, cane, horsetail, sensitive fern, and southern lady fern. 2 • The twelfth and lowermost wetland (F) is a marsh created by impoundment of an intermittent stream for erosion control adjacent to a quarry. It supports shrub and vine thickets containing tag alder, elderberry, black willow, buttonbush, swamp rose, and blackberry;and an herb layer of Japanese grass,wingstem,thoroughworts, sedges,soft rush, arrowhead, cattail, spikerush, and jewelweed. 3.5. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fishes were sampled on 17 April 1996 with a 10-foot long, 3/16-inch mesh seine. The dominant fish species in South Stanley Creek at SR 1923 were sandbar shiner, redlip shiner, yellowfin shiner,greenhead shiner, rosyside dace, bluehead chub, striped jumprock,speckled killifish, redbreast sunfish, and tesselated darter. Dominant fishes in Dutchmans Creek upstream of Main Street included sandbar shiner, spottail shiner,fieryblack shiner,whitefin shiner,bluehead chub,largemouth bass,white bass, bluegill, redbreast sunfish, gizzard shad, Piedmont darter, and seagreen darter. 3.6. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Floodplain and upland forested habitats in the project area are categorized below by the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NHP) community classification system (Schafale and Weakley, 1990). The floodplain forests consist of Levee Forest on well drained sand adjacent to Dutchmans Creek and the lower half of South Stanley Creek, Bottomland Forest on poorly drained silty soils behind levees, and Alluvial Forest along smaller streams where no levee has formed. Dominant canopy trees in floodplain forests include the species listed in floodplain depression wetlands in section 3.4, plus those less tolerant of prolonged saturation such as bladdernut, carrionflower, southern sugar maple, and flowering dogwood. Upland forests consist of Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest on moist acidic slopes, Basic Mesic Hardwood Forest on basic or mafic moist slopes, and Dry-Mesic Oak/Hickory Forest on drier slopes and upland ridges. The mesic forests are dominated by beech, northern red oak, water oak, southern sugar maple, red maple, sweetgum, tulip poplar, shagbark hickory, mockernut hickory, silverbell, and bigleaf magnolia. The basic forest supports a greater abundance and diversity of herbaceous species than does the acidic type. The dry-mesic forest contains primarily white oak, southern red oak, scarlet oak, sourwood, and various hickories, and a sparse herb layer. 4.0. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS. 4.1 . No-Action Alternative. The no-action alternative would constrain development along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly to low density uses that can dispose of wastewater through septic systems. This condition is undesirable for economic reasons, and the high failure rate of such systems. 3 4.2. Stanley WWTP. Treatment at the Stanley WWTP would require WWTP expansion,excessive pumping costs, and advanced level of treatment required for discharging large volumes of wastewater into a stream with very low flow, as discussed in Section 2.0. This option was rejected as the most expensive build alternative. 4.3. Stanley to Mount Holly Interconnector. Three Stanley to Mount Holly wastewater interconnector alternatives were evaluated. All include a new gravity sewer from the Jackson Park pump station southeast of Stanley to the confluence of Dutchmans Creek and Taylor Creek in Mount Holly, and allow the existing Dutchmans Creek, Jackson Creek, and Twin Brooks pump stations to be abandoned. Option I requires construction of two new pump stations; one on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek at its confluence with Taylor Creek, and one on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option II requires construction of a new pump station on the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek 400 feet west of the NC-273 Bypass bridge. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station would be retained, and a new force main built across Dutchmans Creek connecting it to the new gravity sewer along the northeast bank. The existing Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. Option Ill requires construction of a new pump station on the northeast bank of Dutchmans Creek near Alsace Mill. The existing Woodlawn Avenue pump station and Dutchmans Creek pump station would be abandoned. A gravity sewer alignment adjacent to the existing sewer along the southwest bank of Dutchmans Creek was considered, but determined impractical due to steep slopes,bedrock, and the greater trench depth required. 4.4. Selection of the Preferred Alternative. Both the no-action and Stanley WWTP expansion alternatives were rejected for economic reasons. Of the Stanley to Mount Holly interconnector alternatives, option Ill was selected as the preferred alternative. It requires two new crossings of Dutchmans Creek, one new pump station, and eliminates four existing pump stations. Options I and II require maintenance of two pump stations, and option II also requires an additional Dutchmans Creek crossing. Option I includes a force main, rather than gravity sewer, from the mouth of Taylor Creek to the lower end of the project, and would allow preservation of a wider forested buffer along Dutchmans Creek. The project engineers determined that the environmental benefits of a wider buffer do not justify the higher construction and maintenance costs or the increased risk of blockage or mechanical failure at the two new pump stations. 4 5.0. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES. 5.1. Land Use Changes. Based on a 40-foot wide construction corridor, the project will disturb 25 acres, including 16 acres of forest. The remaining acreage is previously disturbed land including road and utility rights-of-way, lawns, pasture, old fields, and cutover land. A 20-foot wide permanent access corridor will be maintained by periodic mowing. Secondary and cumulative impacts of induced urban growth may affect land use throughout the South Stanley Creek and Taylor Creek watersheds. The major changes will be along NC-27 between Stanley and Mount Holly,where industrial park development is under way. The DEM-mandated local watershed protection ordinances (Stanley, Mount Holly, and Gaston County) will regulate the density and types of new development in those areas within WS-IV watersheds, as discussed in section 5.8. 5.2. Prime and Unique Farmland. Most of the project corridor is either frequently flooded or too steep to qualify as prime farmland. Chewacla loam is a prime farmland soil only where it is drained and protected from flooding or not frequently flooded during the growing season. Chewacla loam is the most abundant soil mapped in the project corridor, but there are no flood control dams in or upstream of the project area. Helena sandy loam and Winnsboro loam are prime farmland soils where they occur on slopes less than 8 percent, including a 2,500 foot segment between the Jackson Park pump station and NC-27, and a few small areas along South Stanley Creek. None of these areas was in cultivation during the field reconnaissance (April to May, 1996). Following construction, areas of prime farmland soils will continue to be suitable for agriculture except for the small areas occupied by manholes. Loss of prime farmland soils to induced urban development in the wastewater service area is likely to occur. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. • 5.3. Public, Scenic, and Recreational Lands. A ball field and playground on the north bank of South Stanley Creek east of SR 1923 is the only dedicated public recreational area in the project corridor. Use of this facility will be interrupted during construction, but no long-term impacts are expected. Dutchmans Creek is a popular bank fishing stream for largemouth bass, redbreast sunfish, catfish, and white bass during their spring spawning migration, according to local anglers. The segment most heavily fished extends from the Main Street bridge in Mount Holly to the mouth of Dutchmans Creek. Fishing access from Main Street to NC-273 Bypass may be temporarily interrupted during construction, but no long-term direct impacts of the project are anticipated. Induced urban growth, however, may adversely affect fish habitat and public access to Dutchmans Creek, as discussed in section 5.12. 5 5.4. Archaeological and Historical Resources. No archaeological or historical inventory of the project corridor has been conducted. The State Historic Preservation Office,N.C. Department of Cultural Resources,will determine whether further information is required. 5.5. Air Quality. An increase in airborne particulates and exhaust emissions from construction vehicles will occur during construction, but the public health impacts of these emissions will be negligible. No operational air quality impacts of the project are anticipated. The wastewater pump station will be located 200 feet or more from the nearest residence. Induced urban growth will result in increased air pollutant emissions from vehicles and certain industrial activities. Gaston County has exceeded EPA threshold criteria for air pollutants during previous years, and requires annual emission testing of gasoline fueled vehicles. 5.6. Noise Levels. Residents adjacent to the project corridor may experience nuisance noise levels during construction, which will be limited to daylight hours. Operational noise of the facility will be negligible. Induced urban growth will cause an increase in noise from vehicles and construction activities. Residences along NC-27 are most likely to be affected. 5.7. Groundwater Resources. The project area is almost entirely impervious, and all rainfall on the site is transported through storm drains to surface streams. No impacts of the project on groundwater recharge are anticipated. 5.8. Surface Water Resources. Project construction will cause a temporary increase in turbidity and sediment load in adjacent streams. These impacts will be minimized by employing standard erosion control practices. An Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan will be submitted to the DEHNR Mooresville Regional Office for approval at least 30 days prior to construction. No direct adverse operational impacts of the project on water quality are anticipated. Impacts of the Mount Holly WWTP effluent on Lake Wylie are regulated by specific limits established in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 6 The project will deter new septic systems and reduce the number of existing ones in the wastewater service area. Failing septic systems are a common source of surface water pollution, especially in areas of clayey soils. Induced urban growth may adversely affect surface water quality in several ways. An increase in impervious surface area causes a corresponding increase in peak-stormflows, exacerbating channel erosion. Base flows during dry weather are subsequently reduced, causing small perennial streams to become intermittent,concentrating pollutants,and creating high temperature and low-oxygen conditions. Destruction of riparian forests, culverts, drainage improvements,and artificial channel stabilization may also contribute to water quality degradation. 5.9. Introduction of Toxic Substances. Potential sources of toxic substances during construction may include exhaust emissions, oil, fuel, and other vehicle fluids. There are no known petroleum storage tanks or facilities containing hazardous materials to be removed in the project area. No releases of toxic substances are anticipated from operation of the project. 5.10. Eutrophication of Receiving Waters. Nutrient loading to streams in the project area may temporarily increase due to soil erosion during construction, but should be negligible provided that erosion control practices are followed. In flowing streams, most sediment-associated nutrients remain bound to clay particles where they contribute little to eutrophication. These nutrients generally become bioavailable when they settle into the anaerobic hypolimnion of a seasonally stratified pond or reservoir, such as Lake Wylie located one mile downstream of the project. Any additional nutrient loading impacts from project construction will be negligible. Nutrient loading from the Mount Holly WWTP is controlled by effluent limits specified in the plant's NPDES discharge permit. 5.11. Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters. The final alignment best avoids the twelve wetlands in the project area. Preliminary calculations indicate that the unavoidable wetland area affected is less than one acre, pending COE verification. Following construction, wetlands will be restored to pre-construction grade, and the permanent mowed access corridor limited to 10 feet wide. Anti-seep collars will be installed per DEM specifications to prevent the gravel-filled trench from draining the wetlands. Induced development will cause further loss and degradation of wetlands throughout the project service area. The rate and distribution of such losses cannot be predicted. 7 • 5.12. Fish and Aquatic Habitats. Fish and other aquatic organisms may be temporarily affected by elevated silt loading, turbidity, and silt-associated pollutants during construction. Clearing of riparian forests along segments where steep slopes or other design factors preclude the preservation of a wide buffer may cause permanent changes in stream habitat and water quality, thereby affecting fish populations. Induced development may further degrade aquatic habitats as discussed in section 5.8. 5.13. Wildlife and Terrestrial Habitats. Habitat types disturbed by project construction are summarized in Table 1. The natural forested community types are described in section 3.6. High quality mesic forests in the project area contain canopy trees averaging 25 to 35 inches diameter at breast height (dbh) and regionally rare species such as bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla), nodding trillium (Trillium rugelli) and yellow lady slipper (Cypripedium pubescens). Three such high quality segments occur between wetland F and wetland L along South Stanley Creek. High quality alluvial forests in the project corridor, with 25 to 35 inch dbh canopy trees, are located in two segments along Dutchmans Creek between Main Street and the Woodlawn Avenue pump station. The project will cause fragmentation of forests along 14,400 feet of corridor, and will disturb forest edge habitat along an additional 4,600 feet. The mowed corridor may promote the success of invasive exotic species such as Chinese privet and Japanese honeysuckle,and may deter certain wildlife species that require tracts of unbroken forest. Induced urban growth will cause further loss of natural communities. The rate and geographic distribution of such loss will depend on social and economic factors, and cannot be predicted. 5.14. Rare and Protected Species. The N.C. Natural Heritage Program has records of eighteen rare plant or animal species from Gaston County. Four of these are either federally protected (E or T), federal candidates (C1 or C2), or state protected (E, T, or SC) (Table 2). For two of these species,the highfin carpsucker (Carpiodes velifer) and the bog turtle (Clemmys muhlenbergii), there is no suitable habitat in the project area, and no adverse impacts on these species are anticipated. Suitable habitat for the loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) occurs in fields and pastures in the project area. No shrikes were detected during the field reconnaissance, and the project will not significantly reduce suitable habitat. 8 • Marginally suitable habitat for Georgia aster(Astergeorgianus) occurs along the edges of mesic-dry forests, including edges of road or utility rights-of-way. The field reconnaissance was too early in the season to reliably detect and identify Georgia aster. If present in the project area,construction may destroy some individuals, but will create additional forest edge habitat suitable for the species. Therefore, no adverse net impact is anticipated. One unprotected rare species was encountered, the bigleaf magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla). A population of this tree occurs along a 3,500 foot segment of the project corridor between the Twin Brooks pump station and the mesic slope adjacent to wetland J (Figure 2c). The greatest density and largest specimens are in the 1,000 foot segment immediately north of the Duke Power/Gastonia raw water line ROW. Approximately fifty 4- to 15-inch dbh trees will be eliminated; saplings less than 4 inches dbh were not counted. Fewer and smaller specimens occur on the opposite bank of South Stanley Creek, but the project engineers determined that construction on this side may not be feasible due to the greater trench depth required. 6.0. MITIGATIVE MEASURES. The project engineers revised their preliminary sewer alignment following RJG&A's delineation of jurisdictional wetlands, so that the final proposed design avoids and minimizes wetland impacts to the extent practicable. Unavoidable impacts include disturbance of less than 1.0 acre of headwater wetlands, pending COE verification, and can be permitted under Section 404 Nationwide Permit 12 and its corresponding Section 401 General Water Quality Certification. Compensatory mitigation is not likely to be required, provided that conditions of the Nationwide Permit are met. Impacts of induced development will in part be mitigated by municipal and county water supply watershed protection ordinances. Other than the buffers required by these ordinances, which restrict construction but do not require maintenance of natural vegetation, no local program for riparian corridor protection exists. 9 7.0.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND INSPECTION: Due to the funding_ of the Project, the Project will be developed according to the following guidelines: The City agrees co commence the Project within a reasonable time after execution of this Agreement. The Project schedule will be established by the Project Engineer and shall be approved by the Town and the City. The Town has bond funding which requires all money be spent and the Project closed out by May 31, 1998 . The City will schedule design, bidding and construction co complete all construction by December 31, 1997. 8 . RIGHTS OF WAY: The City shall obtain all rights-of-way and encroachment agreements as necessary for chat portion of the Project to be constructed east of the location of the Master Meter, and Town shall obtain all such rights-of-way and encroachment agreements for that cortion west of the location of the Master Meter . 9 . OWNERS ? , OPER AT___. , AND MAINTENANCE: A. Upon final c: _ ' cr" cn of :ne P=ojecz, as cam'"' 'ar° the Project Engineer, Town shall own, operate and maintain that portion of the Project lying west of the Master Meter. All other portions of the Project and appurtenances thereto including the Master Meter and pump stations shall be owned, operated, and maintained by City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if Town shall obtain funding which requires Town to retain ownership of the sewer .outfall line, then it is agreed chat Town shall have ownership of said outfall line, which would otherwise belong to City, and shall lease the same to City for One ($1. 00) Dollar per year until such time as Town may convey ownership of the same to City without violating the terms of its funding. The aforesaid sewer line will then be conveyed to City without charge. B. City shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to City or leased by City from Town. Town shall have the exclusive right to allow sewer taps into that portion of the sewer outfall line belonging to Town and not leased to City, 3 subject, however, to the service area limitations set forth in Paragraph 10 below. C. If either municipality shall hereafter annex a water or sewer customer then being served by the other municipality, then such annexing municipality must provide for such water and/or sewer service through its own facilities ( i . e. , sewer lines, pump stations ) within one (1 ) year of the effective date of such annexation. 10 . WASTEWATER SERVICE AREA: It is agreed that wastewater passing through the master meter to be treated by the City shall only contain wastewater originating from sources within the resent or future corporate limits of the Town, the present or future extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town, and those sources presently served by the Town located outside bcth the present corporate and extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction of the Town. The Town agrees that at no time will it provide sewer service to any areas except those listed in this paragraph 10 if such service should generate wastewater flowing through the Master Meter to the City' s wastewater treatment facility, without prior written consent of City. 11. WASTEWATER TREATMENT: City presently utilizes approximately 65% of the treatment capacity at its existing wastewater treatment facility. City agrees that it will make available to Town under the terms of this agreement sufficient capacity at its present wastewater treatment plant to treat up to 200 ,000 gallons per day of wastewater from the Town. City further agrees not to unreasonably deny to Town additional treatment capacity within its current wastewater treatment plant , ?rovided that such additional Wastewater does not jeo ar:_ze City' s capacity to provide service its then existing service area. Town agrees co pay cc for wastewater crew::lent at City' s present facility a rate equal to 125% of City' s inside sewer rate as may be established by Ci-,J from time to time. This rate shall continue in effect until changed as hereinafter set forth. The City will provide meter readings to Town on or about the first day of each month f•lr the preceding month ' s usage, and Town will pay to the City its sewer charges within 15 days of the receipt of such billing. Any late payment not received 15 days of said billing will carry a 1-1/2% lace payment charge. 12. FUTURE EXPANSION OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: City' s current facility was completed in 1976 .. Advances in wastewater treatment technology, additional treatment requirements proposed by the State, and increased demand are all factors co be considered by City regarding a future upgrade and expansion (hereafter referred to as "U&E") of its wastewater facility. The City proposes to expand and upgrade its facility when any of the following events occur: 1. The flow capacity of the facility reaches 90% of • its capacity; A 2. The City' s NPDES permit limits require an upgrade; 3 . At such other time as the City may deem it appropriate. Such a U&E would include but not be limited to chose improvements sec forth in a facilities study entitled "Wastewater Treatment Plan Expansion Study" , performed by W. K. Dickson, Engineers, dated January 1995 , a copy of which is retained by both parties. 13 . PARTICIPATION BY TOWN UPON U&E OF CITY'S TREATMENT FACILITY: In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the City agrees to include in the U&E . 5 million gallons (or such greater amount as Town may request prior to preliminary design) of hydraulic capacity and a proportionate .share of the U&E treatment capacity (i.e. , capacity to treat BOD, TSS, nutrients, and other regulated constituents ) for use by Town, and Town agrees to accept and pay for the same under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. A. City will notify Town in writing at such time as City desires to begin engineering design for the U&E of its wastewater treatment plant. B. The portion of the U&E cost to be paid by Town will be equal to the product of the entire U&E cost multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is .5 million gallons per day (or such greater volume of capacity as Town may timely elect) , and the denominator of which is equal to the increased treatment capacity of the U&E (as compared to City' s present capacity per day at its present treatment facility) expressed in million gallons :PP, day. By wav o= 1 ?',_=c_t.._cr. Stanley' s share of :he U«= cost would be $2 . according to the following example : (U&E cost) $10M x 0 . 5 MGD ( reserve for Town) = $2. ^_ 2 . 0 MGD (increased cap . ) C. The Town shall pay to the. City the pro-rata share of each installment as the installments come due on City' s bond indebtedness incurred to construct the U&E. By way of illustration, if the U&E cost is $10 million and Town' s portion of these costs is $2.5 million, Town would pay to City twenty-five percent of each installment. If City should pay off the bond issue early, Town shall nevertheless continue to make installments according to the initial amortization schedule, unless the parties shall agree to a different amortization. Town may, however, pay off their portion of the indebtedness at any earlier date as Town may elect. D. Town' s rate for wastewater treatment by City shall be reduced from 125% of City' s inside rate as the same may be changed from time to time to 100% of the City' s 5 • inside rate beginning on the first day of the utility billing cycle immediately following Town' s first payment to City of its portion of City' s bond payment or at such time as the U&E is completed and in use, - - whichever shall occur first. Thereafter, Town's rate shall continue to be 100% of the City' s inside rate as . the same may be from time to time established until such time as Town has paid City for its portion of the plant L&E; thereafter the Town' s rate for sewer treatment by City will be 125% of the rate charged to City' s inside customers as the same may be from time to time established. In the event that Town should be in default of its obligation to pay its pro-rata share of each installment of the bond indebtedness, then Town' s rate during such default shall be increased to 125% of City' s inside rate, and City may, in addition, pursue such legal recourse as may be available to enforce the terms of this agreement.. E. The parties expressly agree that Town will be paying a fractional amount as set forth above based • upon the entire cost of the U&E and not solely the additional costs of including into the U&E Town' s reserved capacity. It is for this reason that the Town' s sewer rate charged by the City is decreased until such time as Town has paid for its portion of the Plant U&E. 14. TERM OF AGREEMENT: This agreement shall continue for a term of forty ( 40 ) years from and after the date of the execution hereof. 15 . SEWER USE REGULATIONS: Town agrees that it will keep in force at all times and enforce a Sewer Use Ordinance accroved by the State of North Carolina. This ordinance would be the same or similar to that 1n e==a'"- within the City of Mount E al+ .• At all times during this A_greemen City will issue a sewer use _ermit to Town in accordance with the City' s sewer use ordinance and regulations and ons requirements �as may be promulgated from time to time by the State of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (DEHNR) for significant industrial users as defined by the DEHNR. During the term of this Agreement, at Town' s election, City will administer Town' s pretreatment program pertaining to those, industries b discharging sewer through the Master Meter to e treated by City. Town will reimburse City the reasonable cost associated with administering Town' s pretreament program. Town agrees to submit to the City all applications for industrial discharges which pass through the master meter to be treated by the City. No industrial discharge permits will be issued by Town until reviewed and approved by City. The City will review and approve or disapprove permits and, if necessary, perform a headworks analysis to determine the City' s ability to treat such wastewater within Town' s • remaining reserved capacity. City will approve such permits 6 • • if Town then has sufficient remaining treatment capacity within its reserve. The City will approve such permit on the same basis as it approves similar applications for permits by industrial users within the City of Mount Holly, taking in consideration the proportionate amount of the wastewater treatment capacity reserved by the City for the Town both relating to its current wastewater facility and any upgraded or expanded facility. City will not violate the provisions of this paragraph for any purpose including the purpose of inducing industries to locate within City. 16 . TOWN'S FUTURE SEWER NEEDS : At such future date as Town' s wastewater flow based on a yearly average exceeds 80% of the capacity purchased by Town in the U&E, then Town should undertake negotiations for additional treatment capacity. City will take in consideration any unused plant-capacity then present within the U&E and the needs of City, Town, and any other parties sharing such capacity. City will thereupon allocate to Town such unused capacity as City may • elect in its sole discretion. The rate for such additional capacity shall be negotiated between the parties . If such unused capacity is not sufficient to provide Town with sewer treatment commensurate with its demand, then City agrees to construct additional capacity at its wastewater facility prior to Town' s usage exceeding 90% of its reserved capacity in the U&E, provided that Town bear all expense relating to an additional U&E for Town' s benefit. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their duly authorized representatives the day and year first above written. CITY OF `CUNT HOLLY •i rank E.
