A total of 408 LF of 8-inch sewer line will be designed to serve the site. This new system will not require a pump station. It will connect into an existing manhole in an existing public utility easement adjacent to Division Drive. THIS SUBMITTAL - FEBRUARY 2021: This submittal modifies State Sewer Permit WQ0042011, issued 10-13-2020. This submittal is for building office/warehouse site with approximately 76 employees with a total flow of 1,900 GPD. A total of 147 LF of 8-inch Gravity Sewer Line will serve the site. These revisions reflect a reduction in flow from 6,700 GPD to 1,900 GPD and a reduction in 8-inch Gravity Sewer Line from 408 LF to 147 LF. This will be Private Sewer and will connect into an existing manhole in an existing public utility easement adjacent to Division Drive. This system will be served by the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority.
