In the Matter of
Application by Aqua North Carolina, Inc., 202
MacKenan Court, Cary, North Carolina 27511, for
Approval of Corporate Surety Bond to Replace
Corporate Surety Bond Previously Filed
ORDER APPROVING
CORPORATE
SURETY BOND AND
RELEASING BONDS
BY THE COMMISSION: Heater Utilities, Inc., has in place (Docket No. W-274.
Sub 631) a bond in the amount of $7.6 million. Aqua North Carolina, Inc.. has in place
(Docket No. W-218, Sub 249) a bond in the amount of $2,250,000. The AquaSource
companies (Fairways Utilities, Inc., Glynnwood Water Systems, Inc., Mountain Point
Utilities, Inc., Rayco Utilities, Inc., and Willowbrook Utility Company, Inc.) have in place
(Docket No. W-787, Sub 32, et al.) a bond in the amount of $950,000. The grand total
of these bonds is $10,800,000 and $9,900,000 of this amount is assigned to specific
subdivisions, with the balance available for assignment as franchises are granted by the
Commission.
In the Order issued by the Commission on December 5, 2008, approving the
merger in the above -captioned dockets, the Commission ordered Aqua to replace the
bonds provided by the various companies prior to the merger with one bond
consolidating the parts.
On April 30, 2009, Aqua filed an application requesting Commission approval of
a corporate surety bond provided to replace the several smaller corporate surety bonds
previously provided by the various companies.
Aqua America, Inc. (Aqua), is the Surety in this bond and Aqua North Carolina.
Inc., is the Principal.
1 On April 20, 2007, the Commission issued a joint order in the following dockets: Docket No. W-787,
Sub 32, Docket No. W-899, Sub 36, Docket No. W-981, Sub 10, Docket No, W-989, Sub 9, and
Docket No, W-1032, Sub 9.
Aqua has filed a corporate surety bond in the amount of $10.8 million, which is
equal to the sum of the bonds being replaced. The purpose of the additional bond
amount ($900,000 greater than the $9,900,000 presently assigned) is for meeting the
bonding requirement of future acquisitions. The extra bond will be allocated to specific
docket numbers as the need arises.
The filing requirements for a corporate surety bond have been met.
The Public Staff has recommended that the application for approval of the
corporate surety bond be approved.
Based upon the foregoing, the Commission is of the opinion that Aquas request
for approval of its corporate surety bond should be granted and the corporate surety
bond previously filed by the various companies should be released.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED as follows:
1. That the corporate surety bond filed in this proceeding, as surety for the
bond in the amount of $10.8 million, is hereby accepted and approved.
2. That the $7.6 million corporate surety bond previously filed by Heater. in
Docket No. W-274, Sub 631, is hereby released to Heater.
3. That the $2.25 million corporate surety bond previously filed by Aqua. in
Docket No. W-218, Sub 249, is hereby released to Aqua.
4. That the $0.95 million corporate surety bond previously filed by the
AquaSource companies, in Docket No. W-787, Sub 32, et al., is hereby released to the
AquaSource companies.
5. That, as it files applications for new or transferred franchises in the future.
Aqua shall designate the dockets covered by the extra $900.000 of bond and surety.
ISSUED BY ORDER OF THE COMMISSION.
This the 7th day of May _, 2009.

I. PURPOSE
a. To effectively respond to and remediate sanitary sewer overflows to protect
public health and the environment and to comply with all regulatory
requirements
b. Sanitary sewer overflows can be caused by numerous events and/or
obstructions including substantial rain events, root intrusion, grease buildup, etc.
The best practice to eliminate or minimize SSOs is through preventive
maintenance. If an SSO does occur, it is the responsibility of the utility to
respond as quickly as possible to mitigate the SSO and reduce and remove the
hazard.
II. DEFINITIONS
a. Sanitary Sewer Overflow - Discharges of raw sewage from utility owned -
sanitary sewer systems. SSOs can release untreated sewage onto streets,
playgrounds, and into streams. SSOs are often caused by blockages in sewer
lines, breaks in the sewer tines, or pump station problems.
111. SCOPE
a. This procedure applies to all employees that may deal with SSOs. At a minimum,
these procedures will be reviewed on an annual basis or whenever revised
guidance from state or federal authorities dictates a revision is necessary.
IV. RESPONSE TIME REQUIREMENTS
a. Upon notification of a spilt or utility outage, operators or utility workers shalt
respond and take action to stop or prevent the release of untreated sewage.
However, actions may not be taken which compromise the safety of Aqua
personnel, contractors, or the public.
Page 1
V. Procedure
1. Initial Service Call
a) When a report of an SSO is received, the operator/utility worker shall notify
the supervisor immediately and advise he/she is responding to the SSO
report.
2. Initial Response
a) The operator/utility worker shalt respond immediately and confirm the SSO.
Responder shall notify their supervisor (or after-hours on -call Supervisor)_
Supervisor is required to report to the site immediately. If the Supervisor
cannot report to the site immediately, then he/she must contact their Area
Manager immediately. If the Area Manager is not available, the Director of
Operations must be contacted immediately. The Supervisor (or the
replacement supervisor) is the incident commander and takes complete
control of the event and remediation. The Collection System ORC must also
report to the spill site within twenty-four hours of spill notification.
b) The operator/utility worker shall take the following steps:
• Stop the spill.
• Contain the spill.
• Clean-up the spill.
c) The Incident Commander, Supervisor or designee, is authorized to use other
Aqua staff and contractors to minimize the harm of the wastewater release.
Contractors may be used for bypass pumping installation, vacuuming
operations, and stream clean-ups.
d) The Incident Commander shall notify the Area Manager of the SSO and the
steps being taken to mitigate event and shall ensure the collection system
ORC reports to the event asap (and within 24 hours of spilt awareness). If the
Area Manager is unavailable, then the Incident Commander shall notify the
Director of Operations.
e) Director of Environmental Compliance reserves the right to request
upstream/downstream monitoring if deemed appropriate for the situation.
3. Clean-up and Mitigation
a) Rake or vacuum all wastewater and wastewater debris from spill area.
b) Apply lime to all land surface areas. Do not put time in any surface waters,
i.e. streams, ponds, or lakes.
c) Construction equipment may not be used in streams. In very rare instances,
earthen dams may be used in streams, but require Operations Director
approval before installation.
d) Rake, seed, and straw mulch any bare areas in the spill zone.
4. Incident Commander Responsibility. A designated incident commander shall
remain at the SSO site until the SSO is under control and remediation completed. If
the event is anticipated to last longer than 8 hours, the incident commander shall
notify his/her supervisor to ensure another incident commander is assigned for the
next shift. The incident commander shall act to minimize public contact in the SSO
area and will accompany any regulators during site inspections.
Page 2
V. SSO REPORTING PROCEDURES
1, Before any SSO is reported to the state, the ORC or the Backup ORC (if permitted)
or supervisor (deemed systems) must visit and evaluate the spill site within 24 hours
(required by permit). Once evaluated, a panel consisting of the responding
operators, ORC, and Incident Commander(s) shalt discuss the spill, determine
estimated volumes and determine causes. The Incident Commander contacts the
Area Manager who will then discuss the event with the Director of Operations and
the Director of Environmental Compliance. If the spill is aver 1000 gallons or
reaches surface waters it is reportable. Reportable spills must be called into NC
DWQ within 24 hours of first knowledge of discharge. If possible, it is preferred to
contact the DWQ-Regional Office during normal business hours. The Incident
Commander must ensure the call is completed and documented. The Director of
Operations and Director of Environmental Compliance expect notice prior to the
contact with the state. Please note the state is required to be contacted within 21
hours of awareness of an SSO greater than 1000 gallons. If necessary, Press
Releases (>1000 gallons to surface water) and Public Notices (>15,000 gallons to
surface water) will be coordinated by the Director of Environmental Compliance with
assistance from the corporate communications staff.
2. During weekends and holidays when DWQ cannot be reached, The Division of
Emergency Management must be called at 1-800-858-0368. Upon arriving to
work on the first business day after the spill, DWQ must be contacted and given
the reported spill incident number.
3. Spill Written Reporting:
a. ORC and/or responding operator drafts the DEQ — 5Day Report within 48
hours of the SSO.
b. ORC forwards completed form to Incident Commander and Area Manager
for review and comment. Corrections must be made within 24 hours.
c. Area Manager provides 5-day report to Director of Environmental
Compliance and Director of Operations within 72 hours of spill. Director of
Environmental Compliance, or designee, is responsible for submitting to
DEQ within 5 business days of the event.
d. These forms must be readily available to DEQ staff for three (3) years.

Pump rebuilding, motor rewinds, and HVAC repairs for the pump stations are
contracted out. Repairs to remote monitoring equipment, and valves are
typically repaired by ANC's maintenance crews or an ANC Contractor.
1. Emergency Support
Addressing some problems may require resources beyond ANC forces. This is
particularly true of main line breaks or major pump station failures where there
is a risk of a significant sewer overflow. In these situations, ANC may enlist the
aid of contractor that specializes in these services. ANC maintains a genera(
services agreement with several companies for situations that require the
prompt reconstruction of sewer lines.
These companies are capable of mobilizing construction equipment and
personnel quickly to handle emergency assignments. ANC contract for
emergency sewer repairs requires the contractor to respond to the site within 2
hours of notification to mobilize. This response time and the level of response
will vary due to several factors, some are identified below:
• Location of the sewer repair in relation to the contractor's equipment
yard
• Scope of the repair, size of sewer, depth of sewer and volume of flow
• The size, type and availability of equipment and number of workers
• The time of day, day of the week and the proximity to a holiday
• Weather conditions, clear, rain, snow, extreme cold or heat
Spill Contractor:
In the event of a spill that cannot be controlled by ANC, Lewis Farms or ECLP,
Inc. will provide professional services for the removal and disposal of
contaminated material.
Emergency Contractor:
In the event that a pump station failure occurs that is exceeds ANC available on -
staff response; an emergency contractor will be requested to assist. Contractors
may be requested for emergency power generation, by-pass pumping situations,
or large excavations.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
A. PROBLEM: Wastewater Pump Station Alarms General Response Actions
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
• Send an individual to the station indicating an alarm as soon as possible for a
Priority Alarm. If failure is apparent, call for additional assistance and keep an
individual at the station until further instructions are received.
• Always check with the power company when an alarm goes on to see if there is
a power outage in the area, although a power failure that has not been
reported to the power company can occur at a pump station. The pole number
nearest the station should be reported.
• Personnel called in to investigate pump station alarms shall respond to the
station even if the alarm has cleared prior to their arrival. AR alarm conditions
are to be checked and logged. Use the following guidelines and follow
confined space entry procedures if applicable:
Wetwell/Drywell Type Stations
1. NA
Submersible Type Stations
1. Take all safety precautions per training.
2. Listen for any unusual noises and note if pump(s) are running.
3. Observe every piece of equipment in the station (pay specific attention to
the level control system). Note anything that looks out of place.
4. Record all gauge readings from the control panel including: wet well level,
hour meters, flow charts, on -off levels, psi gauges on pump, rpm (on VHD's)
and anything else that you feel is significant.
5. Using available information and the trouble -shooting guide, systematically
run through the system. Use a process of elimination to isolate the cause of
the failure. Check level controls, check pump operation using manual
position, check pump output by observing the check valve counterweight as
defined in the trouble shooting guide. Once the cause of the problem is
isolated, engage mechanical or electrical disciplines for repairs
6. Emergency personnel should be absolutely certain that the cause of the
pump station alarm or failure has been properly identified and corrected
prior to leaving the station.
7. Reset any/all alarm feature indicator lights.
• Check the O&M manual to trouble shoot the level sensor system and pump
controls
• Pumps may be checked easily for operation by checking the arm of the check -
valve in the discharge line of an operating pump. if it feels "spongy" (or soft)
when downward pressure is applied with the palm of the hand, the pump is
pumping. If a breaker is off and the pump motor is hot to the touch, DO NOT
attempt to reset and start. if a pump motor is simply warm, one attempt to
restart can be made. Turning the selector switch to manual will normally start a
pump, and the check vatve arm should move upwards. if the pump has lost
prime or is lugged, the check valve will not open.
B. PROBLEM: Pumping Station Failure Caused by Secondary Power Failure During
Power Outage
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
• Dispatch pump station crew to the pumping station immediately. The crew
needs to bring the auxiliary generator for that specific station as a backup,
assuming that repair to the dedicated generator cannot be made immediately.
• Upon entry, identify the storage capacity in the well. This will give some
indication of the time available for response. If flooded, skip to pump -out steps
under "Pumping Station Failure inside valve pit, pump or valve failure"
procedure.
• Dispatcher shall request the assistance of the power company in restoring
power to the station if necessary. Determine the estimated time of arrival of
the power company crew and then notify the pumping station operators.
• As they approach the pumping station, the pumping station crew should check
the overhead power tines for fuses that might have blown or down power lines.
If the crew notices a btown fuse or down power tine, identify the location and
pole number(s), and notify the dispatcher to relay this information to the power
company.
• Lock out and tag out (LOTO) the main line, disconnect (if applicable).
• Check all components of the dedicated generator to determine failure cause.
Use the manufacturer -prepared trouble -shooting guide to aid in diagnosis. If it
cannot be repaired immediately, connect the portable generator to the
auxiliary power connection located outside the building. Examine plug type and
ensure consistency. Use adapters as necessary.
• Go through the specific procedures for starting the generator to supply power
to the station.
• Obtain the services of a qualified generator repair facility to address the
dedicated generator failure.
• Once fully repaired, disconnect the portable generator and reconnect the
dedicated unit. Operate the dedicated unit through several pump cycles.
Check unit for regular exercise.
C. PROBLEM: Pumping Station Failure Inside Valve Pit, pump or valve failure
(submersible type application)
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
• Dispatch pumping station crew to the pumping station immediately.
• Prior to viewing the wetwell, measure the atmospheric conditions for sufficient
oxygen and the presence of explosive or toxic gases.
• Upon arrival the crew should identity the storage capacity in the wetwell. This
will give some indication of the time available for response. If flooded, skip to
pump -out steps.
• Inspect the main controls looking for failure indications. Check processor to
determine failure if applicable. If pump failure is determined, skip to wetwell
inspection steps.
• Inspect the valvepit. Observe all valves and force mains. If flooded, arrange to
pump out the valve pit or pump -and -haul as appropriate. If failure within the
valvepit is detected, skip to pump -out steps.
• Constantly monitor the atmospheric conditions while working in or above the
wetwell. Inspect the wetwell. Check the wetwell floats or level control system,
bar rack and pump volute area for dogging or other problems.
Pump -Out Steps
• If pump failure, determine if pump out and/or pump -and -haul is necessary. If
unnecessary, skip to repair procedures.
• Pump the flow with portable pumps if available. Call additional crew to bring
appropriate portable pump(s) including all required lengths of suction and
discharge hose, to the pumping station if necessary. Upon arrival of the
portable pump, connect the appropriate lengths of suction hose that will
suspend all the way into the wetwell, and then connect enough discharge hose
to pump into appropriate manhole or connection (if so equipped). Go through
the procedures for starting the portable pump, and begin pumping.
• If the station does not contain a force main connection point, arrange for
pump -and -haul as required.
Repair Steps
• Lock out and tag out (I_OTO) the main line, disconnect (if applicable).
• Complete repairs to pipe, pump or valve as per policy. ANC Personnel are not
allowed to perform a CSE. If a CSE is required, notify the Regional Supervisor
Immediately. A contractor will be required to complete remaining work. If
permanent materials are not readily available, instal! temporary repairs until the
permanent repairs can be completed.
• Restore facilities to normal and inspect other components of the force main
and pumping system for signs of similar failure.
• Shut down portable pumping operation. Do not disconnect hoses until repair is
checked for leaks. Operate pumps to check repair under pressure and normal
operating conditions.
• If no leaks are observed, return pumps to normal conditions by removing
LOTO. Monitor pumps to check lead/lag operations.
• Make out a report indicating the time of the call, description of the problem,
the repair work done, personnel present and equipment used.

COMPANY -WIDE WASTEWATER RULE ON FATS, OILS AND
GREASES
In an effort to curb sanitary sewer overflows and wastewater treatment process
problems caused by fats, oils and greases (FOG), Aqua North Carolina, Inc. (Aqua) has
adopted a company -wide FOG control rule. Any non -single family residential facility
connected to Aqua's sanitary sewer collection and treatment system involved in the
preparation or serving of foods may be subject to the conditions of the rule. Grease
Interceptors may also be required in non -cooking or cold dairy and frozen foodstuffs
establishments and other industrial or commercial establishments when they are deemed
necessary by Aqua for the proper handling of liquid waste containing Grease.
A. Scope and Purpose. To aid in the prevention of sanitary sewer blockages
and obstructions from contributions and accumulation of FOGs into said
sewer system from industrial or commercial establishments, particularly
food preparation and serving facilities, and to prevent problems created by
FOGs in the wastewater treatment process.
Definitions.
1. FOGs. Organic non -polar compounds derived from animal and/or
plant sources that contain multiple carbon chain triglyceride
molecules. These substances are detectable and measurable using
analytical test procedures established in 40 CFR 136, as may be
amended from time to time. All are sometimes referred to herein
as "Grease" or "Greases."
2. Grease Trap or Interceptor. A device for separating and retaining
waterborne Greases and Grease complexes prior to the wastewater
exiting the trap and entering the sanitary sewer collection and
treatment system. These devises also serve to collect settable
solids, generated by and from food preparation activities, prior to
the water exiting the trap and entering the sanitary sewer collection
and treatment system. Grease Traps and interceptors are .
sometimes referred to herein as "Grease Interceptors."
3. Cooking Establishments. Those establishments primarily engaged
in activities of preparing, serving, or otherwise making available
for consumption foodstuffs and that use one or more of the
following preparation activities: cooking by frying (all methods),
baking (all methods), boiling, blanching, roasting, toasting or
poaching. Also included are infrared heating, searing, barbecuing,
and any other food preparation activity that produces a hot, non -
drinkable food product in or on a receptacle that requires washing.
4. Non -Cooking Establishments. Those establishments primarily
engaged in the preparation of precooked foodstuffs that do not
include any form of cooking. These include cold dairy and frozen
foodstuff preparation and serving establishments. •
5. Minimum Design Capability. The design features of a Grease
Interceptor and its ability or volume required to effectively
intercept and retain Greases from grease -laden wastewater
discharged to the sanitary sewer.
6. User. Any person who contributes, causes or permits the
contribution or discharge of wastewater into the wastewater system
including persons who contribute such wastewater from mobile
sources, such as those who discharge hauled wastewater.
C. Grease Interceptor Maintenance, Record Keeping and Grease Removal.
1. Grease Interceptors, when required by Aqua, shall be installed and
maintained at the User's expense., Grease Interceptors shall be of
a type, design, and capacity approved by Aqua and shall be readily
and easily accessible for User cleaning and Aqua's inspection. All
such Grease Interceptors shall be serviced and emptied of
accumulated waste content as required in order to maintain
Minimum Design Capability or effective volume of the Grease
Interceptor, but not less often than every thirty (30) days. Users
who are required to pass through a Grease Interceptor shall:
a. provide for a minimum hydraulic retention time of 24minutes
at actual peak flow or 12 minutes at the calculated theoretical
peak flow rate as predicted by the Uniform Plumbing Code
fixture criteria, between the influent and effluent baffles with
20% of the total volume of the Grease Interceptor being
allowed for sludge to settle and accumulate identified
hereafter as a "sludge pocket."
b. remove any accumulated Grease cap and sludge pocket and
perform other maintenance as required, but at intervals of not
longer than 30 days at the Users expense. Grease
Interceptors shall be kept free of inorganic solid materials
such as grit, rocks, gravel, sand, eating, utensils, cigarettes,
shells, towels, rags, etc., which could settle into this pocket
and thereby reduce the effective volume of the Grease
Interceptor.
c. accept the following conditions: If any skimmed or pumped
wastes or other materials removed from Grease Interceptor
are treated in any fashion onsite and reintroduced back into
the Grease Interceptor as an activity of and after said onsite
