nstruciions for: Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension Permit Applications (FTSE) and
Planning Assessment Addendum (PAA)
Section I
a. WWTP Facility Name: Enter the name of the WWTP that will receive the wastewater flow.
b. WWTP Facility Permit #: Enter the NPDES or Non -Discharge number for the WWTP receiving the
_ wastewater flow.
c. WWTP facility's permitted flow, MGD: From WWTP owner's NPDES or Non -Discharge permit.
d. Estimated obligated flow not yet tributary to the WWTP, MGD: This includes flows allocated to
other construction projects not yet contributing flow to the collection system. Flows allocated through
interlocal agreements or other contracts not yet contributing flow to the collection system are also
included. For POTWs that implement a pretreatment program, include flows allocated to industrial
users who may not be using all of their flow allocation. Please contact your Pretreatment Coordinator
for information on industrial flow tributary to your WWTP.
As of January 15, 2008 the POTW should have reviewed flow allocations made over the last two
years and reconciled their flow records, to the best of their ability, so it is known how much flow has
been obligated and is not yet been made tributary to the WWTP, in accordance with local policies and
procedures employed by the reporting entity.
The obligated flow not yet tributary plus actual flow will be reconciled annually for systems at less
than 60% of permitted flow used. Annual updates shall be submitted to the appropriate Regional
Office by January 15 of each year and cover the previous calendar year.
Semi -Annual updates shall be required when the percent of permitted flow used reaches 60%. Semi-
annual time period are defined as January 1 through June 30 and July 1 through December 31. Semi-
annual updates shall be submitted to the appropriate Regional Office by July 15 and January 15 of
each year.
Quarterly updates shall be required when the percent of permitted flow used reaches 80%. Quarters
are defined as Qtrl (Jan -Feb -Mar); Qtr2 (Apr -May -Jun); Qtr3 (Jul -Aug -Sep); Qtr4 (Oct -Nov -Dec).
Quarterly updates shaII be submitted to the appropriate Regional Office by April I5, July 15, October
15 and January 15 of each year.
e. WWTP facility's actual avg. flow, MGD: Previous 12 month average.
f. Total flow for this specific request, MGD: Enter the requested flow volume.
g. Total actual and obligated flows to the facility, MGD Equals [d + e + f]
h. Percent of permitted flow used: Equals [(g / c)* 100]
Page 4 of 6
FTSE 08-13

'for example:
On January 15 a POTW with a permitted flow of 6.0 MGD, reported to the Regional Office that there
is 0.5 MGD of flow that is obligated but not yet tributary. The annual average flow for 2007 is 2.7
MGD. There is a proposed flow expansion of 0.015 MGD.
The first Form FTSE submitted after January 15, 2008 may have numbers like this:
c. = 6.0 MGD
d. = 0.5 MGD
e. = 2.7 MGD
f. = 0.015 MGD
g. = 3.215 MGD
h. = 53.6 %
The next Form FTSE may be updated like this with a proposed flow expansion of 0.102 MGD:
c. = 6.0 MGD
d. = 0.515 MGD
e. = 2.73 MGD
f. = 0.102 MGD
g. = 3.349 MGD
h.=55.8%
Each subsequent Form FTSE- will be updated in the same manner.
Section II
List the pump station name or number and approximate pump station firm capacity, approximate design
average daily flow (A) approximate current average daily flow (B), and the obligated, not yet tributary
flow through the pump station (C) for each pump station that will be impacted by the proposed sewer
extension project. Calculate the total current flow plus obligated flow (D=B+C) and the available
capacity (E=A-D). Include the proposed flow for this project with other obligated flows that have been
approved for the pump station but are not yet tributary (C).
Firm capacity is the maximum pumped flow that can be achieved with the largest pump out of service as
per the Minimum Design Criteria.
Design Average Daily Flow is the firm capacity of the pump station divided by a peaking factor (pf) of
not less than 2.5.
If the available capacity (E) for any pump station is < 0, then prepare a planning assessment for that pump
station if the system has future specific plans related to capacity that should be considered in the
permitting process.

Planning Assessment Addendum Instructions
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where available
capacity is < 0.
A planning assessment for Kaw Creek PS (see example data above) may be performed to evaluate
whether there is significant likelihood that needed improvements or reductions in obligated flows will be
in place prior to activating the flows from the proposed sewer extension project.
If the system decides to accept the flow based on a planning assessment addendum, it is responsible to
manage the flow without capacity related sanitary overflows and must take all steps necessary to
complete the project or control the rate of flow to prevent sanitary sewer overflows.
The planning assessment may identify a funded project currently in design or construction, or a planned
project in the future not yet funded but in a formal plan adopted by the system. The system should
carefully weigh the certainty of successful timely project completion for any expansion, flow
management diversion or infiltration and inflow elimination projects that are the foundation of a planned
solution to capacity tracking and acceptance compliance.
For example:
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of obligated, not yet tributary flow accounts for 24 % and 0.080
MGD of the committed flow in Pump Station Kaw Creek; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately 0.0I
MGD per year; and that
c. A funded capital project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
is in design or under construction with
planned completion in ; and/or
d. The following applies:
The master plan and ten year capital plan contain recommended scope and funding for a capital project
entitled Kaw Creek Pump Station upgrade with funding planned in July 2014. Thisproject is planned to
add 0.100 MGD to the firm capacity of the pump station by October 2015. Inclusion of this proposed
capital project as a condition of this Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension Permit Application
elevates this project's priority for funding and construction to be implemented ahead of the activation of
obligated, noyet tributary flows in amounts that exceed the firm pump station capacities identified in
Section II above.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to allow
this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in the system
infrastructure.

As we discussed last week, the owner of I3alsozn Ridge Business Park in Denver, NC is applying for a per -
modification to include the remaining nine lots in his park, When this was originally permitted, Lincoln
County's wastewater treatment plant was near capacity. So, Lincoln County only permitted fifty percent of the
lots (9 lots). Since that time, the plant has been expanded and the owner needs to permit the remaining nine lots.
All of the sewer was constructed. with the original permit, so we are only requesting a flow modification.
Attached for your approval are the f illowing item:
1.. Cover letter
One original and one copy of the application (ETA-10-14),
3, New Developer's Operational Agreement
4. Color USGS Map
5. Street Level Map
6, 480.00 Application Fee
7. Plow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension.--_—FTSF 08-1
8. Flow Acceptance Fetter from Lincoln County
The Developer"s operational agreement and tJSGS map for the site was submitted with the t riginal permit.
se let me know if you have any questions or need any additional infonnation.
Sincerely,
Latham-Wangincerin, Inc.
