SUBJECT: WATER AND SANITARY SEWER FLOW ACCEPTANCE
TRIVENY COMMONS
TAX PARCEL #211-251-05
C-MU# 600-05-587
Dear Mr. Cook:
In response to your request, a flow acceptance study of the subject site has been completed and it has been
determined that the discharge from this project does transmit through the Lansbury Court SSO area of concern by the
NCDENR, Division of Water Quality. Please see attached map.
Upon completion and acceptance of all necessary sewer lines, Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utilities (C-MU) agrees to
accept the gravity sewage flow of 0 gallons per day (No additional flow, previously permitted WQ0020208) from this
project for transmission to the McAlpine Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES permit number NC0024970, for
treatment. This acceptance of flow is based on the existing capacity of the designated publicly owned treatments
works; which is contingent upon final acceptance and issuance of a discharge permit from the appropriate local,
State, or Federal Agency, whichever might have control.
This proposed project's discharge will transmit through the "Lansbury Court SSO" area, as identified by the NCDENR,
Division of Water Quality. Since the completion of limited cleaning and repairs, continued inspections, preventive
maintenance, and the continuation of ongoing projects, C-MU believes it can effectively convey the sewer discharge
from this project to the receiving WWTP without resulting in sewer overflows.
Upon completion and acceptance of all necessary water mains, C-MU agrees to furnish water to the subject project.
The water quality to the subject project is regulated by the State Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1986 and The
Water Supply Management Plan, dated January 2000, (WSMP # 00-00251 & PWS ID # 0160010), on file with the
Public Water Supply Section of NCDENR. However, C-MU cannot guarantee a constant pressure or quality of flow.
This agreement is also contingent upon approval by the Division of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources.
C-MU does not expect any of the above conditions to preclude water or sewer service to the subject site. However,
the applicant should understand that due to the involvement of other agencies and continuing growth of the water and
sewer system, the ability to provide service for future projects cannot be guaranteed nor reserved. Connection to the
C-MU system is accepted on a first come, first served basis. If you have any questions, please contact me at (704)
391-5129.

Dear Mr. Cook:
Icswwq
JuN 'a' Z00%
DPR ASSOCIATES
In response to your request, a flow acceptance study pf the subject site has been completed and the
following has been determined:
Upon completion and acceptance of all necessary sewer lines, Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utilities agrees to
accept the sewage flow of 2,025 gallons per day (15 units x 135 gpd/unit) from this project for
transmission to the McAlpine Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES permit number NC0024970, for
treatment, This acceptance of flow is based on the existing capacity of the designated publicly owned
treatments works; which is contingent upon final acceptance and issuance of a discharge permit from the
appropriate local,'State, or Federal Agency, whichever might have control. Connection to the C-MU
system is accepted on a first come, first served basis, as capacity for future projects cannot be
guaranteed.
Upon completion and acceptance of all necessary water mains, Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utilities agrees to
furnish water to the subject project. The water quality to the subject project is regulated by the State
Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1986 and The Water Supply Management Plan (WMSP # 00-00251 &
PWS ID # 0160010) on file with the Public Water Supply Section of NCDENR. However, C-MU cannot
guarantee a constant pressure or quality of flow. This agreement is also contingent upon approval by the
Division of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources,
Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utilities does -not expect any of the above conditions preclude water or sewer
service to the subject site. However, the applicant should understand that due to the involvement of other
agencies and continuing growth of the water and sewer system, the ability to provide service for future
projects cannot be guaranteed nor reserved.
If you have any questions, you may contact me at (704) 391-5171,
