111. Certification Statement:
I Kendra Parrish certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the receiving
wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to cause any capacity
related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station en route to the receiving
treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation of the planned improvements
identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This analysis has been performed in accordance
with local established policies and procedures using the best available data. This certification applies to
those items listed above in Sections I and 11 plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I
am the responsible party. Signature of this form certifies that the receiving collection system or treatment
works has adequate capacity to transport and treat the proposed new wastewater.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available Capacity is
0.
Pump Station (Name or Number): HS Basal Creek
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
43.6 % and 0.142 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
HS Basal Creek PS ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
N/A MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
HS Basal Creek Phase 2A _ is in design or under construction with
planned completion in July 2021 ; and/or
d. The following applies:
An upgrade to the HS Basal Creek Pump Station will be completed in partnership with a
Developer on a contributing project. It is anticipated that the improvements will be
completed for expanded capacity by July 2021.
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.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste disposal
system.
