The new 8" gravity sewer will ultimately be served by a new regional pump station (PS No.2) located behind State Employees' Credit Union, along US117. The new gravity sewer and regional pump station are to be permitted separately. This permitting request will redirect White Tractor Pump Station flow by constructing approximately 1,340 linear feet of 4" PVC sewer force main. The existing White Tractor Pump Station pre -dates NCDEQ use of WQ-prefix permits. Therefore, there is no existing permit on record. Please find enclosed the following documentation: • One (1) hard and One (1) digital copy of application form. • One (1) hard and One (1) digital copy of 8.5 x 11 color USGS topographic map • One (1) hard and One (1) digital copy of 8.5 x 11 street map • One (1) hard and One (1) digital copy of Project Narrative • $480 check (permit fee) Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss.

MC SuYercenter i PROPOSED 4" FORCE MAIN �111 v,-MCKIM&CIZEED PROJECT DESIGN NARRATIVE TO: Town of Burgaw FROM: Jess Powell, PE DATE: September 14, 2021 RE: US HWY 117 Regional Pump Station and Force Main Project Fast Track Sewer Permit - NCDEQ White Tractor Pump Station Force Main Redirect M&C#: 04576-0012 The Town of Burgaw has identified the need for a new regional wastewater pump station (PS No. 2) and force main to serve an unsewered area, east of US Highway 117. In addition to the new wastewater pump station, the project will include redirecting flow from the existing White Tractor Pump Station to the new station via a combination of approximately 2,600 linear feet of 8" gravity sewer and 4" sewer force main. The project will involve the design and permitting of: ✓ 450 GPM wastewater pump station ✓ 7,700 linear feet of 8-inch PVC sewer force main ✓ 1,340 linear feet of 4-inch PVC sewer force main ✓ 1,220 linear feet of 8-inch PVC sanitary sewer Note that the pump station, 8-inch sewer force main, and gravity sewer will be permitted separately as a new permit. White Tractor Pump Station was constructed prior to NCDEQ use of WQ-prefix permitting; therefore, there is no record of an existing permit. White Tractor Pump Station currently discharges through a 4" force main and has the following components: ✓ Wet well depth =16 ft ✓ Wet well diameter = 6 ft ✓ Wet well invert depth = 12.33 ft ✓ Pump model number #JSV3D60-E4 230/3 ✓ Impeller diameter = 8.15 inches ✓ Impeller speed =1750 RPM 04576-0012 1 September 2021 US HWY 117 Regional Pump Station and Force Main ✓ Pumping Rate = 115 GPM ✓ Pump Head = 42 ft ✓ Horsepower = 4 HP Please note that this project does not modify the existing pump station but simply re -directs the flow through a new 4" PVC sewer force main to ultimately be served by a new regional pump station (permitted separately). The redirect will alleviate flow on the existing collection system. The requested permitting action is to approve the construction of approximately 1,340 linear feet of 4" PVC force main to redirect flow from the existing White Tractor Pump Station to the new regional pump station.
