In response to your request, a willingness to serve study of the subject site has been completed and the
following has been determined:
Charlotte -Mecklenburg Utilities agrees to accept the gravity sewage flow of 45,900 gallons per day (340
apartment units x 135 gpd/unit; with 4-inch pool drain) from this project for transmission to the Sugar
Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES permit number NC0024937, 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 focal, State, or
Federal Agency, whichever might have control. Please see attached basin map.
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, dated October 2005, (WMSP # 05-01702 & 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 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. This letter expires one year from the issued date. If you have any questions, you may
contact me at [phone].
