RE: Kanuga Trails
Fast Track Sewer Application
Enclosed is a submittal package for the above referenced project. Our client is proposing
a nine (9) unit residential development on Kanuga Road in Hendersonville NC. There are nine
(9) 5/8" water meters, twenty (23) 4" sewer cleanouts, four (4) manholes, and approximately 214
LF of 8" PVC/SDR-35 and 258 LF of 8" DIP sewer extension to service the proposed units. The
wastewater generated by this project is estimated at 3,240 GPD. Please let us know if you have
any questions or require additional information for your review and approval.
