Dear Mr. Haywood:
In accordance with your application received on September 11, 2006, we are forwarding
herewith Permit No. WQ0030826, dated September 22, 2006, for the construction and operation of the
subject wastewater collection system extension. This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance
until rescinded and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. This cover
letter shall be considered a part of this permit and is therefore incorporated therein by reference.
Please pay particular attention to Permit Condition 3 which requires that the wastewater
collection facilities be properly operated and maintained in accordance with 15A NCAC 2T .0403 or any
individual system -wide collection system permit issued to the Permittee.
Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that does
not meet 1) I5A NCAC 2T; 2) the Division of Water Quality's (Division) Gravity Sewer Minimum
Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996, as applicable; 3) and the Division's Minimum Design
Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000, as
applicable, unless specifically mentioned herein. Division approval is based on acceptance of the
certification provided by a North Carolina -licensed Professional Engineer in the application. It shall be
the Permittee's responsibility to ensure that the as -constructed project meets the appropriate design
criteria and rules. Failure to comply may result in penalties in accordance with North Carolina General
