In the Matter of
Application by Heater Utilities, Inc., Post Office } ORDER APPROVING
Drawer 4889, Cary, North Carolina, 27519, for } BOND, GRANTING
Authority to Transfer the Franchise to Provide } TRANSFER, CANCELING
Water and Sewer Utility Service in Woodlake } FRANCHISE, AND
Country Club in Moore County, North Carolina, } REQUIRING CUSTOMER
from Woodlake' Water and Sewer Company, Inc. } NOTICE
BY THEM COMMISSION: On February23, 1999 Heater Utilities, Inc. Heater or
� (
Applicant), filed an application with the Commission seeking authority to transfer the
franchise for providing water and sewer utility service in Woodlake Country Club in Moore
County, North Carolina, from Woodlake Water and Sewer Company, Inc. (Woodlake). The
Applicant's proposed rates are the same as currently approved for Woodlake. The
Woodlake system serves approximately 455 water and 355 sewer customers and
approximately 372 water and sewer availability customers.
Heater has entered into a purchase agreement with Woodlake to purchase the
existing water and sewer facilities at a purchase price of $1,000,000. As an additional
purchase price, Heater shall pay Woodlake $400 (or 50% of the Commission approved
connection fee for Woodlake, which ever is greater) for each new connection made to the
existing water 'mains and $400 (or 50% of the Commission approved connection fee for
Woodlake, which ever is greater) for each new connection made to the existing wastewater
mains. The contract for transfer is conditioned upon Heater's obtaining Commission
approval of the transfer.
Heater believes that the cost of the plant acquired, net of contributions in aid of
construction and accumulated depreciation, will be greater that the total purchase price
(including the $400 per connection payments). The Public Staff indicated that it believes
that -the net plant acquired may actually be less than the total purchase price, resulting in
a debit acquisition adjustment. However, Heater has agreed that the debit acquisition
adjustment, if any, will not be included in determining rates in any future rate proceeding.
The Public Staff has recommended approval of the transfer.
On April 20, 1999, the Commission issued an Order requiring customer notice and
stating that the',application in this matter may be determined without public hearing if no
significant protests are received subsequent to customer notice. The Certificate of Service
was properly filed. There were four letters from customers with questions related to the
P P Y
availability rates. The Public Staff has addressed their concerns.
On the basis of the verified application and the records of the Commission, the
Commission makes the following
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. Hieater presently holds franchises for approximately 170 water systems and
nine sewer systems and serves approximately 14,370 water and 1,435 sewer customers
(not including systems newly acquired from Mid South). Heater's record of service is
satisfactory.
2. The Woodlake service area included in this transfer serves approximately
455 water and 355 sewer customers and approximately 372 water and sewer availability
customers.
3. The Public Staff has recommended that Heater be required to post a
$100,000 bond for the Woodlake service area. Heater currently has $3,000,000 of bonds
posted with the Commission. Of this amount, $2,131,000 of bond surety is assigned to
specific subdivisions and $869,000 of bond surety is unassigned.
1
4. Heater has the technical, managerial, and financial capacity to provide water
and sewer utility service in this service area.
5. Hieater has filed all exhibits required with the application.
Based upon the foregoing, the Commission is of the opinion that $100,000 of
PP
Heater's unassigned bond surety should be assigned to the former Woodlake service
area, the transfer of the water and sewer utility franchise should be granted, and the
requested rates should be approved.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED as follows:
1. That $100,000 of the $869,000 unassigned bond surety shall be assigned
to the former Woodlake service area. The remaining unassigned bond surety shall be

Dear Mr. Chester:
In a letter dated November 6, 1989, you requested that this office
certify that the wastewater treatment facility at Woodlake Country Club
fulfills all Division of Environmental Management's permit requirements.
The wastewater treatment plant located at Woodlake Country Club operates
under NPDES discharge permit No. NC0061719. This facility has been construct-
ed in accordance with plans and specifications submitted with the original
permit application. The facility is permitted for a 1.0 mgd flow; however,
due to the treatment units currently constructed, the design capacity is
.3 mgd.
Monthly monitoring data indicates that the current flows into this system
are well below the design .300 mgd, and it is the opinion of this office that
the addition of 50 residential sewer customers could be easily treated by this
system.
This facility consistently meets final effluent limitations and is
considered to be in compliance with all NPDES permit requirements.

Dear Mr. Dobson;

As we discussed in our recent meeting, Woodlake
Utilities would like to receive a letter from the
Division of Environmental Management to document:
1. The system meets the basic design and
operational standards of DEM.
2. The most recent inspection, (or reports
submitted by the operator), indicates the
system to be in basic compliance with DEM
regulations.
3. The waste water treatment plant is
operating below its design capacity of
300,000 gpd, with peak flows reported in
the past four months not exceeding 110,000
gpd•
4. The addition of 50 residential sewer
customers would be well within the permit
requirements, assuming that the facility
continued to be operated and maintained in
accordance with standard operating
procedures.
The Public Water Supply Branch of DHS has prepared
a letter dated November 3, 1989. I submit this as
a suggestion of the format that is useful to us.
Obviously, your department will prepare a response
appropriate to the DEM regulations, but I hope it
may be helpful.
