Union County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Putnam,
In accordance with your application received on February 27, 2007, we are forwarding herewith
Permit No. WQ0022768, dated April 16, 2007, to the Union County Public Works 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the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified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.
This permit provides for the construction of a 20,550-foot force main segment. Due to odors and
corrosive issues that would be expected when the line is not operating at design capacity, it is
suggested that the Permittee implement a maintenance program that will address any such negative
effects.
Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that does
not meet 1) 15A 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 Statute
§143-215.6A through §143-215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection
facilities, and/or referral of the North Carolina -licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board.

granted to Union County Public Works for the construction and operation of approximately 68 linear feet
of 8-inch gravity sewer, 10,913 linear feet of 3-inch force main, a 63 gallon per minute pump station
(with duplex pumps, on -site audible and visual high water alarms, and a permanent generator w/ATS),
as part of the of the West Union Elementary School project and the discharge of 12,000 gallons per day
of collected domestic wastewater into the Union County existing sewerage system, pursuant to the

Sewer Minimum Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996, as applicable; the Division's Minimum
Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000,
as applicable; and other supporting data subsequently filed and approved by the Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and considered a part of this permit.
The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the Union County
WWTP (Twelve Mile Creek NPDES No. NC0085359) prior to being discharged into the receiving
stream.

shall be submitted to the Division accompanied by documentation from the parties involved, and
other supporting materials as may be appropriate. The approval of this request shall be
considered on its merits and may or may not be approved.

9. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including
those as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement
facilities.

(local, state and federal) which have jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable river buffer
rules in 15A NCAC 2B .0200, erosion and sedimentation control requirements in 15A NCAC Ch. 4
and under the Division's General Permit NCG010000, and any requirements pertaining to wetlands

of adequate wastewater transport, such as mechanical or electrical failures of pumps, line
blockage or breakage, etc.; or
b. Any failure of a pumping station or sewer line resulting in a by-pass directly to receiving waters
without treatment of all or any portion of the influent to such station or facility.
