This private sanitary sewer application will serve a new classroom building at 7905 Pleasant
Grove Road in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (Parcel ID: 03517829). The
private modification to be permitted will consist of 146-LF of new 6-inch PVC gravity sewer.
The proposed private gravity sewer main will discharge to an existing private 8-inch PVC
gravity system service line on the property, which will then discharge to a public 8-inch PVC
sewer system that is owned and operated by Charlotte Water (PWS ID# 0160010). Ultimately,
wastewater flows will terminate at the McAlpine Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant (Permit #
NC0024970).
The total flow increase as a result of this project is approximately 6,250 gallons per day (gpd).
addition to this cover letter, the following items are being submitted as part of the sewer
extension application package:
• Executed FTA 04-16
• Application Fee - $480
• Flow Acceptance Letter
• Flow Tracking / Acceptance Form (FTSE 04-16)
• Site Map — 8.5"xl l" USGS Topographic Map
• 8.5"x11" Aerial Map
• Original permit package
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if there is any additional information that

SUBJECT: WATER AND SEWER FLOW ACCEPTANCE
MOUNTAIN ISLAND LAKE ACADEMY GYM & CLASSROOM ADDITION
7905 PLEASANT GROVE ROAD, CHARLOTTE, NC 28216
CLTWATER TRACKING# 2022262
After analysis of the sanitary sewer associated with the proposed design of project, 2022262,
MOUNTAIN ISLAND LAKE ACADEMY GYM & CLASSROOM ADDITION, it was determined that
there is sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed sewer flow of 6,250 gallons per day (25
fixtures x 250 gpd/fixture) at the connection point(s) indicated on the submitted utility plan for
transmission to the McAlpine Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES permit number
NC0024970, for treatment. This acceptance of flow is based upon the existing capacity of the
designated publicly owned treatments works.
Please see attached NCDEQ-FTSE form.
Charlotte Water (CLTWater) 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, PWS ID # 0160010 on file with the Public Water Supply Section of
NCDEQ. However, CLTWater cannot guarantee a constant pressure or quality of flow.
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 CLTWater and sewer system is accepted on a first
come, first served basis.
The applicant should understand that this letter is not authorization to construct or extend private
water or sewer systems, as the appropriate local or State permits are required prior to construction.
if the appropriate authorization to construct permits are not obtained and construction has not
started within two (2) years of issuance of this flow acceptance, and payment for any service
connections have not been received within two (2) years of issuance of this flow acceptance letter,
this flow acceptance approval shall be rescinded and a new flow acceptance request must be made.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone].

III. Certification Statement:
Kern Cantrell certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the
receiving wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to cause any
capacity related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station en route to the
receiving treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation of the planned
improvements identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This analysis has been performed
in accordance with local established policies and procedures using the best available data. This
certification applies to those items listed above in Sections I and II plus all attached planning assessment
addendums for which I am the responsible party. Signature of this form certifies that the receiving
collection system or treatment works has adequate capacity to transport and treat the proposed new
wastewater.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available Capacity is <
0.
Pump Station (Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
14.5 % and 1.029 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
Long Creek and Paw Creek ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet'tributary capacity is currently approximately
1.029 MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
Stowe Regional Water Resource Recovery Facility is in design or under construction with
planned completion in 2025 ; and/or Paw Creek FM Replacement - 2022
Paw Creek Pump Station Improvements - 2022
d. The following applies:
Charlotte Waters Capital Improvement Plan has allocated funds for improvements to the Paw Creek Pump Station Improvements and a new Stowe
Regional Water Resource Recovery Facility ("Stowe Regionar). The design plan is for Stowe Regional to use the Long Creek Pump Station (LCPS)
to house the second stage pumps of its influent pump station. In the short term, LCPS will also continue to house pumps which export flow to Paw Creek PS
("Paw Creek export pumps"). Currently LCPS has 8 MGD of export capacity, which will be increased to 12 MGD (firm) by the end of 2023.
Stowe Regional is under design and expected to come online in 2025. Before Stowe Regional Is brought online, a new headworks and Influent Pumping Station
building will be constructed adjacent to the LCPS, which will house the first stage infitien mps for Stowe and be the Paw Creek export pumps.
Currently, Long Creek and Paw Creek operate as a combined system with the Long Creek pump station able to transfer flows to flow equalization
tanks during peak flow events and then meter out flow to Paw Creek as conditions allow.
Paw Creek Pump Station was awarded a permit on 8/27/2020 to increase firm pumping capacity to 20 MGD. Construction on this project has begun,
and this project is anticipated to be substantially complete mid -April 2022.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to allow
this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in the system
infrastructure.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste disposal
system.
