MOD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
_ T is in design or under construction with
planned completion in ; and/or
d. The following applies:
"Capacity information rovided for the Poplar Creek WWPS is based on modified permit
dated February 10, 2022. Project is under construction to the increase the flow to the
permitted capacitor.
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-

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed ALA Johnston project is located northwest of the intersection of US
Business Highway 70 and Little Creek Church Road in Clayton, Johnston County, North
Carolina. The site consists of one parcel identified as Johnston County PIN 17JO8004
totaling 48.78 acres. The project proposes the construction of two new school buildings
(Lower and Upper Schools), a field house building, athletic field, associated parking
areas, driveways, utilities, and stormwater infrastructure to serve the project. Refer to
Figure 1 for the location map. The Owner of the project is Johnston CD, LLC.

WATER DESIGN NARRATIVE
The water distribution system for ALA Johnston is served by a new water main that
connects to an existing 16" ductile iron waterline along US Business Highway 70. Based
on the anticipated demands, it is believed that an 8" water main will adequately serve the
individual service connections within the project. The water distribution system is
designed to accommodate the installation of a single master meter on the new 8" main
near the point of connection near the northwest portion of the project along US Business
Highway 70. Fire flow is provided via the potable water distribution system. The water
distribution system has been designed to meet the required potable water demand and
fire flow demand. As future development allows, it is recommended that the system be
looped to future systems to improve flows and pressures in the area.
The proposed master meter shall be capable of measuring both potable water flows and
fire flows. Fire hydrants are provided such that all school building faces are within 250
feet of a fire hydrant. Fire Department Connections (FDC) are provided for each of the
school buildings. The FDCs are designed by others.
The total instantaneous potable demand on the system is based on contributory loadings
as specified by the State of North Carolina 15A: 18C .0400. Potable water demand
estimates are calculated as follows:
Lower School Building
1,125 students x 15 galldlstudent x (1124 hrlday) x (1160 hrlmin) x 2.5 PF 30 GPM
Upper School Building
800 students x 15 galldlstudent x (1124 hrlday) x (1160 hrlmin) x 2.5 PF -- 21 GPM
Field House Building

101.16351.00 ALA Johnston
Water and Sewer Report
The software "EPANET 2.2" is used to model the water distribution system. "EPANET
2.2" is public domain software developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
for the analysis of hydraulic and water quality behavior of pressurized pipe networks.
Refer to the "Water Model: Node Map" section included in this report for a schematic
layout of the proposed water distribution system's water model. Total estimated demand
is divided among the appropriate nodes for modeled steady state simulations. A
breakdown of estimated demand is provided in Table 1. Roughness coefficients and
minor losses are added to each proposed pipe within the system, as necessary. Refer to
the "Water Model: References" section of this report for specific methodology for
calculation of minor losses and headloss.
Several simulations are run for the project. The first simulation computes pressures
based on maximum instantaneous demand. Refer to the "Water Model: Maximum
Instantaneous Demand" section of this report for model input and results. The second
simulation models 20% of maximum instantaneous demand plus a fire flow. The fire flow
for the model is selected as 1,250 gpm and is placed at the most isolated node, FH-4. As
the State of North Carolina requires a minimum 1,000 gpm fire flow, this model is believed
to be conservative. Refer to the "Water Model: 20% Maximum Instantaneous Demand +
Fire Flow' section of this report for model input and results. The third simulation models
20% of the maximum instantaneous demand plus a sprinkler demand. Sprinkler demand
for each building is provided by others. Refer to the "Water Model: 20% Maximum
Instantaneous Demand + Sprinkler Demand" section of this report for model input and
results.

Jason,
We are hoping to obtain additional flow data from the Town of Smithfield for an existing Charter School
served by the Town.
However, please be advised that Permit WQ0017822 (approved February 10,2022) upsized the downstream
wwps, increasing capacity to 350 gpm. Upon completion of that project (currently under construction) the
wwps has a firm capacity of 504,000 gpd and permitted capacity of 201,600 gpd.
The current actual flow to the station is 62,146 gpd, and there is an additional 87,560 gpd of committed paper
flow to the station. With the permitted upgrade, there is 51,894 gpd of available capacity.
In addition, please be advised that 61,560 gpd of the 87,560 gpd of the committed paper flow to the station is
temporary only. In 2024, 61,560 gpd of existing paper flow will be diverted to the County's Reedy Branch
Wastewater Facilities (currently under construction). We anticipate one more project (Crescent Mills) being
permitted to account for the available capacity at this station (Poplar Creek WWPS) prior to 2024. However,
again, that flow will also be diverted to the County's Reedy Branch Wastewater Facilities in 2024. In addition,
based on the high percentage of "paper" flow to this station, the full volume of permitted paper flow to this
station will not be realized as actual flow prior to the flow diversion in 2024.
Please let me know if we need to discuss further.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi Eric,
I saw that DWR-staff Charlie Miller sent you letter approving a reduced flow of 11 GPD per student.
Based on that and the fact that the downstream pump station only has an available capacity of 13,000 GPD, the permit
could only be approved for 1,181 students (instead of 1,925)_

As mentioned in my last email, we have not cashed the checks for the two applications for this project, and were
awaiting the outcome of the flow reduction request.
Would you like for us to proceed with cashing the checks, reviewing the applications and issuing the permits? (Again,
the private permit would include12,991 GPD from 1,181 students).

Jason,
Thank you for the update. We are anticipating hearing from Charlie very soon. Can we hold off until tomorrow or early
next week to cash the checks? it is possible we may be able to proceed with both the public and private applications at
that time.
Thank you,

Eric & Ted,
I have not cashed either of the checks for both the public and private applications for the American Leadership
Academy in Johnston County.

As I mentioned before you submitted, I would have preferred to hold -off on submitting these applications until we
know that a flow -reduction will be approved.
At this point, would you would want us to go ahead and cash the check for the application for the 2ULig permit and go
ahead and review and issue that permit? I think we could go ahead and issue the public permit because it does not
include any flow
My plan for now is to hold -off on cashing the check for the private one, as the flow reduction is not guaranteed and
we'd need to await Charlie's decision before we could issue a permit using a reduced flow.
