Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that does not meet
15A NCAC 2T; the Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as
applicable; 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

I. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
1. This permit shall become voidable unless the agreement between Provo Land Exchange III, L.C. and the
City of Goldsboro for the collection and final treatment of wastewater is in full force and effect.
2. If, at any time, the additional wastewater flow volume made tributary to this sewer extension is
believed to exceed the value permitted herein, a modification shall be requested for this permit from
the Division of Water Resources to properly allocate the subject wastewater flow.
3. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the Division's
Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified until
corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been examined,
a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation. This shall be
done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests will be evaluated on a case -by -
case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and submitting the
construction certification.

c. An operation and maintenance plan including pump station inspection frequency, preventative
maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory and overflow response has been developed and
implemented.
d. Pump stations that are not connected to a telemetry system shall be inspected every day (i.e. 365

3. Grease education materials shall be distributed more often than required in Parts (1) and (2) of
this Subparagraph if necessary to prevent grease -related sanitary sewer overflows.
i. Right-of-ways and easements shall be maintained in the full easement width for personnel and
equipment accessibility.
j. Documentation shall be kept for Subparagraphs (a) through (i) of this Rule for a minimum of three
years with exception of the map, which shall be maintained for the life of the system.

of adequate wastewater transport, such as mechanical or electrical failures of pumps, line
blockage or breakage, etc.; or
b. Any SSO and/or spill over 1,000 gallons; or
c. Any SSO and/or spill, regardless of volume, that reaches surface water
Voice mail messages or faxed information is permissible, but this shall not be considered as the initial

knowledge of the occurrence. This report must outline the actions taken or proposed to be taken to
ensure that the problem does not recur. Part II of Form CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved
form) can also be completed to show that the SSO was beyond control.
6. Construction of the gravity sewers, pump stations, and force mains shall be scheduled so as not to
interrupt service by the existing utilities nor result in an overflow or bypass discharge of wastewater to
the surface waters of the State.
7. Per 15A NCAC 2T.0116, upon completion of construction and prior to operation of these permitted
facilities, the completed Engineering Certification form attached to this permit shall be submitted with
the required supporting documents to the address provided on the form. A complete certification is
one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are provided as applicable. Any
wastewater flow made tributary to the wastewater collection system extension prior to completion of
this Engineer's Certification shall be considered a violation of the permit and shall subject the Permittee
to appropriate enforcement actions.

mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Final record drawings should be clear on the
plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and are defined as the design drawings that are marked
up or annotated with after construction information and show required buffers, separation
distances, material changes, etc.
b. One copy of the supporting pump station design calculations (selected pumps, system curve,
operating point, buoyancy calculations, available storage if portable generator(s) or storage greater
than longest past three year outage reliability option selected) for any pump stations permitted as
part of this project.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations, or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification in
the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required. for any changes resulting in
non-compliance with this permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased flow,
pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and increases in the number/type of
connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested modifications or variances to the
Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case -by -case basis and each on its own merit. Please
note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be requested and approved during the
permitting process prior to construction. After -construction requests are discouraged by the Division
and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or repair prior to certification & activation.
8. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of
the wastewater collection facilities.
9. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the Division's
Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's Minimum Design
Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000 as

construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities, and/or referral of the North
Carolina -licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board.
10. 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.
11. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by other govemment agencies (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
