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.
2. 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 fleld 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.

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

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-compllance 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
