III. Certification Statement:
I Michael Wagner 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.

Flow Reduction Approval

d Ala"
On September 10, 2001, the Division of Water Quality Non Discharge Permitting Unit received your
flow reduction request for future and present, but not yet tributary, single-family dwellings in the Town of
Fuquay-Varina. The letter requests approval of a residential flow value of 220 GPD/residence for these
dwellings.
The information provided water use information for 2000 and actual daily waste water flow recordings
for their peak month of May. Other supporting data was provided. The evaluation covered 90 homes that are
representative of the subdivisions in Fuquav-Varina in accordance with 15A NCAC 211.02190)(3).
Based on the information submitted, the Division hereby approves the use of 75 GPD per bedroom
per dwelling for residential units (225 GPD per three bedroom home) in all applicable non -discharge permit
applications for future sewer he extensions and present, but not yet tributary projects for the,Town of Fuquay-
Varina. The Division did note that the average flow per residence in February 2000 was 271 GPD. Regardless
of the adjusted design dailv wastewater flow rate at no time shall the wastewater flows exceed the effluent
limits defined in the Town's NPDES pern it for the'treatment facility or exceed the capacity of the sewers
downstream of any new sewer extension
Please submit a separate letter to the Raleigh Regional Office that I requests flow reductions for
specific previously permitted projects (indicate permit number, project nanne,_permitted flow, new flow
under reduction and the difference between themt). If you have any questions or comments regarding this
matter, please contact Marie Doklovic at [phone] ext. 371.
