RE: Balsam Place Sanitary Sewer Improvements Project
Fast -Track Application
Dear Sir/Madam:

Operations Section
Washington Regional Office
The above referenced project consists of approximately 708 linear feet of 8-inch PVC gravity
sewer to serve eleven (11) residences. The proposed flow is calculated assuming each residence
consists of three (3) bedrooms. The proposed sewer line is sized using the minimum pipe size and
minimum grade per current NCDENR gravity sewer guidelines.
I am enclosing the following items concerning the referenced project:
• One original and one copy of the completed Fast -Track Application for Gravity
Sewers, Pump Stations, and Force Mains (FTA 10-14);
• One original and one copy of the Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension
Permit Application (FTSE 8-13);
• One original each of the USGS Topographic Map and Street Level Map identifying
the entire project area and closest surface waters. Maps also shows the location of
the downstream connection point;
• City of Goldsboro Check No. 121111 in the amount of $480.00 for the application
fee.
Your review and approval of this project is respectfully requested. If you have any questions,
please contact me at (919) 580-4377.

Submittal of this application and form FTSE 08-13 indicates that owner has adequate capacity
and will not violate G.S. 143-215.67(a).
Intergovernmental agreements or other contracts will not be accepted in lieu of a project -specific
FTSE 08-13.

systems must be submitted for a full technical review and must be submitted to the PERCS Unit on
application forms provided by the Division.
K. Flow Direction
Many wastewater treatment systems are entering into agreements for regionalization efforts and
emergency treatment capacity. Parts of the system are installed so that the wastewater flow can be
directed to more than one treatment facility. If this is the case with the project, please indicate in B(12)
and give the permit number of the second facility.
L. Certifications — Section C
• The application must be certified by both the applicant and the design engineer who is a North Carolina

III. Certification Statement:
I Scott A. Stevens 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 indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.

FTSE PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section 11 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
2.42 % and 0.004 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
New Hope Road PS ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
0.002 MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
2015 Priority Sewer Rehabilitation - Phases is in design or under construction with
1-3
planned completion in 1 year ; and/or
d. The following applies:
Significant inflow/infiltration is contributing to the current average daily flow. The 2015
Priority Sewer Rehabilitation Phases 1-3 project will significantly reduce the inflow/
infiltration and thus reduce the current average daily flow.
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.
1 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.
