lands through filing of a Declaration of Unit Ownership (hereinafter Declaration), pursuant to Chapter47C
or 47F of the North Carolina General Statutes.
5. The COMMISSION desires to assure that the Disposal System of the Development is properly constructed,
maintained and operated in accordance with law and permit provisions in order to protect the quality of the
waters of the State and the public interest therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the benefits to be derived by each of the parties hereto,
the COMMISSION and ASSOCIATION do hereby mutually agree as follows:
I. The ASSOCIATION shall construct the Disposal System and/or make any additions or modifications to the

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. 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.
9. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life
of the wastewater collection facilities.
10. Per 15A NCAC 2T.0305 (h)(2), each pump station shall be clearly and conspicuously posted using a
weatherproof sign with a pump station identifying name/number, 24-Hour Emergency telephone
number, and name of the owner/operator of the sewer system/pump station and instructions to call
the number in the event of alarm activation or other emergency. Simplex pump stations or vacuum
sewer pits serving a single-family residence may have a placard or sticker on the control panel in lieu
of a sign.
11. 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 applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an
enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes §143-215.6A
