Sewer Project Narrative
For
Bryson's Ridge Subdivision
JUL 19 2022
Raleigh Regional Office
Bryson's Ridge Subdivision at Spring Hope is a residential development that consists of
185 lots and will be located on a 71.83 Ac. parcel. The wastewater generated by this
residential area was calculated using the daily flow of 80 gal.'day per bedroom per the
Residential Flow Reduction Approval letter for WQCS00206 dated 2./312022. The flow
allocated per lot is for 3 bedrooms which totals a daily flow for the project of 44,400
GPD. It will consist of 100% residential flow. The sewer system will be constructed of
approximately 9,432 LF of 8-inch SDR-35 PVC and 85 LF of 8-inch DIP gravity sewer
line including 36 new manholes. The newly permitted system will flow to the existing
NC-581 North Pump Station. The pump station will be upsized to handle the additional
flow. The NC-581 North Pump Station will flow to the Country Inn Lift Station which
will also need increased pump size for the additional flow. Both lift station improvements
are listed on the attached permit. The wastewater treatment plant facility that will be
handling this flow is the Spring Hope WWTF (Permit # NC 0020061). The permitted
flow for the WWTF is 0.4 MGD and after the allocation of the Bryson's Ridge
Subdivision's flow the WWTF will be allocated at 57.3% of its total capacity.
