III. Certification Statement:
I _1 '. , I' 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.

Wake County Public School System proposes to construct the new Felton Grove High School to the West
of Stephenson road off of Derry Down lane and Thriftwood drive in Apex, NC. Proposed construction
will include the high school building, associated parking, drop off areas for passenger & buses, as well as
athletic facilities, stormwater control measures and utility extensions.
This site proposes private and public sanitary sewer mains.
The public sewer is approximately 3,391-If of 8-in gravity sewer, 3,053-1f of 16-in gravity sewer and
2,002-If of 24-in gravity sewer that runs southwest to an existing Town of Apex pump station. The Town
of Apex will be permitting the Public sanitary sewer main.
The private sewer is approximately 1,635-1f of 8-in DIP gravity sewer and 92-1f of 8-in PVC gravity
sewer that runs to the southwest of the site and connects to the public Town of Apex sanitary sewer main.
This is the portion of sanitary sewer that is being permitted with this application.
The site is not located within a special flood hazard area as determined by FEMA and depicted on FIRM
Map # 3720072100J dated May 2, 2006 and FIRM Map #3720072000J date May 2, 2006.
The project does require coverage/authorization under a 404 Nationwide and 401 water quality
certification. These have been obtained and the permit numbers are as follows:
401 Water Quality Certification Approval: DWR#20210712
USACE Action ID No.: SAW-2020-00524
The new high school building will house classrooms, gymnasium and locker rooms and cafeteria. The
anticipated average daily flow was estimated utilizing 12-gpd for each seat in the classroom spaces.
ADF = [I 5-gpd/student x 2,350 students] = 35,250-gpd
The proposed public gravity sewer main will owned and maintained by the Town of Apex. Treatment
will be provided by the Apex WRF, permit number NC0064050.
