I Chris Rollins 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 Request
Alamance County
Dear Mr. Wilson:
Coleen H. Sullins Dee Freeman
Director NC Dept Secretary
March 15, 2011 p of Environmental Quality
MAY 8 - 2023
Raleigh Regional Office
On February 14, 2011, the Pretreatment, Emergency Response and Collection System (PERCS) Unit of
the Division of Water Quality received a flow reduction request for connections to the City of Mebane WWTP.
The letter requests an allowable flow rate of 80 gallons per day (gpd) per bedroom based on the evaluated data.
As daily WWTP data is not representative of the project area, the DMR data from the City of Mebane
WWTP (NC0021474) from January 2009 through December 2009 was evaluated to determine the peak sewage
month. The highest flow month was December 2009. Daily wastewater flows were recorded downstream of
the Holly Ridge Subdivision during December 2010. This data was reviewed by PERCS and Regional Office
staff.
Based on the data, the Division hereby grants a reduction in flow to 80 gpd/bedroom (minimum of 160
gpd for 1 and 2 bedroom residences) for sewer extension permits issued tributary to the City of Mebane
WWTP.
Regardless of the adjusted design daily wastewater flow rate, at no time shall the wastewater flows
exceed the effluent limits defined in the NPDES permit for the treatment facility or exceed the capacity of the
sewers downstream of any new sewer extension or service connection(s).
If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact Sarah Morrison at (919)
807-6310, or email [[e-mail]] or Deborah Gore, Unit Supervisor at [phone], or
email [[e-mail]].
Sincerely,

Fast Track Sewer System Extension application and attachments.
Protect Narrative:
DRPB Hospitality, LLC consists of 2 hotels (hotel east 4- story 103 rooms) (hotel west 4-story 80
rooms) and a 2 story 5,000 SF building for offices over retail and associated utilities, sidewalks,
amenities, and parking lots on 7.12 acres of land. The site is located on Lowes Boulevard south
of 1-85/40 and west of NC Hwy 119 in Mebane, North Carolina and identified with Orange
County Parcel PIN # 9804-93-7529. The development of this site will require a public sewer
extension to connect to the City of Mebane sewer system. The gravity sewer extension will
consist of 5 new manholes, 670 LF of 8" SDR-35 PVC pipe. The new sewer main will connect to
an existing City of Mebane sewer line that runs parallel to 1-85/40 on the project site. This
application is only for the Phase I Hotel shown on the included plans.
This project does require coverage under a 404 (SAW-2018-01858) and 401 (WQC005039)
permits both of which have been approved.
