The ASSOCIATION desires, to construct and/or operate a Disposal System to provide sanitary sewage disposal to serve the Development on said lands. 3. The ASSOCIATION has applied to the COMMISSION for the issuance of a permit pursuant to G.S. 143- 215.1 to construct, maintain, and/or operate the Disposal System. 4. The Development was created subject to unit ownership in the dwellings units, other improvements and 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: 1. The ASSOCIATION shall construct the Disposal System and/or make any additions or modifications to the Disposal System in accordance with the permit and plans and specifications hereafter issued and approved by the COMMISSION, and shall thereafter properly operate and maintain such systems and facilities in accordance with applicable permit provisions and law. 2. The ASSOCIATION shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System and appurtenances thereto are part of the common elements and shall thereafter be properly maintained and operated in conformity with law and the provisions of the pennit for construction, operation, repair, and maintenance of the system and facilities.
