an application with the North Darolina Utilities C ommission (Commission) for authority to

wastewater utility service in its service areas in Onslow County to the Onslow Water and
Sewer Authority (0NWASA). ONWASA is exempt from Com miss! on regulation pursuant
to N.O. Geri. Stat. § 6 -3( )(d). Pluris curren#fy provides wastewater utility service to
approximately 7,000 customers in its service areas. ONWA A provides water utility
service to this service area. Pursuant to the terms of the transfer, Applicant will transfer
a1I cfApplicant's customers to ONWASA.
On July 24, 2023, the Commission issued its Order Requiring Customer Notice,

postage or hand delivered to all affected customers. Two customer protests have been
received by the Public Staff — North Carolina Utilities Commission (Public Staff}. One

continue after the transfer to 0NWASA by Applicant.

The Applicant and the Public Staff filed a fetter on August 21, 2028, providing the
terms of an agreement they have reached regarding allocation of shared costs in an effort
to avoid significant adverse impacts on rates charged to customers of Pluris Hampstead,
LLC, in the future as a result of the transfer to ON A A,
This matter was presented at the Commission's Regular Staff Conference on
August 28, 2023. The Public Staff stated that it had reviewed the application and
recommends that the Commission approve the transfer of the wastewater utility system

Based upon the verified application, the recommendation of the Public -Staff, and
the records of the Commission, the Commission makes the following:

customers would not be required to Ray a connection fee to ON WASA.
4_ Under ONWA A's current rates, the average monthly metered non-
