Adjusted Daily Sewage Flow Design Rate
Chatham County
Dear Mr. Fitch:
On January 19, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (Division) received a request from your
consulting engineer, Diehl & Phillips, for an adjustment to the daily sewage flow design rates.
This adjustment would apply to all permitted but not yet tributary connections and all future
connections tributary to this facility in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0114(f). A flow
adjustment to 70 gallons per day per bedroom was requested. The information provided was
reviewed by the Division's Raleigh Regional Office, and additional information was provided by
your engineer to the Raleigh Regional Office dated February 23, 2007 and March 28, 2007.
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0114(f)(2), the Raleigh Regional Office has evaluated all
the submitted data and considered other factors including weather conditions during the data
period of November 2005 through October 2006, monitoring data for this facility and an
analysis of flow reduction data for other facilities comparable to Fearrington. Based on the
data submitted, the Division hereby approves the use by Fearrington Utilities for the collection
system described in Permit No. WQCS00238, and the treatment plant described in Permit No.
NC0043559, an adjusted daily sewage design flow rate of 250 gallons per day per 1 to 3
bedroom single family dwelling, with an additional 70 gallons per day per each bedroom
over 3 bedrooms, effective immediately.
In granting this flow reduction, please be advised that the Division will not reissue any
outstanding permits made prior to this flow reduction request. if reissued permits are desired,
a permit modification request with the appropriate fee must be submitted for each permit to be
so modified. Flow allocation and tracking files maintained by the Raleigh Regional Office will
be updated for any flow being shown as not yet tributary to the WWTP.
Future sewer extension applications should be made using the reduced flow amounts stated
above. All other aspects of the permitting process remain unchanged, and all applications

must be in compliance with the statutes, rules and regulations, and minimum design criteria as
certified by the owner and engineer. Without regard to this or any other flow reduction either
requested or granted, at no time shall the flow to this wastewater treatment facility
exceed the limits defined in the NPDES permit for this facility, nor exceed the capacity
of the sewers downstream of any new sewer extension or service connection.
If you have any questions regarding this adjustment to the daily sewage flow design rates, or
