Minimum Design Criteria (Gravity Sewer & Pump Stations/Force Mains) and that plans, specifications and supporting documents
have been prepared in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T, 15A NCAC 02T.03001 Division policies, and good engineering Practices.
While no upfront engineering design documents are required for submittal, in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0305(b), design
documents must be prepared prior to submittal of a fast track permit application to the Division. This would include plans, design
calculations, and project specifications referenced in 15A NCAC 02T 0305 and the applicable minimum design criteria. These
documents shall be immediately available upon request by the Division.

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. '1-'his 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

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section 11 where Available
Capacity is < 0.
Pump Station (Name or Number): SLS-120
Given that:
• The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributar•, Daily Flow (C ) accounts for
57.29 % and 3.300 MGD of the Available CapacitN (E ) in Pump Station
SLS-120 ; and that
• The rate of activation of this obligated, not het tributary capacit\ is currently approximateb.
0.3 MGD per } ear; and that
• A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namek
TBD is 41 des icn or under construction with
alanned completion in TBD j ; and/or
• The following applies:
HRW is currently reconciling actual and not -%et -tributary flows to
accurately assess available capacity. The reconciliation is expected to be completed in
June 2023. Given the size of the pump station, the
percentage of not-yet-tributan, and the rate of activation, this will be the first step to
determine if potential CIP project is needed and timeline for anv capacity increase.
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to
allow this flow to be permitted, without a significant likelihood of over -allocating capacity in the
system infrastructure.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste
disposal system.
