states that "The prospective permittee shall not begin the activity: (1) Until notified in writing ...., or
(2) If 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer's receipt of the complete PCN and the
prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division engineer."
Accordingly, on 03/29/2023, the applicant, Orange County, was authorized to place fill or dredged
material into waters, associated with the construction of the Hillsborough Area EDD Phase 1 Water
and Sewer Extension project, under nationwide permit number 58, as proposed in the permit
application dated 09/21/2018. 1 have attached a copy of the applicable permit conditions.The
expiration date for the permit verification is March 14, 2026.
Please note that your work is authorized by the above referenced permit provided it is accomplished
in strict accordance with the permit conditions and your submitted plans (see attached). Any
violation of the conditions or deviation from your submitted plans may subject the permittee to a
stop work order, a restoration order and/or appropriate legal action.
It is your responsibility to contact the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) Raleigh
Regional Office to determine the 401 requirements for this project. Please note that, if an Individual
401 WQC is required from NCDWR, the conditions of the Individual 401 WQC, once issued, are also
conditions of the NWP referenced above. You may not conduct the activity authorized by the above
referenced NWP without a valid 401 Water Quality Certification.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this statutory verification, or any of the
conditions of the permit.

RE: Research Triangle Logistics Park Sanitary Sewer Permit
Project Narrative - Responses to Email dated 9/15/23
Dear Elaine,
This letter is in response to email dated 9/15/23 regarding the FTSE application. The project entails providing an
offsite sanitary sewer extension for a future industrial park. The flows for the industrial park will be allocated when
the onsite sewers are permitted. The onsite configuration will consist of multiple buildings that will require a state
extension permit since it is not just a single building lateral connection.
To answer your question regarding anticipated future flow, the maximum allocation is up to 108,000 gallons per
day. The Town of Hillsborough receives the flow downstream. The buffer authorization and 401 permit are
presently being processed by the state. The 404 permit number is SAW-2018-01629 NWP expiring March 14, 2026.
It is anticipated that the permit for the flow allocation will be requested in the next few months, with the actual
construction completion of the first phase of the industrial park around Summer 2024.
Please advise if you have any questions. I can be reached at don.severksummitde.com or 919 810-7950.
Sincerely,
Dom Sever

This is a linear project to install sewer to an industrial park in the Town of Hillsborough. The project was
approved on August 21, 2018 , WQ0050240, but wasn't constructed due to economic reasons. The name of the
project was changed to Research Triangle Logistics Park Water and Sewer Extensions. The original permit was in
the Town of Hillsborough name. The Town asked the permit be updated to the developers name,but the Town
will maintain the lines after completion.

Hi Elaine,
I do not see anything that necessarily precludes this from being issued as a fast track permit. My
reasoning comes from the guidance document attached. Under Construction-only:

"Used for permits where they do not have any upstream flow to be permitted imminently (imminent
means within 3-6 months)..."
and
"Central office must ALWAYS be involved."
I think there are several areas where the document could have stated that fast track is not
appropriate, but does not, so I lean toward working with them if they opt to go that route.
Please let me know if there's something I'm not considering here, otherwise I'm happy to help as
much as I can as you proceed.

Hi All,
I am looking for some further guidance on whether a construction only fast track permit should be
issued and am hoping that one of you can help with that. The proposed project is for Research
Triangle Logistics Park (RTLP) in Hillsborough. They are requesting a zero-flow fast track permit for
the construction of GS only,499 LF of 8" GS and 2,205 LF of 12" GS, for future use of an industrial
park that is to be constructed, timeline TBD. I have attached their FTA, narrative, and other related
documents for you to review. Please let me know if this project is appropriate for fast track permit
issuance or if you would like me to request additional information.
Thank you,

Subject: Research Triangle Logistics Park (RTLP) Water and Sewer Extensions—Additional Information
Request
Hello Kathy and Don,
After reviewing the Fast Track Sewer System Extension Application for Research Triangle Logistics
Park (RTLP) Water and Sewer Extensions, additional information is required in order to further
process the application. Please provide the following information by October 15. 2023, and note
that the requested information must be submitted within 30 days of this request, or the applicant
will be required to submit a new application and application fee in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T
.0107.
1. According to Section V1.7.,the application is requesting zero flow. DWR is not inclined to
permit "dry lines", zero flow. Could you give a timeline of when the industrial park will be
built?Will the Town of Hillsborough take ownership of the sewer line once the project is
completed?And can you give an approximate time of the permit submittal for it? RESPONSE:
The industrial park will begin construction of the park in the upcoming months. It is
anticipated that a line inside the industrial park will be designed and permitted within the
next four months. The lines that are being built with this application are going to be
maintained by the Town of Hillsborough upon town board acceptance after successful
construction. Marie Strandwitz with the Town of Hillsborough has offered the following:
This is an entirely offsite extension to plan for a vacant parcel on the outskirts of the town's
service area with no other existing development nearby that will not have any flow for several
years. When the vacant parcel develops, the extension permit for that sewer extension would
have the capacity allocated and a FTSE showing the WWTP and the collection system have
capacity will be provided. We request a zero-flow permit. The town does not want to have a
double capacity allocation when the sewer extension for the parcel that will generate the flow
is submitted and we feel requiring an allocation here and with the onsite parcel extensions
will be very problematic for the division and the town to track and sort out.The town intends
to submit a Form PNOCF to transfer the extension into their name once their board accepts
the properly constructed and dedicated system.The town would like to understand this new
division hesitation with zero flow permits. In this case again, there are no sewer laterals
designed on this offsite outfall extension. There are zero developed parcels between the
existing sewer connection point and the proposed development parcel.
2. Although there is currently zero flow, a Flow Tracking for Sewer Extensions (FTSE) Form may
be required. The WWTF specified in Section IV of the application needs to verify that it has
adequate capacity to accept the wastewater when the industrial park is complete and in
operation and will not violate G.S. 143-215.67(a). Please refer to Section E of the Application
Instructions for further information. RESPONSE: The future industrial park sewer extension
permit will include the FTSE when flow is actually allocated to show the treatment plant and
downstream pumping stations have adequate capacity for the anticipated flow.This
application is not for the industrial park and capacity is not allocated in this application.

3. Submit a cover letter/narrative. The cover letter/narrative is to include specific information
related to the project including system type, eventual flow allocation required, permit
numbers associated with required sewer permits (downstream/upstream), buffer
authorization certificate number, 401/404 permit number/permitting status letter, and any
other relevant information that would assist in issuing the permit. Please refer to Section B of
the Application Instructions for further information.
a. Please include the timeline of the project and projected ownership in the narrative.
RESPONSE: see narrative responses.
4. According to the Town of Hillsborough,Terra Equity is the developer for the RTLP Water and
Sewer Extension project, however Section V1.2. was marked "No" and no Developer's
Operational Agreement (DEV) form was submitted. Please submit the required Developer's
Operational Agreement (DEV) form. RESPONSE: see attached form for rough draft. We don't
think this is needed at this time.
5. The fast track project for the Town of Hillsborough was previously permitted for 3,823 LF (499
LF of 8" PVC, 1,1876 LF of 12" DI, and 1,448 LF of 12" PVC), but the current fast track
application is requesting a total gravity sewer length is 2,704 LF. Please confirm the gravity
sewer design criteria. RESPONSE: The town permit from several years ago was rescinded
because of no activity and a change (reduction) in design, design engineer, and project owner.
The current application is the current application and should be the only project application
and plans considered for this project at this time.
5. The topographical map and aerial map provided are not sufficient. According to Section F of
the Application Instructions, an 8.5-inch x 11-inch color copy of a USGS Topographic Map and
an aerial map should be included with the application. The maps need to clearly identify the
entire project area (not point), including the closest surface waters, general location of the
gravity sewer, pumpstations, and force mains, and the downstream connection points for the
receiving sewer. Please provide the required maps according to the application
requirements. RESPONSE: see revised USGS map .
6. Please provide the Permit Number/Permitting Status letter for the 404/401 authorization
specified in Section IX.S. of the Fast Track Application. RESPONSE: the 404 permit is dated
3/29/23 with an expiration date of March 14, 2026, see attached for copy. The 401 permit is
presently being reprocessed.
15A NCAC 02T.0107 Staff Review and Permit Preparation states:
• "(2) (e) If an application is accepted and later found to be incomplete, the applicant shall be
advised how the application or accompanying supporting information may be modified to
make it complete. The staff shall advise the applicant:
(2) if all required information is not submitted within 30 days, the project will be
returned as incomplete. Any resubmittal of a returned application shall be accompanied
with a new application fee."
Please contact me with any questions that you may have regarding this request.

Don,
When reviewing the map provided, it looks as those you are just pointing out where the proposed
sewer is located and not where it ties into the existing downstream sewer system. Please indicate
that on the map. Regarding the DEV form, there is no flow requirement associated with this
requirement. Per 15A NCAC 02T.0115(b), If the applicant is a developer, an Operational Agreement
shall be submitted with the permit application. Please provide the signed DEV form.

Elaine,
We have modified the USGS exhibit to show the sewer connection. Is this sufficient for your
comment?
Regarding the DEV, the developer is questioning whether this is needed since there is no flow for the

line. We can have them plug the line at the connecting manhole so that no flow will get into the
existing sewer system if needed.

OK Marie—just want to let you know we've gotten this. I'll make sure I coordinate with Jason. I
think he had sent us an email about the confusion with that modification,so this may clear
things up a bit.
I don't see any reason for an FTSE if it's zero flow.

Hello Susan, Elaine, and Jason,
I'm sorry there has been a mix up going on with this project's sewer permitting.
While I am asking to rescind WQ0040240,the developer is trying to modify it at
the same time and that is not appropriate. I asked the developer to submit a
brand-new permit application for this project as I edited in the attached, and I've
asked to rescind WQ0040240 for reasons explained in the attached E-mail (for
Jason's info). I'm working with Susan and Elaine to rescind the permit and I guess
Jason is working with the developer on a supposed modification at the same time.
I don't know what they submitted for an application!Jason,this is an entire offsite
extension that will not have any connections for several years. It only goes to a
vacant parcel on the outskirts of our service area with no other existing

development nearby.When the developer builds on that parcel,the extension
permit for that sewer would have the capacity allocated. If the division is requiring
capacity allocations for all extensions, then utilities are going to have double
allocations and that is going to be very messy and incorrect. We request a zero-
flow permit.There is nothing else developed in this area.The town intends to
submit a Form PNOCF to transfer the lines into our name once our board accepts
the system.This is a long-term spec project, and the town does not want the
regulatory responsibility to oversee idle sewer mains for the next several years as
the developer builds out their project per our agreement with them and if the
developer does not gain acceptance of the system in a timely manner.
I have advised the developer they were to submit for a new permit application. I
will let them come back to Jason and advise to withdraw the modification as I
formalize my E-mail request for rescission of the current permit per Susan's
request. For a zero flow application,would form FTSE be required?
Thanks! Sorry about that.

Don,
You were not supposed to modify that permit at all per our prior
discussions. I've already requested the division rescind that permit.You
were supposed to submit for a brand new permit. I haven't even provided
you a FTSE for your permit. It would be zero flow as it is an offsite
extension. I'm going to speak with Jason about this. I wasn't aware he was
helping still since he moved to DWI.

Marie,
<!--[if!supportLists]-->1. <!--[endif]-->For the FTSE,the state had some
comments on the FTSE that we needed to address.See the following
below. The main question that I have for you is this:
The original permit included zero flow,and the new app states that this
is an extension to an industrial park. While I realize that the original
permit included zero flow,that was a bit of an oversight in DWR's
review,and we've since been instructed to only issue"no flow" permits
in unique situations. Section .0114 of the 2T Rules states that 880
gal/acre should be used in situations like this:

The question is how many acres or GPD should we ask for on this project.
Thanks Don

Hi Don,
I haven't been able to review this application yet, but I just did a cursory
review. It appears that you're requesting a modification to an existing permit
(WQ0040240)to change the name from the Town to an LLC?

If that's the case,Section II of the application should have been checked
"Existing",and the permit number should have been provided in that Section of
the app.
<image017.jpg>
I also have the following questions:
<!--[if!supportLists]-->1. <!--[endif]-->The narrative states that the application
is requesting to change the name from the Town to the LLC, but then
states that the Town will maintain the line after completion. Is the
Town wanting the permit to stay in the LLCs name(and therefore
they're technically the owners of the line), but the Town will maintain
the LLC's line? If the Town plans to own the line,then they'd have to
request to change it back in their name later.
<!--[if!supportLists]-->2. <!--[endif]-->The original permit(WQ0040240)
included 3,324 LF of 12"gravity. However,the new application only
specifies 2,205 LF of 12"gravity. Was this changed since the original
permit was issued?
<!--[if!supportLists]-->3. <!--[endif]-->The original permit included zero flow,
and the new app states that this is an extension to an industrial park.
While I realize that the original permit included zero flow,that was a bit
of an oversight in DWR's review,and we've since been instructed to
only issue"no flow" permits in unique situations. Section .0114 of the
2T Rules states that 880 gal/acre should be used in situations like this:

Please provide written responses via email to the above questions.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Don,
Sorry for the delay in this response, I was on vacation for a few days and I am
playing catch up on emails.
It appears that this FTSE application is currently under review by Jason
Robinson. I have cc'd him here so that he is looped in on your request below.

Zach,
I was hoping that you might be able to assist me. I was trying to find out the
status of a FTSE application we submitted on 6/30/23. Attached was the Letter
of transmittal that we dropped off for the project in the Town of Hillsborough
Orange County). This project was previously approved under the Town of
Hillsborough. The Town wanted us to revise the permit to be under the
property owners name. Other than that there was no other changes to the
plans.
Can you help us out?
Thanks Don
