This 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 am the responsible party.

The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately MGD per year; and that c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely is in design or under construction with planned completion in ; and/or d. The following applies: Please see the attached Planning Assessment dated October 24, 2023. No flow will be accepted by the County until improvements are complete. The flow tracking presented assumes all projects are complete. 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. C- a Lo Signing Official Signature Date Page 3 of 6 FTSE 10-18 Planning Assessment — Town of Four Oaks flow to Johnston County — October 24, 2023 Currently the Johnston County Four Oaks WWPS pumps to the Town of Benson. Wastewater is received by the Town under an inter-local agreement between the Town of Benson and Johnston County. Benson can no longer receive the full amount of wastewater allocated in the current agreement. Currently the County sends all of the wastewater received at the Four Oaks WWPS to the Town of Benson. Benson's WWTP discharges to the impaired Hannah Creek. Because of the impairment, the Town has not been able to increase the plant's NPDES permit to the full design capacity of the facility. A new agreement is being developed with the Town of Benson to set a sustainable amount of flow that can be received by the Town (Draft Agreement includes 200,000 gpd). Any additional flow will be sent to the Central Johnston County Regional WWTF (CJCRWWTF). • Four Oaks has a current allocation with the County of 384,455 gpd. • The average daily flow from the Town of Four Oaks over the past two years is 242,088 gpd. They were dry years. • The Town has 84,641 gpd of flow permitted, but not yet tributary to the system. The County has devised a plan to handle the current and future flow from the Town of Four Oaks. The plan includes upgrading the Four Oaks WWPS to send flow to the Town of Benson and the CJCRWWTF simultaneously. Along the path to the CJCRWWTF, the Holt Lake WWPS and the downstream FM be upgraded. The Neuse River WWPS will also need to be replaced. The upgrades to the Four Oaks will allow the County to send 360 GPM to the Town of Benson and 520 GPM to the CJCRWWTF simultaneously and better utilize the equalization on site. A permit for this project is under review by DEQ. The project is planned to start construction in early 2024 and be completed in 2025. The upgrade to the Holt Lake WWPS will modify the existing wetwell to accommodate 700 gpm pumps and a new generator on-site. In addition, 4,500 If of 8" FM along an existing easement to the gravity system that drains to the Neuse River WWPS. This project is currently under construction and will be completed in 2024. Until the upgrades are complete the station is limited to 300 gpm or a permitted capacity of 172,800 gpd. The existing Neuse River WWPS is precariously located close to the bridge over the Neuse River on US 301. The station is almost completly surrounded by water during flood events, and the station is in need of major repairs. In addition, a NC DOT bridge replacement project will make safe access to the site limited. A replacement station with a capacity of 800 gpm is planned outside of the floodplain. This project is in the final stages of design and will be completed in 2025/2026. Until the new station is complete, the Neuse River WWPS is limited to 347 gpm or 200,000 gpd. The flow tracking presented shows the future second path to the CJCRWWTF for flow from the Four Oaks WWPS. The excess existing flow (42,088gpd) and all of the permitted but not yet tributary flow currently allocated are included in the numbers presented. No new flow from the Four Oaks Industrial Park will be accepted until the projects are complete.

Wellons Street in the Town of Four Oaks, North Carolina.The site is 9.62 acres and is bounded by US Highway 301 on the north side. The property coordinates are 35'26' 56.8" N; 78°24'S8.5"W.The existing site is a vacant wooded lot with several abandoned homes and out structures that are to be demolished and removed. Three apartment buildings, a club house, and associated parking are proposed to be constructed with the development of this site. Twelve (12) 1-bedroom,twenty-four(24)2-bedroom and twenty-four(24) 3-bedroom units will be provided for a total of 60 residential units. Utilities will be served by the Town of Four Oaks. An existing 8"sanitary sewer line runs parallel to US Highway 301. A proposed 8" sanitary sewer line from the project site will connect to the existing line. A lift station will not be required as there is sufficient depth and slope. Onsite sanitary sewer lines are min. 6" diameter to comply with DWR design criteria, There are no existing sanitary sewer permits for this site. A new permit is being requested. �A�q ROY COOPER cavernor ELIZABETH S.BISER Serrrraty ar m DOUGLAS R.ANSEL NORTH CAROLINA lnrerim Oftecra Environmental Quality July 25, 2023 LETTER OF APPROVAL Mayes Farm, LP ATTN: Frankie W Pendergraph 3924 Browning Place, Suite 1 Raleigh, NC 27609-6509 RE: Project Name: Mayes Farm Apartments Acres Approved: 4.19 Project ID: JOHNS-2023-037 County: Johnston City: Four Oaks Address: HWY 301 River Basin: Neuse Stream Classification: Other Submitted By: Sambatek PC NC; ATTN: Brian Soltz Date Received by LQS: July 24, 2023 Plan Type: New/Residential/Express Dear Mr. Pendergraph: This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan.
