Ms. Susan Wilson NCDEQ— Water Resources, Regional Water Quality Section 1628 Mail Service Center (Mail) Raleigh, NC 27699-1628 Brian R. Leonard, PE, PkS August 25, 2023 NC Dept of Environmental Quality Re: Four Oaks Business Park Sewer Extensions, in Town of Four Oaks AUG 2 5 2023 Gravity Sewer Plans/Specifications — "Fast -Track" Review alei h Re j ("Zero Flow" Town Sewer/Outfall Extension AND Modification of Existing Permit g onal Office Dear Ms. Wilson: Per our telephone conversation last week, I made you aware that the Town of Four Oaks will be extending gravity sewer with TWO (2) SEPARATE PROJECTS, within its existing Business Park in the Town's Planning Jurisdiction, in Johnston County. The first project is a 2,280 LF gravity extension of an outfall line in the Business Park (by our firm: BRL Engineering & Surveying). The second project is a 2,531 LF gravity sewer extension associated with a new access road in the Business Park (by another firm: Wetherill Engineering). Our firms have been coordinating throughout our design process since our sewer lines cross at a common manhole. Also, both projects will extend gravity lines within the Business Park to make sewer available for "future/unknown" uses, meaning there is "zero flow" associated with both the projects. After speaking with you on the phone, we determined the best approach would be to submit both these projects together as a "Modification" to the existing Business Park Permit #WQ0034959. This modification request is only to add new linear footages of 8-inch sewer to the existing permit, with no change to flow or other permit parameters; therefore, no FTSE forms are necessary for flow acceptance. There is still sufficient capacity available for additional uses in the Business Park, in the initial permitted flow of 12,219 GPD (with only a small portion of this being utilized for a single, existing tenant in the business park). Again, we all agreed this would be the smoothest process to a permit; although you acknowledged you weren't sure if each of our projects would be issued its own modification; OR if a single modification would be issued for both projects. More specifically regarding this Modification Request of the EXISTING Permit #WQ0034959 for a previously - permitted Gravity Sewer, Pump Station & Forcemain in the Four Oaks Business Park, and in accordance with Item G of the General Section of the Fast -Track Application, all prior permitted items (including flow) remain unchanged EXCEPT for the LENGTH of gravity sewer which both of these projects will add to the existing permit. The additional lengths of gravity sewer in this modification request are: • Four Oaks Business Park Sewer Extension (BRL Engineering & Surveying): + 2,280 LF of 8-in PVC • Four Oaks Industrial Park Access Road (Wethrill Engineering): + 2,531 LF of 8-in PVC • Total Modification —Additional Sewer Line: + 4,811 LF c f 8-in PVC I have been assigned the role to submit this request on behalf of both the aforementioned firms and projects. Enclosed herewith are the following documents for your review: 1) FOR EACH PROJECT. Fast Track Sewer System Extension Application, Form FTA 06-21— 1 original + 1 copy signed by Engineer, and signed by Applicant (Town of Four Oaks). 2) FOR EACH PROJECT.

The following applies: ; and/or 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. Signing Official Signature 611) 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.

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. .fSwSp2 F7j.pw QIAGQAM North Carolina Beverly Eaves Perdue Governor September 2, 2010 Linwood Parker, Mayor Town of Four Oaks 304 North Main Street Four Oaks, NC 27524 A&4 HCDETV�t Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Coleen H.

Just a few questions likely for both of you. On Part IX.S. you both indicated that a 404 or 401 is required. Please indicate the project/permit number if so (or indicate if an application has been submitted). You also indicated that Neuse buffer requirements would be met — just want to verify that. Maybe you and Brian can work together on this piece? I'd like a sewer flow diagram for this. It can be fairly basic (but should be distinguished from Brian's portion). You did provide a good vicinity map, but we'd also like to have a sewer flow diagram (preferably overlayed on an expanded topo) to indicate how this piece of gravity sewer ties into the existing gravity sewer and where it is in relation to the currently permitted gravity sewer, PS, and force main (these should be indicated on the map as well). This basic map is helpful for our office so that someone can pick up this application and permit and understand quickly what is going where. DWR understands that the original permit allowed 12,219 gpd (this was based on domestic type wastewater for office space and warehouse bays). I think it would be prudent to update the flow tracking sheet (FTSE 10-18) for Four Oaks and JCPU. So even though the project flow is 0 gpd, this would be a good exercise to know the actual and obligatory flow to the existing pump stations and whatever is in between the force main and the treatment plant for JCPU. This also indicates to Four Oaks and JCPU what may be available if the flow for this permit should need to be modified and increased at some future date. [I realize Brian and I spoke about this — and I apologize for not thinking this initially. DWR does require a flow tracking on 0 gpd projects occasionally] 4. If Four Oaks does get a significant Industrial user at this site, they'll need to contact Johnston County to determine if any pretreatment is required (and we'll put a special condition to that effect in the permit). Sorry for the delay in getting back with you both. This one has been a bit unusual.

Do not click links or open attachments unless verified. Report suspicious emails with the Report Message button located on your Outlook menu bar on the Home tab. Susan, Regarding comment #1 for our project, we have submitted for 404/401 permitting and that is currently in review. The USACE ID number is SAW-2023-01888 and the DWR ID number is 20231314. We are permitting stream, wetland, and buffer impacts for the roadway stream crossing on our project. The intent of our design is indeed to meet the Neuse buffer requirements. We also acknowledge comment #4 and understand that will be a stipulation of the permit. One other thing that I would like to point out in regard to our project (Four Oaks Industrial Park Access Road) is that it will be using ARPA funds for utility construction. There are two ARPA projects listed below that will contribute funds for Sewer and Water construction respectively: SRP-W-ARP-0094 (for sewer) SRP-D-ARP-0095 (for water) I've been told by the ARPA project managers with the Division of Water Infrastructure that this should not affect how the permit is processed as far as being a modification to an existing permit vs a new permit. However, I do want to make you aware of this aspect of the project in case it does in some way affect how the permit is issued. Please let me know if you have additional questions, comments, or need any further information. Thanks, Jordan J.

The delay has been in getting the FTSE forms filled out and signed by both the Town and the County. ATTACHED is the Flow Diagram as you requested in Comment #2. ALSO ATTACHED per Comment #3 are the Flow Tracking FTSE forms from both the Town and the County, and for BOTH PROJECTS. Again, this is for zero flow, but still completed and signed as requested. Regarding Comment #1 for 404/401 permitting, our consultant is supposed to be submitting our PCN as soon as possible. We now have to "notify' the agencies before we even submit; so we're waiting on this acknowledgement of notification, and then we can formally submit. We can provide submittal documentation or approvals later, as soon as we receive it. Comment #4 is duly noted. I hope this provides everything you need and requested. Let me know if you need anything else! Brian R.

Just a few questions likely for both of you. On Part IX.S. you both indicated that a 404 or 401 is required. Please indicate the project/permit number if so (or indicate if an application has been submitted). You also indicated that Neuse buffer requirements would be met — just want to verify that. Maybe you and Brian can work together on this piece? I'd like a sewer flow diagram for this. It can be fairly basic (but should be distinguished from Brian's portion). You did provide a good vicinity map, but we'd also like to have a sewer flow diagram (preferably overlayed on an expanded topo) to indicate how this piece of gravity sewer ties into the existing gravity sewer and where it is in relation to the currently permitted gravity sewer, PS, and force main (these should be indicated on the map as well). This basic map is helpful for our office so that someone can pick up this application and permit and understand quickly what is going where. DWR understands that the original permit allowed 12,219 gpd (this was based on domestic type wastewater for office space and warehouse bays). I think it would be prudent to update the flow tracking sheet (FTSE 10-18) for Four Oaks and JCPU. So even though the project flow is 0 gpd, this would be a good exercise to know the actual and obligatory flow to the existing pump stations and whatever is in between the force main and the treatment plant for JCPU. This also indicates to Four Oaks and JCPU what may be available if the flow for this permit should need to be modified and increased at some future date.
