I Kent Jackson certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
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. 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.

Section I
a. WWTP Facili Name: Enter the name of the WWTP that will receive the wastewater flow.
b. WWTP Facility Permit M Enter the NPDES or Non-Discharge number for the WWTP receiving the
wastewater flow.
c. WWTP facility's ermined flow, MGD: From WWTP owner's NPDES or Non-Discharge permit.
d. Estimated obligated flow not yet tributary to the WWTP, Mfp: This includes flows allocated to
other construction projects not yet contributing flow to the collection system. Flows allocated through
interlocal agreements or other contracts not yet contributing flow to the collection system are also
included. For POTWs that implement a pretreatment program, include flows allocated to industrial
users who may not be using all of their flow allocation. Please contact your Pretreatment Coordinator
for information on industrial flow tributary to your WWTP.
As of January 15, 2008 the POTW should have reviewed flow allocations made over the last two
years and reconciled their flow records,to the best of their ability, so it is known how much flow has
been obligated and is not yet been made tributary to the WWTP,in accordance with local policies and
procedures employed by the reporting entity.
e. WWTP facility's actual avg. flow,MGD: Previous 12 month average.
f. Total flow for this specific request,MGD: Enter the requested flow volume.
g. Total actual and obligated flows to the facility,MGD Equals [d+e+ fJ
h. Percent of permitted flow used: Equals [(g?c)*100]
For example:
On January 15 a POTW with a permitted flow of 6.0 MGD,reported to the Regional Office that there
is 0.5 MGD of flow that is obligated but not yet tributary. The annual average flow for 2007 is 2.7
MGD. There is a proposed flow expansion of 0.015 MGD.
The first Form FTSE submitted after January 15,2008 may have numbers like this:
c. - 6.0 MGD
d. — 0.5 MGD
e. — 2.7 MGD
f. — 0.015 MGD
g. — 3.215 MGD
h. = 53.6"o
The next Form FTSE may be updated like this with a proposed flow expansion of 0.102 MGD:
c. — 6.0 MGD
d. = 0.515 MGD
e. — 2.73 MGD
f. —0.102 MGD
g. — 3.349 MGD
h. = 55.8°-o
Each subsequent FTSE form will be updated in the same manner.

Section 1I
List the pump station name or number and approximate pump station firm capacity, approximate design
average daily flow (A) approximate current average daily flow (B), and the obligated, not yet tributary
flow through the pump station (C) for each pump station that will be impacted by the proposed sewer
extension project. Calculate the total current flow plus obligated flow (D=B+C) and the available
capacity (E—A-D). Include the proposed flow for this project with other obligated flows that have been
approved for the pump station but are not yet tributary(Q.
Finn capacity is the maximum pumped flow that can be achieved with the largest pump out of service as
per the Minimum Design Criteria.
Design Average Daily Flow is the firm capacity of the pump station divided by a peaking factor(pf) of
not less than 2.5.
If the available capacity(E) for any pump station is 0, then prepare a planning assessment for that pump
station if the system has future specific plans related to capacity that should be considered in the
permitting process.

Planning Assessment Addendum Instructions
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where available
capacity is-0.
A planning assessment for Kaw Creek PS (see example data above) may be performed to evaluate
whether there is significant likelihood that needed improvements or reductions in obligated flows will be
in place prior to activating the flows from the proposed sewer extension project.
If the system decides to accept the flow based on a planning assessment addendum, it is responsible to
manage the flow without capacity related sanitary overflows and must take all steps necessary to
complete the project or control the rate of flow to prevent sanitary sewer overflows.
The planning assessment may identify a funded project currently in design or construction, or a planned
project in the future not yet funded but in a formal plan adopted by the system. The system should
carefully weigh the certainty of successful timely project completion for any expansion, flow
management diversion or infiltration and inflow elimination projects that are the foundation of a planned
solution to capacity tracking and acceptance compliance.
For example:
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of obligated,not yet tributary flow accounts for 24°-o and 0.080
MGD of the committed flow in Pump Station Kaw Creek;and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated,not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately 0.01
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:
The master plan and ten year capital plan contain recommended scope and funding for a_capital project
entitled Kaw Creek Pump Station upgrade with funding planned in July 2014. This promect is planned to
add 0.100 MGD to the firm capacity of the pump station by October 2015. Inclusion of this proposed
capital proiect as a condition of this Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension Permit Application
elevates this Rroiect's priority for funding and construction to be implemented ahead of the activation of
obligated, not yet tributa flows in amounts that exceed the firm 12ump station capacities identified in
Section II above.
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.

Dear Mr Terry:
In accordance with your permit application received August 3, 2012, we are forwarding herewith Permit
No. W00036103 dated August 21, 2012, to the Town of Pittsboro for the construction and operation of
the subject wastewater collection system extension. This permit shall be effective from the date of
issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. This
cover letter shall be considered a part of this permit and is, therefore, incorporated therein by reference.
Please pay particular attention to:
a) Permit Condition 3 that requires the wastewater collection facilities be properly
operated and maintained in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0403 or any
individual system-wide collection system permit issued to the Permittee, and
b) Permit Condition 6 that requires Engineering Certification prior to operation of
this collection system extension.
Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that does not meet
15A NCAC 02T; the Division of Water Quality's (Division) Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria
adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; and the Division's Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast-
Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000, as applicable, unless
specifically mentioned herein. Division approval is based on acceptance of the certification provided by
a North Carolina-licensed Professional Engineer in the application. It shall be the Permittee's
responsibility to ensure that the as-constructed protect meets the appropriate design criteria and rules.
Failure to comply may result in penalties in accordance with North Carolina General Statute §143-
215.6A through §143-215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities,
and/or referral of the North Carolina-licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board.
