Dear Mr. Gallarda:
In accordance with your request and documentation received September 21, 2009, we are forwarding
herewith Permit No. WQ0034483, dated ISSUE DATE (Month Day, Year), to the Pluris, LLC for the
construction and operation upon certification 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This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the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.
This permit describes a portion of the sewer system previously issued to North Topsail Utilities Incorporated
under a single, consolidated permit (WQ0017535) that will be voided upon issuance of the three new
permits that will ultimately be created. System changes are in the process of being designed for
implementation to increase the efficiency of the overall system that modeling has previously shown as
becoming degraded. In addition, the residential flow reduction rate of 80 gpd/bedroom with a
minimum of 160 gpd that was granted on November 6, 2009 for systems on the mainland is being
applied where possible.
Please pay particular attention to Conditions 17 regarding systems approved as "Construction Only"
and the requirement to request and receive a permit modification prior to certification and placement
into operation.
Please note the following standard conditions that are contained in this permit.
Condition 3: Requires that the wastewater collection facilities be properly operated and
maintained in accordance with 15A NCAC 2T .0403 or any individual system-wide
collection system permit issued to the Permittee.
Condition 6: Requires that the system be properly certified upon completion of construction
and prior to being placed into operation.
Condition 7: Regarding the installation of gravity sewer at greater than ten percent below the
minimum required slope per the Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria
shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified until corrected.

Condition 12: Regarding Division notification should the system fail to operate including the loss
of wastewater from the collection system. In addition, note Permit Condition 13

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 the North
Carolina-licensed Professional Engineer named in the application.
It shall be the Pluris, LLC's responsibility to ensure that the as-constructed project 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.
A stormwater management plan shall be submitted to and approved by the Wilmington Regional
Office in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .1000.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this permit. This
request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter 150B of North Carolina General
Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC
27699-6714. Unless such demands are made, this permit shall be final and binding.

facilities, the completed Engineering Certification form attached to this permit shall be submitted
with the required supporting documents (as-built or recording drawings and pump station designs, if
applicable) to the address provided on the form. A complete certification is one where the form is
fully executed and the supporting documents are provided as applicable. Any wastewater flow
made tributary to the wastewater collection system extension prior to completion of this Engineer's
Certification shall be considered a violation of the permit and shall subject the Permittee to
appropriate enforcement actions.
6

of Incorporation, Declarations, and Bylaws that have been appropriately filed with the applicable
County's Register of Deeds office shall be submitted with the certification.
A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are
provided as applicable. Supporting documentation shall include the following:
a. One copy of the project construction record drawings (plan & profile views of sewer lines &
force mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Record drawings are defined as
the design drawings that are marked up or annotated with after construction information and
show required buffers, separation distances, material changes, etc.
b. One copy of the supporting pump station design calculations (selected pumps, system curve,
operating point, buoyancy calculations, available storage if portable generator(s) or storage
greater than longest past three year outage reliability option selected) for any pump stations
permitted as part of this project.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations, or
the Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the
certification in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting in
non-compliance with this permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased flow,
pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and increases in the number/type
of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested modifications or variances
to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and each on its own merit.
Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be requested and approved
during the permitting process prior to construction. After-construction requests are discouraged by
the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or repair prior to certification &
activation.
7. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the
Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified
until corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined, a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting
documentation. This shall be done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests
will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to
completing and submitting the construction certification.
8. A copy of the construction record drawings and pump station designs, if applicable, shall be
maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of the wastewater collection facilities.
9. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the
Division's Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast-Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted
June 1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an
enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes §143-
215.6A through §143-215.6C.
10. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including
those as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement
facilities.
11. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (local, state
and federal) which have jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable river buffer rules in 15A
NCAC 2B .0200, erosion and sedimentation control requirements in 15A NCAC Ch. 4 and under the
Division's General Permit NCG010000, and any requirements pertaining to wetlands under 15A
NCAC 2B .0200 and 15A NCAC 2H .0500.
7

12. NON-COMPLIANCE NOTIFICATION:
The Permittee shall verbally report to a Division of Water Quality staff member at the Wilmington
Regional Office, telephone number [phone], as soon as possible, but in no case more than
24 hours or on the next working day, following the occurrence or first knowledge of the occurrence
of either of the following:
a. Any failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that renders the system incapable of
adequate wastewater transport, such as mechanical or electrical failures of pumps, line
blockage or breakage, etc.; or
b. Any failure of a pumping station or sewer line resulting in a by-pass of any wastewater directly
to receiving waters from the station or sewer line.
Voice mail messages or faxed information is permissible, but shall NOT be considered as the initial
verbal report. Overflows and spills occurring outside normal business hours may also be reported to
the Division of Emergency Management at telephone number [phone] or [phone].
Persons reporting any of the above occurrences shall file a spill report by completing Part I of Form
CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved form), within five days following first knowledge of
the occurrence. This report shall outline the actions taken or proposed to ensure that the problem
does not recur. Part II of Form CS-SSO (or the most current Division approved form) can also be
completed to show that the SSO was beyond control.
13. Each pump station including simplex stations shall be clearly and conspicuously posted with the
telephone number and name of the owner/operator of the sewer system and instructions to call
the number in the event of alarm activation.
14. The Permittee shall maintain on hand for immediate installation a supply of spare, fully operational
pump units of each simplex type used in the sewer system. The number of pumps on hand shall not
be less than two (2) percent of the number of installed units or one unit, whichever is greater.
15. A minimum of 90 gallons of storage capacity above the pump-on activation level to meet the
greater of the Permittee response time for service or the longest non-catastrophic power outage of
the previous three years for any simplex pump station serving a single family residence. This is based
on a three-bedroom residence. The Permittee is advised that since many of these residences
actually serve as 4 and 5 bedroom residences during the resort season, any overflows due to
inadequate storage will be subject to enforcement action.
16. The Permittee shall provide for the pump station and force main the following items:
a. Pump on/off elevations located so that 2-8 pumping cycles may be achieved per hour in
the pump station,
b. An air relief valve located at all high points along the force main,
c. A screened vent for the wetwell,
d. Fillets located in the wetwell at the intersection of the flooring and sidewalls,
e. Three feet of cover (minimum) over the force main or the use of ferrous material where
three feet cannot be maintained,
f. Sufficient devices which will protect the pump station from vandals, and
g. Flood protection if the pump station is located below the 100-year flood elevation.
17. The projects in this permit indicated to be for construction only of the wastewater collection facilities
must have flow allocation provided prior to activation. Flow allocation requires a permit
modification application to be submitted (with the appropriate fee), a modified permit be issued,
and the Engineer's Certification is received and approved by the Division.
