This modification is to only permit Phase 3A and to not include Phase 3B as originally permitted. We will permit Phase 3B separately in the future. The flow allocation will now be 21,300 GPD for 71 single family lots for sale. The original permit allocated 46,720 GPD for 146 lots. Items included in this package consists of, check for $480, FTA 04-16, FTSE 01-16 and USGS Map. This project is called Cambridge Park Phase 3A, located on Jones Drive in Mebane, NC. This project is served by an onsite gravity sewer system (WQ0040482) flowing to a pump station (WQ0040510) then ultimately tying onto an existing City of Mebane sewer system.
