Clerk
The purpose of this letter is to acknowledge your November 4, 1999 letter concerning the above
referenced matter. Please note that the Town understands that the emergency overflow will serve
only as an interim solution to the greater VI problem. The Town has pursued the matter in order
to further protect surface waters in the short term.
Also, please be aware that the Town currently has an outstanding Clean Water Bond grant
application for the replacement of approximately 7,5001f of 8" terra cota sewer line. The Town
has cleaned and videotaped this line and found it to be a major source of 1/I which ultimately
impacts the Lyman Street Lift Station. The Town is also considering other financing options
should the grant application prove unsuccessful.
Your request that a letter be submitted stating the completion of the project according to plans
and specifications will be honored upon final inspection by the Town's consulting engineer. If
you have questions or if I can be of assistance please feel free to contact me.
Sinc ly,
J char owell r. 1

The Division received a letter of request for an Authorization to Construct on September 20, 1999 and final plans
and specifications for the subject project have been reviewed. The proposed project scope includes the installation of an
emergency overflow bypass for the referenced pump station. After reviewing the project scope the Division has
concluded that an Authorization to Construct for this project is unnecessary. Please be advised, the proposed project is
considered an interim solution to the excessive IR flows. It is expected that the Town will continue pursue the reason for
excessive I/I flows and take appropriate measures to correct the problem.
Though the requirement for an Authorization to Construct has been waived, the Division requests that upon
project completion a letter be submitted acknowledging that the project has been completed according to plans and
specifications.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Michael J. Myers at (919) 733-5083,
extension 508.

RE: Town of Boiling Springs
Lyman Street Pump Station Modification
Dear Mr. Gleason:
This letter with accompanying plans is to request an Authorization to Construct for an
emergency overflow by-pass at the referred pump station. The Town wishes to utilize the
nearby abandoned wastewater treatment plant as a temporary holding tank. Occasionally,
the pump station cannot keep up with the inflow due to VI. This proposed measure
would prevent overflow onto the ground. The high water alarm and autodialer will still
be activated before any flow enters the holding tank so that Town personnel can then
begin hauling the overflow wastewater to the W WTP.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please let me know.
Sincerely,
WEST AND ASSOCIATES, PA
