Ms. Wilson,
Please see the responses below to your comments on the Oakwood Phase IA WQ0044608 provided on March 25,
2024. The responses provided in this letter are numbered to match the comments that they address. The original
comments are attached below.
1. At the request of the developer, the I I single family homes have been updated to 4 bedrooms. The
calculations have been updated.
2. Sheets from the plan set have been provided outlining the sewer included in Phase IA. Internal infastrure in
Phase I is outlined in green and the outfall included in Phase I is outlined in purple.
3. The pervious application considered that the existing pumpstation at LJ Rodgers would be taken oflline and
a new outfall constructed to the receiving sewer number previously indicated. Phase lA does not include
taking that pump station oflline at this time so the downstream sewer number was removed.
4. Yes, the 12" lines are not included in Phase IA.
If you have any further questions please feel free to reach out to me directly.
Thank you,
William Wirt, PE

Subject: Fast Track Sewer Application Oakwood Subdivision Phase 1,4
Will —
Thank you for the brief conversation this morning. I have abetter idea of what Mebane is trying to do now. So DWR
will modify the previously issued permit (WQ0044608) to include only Phase 1A (appx. 2410 LF 8 inch) and the
addition of appx.1690 LF of 8 inch. Mebane will apply for Phase 1 B under a completely new permit (new permit
number, not a modification to this Phase 1 A permit). Just be aware that once Phase 1 A is modified and issued
there will be no Phase 1 B until the new permit is applied for and issued (just want to make sure everyone is clear
on this).
Regarding this permit modification:
1. As stated in the narrative — this is for 11 SFRs and 47 townhomes. I assume 3 bedrooms based on the flow
calculation? (fine to use the 75 GPD/bedroom, as you have done, based on the current legislation passed
10/10/23)
2. Please provide a clear map noting where Phase 1A and 1 B are divided, a general indication of where those
lines are located, where the additional lines are located, and where this ties into the receiving sewer.
think you provided a sewer flow diagram with the original permit— it may just need to be revised a bit.
3. The previous application had a downstream sewer number of WQ0032351 and this application states N/A
(part V.1. of the application).
4. Are the 12 inch lines previously permitted only being associated with the forthcoming Phase 1 B? Please
just review and confirm.
If anyone has questions, let me know. Tried to go through this quickly, as it wasn't as simple as I thought it was
going to be with addition of new tines (if I'm understanding correctly).
Respectfully,
Susan Wilson

SUPERSEDES:
NIA
PREPARED BY:
Franz Holt, City Engineer
ADOPTED BY COUNCIL:
DATE: August 2, 2021
PURPOSE
To establish a policy to implement strategies as presented to Council that limits the accumulation of
Paper Flow (wastewater permitted at State mandated flows per bedroom which is typically 2 times
higher than when on line/tributary) which impacts available wastewater treatment and pump station
capacity. Strategies will include the following items.
A. Wastewater Permitting Implementation.
B. Plan review and Approval Process.
C. Service Prioritization and Wastewater Reservation.
GENERAL
1. Applicability
This policy applies to all development prior to and after adoption of this policy.
2. The following are made effective for residential development approved prior to the adoption of this
policy.
A. Permitting wastewater for multiple phases of a multi -phased residential project at one time will
not be allowed.
B. Permitting wastewater for additional phases of residential development may be done once a
final plat has been approved for the current phase provided that the City Engineer approves the
number of lots being platted.

C. Sub -phasing of larger phases of residential development once the wastewater is permitted
will not be allowed (permit only what the developer intends to plat as a phase).
3. The following strategies are made effective for newly approved residential development after the
adoption of this policy.
A. Permitting wastewater for multiple phases of a multi -phased project at one time will not be
allowed.
B. Permitting wastewater for additional phases of development may be done once a final plat has
been recorded and construction starts for 50% of the residential units has occurred.
C. Sub -phasing of larger phases once the wastewater is permitted will not be allowed (permit
only what the developer intends to plat as a phase).
D. For multi -family projects the maximum number of units permitted in any calendar year are 72
(typically 3 buildings at 24 units each).
4. The following strategies are made effective for plan review and approval process.
A. TRC meetings for residential project will occur once a month.
B. Non-residential projects will be reviewed at either of the two currently scheduled meetings.
C. Prior to moving forward through the plan review and approval process, proposed major multi -
phased developments of 300 residential units or more will require review as to the City's ability to
provide needed services beyond and including wastewater.
5. The following strategies are made effective to encourage future development that maintains a
balance of residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial growth through wastewater capacity
reservation and development prioritization.
A. Upon completion of the planned reroutes of wastewater to the Graham WWTP and WRRF
expansion the following wastewater reservations will be implemented:
L Orange County Buckhom Economic Development District - 130,000 gallons per day
ii. NCIC and CCIC - 70,000 gallons per day
iii. Commercial/Office/Institutional—100,000 gallons per day
iv. Infill development not requiring a permit—100,000 gallons per day
B. Additional prioritization implementation as to the type of development served will be as follows:
L Areas that have a general health need.
ii. Industrial, Office & Institutional, Commercial and Unique Residential Projects in and
nearby Historic Downtown Mebane.
iii. Residential development not requiring new pump stations and oversized facilities.
iv. Residential development requiring oversized facilities where oversizing
reimbursement requirements are waived by the developer.
6. Other Items
A. Policy will be explained and distributed to developers.
B. Success of new strategies will be reviewed on an annual basis.
C. Policy is subject to change with Council approval.
D. Complete a flow reduction study for State review and approval for flow to the Graham WWTP.

Project Narrative:
This application is a revision to the previously approved permit, WQ0044608 issued on
9/8/2023 for Oakwood Subdivision Phase 1. Phasing has been revised to split Phase 1 into two
phases, Phase 1A and Phase 113. As required by the City of Mebane's Paper Flow Policy
(included with this submittal), the sewer for the new Phase 1A must be fully permitted prior to
applying for the Phase IB extension permit. No portion of Phase 1 sewer as it currently
permitted has been certified. Phase 1A consists of 11 single family homes and 47 townhouse
units. In addition, it will also include the existing sanitary sewer outfall that is located behind
the subdivision Oakwood Townes.
Items to be added to WQ0044608: The outfall, which consists of 7 existing manholes and 1,601
LF of 8" PVC and 89 LF of 8" DIP.
Items to be modified in WQ0044608: The gravity sewer extension in Phase IA which consists of
17 new manholes, 1,605 LF of 8" PVC and 805 LF of 8" DIP as summarized in the table in section
VII of the FTA attached.
This project does require coverage under a 404 (SAW-2018-01858) and 401 (WQC005039)
permits, both of which have been approved.
