The pERject is planned for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. 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.

The letter requests approval of a residential flow value of 220 GPD/residence for these dwellings. The information provided water use information for 2000 and actual daily waste water flow recordings for their peak month of May. Other supporting data was provided. The evaluation covered 90 homes that are representative of the subdivisions in Fuquay-Varina in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(1)(3). Based on the information submitted, the Division hereby approves the use of 75 GPD per bedroom per dwelling for residential units (225 GPD per three bedroom home) in all applicable non -discharge permit applications for future sewer line extensions and present, but not yet tributary projects for the Town of Fuquay- Varina. The Division did note that the average flow per residence in February 2000 was 271 GPD. Regardless of the adiusted desi dailv wastewater flow rate. at no time shall the wastewater flows exceed the effluent limits defined in the Town's NPDES permit for the treatment facility or exceed the capacity of the sewers downstream of any new sewer extension. Please submit a separate letter to the Raleigh Regional Office that requests flow reductions for specific previously permitted projects (indicate permit number, project name, Permitted flow, new flow under reduction and the difference,between them).
