CAPE FEAR ACADEMY MODULAR CLASSROOM ADDITION
4008 SOUTH COLLEGE ROAD
SEWER SYSTEM:
The parcel / project site was formerly the Trinity United Methodist Church. Cape Fear
Academy has recently purchased the land. The original site included a six inch (6")
sewer service that runs through the parking lot toward the Cape Fear Academy School
to the North. The service connects to the Cape Fear Academy sewer.
A new modular building is being added to the existing site. The new sewer service from
the Modular will connect to the existing on-site six inch (6") sewer service, making it now
a main that must be permitted. This submittal is to permit this sewer as a private main.
i
This private gravity system is designed to service one (1) modular building containing a
multiple classrooms and the on-site existing building on the former Trinity United
Methodist Church site, now Cape Fear Academy school site. A total of 200 L.F of 6-inch
PVC sewer line is being permitted to complete the system. This project will generate
1 ,250 GPD (125 Students x 10 Gallons / Student) of wastewater. This new system will
not require a pump station. i
This system will be served by the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority.

III. Certification Statement:
I Jeff Theber e, CFPUA Eng. Mgr certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the receiving
wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to cause any capacity
related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station en route to the receiving '
treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation of the planned improvements
identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This analysis has been performed in accordance
with local established policies and procedures using the best available data. This certification applies to
those items listed above in Sections I and II plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I
am the responsible party. Signature of this form certifies that the receiving collection system or treatment
works has adequate capacity to transport and treat the proposed new wastewater.

RE: Cape Fear Academy Modular Classroom Addition
CFPUA File #313615.005 (Private Sewer Mainline Extension)
(You must sign and return prior permit application approval)
Dear Mr. Wells,
The Cape Fear Public Utility Authority currently has the capacity to accept the sewage flow of
1,250 (GPD) Gallons Per Day from the above referenced project. The receiving wastewater treatment
plant will be the M'Kean-Moffit SSWWTF (NPDES NC 0023973).
In order to receive sewer from CFPUA, any private system, must have its design approved by the
Authority and will require a copy of the permit application, State permit, and Engineer's certification.
Private systems must construct services to Authority specifications and install sewer guards at each
manhole including grease traps. Any private pump station's top elevation must be constructed at two (2)
feet above the routed 100-year storm elevation or FIRM maps 100-year flood, whichever is higher. All
private systems must be upgraded to the Authority specifications, at no cost to the Authority, if in the
future it is desired to convey the system to the Authority. Private systems must employ or contract with a
system operator on a 24 hour / 7-day basis and provide names and contact numbers to the Authority.
Maintenance in private systems is the responsibility of the owner/operator; private system location is
determined as designated on certification.
rf the sewer is a public system, the Authority must approve the design and sign the State permit
application. Any permits, public encroachments, and/or easements outside the development parcel(s)
must be obtained by the developer and the agreement(s) recorded prior to the required pre-construction
meeting. The Authority will not participate financially in a project if an agreement is not mutually signed
prior to the pre-construction meeting. Please see the attached public utility easement document. All offsite
easements must be approved, acquired, and recorded prior to the pre-construction meeting. No buildings,
structures, ponds, obstructions, trees, fences, or berms shall be placed, constructed, or situated within
the rights-of-way and the easements, whether existing or to be granted. The only exception is a security
fence (perpendicular to the main line, adjacent to a right-of-way, not applicable to individual lots) with
removable paneling may be granted but must be submitted for approval on a case-by-case basis, and in
any event a "Hold Harmless" agreement must be executed or incorporated into the conveyance. All
easements must be a minimum of 30 feet in width unless otherwise approved by the Authority.
Whether permitted as a public or private sewer system, the Authority must always be notified 48
hours prior to construction. The material used to connect to the system must be per Authority technical
specifications and the work must be performed by a licensed utility contractor and approved by the
Authority.

Cape Fear Academy Modular Classroom Addition, CFPUA File#313515.005
(Private Sewer Mainline Extension)
All additions to any Authority system will be documented by asbuilt drawings and per Authority
specifications. Information regarding additions shall be submitted to the Authority and shall include mylars
and a CD disk in AutoCAD format per CFPUA Technical Specifications before final inspection, approval,
and activation. Final acceptance of work is at the sole discretion of the Authority.
The owner is responsible to make all directed repairs at no cost to the Authority prior to activating
the system. All applicable fees and costs associated in connection with the Authority's sewer system must
be paid prior to or at time of application for service, Failure to pay all applicable fees and costs per the
Authority's Regulations and Ordinances may result in holds being placed on Certificate of Occupancy i
and/or System Activation.
The Authority's one (1) year warranty will start from the date the system conveyance is recorded.
Conveyance of the Public Utilities occurs upon approval of the certification from the Division of Water
Quality.
Per NCDENR, any constructed system will not be operated or otherwise activated until the
Engineer's and Applicant's Certifications have been submitted to and approved by NCDENR
Division of Water Quality. The following are required (to be provided by the developer) for the
Authority to approve certification:
1. The developer shall provide all monetary values of the Public utilities and descriptions on
the attached standard template that will become the Authority's upon final approval by the
State. i
2. The developer shall provide all lien waivers/release of liens and an affidavit that there are
no other liens against any infrastructure being certified.
3. The developer shall provide as-builts to the Authority Specifications. '
4. The developer provides all public utility easements per the attached document.
Any taps which may be deemed necessary to be installed, relocated, or abandoned will be the
responsibility of the Developer or owner at no cost to the Authority, in accordance with the Authority
specifications and approval. The Authority's inspector will perform all required cleanout inspections prior
to obtaining any Certificate of Occupancy
Unauthorized operation of CFPUA owned valves, hydrants, and other appurtenances, is
grounds for civil penalty assessment and/or other enforcement actions.
This is not a commitment of capacity. It only indicates present availability. System capacity will
change as new connections are made, potentially impacting your ability to connect some or all of your
proposed development into the Authority's system. Capacity is allocated by the Authority at the time the
NC Division of Water Quality Flow Tracking System evaluation is signed.
