PROJECT NARRATIVE
The proposed Floyd Landing Subdivision is a single-family residential project located on
a +/- 147.332 acre tract located off US Hwy. 70 Business within the Town limits of
Smithfield. The ultimate development will consist of the construction of 309 single-
family units (including townhomes) that will include 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom homes.
The first 163 units and pump station were permitted on November I, 2022 with permit
#WQ0043785 for a flow rate of 44,010 gpd. A recent permit modification on June 61h
2024 increased the approved wastewater allocated flow to 76,050 GPD. The purpose of
this permit modification is to update the pumping rate for the permitted lift station from
547 GPM to 622 GPM. No other changes to the current permit.
Required roadway, utility, and stream and buffer impacts have been approved via 401
DWR#220220143 and 404 SAW-2021-00788.

to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur. Part II of Form CS-SSO (or the most current
Division approved form) can also be completed to show that the SSO was beyond control. [G.S. 143-
215.1C(a1)]
6. Construction of the gravity sewers, pump stations, and force mains shall be scheduled so as not to
interrupt service by the existing utilities nor result in an overflow or bypass discharge of wastewater

If the permit is issued to a private entity with an Operational Agreement, then a copy of the
Articles of Incorporation, Declarations/Covenants/Restrictions, and Bylaws that have been
appropriately filed with the applicable County's Register of Deeds office shall be submitted with
the certification.
A complete certification is one where the form is fully executed and the supporting documents are
provided as applicable. Supporting documentation shall include the following:
a. One copy of the project construction record drawings (plan & profile views of sewer lines &
force mains) of the wastewater collection system extension. Final record drawings should be
clear on the plans or on digital media (CD or DVD disk) and are defined as the design drawings
that are marked up or annotated with after construction information and show required buffers,
separation distances, material changes,etc.
b. One copy of the supporting applicable design calculations including pipe and pump sizing,
velocity, pump cycle times, and level control settings, pump station buoyancy, wet well storage,
surge protection, detention time in the wet well, and force main, ability to flush low points in
force mains with a pump cycle, and downstream sewer capacity analysis. If a portable power

DocuSign Envelope ID 44E7EF8C-CA6B-44A1-BF38-AC2384BF20E8
source or pump is dedicated to multiple stations, an evaluation of all the pump stations' storage
capacities and the rotation schedule of the portable power source or pump, include travel
timeframes, shall be provided.
c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations,or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings,on the certification
in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting
in non-compliance with this permit (including but not limited to pipe length changes of 10% or
greater, increased flow, pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and
increases in the number/type of connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria.
Requested modifications or variances to the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-
case basis and each on its own merit. Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria
should be requested and approved during the permitting process prior to construction. After-
construction requests are discouraged by the Division and may not be approved, thus requiring
replacement or repair prior to certification&activation. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]
8. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the
Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified
until corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined,a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation.
This shall be done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests will be evaluated
on a case-by-case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and
submitting the construction certification. [ 1SA NCAC 02T.0105(n)]
9. A copy of the individual permit and construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the
Permittee for the life of the wastewater collection facilities. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]

Division's Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's
Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast-Track Permitting of Pump Station and Force Mains adopted
June 1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting materials may subject the Permittee to an
enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes§143-215.6A
through §143-215.6C, construction of additional or replacement wastewater collection facilities,
and/or referral of the North Carolina-licensed Professional Engineer to the licensing board. [15A
NCAC 02T.0108(b-c)]
11. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including
those as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement
facilities. [15A NCAC 02T.0110; 15A NCAC 02T.0108(b)]
12. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by the Division any other Federal, State, or
