Section B—Project Narrative
Johnston County Public Utilities
Johnston County Public Utilities (County)owns and operates the Neuse River Wastewater Pump Station
(PS). This PS was placed in service circa 1981. The PS receives wastewater via an existing 12-inch gravity
sewer that parallels U.S. HWY 301 (S. Brightleaf Blvd). This gravity sewer receives wastewater from the
County's Holt Lake PS and nearby contributing gravity sewer.The existing Neuse River PS then conveys
wastewater through an existing 3,931 LF 8-inch force main (FM) that discharges to 7,300 LF 12-and 15-
inch existing gravity sewer that conveys wastewater to the Central Johnston County Wastewater
Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Smithfield.
As part of this project,the existing Neuse River PS will be demolished, and a new PS constructed
approximately 1,000 feet to the west along U.S. HWY 301. A new Neuse River PS is proposed for various
reasons,which are:
1. The PS is in deteriorating condition and is challenging to access.
2. The PS lies within the 100-year floodplain.
3. The PS requires relocation to accommodate NCDOT BR-0086 bridge replacement project across
the Neuse River.
4. Increased flows are anticipated due to ongoing development and related upstream PS upgrades
(Four Oaks PS, Holt Lake PS).
The existing Neuse River PS does not have an NCDEQ WQ number.The Neuse River PS was originally
part of the County of Johnston Wastewater Interceptors and Pumping Facilities to Serve Pine Level and
Four Oaks project designed by Ragsdale Engineers, P.A., dated May of 1978 (EPA Project No.
C37056004). The Neuse River PS was originally constructed with a firm capacity of 390 gpm and included
the following components:
1. Approximately 21-ft x 17-ft brick building housing pump station equipment.
2. Eight (8)foot diameter circular wet well with a (2) self-priming suction-lift raw sewage pumps.
3. Associated instrumentation equipment, including a magnetic flow meter inside a circular meter
vault outside of the PS.
4. Associated electrical equipment.
5. 55-gallon underground fuel tank.
6. 2-inch water service and 3/4-inch water meter.
7. Various 12-inch gravity sewer piping from the Town of Four Oaks.
8. 3,931 LF 8-inch force main (3,436 LF of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC),49S LF of ductile iron (DI)).
Since its original construction,the Neuse River PS has been upgraded. Today, the estimated firm
capacity of the Neuse River PS remains at 390 gpm. Known upgrades to the PS include:
1. Replacement of the original suction-lift style pumps with (2) submersible wastewater pumps.
2. Electrical panels and control panels to supplement the pump upgrade.
3. A permanent standby diesel generator and automatic transfer switch.
4. SCADA system addition.

Once the proposed PS is constructed,the existing station will be demolished in its entirety. Since the
proposed PS is being constructed west of the existing station,five(5) sewer manholes and 936 LF 12-
inch gravity sewer will be abandoned with flowable fill.
The proposed Neuse River PS and associated improvements will result in a firm capacity of 2.16 mgd
(1,500 gpm).The proposed Neuse River PS includes:
1. Rectangular cast-in-place wet-well with an influent sewage grinder,three(3)wet-pit
submersible pumps((2)duty and (1) standby)on reduced voltage soft starts.
2. Valve vault and flow meter vault with associated equipment.
3. Pad-mounted utility transformer, standby diesel generator,and automatic transfer switch.
4. Electrical equipment rack and space for a future electrical building.
5. Local visual and audible alarm.
6. Remote annunciation via a new SCADA pole.
7. Vapor-phase odor control system.
8. Water system improvements including a 1-inch water service,yard hydrant,water meter,and a
reduced pressure zone(RPZ) and backflow preventer assembly.
9. Associated piping improvements, including:
1. Approximately 120 LF 16-inch C900 PVC gravity sewer, including 70 LF of steel casing
beneath U.S. HWY 301.
2. Two manholes
3. Approximately 500 LF 12-inch C900 PVC and 160 LF 14-inch HDPE force main.
4. On-site bypass pumping connection.
For the interim,the existing force main (3,375 LF of 8-inch PVC and 495 LF of 8-inch DIP force main)will
be reused. The County has, however,started to design replacement of the existing 8-inch force main
with a 12-inch force main that will instead discharge directly to the County's Central WWTP.This
replacement is occurring in two parts. First, NCDOT's bridge design engineer is designing a section of
new 12"force main across the proposed bridge. Another consultant for the County is designing the 12-
inch force main from the bridge to the County's WWTP. Permit applications for these improvements will
be submitted in the future as a modification to this Neuse River PS permit.

Neuse River Pump Station Replacement
Fast Track Application - Response to Comments
Dear Mr. Pasha:
Thank you for your comments on the Neuse River Pump Station Replacement Fast Track application.
Your comments from May 29, 2024 are listed below with responses, and revised documents are
enclosed.
1. Section 1.3 of the FTA should provide the title of the signatory authority.
Response:Please see the revised FTA 10-23 Fast Track Application form enclosed.
2. Section VI.7 is missing the existing or estimated flow for the specific request.Although you
mentioned '0'flow in Section V1.8, we need to know the established type and associated flow
for this permit. Additionally, it is important as the existing system does not have any permit
number.
Response:Given available data at this time, Section V1.7 has been updated in accordance with
the residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional flow designations provided in the NC
DWR Local Water Supply Plan (LWSP). From the LWSP, the total number of connections and daily
water usage for all residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial connections within the
service area are known. These values, adjusted for hours of operation and wastewater usage,
have been provided in the revised application. Please see the revised FTA 10-23 Fast Track
Application form enclosed.
3. Section V11.1 of the FTA only provides the length of 130 feet gravity sewer. However,your
narrative explains the other. Please update the table with notes for the newly proposed gravity
sewers and existing gravity sewers that will remain in service.
Response:Please see the revised FTA 10-23 Fast Track Application form enclosed.
