III. Certification Statement:
I Jeffrey Lohr, RE, Assoc. DBIA 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.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM(PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section II where Available Capacity is<0.
Pump Station(Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated,Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow(C)accounts for
41 %and .2577 MGD of the Available Capacity(E) in Pump Station
Halls Creek ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
.0254 MGD per year; and that
c. A funded Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
Hwy 24 Utility Corridor Project 18" FM and is in design or under construction with
is in design or under construction with pump
stations
planned completion in 2026 ; and/or
d. The following applies:
See attached Narrative for ONWASA plant status and current Capital Projects
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.
I understand that this does not relieve the collection system owner from complying with G.S. 143-
215.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste disposal
system.

TREATMENT FACILITY INFORMATION
SWANSBORO WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY
Facility Description
The Swansboro Wastewater Treatment Facility is located at 199 Williams Street, just
outside the incorporation limits of the Town of Swainsboro. This facility utilizes a
conventional activated sludge treatment process and high-rate infiltration basins for
effluent disposal, with a permitted capacity of 0.600 MGD. Treatment equipment
includes an aerated equalization basin and headworks with automatic bar screen and
grit removal system rated at 1.5 MGD; two 300,000-gallon capacity oxidation ditches
with aeration rotor assemblies; three secondary clarifiers; two rotating cloth disk filters
with automatic backwash; and an ultraviolet light post-treatment disinfection system with
a sodium hypochlorite back-up. Treated effluent is then sent via an on-site pumping
station and force main to one of four high-rate infiltration basins (totaling 15.24 acres)
that are located six miles west of the plant on Parkertown Road. Waste sludge from the
treatment process is sent to a 46,900-gallon aerated sludge digester and 315,000-gallon
aerated sludge holding tank for further treatment and eventual land application for
disposal.

Comments
An environmental engineering firm under contract with ONWASA completed work on a
Capacity Evaluation Study of this facility. A copy of this document is available for review at
the ONWASA Central Office, 228 Georgetown Road, Jacksonville, NC. This study included
an assessment of existing conditions at the plant, projections of future population growth
and sewer demand in the service area, and the development of alternatives to address that
future demand. These included the construction of a replacement treatment facility,
expansion of the existing plant, and the sending of all flow to a third party(the French Creek
WWTP aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune) for treatment/disposal. In December
2019, the ONWASA Board of Directors reviewed the alternatives presented and directed
the engineering firm to conduct additional analysis on capital and operating expenses for
Page 12 of 16

selected alternatives before making a final recommendation on how to proceed. In 2020,
An agreement was made with Camp Lejeune to receive sewer flow from the Swansboro
area.
The project is currently in the Bidding Phase, utilizing two separate contracts. Contract 1
will construct the 18" and 16" Wastewater Force Main and Contract 2 will construct the four
Wastewater Pump Stations, contract award for both contracts is anticipated for September
2024. In the interim of the construction being completed for Contract 1 and 2, improvements
to the Swansboro WWTP are being considered such as adding EOPs or additional
Infiltration Basins to accommodate the incremental flows anticipated due to growth in the
sewer shed.

facility:
Month: March
