Re: Wildbrook Subdivision — Phase 1 B
Gravity Sewer Line
Lincoln County, NC
Project Number6798.0916
Dear Mr. Tuvia,
Included are the design plans for 2546 linear feet of eight (8) inch gravity sewer line to
serve 85 new single-family homes for the Wildbrook Subdivision located at 1060 Rufus Rd.
Denver, North Carolina. CES Group Engineers, LLP (CES) is pleased to present these
plans for review and permitting through the Fast Tract Sewer System Extension
Application. These plans are for Phase 1 B of the subdivision and will include 85 lots with a
flow allocation of 20,400 GPD. Flow allocation is based on an average 3 bedroom home
per lot at buildout. The buildout for Phase 1 B will be for a peak design flow of 35.4 gallons
per minute (gpm).
These plans are submitted on behalf of the Owner Hawthorne Development Group.
Once complete, the sewer infrastructure will be deeded to Lincoln County for ownership,
operation, and maintenance.
The property consists of one land parcel recognized by Lincoln County GIS as Parcel
ID number 4603-30-1845. The parcel consists of approximately 73 acres.
These plans are for your review and comment. Should you have any questions please
feel free to contact me at (704)-489-1500.
Respectfully,

I Donald V. Chamblee, Jr. 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.

Residential Flow Reduction

Dear Mr. Henderson:
ROY COOPER

MICHAEL S. REGAN

S. JAY ZIMMERMAN
[Niecmr
On January 29, 2007 the Division of Water Quality (now Division of Water Resources) granted a
flow reduction for residential flow to Middle Forney Creek WWTP (NC0074012). Middle Forney
Creek has been decommissioned and the NPDES permit rescinded. The flow previously being
treated at Middle Forney Creek WWTP is now being treated at Killian Creek WWTP. All areas
currently served by Killian Creek WWTP and conveyed through pump stations It 15 and # 37
were included in the analysis done for the flow reduction granted in 2007.
Based upon the data provided by the County for the 2007 flow reduction, the Division of Water
Resources hereby approves the use of 80 GPD per residential bedroom, with a minimum of 160
gpd for one and two bedroom units in all applicable non -discharge permit applications to Killian
Creek WWTP (NC0088722). Flow shall be incremented by 80 gpd for each bedroom above two.
Regardless of the adjusted design daily wastewater flow rate, at no time shall the wastewater
flows exceed the effluent limits defined in the NPDES permit for the treatment facility of exceed
the capacity of the sewers downstream of nay new sewer extensions or service connection(s).
The granting of this flow reduction does not prohibit the Division from reopening, revoking,
reissuing and /or modifying the flow reduction as allowed by the laws, rules, and regulation
contained in 15A NCAC 02T, NCGS 143-215.1, or as needed to address changed in State and/or
Federal regulations with respect to wastewater collection systems, protection of surface waters
and/or wastewater treatment.

RE: Wildbrook Subdivision Phase 113 (85 Lots Only) Sewer Availability
Mr. Howey,
This letter is provided in response to your request, dated June 8, 2018, for flow acceptance of the
wastewater treatment infrastructure (the "System") for the Wildbrook Phase I13(85 Lots Only)
Development (the "ProjecC). Lincoln County (the "County") has the actual average daily flow capacity
at its Killian Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant to treat the domestic wastewater as requested, and does
conditionally grant approval for the Project, subject, however, to the terms and conditions below:
1. The amount of flow requested for the Project is for 85 lots with a total flow of 20,400 gallons
per day of additional flow at the NCDENR approved reduced flow rate of 240 gallons per day per
home into LS -15; and
2. For the NCDEQ Permits, the receiving sewer treatment facility is the Killian Creek W WTP,
Permit #NC 0088722. The sewer collections facility is the East Lincoln County Water and Sewer
District, Permit #WQCS 00149; and
3. The County shall not be named as the Permittee on NCDENQ system applications. You must
make the application to NCDEQ in your own name for the System; and
4. Acceptance of the System and transferal of the System to the County is subject to the
following:
a. A complete final inspection and approval of the System by the County, and receipt of other
applicable documentation requested by the County; and
b. Approval of the System by NCDEQ, and proof provided to the County of a valid permit issued
by NCDEQ with an Authorization to Construct (ATC); and
c. Initiating construction of the Project within two years of the date of this conditional approval.
You must notify the Lincoln County Public Works Department in writing when construction of
the Project is initiated; and
d. The County continuing to have actual average daily flow capacity to treat the domestic
wastewater as requested at the time all other conditions precedent have been satisfied.

This acceptance and allocation of flow shall only be effective upon your compliance with all of
the above terms and conditions and the County providing an acknowledgment that you have complied
with all of the above terms and conditions.
Included in this mailing is the Flow Tracking/Acceptance for Sewer Extension Permit
Applications (FTSE — 04/16) with the County's portion completed.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 704-736-8497.
