Dear To Whom It May Concern,
Please find enclosed (1) original and (1) copy of Fast -Track Application and
supporting documents, and (1) fee check ($480.00).
We are proposing to modify the existing permit WQ 0037855 to add an additional
31,68o gpd flow in order to serve the remaining 881ots within the subdivision.
Please review for approval and contact us with any questions, comments or additional
information needed.
Sincerely,

III. Certification Statement:
I Matthew Trib�tta,j.CFPUA Ena. Karr certify to the best of any 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 plating assessment addendums for which I any the responsible party. Signature of this
form indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.

PLANNING ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM (PAA)
Submit a planning assessment addendum for each pump station listed in Section H where Available
Capacity is <_ Of
Pump Station (Name or Number):
Given that:
a. The proportion and amount of Obligated, Not Yet Tributary Daily Flow (C) accounts for
42% total flow % and 0.059 MGD of the Available Capacity (E) in Pump Station
97 ; and that
b. The rate of activation of this obligated, not yet tributary capacity is currently approximately
MAW MGD per year; and that
c. A funded. Capital Project that will provide the required planned capacity, namely
Bunn meade Capacity in Chair Rd F11/.[ is in design or under construction with
planned completion in alreLd com fete ; and/or
d. The following applies:
CFPUA recently corn feted the'Runn eade Ca acit in Chair Ind FM' capital ro'ect
that allows ap2roximately 0.062 MGD currenk tribute to Pum Station 97 to be diverted
direcd to Northside WWTT',
Therefore:
Given reasonably expected conditions and planning information, there is sufficient justification to
allow the 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 -
21 5.67(a) which prohibits the introduction of any waste in excess of the capacity of the waste
disposal system.
