BRIAR CHAPEL DEVELOPMENT
US Steel Section 2
April 03, 2018
PROJECT NARRATIVE
The purpose of the project is to construct lots in US Steel Section 2 of the Briar
Chapel Subdivision. The work includes roadway, public water utility, sanitary
sewer and storm drainage infrastructure to serve it. This phase includes 55 single
family residential lots. All lots will ultimately gravity flow to a previously permitted
pump station in the Phase 15 North area (Permit #WQ0038321). Lots on the
eastern portion of the site will be served by a low pressure sewer system, to be
permitted at a later date. The sewer allocation for all lots is included with this
permit package.
Per agreement with DWR as of September 30, 2013, a flow reduction was granted
for the Briar Chapel development for 56 gallons per day per bedroom. Based on a
letter issued to DWR by CE Group on behalf of the project, paper flow rates of 190
GPD/Home will be used moving forward on this project.
Average daily flow data provided in the attached FTSE is based on the highest
average daily flow reported in November 2017. Paper flow is determined based
on permitted lots which have not yet become tributary to the system, based on
sales data provided by the developer at the time of submittal.
Summary of Sewer Lines to be permitted:
• 560 LF of 8 -inch PVC gravity sewer
• 262 LF of 8 -inch DI gravity sewer
Serving 55 lots @ 190/gpd/lot discharging 10,450 gpd.
The sewage and wastewater collected by this system will be treated in the on-site
wastewater treatment facility:

(flow reduction) request that would apply to all permitted but riot yet tributary residential connections
and all future residential connections tributary to the Briar Chapel Development collection system,
in accordance with 15A NC4[02T .0114(f)(2), the Division has evaluated all the submitted data and
based nnthe data submitted, the Division hereby approves for use bythe Briar Chapel Development an
adjusted daily sewage design flow rate of 56 gallons per day per bedroom effective immediately.
For new sewer extension applications with proposed flows tributary to the Briar Chapel Development
collection system:
° The flow reduction isapplicable toresidential single family dwellings only.
w The minimum flow for 1and 2bedroom dwellings shall be112gallons per day.
* This flow reduction shall not apply to sewer extension applications and/or permits for any other
public or private organizations whose wastewater flows are or might become tributary to the
Booth Mountain (VVestfaU)Project collection system.

Future sewer extension applications should be made using the flow reduction amount stated above. All
other aspects of the permitting process remain unchanged, and all applications must be in compliance
with the statues, rules, regulations and minimum design criteria as certified by the owner and engineer.
Regardless of the adiusted design daily wastewater flow rate at no time shall the wastewater flows
exceed the effluent limits defined in the Non -discharge Permit for the treatment facility or exceed the
caoacitv of the sewers downstream of anv new sewer extension or service connections .
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 regulations contained in 15A
NCAC 02T, NCGS 143-215.1, or as needed to address changes in State and/or Federal regulations with
respect to wastewater collection systems, protection of surface waters and/or wastewater treatment.
