permit is not required, the following performance criteria shall be met: [15A NCAC 02T .0108(b)]:
a. The sewer system shall be effectively maintained and operated at all times to prevent discharge
to land or surface waters, and to prevent any contravention of groundwater standards or surface
water standards.
b. A map of the sewer system shall be developed and shall be actively maintained.
c. An operation and maintenance plan including pump station inspection frequency, preventative
maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory and overflow response has been developed and
implemented.

days per year). Pump stations that are connected to a telemetry system shall be inspected at
least once per week.
e. High-priority sewer lines shall be inspected at least once per every six -months and inspections are

c. Changes to the project that do not result in non-compliance with this permit, regulations, or the
Minimum Design Criteria should be clearly identified on the record drawings, on the certification
in the space provided, or in written summary form.
Prior to Certification (Final or Partial): Permit modifications are required for any changes resulting in
non-compliance with this permit (including pipe length increases of 10% or greater, increased flow,
pump station design capacity design increases of 5% or greater, and increases in the number/type of
connections), regulations, or the Minimum Design Criteria. Requested modifications or variances to
the Minimum Design Criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and each on its own merit.
Please note that variances to the Minimum Design Criteria should be requested and approved during
the permitting process prior to construction. After -construction requests are discouraged by the
Division and may not be approved, thus requiring replacement or repair prior to certification &
activation. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]
8. Gravity sewers installed greater than ten percent below the minimum required slope per the Division's
Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria shall not be acceptable and shall not be certified until
corrected. If there is an unforeseen obstacle in the field where all viable solutions have been
examined, a slope variance can be requested from the Division with firm supporting documentation.
This shall be done through a permit modification with fee. Such variance requests will be evaluated
on a case-by-case basis. Resolution of such request shall be evident prior to completing and submitting
the construction certification. [ 15A NCAC 02T.0105(n)]
9. A copy of the construction record drawings shall be maintained on file by the Permittee for the life of
the wastewater collection facilities. [15A NCAC 02T.0116]
10. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit; 15A NCAC 2T; the Division's
Gravity Sewer Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 and updated March 2008,
as applicable; the Division's Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Station
and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000 and updated March 2008 as applicable; and other supporting
materials may subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division, in accordance with
North Carolina General Statutes §143-215.6A through §143-215.6C, construction of additional or
replacement wastewater collection facilities, and/or referral of the North Carolina -licensed
Professional Engineer to the licensing board. [15A NCAC 02T.0104; 15A NCAC 02T .0108(b -c)]
11. In the event that the wastewater collection facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the
creation of nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those
as may be required by this Division, such as the construction of additional or replacement facilities.
[15A NCAC 02T.0110; 15A NCAC 02T .0108(b)]
12. The issuance of this permit shall not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes,
rules, regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by the Division any other Federal, State, or Local
government agencies which have jurisdiction or obtaining other permits which may be required by
the Division or any other Federal, State, of Local government agencies. [G.S. 143-215.1(b)]
