Concord, NC 28027 704.786.1783 4 704.795.1564 Fax www.wsacc.org This is an approval of the flow acceptance request received by the Water and Sewer Authority of Cabarrus County (WSACC) from the Town of Harrisburg on June 28, 2018. WSACC has or will have capacity at the Rocky River Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant and appropriate sewer interceptors to transport and treat the commercial wastewater from the proposed project entitled Southwest Elementary School, located near Hickory Ridge Road in Harrisburg. The referenced project includes a 1000 -student school with cafeteria, with 12,000 gallons per day (gpd) wastewater flow projected. The wastewater generated by this project will be conveyed through a proposed gravity system, and then enter WSACC's system at the existing 24 -inch McKee Creek Interceptor. WSACC agrees to accept wastewater from the proposed development based on information provided by Chambers Engineering, P.A. (Civil Engineer for the project) using North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) wastewater flow guidelines. The WSACC Capital Improvement Program (CIP) has been on pay as you go since Fiscal Year 2005 — 2006, funding Capital Projects entirely from Capital Reserves, and WSACC expects to continue this policy into the future. Projects on the CIP are subject to approval by WSACC's Board of Directors, support from local governing bodies, regulatory approval, and funding availability. It should be noted that the list and schedule of CIP projects are tentative and are revised periodically to reflect changing conditions and needs. If construction of this project is not started within two (2) years of the date of this approval, the approval is rescinded and a second request and approval will be required. Please notify WSACC, in writing, when construction of this project is initiated. If you have any questions, please call me at (704) 786-1783, extension 228. Sincerely, �`'(�z " J.
