permitted reclaimed water treatment, storage, and distribution facilities for the purpose of supplying a
reclaimed water demand not to exceed 100,000 gallons per day (GPD) to commercial, industrial, and
institutional users. The Apex Reclaimed Water Program shall consist of:
the reclaimed water treatment and storage facilities at the Middle Creek Water Reclamation Facility
consisting of the following components: a continuous turbidity monitoring and recording device at the
existing sulfur building, a tablet chlorinator with solution tank and hypochlorite feed system, an effluent
transfer pump station consisting of two (2) 350 gallon per minute (GPM) pumps operating at 25 feet total
dynamic head (TDH) with audible and visual high water alarms, onsite standby generator, a flow meter, a
100,000 gallon reclaimed water storage tank and all meters, valves, fittings, piping,
instrumentation/control systems, electrical items and other related appurtenances required to make a
complete and operational reclaimed water treatment and storage system,
the reclaimed distribution facilities consisting of the following components: a high service pump station
consisting of two (2) 625 GPM pumps operating at 260 feet TDH with audible and visual high water
alarms, a flow meter, approximately 9,626 linear feet of eight -inch diameter reclaimed water force main,
a 100,000 gallon elevated reclaimed , water storage tank and all meters, valves, fittings, piping,
instrumentation/control systems, electrical items and other related appurtenances required to make a
complete and operational reclaimed water distribution and offsite storage system,
and a bulls reclaimed water distribution program and all associated facilities at the Middle Creek Water
Reclamation Facility (NPDES Permit No. NC0064050). Bulk reclaimed water, following treatment and
testing according to the water reclamation facility's existing NPDES permit and the conditions provided
herein, may be manually distributed from an eight -inch quick connect male coupling and gate valve
tapped onto a proposed eight -inch reclaimed water line that serves the water reclamation facility. All
reclaimed water distributed must be measured and recorded by a flow -metering device. Bulk reclaimed
water may only be distributed to approved trucks and drivers for the following uses: sewer line flushing,
street sweeping, irrigation of landscapes not intended for human consumption, and construction uses such
