As part of the Fast Track Sewer Application for the Poplin Meadows project, it is required that a Cover
Letter accompany the application.
This project will include the construction of 99 single-family attached residential lots on newly
constructed public roadways within Union County, NC, as well as associated utilities, drainage, and
landscaping. The proposed sanitary sewer system will tie-in to an existing sanitary sewer system to the
east of the project with a public main extension. The required flow allocation for this project is
28,215GPD.
This package includes the information listed below in order to permit the project described above for a
public sewer main extension.
• Cover letter
• Sewer FTA Application
• Application Fee ($480)
• USGS Topo Map, Street Level Map
• Flow Tracking Form

III. Certification Statement:
I Crystal O. Panico certify to the best of my 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 planning assessment addendums for which I am the responsible party. Signature of this
form indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.
