Incident 201801762
Sanitary Sewer Overflow —September 16, 2018
Dear Mr. Basinger,
I am writing to provide additional information regarding the above noted sanitary sewer overflow that
took place on 9/16/2018.
The area received 11" -12" rain in approximately two-day time frame due to Hurricane Florence. The
entire area was underwater and there was not much we could do until it was safe, and the waters
receded. I have enclosed a picture of the area for your review. The area was monitored during this event
but as already stated the entire area was flooded including the roadways. After approximately 19 hours
the waters started to recede, and the overflow was stopped on 9/17/2018 at approximately 8:31 am.
The amount of overflow was a visual estimation of 950 gallons. The S5O was reported to Division of
Emergency Management on 9/16/2017 as required.
There were no known fish kills or other known impact to the tributary. This event was caused by a
severe natural condition that was outside of our control.
The staff of CWSNC takes pride in the compliance and environmental stewardship of our facility. Please
accept this letter as demonstration that the actions taken were prompt and complete and that the SSO
was unintentional.

Should you have any further questions or if I can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to
contact me at 704-319-0523.
Sincerely,
Tony Konsul
