WANCHESE SEAFOOD PARK (C)Copyright 2016,Trinble Navigation Limed Datum:NAD83 Exhibit A—Treatment System Wastewater Treatment Summary The following summary is taken from documentation provided by WMIP and previously prepared by Cavanaugh & Associates, P.A. 2009. "The proposed sanitary sewer system will be capable of treating 13,500 gpd, and a peak daily flow of 33,750 gpd; consisting of automatic screenings unit, Pre and secondary anoxic treatment, Intermittent Aerobic treatment, membrane filtration units, ultraviolet disinfection system, and , all buy the Pre-Equalization provided in duality. The treatment process improvements shall also include a waste sludge digester and pre-equalization basin. All pumps, motors, blowers, and mechanical equipment to be provided in pairs such that any given unit may accommodate the peak flow conditions with the paired unit out of service. The wastewater treatment system shall be provided with all valving, piping, controls, motors, wiring, and appurtenances required to provide a complete and functioning wastewater treatment system." HEADWORKS Two (2) mechanically cleaned Drum Screens have been furnished to catch debris at the point the influent enters the plant and are located adjacent to the walkway for easy operator access. These units deposit the dewatered debris into a collection pan which also drains the material before being emptied into covered bins for removal from the plant. PRE-EQUALIZATION BASIN (8,917 gallons) The Pre-Equalization Basin receives and stores all flows to the Pre-Anoxic Basins in excess of the design flow of 13,500 CIPD or 9.4 gpm. The basic is provided with aeration to keep the sewage fresh and two (2) Pre-Equalization Return pumps which return the excess flow to the plant both of which can pump at 35 gpm. Also, the decanted supernatant discharges into the Pre-Equalization Basin. PRE-ANOXIC BASINS (1,773 gallons each) The Dualized Pre-Anoxic Basins receive the screened raw wastewater from the Flow Control Box and the nitrate rich returned mixed liquor from the Intermittent Aeration Basin. The streams are mixed (not aerated) to facilitate the Denitrification process. INTERMITTENT AERATION BASINS (3,831 gallons each) The Dualized Intermittent Aeration Basins oxidize the remaining BOD and ammonia to form nitrates and new cell mass. Denitrification is also partially done by turning off the air to the Basins and mixing the mixed liquor with the mixers. Metal salts such as liquid Alum is metered into the tanks to precipitate the soluble Phosphates. SECONDARY-ANOXIC BASINS (1,018 gallons each) The Secondary Anoxic Basins receive the mixed liquor from the Intermittent Aeration Basins and by mixing the mixed liquor with a small amount of citric acid (which provides the readily available carbon source), denitrifies the remaining nitrates before the mixture is pumped to the Membrane Bioreactor Tanks by the Mixed Liquor Feed Forward Pumps. MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR TANKS The Membrane Bioreactor Tanks hold the membranes and the violently agitated mixed liquor. The suction of the Permeate Pumps pulls the filtered water through the membranes and pumps it to the UV Disinfection units and to the Effluent Storage Tanks. UV DISINFECTION UNITS The Permeate or filtered effluent is pumped through dual UV Disinfection units for treatment with ultraviolet light to destroy the pathogens in the water. Exposure to UV light destroys a wide variety of potentially harmful microorganisms, rendering them unable to cause disease. The dosage intensity has been designed to do this by passing through only one (1) UV Unit, but two (2) are provided for backup operation. AEROBIC DIGESTER (3,242 gallons) An Aerobic Digester has been provided to digest or reduce the volatile suspended solids content of the waste activated sludge by at least 38%. Activated sludge must be wasted periodically from the MBR basins to keep the sludge concentration at the desired level. This waste sludge requires further treatment to reduce vector attraction and to reduce pathogens which may be remaining in the waste sludge. The same aeration equipment has been provided to mix and aerate the sludge. Clear liquid (supernatant) is decanted and returned to the plant effluent at the Pre-Equalization Basin. Periodically, sludge must be removed from the Digester by the contract residuals management contractor. EFFLUENT STORAGE TANKS AND BOOSTER PUMPING STATION Effluent from the UV disinfection units is pumped by the Permeate Pumps to the two (2) Effluent Storage Tanks with a total storage of 10,000 gallons. If the Effluent Storage Tanks are full, the effluent will overflow to the Effluent Storage Pond. These tanks, along with the Effluent Storage Pond, Booster Pumping Station, the effluent reuse main and a Spray Irrigation field comprise the Effluent Disposal System.

We appreciate the reminder and email that you forwarded along with the attachments for Short Form C-MI to Mr. Bob Peele. We have already begun preparing the renewal and were using Short Form A as there is no industrial wastewater component to the (proposed Plant not yet constructed—but planned for construction)wastewater plant for the park. The only wastewater at the Seafood Park is generated from employee restrooms/breakrooms and a restaurant. There is not currently any manufacturing, processing etc. that uses water or produces any wastewater at the park. 1 Can you confirm that Short Form C-MI is in fact the appropriate form for us to use and not Short Form A? I just want to be double sure. Thanks, Warren D. Eadus, P.G.
