64 <br /> Kimley>>>Horn Page 21 <br /> as a dead end throughout both phases of the Project. Applicant shall ensure that NCDEQ and <br /> OAWS design criteria and/or direction are followed specific to the proposed dead-end water line. <br /> Response:A flushing hydrant and mechanical joint cap are now shown at the termination <br /> of the proposed waterline. Refer to Sheet C4.0 for details. <br /> vi. Water utility design, permitting, and construction shall conform to NCDEQ and/or OAWS <br /> standards. <br /> Response: Comment noted. Standards will be met as part of the site plan and <br /> construction drawing review process. <br /> C. SEWER: <br /> i. Sewer service will likely be provided by City of Mebane. This statement shall in no way be <br /> interpreted as a final determination by Orange County or City of Mebane to serve the Project <br /> with public sewer. <br /> Response: Comment noted. Kimley-Horn is working to schedule meetings with the City <br /> of Mebane to discuss the improvements necessary for connection to existing water and <br /> sewer near the site. <br /> ii. City of Mebane staff has informally notified Orange County Engineering staff that the City of <br /> Mebane has available sewer capacity based on the evaluation of a DRAFT sanitary sewer <br /> capacity summary (average daily demand) of 76,421 gallons per day (GPD) as provided to <br /> Orange County by the applicant on September 1, 2020. However, the City of Mebane has not <br /> yet formally confirmed with Orange County Engineering staff an ability to serve the Project with <br /> public sewer. Only limited sewer demand data have been made available to Orange County <br /> Engineering staff to date. <br /> Response: Comment noted. Additional information on anticipated flows is now provided <br /> within the Narrative and the Rezoning Plan. <br /> iii. So as to prevent a potentially negative impact to available public sewer capacity within the <br /> regional sewer service area, Orange County Engineering staff recommends a reassessment of <br /> proposed sewer demands via the incorporation of low-flow water fixtures and/or lower-flow end <br /> users throughout the Project, where feasible. <br /> Response: The use of low flow water fixtures will be considered as part of the <br /> discussions with the City of Mebane to ensure that the available sewer capacity is taken <br /> into account when necessary infrastructure improvements are designed and <br /> constructed. <br /> iv. If updated sewer demands are available, applicant shall provide them to City of Mebane so that <br /> City of Mebane may further evaluate their available sewer capacity and their desire to serve the <br /> Project with public water. <br /> Response: Comment noted. Additional information on anticipated flows is now provided <br /> j within the Narrative and the Rezoning Plan. <br /> v. The existing terminal sewer manhole along Mt.
