body
INFORMATION CONTACT:
John Shutak, Engineering Division Director, 704-283-3651
ACTION REQUESTED:
Receive status update on wastewater treatment capacity for the Twelve Mile Creek, Crooked Creek, Olde Sycamore, Tallwood, and Grassy Branch facilities.
BACKGROUND:
Union County Water is closely monitoring the wastewater treatment capacities at our Water Reclamation Facilities. Permitting Capacity is evaluated using the Actual Plant Flows plus the Permitted/Obligated Flows (unconnected). Union County Water was asked to provide regular updates. Below information is up to date through October 2021.

Twelve Mile Creek
* Permitted Capacity (MGD) = 7.5
* Actual Average Daily Flow (MGD) = 5.855
* Actual + Permitted Obligated Flows (MGD) = 7.348
* Percent of Permitted Flow Used = 98.0%
* Actual Rainfall (in) = 1.1

Crooked Creek
* Permitted Capacity (MGD) = 1.9
* Actual Average Daily Flow (MGD) = 0.952
* Actual + Permitted Obligated Flows (MGD) = 1.512
* Percent of Permitted Flow Used = 79.6%
* Actual Rainfall (in) = 1.1

Olde Sycamore
* Permitted Capacity (MGD) = 0.15
* Actual Average Daily Flow (MGD) = 0.037
* Actual + Permitted Obligated Flows (MGD) = 0.037
* Percent of Permitted Flow Used = 24.7%
* Actual Rainfall (in) = 1.1

Tallwood
* Permitted Capacity (MGD) = 0.05
* Actual Average Daily Flow (MGD) = 0.029
* Actual + Permitted Obligated Flows (MGD) = 0.029
* Percent of Permitted Flow Used = 58.0%
* Actual Rainfall (in) = 2.0

Grassy Branch
* Permitted Capacity (MGD) = 0.05
* Actual Average Daily Flow (MGD) = 0.049
* Actual + Permitted Obligated Flows (MGD) = 0.050
* Percent of Permitted Flow Used = 100.2%
* Actual Rainfall (in) = 1.4

In addition to the wastewater treatment capacities, the following summarizes flow volumes associated with development projects that are in the planning and review process within the 12-mile Creek and Crooked Creek WRF service areas. The information shown is up to date th...
