WATER&SEWER AUTHORITY /
FLOW ACCEPTANCE REVIEW
Date: October 22,2015
Project: Mechums Trestle
To: Albemarle County Service Authority
The Rivanna Water&Sewer Authority (RWSA) has reviewed a written request from the ACSA to accept
up to 5,000 gallons average daily wastewater flow with a point of connection to the RWSA Crozet
Interceptor at manhole CZI-MH-63. The increased wastewater is proposed by the ACSA to serve
Mechums Trestle,a 100-seat restaurant. The restaurant is expected to be completed by the summer of
2016.
We have reviewed the average daily flow of the RWSA systems that would receive this flow as proposed,
and reviewed the appropriate design factors specified under the Virginia SCAT Regulations (9VAC 25-
790). On the basis of these reviews, under present average daily flow conditions, RWSA agrees to
accept the additional wastewater flow as specified above.
Please be advised that RWSA does not reserve capacity in its system for a specific project,and this letter
should not be interpreted in any way as a reservation or allocation of flow or the granting of regulatory
approval related to other agencies. Substantial changes in future average daily flow to the RWSA
systems, changes in regulations, or other future factors could result in changes in RWSA's capability to
accept additional flow. We strongly request that ACSA update RWSA on the status of this project on an
annual basis, and further require that a new request for flow acceptance be made for all or any portion
or phase of the above request for which sewer extension design has not been approved under a
Certificate to Construct by the appropriate regulatory authority and is under construction within twenty-
four months of the date of this letter.
An updated review for flow acceptance shall be requested if the project's scope, time frame or
connection point as initially specified changes. Please note that under no circumstances can a direct
connection be made into RWSA's interceptor system without the written approval and physical
inspection by the RWSA Engineering Department.
Respectfully yours,
A„,

Megan,
RWSA has reviewed the final site plan for Mechum's Trestle as prepared by Water Street Studio and dated 9/11/2015
and has the following comments:
General:
1. A flow capacity certification will be required prior to final site plan approval.
Sheet 4 of 9:
1. Notes added to this plan sheet regarding testing of the existing sewer force main need to be moved over into
