TCEQ Chap 217 Summary Transmittal Letter
June 22, 2009
Design and construction of these improvements are in accordance with the Bryan/College
Station Unified Water & Sewer Specifications, Design Guidelines Manual, and Chapter
217 of the TCEQ Rules & Regulations. This sanitary sewer improvement project will be
constructed with the City of College Station performing a technical review.
The plans and specifications which describe the project identified in this letter are in
substantial compliance with all the requirements of Chapter 217.
8. Variances:
Several segments of sanitary sewer line installed for this phase of construction, do not
meet the minimum flow velocity of 2.0 ft/s at peak flow conditions. The design of this
line complies with minimum size, type and slope (1.00% slope), however, the low
number of dwelling units discharging to this line prevents peak flows from reaching a
flow velocity of 2.0 ft/s;
9. Project Scope:
The above referenced project will install the following sanitary sewer improvements
within the CCN of the City of College Station (CoCS):
•!• Approximately 916 linear feet of gravity sewer:
o 6" PVC (SDR 26, D3034);
•!• Applicable manholes, cleanouts, and service leads;
If you have any questions regarding this project, please contact Mr. Rabon A. Metcalf, P.E.
(Off/Fax: 979.690.0329 or rabon@rmengineer.com).

TCEQ Exception Letter for Utility Improvements
RME No. 202-0316
Mr. David Loflin:
The above referenced project will install the following improvements within the distribution
system of the Wellborn S.U.D.:
•!• Approximately 1,339 linear feet of 6", and 8" PVC (C-909, Class 200) water line;
•!• Applicable fire hydrants, services, valves & fittings.
Design and construction of these improvements will be in accordance with the latest
Bryan/College Station Unified Water & Sewer Design Guideline Manual, Standard Details, and
Specifications and Chapter 290 of the TCEQ Rules & Regulations. This quantity of water line is
less than 10% of the total length of water line within the City's current distribution system.
Therefore, an exception for plan review is being requested for this project and its water system
improvements.
Please call should you have any questions or require assistance.

* If no Pl/VS Number exists, the owner must submit a business plan, if required, in accordance with §290.39(f) and (g).
** If a required CCN number does not exist, an acceptable application to obtain a CCN number must be made before a project submittal can be
technically reviewed. In addition, if a submittal is for a project located outside the CCN area, a CCN amendment application must be submitted before a
project may be reviewed for construction approval. Please refer to 30 TAC Chapter 291 for additional information regarding CCNs.
If this is a new (proposed) system, you must attach the following with this submittal: NOT APPLICABLE
0 Attach a list of all water utilities within % mile of the proposed service area boundaries
D Copies of formal applications for service from each of the following
0 any municipality if the system is within its ET J;
0 any district or other political subdivision whose corporate boundaries are within % mile of the proposed
service area boundaries
0 any other water service provider whose certificated service area boundary is within % mile of the proposed
service area boundaries
0 Documentation that all application requirements including payment of fees were complied with.
0 Copies of written responses from each of the entities listed above.
0 Business plan, if required by 30 TAC 290.39(f) & (g). The business plan financial requirements for non-community

account. Alternatively, if the project is being constructed with loan funds, then a loan commitment letter from the
lender specific to that project will suffice.
