Water
Public water is available for this development (via Harnett County)
Comments: The water lines that serve this subdivision were permitted by NCDENR-PWSS under
Serial # 04-00704. The utility contractor has completed the construction of the water main in
accordance
with the approved plans. Harnett County Department of Public Utilities (HCDPU) has inspected and
tested
the six (6") inch and two (2") inch water lines along Ben Court that were installed to serve the Ben
Woods
Subdivision. These water lines should be able to adequately serve this project.
The PE has submitted the As-Built Record Drawings (paper, mylar & digital formats), the PE Certification

have been submitted to HCDPU prior to the final plat being stamped by the Development Review Board
(DRB) in accordance with the established Approval Process for New Water Line Extensions as described
on
the Harnett County website www.harnett.org under the Public utilities page.
However, HCDPU must complete the final "walk-through" inspection of the water line and associated
services. The Utility Contractor should contact HCDPU to schedule the final inspection. Meters cannot be
provided to this subdivision until the final approval is issued from NCDENR PWSS.
