Hydrant Flow Test information may be obtained by contacting Dean Carter in the PWC Water Resources Engineering Department at (910) 223-4746 or .
Please attach the hydrant flow test report to this exhibit. Hydrant flow test information obtained from PWC is for reference only, and is only valid for a period of one (1) year from the date of the test. PWC does not guarantee the quality, quantity or pressure of its water supply. It is hereby made a portion of the terms on which PWC furnished water to consumers that PWC shall in no case be liable to any consumer for any defect in quality, quantity or pressure.

· Was the residual fire hydrant for the flow test the same hydrant that has been approved by the Fire Marshal to provide fire flow protection for the project? ☐ Yes ☐ No
o If No, provide calculations or summary of model results
o If Yes, does the actual flow rate during the fire flow test exceed the minimum required fire flow per NC Appendix B? ☐ Yes ☐ No
§ If No, provide calculations or summary of model results
§ If Yes, no additional calculations or model results are required
