A copy of any motion to intervene must also be served upon each representative of the Applicant specified in the particular application.

The existing water intake structure would be expanded by connecting a water line to the existing water intake structure and the existing pumping plant. Approximately 125 feet of water line would be within the project boundary. Additionally, new screens with screen openings that do not exceed 0.25 inch would be installed on the existing intake structure. Intake velocities at the intake structure would not exceed 0.5 feet per second. Under the agreement, the expanded facility would have a gross maximum annual average rate of 18 million gallons per day (MGD), a 6 MGD increase from the current approved withdrawal rate. The water intake and pump facility is located in Iredell County, North Carolina.                          ( print page 33426)
