OWASA Board of Directors has requested me to send the attached discussion paper to all <br />local government participants in the October 1, 1998 "Jordan Lake as a Regional Resource" <br />meeting. <br />We believe that further collaboration between OWASA and Chatham County offers resource <br />management, environmental, and economic benefits that will not be realized if future Jordan <br />Lake water supply decisions are based only on the needs of individual users. <br />However, we request that you offer clear and concise policy guidance to OWASA so that we <br />may determine as soon as possible whether to proceed with, or defer, any further consideration <br />of joint efforts with Chatham County in this matter. <br />We look forward to your response and further discussion when we reconvene in March 1999 as <br />agreed at our joint meeting of October 1, 1998. <br />400 Jones Ferry Road Equal Opportunity Employer Voice (919) 968-4421 <br />PO Box 366 Printed on Recycled Paper FAX (919) 968-4464 <br />Carrboro, NC 27510-0366 www. otrasa. or{r <br />
