These categories are described below. Resource Protection Areas designated within Transition Areas of the Joint Planning Area Land Use Plan include floodplains, wetlands along drainage tributaries, and steep slope areas (15% or greater). The areas form the basis for a parks and open space system (see Strategy Maps) which provides the framework within which other land uses are situated. Public - Private Open Space Areas in the Transition Areas include UNC lands (excluding Horace Williams Airport and adjacent tracts), the 100 -foot buffer along I -40, and a tract connecting the two landfill sites. These sites provide open space in the midst of areas planned for urban expansion. New Hone Creek Corridor Open Space Areas include some of the Resource Protection Areas and a portion of the Public/Private Open Space Areas which were designated as significant and worthy of protection according to the New Hope Corridor Open Space Master Plan completed in April of 1991. (See Master Plan Map following Strategy Maps). The areas are part of a system of open space in Durham and Orange Counties along New Hope Creek and its tributaries between Eno River, State Park and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land north of Jordan Lake. This category is made up of critical environmental areas such as stream beds, floodplains, steep slopes, and larger tracts of historic, educational, or recreational value. 59 Joint Planning Land Use Plan 21 Errs 1. .
