Piedmont Electric Membership Corporation Te %ommunicaiions Facilities <br />Page 2 <br />Condusions <br />Section 8.8.17a.2 in the Zoning Ordinance, Standards of Evaluation, speaks to the protection of <br />historic properties and scenic views in provision j), "The tower and antenna will not result in a <br />significant adverse impact on the view of or from any historic site, scenic road, or major view <br />corridor." The attached map identifies some of the natural and cultural resources that are <br />known to exist in the nearby vicinity of these proposed sites. The final placement of the <br />telecommunications facility, in terms of topography and screening, will determine the visual <br />impact of the tower on its surrounding community. Based on our initial review of one and one- <br />half mile radius, however, it does not appear that the proposed new tower for the Piedmont <br />Electric Membership Corporation property would negatively impact the natural resources of the <br />adjacent, protected lands, nor would it impact any of the known cultural resources. <br />If you have questions or would like to discuss further please contact this office at (919) 245- <br />2590. <br />cc: David Stancil <br />Environment and Resource Conservation <br />PO Box 8181 1306 -A Revere Road <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />(919) 245 -2590 <br />67 <br />
