44 <br /> May 11,2012 <br /> TO: Orange County Commissioners <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> Orange County Attorney <br /> FROM: Charles P. Gunter <br /> 4411 Highway 70 East, Durham, Orange County, NC <br /> SUBJECT: Gorilla Materials, Inc.—Permits for Expansion of Operations <br /> Tuesday afternoon, May 8th, I became aware that the subject company has purchased an <br /> additional eleven (11) acres of land adjacent to and north of their existing operation at 7012 <br /> Mt. Hermon Church Road. <br /> As a concerned citizen, representing many other concerned citizens in the Eno District of <br /> Orange County, I implore you to cease any and all additional permitting for any expansion of <br /> the operations of Gorilla Materials, Inc. until adequate studies are made regarding the <br /> environmental impact of the operations of this company. <br /> Detrimental effects of existing operations include, but are not limited to: <br /> • Excessive stormwater runoff into Stoney Creek/Eno River/Upper Neuse River <br /> • Increased non-point source pollution into our drinking water supply due to leaching of <br /> unknown materials stockpiled in open areas <br /> • Increased particulate pollution introduced into the air in the sensitive Hwy 70 and 1-85 <br /> junction (refer to EPA alerts) <br /> • Heavy truck traffic on Hwy 70 E, Mt. Hermon Church Road —destroying road surfaces <br /> and causing dangerous traffic problems <br /> • Extreme level of noise created by uncovered and non-noise abating rock grinders and <br /> tree shedders <br /> • Excessive noise from dump trucks slamming tailgates to dislodge materials <br /> • Excessive diesel engine noise caused by the use of heavy highway earth moving <br /> equipment in a residential area <br /> Attached is a letter sent to members of the Orange County Committee for the Environment, <br /> concerning some aspects of the problems currently caused by the operations of Gorilla <br /> Materials, Inc. That letter was sent before I learned of the planned expansion of operations. <br />
