The area is bordered to the north by the Orange County Landfill which lies on the north and south24 <br /> side of Eubanks Road. The area defined as the "historic" Rogers Road neighborhood is abutted by <br /> recent and ongoing development of new homes by Habitat for Humanity. These new neighborhoods <br /> are served by public water and sewer utilities provided by Orange Water and Sewer Authority <br /> (OWASA). The existing water utility lines already reach out into the survey area, however not all <br /> residences are connected to public water. OWASA sewer mains route through the southeast portion <br /> of the neighborhood to access the Habitat for Humanity developments. Six of the properties located <br /> along Purefoy Drive may soon be able to access the newly constructed sewer line. Minor extensions <br /> of the sewer line in this area could serve at least 11 other properties. Homes in the majority of the <br /> survey area along Rogers Road do not have access to this sewer line due to topography. <br /> The terrain is gently sloping (5% or less) with broad ridges, minor drainageways, and intermittent <br /> streams. Soils on the upland areas are well drained and principally in the Georgeville-Herndon <br /> series with approximately 10% of the area consisting of the Appling series. These soils are generally <br /> considered moderately suitable for septic systems. <br /> Rogers/Eubanks Neighborhood Survey 2010 <br /> r <br /> li 1621 'll <br /> 7628 T-- — — <br /> 1708 <br /> I i]i6 <br /> J <br /> noo noa <br /> ]]ifi <br /> _ Laos <br /> 1 ]710 -u 1712 <br /> 772 I 7718 <br /> —21 31 <br /> � ]18 1"7851 �4y <br /> - r 1]0 1811 1819 <br /> r 8003.. .��. �1 0] <br /> / „ 9006 <br /> 500. 012 lll!!! �- L <br /> Streets 8009 ✓801•• 'aJ�� 801E <br /> Not_Surveyed — — �I 8023 8012 <br /> WW„„ <br /> ▪Surveyed ....„a \° nn <br /> ' am,8030 <br /> ▪CARRBORO f°° 11 <br /> CHAPEL HILL <br /> HILLSBOROUGH \ \ I I <br /> MEBANE \ p6 <br /> 0 0.05 0.1 Miles <br /> Survey Design <br /> Following the RENA request to the Health Director for a survey, a"task group” was formed that <br /> included representatives or visitors from; <br /> • Orange County Health Department <br /> • Orange County Housing and Community Development <br /> • RENA <br /> • Epidemiology Department at the Gillings School of Global Public Health-UNC <br /> • Environmental Science and Engineering Department at the Gillings School of Global <br /> Public Health <br /> Page 3 of 11 <br />
