22 <br /> wildlife enhancement are employed. Such woodlands may consist of hardwood, <br /> pine, and/or mixed pine-hardwood forests identified as part of <br /> 0 LANDSAT satellite data collected and analyzed under the Albemarle-Pamlico <br /> Estuarine Study; <br /> 0 A site analysis conducted by a registered engineer, land surveyor, landscape <br /> architect, architect or land planner using aerial photographs and/or satellite <br /> imagery; <br /> 0 A required Environmental Assessment or Environmental Impact Statement; <br /> and/or <br /> 0 An independent site study conducted by a trained botanist and/or forester. <br /> • Farmland, especially prime agricultural land as identified by the U.S.D.A. Soil <br /> Conservation Service in Important Farmlands: Orange County, N,C. and which is <br /> in active use for the production of crops and/or raising of livestock. Farmland also <br /> includes space on individual lots used for gardens, ponds, horse paddocks and <br /> barns, and similar uses. <br /> • Slopes of 15% to 25% which require special site planning due to their erosion <br /> potential, limitations for septic tank nitrification fields, and terrain or elevation <br /> changes. Such areas may be suitable for building but higher site preparation and <br /> construction costs are to be expected. <br /> • Other historic and/or archaeological sites identified from the same sources as for <br /> Primary Conservation Area sites. <br /> • Public and/or private recreation areas and facilities, including: <br /> 0 "Active recreation areas" such as public recreation areas, including district and <br /> community parks as identified in the Master Recreation and Parks Plan. and <br /> private recreation facilities, including golf courses, playing fields, playgrounds, <br /> swimming pools, and courts for tennis, basketball, volleyball, and similar <br /> sports. Because they represent uses in which natural lands are cleared, graded, <br /> and managed for intensive activities, only half (50%) of the land in this <br /> category may be credited toward meeting the minimum open space <br /> requirement. <br /> 0 "Passive recreation areas" such as pedestrian, bicycle, and equestrian trails, <br /> picnic areas, community commons or greens, and similar kinds of areas, <br /> whether public or private. Land in this category receives full credit toward <br /> meeting the minimum open space requirement. <br /> • Scenic views, especially of natural and cultural features from designated scenic <br /> road corridors, including "views from the road" as well as views outward from <br /> potential home sites. Landscape buffers which screen the view of development and <br /> preserve the character of rural public roads are also included in this category. <br />
