88 <br /> Proposed Utilities <br /> The potable water supply & treatment will be by on-site private wells under NCDENR <br /> permit NC0368470 for the continued operation of a 23 gallon per minute (16,500 gpd) <br /> well, a 3,000 gallon hydro-pneumatic storage tank, a hypochlorite feed system, a sodium <br /> hydroxide feed system coupled with underground plumbing delivery system as noted in <br /> the SUP Narrative. Under this permit, NCDENR will review and monitor the ongoing <br /> adequacy of the on-site potable water supply system. <br /> Wastewater treatment will be in accordance with the existing on-site wastewater <br /> collection system as defined under NCDENR Permit WQ0004508 for the continued <br /> operation of a 3,750 gpd wastewater collection, treatment and 77,850 sf surface irrigation <br /> on-site disposal area. This permit includes a series of on-site septic tanks coupled with an <br /> underground plumbing delivery system to the on-site surface irrigation disposal area thru <br /> a series of treatment processes. Under this permit, NCDENR will review and monitor the <br /> ongoing adequacy of the on-site potable wastewater treatment system. <br /> All other utilities are public and include Electric, Telephone and Natural Gas. <br /> Proposed Access & Access Improvements <br /> The Emerson Waldorf School will continue to be served by the two existing publicly <br /> maintained paved roads. Millhouse Road (SR 1725), which runs east-west across the <br /> middle of the subject property and New Jericho Road (SR 1899) which runs north up the <br /> middle of the overall 55.27 acre site (New Jericho Road feeds into Millhouse Road and <br /> thus Millhouse Road is considered the primary Road servicing the site). These two public <br /> roads essentially dissect the 55.27 acre site with essentially all existing structures located <br /> in the northwest quadrant of the overall site. Galilean Trail is a private paved travelway <br /> and runs along the northern most boundary of the site (See Masterplan attached). <br /> Internal access will be provided by a series of well planned private travelways and on-site <br /> parking areas (See SUP Masterplan attached). <br /> Visibility <br /> The applicant is proposing a comprehensive open space management plan under the <br /> proposed SUP that involves preservation of a significant amount of existing woodlands, <br /> and a significant amount of existing vegetation will be retained as a buffer on all sides of <br /> the subject 55.27 acre site, which will visually benefit the surrounding properties, <br /> including front, side and rear setbacks. Location, type, size and direction of exterior <br /> lighting shall not glare or direct illumination that interferes with adjacent properties or the <br /> safety of public rights-of-way, per the proposed SUP. <br /> -9- <br />
