2 <br /> "Successor in Interest" agreement (Attachment 4). This form has to be signed by both Orange <br /> County and the City of Mebane, and then returned to the EPA Grant Administration Office in <br /> Atlanta for their review and signature. <br /> In addition, the EPA needs documentation of the ownership transfer of the infrastructure to the <br /> City of Mebane. The water and sewer infrastructure installed by the County as part of this <br /> project and the associated easements are the property of the County. This transfer of property <br /> needs to be approved by the BOCC. Staff has developed a utility infrastructure dedication form <br /> for this transfer (Attachment 2).
