Box 8181 <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />Dear Mr. Kirk: <br />The NC Division of Parks and Recreation has been working with the Eno River Association on <br />the review of the Pleasant Green Woods — Phase 3 development plan. The area identified to be <br />dedicated to the Eno River Association provides water quality protection to the stream flowing <br />into the state park and the Eno River. <br />The State of North Carolina is willing to accept the property with the bold outline for Eno River <br />State Park. This property is within the acquisition plan for Eno River State Park for the <br />protection of the natural resources on the property and water quality in the tributary to the Eno <br />River. I have copied the State Property Office on this letter so they are aware this property will <br />be coming to the state. <br />It is my understanding that there will be walking trails within the subdivision property. Due to <br />the nature of the terrain near the tributary stream and the number of easements within the <br />property designated for the park, it does not appear that construction of a trail from the <br />subdivision into the park property would be wise or feasible. <br />Thank you again for your support of Eno River State Park. We look forward to working with <br />Orange County for many years to come. <br />Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions <br />8694. <br />Sincerely, <br />Susan Regier, Headd� <br />Land Protection Program <br />cc: Kelly Mitchell, State Property Office <br />Dave Cook, Eno River State Park <br />Robin Jacobs, Eno River Association <br />I can be reached at 919 -715- <br />One <br />1615 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699 -1615 NorthCarolina <br />Phone: 919 - 733 -4181 - FAX: 919- 715 -3085 - Internet: www.nesparks.net �� �cu�,R //� <br />An Equal Opportunity 0 Affirmative Action Employer - 50 % Recycled - 10 % Post Consumer Paper b [` <br />17 <br />
