interchange , thus having good access 0` 7 to the Interstate . Adjacent to the Interstate, the land drops dramatically in places , so access via a marginal access road within the 1-85 right-of-way seems impractical. Slopes along the U.S.70A frontage are gentle , and access to the site could be provided easily at two or more locations. The distance to the 1-85 interchange via U.S.70A and N.C.86 is approximately three-fourths of a mile. Access will also be available to I-40 as soon as that facility is built. Access will be available via an inter- change with I-85 approximately 2.5 miles to the west or via N.C. 86 To another interchange near Chapel Hill. The relationship of the Beard tract to major transportation routes is shown on Exhibit E. Utilities Public water lines belonging to (See Exhibit F) the Town of Hillsborough are available to serve the site. A 12-inch water line extends down U.S.70A across the full frontage of the property. Sewer service would also be provided by the Town of Hillsborough. However, service to the site is not presently available. Several options are present in terms of service. First, a gravity flow line could be installed which would follow the stream leaving the site. The line would continue northward toward the Eno River and the Town of Hillsborough sewage treatment plant. The line would, at some point near that facility, have to tie into an existing pump station or a new station be installed to pump the effluent to the plant. The second alternate would be to collect the effluent at the western property via a gravity line, then pump it down U.S.70-A and Brady Road to the sewage treatment plant . A consulting engineer has been asked to look at the entire area in terms of sewer service, since several PAGE 4
