Carolina North campus. <br />$ased upon this meeting it is understood that UNC is interested in using alternate energy <br />sources such as 1a11dfill gas to meet at least a portion of the energy demand at the <br />proposed facilities. It is anticipated that the earliest completion date for any building <br />construction given an aggressive implementation is late 2008. <br />I~or file purposes of this preliminary economic; keasibility analysis it was assumed that the <br />first phase of Carolina North building program would be completed in 2008 and that the <br />energy neecis of file complex rvould grow from approximately ~0% of the cogeneration <br />potential. from LFG recovery at both. the Nolth and South Eubanks Road MSWLI! sites to <br />100% of file total.
