We are adding to the aerial photographs supplied to you <br /> that stopped at the Alamance County line. The aerial <br /> photograph requirement in this case is disproportionate <br /> with the information imparted to the viewer and the area is not <br /> in your jurisdiction but we are supplying it anynay- <br /> � <br /> 2. We are adding the isosonic contours below NEpsu although these <br /> -- noise levels are so small as to be non-existant' The State and <br /> Federal government doesn't consider these to be important and <br /> you had defined that noise above Nepso wvnimpurtant^ There <br /> is none of this noise generated by this facility so we are <br /> adhering to the letter of the law as defined by you. <br /> 3. The number of planes to be housed here will be 276 units as <br /> shown on the drawings. These may all be in T-hangars as <br /> ` shown or be in tie down areas shown at the option of the <br /> ' <br /> developer: This figure is an estimate. Traosientairplane <br /> traffic cannot be estimated accurately and will not appreci- <br /> ably add to traffic for this facility. This traffic is taken into <br /> account for the traffic calculations included herein. <br /> Z . All runway/airport lighting will adhere to FAA standards and <br /> Orange County zoning requirements. <br /> s' Screening or buffer shown shall be provided by existing growth <br /> or distance in excess of 500 feet from strvctures, or in the case <br /> of less than 500 feet screening shall 13e 6 foot high above grade <br /> within three years of planting, or solid fencing, or berm. <br /> 6. We will have control of all required FAA zones and safety -' <br /> areas. Since Orange County zoning Ordinance does not define these <br /> zones it is assumed that the FAA requirements will be sufficient. <br /> This makes logical sense for safety and practical reasons. <br /> members of the american instituta of architects <br /> , <br /> ' • <br />
