Director <br />Division of WarcrQuulity (`// <br />March 16, 2006 <br />Mr. Paul K Thames, P.E, County Engineer <br />Orange County Government Services Center <br />Post Oflice Box 8181 <br />Hillsborough, North Carolina 27278 <br />Dear Mr. Link: <br />We've reviewed your letter of February 17, 2006 slid offer the following comments. <br />We have no objection to the middle school area portion of the project being broken out <br />of the STAG project. A letter to tlaat effect is needed for o«r files. In addition, we will need a <br />revised Engineering Report reflecting the scope of the remaining project(s) before they can be <br />approved. ;lf tlae review/approvall/construction sebedule of the remaining project i.s time <br />sensitive, it is su-ongly suggested that you and /or your consultant schedule a time to come in and <br />discuss the timeframes associated with the review and approval of STAG projects. Some <br />portions of the review remain the exclusive domain of EPA Region 4 and we have little or no <br />control over their schedules. <br />In concept, the reconfiguration o.f the STAG project should pose no problems for either <br />LPA nor us. `V1/e will continue to be the permitting agency for the middle school project, even if <br />it no longer remains a pan of the STAG process. I=ending e]igibility questions fo•rthe middle <br />school project will no longer be a concern; however, the capacity issues of the downstream <br />lines will have to be resolved. <br />I believe that Cecil Madden of our staff is working closely with you and your consultant <br />on various methods to address these concerns. We wi]] continue to work with you to find an <br />acceptable solution that will a]].ow us to issue a permit so that the County can proceed to <br />consu-uction. if you need additional information, please advise. <br />Sincerely, <br />/ ~~ <br />John R.131owe, P.E., Chief <br />Construction Grants & Loans Section <br />JRB/sd <br />Construction Grants and Loans Section , <br />1633 Mail Service Genter Raleigh NC 27699.1633 NO1~~l.C.c'1I0~111.c1 <br />Phone; 919-733.69001 FAX; 919-715.62291 Internet: www.nccgl.net <br />An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer - 50% Recycled/10°1° Post Consumer Paper ~atur~lCt~ <br />
