1 <br />OWASA Comments <br />Public Hearing on NC 54 Proposal <br />January 22, 1991 <br />Paget <br />WE ALSO WANT TO BE SURE THAT THE STATE IS AWARE OF - AND WILL <br />FULLY CONSIDER - THE PRESENCE OF OWASA'S MAJOR 'CAPITAL ASSETS <br />WITHIN AND ADJACENT TO THE PROPOSED RIGHT OF WAY. <br />WE HAVE RECENTLY COMPLETED INSTALLING A NEW $4 MILLION DOLLAR RAW <br />WATER MAIN ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF NC 54 BETWEEN CANE CREEK AND <br />CA'RRBORO. IF I UNDERSTAND THE PROPOSAL CORRECTLY, THIS 30 -INCH <br />WATER LINE IS LOCATED IN WHAT WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME THE 46 -FOOT <br />MEDIAN BETWEEN THE EAST- AND WEST -BOUND TRAFFIC LANES; UNLESS, OF <br />COURSE, DOT PLANS TO RELOCATE THE LINE. <br />I TRUST THAT THE STATE IS ALSO AWARE OF OWASA'S ACCESS ROADS TO <br />THE CANE CREEK RESERVOIR AND THE STONE QUARRY RESERVOIR - BOTH OF <br />WHICH ARE IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE NORTHERN RIGHT OF WAY ALONG <br />NC 54. BOTH ENTRIES WILL HAVE TO BE RELOCATED IF THE WIDENING <br />PROJECT IS CARRIED OUT. <br />I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO 'BRING THESE ISSUES TO YOUR <br />ATTENTION, AND ENCOURAGE DOT STAFF TO CONTACT OWASA STAFF AS SOON <br />AS POSSIBLE TO DISCUSS FURTHER DETAILS. <br />THANK YOU VERY MUCH. <br />
