DG�pf�4 public roads and by a community low pressure system for sewage disposal. The applicant is now requesting approval of an amendment to Phase Two which involves relocating one lot and adding additional area for nitrification field. Lot 45 will be relocated from its current position south of lot 44 about 500 feet southwest to the west side of lot 46. Orange County currently owns the portion of the stub out at Twin Pines Lane from the cul -de -sac to the western corner of lot 46. This ownership is on behalf of the public and without maintenance responsibility. The applicant will dedicate an additional 150 feet of right -of -way to the public to extend the stub out of Twin Pines Lane. Rather than rebuild the cul -de -sac 140 feet to the west to provide access for one lot, the applicant has requested that the County allow lot 45 to have a driveway within the stub out (public right -of -way) to access the existing cul -de -sac on Twin Pines Lane. Again, the County has no maintenance responsibility for the stub out. In the event the adjacent property to the west is developed, the stub out would be constructed to NCDOT standards by the developer. The area vacated by lot 45 will be added to the existing Phase Two nitrification field at the northwest corner of Twin Pines Lane and Taproot Lane. An additional six acres to the west will also be designated for nitrification field and buffers. This area will be owned and maintained by the utility company which operates the community sewage disposal system. The.-need for additional sewage treatment area is the result of two factors: 1. The nitrification fields are all wooded. This makes it difficult to efficiently use the entire field for sewage treatment, since lines must be installed to go around large trees. 2. The NC Department of Health, Environment and Natural Resources adopted new buffer requirements around low pressure nitrification fields, resulting in a
