. • -" <br />(919)560 -137 <br />Memorandum <br />August 12, 1991 <br />To: Orville W. Powell, City Manager <br />Paul Warren, Interim County Manager <br />From: A. Paul Norby, Planning Director <br />Terry Rolan, Water Resources Dir cto <br />Subject: Watershed Protection: Adopted Rules, Proposed Rules and Proposed Classifications <br />Recently, City and County elected officials requested additional information on the State's watershed rules <br />and classifications being implemented in response to House Bill 156. In general, almost everyone <br />involved with these rules and classifications concede that they are complicated and confusing. The <br />attached report is intended to shed some Iight on the subject and to highlight the implications for Durham <br />City and County. At the end of this report, the staff recommends several comments that the City Council <br />and Board of County Commissioners might consider making to the Environmental Management <br />Commission at upcoming public hearings or soon thereafter in writing. <br />I hope this information is useful. <br />cc Ken Wright, City Engineer <br />Keith Luck, Principal Planner <br />2'7 <br />
