15 <br />M M I ff V <br />January 22, 1992 <br />Dr. George T. Everett, Director <br />N.C. Division of Environmental Management <br />P.O. Box 27687 <br />Raleigh, North Carolina 27611 --7687 <br />Re: NPDES Permit Applications <br />Dear Dr. Everett: <br />Recently, Orange County received a request for comment on <br />pending NPDES permit applications for M.M. Fowler, Inc. (Permit No. <br />NC 0080845) and Martin - Marietta Aggregates (Permit No. NC 0077046). <br />The deadline for submission of comments to your agency is January <br />23, 1992. <br />Given the limited amount of time available, adequate staff <br />review could not be undertaken and a recommended response prepared <br />for the Board of Commissioners' consideration. In addition, the <br />location of the Martin - Marietta facility in University Lake <br />Watershed and the Orange County- Chapel Hill - Carrboro Joint Planning <br />Area suggests that comment be obtained from the Towns and OWASA. <br />Furthermore, the location of Hurley's I -85 Gulf Service in the Eno <br />River Watershed and the Town of Hillsborough zoning jurisdiction <br />suggests that the Town may wish to comment on the proposal as well. <br />NCDEM is authorized to conduct public hearings on such <br />applications, and a public hearing may be the best format for the <br />presentation of comments by concerned parties. <br />At the January 22, 1992 meeting of Board of Commissioners, I <br />was authorized to request that Orange County be given additional <br />time to review the applications. The Board of Commissioners further <br />requests that no action be taken by your agency on these requests <br />until a public hearing is conducted and local governments, utility <br />providers, and concerned citizens are provided with an opportunity <br />to comment on the proposals. <br />Should you have questions concerning this request, please feel <br />free to contact Paul Thames, the County Engineer, at 919/732 -8181, <br />Extension 2303, or Marvin Collins, the Planning Director, at <br />Extension 2592. <br />Sincerely, <br />Moses Carey, Jr., Chair <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners <br />
