Minutes - Regular Meeting <br /> Solid Waste Advisory Board <br /> June 5, 2008 <br /> Approved August 7, 2008 <br /> Sallach replies that is the objective . We want to get the criteria established that would <br /> allow us to proceed with the engineering evaluations over the summer break . If we <br /> can do that we can put it back on schedule . <br /> Sassaman states that some of the things you do not want to compress are the public <br /> input meetings . <br /> Pollock asks for an explanation of " critical area overlay district of water supply <br /> watershed " . <br /> Sallach states that that is the legal description of that. In the critical overlay, [this] area <br /> is defined to be within a thousand feet of water supply impoundment and within one <br /> mile of an intake or something along those lines . There is a State definition as far as <br /> defining a critical area in terms of water supply . Primarily it means a water supply <br /> within that settlement. <br /> Pollock states that it could be irrespective in case of the mile criterion of whether it' s in <br /> the fall line or does it have to satisfy both criteria . <br /> Sallach states that the critical overlay area is within the fall line . The protected <br /> watershed overlay is the fall line . <br /> criteria, it' s excluding anything that is 3 miles <br /> Grunwald asks, in the exclusionary <br /> from all those above, what are you excluding from the exclusions . Are you including <br /> anything along NC 86 in parenthesis ? <br /> Sallach states that NC 86 is a boundary . That boundary stops north of Hillsborough . <br /> Pollock states that what it really says is that north of Hillsborough along NC 86 is out <br /> regardless of how close it is to NC 86 . <br /> Bowerman asks if the 12 miles is radius or diameter <br /> Sallach replies it is 12 road miles . <br /> Bowerman asks do you think there are ten of these [sites] . <br /> Sallach states that we have not looked . There are a couple of other criteria the Board <br /> has designated that, if there are too many sites, then those criteria would be applied . <br /> The criteria that would be applied if there were too many sites would be to exclude <br /> protected watershed areas . If there were fifty sites, that would be an unmanageable <br /> number . We would have to screen them further . <br /> 2 <br />
