Page 3 of 3 James Fickle <br />Other Comments: <br />I would like to serve on the OWASA board as water availability, use and quality are <br />paramount to the county's future. I suggest my technical background in agriculture will <br />allow me to quickly become knowledgeable on local issues and challenges. STAFF <br />COMMENTS: Originally applied 9/24/2010 for OWASA Board of Directors, Agricultural <br />Preservation Board and Durham Technical Community College Board of Directors. <br />UPDATED APPLICATION FOR OWASA 04/16/2011. UPDATED <br />APPLICATION FOR OWASA 04/22/2012. ADDRESS VERIFICATION: Steeplechase <br />Road is in Chapel Hill Township and Chapel Hill Jurisdiction. <br />Updated application with additional questions answered for OWASA 12/27/2013. <br />This application was current on:4/1/2017 Date Printed:12/28/2017 <br />Boards/Commissions appointments: <br />University and industry work in soils, crops, regulatory affairs (company representative with <br />EPA,OPP). Over the years, I have worked with irrigation so am conversant with water use in <br />agriculture. <br />What do you see as the responsibilities of this board, and what do you hope to <br />accomplish if appointed? <br />Provision for supply, delivery and stewardship of water resources for Orange County. I have no <br />specific items to accomplish, but do have an interest in water reuse as a means of minimizing <br />impact on available resources. <br />What is OWASA's role in growth/development issues? <br />I think OWASA works within the larger needs of county and its municipalities. Therein the <br />provision, delivery and stewardship of water resources is the specific perview of OWASA. <br />Where growth and development is under consideration of the various branches of county and <br />municipal government, OWASA would be active in helping to implement those items having to <br />do with water. <br />15
