Box 8181 <br /> Hillsborough,NC 27278 <br /> RE: Buc-ee's Efland Station Proposed development <br /> Dear Orange County Board of County Commissioners: <br /> The purpose of this letter is to express our concern about potential environmental issues <br /> with the proposed Buc-ee's development in Efland. The large scale of the project, the <br /> quantity of fuel storage tanks required to service 120 gas pumps and also the potential for <br /> fuel spills raises concerns for this sensitive area close to Seven Mile Creek and the Eno <br /> River. The Orange Soil and Water Conservation District Board urges the county to look <br /> closely at how this development might impact the water quality and environment in <br /> Orange County. <br /> The Board greatly appreciates your consideration of this request. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> .Caren J. -"McAdams <br /> Karen J. McAdams, Chairman <br /> Orange Soil and Water Conservation Board of Supervisors <br />
