Eve ,rel�'Qe Billingsley Orange Water qnO Sewer Authority Jones Ferry PlOad Chapel Uill, N.C. 2731L Dear Sir: On Thursday, June 28, 1979 1 met with Mr. Wpyne M-anden (your engineer), Mr. Lester Pnd Mr Crlxnni�0!1 (developers of Timberlyne Stib-division) end. Hr. Bnb Ppge, Attorney for the purpose of discussing early connection to the yet unfinished sewer;ge system serving the Timberlyne SlYdivision. The proposal :ins to connect as many as four houses to the phtion of the collection system already installed but not yet connected to the GWASA system. This situation was to e7Wt no longer than August 1, 1979. The proposal included an agreement to provide a contract with a firm that would pump and haul the untreated sewage from the collection system to the OWASA treatment plpnt Assurance was given by the developers and OWASA representatives that Pdequpte inspection& would be made to avoid vnY overflOW Or discharge of the system, I unders .?.na from Hx Stan Taylor of NECD that OWASA holds the permit for this system and therefore, =16 be responsible for any health hazards occurring from this 4ituation . Since this depRrtment has had past (unpleasant) experience with this kind of P setup I feel that we mist stronSly object to it. First of all we are de-ling with large homes with intensive water use that will tend to fill the system r-pidly. There may also be problems with proper pumping and disposal of the sewage. If rains infiltrate the system then the syste-M (including the sewage) may overflow. There could also be unforseen delays in the construction of the connector Line that would result in a longer term situation making this agreement invalid. Although our position At this point is not reguletory, if any problems should occur creating, in our opinion, P, health hazard then we u7ul6 certainly seek injunctive action which could result in serious liabilities to homeowners. Our position on the merit of allowing this kind of situation to occur certainly does not mean that we are not willing to assist in MMY Possible in preventing the occurrence of P health hazard. Our position, ns usual, from a pablic health standpoint is that of prevention rather then cure,. Sincerely yours, Carlton A.
