City of Durham's Request for Resolution of Craig Benedict, Planning Director, Support from Orange County 919-245-2592 2. Cost Estimate and Durham Statement Christopher Sandt, Staff Engineer, of Cost Reimbursement to Orange County 919-245-2583 3. Timeline for Teer Quarry Initiatives 4. Executed Resolution of Support from the Town of Hillsborough 5. Draft Orange County Resolution of Support PURPOSE: To consider approval and signature by the Board Chair of a Resolution of Support from Orange County related to the City of Durham's (City's) proposed initiative to make the Teer Quarry Reservoir a new public water supply and reclassifying a segment of the Eno River within Durham County as Water Supply, in conformance with the State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program. The City has formally requested Orange County's support for this effort which would require the County to take the necessary steps to provide public notice and initiate the associated public hearing(s), Planning Board meeting(s) and Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) meeting(s) to amend land use restrictions imposed by water supply watershed protection rules for the affected areas within Orange County. BACKGROUND: The City of Durham owns and operates the Teer Quarry Reservoir (Quarry), an emergency water storage reservoir located along the Eno River in Durham County approximately 0.80 miles to the east of US-501 and approximately 15 miles downriver from the USGS Eno River at Hillsborough gauge (USGS Gauge #02085000). Attachment 1 is a written request by Mr. Donald F. Greeley (Director, City of Durham Department of Water Management) for Orange County to approve a Resolution of Support to make the Teer Quarry Reservoir a new public water supply and reclassifying a segment of the Eno River within Durham County as Water Supply, in conformance with the State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program. The City plans to convert the Quarry to a non-emergency source of water supply for the City once the Quarry has been appropriately classified for drinking water purposes and approved by 2 the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission (EMC). To convert the Quarry to a Water Supply, the City must construct a new raw water intake on the Eno River approximately 3/4 mile upstream of the City's existing Eno River emergency intake. Construction and use of the new raw water intake will require that all affected Orange County parcels located within the 3/4 mile upstream shift adhere to land use ordinances imposed by the State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program. Attachment 1 is an overall map showing the proposed location of the new raw water intake, as well as a display of the affected areas within Orange County that would require reclassification as a Water Supply Watershed. Specifically, the location of the proposed new raw water intake would affect approximately 850 property owners within Orange County (i.e. owners of parcels that would be located within the expanded Watershed Protection Overlay District). Approximately 700 additional property owners within Orange County would have to be notified due to Orange County's 1,000-ft notification requirement. Orange County's approval of a Resolution of Support would require Orange County to commit to the following items: A Public Information Meeting (PIM) would need to be held, requiring approximately 1,550 first class letters to be mailed out prior to the meeting. A Planning Board Meeting would also need to be held, requiring approximately 850 Certified Mail letters and approximately 700 first class letters to be mailed out prior to the meeting. Approximately 425 signs, at a minimum, would need to created and posted prior to the Planning Board Meeting. A legal ad would also need to be published for the Planning Board Meeting. A BOCC Public Hearing would also need to be held, requiring the same mailings, signage and legal ad postings as the required Planning Board Meeting. Attachment 2 provides a detailed/itemized list of Orange County public notice and meeting requirements associated with the City's proposed Teer Quarry Initiatives. The City has provided Orange County with a general timeline in Attachment 3 for the Teer Quarry initiatives (e.g. permitting, engineering/design, construction). The City hopes to have the new raw water intake and distribution lines constructed by the 3rd Quarter of 2025. The City has also requested a Resolution of Support for this initiative from the Town of Hillsborough (Town). The Town Board of Commissioners reviewed and approved the Town's Resolution of Support at its March 9, 2020 Regular meeting. Attachment 4 is a copy of the Town's executed Resolution of Support. Resolution of Support from Orange County: Orange County Staff has no objection to the City's intent to classify the Teer Quarry Reservoir as a Water Supply and construct a new raw water intake on the Eno River approximately 3/4 mile upstream of the City's existing Eno River emergency intake within Durham County. While Orange County's public notice and public meeting requirements for these initiatives are quite substantial, Orange County Staff is in support of the City's initiative to ensure reliable future water supply for their constituents/customers. Attachment 5 is a draft Orange County "Resolution of Support" for proposed Board approval, signature by the Board Chair, and distribution to the City. 3 Orange County understands that City's initiatives to classify the Quarry as a Water Supply and to construct a new intake on the Eno River approximately % mile upstream of the City's current water intake location will not be undertaken until the City obtains all necessary approvals from the NC Department of Environmental Quality Division of Water Resources (DWR) and the EMC. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The estimated financial impact to Orange County for the required public meetings, mailings and signage is estimated to range from $24,657.50 to $39,532.50. The actual cost will depend on whether Orange County will adhere to Orange County public notice requirements (i.e. the higher estimate), or the minimum public notice requirements under State las (i.e. the lower estimate). The City has committed in writing (Attachment 2) that it will reimburse Orange County for all costs related to the expansion of the water supply watershed protection zone (i.e. the Watershed Protection Overlay District) within Orange County, given a detailed and approved invoice. SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is applicable to this item: • GOAL: ESTABLISH SUSTAINABLE AND EQUITABLE LAND-USE AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures, incomes and educational levels with respect to the development and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, policies, and decisions. Fair treatment means that no group of people should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, governmental and commercial operations or policies. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The following Orange County Environmental Responsibility Goal impacts are applicable to this item: • RESULTANT IMPACT ON NATURAL RESOURCES AND AIR QUALITY Assess and where possible mitigate adverse impacts created to the natural resources of the site and adjoining area. Minimize production of greenhouse gases. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the attached Orange County "Resolution of Support" (Attachment 5) for signature by the Board Chair and subsequent distribution to the City. 4 WATER MANAGEMENT CITY OF DURHAM February 14, 2020 Mr. Craig Benedict Planning & Inspections Director Orange County 306-F Revere Rd. Hillsborough, NC 27278 RE: Eno River Water Supply Classification Dear Mr. Benedict: We would like your help in requesting that the Orange County Board of Commissioners pass a Resolution of Support for Reclassifying a Segment of the Eno River for Water Supply in Durham County, North Carolina. This reclassification would require that Orange County adopt land use ordinances meeting the requirements of the State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program for the portion of Orange County that would be included in the protected area of the water supply watershed if the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission (EMC) reclassifies the segment of the Eno River for a water supply as the City of Durham requests. Teer Quarry, owned by the City of Durham, is critical for meeting the City's emergency water supply needs. Using Teer Quarry as a water supply requires filling the quarry from a new water intake in the Eno River. The new intake would be % of a mile upstream of an existing Eno River emergency water intake. The segment of the Eno River with that existing emergency water intake is already classified as a water supply, with a watershed protection protected area extending into Orange County and a critical area within Durham County. Figure 1 on the next page shows Teer Quarry, the existing Eno River emergency water intake, the proposed new Eno River water intake, the existing watershed protection critical and protected areas, and the additional watershed protection protected area and critical areas that the new Eno River water supply classification would require. A result of this water supply classification would be to extend the existing protected area by an additional % of a mile into Orange County. The State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program (15A NCAC 02B .0620-.0624, attached) would limit the maximum allowable project densities and minimum lot sizes for development in the protected area to: 1. Low Density Single-Family Detached Residential Development — 2 dwelling units per acre or 20,000 square foot lot excluding roadway right-of-way or 24% built-upon; or 3 dwelling units per acre or 36% built-upon area without curb and gutter street system. 2. Low Density Non-Residential and All Other Residential Development — 24% built-upon area; or 36% built-upon area without curb and gutter street system. 3. High Density Development—24 to 70% built-upon area. These limitations would not apply to existing development, but would impact any new development or redevelopment that occurs once the EMC reclassifies the Eno River segment. The State's Water Supply Watershed Protection Program would also require vegetated setbacks along perennial water bodies and perennial streams with the following minimum widths: 1600 Mist Lake Dr.Durham, NC 27704 919.560.4381 DurhamNC.gov Follow Us @CityofDurhamNC 1 00 o 5 1.

Your own analysis would likely be more accurate. Once the City has obtained resolutions of support for the Eno River water supply classification from all of the affected jurisdictions (Town of Hillsborough, Orange County, Durham County, and City of Durham), we would submit an application for the Eno River water supply classification to the NC Department of Environmental Quality Division of Water Resources (DWR). This process will take at least 18 months according to the description from DWR (attached). The City of Durham has water distribution system interconnections with the Town of Hillsborough and with the 1600 Mist Lake Dr. Durham, NC 27704 I 919.560.4381 I DurhamNC.gov I Follow Us @©o© NC rhamNC 6 Orange Water and Sewer Authority, both of which provide potable water to a large portion of Orange County. The City also provides water to customers in a small part of Orange County.The City is at the center of an interconnected, regional water supply network that includes the Town of Hillsborough, the Orange Water and Sewer Authority, Chatham County, the City of Raleigh, and the Town of Cary. Improving the City of Durham's water supply reliability will improve water supply reliability for much of Orange County. Attached is a template for your use in drafting a Resolution of Support for Reclassifying a Segment of the Eno River for Water Supply in Durham County, North Carolina for adoption by the Orange County Board of Commissioners. Sydney Miller, Water Resources Manager, will contact you to discuss the details. You may reach Sydney t 919-560-4381, ext. 35201 or sydney•miller@durhamnc.gov. Sincerely, Donald F.

Project will directly impact 850 property owners (i.e. now within the Watershed Protection 10 Overlay District); 2. Approximately 700 property owners will have to be notified given the County's 1,000 ft. notification requirement. Cadence: my review of the UDO, as well as past practice, indicates to me: Public Information Meeting(NIM): a. County will hold a public information meeting (consistent with past projects); b. Will need to coordinate with Durham staff to attend the public information meeting; c. 1,550 first class letters will be sent (impacted property owners and within 1,000 ft.) with a total cost of$852.50 ($0.55 first class rate per letter); Format of meeting unknown at this time (i.e. on-line versus in person meeting) Estimated advertising costs: $852.50 Planning Board Meeting: a. 'Impacted property owners' have to be notified of the Planning Board meeting via certified mail (Section 2.8.7 (D))—850 property owners at $4.80 per letter: Total Cost: $4,080.00 b. 700 property owners within 1,000 ft. will get a first class mailed notice of Planning Board meeting (700 letters at$0.55 per letter): Total Cost: $385.00 c. Signs have to be placed on the impacted properties (staff conservatively figures there will need to be at a minimum of 425 signs—each property has to be posted. Staff can post a sign on 2 properties at once) advertising the Planning Board meeting. Total cost of signs will depend on the order, size of sign, etc. When we completed signs for atlas amendment removing the 'special flood hazard area overlay district' we paid approximately$35 per sign (including wire support brackets). Total anticipated cost: $14,875.00 d. Legal ad will have to be published for the Planning Board meeting. Price will be based on inclusion of a map and size. Unknown what format this will take. Estimated Planning Board meeting advertising costs: $ 19,340.00 BOCC—Public Hearing: a.
