A. Alley: "We have made preliminary studies of the proposed extensions to the water distribution and sewage collection systems recently installed by the County to serve the industrial park east of Mebane and herewith present our findings. The unit prices used in the following cost estimates are taken from the County's contract with Dixie Plumbing Company where such prices were applicable. Where units of work are not covered in the aforementioned contract, we have used unit prices that we feel are reasonable and in line with the contract prices. We have identified the items where these prices have been used with an asterisk. The first study covered the installation of water and sewer mains to serve the area in the vicinity of Melville Furniture Company's proposed plant on South Center Street. It is proposed here that the water and sewer mains be installed from the ends of the existing mains in the Access Road near the southeast corner of the Piedmont Steel & Tube Co. property, directly north to Center Street. As these lines would not be installed in a public road or street, it will be necessary to acquire a right-of-way easement. This easement should be at least 25 feet wide. With the two pipelines at least 5 feet apart, this width easement will provide 10 feet from the center of each pipe to the outer boundary of the easement. A 30 foot wide easement is more desirable as this width would provide more working room and it would also allow the installation of the two pipes 10 feet apart.

A 12" water main is now in place in the Mattress Factory Road. It would be necessary to tap this line and install it in S.R. 7"1301 as far as it is determined desirable to do so. We recommend that, if this installation is made, the line be run approximately 800 feet. ^!The sanitary sewer main would have to be installed all the way from the waste lift station. S:R. =1301 has a rather deep sag approximately 1,000 feet from Iiattress Factory Road and we recommend that, if sanitary sewer is ever installed in this road, it be installed deep enough to go through this sag and provide sewer service to the land beyond it. In order to do this it becomes necessary for the sewer main to be about 21 -feet deep at the IIatthess Factory Road - S.R. ;`1301 intersection. This makes the sewer main installation rather costly, but still much to be preferred over the construction of a second lift station.

To provide water and sewer service to the Melville Furniture Company's proposed plant on South Center Street: (a) With the water and sewer lines being installed east of Piedmont Steel L Tube Co. $48,100.00 OR (b) With the sewer line being installed east of Piedmont Steel & Tube Co. and the water line being installed in South Center Street $69,200.00 2. To provide water and sewer service to an industrial site south of S.R. ;1301 and taest of Mattress Factory Road $44,300.00 I will be glad to meet with you and the Board of Commissioners at their convenience to go over these projects and to answer any questions they might have. One brief note of oaution about the unit price on the 12" water main. You will recall that Iir. Latham, of Dixie Construction Company, told me that he would be glad to have this :,cork added to his contract, but he would expect to be reimbursed for any increase in the pipe price. Every effort will be made by us to 1[eep the pine manufacturer from increasing the price. We believe that we can insist on them not.raising the price, especially if the water line is installed east of Piedmont Steel & Tube Co., as this was part of the original project." Discussion ensued relative to the proposed installation for the industrial park and matters relative to the proposed expansion of the Orange Alamance Water - Systems, Inc. -?
