Sincerely,
Franklin D. Ivey, Associate Superintendent"
That letter is dated December 3, 1987. Mr. Pope, would you like that made a part of the
original exhibits?
POPE: Yes, I was trying to determine what the last exhibit was, staff exhibit number was, do
you have that?
LUNDY: R was the last exhibit.
POPE: Would you mark that S?
POPE: I will admit that letter, then, from Mr. Ivey as the Exhibit S. Are there further
comments from the staff?
LUNDY: Further comments that I would make, Mr. Pope, is that I have discussed this with a
number of people with state concerning the increase in the amount of the effluent that would be
placed into the lake. We have found that there are computer models for approximately twelve
discharge locations on Lake Norman, and they do monitor each one of those locations for oxygen
content, but there is not a computer model for the entire lake as a whole that would show long range
effect of the lake. In inquiring from the gentlemen who is dealing with that, what it would take to
do it, he has told me that it would take several years and would cost a substantial amount of money
to do a study for the entire lake. At this point, I don't have any other information that is
pertinent to that question. I have been informed that there may be someone here from the state that
would testify to this situation. I don't know if they are here or not, Mr. Pope. That's all I have
in the way of additional information.
POPE: Are there any questions from any of the commissioners to the staff concerning any of the
data requested and the report?
Any questions of the staff by the proponents, John Crosland Company?
MASSEY: We have no questions.
POPE: Any questions of the staff by the opponents? Mr. Bryan, any other opponents present?
BRYAN: Does he have the maps with him?
LUNDY: Yes, I do.
BRYAN: We might need those when Mr. Parker from the state is here and will answer questions.
POPE: Mr. Lundy, do you have some way of mounting those maps?
LUNDY: I'll get some way.
BRYAN: I don't think we will need them all, just the one showing the lake, the development in
relationship to the lake.
POPE: While Mr. Lundy is locating some manner of mounting the exhibits, I will call on the
proponents now. Mr. Massey, does the proponent, John Crosland Company, wish to offer further
testimony or evidence, exhibits, or documents?
MASSEY: We have nothing to put on this time. We do reserve the right for rebuttal.
POPE: The staff report having been presented and the proponents indicating no desire to
present further testimony at this time, do the opponents wish to present any evidence or testimony
or exhibits to the commissioners.
BRYAN: Yes. I have a few things I would like to say.
MASSEY: Mr. Chairman, I did not object to Mr. Bryan's testimony at the last hearing, but this
is a zoning matter; and I am sure that he wants to talk, but he is some 25 miles away from this
property. I think the board has some, or should put some restrictions on whether anybody can come
and talk on a zoning matter. (Not clear)
POPE: Well, I think it is fairly clear under the North Carolina law that in order to -have
standing to challenge one has to be an adjoining property owner. We are taking testimony on a
question on whether we will rezone this property, and if so, whether we will grant a special use
permit, and if so, on what terms and conditions. And I will rule that he can testify as long as he
is not repetitive of what has already been offered. Go ahead.
BRYAN: Thank you, Mr. Chairman and Commissioners. The gentleman is with us from Mooresville
Clean Water Department, Mr. Parker. I don't know if you want to question him in the public hearing
or the special hearing. What is your pleasure?
POPE: We'll hear him now.
BRYAN: O.K. Before he testifies.
