NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board is considering closing said road to public use, and that a public. hearing on this question will be held on the 7th day of May, 1990 at 7:30 p.m. in the General Assembly Room of the County Courthouse, 24 North Third Street, Wilmington, North Carolina, at which time the Board will hear all interested citizens and make a final determination as to whether the unopened road shall be closed. The foregoing resolution was adopted by the New Hanover County Board of on the 26th day of March, 1990. ~cfR#L- Fred Retchin, Chairman STAFF RECOMMENDATION: SC-49, 5/90 Close a Portion of Plymouth Drive The subject road, encompassing a 300 foot portion of Plymouth Drive, is located between Lord Tennyson Road to the north and North Crestwood Road to the south in Crestwood/Kings Grant Subdivision. This portion of Plymouth Drive is an unimproved 60 foot right-of-way. As displayed on the attached map, Plymouth Drive is the only connecting link between Kings Grant and Crestwood subdivisions. The closest viable vehicular access between these two (2) developments is Darwin Drive approximately half a mile to the east in Wildflower Subdivision. Separate road entrances for Kings Grant and Crestwood exist from North College Road (Hwy. 132) 800 feet west of the proposed closing. The Planning Staff recommends that. Plymouth Drive remain open. In addition to access, future utilities such as sewer and drainage may be able to utilize the existing right-of-way. County Engineering has already expressed interest in retaining at lea.st 30 feet for sewer purposes 0 Future needs for vehicles / pedestrians, and service access outweigh the benefits of closing the road. For these reasons, the Board may not want to consider the closure petition.

BLANCHARD, P.E, County Engineer February 27, 1990 ENGINEERING AND FACILITIES DEPARTMENT 414 CHESTNUT STREET WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA 284D1 TELEPHONE (919) 341-7139 Mr. William S. Riddick, Jr., P.E. McKim & Creed Engineers, P.A. 243 North' Front Street Wilmington, NC 28401 RE: Alum Sludge Disposal City of Wilmington Water Treatment Plant Dear Mr. Riddick: This letter February 9, disposal of Landfill. is being prepared in response to your letter of 1990, and our meeting of February 7, 1990 regarding the above referenced sludge at the New Hanover County . Based on the information which you have provided, I would like to offer the following comments: 1. The Solid Waste Management Division of the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources has authorization through G.S. 130A-294 to regulate and evaluate waste that may pose a threat to the environment or to public health and subsequently prohibit disposal of these waste at a sanitary landfill. A waste determination procedure has been developed to determine if a waste is sui table for sanitary landfill disposal. The department has determined through historical analytical data that sludges from water treatment plants pose no. environmental or health problems and exempts water treatment plant sludges from the waste determination procedure. Even so, I believe it is in the best interest of the City and County to have analytical data provided on the sludge at the concentrations of which it would be landfilled. . 2. The waste must not contain free liquids. This determination is made by performing the Paint Filter Liquids Test SW-846 Method 9095 on a representative sample of the waste. From our conversations we have concluded that the sludge will most likely have to be dried to a 40% solids to achieve a "Pass" on this test. " . . . Mr. RiddicJ:c Page Number Two February 27/ 1990 3. A formula has been devised to determine the tipping fee for "special waste" based on the comparative density of the special waste to routine municipal solid waste. This methodology attempts to adapt the fees to accommodate the space utilized by all waste as equally as feasible. Using the formula and waste density estimate which you provided of 75 lbs/cubic foot, or 2,025 lbs/cubic yard, the calculated tip fee is $7.00 per ton. There is also a possibility of an additional 50% surcharge of $3.50 per ton should special handling be required. I don't anticipate any problems requiring 'special handling at this time. The actual recommended tip fee will be determined upon laboratory certification of a specific weight of the waste.
