Michaell Regain, Secretary DEQ,
l aim concerned that the quarry would cause Iiinterirulption and Ipeirmaineint daimage to the
groundwater supplies wind to the continued existence of wildlife llin ain area fair greater thain the
pairaimeteirs of the Iproposed quarry. 1Because of the Ilocatioin of the Iproposed quarry, the
inegative effects oin water wind air wind the llincreased inoise would spread to the Jordain IL.alke
forested areas wind Ibeyond. The inegative effect would Ibe aimpfified.
This area is Ipairt of wildlife train sportation routes; they ineed it Illilke we ineed Interstate 40.
In ad6fioin, we Ihuirnains ineed open spaces, as has Ibeein so clearly demonstrated these last
few moinths with the choice of so mainy of us to head to the open spaces, the parks and
woods to flind irellief from our stress ffliled lives. The gireeinways are a IpulbBlicized treasure of
Raleigh, and ir9iglhtly so. These gireeinways ineed a 250 undisturbed Ibuffeir to mallintallin the
much valued experience of the gireeinway.
l think the Iloingteirm Ibeinefits of more accessible state Ipairk Ilaind easily outweigh the shoirteirm
�beinefits of leasing the Ilaind for a quarry. In Ipairticullair, the economic Ibeinefits of the inatui4l
laindscape will continue to draw visitoirs and slkflkled people of mainy walllks of life to the area, to
the Ibeinefit of all.
