North Carolina 27203 Telephone: 336.625.6104 My office has been retained by Wyatt Marlow in reference to the property located at 3083 Thompson Heath Road, Sophia. As I am sure you are well aware, my client believes that there is substantial erosion and sediment runoff occurring at the construction site of US -311 Bypass near the Spencer Road exit. The sediment has migrated all the way to my client's tract causing substantial damage to a lake located on the property. My client has hired a soil scientist to survey the existing pond. After a preliminary inspection, it appears that the findings will be in stark contrast to the pond sediment investigation conducted by N.C.D.O.T. on October 25, 2010. At this time, my client is simply requesting that adequate erosion measures be installed to prevent future runoff. In addition, he is requesting that the sediment that has washed into his pond be removed. My client hopes that this matter will receive the immediate attention that this serious situation demands. Given the number of violations that have occurred at this site, I hope that the Department of Transportation will take immediate steps to correct this problem. If the Department of Transportation is unwilling or unable to rectify this situation, we will be forced to file seeking damages as a result of the sediment erosion. Please do not hesitate to contact my office once you have discussed this natter. I look forward to hearing from you at you earliest convenience.
