Please pick the response below that represents your stance on the above mentioned project?* Yes - I agree with the project. k No - I do not agree with he project. Comment I am opposed to the Westpoint development and believe their permit should be required to have a Public Hearing for the following reasons: -The application omits how the development has negative impacts on water quality, specifically Durham's drinking water (impacts from the 401 Individual Clean Water Act Permit). -The application ignores public safety concerns about direct human contact with water/runoff from the development. -The application omits how the development negatively impacts threatened and endangered species and their habitat. -The application does not account for how the development negatively impacts historic sites. Each reason needs to be addressed with a thorough investigation and a higher level of review from the US Army Corps of Engineers, along with additional oversight and impact assessments. I am requesting a public hearing from the Division of Water Resources per code: 15A NCAC .02H .0503 I also believe that the Save Black Meadow Ridge group has raised many concerns that I share, and I believe each point being raised by this group needs more thorough investigation, and would appreciate a response that reflects the vetting of those concerns.
