Dear Mr. Dorney,

The Summerfield Fire Department has discussed the lake
project located at Witty Road with Mr. Hoag and are
interested in seeing this lake being constructed. With the
addition of this lake, we will be able to provide better fire
protection to the properties in this area. We also feel that
this would improve our chance to reduce our insurance class
to a 6. In order for this to be possible, certain
requirements must be met. The lake must be at least 1 acre
in size and hold a minimum of 10,000 gallons of water year
round. The road access to the lake must be all weather and
provide enough room for an engine to get close to the water
and allow room for tankers to corne in and out at this point.
This engine location should be as close to Witty Road as
possible to reduce the amount of time getting to a main road ~~
and to reduce traffic congestion at the engine site. If you ~
have need of any further information or would like to meet at ~ ~
the site to discuss this project, please feel free to contact" nA \ ~
me at [phone]. ~ \ ~'

'SUBJECT: 401 Certification
William Whitehurst Lake Association
", Guilford County

J.

ifi

'*'.~.:'.'

A site inspection of the subject project was made on
June 5, 1991. The wetland is classified as a Bottomland
Hardwood. A box turtle was observed. I heard a lot of
frogs. Mr. Hoag indicated that an egret is using the area.
It appears that a beaver dam has backed up the water in the
area~ however, no new cuttings were observed. I told Mr.
Hoag that we would deny a certificate for the lake. He then
requests to build a pond 3 acres in size. Due to the
importance of this wetland, the WSRO recommends that the 401
certificate be denied. This wetland should be preserved and
possibly' the DOT could acquire it for mitigation purposes .
If you find time, please make a site inspection.

SUBJECT:

A site inspection of the subject project was made on
June 5, 1991. The wetland is classified as a Bottomland
Hardwood. A box turtle was observed. I heard a lot of
frogs. Mr. Hoag indicated that an egret is using the area.
It appears that a beaver dam has backed up the water in the
area, however, no new cuttings were observed. I told Mr.
Hoag that we would deny a certificate for the lake. He then
requests to build a pond 3 acres in size. Due to the
importance of this wetland, the WSRO recommends that the 401
certificate be denied. This wetland should be preserved and
possiblX the DOT could acquire it for mitigation purposes .
If you find time, please make a site inspection.
