~ status of Contamination of Wells in North County.
Mr. Hodge advised that the Health Department and Water
Control Board reported that the well supplying a trailer park in North
County on Plantation Road was found to be contaminated with TCE
(trichloroethylene). This trailer park of approximately 35 - 40 units
has been put on the County water system and more connections may have
to be made after further testing.
Mr. Hodge requested that the Board grant permission to
extend the County water lines to those residents whose wells are
contaminated by TCE at a cost not to exceed $50,000 from the utility
Fund, and give the residents until July 1st to pay their water
connection fees.
Mr. Neil Obenshain, Regional Director, Water Control Board,
reported that sixteen wells were sampled Friday and half were found to
be contaminated with TCE. Additional wells will be tested in other
areas to determine the extent of the contamination. He indicated that
one possible source of the chemical could be the ITT Gallium Arsenide
Technology Center on Enon Drive and advised that there will be an

investigation to find the sources for a possible recovery of costs.
Dr. Molly Hagan, Director, Alleghany Health Department,

described TCE and advised that there are no immediate health risks
from low-level exposure found in the wells.
She recommended that
residents whose wells tested for TCE should drink bottled water and
install carbon filters until they can be hooked up to a safe water
supply.
Dr. Hagan advised that the County staff, tne Health
Department and the Water Control Board will continue tq work closely
together to monitor and remedy the situation.
She recommended that
residents with questions call either the Health Department or the
Water Control Board.
Supervisor Johnson advised that he will abstain because
the I
contaminate was discovered on a parcel of land wi th which he is
professionally associated.
Supervisor Nickens moved to grant Mr. Hodge's request to (1)

Attorney sent to the State Corporation Commission and taking a neutral
position on the APCO power line. He felt this letter of protest
should not be withdrawn due to the many citizens' concerns expressed

countermanded by the Chairman without notification to the other

to be reconsidered, he felt it proper to suggest that the County
Attorney take no action until this meeting.

County has no jurisdiction in making decisions concerning the power
line and the power line is the responsibility of the State Corporation
Commission.
