Meanwhile, the Board will agree to supply the County with treated water in accordance with a new contract negotiated between the parties. It is recognized that at this time the Board of Light and Water Commissioners has the only facilities for treating water. e Cabarrus County shall agree to an operations and maintenance contract with the City (such as has already been proposed) to pertain to all current and future County water and sewer facilities. Cabarrus County shall adhere to all current and future City specifications and regulations in the construction and installation of water and sewer facilities. It is contemplated that the final EPA audit of the Rocky River Regional Wastewater Treatment Project will be completed within approximately six months. After its acceptance and a financial settlement has been made by the County and Cannon Mills Company with the Board of Light and Water Commissioners as lead agent, then it will be agreeable by the Board of Light and Water Commissioners and the City of Concord to pursue the formation of a Metropolitan Sewer Authority. The operation and use of the plant and interceptors by the Authority shall be in accordance with the Agreement between the Board of Light and Water Commis- sioners of the City of Concord, Cabarrus County and Cannon Mills Company, dated September 5, 1975. The people of Concord have an investment in its water and sewer facilities of over $80,000,000.
