Coddle Creek Update Mr. Watson gave an update on the status of the Coddle Creek Reservoir project. The North Carolina Dam Safety Office had issued a temporary permit on March 3 for the impoundment of water, contingent upon the County's addressing the requirements of the Water Supply Group. The County Manager had mailed a notice of contract default to Blythe Industries if the reservoir clearing was not completed by March 7. Mr. Watson reported that the work had not been done although company officials had indicated to him on this date that it was their position that the work was complete. Mr. Hartsell advised that a second ten-day notice of failure to meet the conditions of the contract should be issued by the County at this time. By consensus, the Board directed the County Attorney to take appropriate action and to send a second notice to appropriate parties under the General Conditions of the contract with Blythe Industries. In response to questions by Commissioner Carpenter, Mr. Watson informed the Board that the old North Carolina Highway 73 roadbed located within the reservoir will pose no future pollution problems. Water and Sewer District Meeting Chairman Barnhart recessed the meeting at 5:50 P.M. until the conclusion of the meeting of the Water and Sewer District.
