TDEC responds to TCWN’s Rarity complaint…
Sunday, September 27th, 2009We received a response from TDEC addressing the complaint (and attached photo documentation) we sent about violations at the Rarity Ridge site in Oak Ridge. Click here to read the response. We appreciate TDEC’s quick follow up and inspection at the site. We also appreciate their enforcement against the upstream contributor to sediment in Roberts Branch. However, we think more action should have been taken to clear the streets and storm drains of months and months of collected sediment. This site operator has been informed on more than 4 occasions about violations at the development. Hopefully this site has taken the necessary steps to prevent dirt from entering our waters. To make sure, we’ll get back out there soon and let you know what we find!
