the Coastal Area Management Act with ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Dear Mr. Hucks:
You have our approval, in accordance with the conditions listed below, to impact approximately 2,375 square feet (ft) of
Zone 2 and 2,875 ft2 of Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers for the purpose of constructing a single-family home on
the subject property as described within your application dated October 28, 2003. This letter shall act as your approval for
the use of the "General" Major Variance; From the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rules for the Construction of
Residential Structures on Existing Lots within the Coastal Counties as defined by the Coastal Area Management Act with
ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS as approved by the Water Quality Committee (WQC) of the Environmental Management
Commission (EMC) on May 10, 2001. In addition, you should get any other required federal, state or local permits before
you proceed with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control and CAMA permits. This
approval shall expire when the variance expires on April 11, 2006 unless the variance is renewed before that time by the
EMC.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your variance request. If you change your
project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new request for approval. If the property is sold, the
new owner must be given a copy of this approval and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. For this
approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed below.
Conditions:
Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or applicable Buffer Rules, and
any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to return the attached certificate of completion to the
401/Wetlands Unit, North Carolina Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650.
2. Diffuse Flow
All new stormwater drainage shall be directed to vegetated areas as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities prior to
entering the protected riparian buffers as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233(5). No new ditching or piping of
stormwater through the protected buffers is allowed.
3. Protective Fencing
The outside buffer boundary and along the construction corridor within this boundary approved under this
authorization shall be clearly marked with orange fencing (or similar high visibility material) for the areas that have

You are required to mitigate for impacts to Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers. The required area of
mitigation to compensate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers is 2,875 square feet as required under this
variance approval. We understand that you wish to make a payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund
administered by the NC Wetlands Restoration Program (WRP) to meet this mitigation requirement. This has
been determined by the DWQ to be a suitable method to meet the mitigation requirement. In accordance with the
General Variance, this contribution will satisfy our compensatory mitigation requirements under 15A NCAC 213
.0233(9)(C). Until the WRP receives and clears your check (made payable to: DENR - Wetlands Restoration
Program Office), no impacts specified in this Authorization Certificate shall occur. Mr. Ron Ferrell should be
contacted at [phone] if you have any questions concerning payment into the WRP. You have one month
from the date of this approval to make this payment. For accounting purposes, this Authorization Certificate
authorizes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund to compensate for 2.875 ft2 of required
riparian buffer mitigation for impacts to 2,875 ft2 of protected riparian buffers; 03-04-10 river and
subbasin, 27-129-7-(1) stream index number."
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this approval, you may ask for and adjudicatory hearing. You must act within

4. Please provide an explanation of the following:
(1) The practical difficulties or hardships that would result from the strict application of this
Rule.
As stated in answer to Part 2, Question 2 above, strict application of riparian buffer rule...-
-would render lot unbuildable when taken together with the location of septic system-.---
-setback and 45' minimum build line.
(2) How these difficulties or hardships result from conditions that are unique to the property
involved.
-The cause of difficulties/hardships are due to a non-surveyed marsh (See Attachment B, C or D)
........ that literally bisects lot 54, and thereby imposes a riparian buffer zone that, followed strictly,
.....,.renders lot unbuildable ..
(3) If economic hardship is the major consideration, then include a specific explanation of the
economic hardships and the proportion of the hardship to the entire value of the project.
...........Economic hardship is not major consideration. Major consideration is the ability to ._.,_..__-..,
--...construct a home for my family. However, if variance is not granted, the unbuildable.-..._.__
... lot would become an economic hardship in that we paid a significant amount of money.

Attachment A
Project is construction of single family home. Proposed location of home, as
shown in Attachment B, is set as far landward (towards cul-de-sac) as allowed by
45' minimum build line, and as far right (when facing the lot from the cul-de-sac
- away from CAMA vegetation line) as allowed by 5' septic system setback. At
this location, the home perimeter crosses zone 2 riparian buffer line into zone 1
riparian buffer. In order to ensure stable ground on which to build foundation for
home, we are requesting a variance to riparian buffer rule in order to allow
filling/grading of zone 1 and zone 2 areas that are adjacent and landward of
CAMA vegetation line. Requested areas are shown shaded on Attachment C.
Request involves 2375 ft2 of zone 2 area and 2875 ft2 of zone 1 area.
2. As shown in Attachment D, due to location of septic system and un-surveyed
marsh that bisect this lot, strict application of riparian buffer rule would leave
only 554 ftavailable for construction. Considering the fact that, as per
neighborhood covenants, the minimum square footage home allowed to be built in
Oriental Plantation is 1500 ft2, this lot would be rendered effectively unbuildable.
3. Orientation of home on the lot and land grading techniques would be
implemented so as to ensure diffuse flow is maintained into marsh. Including use
of rip-rap or other natural or constructed bulkheading material, fortification of
buffer area vegetation, and diffusion of roof gutter flow.

" General" MAJOR VARIANCE
From the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico Riparian Buffer Protection Rules for residential
structures on existing lots within the coastal counties as defined by the Coastal Area
Management Act that meet the conditions stated below.
This "general" major variance from the Riparian Buffer Protection Rules in the Neuse
(15A NCAC 2B .0233) and Tar-Pamlico (15A NCAC 2B .0259) River Basins is hereby issued by
the NC Environmental Management Commission (EMC) for impacts to the protected buffers as
long as the conditions prescribed below are met.
The applicant must submit to Division of Water Quality (DWQ) three copies of the DWQ
"General" Major Variance Application Form that describes how the following conditions of this
variance will be met. If these conditions can not be met, an individual Major or Minor Variance
from the Buffer Rules may be sought from the EMC. This "General" Major Variance shall expire
on April 11, 2006 unless it is renewed before that time by the EMC.
Conditions:
1. The residential lot must be located within one of the coastal counties as defined
by the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
2. Applicants must show that they have met the requirements for a variance as
specified in the buffer rules in. "VARIANCES" [15A NCAC 2B .0233(9)(a)(i)-
(iii) and 15A NCAC 2B .0259(9)(a)(i)-(iii)] for the specific river basin where the
impacts will occur.
3. Applicants must show that the residential lot has been platted and recorded prior
to August 1, 2000.
4. Construction is for residential buildings and related structures such as garages,
decks, porches, attached commercial buildings, driveways and sheds.
5. Substantial expenditures and contractual obligations must have occurred in good
faith prior to the August 1, 2000. Substantial expenditures and obligations must
have been made in reasonable reliance upon governmental permits and/or
approvals (such as 401 Water Quality Certifications, CAMA permits, active
connection to an existing sanitary sewer system or local on-site wastewater
system approvals). Supportive written documentation must be submitted to the
DWQ for review.
6. The lot must be buildable, without wetland impacts except for driveways and/or
utility crossings and any impact to the buffer shall be minimized to the maximum
extent practical.
7. Where impacts to the buffer will occur, the impact should be minimized to the
greatest extent practicable as determined by DWQ staff.
8. Any on-site wastewater treatment must not be located within 50 feet of a surface
water as specified in "ZONES OF THE RIPARIAN BUFFER" [15A NCAC 2B
.0233(4) and 15A NCAC 2B .0259(4)] of the buffer rules. The only exceptions
include any pretreatment systems meeting the Treatment Standard 1 as found in
15A NCAC 18A .1969 Innovative System Approval regulated by the NCB.
Division of Environmental Health, On-site Wastewater Section.
9. On-site stormwater management controls must be shown on the application and
stormwater runoff must be directed away from the adjacent surface water and/or
coast wetland as determined sufficient by DWQ staff; measures such as rain
gardens, bio-retention areas, vegetative filter strips and planting of trees or shrubs
along bulkheads and/or property lines to maximize pollutant removal may be
required as determined by DWQ staff. If the applicant is required to obtain a
Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permit or a CAMA Major Permit, then a
Stormwater Permit may be required from the DWQ.
10. Mitigation will be required at a 1:1 ratio for impacts to Zone 1. This mitigation
can be accomplished by either (1) payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration
Fund (administered by the DWQ Wetlands Restoration Program), (2) planting or
protection of a riparian area not subject to the buffer rules, or (3) additional
planting of a partially buffered location on-site or in close proximity to the
impacted area. Mitigation plans must be approved in writing by the DWQ prior
to construction.
11. The applicant must receive written approval from the DWQ based on the
submittal of the "General" Major Variance Application Form acknowledging that
these conditions have been met before any impacts occur to the riparian buffer.
12. The applicant must contact the appropriate District office of the N.C. Division of
Coastal Management or Local Permitting Officer for any current requirements
for CAMA Major, Minor or General Permits. In addition, the applicant must file
(if needed) an application with the Local Health Department for an on-site
wastewater system prior to any site construction. The Improvement Permit and
the Construction Authorization is required to be issued prior to any other building
or construction permit [Ref. G.S. 130A-3381.
