(1) E = Ephemeral, I = Intermittent, P = Perennial, NP = Not Present, N/A = Not Applicable NE = Not Evaluated
(2) Refers to State riparian buffer rules only. Stream, wetland, or pond impacts are still subject to applicable water
quality standards and permitting requirements.

Explanation: The stream(s)/pond(s) listed above has been located on the most recent published NRCS Soil Survey
of Granville County, North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1: 24,000
scale. Each feature that is checked “Not Subject” has been determined to not be an intermittent stream, perennial
stream, a pond connected to a stream feature, or the feature is determined not to be present . Stream features that are
checked “Subject” have been located on the property and possess characteristics that qualify them to be subject to
the buffer rules. There may be other streams located on the property that are not depicted on the maps referenced
above and are therefore not subject to the buffer rules. However, if the stream features are present on the tract they
are subject to all other applicable North Carolina stream standards and permitting requirements as outlined in 15A
NCAC 02B, and may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Enginee rs.

This on-site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. Landowners or affected
parties that dispute a determination made by the DWR may request a determination by the Director. An
appeal request must be made within sixty (60) days of date of this letter. A request for a determination by the
