US Highway 17
Folkstone, NC
Dear Ms. Elks:
Terrain Environmental Consulting, PLLC (TEC) is requesting a Preliminary
Jurisdictional Determination at the above-referenced site on behalf of the property
owner, Mr. James Lane.
The site consists of an approximately 19.3-acre project site comprised of Onslow
County Parcel PINs 425903234489 and 425903230751. Our site visit was conducted
on May 10, 2023. The following documentation has been provided in support of this
request:
• Jurisdictional Determination Request Form
• Appendix 2 Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination Form
• Agent Authorization
• Figure 1 —Site Vicinity
• Figure 2— Project Site
• Figure 3— USGS Topography
• Figure 4—NRCS Soils
• Wetland Boundary Survey
• Wetland and Upland data forms
CLOSING
If you have any questions, require additional information, or wish to schedule a site
meeting, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Paul Masten, LSS, PWS
President/Owner
