The feature is labeled as "A" on the attached map, initialed by Lia Myott on June 13, 2007. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the following: Feature "A " is an ephemeral Swale and is therefore not subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule. Feature "B" is an uncontested intermittent stream and is therefore subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule. 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 DWQ that a surface water exists and that it is subject to the buffer rule may request a determination by the Director.
