Subject: Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules 15A NCAC 02B .0714
Project Name: Glen Laurel Wakefield Assemblage
Address: 637 Glen Laurel Road, Clayton, NC 27520
Location: Lat., Long: 35.628421, -78.399800 Dear Mr. Clark: On May 26, 2022, Shelton Sullivan of the Division of Water Resources (DWR) conducted an on-site review of features located on the Glen Laurel Wakefield Assemblage site at the request of Sage Ecological Services, Inc. to determine the applicability of features on the site to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules, Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 02B .0714. The enclosed map(s), provided by Sage Ecological Services, Inc., depict the feature(s) evaluated and this information is also summarized in the table below. Streams were evaluated for being ephemeral, at least intermittent, and for subjectivity to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules. Streams that are considered “Subject” have been located on the most recently published NRCS Soil Survey of Johnston County and/or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic (at 1:24,000 scale) map(s), have been located on the ground at the site, and possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams. Features that are considered “Not Subject” have been determined to not be at least intermittent, not present on the property, or not depicted on the required maps.
This determination only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules within the
proposed project and property boundaries as presented by Sage Ecological Services, Inc.
and does not approve any activity within buffers or within waters of the state. There may
be other streams or features located on the property that appear or do not appear on the
maps referenced above. Any of the features on the site may be considered jurisdictional
according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
The following table addresses the features observed and rated during the DWR site visit.
