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 Engineers.

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
