Franklin St. Rocky Mount, NC Subject: On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Tar-Pamlico Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 02B .0734) Project Name: Whitakers Business Park Site Address / Location: 36.048037, -77.8179086 Dear Bradd Kerr: On December 12, 2023, Joe Myers conducted an on-site review of features located on the subject property at the request of Phil May of Inver Environmental Consulting to determine the applicability of the above-noted state regulations. The Division of Water Resources has determined that streams listed in the table below and identified on the attached maps are shown on either the most recently published NRCS Soil Survey of Nash County and/or the USGS National Map at a scale that incorporates the National Hydrography Dataset High Resolution data at 1:24,000 scale. Streams that are listed as “Subject” on the below table have been located on the ground at the site and possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams in accordance with the NC Stream Identification Manual v.4.11 and therefore subject to the Tar- Pamlico Buffer Rules. Please be aware that features identified as “not subject” may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
