On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules
(15A NCAC 2B .0233)
Dear Ms. Kemp:
OnOctober 23, 2009, at your request Eric Kulz with the DWQ 401 Oversight and Express
Review Permitting Unit conducted an on-site determination to review one stream feature located
on the subject property for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). The
Feature is labeled as "A" on the attached map initialed by Mr. Kulz on January 14, 2008.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the surface water labeled as
"A" on the attached maps is at least intermittent beginning at a point at the edge of the
woodline, and is Subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule. This on-site determination shall expire
five (5) years from the date of this letter.
The surface water feature labeled as "B" on the maps is Little Lick Creek, which is a large
perennial stream also subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule.
Landowners or affected parties that dispute a determination made by the DWQ or Delegated
Local Authority that a surface water exists and that it is subject to the buffer rule may request a
determination by the Director. A request for a determination by the Director shall be referred to
the Director in writing c/o Cyndi Karoly, DWQ 401 Oversight/Express Permitting Unit, 2321
Crabtree Blvd., Suite 250, Raleigh, NC 27604-2260. Individuals that dispute a determination by
the DWQ or Delegated Local Authority that "exempts" a surface water from the buffer rule may
ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this

letter. Applicants are hereby notified that the 60-day statutory appeal time does not start until the
affected party (including downstream and adjacent landowners) is notified of this decision.

binding unless you ask for a hearing within 60 days.

within the buffers. Nor does this letter approve any activity within Waters of the United States
