On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0233)
Dear Mr. Baumgartner:
On October 27, 2009, at your request, Lia Myott Gilleski conducted an on-site determination to review
two stream features located on the subject property for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A
NCAC 2B .0233). The features are labeled as "A" and "B" on the attached maps initialed by Lia M.
Gilleski on October 29, 2009. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the following:
• Feature "A" is subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule at the flag labeled "Al -Intermittent Stream
begins". The feature is a modified natural channel.
• Feature "B" is subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule since it is a perennial stream (Beaver Creek).
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. A request for a determination by the Director
shall be referred to the Director in writing c/o Cyndi Karoly, DWQ 401 Oversight/Express Review
Permitting Unit, 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604-2260. 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.
This determination is final and binding unless you ask for a hearing within 60 days.
This letter only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules and does not approve any activity within the
buffers. Nor does this letter approve any activity within Waters of the United States or Waters of the
State. If you have any questions, please contact Lia Myott Gilleski at 919.733.9502.
