NCDENR DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY August 10, 1999 JAMES B. HUNT JR. Mr. Derek Baker GOVERNOR 3800 Crooked Brook Trail Apex, NC 27502 Subject: Neuse River Basin WAYNE MCDEVITT SECRETARY Riparian Buffer Rules NBRRO 99 176 Baker Tract Sky Meadow Drive Wake County Dear Mr. Baker: On August 9, 1999, I conducted a site visit of the stream involved in the above referenced project. It was determined as a result of the site visit that the water body/ channel present on the property was an intermittent stream and therefore subject to the Neuse River Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy; Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02B.0233 (NCAC 0233). The site visit was made to discuss a road access from the end of Sky Meadow Drive onto the adjacent property (Pin # 0760 04-73-4151). The site contains streams that are protected under the Neuse River Basin Plan. A road crossing could be accomplished without buffer encroachment. However, there are no current plans to mark the exact location of the road. It is allowable under the rule to disturb the buffer to gain access to property providing that there is no practical alternative to this disturbance. The site was not completely evaluated just the area at the end of Sky Meadow Drive.This office has assigned the reference number of NBRRO 99 176 to this project. Thank you for your attention to this matter and if this Office can be of any assistance or if you have any additional questions concerning this letter, please do not hesitate to contact me at 571-4700 ext. 245. cc: RRO Files / John Dorney Sincere y, arles Brow Environmental Specialist 3800 BARRETT DRIVE, SUITE 101, RALE IOH, NORTH CAROLINA 27609 PHONE 819-571-4700 FAX 919-571-4718 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY /AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 50% RECYCLED/109'x, POST-CONSUMER PAPER Rua 09 99 01:20p Engineering 552-9881 p.2 TV F 7-, 10 fit 0 Q I ,. i G 1
