Beaufort and Martin Counties, WBS# 35494.1.1
Dear Mr. Barns,
Enclosed is a draft Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination(PJD)package for your
review, which includes the following attachments:
• Figure 1 —Vicinity Map ■ NCDWR Wetland Rating Worksheets
• Figure 2—USGS Quad Map • USACE Wetland Determination Data Forms
• Figure 3 —Water Resources • USACE Upland Determination Data Forms
• Figure 4— Soils Map • Preliminary JD Form
■ Jurisdictional Determination Request Form
This project has a Jurisdictional Determination that expired on 1/29/2009. Action ID
200411082, expiration date 1/29/2009, and a copy of the expired Jurisdictional
Determination document is attached. In addition to the previous Jurisdictional
Determination, Wetland WA and Stream SA were previously part of the R-2510 study
area.
In reference to page 11 of the JD Request Form, the GPS equipment utilized to locate
features on this project was the Trimble® R1TM sub-meter accurate GPS receiver.
The following tables provide a summary of stream, wetland and open water features for
the project study area.
