Dear Ms. Strickland:
In reference to the subject project and as follow-up to previous correspondence, please find
enclosed one (1) copy of a March 7, 2011 letter from the Division of Land Resources (DLR). DLR is
confirming that they will not process the submitted erosion and sedimentation control application until
the Division of Water Quality rules on the buffer encroachment. Please advise if I need to provide any
additional exhibits to you to support a determination of potential buffer impact.
Thanks in advance for your help. Please contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

RE: Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan No. LENOI-2011-014
Project Name: NLWC- Improvements Phase X
Location: NC 58 & Various County: Lenoir
River Basin: Neuse
Date Received by LQS: February 9, 2011
Project Type: New
Dear Sir:
This office has received an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan for the subject project as
required by the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973.
We have performed a preliminary review of your plan and have noted apparent buffer encroachments
subject to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection and Maintenance Rule (15A NCAC 2B .0233).
This Rule applies to the 50-foot wide riparian buffers directly adjacent to surface waters (intermittent
streams, perennial streams, lakes, ponds, and estuaries) in the Neuse River Basin. Encroachments on
the protected buffers require written approval by the Division of Water Quality.
In light of the apparent buffer encroachments shown in your plan, we cannot consider your
application complete until we receive a copy of your DWQ approval or statement of exemption from
the rule. Therefore, we cannot initiate our 30-day statutory review time period until your application
is complete. For more information about this riparian area rule, please contact the Division of Water
Quality's Wetland/401 Unit at 919-733-1786, or DWQ in our regional office at 252-946-6481. By
copy of this letter we are notifying them that your project will need their attention.
