Drainage Feature to Neuse River Basin On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B.0233)-EXPRESS REVIEW PROGRAM Dear Mr. Jones: On April 7, 2011, at your request, I conducted an on-site determination to review a drainage feature located on the subject property for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). The feature is labeled as "11-0321 A to 11- 0321 B" on the attached maps and initialed by me on April 11, 2011. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the feature labeled as "11-0321 A to 11-0321 B" on the attached maps, and highlighted in red is not subject to the Neuse Buffer Rules. The feature is marked on the ground with yellow DWQ flagging and starts at site 11-0321 A (N 35° 17.265' W 77° 52. 672') at the inlet of a culvert that passes under St. Johns Church Road and follows the drainage feature up gradient to the second point site 11-0321 B (N 35° 17.422' W 77° 52.600') above pond overflow outlet and is marked on the ground with yellow DWQ flagging. The owner (or future owners) should notify the DWQ (and other relevant agencies) of this decision in any future correspondences concerning this property. 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 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 John Domey, DWQ Wetlands/401 Unit, 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604-2260.

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.
