On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC
2B .0233)
Dear Mr. Tyson:
On April 09 , 2010, at your request, I conducted an on-site determination to review an unnamed tributary to Big
Creek located on the subject property for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). The
feature is labeled as "2010-0473" on the attached neap initialed by me on 6110/10.
During my review I evaluated the feature "2010-0473" and found no visible channel to perform a stream
evaluation. During my site visit I determined the feature shown on the attached map as not present. The
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the surface water labeled as 112010-0473" on the
attached map is exempt to the Neuse Buffer Rules from its origin, flowing east to its confluence with Big
Creek as indicated on the attached map. This feature should be identified on any fiiture plans for this
property. 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.

water from the buffer rule may ask for an adjudicatory hearing, 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. DWQ
