*E/1/P = Ephemeral/Intermittent/Perennial
The Division of Water Resources has determined that the streams listed in the table above and included on the attached map have been
located on page 6 of the most recent published (1980) NRCS Soil Survey of Greene County, North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the
Hookerton USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000 scale and evaluated for applicability to the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule. Each feature that is
checked "Not Subject" and highlighted on the attached maps in "red" has been determined to be either man-made in nature, ephemeral, or
not present on the property. Features that are checked "Subject" and highlighted on the attached maps in "blue" have been located on the
property and possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams. There may be other streams or features located on
the property that do not appear on the maps referenced above but may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of
Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
NOTE: There was a previously existing building impact located on the site, with dimensions 90' x 30', and a portion of which (approximately
250 square feet) was within the riparian buffer. This project proposes putting anew building of similar or smaller size back in the same
existing footprint of the old building, with no new buffer impacts, and is therefore a "Deemed Allowable" activity and may proceed.
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 DWR may request a determination by the Director. An appeal request must be made within sixty (60) calendar
days of date of this letter to the Director in writing.

waters. The project may require a Section 404/401 Permit for the proposed activity. Any inquiries regarding applicability to the
Clean Water Act should be directed to the US Army Corps of Engineers Washington Regulatory Field Office at (910)-251-4629.
