DWQ # 12 -0505
Wayne County
Subject Property: Property off New Hope Road (SR 1003) Next to Eastern Wayne High School
Neuse River Basin, UT of West Bear Creek [NEU 05, 27 -72 -2; C, Sw, NSW]
On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC
213 .0233)
Dear Mr. Gray:
On June 21, 2012 at your request, I conducted aCase number 141 ) review a drainage feature located on the subject
property next to East Wayne High School for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). The feature
is labeled as `12 -0505 A to 12 -0505 B" on the attached maps and initialed by me on June 27, 2012.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the feature labeled as "12 -0505 B to 12 -0505 A" on the
attached maps, and highlighted in red is not subject to the Neuse Buffer Rules. The stream determination begins at
the roadway culvert passing under New Hope Road (SR 1003), point 12 -0505 B, and continues downstream to point 12-
0505 A, as depicted on the enclosed maps, and 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 Karen Higgins, 1650 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699 -1650. Individuals that dispute a determination by the DWQ or Delegated Local Authority that
"exempts" a surface 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 recommends that
the applicant conduct this notification in order to be certain that third party appeals are made in a timely manner. To ask
