On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Tar - Pamlico River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A
NCAC 2B.0259)
Dear Dr. Leverett:
Case number 161
On June 11, 2012 at your request, I conducted an on -site determination to review drainage features located in the subject
town for applicability to the Tar - Pamlico Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B.0259). The features reviewed are labeled as `12-
0547 A through 12 -0547 E" on the attached maps and initialed by me on June 13, 2012,
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the features labeled as 1112 -0547 A through 12 -0547 E"
on the attached maps, and highlighted in blue are subject to the Tar Pamlico Buffer Rules. Stream determination
(A) ends at point 12 -0547 A (N 35° 54.895' W 76° 36.362') at the culvert crossing under the railroad tracks, marked on
the ground with yellow DWQ flagging, and continues downstream to Pantego Creek. The second (B) determinations ends
at point 12 -0547 B (N 35° 54.559' W 76° 62.980') located on the downstream side of the railroad stream crossing, as
shown on attached maps and marked on the ground with yellow DWQ flagging, and continues downstream to Pantego
Creek. The third (C) determinations ends at point 12 -0547 C (N 35° 53.886' W 76° 62.215') located on the downstream
side of bridge crossing on Allen Street, as shown on attached maps and marked on the bridge railing with yellow DWQ
flagging, and continues downstream to Pantego Creek. The fourth (D) determinations ends at point 12 -0547 D (N 350
53.845' W 760 61.127') located on the downstream side of the road culvert crossing under East Pantego Street, as shown
on attached maps and marked on a fence post with yellow DWQ flagging, and continues downstream out to Battalina
Creek. The fifth (E) determinations ends at point 12 -0547 E (N 35° 54.481' W 76° 61.201') located on the downstream
side of the road culvert crossing under Pamlico Street (Hwy. 264), as shown on attached maps and marked on the ground
with yellow DWQ flagging, and continues downstream to Battalina Creek.
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

"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
for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the
