NOTIFICATION OF JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION
Property Owner/Applicant: S&EC
Kevin Martin
Address: 8412 Falls of Neuse Road
Suite 104
Raleigh, North Carolina 27615
Telephone Number:
Size (acres) 89 (approximately) Nearest Town Franklinton
Nearest Waterway Cedar Creek River Basin Pamlico
USGS HUC 03020101 Coordinates Latitude: 36.089381
Longitude: -78.4704288
Location description: The site is located immediately north of the US Highway 1, Main Street intersection, in
Franklinton, Franklin County, North Carolina and is identified as Essex Place.
Both an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) and a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) were
conducted at this site. The specific waters that were reviewed under the AJD are identified as follows: Wetlands
W5/DM 03 CL, and W6; pond P2. These features are bounded by a solid yellow polygon (project area) approximately 4
acres in size. The specific waters that were reviewed under the PJD are as follows: Tributaries Cedar Creek, Si and S2;
Wetlands Wl, W2, W3, W4, W7, W8, W9, W10, W11 and Pond (impoundment) Pl. These 3 tributaries, 9 wetlands and
1 pond/impoundment are also shown on the attached map and include all potential waters not reviewed under the AJD.
The project area for these waters are bounded by a solid red polygon (approximately 85 acres), and exclude the area
bounded by the solid yellow polygon, described above (See attached map).
Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
X There are waters, including wetlands, on the above described project area, that may be subject to Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently
accurate and reliable. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process,
including determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation
requirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all
waters and wetlands that would be affected in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional
waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program
Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may request an approved JD, which is an
appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
_ There are wetlands on the above described property, that may be subject to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). However, since the
waters, including wetlands, have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination may not be
used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is merely an
effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters, including wetlands, at the project area, which is
not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the
waters of the U.S. on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a
timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
_ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described property subject to the permit requirements of
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC
Page 1 of 2
SAW-2018-00888
§ 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period
not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
_ There are waters of the U.S., including wetlands, on the above described project area subject to the permit requirements
of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
_ We recommend you have the waters of the U.S. on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to
accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.
_ The waters of the U.S., including wetlands, on your project area have been delineated and the delineation has been
verified by the Corps. We strongly suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be
reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to
CWA jurisdiction on your property which, provided there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be
relied upon for a period not to exceed five years.
_ The waters of the U.S., including wetlands, have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat
signed by the Corps Regulatory Official identified below on . Unless there is a change in the law or our
published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this
notification.
X There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our
published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this
notification.
_ The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act
(CAMA). You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at (252) 808-2808 to
determine their requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit
may constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material,
construction or placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the
Army permit may constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If
you have any questions regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Andrew Williams at
(919) 554-4884 or Andrew.E.Williams2(ausace.armv.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: See attached Approved JD forms.
D. Remarks: See attached Preliminary Jurisdictional Form
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the
particular site identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation
provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation
in USDA programs, you should request a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources
Conservation Service, prior to starting work.

S&EC reserves the right to modify this map based on more fieldwork,
and any other additional information. Approximations were mapped
using
topographic maps, air photos and ground truthing. If the site is going
to be disturbed, S&EC's detailed delineation should be approved and
permitted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as required. If the user of
this work desires an accurate map of the regulated features flagged by
S&EC, they should retain a NC Registered Professional Land Surveyor to
locate S&EC's flagging.
