Subject Property: Boyd Logging Site off Hwy 32, Acre Station, Beaufort County
Tar - Pamlico River Basin, Acre Swamp [TAR 07,29-34-35-1-1; C, Sw, NSW]
On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Tar - Pamlico River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A
NCAC 213.0259)
Dear Mr. Glancy:
On January 2, 2012 at your request, I conducted an on -site determination to review a drainage feature located on the
subject property for applicability to the Tar - Pamlico Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0259). The feature is labeled as
" #014" on the attached maps initialed by me on January 2, 2012.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the feature labeled as 11014" on the attached maps, and
highlighted in red is not subject to the Tar Pamlico Buffer Rules. The stream determination begins at point #014 (N
350 35.325" W 760 49.963'), and continues down gradient to end at afield path crossing as shown on enclosed maps
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
for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the
Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699 -6714. This determination is final and
binding unless you ask for a hearing within 60 days.
