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 09 of the most recent published (1989) NRCS Soil Survey of Craven
County, North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the USGS National Map
(https://apps.nationalmap.gov/viewer) and evaluated for applicability to the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rules. 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 natural 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 waters of the State and
jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
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.
