On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Tar - Pamlico River Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A
NCAC 2B.0259)
Dear Mr. Roberson:
On December 2, 2013, at your request Anthony Scarbraugh conducted on -site determinations to review
an unnamed tributary (UT) to Flat Swamp and Flat Swamp located on the subject property for
applicability to the Tar - Pamlico Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0259). The features are labeled as "13 -1213
A and 13 -1213 B" on the attached maps initialed by Mr. Scarbraugh on December 4, 2013. The project is
located approximately 0.5 miles southwest of the intersection of NC Highway 903 and NCSR 1159 (Flat
Swamp Road) near the town of Robersonville, Martin County.
At your request, Mr. Scarbraugh conducted on -site determinations as stated above. During his review,
he evaluated the stream using the DWR Stream Classification Form. He evaluated the stream reach at
13 -1213 A at N 35.81590, W 77.26417 and calculated the score to be 40.75 points. He evaluated the
stream reach at 13 -1213 B at N 35.81835, W 77.25874 and calculated the score to be 31 points. The
form states that if the score is "greater than or equal to 19 points the stream is at least intermittent."
The Division of Water Resources (DWR) has determined that the portion of the features labeled as
"13 -1213 A and 13 -1213 B" on the attached maps, and highlighted in blue is subject to the Tar - Pamlico
Buffer Rules. The feature and its associated buffers should be identified on any future plans for this
property. The owner (or future owners) should notify the DWR (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.

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. DWR recommends that the

the buffers. Nor does this letter approve any activity within Waters of the United States or Waters of
the State. If you have any additional questions or require additional information please call Anthony
