Mr. Lee,
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 map sheet 5 of the most recent published (1981) NRCS Soil Survey of Jones
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.

If sending via delivery service (UPS, FedEx, etc.):

This determination is final and binding as detailed above unless an appeal is requested within sixty (60) days.
This determination only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules and does not approve any activity
within the buffers or waters. The project may require a Section 404/401 Permit for the proposed
activity. Any inquiries regarding applicability to the Clean Water Act should be directed to the US Army
Corps of Engineers Washington Regulatory Field Office at (910)-251-4629.
If you have questions regarding this determination, please feel free to contact Chris Pullinger at (252) 948-
