Dear Mr. Stuart,
The Division of Water Resources has determined that the streams listed as "subject" above and included on the attached map have been
located on the most recent published (1989) NRCS Soil Survey of Craven County, North Carolina and/or the web based Digital USGS National
Topographic Map https://apps.nationalmap.gov/viewer/ and evaluated for applicability to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC
02B .0714). For each stream that is checked "Not Subject" it has been determined to not be at least intermittent, not present on the property,
manmade or not represented on the most recent published (1989) NRCS Soil Survey of Craven County, North Carolina and/or the Digital USGS
National Topographic Map. There may be other streams or features located on the property that were not assessed and/or that do not appear
on the maps referenced above but may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean
Water Act.
