On March 19, 2014 the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application dated
March 11, 2014 requesting buffer authorization for the subject project. Upon review of the
proposed project, the Division has determined that this activity is considered an Allowable Use,
per the Table of Uses found in 15A NCAC 02B .0259(6) as stated in "Non- electric lines ".
Therefore, you are permitted to impact 803 square feet of Zone 2 of the riparian buffers along
Green Mill Run as specified in your application.
Please note that all areas impacted within the riparian buffer must be stabilized and vegetated
as soon as possible. This authorization is only valid for the purpose and design that you
described in your application. If you should change your project you may be required to apply
for a change in impacts to your authorization.
This Riparian Buffer Authorization does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain all other
required federal, state, or local approvals. Nor does this authorization approve any impacts to
waters of the State or waters of the U.S.
Please contact Roberto Scheller at 252 - 948 -3940 or roberto.scheller @ncdenr.goy if you have
any questions or concerns regarding this riparian buffer approval.
