RE: Buffer Determination Appeal for Stream Feature A,
105 Symphony Court; Cary, Wake County, North Carolina
On behalf of the property owner, Mr. Chris M. Pieper, we request an appeal of the buffer determination
performed by Amy Chapman for the 105 Symphony Court Site. Amy Chapman met the
landowner/representative on site and determined feature "A" to be subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule (see
attached Soil Survey map). However, we believe this feature lacks the necessary indicators of an
intermittent/buffered stream channel. Therefore, please accept this letter as an official request of a re-
evaluation of feature "A" to the subjectivity of the Neuse Riparian Area Protection Rule.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience to coordinate a site meeting for re-evaluating the feature in
question. I can be reached at our office at [phone].
Sincerely,
Sean Clark
Environmental Scientist
