Subject Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Rules
NBRRO 00 -072
The Meadows Subdivision
Nash County
Dear Mr. Proctor:
On March 14, 1999, I met with you at the subject property to conduct a site visit for the above referenced project
This project was initially referenced by the Raleigh Regional Office as NBRRO 00-072.
The features represented on the Nash County Soils and the USCS Drake maps were evaluated to determine their
subjectivity to the Neuse Buffer Rule. As a result, it was determined that there is one feature (streams) that is present
on the property. This stream is subject to protection under the Tar Pamlico River Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters
Management Strategy; Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02t3.0259
(NCAC 0259).
The Table of Uses for this Rule allows road 'crossin88 that impact equal to or less than 150 linear feet or one -third of
an acre of riparian buffer as allowable with notification and greater than that threshold as allowable with mitigation. Any
proposed impact greater than that of the threshold value must meet the no practical alternative analysis criteria.
Subsequent to that, the project may then require a variance, stormwater control methodologies, and/or mitigation.
This letter only addresses the applicability of the Tar Pam Buffer Rules. Thank you for your attention to this matter and
if this Office can be of any assistance or if you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

This project was initially referenced by the Qaleigh Qegional Office as NBQQO 00 -072.
The features represented on the Nash County Soils and the USCS Drake maps were evaluated to determine their
