Subject: Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules 15A NCAC 02B .0714
Project Name: Little Timber Site
Address: Oberry Road, Mount Olive, NC
Location: Lat., Long: 35.257439,-78.100931
Dear Mr. Burbage:
On January 25, 2023, Shelton Sullivan of the Division of Water Resources (DWR) conducted an on -
site review of feature(s) located on the Little Timber Site at the request of Eco Terra LLC to determine
the presence of streams and the applicability of features on the site to the Neuse River Riparian Area
Protection Rules, Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 02B .0714.
The enclosed map(s) depict the feature(s) evaluated and this information is also summarized in the
table below. Streams were evaluated for being ephemeral, at least intermittent, and for subjectivity
to the Neuse River Riparian Area Protection Rules. Streams that are considered "Subject" have been
located on the most recently published County NRCS Soil Survey and/or the most recent copy of the
USGS Topographic (at 1:24,000 scale) map(s), have been located on the ground at the site, and
possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams. Features that are
considered "Not Subject" have been determined to not be at least intermittent, not present on the
property, or not depicted on the required maps.
This determination only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules within the proposed
property boundary or proposed easement and does not approve any activity within buffers or
within waters of the state. There may be other streams or features located on the property or
adjacent property that were not evaluated or do not appear on the maps referenced above.
Any of the features on the site may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army
Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
The following table lists the features observed for determination during the DWR site visit. See the
attached maps for reference.
