Subject: 9101 Falls ofNeuse Road (PIN 1718527761)
Dear Mr. Lankford:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) reviewed and approved the proposed
revisions to Wake County 9101 Falls of Neuse Road water supply watershed protection boundary
received by our office on July 29, 2022. A field survey and other supporting information documented the
watershed boundary relocation.
By examining site survey results and visiting the site, staff confirmed that the actual water supply
watershed protection boundary lies west of the existing boundary (adjacent to Falls ofNeuse Road).
Additional information that was submitted by Mr. Walton Jennette and that was prepared by a consultant
for NCDOT also supported the water supply watershed protection boundary change.
DEMLR approves these boundary changes in accordance with North Carolina General Statute 143-214.5
and North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02B .0100, .0200, .0620-.0624. Specifically, 15A
NCAC 02B .0623 (4) requires that all revisions to the water supply watershed boundaries must be
approved by the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) or its designee prior to adoption by the
local government.
We appreciate Wake County's efforts to help protect the vital public water supplies of this state. Please
contact me at paul.clark a,ncdenr.+,ov or [phone] should you need assistance.
Sincerely,
Paul Clark
Water Supply Watershed Protection Coordinator
