Subject: On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 02B .0714)
Project Name: Bolton Project
Site Address / Location: 3701 US Hwy 70, New Bern
Dear Mrs. Bolton.
On August 2, 2023, DWR staff Brooks Sherman and Paul Nyarko conducted an on -site review of features
located on the subject property at the request of Kelly Jones to determine the applicability of the above -
noted state regulations.
The Division of Water Resources has determined that streams listed in the table below and identified on
the attached maps are shown on either the most recently published NRCS Soil Survey of Craven County
and/or the USGS National Map at a scale that incorporates the National Hydrography Dataset High
Resolution data at 1:24,000 scale. Streams that are listed as "Subject" on the below table have been
located on the ground at the site and possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent
streams in accordance with the NC Stream Identification Manual v.4.11 and therefore subject to the
Neuse Buffer Rules. Please be aware that features identified as "not subject" may be considered
jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.
