Dear Michelle,
Reference is made to ORM ID SAW-2014-01632, please reference this number on any correspondence
regarding this action.
On January 14, 2022, we received information from you requesting the Wilmington District, Regulatory
Division review and concur with the boundaries of an aquatic resource delineation. Site visits occurred on
November 7-8, and December 6-7, 2022. Revised final aquatic resource mapping was received on February 2,
2023.
We have reviewed the information provided by you concerning the aquatic resources, and by copy of this e-
mail, are confirming that the aquatic resources delineation has been verified by the Corps to be a sufficiently
accurate and reliable representation of the location and extent of aquatic resources within the identified review
area. The location and extent of these aquatic resources are shown on the attached delineation maps (12 pages),
labeled JC Teague Road Potential Waters of the U.S. and dated January 19, 2023.
Regulatory Guidance Letter (RGL) 16-01
https://usace.contentdm.oclc.org/utils/getfile/collection/p16021coll9/id/1256 provides guidance for
Jurisdictional Determinations (JD) and states “The Corps generally does not issue a JD of any type where no JD
has been requested”. At this time we are only verifying the delineation. This delineation may be relied upon
for use in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. “This
verification does not address nor include any consideration for geographic jurisdiction on aquatic resources and
shall not be interpreted as such.

This delineation verification is not an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) and is not an appealable
action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (33 CFR Part 331).
