The table below reflects all Division stream determinations conducted during the site visit. There may be
other regulated waters, streams or other features located on the property that do not appear on the maps

the Clean Water Act.
The Division acknowledges all areas and boundaries identified as jurisdictional wetlands by the USACE. At
the time of this letter, all perennial stream channels and jurisdictional wetlands found on the property are
subject to the mitigation in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0506(c). Please note that these regulations
