Dear Mr. Crowther:
On March 21, 2024, DWR Staff Ryan Conchilla, conducted an on-site review of the potential stream feature
depicted downgradient of the pond located north of the intersection of Johnston Street and Pondhaven
Drive in High Point to determine the applicability of the above-noted state regulations.

The Division acknowledges all areas and boundaries identified as jurisdictional wetlands by the
USACE. The attached initialed and dated sketch accurately depicts all Division stream determinations
conducted during the site visit. An intermittent stream drains from the pond through a 15inch metal
culvert and into wetland (WY) downgradient. The streams and wetlands identified on the property should
be considered jurisdictional and subject to the mitigation rules cited above. Please note that these
regulations may be subject to change in the future.

The following table addresses the features assessed during the DWR site visit:
