On-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0233)
On January 8, 2007, at your request, an on-site determination was conducted to review four stream features
located on the subject property for;applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). The three
features that are subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule are labeled as "Stream 1 ", "Stream 4", and "Stream 5" on the
attached map, initialed by Amy Chapman on January 22, 2007. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has
determined that the following:
• Feature "Stream 1"you did not dispute as perennial and does show on the Granville County Soil Survey,
and is therefore subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule.
• Feature "Stream 2" is an intermittent stream, but does not show on the USGS Topo map or Granville
County Soil Survey map and is therefore not subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule from the flag labeled
"Stream 2" (N 873124,E 2082537).
• Feature "Stream 3" is a perennial stream but does not show on the USGS Topo map or Granville County
Soil Survey map and is therefore not subL to the Neuse Buffer Rule from the flag labeled "Begin
Perennial" (N 873052,E 2082580) and ends at the flag labeled, "Stop Stream 3" (N 872941, E2082512).
• Feature "Stream 4" is a perennial stream and is therefore subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule from the flag
labeled "Start Stream 4" (1V 871891,E 2082488).
• Feature "Stream 'S" is at least an intermittent stream and is therefore subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule from
(N 872761,E 2081840) and ends at (N 873113,E 2082252).
This on-site determination shall expire five (5)-years from the date of this letter.
Landowners or affected parties. that dispute a determination made by the DWQ that a surface water exists and that
it is subject to the buffer rule may request a determination by the Director. A request for a determination by the
Director shall be referred to the Director in writing c/o Cyndi Karoly, DWQ 401 Oversight/Express Review
