have been located on the most recent published NRCS Soil Survey of WAYNE County, North Carolina and/or the most

characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams. There may be other streams or features located
on the property that do not appear on the maps referenced above but may be considered jurisdictional according
to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act.

that dispute a determination made by the DWR may request a determination by the Director. An appeal request
must be made within sixty (60) calendar days of date of this letter to the Director in writing.
