Sullins, Director c/o Amy Chapman, 401 Oversight/Express Review Permitting Unit 2321 Crabtree Blvd, Suite 250 Raleigh, NC 27604 From: Sean Clark, S&EC, P.A. RE: Intermittent / Perennial (UP) Stream Determination Appeal for Stream Feature B, John Gaster Heirs Property; Apex, Wake County, North Carolina Mr. Eric Kulz conducted an onsite Intermittent/Perennial Stream evaluation in August of 2005 and determined feature "B" to be perennial at a point immediately below a breached dam (see attached copy of DWQ letter). However, after a recent evaluation we believe this feature is an intermittent stream and lacks the necessary indicators of a perennial stream channel. The site is within the jurisdiction of the Town of Apex, which requires I00-foot buffers on perennial streams and 50-foot buffers on intermittent streams. The August 26, 2005 letter was not supplied to the adjacent landowners surrounding the property at the time of the original field meeting. The 100-foot buffer applied to perennial streams has rendered areas unusable that would not be so if a 50-foot buffer were applied. Therefore, please accept this letter as an official request of a re-evaluation of feature "B" on the subject property. S&EC does not dispute any other stream calls made on site. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to coordinate a site meeting for re-evaluating the feature in question. I can be reached at our office at (919) 846-5900.
