NCDWR has determined that Devil Gut Brarich and Quewhiffle Creek unknown tributaries identified as
SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SI, SK, SL are perennial and are subject to the mitigation rules. Unknown
tributaries to Quewhiffle Creek identified as SJ and SM are intermittent and are not subject to the mitigation
rules. Please note that no other features at the site were evaluated. Also, this letter only addresses the
applicability to the mitigation rules and does not approve any activity within the Waters of the United States,
or Waters of the State. Any impacts to wetlands and streams must comply with the 404/401 regulations,
water supply regulations (15A NCAC 2B .0216), and any other required federal, state and local regulations.
The owner (or future owners) or permittee should notify NCDWR (and other relevant agencies) of this
determination in any future correspondences concerning this property and/or project. 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 NCDWR or Delegated Local
Authority that a surface water exists and that it is subject to the mitigation rules 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 Amy Chapman, NCDWR Wetlands/401 Unit, 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617.
Individuals that dispute a determination by NCDWR or Delegated Local Authority that "exempts" a surface
water from the mitigation rules may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You may obtain the petition form
from the ofFice of Administrative hearings. You must file the petition with the office of Administrative
Hearings within sixty (60) days of receipt of this notice and the date the affected party (including
