Mr. Goering,
Please find attached the documentation indicating that your proposed residential/driveway crossing would be exempt
from the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules. I think I mentioned when we spoke by phone recently/the other day that
you'll also want to make sure with Mr. Beecher (cc'ed on this correspondence) that your plans would not require any
sort of permit from the Corps of Engineers. If you have any additional questions, please let me know how I can be of
help.

The Division of Water Resources has determined that the streams listed above and included on the attached map
have been located on the most recent published NRCS Soil Survey of Craven County, North Carolina and/or the
most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000 scale and evaluated for applicability to the Neuse
Riparian Buffer Rule. Each stream that is checked "Not Subject' has been determined to not be at least
intermittent or not present on the property. Streams that are checked "Subject' have been located on the
property and possess 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.
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 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.
