Subject: On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Mitigation Rules (15A NCAC 2H.0500)
Subject Property: Alcorn Rd, Oak Ridge NC, Guilford County
Dear Mr. Brame:
On January 25, 2018, at your request, Sue Homewood conducted an on-site determination to review features
located on the subject project for stream determinations with regards to the above noted state regulations.
David Bailey with the US Army Corps of Engineers was also present during the site visit.
The Division acknowledges the areas and boundaries identified as jurisdictional wetlands by the USACE.
The attached sketch accurately depicts all stream determinations conducted during the site visit.
Please note that at the time of this letter, all perennial stream channels and jurisdictional wetlands found on
the property are subject to the mitigation rules cited above. In addition, the Jordan Lake Buffer Rules may
apply to some streams at this location, please be sure to contact the local government for further information
regarding the Jordan Lake Buffer Rules.
The owner (or future owners) should notify the Division (and other relevant agencies) of this decision in
any future correspondences concerning this property. 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 Division or Delegated Local
Authority 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
401 & Buffer Permitting Branch, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1650. Individuals that
dispute a determination by the Division or Delegated Local Authority that "exempts" surface water from
the buffer rule may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you
receive this letter. Applicants are hereby notified that the 60 -day statutory appeal time does not start until
the affected party (including downstream and adjacent landowners) is notified of this decision. The
Division recommends that the applicant conduct this notification in order to be certain that third party
appeals are made in a timely manner. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to
Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail
Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This determination is final and binding unless you ask for a
hearing within 60 days.
