Approval of Neuse River Riparian Buffer Protection Rules Minor Variance [15A NCAC 2B
.0233 (9)(b)]
Dear Mr. Smith:
You have our approval, in accordance with the conditions listed below, to impact 500 square feet
(ft) of Zone 2 of the protected buffers to construct a new sanctuary on the subject property as
described within your variance request dated September 1, 2005 and received by the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) on September 16, 2005. This letter shall act as your Minor Variance
approval as described within 15A NCAC 2B .0233(9)(b). In addition to this approval, you
should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before
you go ahead with your project.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner(s) must be given a copy of this variance approval and is
thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. This approval requires you to follow
any conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. No Zone 1 Impacts
No impacts (except for proposed and "exempt" uses as identified within 15A NCAC 2B
.0233) shall occur to Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers unless otherwise approved
by the DWQ. No impervious surfaces shall be added to Zone 1, unless otherwise
approved by the DWQ. 0*A

2. Buffer Mitigation (EEP)
You are required to mitigate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers. The
required area of mitigation to compensate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers is
750 square feet as required under this variance approval and 15A NCAC 2B .0233.
You have the option to make a payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund
administered by the NC Ecological Enhancement Program (EEP) to meet this mitigation
requirement. This has been determined by the DWQ to be a suitable method to meet the
mitigation requirement. In accordance with 15A NCAC 2B .0233, this contribution will
satisfy our compensatory mitigation requirements under 15A NCAC 2B .0233(9)(C).
Until the EEP receives and clears your check (made payable to: DENR Ecological
Enhancement Program Office), no impacts specified in this variance approval shall occur.
The EEP should be contacted at [phone] if you have any questions concerning
payment into the EEP. For accounting purposes, this variance approval authorizes
payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund to compensate for 750 W of
required riparian buffer mitigation for impacts to 500 W of protected riparian
buffers; 30-04-10, 27-129-(1) river and subbasin."
3. Diffuse Flow
An additional condition is that all stormwater shall be directed as diffuse flow at non-
erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers and will not re-concentrate before
discharging into the stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233(5).
4. Certificate of Completion
Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or
applicable Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to
return the attached certificate of completion to the 401/Wetlands Unit, North Carolina
Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650.
Requests for appeals of this decision shall be made to the Office of Administrative Hearings. If
you do not accept any of the conditions of this approval, you may ask for and adjudicatory
hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. 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, NC
27699-6714. This approval and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This Minor Variance Approval shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter.

Riparian Buffer Protection Rules [15A NCAC 2B.0233(9)(b)]. Please call Kyle Barnes at 252-
