All buffer mitigation requests and approvals are administrated through the Riparian Restoration Buffer Fund. The
NCDOT will be responsible to ensure that appropriate compensation for the buffer mitigation will be provided in the agreed
upon method of fund transfer. Upon receipt of the NCDWR's Buffer Authorization Certification, NCDEQ DMS will transfer

will have completed its riparian buffer mitigation responsibility for this project. If the above referenced impact amounts are
revised, then this mitigation acceptance letter will no longer be valid and a new mitigation acceptance letter will be required
from DMS.
