3. The applicant must provide a detailed survey that field verifies the location of all perennial a-P4 <br /> ; ;T streams, lakes, ponds, impoundments and wetlands on the subject property and <br /> within 100 feet of the boundary of the subject property for all proposed plats and site plans. <br /> 4. Streams may exist even if they are not mapped on the USGS Quadrangle Maps or NCRS Soil <br /> Survey Maps. A qualified professional must identify streams that exist on the site but are not <br /> mapped. For purposes of this section, a qualified professional shall mean an individual that has <br /> attended wetlands delineation training using application of the 1987 Wetland Delineation <br /> Manual by the US Army Corps of Engineers and Identification of Perennial and Intermittent <br /> Streams training supported by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality. <br /> 5. The determination that a waterbody or stream indicated on a USGS Map or NRCS soil survey <br /> map does not exist must be concurred by the NCDENR Division of Water Quality and/or the US <br /> Army Corps of Engineers. <br /> 6. The Waterbody Buffer Zone shall be determined and clearly delineated on site prior to any <br /> development or pre-development activity occurring in order to protect the required buffer from <br /> encroachment or damage. No development, including soil disturbing activities or grading, shall <br /> occur within the established buffer area. <br /> 7. The waterbody buffer shall be maintained as follows and shall be shown on all site plans or <br /> subdivision plats related to the project submitted for review, including soil and erosion control <br /> plans: <br /> a. The size of a perennial stream ^9P Clarr=waterbody buffer shall be measured from the <br /> annual average stream bank, perpendicularly for a distance of 50 feet plus 4 times the <br /> average percent of slope of area adjacent to the stream. This slope shall be calculated <br /> by measuring a distance of 250 feet from the center of the stream. The percent of slope <br /> for this distance shall serve as the determining factor. However, the maximum distance <br /> shall not exceed 120 feet from the edge of the stream. For Lakes, ponds or <br /> impoundments,the buffer shall be computed using the high water elevation in place of <br /> the stream bank in the calculation. <br /> Attachment number 1 \n <br /> G-5 Page 130 <br />
