Orange County enforces a <br />stream buffer along streams and water features in the County per the Orange County <br />Zoning Ordinance (see Section 6.24.1 Additional Requirements for Lots Outside of <br />Watershed Protection Areas, as amended on May 20, 2003). <br />The evaluation showed that there are several water features on the parcel in question <br />that are subject to buffer regulations. The water features are approximately referenced <br />on the attached aerial photograph /map. The subject water features will require a 65' or <br />~ 80' undisturbed buffer along both sides, calculated per the referenced Zoning <br />regulations. These undisturbed buffer areas shall be measured from the top of the <br />stream bank, outer edge of wet, marshy areas, or outer edge of;the floodplain where <br />applicable (see below): <br />S:\\ErosionControlDivision\2009\CapeFear\011609.TM6~6.26..5&6.26..27.West54 <br />January 16, 2009 <br />
