MAP INFORMATION
The soil surveys that comprise your AOI were mapped at
1:15,800.
Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil
line placement. The maps do not show the small areas of
contrasting soils that could have been shown at a more detailed
scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements.
Source of Map: Natural Resources Conservation Service Web
Soil Survey URL:
Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)
Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator projection, which preserves
direction and shape but distorts distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more accurate calculations of distance or
area are required.
This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as of the version date(s) listed
below.
Soil Survey Area: New Hanover County, North Carolina Survey Area Data: Version 26, Sep
9, 2024
Soil map units are labeled (as space allows) for map scales
1:50,000 or larger.
Date(s) aerial images were photographed: Nov 8, 2022—Dec 1, 2022
The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were compiled and digitized probably
differs from the background imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor shifting
of map unit boundaries may be evident.
TO: New Hanover County Planning Department, New Hanover SWCD, March 24th,
2025
FROM: Dru Harrison, Director
RE:
I HAVE REVIEWED THIS PLAN AS REQUESTED AND HAVE THESE
COMMENTS: The soils are predominantly Kureb sand (Kr).
According to the booklet, “Wilmington/New Hanover Classification of soils for Septic
Tank Suitability, Kureb is a Class I soil.
The Soil Survey of New Hanover County lists Kureb as excessively well drained.
Kureb is on the Hydric Soils “B” list, which means it may contain areas of wetland. It
should be noted, according to the Soil Survey of New Hanover County, the limitation for
dwellings with or without basements and for small commercial buildings is severe for all
of the soils on this site. The limitations are due to flooding and/or wetness. An adequate
drainage and maintenance plan is needed for suitable housing.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has federal jurisdiction over 404 Permits and the
NCDEHNR, Dept. of Water Quality, has state jurisdiction over 401 Permits under the
Clean Water Act. Before disturbing possible wetland areas, developers should contact
these agencies to stay in compliance with State and Federal regulations.

•2024 Bicycle & Pedestrian Priorities Plan Amendment proposed project: Carolina Beach
Road South (US 421) paved multi-use path from Monkey Junction to Snows Cut Bridge.
TIA: A TIA for the proposed Masonboro Commons Starbucks was approved with conditions by
the WMPO on February 28th, 2025. All improvements outlined in the approved TIA are required.
Please reach out to Abby Lorenzo (Abigail.Lorenzo@wilmingtonnc.gov) and Caitlin Cerza
(Caitlin.Cerza@wilmingtonnc.gov) if any questions arise related to the TIA. The TIA approval
with conditions letter will be attached to these comments.
February 28, 2025 Jeff Hochanadel, PE, PTOE Timmons Group 5410 Trinity Road, Suite 102 Raleigh, NC 27607 RE: Approval with conditions for the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) associated with the proposed Masonboro Commons Starbucks development in New Hanover County, NC Dear Mr. Hochanadel, The WMPO has coordinated the review of the Masonboro Commons Starbucks TIA (sealed February 4, 2025)
by NCDOT and New Hanover County Staff. Based on the information provided and conversations held to date,
it is our understanding that the proposed development will be built in 2025 and will consist of:
Build Year 2025
• 2,500 SF Starbucks with Drive Thru (Local Data)
The following improvements are required for this development:
US 421 (Carolina Beach Road) at Site Access 1 (existing unsignalized right-in/right-out)
• No improvements are required.
US 421 (Carolina Beach Road) at SR 1524 (Golden Road)/Site Access 2 (existing signalized intersection)
• Extend the northbound left turn lane on US 421 (Carolina Beach Road) to provide 450 feet of full width
storage and appropriate deceleration and taper lengths.
If changes are made to the proposed site driveways and/or land uses, the current trip distribution may need to
be modified and would require a revised Traffic Impact Analysis to be submitted for review by the NCDOT,
WMPO, and New Hanover County, in which instance this approval would become null and void.
