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.

FROM: Dru Harrison, Director
RE:
I HAVE REVIEWED THIS PLAN AS REQUESTED AND HAVE THESE COMMENTS: The soils are
predominantly Leon sand (Le).
According to the booklet, “Wilmington/New Hanover Classification of soils for Septic Tank
Suitability, Leon is a Class III soils.
The Soil Survey of New Hanover County lists Leon as poorly drained.
Leon soils are on the New Hanover County Hydric Soils Ä list which means they are possibly
wetland areas and subject to regulation under the Clean Water Act. 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.
