TO: New Hanover County Planning Department, November 21st, 2024
FROM: Dru Harrison, Director
RE: Castle Hayne Rd - 3121 - Rainstorm Solutions
I HAVE REVIEWED THIS PLAN AS REQUESTED AND HAVE THESE
COMMENTS: The soils are predominantly Craven fine sandy loam (Cr), Johnston
Soils (JO), Lynchburg fine sand (Ls), Onslow loamy fine sand (On), and Wrightsboro
fine sandy loam (Wr).
According to the booklet, “Wilmington/New Hanover Classification of soils for
Septic Tank Suitability, Lynchburg, Onslow, and Wrightsboro are Class II soils,
Craven is a Class III soil, and Johnston is a Class IV soil.
The Soil Survey of New Hanover County lists Craven and Wrightsboro as moderately
well drained, Lynchburg and Onslow as somewhat poorly drained, and Johnston as
very poorly drained.
Johnston soil is on the New Hanover County Hydric Soils Ä list which means it is
possibly wetland area and subject to regulation under the Clean Water Act. Lynchburg
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 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
NC Department of Environmental Quality, Water Quality Division, 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.

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.

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.
