    DISCLAIMER FOR PUBLIC-FACING HYDROLOGY (STREAMS & WATERBODIES) DATA

    June 16, 2022

    The Town of Chapel Hill Stormwater Management Division (TOCH-SWMD) provides these data for the purposes of research, education, environmental review, assessment, and project planning.  The use of TOCH-SWMD data should not be substituted for actual field surveys. Conditions on the ground should be verified before any land use decisions are made based on TOCH-SWMD data. 

    Hydrology (stream and waterbody) classifications are only valid for a period of five (5) years since the date of the last site visit.  If a stream or waterbody has not been visited within five years of the “verified date” a new site visit is needed. 

    Stream classifications are used to determine the applicability of the Town’s stream buffer regulations.  Wetlands data are incomplete and should not be used for jurisdictional determinations.

    TOCH-SWMD makes no warranties as to the completeness and accuracy of the data presented.  The accuracy and completeness of TOCH-SWMD data frequently depends on the date and purpose of the data.
