Arrington Bridge Road at its intersection with John Street in Goldsboro North Carolina (Figure 1), is the proposed Neuse buffer and nutrient offset restoration area currently known as the Wayne County Development Alliance Bank Parcel (Bank Parcel) The Bank Parcel easement will total approximately 64 41 acres of the +/ 132 89 acres in total tract area Proposed restoration activities within the Bank Parcel include a total of approximately 6 47 acres of Neuse buffer and another 57 94 acres of nutrient offset (Figure 2) The Bank Parcel will provide a total of approximately 131 698 778 pounds of nitrogen nutrient offset credit (2 273 02 pounds per acre) The Bank Parcel is comprised three (3) tracts of land (Wayne County Parcel Identification Numbers 2598449002 2598632250 and 2598543857) The Bank Parcel will be developed in two (2) phases Phase I and Phase II (Figure 2) Phase I consist of Parcel Number 2598449002 (+ 52 75 acres) and is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Arrington Bridge Road and John Street Phase II consists of Parcel Numbers 2598632250 (+ 73 11 acres) and 2598543857 (+ 7 03 acres) Parcel Number 2598632250 is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Arrington Bridge Road and John Street Parcel Number 2598543857 is located north of Parcel Number 2598449002 along the west side of John Street and is separated from Parcel Number 2598449002 by a railroad easement and a utility line easement A conservation easement will be recorded around the restoration areas within the overall Bank Parcel The remaining +/ 68 48 acres located on the three (3) parcels of land will not be subject to the proposed conservation easement The proposed Bank Parcel is located within the Neuse River Basin (8 digit USGS HUC 03020201) The Bank Parcel is located immediately adjacent to the west of 8 digit USGS HUC 03020202 In fact approximately 25 percent of the eastern section of Parcel Number 2598632250 drains into 8 digit USGS HUC 03020202 On December 1 2011 the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality (DWQ) rendered a determination as to the applicability of the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules (15ANCAC 02B 0233) for six (6) surface water features located on Parcel Numbers 2598449002 2598632250 and 2598543857 (Appendix C) Based on the determination features 02 03 04 and 05 were determined to be jurisdictional streams and are subject to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules The remaining features were determined to be drainage features and not subject to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules It should be noted that jurisdictional stream feature 03 drains into 8 digit USGS HUC 03020202 and does not drain into 8 digit USGS HUC 03020201 Therefore the Bank Parcel does not include jurisdictional stream feature 03 Stormwater runoff from the Bank Parcel drains into an unnamed tributary of the Neuse River (Stream Index #27 (56)) According to the N C Division of Water Quality Basinwide Information Management System (BIMS) the Neuse River is classified as Class C and NSW (Nutrient Sensitive Waters) in this location The C classification is for waters protected for uses such as secondary recreation fishing wildlife fish consumption aquatic life including propagation survival and maintenance of biological integrity and agriculture while the NSW designation is for Nutrient Sensitive Waters The purpose of this Bank Parcel is to improve water quality within the Neuse River watershed by providing off site mitigation for development (both existing and proposed) requiring stream buffer mitigation and nutrient offset credits The proposed Bank Parcel Service Area is the area contained within 8 digit USGS HUC 03020201 This Bank Parcel shall be established under the terms and conditions of the EBX Neuse Riparian Buffer Umbrella Mitigation Bank (Bank) made and entered into by EBX Neuse I LLC (EBX) acting as the Bank Sponsor and the North Carolina Department of

Characteristics Based upon review of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Southwest Goldsboro and Southeast Goldsboro, North Carolina Quadrangle the proposed Bank Parcel contains elevations ranging from f 65 feet to ± 70 feet and is relatively flat Topographic relief and surface drainage is generally southeast (Figure 3) The Bank Parcel is located within the Southeastern Plains Province of North Carolina specifically within the Southeastern Floodplains and Low Terraces ecoregion A review of the Ecoregions of North Carolina and South Carolina (Griffith et al 2002) shows the geology in the area of the property is comprised of alluvium and terrace deposits of sand clay and gravel and is associated with mayor river floodplains and low terraces The Soil Survey of Wayne County, North Carolina (Soil Conservation Service 1974) lists the soils within the property as from the Wickham Jones Association As stated in the soil survey these soils can be generally classified as well drained to somewhat poorly drained nearly level to gently sloping soils that have a friable sandy loam to clay loam subsoil located on terraces As described by the online USDA NRCS Official Soil Series Descriptions (OSD) the specific soils within the project area (Figure 4) are shown below in Table 1 MM 3 [4EcoEngneering Environmental Banc & Exchange LLC Ad an rrnc, n R M Adam compan, Wayne County

have been recently harvested Land located adjacent to the Bank Parcel is comprised of active agricultural fields which have historically cultivated corn and soybean crops There are areas along the unnamed tributaries and along Arrington Bridge Road which contain relic forest/shrub communities These fringe forest/shrub areas have been impacted by historical agricultural activities Species such as sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciva) red maple (Acer rubrum) tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulip fera) giant cane (Arundinaria gigantea) willow oak (Quercus phellos) water oak (Quercus nigra) were observed Small significant population of non native invasive species including privet (Ligustrum sinense) and multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) were also observed which are indicative of a disturbed forest community Since these fringe forest/shrub areas have been disturbed a reference forested community was examined to gain insight as to the type of forested community which would have been on the Bank Parcel if agricultural activities had not occurred One such reference forested community located approximately 0 7 miles west of the Bank Parcel was examined The reference forested community is generally characterized as a Basic Mesic Forest (Coastal Plain Subtype) according to the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NHP) classification system (Schafale and Weakley 1990) The canopy and understory is dominated by southern red oak (Quercus pagodifolra) willow oak water oak white oak (Quercus alba) sweetgum red maple tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipfera) red 4 ®Environmental Banc &

Plants and animals with Threatened or Endangered status are protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 (16 US 1531 et seq ) According to the U S Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) web page (http / /www fws ov /nc es /es /countyfr htmh accessed October 4 2011) there is one (1) endangered species (red cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis)) and nine (9) federal species of concern (American eel (Anguilla rostrata) Carolina madtom (Noturus furiosus) Pinewoods shiner (Lythrurus matutinus) Rafinesque s big eared bat (Corynorhinus rafinesquii) Southern hognose snake (Heterodon simus) Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masons) Yellow lance (Elliptio lanceolata) Cuthbert turtlehead (Chelone cuthbertii) and Pondspice (Litsea aestivalis)) potentially occurring in Wayne County The bald eagle (Haliaeeletus leucocephalus) is also listed as occurring in Wayne County and is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA) (16 US 668 668d) In addition the NC Natural Heritage Program ( NCNHP) website identifies another twenty (20) State listed species as endangered threatened significantly rare or of special concern also potentially occurring in the county A review of the NCNHP database of documented occurrences (http / /www ncnhp org/Pages/heritagedata html accessed October 4 2011) revealed the presence of the Chicken Turtle (Deirochelys reticularia) within a two (2) mile radius of the site EcoEngineering conducted field surveys on October 5 2011 by walking transects within the Bank Parcel area The objective of the field surveys was to determine the presence of federally Threatened or Endangered species within the Bank Parcel area There were no federally Threatened or Endangered species observed during the field surveys The work inherent in restoring riparian buffers does not result in habitat destruction or modification for the above listed species Therefore it is reasonable to conclude the proposed work will have No Effect on Threatened and Endangered species 2 4 Cultural Resources A review of the N C State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) HPOWEB GIS Service database (http //uis ncdcr gov/hpoweb/ accessed October 4 2011) was completed as part of the site due diligence According to their website HPOWEB has current locational data for all National Register listings most Study List entries and Determinations of Eligibility and surveyed rural properties for many counties There are no listings within the Bank Parcel Please note there are no properties listed on the HPOWEB GIS service that fall under the National Register the Study List or Determined Eligible classification within one mile of the restoration project though there are properties shown on the National Register within a two mile radius Since there are no database entries on the subject property it is reasonable to conclude the proposed restoration project will not have an adverse impact with regards to this issue 2 S Environmental Issues Preliminary data was obtained from Environmental Data Resources Inc (EDR) regarding the potential for on site or nearby sources of contamination EDR maintains an updated database of current and historical sources of contamination All storage tanks whether above ground or underground are identified as well as superfund sites landfills hazardous 0 5 [JEcoEngineenng Environmental Banc & Exchange LLC Ad rrne, h R M Adam C mpany I Wayne County Development Alliance Bank Parcel USGS HUC 03020201 Bank Parcel Development Package Wayne County North Carolina April 2012 waste sites and other potential hazards According to EDR records there is one small quantity generator within 0 24 miles southwest of the Bank Parcel one conditionally exempt small quantity generator within 0 24 miles southwest of the Bank Parcel one registered underground storage tank within 0 24 miles southwest of the Bank Parcel and four leaking underground storage tanks within 0 5 mile west of the Bank Parcel Soil and water contamination was noted with the four leaking underground storage tank listings and all incidences have been closed out with removal and remedial actions conducted for each tank The Bank Parcel is separated from the four listed leaking underground storage tanks by adjacent topographic gradients which grade away from the Bank Parcel It is believed the four listed leaking underground storage tanks are not impairments to the Bank Parcel due to separate topographic gradients and the close out and remedial actions associated with each tank 2 6 FEMA F000dplain I Floodway Mapping As shown in Figure 5 the entire Bank Parcel is located within the Federal Emergency Management Associations (FEMA s) designated floodplain associated with the Neuse River but outside of the mapped floodway Prior to implementing the restoration plan within the proposed Bank Parcel the Bank Sponsor will coordinate with the local community official responsible for development within the floodplain to ensure all local floodplain development ordinances have been met A floodplain development permit (if required) will be obtained by the Bank Sponsor prior to implementation of the restoration plan 3 0 Prouosed Neuse Buffer & Nutrient Offset Restoration Plan Cultivated lands located within 50 feet of jurisdictional stream features (measured from top of bank) as determined by DWQ (DWQ Buffer Determination Letter Appendix Q and that are outside forested areas within the Bank Parcel will be considered for Neuse buffer restoration Therefore cultivated land located 50 feet from jurisdictional stream features 02 04 and 05 will be considered for Neuse buffer restoration Cultivated lands located 50 feet to 200 feet from jurisdictional stream features and drainage features (measured from top of bank) that are outside forested areas within the Bank Parcel will be considered for nutrient offset restoration All areas will be ripped and scarified prior to vegetation planting activities The established microtopography on leveled surfaces will promote diffuse flow and surface water storage In addition subsurface hardpans will be eliminated to promote vegetation growth/survival and to increase groundwater recharge rates Existing grasses may be treated with herbicide to reduce competition with planted species Where necessary invasive species will also be treated with herbicide to ensure they do not become dominant or hinder the establishment growth and survival of planted vegetation It is important to note the Bank Sponsor may elect to use the initial 50 feet on each side of the stream bank as either Neuse buffer or nutrient offset restoration but not both The proposed riparian planting plan will be developed by integrating native plant species observed within the Bank Parcel area in addition to selected species known to inhabit Basic Mesic Forests (Coastal Plain Subtype) community type as described in Classification of the Natural Communities of North Carolina (Schafale and Weakley 1990) and procedures outlined in Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration (NCEEP 2004) to institute species diversity The restored riparian zone will be planted with bare root seedlings or containerized material Bare root seedlings or containerized material will be planted during the fall or early spring seasons Supplemental planting will be utilized until the required densities have been achieved and maintained for five years The planting plan for Neuse buffer and nutrient offset restoration areas will consist of individual tree species as listed in the Table 2 below The goal is to plant 436 to 681 trees per acre with IM id6 [aEcoEngineering Environmental Banc & Exchange LLC A rncJ nna M Adams mpa) i Wayne County Development Alliance

Martin Hovis with Environmental Banc & Exchange, LLC was present. The features are labeled as Features "01, 02, 03, 04, 05 & 06" on the attached map initialed by me on December 1, 2011. The project is located off Arrington Bridge Road, at its intersection with John Street in Goldsboro, North Carolina. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has determined that the surface water features labeled as 1102, 03, 04 & 05" on the attached map are jurisdictional streams and are subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule (15A NCAC 02B .0233). These streams and their associated buffers should be identified on any future plans for this property.
