December 2018 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Dial Cordy and Associates Inc. (DCA) was contracted by the Town of Oak Island to monitor shorebird use of habitat along the oceanfront, Lockwood Folly Inlet shorelines, and Eastern Channel from March 2015 - August 2018. In accordance with their permit (NCDCM permit 21- 15 issued 13 February 2015 for the Eastern Channel dredging project), monitoring surveys for shorebird species were required to be performed during and after the construction of the Lockwood Folly River Habitat Restoration Project. These surveys were conducted to provide information on shorebirds, specifically piping plover and red knot habitat use within the project area. This monitoring was conducted to satisfy permit conditions associated with the federally listed species, piping plover (Charadrius melodus) and the piping plover Critical Habitat Unit NC-16 (Lockwood Folly Inlet) located along the western end of Oak Island (Appendix A). The plan included monitoring of piping plover, red knot, waterbirds, colonial waterbirds, and other shorebirds observed during (March - May 2015) and after construction (June 2015 - August 2018) of the proposed project. The piping plover was federally listed as endangered on 10 January 1986 in the Great Lakes watershed and threatened elsewhere within its range. This Endangered Species Act listing occurred primarily due to habitat destruction, predation, and harvest for the millinery trade. The protection provided under this listing reflects the perilous status of all piping plovers range-wide. Piping plover wintering critical habitat unit NC-16 (Lockwood Folly Inlet – Brunswick County) encompasses a portion of the Lockwood Folly inlet shoal/spit complex and extends from the end of West Beach Drive, west to mean lower low water (MLLW) at Lockwood Folly Inlet. There are three distinct population segments (DPS) of piping plover and all three potentially utilize North Carolina for a portion of their migration. The red knot was federally listed as a threatened species in the fall of 2014. During the 19th century, large numbers of red knot were shot during their migration and used as a food source causing a substantial dip in population. It is hypothesized that the current status of the red knot is due to habitat degradation and removal of prey resources from anthropogenic activities. These birds have an extensive range and one of the longest migrations of any bird, which requires nutrient rich foods to make their circumpolar travels. The red knot migration coincides with horseshoe crab spawning in the Delaware Bay and the birds utilize this event as a means for refueling; however, in recent decades, commercial harvesting of horseshoe crabs has substantially reduced standing stock and available eggs during spawning. Since 2000, it has become rare to see flocks of red knots above 100 individuals. Phase I of the Lockwood Folly River Habitat Restoration Project consisted of dredging a new 100-foot wide channel within Eastern Channel (between Oak Island and Sheep Island) to a depth of -3 to -15 feet (ft) and placing approximately 201,800 cubic yards (cy) of beach- compatible material on the western beaches of Oak Island (Figure 1). Approximately 3.49 acres of intertidal shoals above the MLLW were dredged. Dredging of Eastern Channel was performed by a cutterhead dredge pipeline dredge and conveyed to the beach placement areas via a 24-inch reinforced concrete pipeline, existing within the Town of Oak Island's easement. Eastern Channel Shorebird Monitoring Report Dial Cordy and Associates Inc. December 2018 2 Figure 1. Project Area Dredging in Eastern Channel and Beach Sand Placement Locations 2.0 OBSERVATION METHODS AND SURVEY AREA Shorebird observations were conducted with the use of a spotting scope (Vortex Viper HD 15- 45x65) and binoculars (Vortex Diamondback 10x42) to identify nesting, roosting, foraging, territory establishment, courtship, and copulating activities within the survey areas (Figure 2). Observations of breeding sites and nesting pair counts were included as part of the documentation, as well as observations and recording of eggs, chicks and fledged individuals. A field data form was used for documenting bird species use and habitat dependence in the monitored survey areas. The number of species and their associated activities were accounted for in each of the surveyed habitats. A separate form was used for each survey area (Survey Areas 1 – 5) in conjunction with each survey event (i.e., five forms were completed for each survey event). The following were also applied: Eastern Channel Shorebird Monitoring Report Dial Cordy and Associates Inc. December 2018 3 Figure 2. Shorebird Monitoring Survey Locations in the Lockwood Folly Inlet Complex  Species flying overhead of a surveyed habitat were reported as flying;  Birds observed as diving or floating in the nearshore were reported as utilizing surf zone habitat;  Banding combinations identified on species of shorebirds and colonial waterbirds, including piping plovers, were recorded in the notes column to assist in identifying population migration patterns;  Species observations along the dry beach habitat of the inlet shorelines will extend up to the landward edge of the frontal dune or edge of vegetation, whichever comes first; and  Bird species observed, but not currently listed as a species were identified and accounted for under “Other Species.” Field observations were conducted during daylight hours (Table 1). Surveys primarily occurred within a few hours of high tide for each event. During construction (March - May 2015), surveys were conducted weekly. Post-construction monitoring (June 2015 - August 2018) occurred bimonthly (twice per month). If surveys were missed due to large stochastic events, they were conducted as soon as conditions allowed.

Along narrow stretches of the beach, a single line was walked to adequately cover the habitat. In locations where the beach expands into wider flats, a zigzag pattern was used to cover more area and better observe birds utilizing these locations. Mixed flocks of roosting shorebirds were surveyed so that all species were counted to the best of the observer’s ability. Disturbances such as humans, dogs, and natural events can make identifying and counting shorebirds difficult. When practical, video and/or photos of birds were taken for more accurate counts. Surveys were not conducted during inclement weather conditions (high winds > 20 miles per hour, heavy rains, and/or below freezing conditions). All surveys were conducted on foot. The following information was collected, mapped, and reported for each survey area and event:  Date, location, time of day, weather, and tide cycle when survey was conducted; Eastern Channel Shorebird Monitoring Report Dial Cordy and Associates Inc. December 2018 5  Latitude and longitude of observed piping plover and red knot locations (decimal degrees);  Any color bands observed on piping plovers, red knots, or other birds;  Behavior (e.g., foraging, roosting, preening, bathing, flying, aggression, walking, courtship, copulation);  Landscape features(s) where birds are located (e.g., inlet spit, tidal creeks, shoals, lagoon shoreline);  Habitat feature(s) used by birds when observed (e.g., intertidal, fresh wrack, old wrack, dune, mid-beach, vegetation);  Substrata used by birds (e.g., sand, mud/sand, mud, algal mat); and  The amount and type of recreational use (e.g., people, dogs on or off leash, vehicles, boats). 3.0 SURVEY RESULTS AND DISCUSSION This study was specifically intended to identify piping plover and red knot utilization of the Lockwood Folly Inlet complex. During four surveys from March 2015 - August 2018, six piping plovers were observed utilizing this inlet complex. These plovers were observed feeding in the intertidal zone along Eastern Channel and resting in the dry beach along the Oak Island inlet shoreline (Table 2). Four of the six piping plovers were observed during construction and two post-construction. Five red knots were observed feeding in the intertidal zone along the Oak Island inlet shoreline and resting in the dry beach along the Oak Island inlet shoreline (Table 2). Of these five, four were observed during construction. Bird species observed during the surveys are listed in Table 3 and occurrences notated on daily observations within a spreadsheet in Appendix B.

Comparisons of during construction and post construction should take into account the time scale differences of the surveys. Construction for deepening of the Eastern Channel and sand placement on Oak Island occurred from March 2015 - May 2015 and during this time surveys were conducted four times per month. Shorebird monitoring continued after construction bi-monthly (twice per month) until August 2018. All birds observed during surveys were recorded; however, shorebird species exhibited the most potential for detecting changes in behavior and occurrence due to beach placement of sand. The shorebird species typically associated with shoreline habitats observed during the surveys and colonial water birds are denoted by an asterisk in Table 2. The dominant shorebirds observed during the survey based on frequency of occurrence and abundance included black skimmer, royal tern, brown pelican, Forster’s tern, and semipalmated plover during construction and brown pelican, black skimmer, royal tern, double-crested cormorant, and laughing gull over the three years after construction. Of the 58 species of shorebirds colonial water birds observed, 42 occurred during construction and 57 following construction. This would be expected given the short construction period which occurred during the spring and summer transition and long three year post-construction period. During construction, 204 American oystercatchers were observed at the Lockwood Folly inlet. Post construction abundance decreased to 189 observations over three years. Black skimmers were abundant for the entire project with 1,987 observed during construction and 8,367 observed after construction. Brown pelicans were also abundant during the project with 680 observed during construction and 7,037 observed post construction. Ring-billed gulls were observed 227 times during construction and 2,678 times post construction. Royal terns were abundant with 1,899 observations during construction and 4,131 observations post construction. 183 sanderlings were observed during construction and 1,462 were observed post construction. Semipalmated plovers were very abundant throughout the project with 1,103 observed during construction and 2,959 observed post construction. Eastern Channel Shorebird Monitoring Report Dial Cordy and Associates Inc. December 2018 9 Further analysis of the data is not possible given the lack of pre-construction bird survey data and due to the inability to compare occurrences between a short construction period and a very long post construction time frame. While both red knots and piping plovers were observed during construction, they were only rarely seen during the post-construction period. While it is doubtful the newly nourished beach affected the reoccurrence of these two species, it is interesting to note that neither species were observed during the last two years of the surveys.

Your January 8,2075 request for formal consultation was received on the same date. These biological and conference opinions are based on information provided by the following sources, along with other information: January 8,2015 request for initiation of formal consultation The November 2014 draft Biological Assessment Minutes and meeting notes from meetings or phone calls dated August 27,2014; October 24,2014; November 20,2014; November 26,2014; December 1,2,5,19, and,29,2014: and Januarv 8. 2015. A complete administrative record of this consultation is on file at the Service's Raleigh Field Office. The Service has assigned Log number 04EN2000-20 1 5-F-0 1 42 to thrs consultation. o o a z As discussed in our letter dated January g,2015, the Service concurs with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) determination of may affect, not likely to adversely affect (MANLAA) for the red knot, wood stork, seabeach arnaranth, West Indian manatee and the loggerhead, leatherback, green, Kemp's ridley, and hawksbill sea turtles (Table 1). Concurrence with the determinations for sea turtles, red knot, seabeach amararfih, and West Indian manatee is based upon the timing of the project and the proposed conservation measures. It is our understanding that the timing of the initial project construction will include dredging the beach-compatible sand portions of Eastern channel and placing the material on the beach within the window of November 16 to April 30. The Service also concurs with the Corps determination that the project is not likely to adversely modify critical habitat for loggerhead sea turtles. Please see our January 9,2015 letter for more information on these species and recommended permit conditions. Table 1.

BIOLOGICAL OPINION A biological opinion is the document that states the opinion of the Service as to whether a federal action is likely to jeopardize the continued existence of listed species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of designated critical habitat. This biological opinion addresses piping plover (Charadrius melodus melodus) and piping plover designated critical habitat, and evaluates the effects of the proposed action, interrelated and interdependent actions, and cumulative effects relative to the status of the species and the status of the critical habitat to arrive at a Service opinion that the proposed action is or isn't likely to jeopardize species or adversely modify critical habitat. Jeopardize the continued existence of means to engage in an action that reasonably would be expected, directly or indirectly, to reduce appreciably the likelihood of both the survival and recovery of a listed species in the wild by reducing the reproduction, numbers, or distribution of that species. The courls have vacated our regulatory definition for destruction or adverse modification of designated uitical habitat (50 CFR 402.02) and the Service has not yet promulgated a new regulatory definition; therefore, this biological opinion does not rely on the regulatory definition. Instead, we have relied upon the statutory provisions of the ESA to complete our analysis with respect to critical habitat. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED ACTION Location and Project Description The project is in and around the vicinity of Lockwoods Folly Inlet, extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), including Eastern Channel and the beachfront on Oak Island, in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The purpose of the proposed project is to improve navigation and flushing in Eastern Channel, protect properties located along the western end of Oak Island from erosion, and nourish portions of Oak Island. The Town of Oak Island proposes to dredge Eastern Channel and dispose of the beach- compatible portion of the dredged material on the western oceanfront shoreline of Oak Island. The non-compatible material will be placed within an existing confined disposal area on Horse Island (Disposal Area 284). The Service has described the Action Area to include Eastem Channel, Lockwoods Folly Inlet, the shoreline of Oak Island, and the adjacent Atlantic Ocean, Brunswick County, North Carolina (Figure 1). Land ownership within the Action Area is public and private, and land use includes conservation, recreational. and residential activities. I. A. Figure 1.. Action Area B.Project Design The project consists of dredging a new 100-foot wide channel within Eastern Channel (between Oak Island and Sheep Island) to a depth of -3 to - 1 1 feet and placing approximately 201 ,800 cubic yards (cy) of beach-compatible material on the western beaches of Oak Island. Approximately 3.49 acres of intertidal shoals above MLLW will be dredged. Dredging of Eastem Channel will be performed by a cutterhead dredge pipeline dredge and conveyed to the beach placement areas via a24-inchreinforced concrete pipeline, existing within the Town of Oak Island's easement. The beach frll will be placed along two separate reaches. Reach 1 is proposed to be 2,900lf, while Reach 2 is proposed to be 1,500 lf, for a total of 4,400If of fill. The beach fill will impact a total of 22.4 acres of intertidal and dry beach area. The beach fiIl will include a flat berm at an elevation of 7.0 NAVD, extending seaward to a depth of approximately -7 to -8 ft NAVD, on a 1:20 slope. A 2O-foot wide dune with a crest elevation of 10.0 ft NAVD will be restored in front of four properties that installed sandbags during 2014 (6623,662I,6617, and 6615 West Beach Drive, Oak Island, NC). There will be a250lf taper section at the beginning and end of each reach. Dredging will likely be conducted from west to east. Likewise, beach filIwill be conducted from west to east, and will involve movement of heavy equipment and pipe along the beaches. Once a section is completed, pipe and heavy equipment will be shifted to a new section and the process repeated. Land-based equipment will be brought to the site over public roads, and will enter the beach at existing beach access points along the western end of Oak Island. Existing dunes and vegetation on the beach will be avoided. This BO addresses impacts to the piping plover (Charadrius melodus), a Federally-listed species under the purview of the Service occurring in the Action Area The Action Area includes Eastern Channel, Lockwoods Folly Inlet, and approximately 4,400 lf (22.4 acre) of beach habitats on Oak Island. Approximately 3.49 acres of piping plover critical habitat in Eastern Channel will be dredged during the initial construction. The Action Area for direct impacts includes those sections of Eastem Channel, Lockwoods Folly Inlet, and Oak Island where excavation, sediment disposal, and other earthen manipulation will occur. The Action Area for indirect impacts, however, is much larger. Because piping plovers are highly mobile species, animals influenced by direct project impacts may move great distances from the actual project site. The range of these movements produced by the project constitutes the Action Area for indirect impacts; for the pu{poses of this opinion it will be the entire length of Oak Island and Holden Beach for piping plovers. C. Project Timing and Duration The applicant intends to complete initial construction between November 16 and April29. Initial construction is expected to last 30 to 60 days. Dredging of the beach-compatible portion of the channel, and placement of the sand on the beach is proposed to be conducted before April 30. Maintenance dredging of Eastern Channel portions nearest to Lockwoods Folly Inlet is expected every two to six years, while maintenance dredging of the other portions of Eastern Channel is expected every six to ten years. D. Conservation Measures To reduce the potential impacts of the proposed project on Federally-listed species, the Applicant has proposed the following Conservation Measures: o The applicant proposes to conduct dredging and beneficial reuse between 15 November and 1 May. o Beach filI will be conducted from west to east, so that areas closer to piping plover critical habitat are filled earlier in the winter. o The applicant proposes to comply with the State of North Carolina Technical Standards for Beach fillProjects (15ANCAC 07H .0312). o The applicant proposes escarpment monitoring and remedial grading for escarpments. il. PIPING PLOVER A. Status of the Species/Critical Habitat 1) Species/critical habitat description Listing: On January 10, 1986, the piping plover was listed as endangered in the Great Lakes watershed and threatened elsewhere within its range, including migratory routes outside of the Great Lakes watershed and wintering grounds (Service 1985). Piping plovers were listed principally because of habitat destruction and degradation, predation, and human disturbance. Protection of the species under the Act reflects the species' precarious status range-wide. Three separate breeding populations have been identified, each with its own recovery criteria: the northem Great Plains (threatened), the Great Lakes (endangered), and the Atlantic Coast (threatened). Piping plovers that breed on the Atlantic Coast of the U.S. and Canada belong to the subspecies C. m. melodus. The second subspecies, C. m. circumcinctus, is comprised of two 10 Distinct Population Segments (DPSs). One DPS breeds on the Northem Great Plains of the U.S. and Canada, while the other breeds on the Great Lakes. Each of these three entities is demographically independent. The Piping plover winters in coastal areas of the U.S. from North Carolina to Texas, and along the coast of eastern Mexico and on Caribbean islands from Barbados to Cuba and the Bahamas (Haig and Elliott-Smith 2004) (Figure 2). Figure 2. Distribution and range of piping plovers (base map from Haig and Elliott-Smith 2004). Conceptual presentation of subspecies and DPS ranges are not intended to convey precise boundaries. ,rtlrrl ( ;ri'il1 lt'lrrns I )l:'S {r' C lr. lrt,/,rjlr '..\lhnlr\ stlhsl\'! l! s I \ Piping plovers in the Action Area may include individuals from all three breeding populations. Piping plover subspecies are phenotypically indistinguishable, and most studies in the nonbreeding range report results without regard to breeding origin. Although a2012 analysis shows strong pattems in the wintering distribution of piping plovers from different breeding populations (Gratto-Trevor et al.2012), partitioning is not complete and major information gaps persist. :1 _t <r'..... i f:'ffi I1 l1 North Carolina is the only state where the piping plover's breeding and wintering ranges overlap and the birds are present year-round. Piping plovers nest above the high tide line on coastal beaches; on sand flats at the ends ofsand spits and barrier islands; on gently sloping foredunes; in blowout areas behind primary dunes (overwashes); in sparsely vegetated dunes; and in overwash areas cut into or between dunes. The species requires broad, open, sand flats for feeding, and undisturbed flats with low dunes and sparse dune grasses for nesting. Piping plovers from the federally endangered Great Lakes population as well birds from the threatened populations of the Atlantic Coast and Northem Great Plains overwinter on North Carolina beaches. Piping plovers arrive on their breeding grounds in late March or early April. Following establishment of nesting territories and courtship rituals, the pair forms a depression in the sand, where the female lays her eggs. By early September both adults and young depart for their wintering areas. Designated qitical habitat: The Service has designated critical habitat for the piping plover on three occasions. Two of these designations protected different piping plover breeding populations. Critical habitat for the Great Lakes breeding population was designated May 7, 2001 (66 Federal Register [FR] 22938; USFWS 2001a), and critical habitat for the northern Great Plains breeding population was designated September 11, 2002 (67 FR 57637; USFWS 2002). The Service designated critical habitat for wintering piping plovers on July I0,2001 (66 FR 36038; USFWS 2001b). Wintering piping plovers may include individuals from the Great Lakes and northem Great Plains breeding populations as well as birds that nest along the Atlantic Coast. The three separate designations of piping plover critical habitat demonstrate diversity of primary constituent elements (PCEs) between the two breeding populations as well as diversity of PCEs between breeding and wintering populations. The Action Area is located within piping plover Critical Habitat Unit NC-16 (Lockwood Folly Inlet - Brunswick County). This 90- acre unit is located entirely on Oak Island and is privately- owned. The unit extends from the end of West Beach Drive, west to MLLW at Lockwood Folly Inlet, including emergent sand bars south and adjacent to the island. This unit includes land from MLLW on the Atlantic Ocean across to MLLW adjacent to the Eastern Channel and the Intraco astal Waterway. The PCEs essential for the conservation of wintering piping plovers are those habitat components that support foraging, roosting, and sheltering and the physical features necessary for maintaining the natural processes that support these habitat components. The PCEs include intertidal beaches and flats (between annual low tide and annual high tide) and associated dune systems and flats above annual high tide. Important components of intertidal flats include sand and/or mud flats with no or very sparse emergent vegetation. In some cases, these flats may be covered or partially covered by a mat of blue-green algae. Adjacent non-or sparsely vegetated t2 sand, mud, or algal flats above high tide are also important, especially for roosting piping plovers, and are PCEs of piping plover wintering habitat. Such sites may have debris, detritus (decaying organic matter), or micro-topographic relief (less than 50 cm above substrate surface) offering refuge from high winds and cold weather. Important components of the beach/dune ecosystem include surfcast algae, sparsely vegetated backbeach and salterns (beach area above mean high tide seaward of the permanent dune line, or in cases where no dunes exist, seaward of a delineating feature such as a vegetation line, structure, or road), spits, and washover areas. Washover areas are broad, unvegetated zones, with little or no topographic relief, that are formed and maintained by the action of hurricanes, storm surge, or other extreme wave action. Critical habitat does not include existing developed sites consisting of buildings, marinas, paved areas, boat ramps, exposed oil and gas pipelines and similar structures. Only those areas containing these PCEs within the desisnated boundaries are considered critical habitat. The critical habitat in the project area has been relatively undisturbed since designation in 2001. It is unclear whether the Corps' dredging of Lockwoods Folly Inlet and/or the AIWW has resulted in impacts to the critical habitat unit. Although various planning efforts have proposed dredging or nourishment within the critical habitat unit over the past decade, to the Service's knowledge, no destruction of critical habitat has occurred. As is expected in a dynamic inlet shoreline area,natural coastal processes have altered the location and configuration ofthe intertidal shoals and other PCEs within the unit. However, it does not appear that the general extent of critical habitat has been affected. 2)Life history The piping plover is a small, pale sand-colored shorebird, about seven inches long with a wingspan of about 15 inches (Palmer 1967). Cryptic coloration is a primary defense mechanism for piping plovers where nests, adults, and chicks all blend in with their typical beach surroundings. Piping plovers live an average of 5 years, although studies have documented birds as old as I I (Wilcox 1959) and 15 years. Plovers are known to begin breeding as early as one year of age (Maclvor l990;Haig 1992); however, the percentage of birds that breed in their first adult year is unknown. Piping plover breeding activity begins in mid-March when birds begin returning to their nesting areas (Coutu etal.1990; Cross 1990; Goldin et al. 1990; Maclvor 1990; Hake lgg3). Piping plovers generally fledge only a single brood per season, but may re-nest several times if previous nests are lost. The reduction in suitable nesting habitat due to a number of factors is a major threat to the species, likely limiting reproductive success and future recruitment into the population (USFWS 2009). 13 Plovers depart their breeding grounds for their wintering grounds between July and late August, but southward migration extends through November. More information about the three breeding populations of piping plovers can be found in the following documents: a. Piping Plover, Atlantic Coast Population:1996 Revised Recovery Plan (USFWS 1996a); b. 2009 Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation (usFWS 2009); c. 2003 Recovery Plan for the Great Lakes Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus) (USFWS 2003); d. Questions and Answers about the Northern Great Plains Population of Piping Plover (usFws 2002). North Carolina is one of the only states in which piping plovers may be found year-round. Piping plovers migrate through and winter in coastal areas of the U.S. from North Carolina to Texas and in portions of Mexico and the Caribbean. Data based on four rangewide mid-winter (late January to early February) population surveys, conducted at S-year intervals starting in 1991, show that total numbers have fluctuated over time, with some areas experiencing increases and others decreases. Regional and local fluctuations may reflect the quantity and quality of suitable foraging and roostinghabitat, which vary over time in response to natural coastal formation processes as well as anthropogenic habitat changes (e.g., inlet relocation, dredging of shoals and spits). Fluctuations may also represent localized weather conditions (especially wind) during surveys, or unequal survey coverage. Changes in wintering numbers may also be influenced by growth or decline in the particular breeding populations that concentrate their wintering distribution in a given area. Gratto-Trevor et al. (2009) found strong patterns (but no exclusive partitioning) in winter distribution of uniquely banded piping plovers from four breeding populations. All eastem Canada and 94 percent of Great Lakes birds wintered from North Carolina to southwest Florida. However, eastern Canadabirds were more heavily concentrated in North Carolina, and a larger proportion of Great Lakes piping plovers were found in South Carolina and Georgia. Northern Great Plains populations were primarily seen farther west and south, especially on the Texas Guif Coast. Breeding and wintering plovers feed on exposed wet sand in swash zones; intertidal ocean beach; wrack lines; washover passes; mud, sand, and algal flats; and shorelines of streams, ephemeral ponds, lagoons, and salt marshes by probing for invertebrates at or just below the surface (Coutu et al. 1990; USFWS I996a). They use beaches adjacent to foraging areas for roosting and preening. Small sand dunes, debris, and sparse vegetation within adjacent beaches provide shelter from wind and extreme temperatures. Behavioral observations of piping plovers on the I4 I wintering grounds suggest that they spend the majority of their time foraging and roosting Q.{icholls and Baldassarre 1990; Drake 1999a;1999b, Maddock et al. 2009). Studies have shown that the relative importance of various feeding habitat types may vary by site (Gibbs 1986; Coutu et al. 1990; McConnaughey et al. 1990; Loegering 1992; GoIdin 1993; Hoopes 1993). Feeding activities may occur during all hours of the day and night (Staine and Burger 1994; Zonick 1997), and at all stages in the tidal cycle (Goldin 1993; Hoopes 1993). Wintering plovers primarily feed on invertebrates such as polychaete marine worms, various crustaceans, fly larvae, beetles, and occasionally bivalve mollusks found on top of the soil or just beneath the surface (Bent 7929; Cairns 1977; Nicholls 1989; Zontck and Ryan 1996). Piping plovers exhibit a high degree of intra- and interannual wintering site fidelity Q.,licholls and Baldassarre 1990;Drake et al. 200l;Noel and Chandler 2005; Stucker and Cuthbert2006), Howevet, local movements during winter are more common. In South Carolina, Maddock et al. (2009) documented many cross-inlet movements by wintering banded piping plovers as well as occasional movements of up to 1 1 .2 miles by approximately 10 percent of the banded population. Larger movements within South Carolina were seen during fall and spring migration. Atlantic Coast plovers nest on coastal beaches, sand flats at the ends of sand spits and barrier islands, gently-sloped foredunes, sparsely-vegetated dunes, and washover areas cut into or between dunes. Plovers arrive on the breeding grounds from mid-March through mid-May and remain for three to four months per year; the Atlantic Coast plover breeding activities begin'in March in North Carolina with courtship and territorial establishment (Coutu et al. 1990; McConnaughey et al. 1990). Egg-laying begins around mid-April with nesting and brood rearing activities continuing through July. They lay three to four eggs in shallow scraped depressions lined with light colored pebbles and shell fragments. The eggs are well camouflaged and blend extremely well with their surroundings. Both sexes incubate the eggs which hatch within 30 days, and both sexes feed the young until they can fly. The fledgling period, the time between the hatching of the chicks and the point at which they can fly, generally lasts 25 to 35 days, Atlantic Coast and Florida studies highlighted the importance of inlets for nonbreeding and breeding piping plovers. Almost 90 percent of roosting piping plovers at ten coastal sites in southwest Florida were on inlet shorelines (Lott et aI.2009b). Piping plovers were among seven shorebird species found more often than expected (p : 0.0004; Wilcoxon Test Scores) at inlet locations versus non-inlet locations in an evaluation of 361 International Shorebird Survey sites from North Carolina to Florida (Harrington 2008). 15 3)Population dynamics The International Piping Plover Breeding Census is conducted throughout the breeding grounds every 5 years by the Great LakesA{orthern Great Plains Recovery Team of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The census is the largest known, complete avian species census. It is designed to determine species abundance and distribution throughout its annual cycle. The last survey in 2006 documented 3,497 breeding pairs, with a total of 8,065 birds throughout Canada and the U.S. (Elliot-Smith et al.2009). A more recent 2010 Atlantic Coast breeding piping plover population estimate was 1,J82 pairs, which was more than double the 1986 estimate of 790 pairs. This was determined to be a net increase of 86 percent between 1989 and 2010 (Service 201 1). The 2006 International Piping Plover Census surveys documented 84 wintering piping plovers at 39 sites along approximately 344 km of North Carolina shoreline, and 87 breeding plovers at 29 sites along 338 km of shoreline (Elliott-Smith et aI.2009). Midwinter suveys may underestimate the abundance of nonbreeding piping plovers using a site or region during other months. In late September 2001,104 piping plovers were counted at the south end of Ocracoke Island, North Carolina (National Park Service2007), where none were seen during the2006 International Piping Plover Winter Census (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). Local movements of non- breeding piping plovers and number of surveyor visits to the site may also affect abundance estimates (Maddock etal.2009; Cohen 2009). The most consistent finding in the various population viability analyses conducted for piping plovers (Ryan etaI.1993; Melvin and Gibbs 7996; Plissner and Haig 2000; Wemmer etaI.200l; Larson etaL2002; Amirault etaL.2005; Calvert etaL.2006; Brault 2007) indicates even small declines in adult and juvenile survival rates will cause increases in extinction risk. A banding study conducted between 1998 and 2004 inAtlantic Canada concluded lower return rates of juvenile (first year) birds to the breeding grounds than was documented for Massachusetts (Melvin and Gibbs 1996), Maryland (Loegering 1992), and Virginia (Cross 1996) breeding populations in the mid-1980s and very early 1990s. This is consistent with failure of the Atlantic Canadapopulation to increase in abundance despite high productivity (relative to other breeding populations) and extremely low rates of dispersal to the U.S. over the last 15 plus years (Amirault et al. 2005). This suggests maximizing productivity does not ensure population increases. However, other studies suggest that survivability is good at wintering sites (Drake et al.2001). Please see the Piping Plover 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation for additional information on survival rates at wintering habitats (USFWS 2009). In 2001 ,2,389 piping plovers were located during a winter census, accounting for only 40 percent of the known breeding birds recorded during a breeding census (Ferland and Haig 2002). About 89 percent of birds that are known to winter in the U.S. do so along the Gulf Coast (Texas to Florida), while 8 percent winter along the Atlantic Coast (North Carolina to Florida). I6 The status of piping plovers on winter and migration grounds is difficult to assess, but threats to piping plover habitat used during winter and migration identified by the Service during its designation of critical habitat continue to affect the species. Unregulated motorized and pedestrian recreational use, inlet and shoreline stabilization projects, beach maintenance and nourishment, and pollution affect most winter and migration areas. Conservation efforts at some locations have likely resulted in the enhancement of wintering habitat. Northem Great Plains Population The Northern Great Plains plover breeds from Alberta to Manitoba, Canada and south to Nebraska; although some nesting has occurred in Oklahoma (Boyd 1991). Currently the most westerly breeding piping plovers in the United States occur in Montana and Colorado. The decline of piping plovers on rivers in the Northern Great Plains has been largely attributed to the loss ofsandbar island habitat and forage base due to dam construction and operation. Nesting occurs on sand flats or bare shorelines of rivers and lakes, including sandbar islands in the upper Missouri River system, and patches of sand, gravel, or pebbly-mud on the alkali lakes of the northem Great Plains. Plovers do nest on shorelines of reservoirs created by the dams, but reproductive success is often low and reservoir habitat is not available in many years due to high water levels or vegetation. Dams operated with steady constant flows allow vegetation to grow on potential nesting islands, making these sites unsuitable for nesting. Population declines in alkali wetlands are attributed to wetland drainage, contaminants, and predation. The Northem Great Plains population is geographically widespread, with many birds in very remote places, especially in the U.S. and Canadian alkali lakes. Thus, determining the number of birds or even identifying a clear trend in the population is a difficult task. The International Piping Plover Census (IPPC) was designed, in part, to help deal with this problem by instigating alarge effort every five years in which an attempt is made to survey every area with known or potential piping plover breeding habitat during a two-week window (i.e., the first two weeks of June). The relatively short window is designed to minimize double counting if birds move from one area to another. The 1988 recovery plan uses the numbers from the IPPC as a major criterion for delisting, as does the 2006 Canadian Recovery Plan (Environment Canada2006). Participation in the IPPC has been excellent on the Northem Great Plains, with a tremendous effort put forth to attempt to survey areas during the census window (Elliot-Smith et al. 2009). The large areato be surveyed and sparse human population in the Northern Great Plains make annual surveys of the entire area impractical, so the IPPC provides an appropriate tool for helping to determine the population trend. Many areas are only surveyed during the IPPC years. Figure 3 shows the number of adult plovers in the Northem Great Plains (U.S. and Canada) for the four International Censuses. The IPPC shows that the U.S. population decreased between I7 I99l and 1996, then increased in 2001 and2006. The Canadian population showed the reverse trend for the first three censuses, increasing slightly as the U.S. population decreased, and then decreasing in 2001. Combined, the IPPC numbers suggest that the population declined from 1991 through 2001, then increased almost 58% between 2001 and2006 (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). al-o o o_ o)c ,4 o_ =:fE o Lo -o E =z 5000 4500 4000 3500 3000 2500 2000 1 500 1 000 500 0 U.S. & Canada Combined r ! -PrairieCanada { - U.S. Northern Great Plainslnternational Census Year Figure 3. The number of adults reported for the U.S. and CanadaNorthern Great Plains during the International Censuses compared with the U.S. recovery goal. The increase in 2006 is likely due in large part to a multi-year drought across the much of the region starting in 2001 that exposed thousands of acres of nesting habitat. The USACE ran low flows on the riverine stretches of the Missouri River for most of the years between censuses, allowing more habitat to be exposed and resulting in relatively high fledge ratios (USACE 2008a). The USACE also began to construct habitat using mechanical means (dredging sand from the riverbed) on the Missouri River in2004, providing some new nesting and foraging habitat. The drought also caused reservoir levels to drop on many reservoirs throughout the Northem Great Plains (e.g. Missouri River Reservoirs O{D, SD), Lake McConaughey (NE)), providing shoreline habitat. The population increase may also be partially due to more intensive management activities on the alkali lakes, with increased management actions to improve habitat and reduce predation pressures. While the IPPC provides an index to the piping plover population, the design does not always 18 provide sufficient information to understand the population's dynamics. The five-year time interval between IPPC efforts may be too long to allow managers to get aclear picture of what the short-term population trends are and to respond accordingly if needed. As noted above, the first three IPPCs (7991,1996, and 2001) showed a declining population, while the fourth (2006) indicated a drarnatic population rebound of almost 58% for the combined U.S. and Canada Northem Great Plains population between 2001 and 2006. The preliminary results for 2011 indicate a similar grand population total as 2006, but a declining population in the United States. The larger overall population total in 20ll can be attributed to the larger numbers of plovers observed in the Bahamas. With only five data points over 20 years, it is impossible to determine if and to what extent the data reflects areal population trend versus error(s) in the 2011 census counts andlor a previous IPPC. The 2006 IPPC included a detectability component, in which a number of pre-selected sites were visited twice by the same observer(s) during the two-week window to get an estimate of error rate. This study found an approximately 76Yo detectability rate through the entire breeding area, with a range of between 39o/o to 78Yo detectability among habitat types in the Northem Great Plains. The results from the IPPC have been slow to be released, adding to the time lag between data collection and possible management response. Great Lakes Population The Great Lakes plovers once nested on Great Lakes beaches in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Ontario. Great Lakes piping plovers nest on wide, flat, open, sandy or cobble shoreline with very little grass or other vegetation. Reproduction is adversely affected by human disturbance of nesting areas and predation by foxes, gulls, crows and other avian species. Shoreline development, such as the construction of marinas, breakwaters, and other navigation structures, has adversely affected nesting and brood rearing. The Recovery Plan (USFWS 2003) sets a population goal of at least 150 pairs (300 individuals), for at least 5 consecutive years, with at least 100 breeding pairs (200 individuals) in Michigan and 50 breeding pairs (100 individuals) distributed among sites in other Great Lakes states. The Great Lakes piping plover population, which has been traditionally represented as the number of breeding pairs, has increased since the completion of the recovery plan in 2003 (Cuthbert and Roche 2007 ; 2006; Westbrock et aI. 2005; Stucker and Cuthbert 2004; Stucker et aL.2003). The Great Lakes piping plover recovery plan documents the 2002 population at 51 breeding pairs (USFWS 2003). The 2008 census found 63 breeding pairs, an increase of approximately 23o/o. Of these, 53 pairs were found nesting in Michigan, while 10 were found outside the state, including six pairs in Wisconsin and four in Ontario, Canada. The 53 nesting pairs in Michigan represent approximately 50o/o of the recovery criterion. The 10 breeding pairs 19 outside Michigan in the Great Lakes basin, represents 20o/o of lhe goal, albeit the number of breeding pairs outside Michigan has continued to increase over the past five years. The single breeding pair discovered in 2007 inthe Great Lakes region of Canada represented the first confirmed piping plover nest there in over 30 years, and in 2008 the number of nesting pairs further increased to four. In addition, the number of non-nesting individuals has increased annually since 2003. Between 2003-2008 an annual average of approximately 26 non-nesting piping plovers were observed, basedonlimiteddatafrom2003,2006,2007,and2008. Althoughtherewassomefluctuationin the total population between 2002-2008, the overall increase from 51 to 63 pairs combined with the increased observance of non-breeding individuals indicates the population is increasing. (Figure 4). An n uaf Ab u ndance 2001 -2OOg Year Figure 4. Annual Abundance Estimates for Great Lakes Piping Plovers (2003-2008). Atlantic Coast Population The Atlantic Coast piping plover breeds on coastal beaches from Newfoundland and southeastern Quebec to North Carolina. Historical population trends for the Atlantic Coast piping plover have been reconstructed from scattered, largely qualitative records. Nineteenth- century naturalists, such as Audubon and Wilson, described the piping plover as a common summer resident on Atlantic Coast beaches (Haig and Oring 1987). However, by the beginning *l ,o a{ slol 30rrl 20 of the 20tn Century, egg collecting and uncontrolled hunting, primarily for the millinery trade, had greatly reduced the population, and in some areas along the Atlantic Coast, the piping plover was close to extirpation. Following passage of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (40 Stat.775; 16 U.S.C. 703-712) in 1918, and changes in the fashion industry that no longer exploited wild birds for feathers, piping plover numbers recovered to some extent (Haig and Oring 1985). Available data suggest that the most recent population decline began in the late 1940s or early 1950s (Haig and Oring 1985). Reports of local or statewide declines between 1950 and 1985 are numerous, and many are summarizedby Caims and Mclaren (1980) and Haig and Oring (1985). While Wilcox (1939) estimated more than 500 pairs of piping plovers on Long Island, New York, the 1989 population estimate was 191 pairs (see Table 4, USFWS 1996a). There was little focus on gathering quantitative data on piping plovers in Massachusetts through the late 1960s because the species was commonly observed and presumed to be secure. However, numbers of piping plover breeding pairs declined 50 to 100 percent at seven Massachusetts sites between the early 1970s and 1984 (Griffin and Melvin 19S4). Piping plover surveys in the early years of the recovery effort found that counts of these cryptically colored birds sometimes went up with increased census effort, suggesting that some historic counts of piping plovers by one or a few observers may have underestimated the piping plover population. Thus, the magnitude of the species decline may have been more severe than available numbers imply. Annual estimates of breeding pairs of Atlantic Coast piping plovers are based on multiple surveys at most occupied sites. Sites that cannot be monitored repeatedly in May and June (primarily sites with few pairs or inconsistent occupancy) are surveyed at least once during a standard nine-day count period (Hecht and Melvin 2009). Since its 1986 listing under the ESA, the Atlantic Coast population estimate has increased234%o, from approximately 790 pairs to an estimated 1,849 pairs in 2008, and the U.S. portion of the population has almost tripled, from approximately 550 pairs to an estimated 1,596 pairs. Even discounting apparent increases in New York, New Jersey, and North Carolina between 1986 and 1989, which likely were due in part to increased census effort (USFWS 1996a), the population nearly doubled between 1989 and 2008. The largest population increase between 1989 and 2008 has occured in New England (245%), followed by New York-New Jersey (74%). In the Southem (DE-MD-VA-NC) Recovery Unit, overall growth between 1989 and 2008 was 66Yo, but almost three-quarters of this increase occurred in just two years, 2003-2005. The eastern Canadapopulation fluctuated from year to year, with increases often quickly eroded in subsequent years; net growth between 1989 and 2008 was 9Yo. The overall population growth pattern was tempered by periodic rapid declines in the Southern and Eastern Canada Recovery Units. The eastern Canada population decreased 2lo/o iniust three 2l years (2002-2005), and the population in the southern half of the Southern Recovery Unit declined 68% in seven years (1995 -200I). The 64Yo decline in the Maine population, from 66 pairs in 2002 to 24 pats in 2008, following only a few years of decreased productivity, provides another example of the continuing risk of rapid and precipitous reversals in population growth. 4) Status and Distribution Reason for Listing: Hunting during the 19th and early 20th centuries likely led to initial declines in the species; however, shooting piping plovers has been prohibited since 1918 pursuant to the provisions of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA). Other human activities, such as habitat loss and degradation, disturbance from recreational pressure, contaminants, and predation are likely responsible for continued declines. These factors include development and shoreline stabilization. The 1985 final rule stated the number of piping plovers on the Gulf of Mexico coastal wintering grounds might be declining as indicated by preliminary analysis of the Christmas Bird Count data. Independent counts of piping plovers on the Alabama coast indicated a decline in numbers between the 1950s and early 1980s. At the time of listing, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department stated 30 percent of wintering habitat in Texas had been lost over the previous 20 years. The final rule also stated, in addition to extensive breeding area problems, the loss and modification of wintering habitat was a significant threat to the piping plover. Range-wide Trend: Three range-wide population surveys have been conducted for the piping plover; the 1991 (Haig and Plissner 1992), 1996 (Plissner and Haig 1997), and 2006 ((Elliott- Smith et aI.2009) International Piping Plover Censuses. These surveys were completed to help determine the species distribution and to monitor progress toward recovery. Recovery Criteria Delisting of the three piping plover populations may be considered when the following criteria are met: Northem Great Plains Population (USFWS 1988. 1994) 1.Increase the number of birds in the U.S. northem Great Plains states to 2,300 pairs (Service 1994). Increase the number of birds in the prairie region of Canada to 2,500 adult piping plovers (Service 1 988). Secure long term protection of essential breeding and wintering habitat (Service 1994\. 2. J. 22 Great Lakes Population (USFWS 2003) l. At least 150 pairs (300 individuals), for at least 5 consecutive years, with at least 100 breeding pairs (200 individuals) in Michigan and 50 breeding pairs (100 individuals) distributed among sites in other Great Lakes states. 2. Five-year average fecundity within the range of 1.5-2.0 fledglings per pair, per year, across the breeding distribution, and ten-year population projections indicate the population is stable or continuing to grow above the recovery goal. 3. Protection and long-term maintenance of essential breeding and wintering habitat is ensured, sufficient in quantity, quality, and distribution to support the recovery goal of 150 pairs (300 individuals). 4. Genetic diversity within the population is deemed adequate for population persistence and can be maintained over the long-term. 5. Agreements and funding mechanisms are in place for long-term protection and management activities in essential breeding and wintering habitat. Atlantic Coast Population (USFWS 1996a) 1. Increase and maintain for 5 years a total of 2,000 breeding pairs, distributed among 4 recovery units. Recoverlt (-Init Minimum Subpopulation Atlantic (eastern) Canada 400 pairs New England 625 Pairs New York-New Jersey 575 Pairs Southern (DE-MD-VA-NC) 400 Pairs 2. Verify the adequacy of a 2,000 pair population of piping plovers to maintain heterozygosity and allelic diversity over the long term. 3. Achieve aS-year average productivity of 1.5 fledged chicks per pair in each of the 4 recovery units described in criterion 1, based on data from sites that collectively support at least 90o/o of the recover unit's population. 4. Institute long-term agreements to assure protection and management sufficient to maintain the population targets and average productivity in each recovery unit. 5. Ensure long-term maintenance of wintering habitat, sufficient in quantity, quality, and distribution to maintain survival rates for a2,000-pair population. ^az) Breeding Range Northern Great Plains Population The IPPC numbers indicate that the Northem Great Plains population (including Canada) declined from 1991 through 200I, and then increased dramatically in2006. This increase corresponded with a multi-year drought in the Missouri River basin that exposed a great deal of nesting habitat, suggesting that the population can respond fairly rapidly to changes in habitat quantity and quality. Despite this improvement, we do not consider the numeric, distributional, or temporal elements of the population recovery criteria achieved. As the Missouri River basin emerges from drought and breeding habitat is inundated, the population will likely decline. The management activities carried out in many areas during drought conditions have undoubtedly helped to maintain and increase the piping plover population, especially to mitigate for otherwise poor reproductive success during wet years when habitat is limited. While the population increase seen in recent years demonstrates the possibility that the population can rebound from low population numbers, ongoing efforts are needed to maintain and increase the population. In the U.S., piping plover crews attempt to locate most piping plover nests and take steps to improve their success. This work has suffered from insufficient and unstable funding in most areas. Emerging threats, such as energy development (parlicularly wind, oil and gas and associated infrastructure) and climate change are likely to impact piping plovers both on the breeding and wintering grounds. The potential impact of both of these threats is not well understood, and measures to mitigate for them are also uncertain at this time. In the 2009 status review, the Service concluded that the Northern Great Plains piping plover population remains vulnerable, especially due to management of river systems throughout the breeding range (USFWS 2009). Many of the threats identified in the 1988 recovery plan, including those affecting Northern Great Plains piping plover population during the two-thirds of its annual cycle spent in the wintering range, remain today or have intensified. Great Lakes Population The population has shown significant growth, from approximately l7 pairs at the time of listing in 1986, to 63 pairs in 2008. The total of 63 breeding pairs represents approximately 42o/o of the 24 crr1rent recovery goal of 150 breeding pairs for the Great Lakes population. Productivity goals, as specified in the 2003 recovery plan, have been met over the past 5 years. During this time period the average annual fledging rate has been 1 .76,well above the 1.5 fledglings per breeding pair recovery goal. A 2010 analysis of banded piping plovers in the Great Lakes, however, suggests that after-hatch year suruival (adult) rates may be declining (Roche et al. 2010). Continued population growth will require the long-term maintenance of productivity goals concurrent with measures to sustain or improve important vital rates. Although initial information considered at the time of the 2003 recovery plan suggested the population may be at risk from a lack of genetic diversity, currently available information suggests that genetic diversity may not pose a high risk to the Great Lakes population. Additional genetic information is needed to assess genetic structure of the population and verify the adequacy of a 150 pair population to maintain long-term heterozygosity and allelic diversity. Several years of population growth is evidence of the effectiveness of the ongoing Great Lakes piping plover recovery program. Most major threats, however, including habitat degradation, predation, and human disturbance remain persistent and pervasive. Severe threats from human disturbance and predation remain ubiquitous within the Great Lakes. Expensive labor-intensive management to minimize the effects of these continuing threats, as specified in recovery plan tasks, are implemented every year by a network of dedicated govemmental and private partners. Because threats to Great Lakes piping plovers persist, reversal of gains in abundance and productivity are expected to quickly follow ifcurrent protection efforts are reduced. Emerging potential threats to piping plovers in the Great Lakes basin include disease, wind turbine generators and, potentially, climate change. Type-E, botulism in the Northern Lake Michigan basin has resulted in several piping plover mortalities since 2000 (USFWS 2013). Future outbreaks in areas that support a concentration of breeding piping plovers could impact survival rates and population abundance. Wind turbine projects, many of which are currently in the planning stages, need further study to determine potential risks to piping plovers and/or their habitat, as well as the need for specific protections to prevent or mitigate impacts. Climate change projections for the Great Lakes include the potential for significant water-level decreases. The degree to which this factor will impact piping plover habitat is unknown, but prolonged water-level decreases are likely to alter habitat condition and distribution. In the 2009 status review, the Service concluded that the Great Lakes population remains at considerable risk of extinction due to its small size, limited distribution and vulnerability to stochastic events, such as disease outbreak (USFWS 2009). In addition, the factors that led to the piping plover's 1986 listing remain present. 25 Atlantic Coast Population Substantial population growth, from approximately 790 pairs in 1986 to an estimated 1,849 pairs in 2008, has decreased the Atlantic Coast piping plover's vulnerability to extinction since ESA listing. Thus, considerable progress has been made towards the overall goal of 2,000 breeding pairs articulated in recovery criterion 1. As discussed in the 1996 revised recovery plan, however, the overall security of the Atlantic Coast piping plover is fundamentally dependent on even distribution of population growth, as specified in subpopulation targets, to protect a sparsely-distributed species with strict biological requirements from environmental variation (including catastrophes) and increase the likelihood of interchange among subpopulations. Although the New England Recovery Unit has sustained its subpopulation target for the requisite five years, and the New York-New Jersey Recovery Unit reached its target in2007 (but dipped below again in 2008), considerable additional growth is needed in the Southem and Eastern CanadaRecovery Units (recovery criterion 1). Productivity goals (criterion 3) specified in the 1996 recovery plan must be revised to accommodate new information about latitudinal variation in productivity needed to maintain a stationary population. Population growth, particularly in the three U.S. recovery units, provides indirect evidence that adequate productivity has occurred in at least some years. However, overall security of a 2,000 pair population will require long-term maintenance of these revised recovery-unit-specific productivity goals concurrent with population numbers at or above abundance goals. Twenty years of relatively steady population growth, driven by productivity gains, also evidences the efficacy of the ongoing Atlantic Coast piping plover recovery program. However, all of the major threats (habitat loss and degradation, predation, human disturbance, and inadequacy of other (non-ESA) regulatory mechanisms) identified in the 1986 ESA listing and 1996 revised recovery plan remain persistent and pervasive. Severe threats from human disturbance and predation remain ubiquitous along the Atlantic Coast. Expensive labor-intensive management to minimize the effects of these continuing threats, as specified in recovery plan tasks, are implemented every year by a network of dedicated govemmental and private cooperators. Because threats to Atlantic Coast piping plovers persist (and in many cases have increased since listing), reversal of gains in abundance and productivity would quickly follow diminishment of current protection efforts. Finally, two emerging potential threats, wind turbine generators and climate change (especially sea-level rise) are likely to affect Atlantic Coast piping plovers throughout their life cycle. These two threats must be evaluated to ascertain their effects on piping plovers and/or their habitat, as 26 well as the need for specific protections to prevent or mitigate impacts that could otherwise increase overall risks the species. In the 2009 status review, the Service concluded that the Atlantic Coast piping plover remains vulnerable to low numbers in the Southern and Eastern Canada (and, to a lesser extent, the New York-New Jersey) Recovery Units (USFWS 2009). Furthermore, the factors that led to the piping plover's 1986 listing remain operative rangewide (including in New England), and many of these threats have increased. Interruption of costly, labor-intensive efforts to manage these threats would quickly lead to steep population declines. Nonbreeding Range Piping plovers spend up to 10 months of their life cycle on their migration and winter grounds, generally July 15 through as late as May 15. Piping plover migration routes and habitats overlap breeding and wintering habitats, and, unless banded, migrants passing through a site usually are indistinguishable from breeding or wintering piping plovers. Migration stopovers by banded piping plovers from the Great Lakes have been documented in New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina (Stucker and Cuthber|2006). Migrating breeders from eastem Canada have been observed in Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and North Carolina (Amirault et al. 2005). As many as 85 staging piping plovers have been tallied at various sites in the Atlantic breeding range (Perkins 2008 pers. communication), but the composition (e.g., adults that nested nearby and their fledged young of the year versus migrants moving to or from sites farther north), stopover duration, and local movements are unknown. In general, distance between stopover locations and duration of stopovers throughout the coastal migration range remains poorly understood. Review of published records of piping plover sightings throughout North America by Pompei and Cuthbe rt (2004) found more than 3 ,400 fall and spring stopover records at 1 ,1 96 sites. Published reports indicated that piping plovers do not concentrate in large numbers at inland sites and that they seem to stop opportunistically. In most cases, reports of birds at inland sites were single individuals. Piping plovers migrate through and winter in coastal areas of the U.S. from North Carolina to Texas and in portions of Mexico and the Caribbean. Gratto-Trevor et al. (2009) reported that six of 259 banded piping plovers observed more than once per winter moved across boundaries of the seven U.S. regions. This species exhibits a high degree of intra- and inter-annual wintering site fidelity Q.{icholls and Baldassane 1990; Drake etal.200I; Noel etal.2005; Stucker and Cuthbert 2006). Of 216 birds observed in different years, only eight changed regions between vears" and several of these shifts were associated with late summer or early spring migration 27 periods (Gratto-Trevor et al.2009). Local movements are more common. In South Carolina, Maddock et al. (2009) documented many cross-inlet movements by wintering banded piping plovers as well as occasional movements of up to 1 8 km by approximately 1 0% of the banded population; larger movements within South Carolina were seen during fall and spring migration. Similarly, eight banded piping plovers that were observed in two locations during 2006-2007 surueys in Louisiana and Texas were all in close proximity to their original location, such as on the bay and ocean side of the same island or on adjoining islands (Maddock 2008). Gratto-Trevor et aI. (2009) found strong pattems (but no exclusive partitioning) in winter distribution of uniquely banded piping plovers from four breeding populations (Figure 5). All easterr Canada and 94o/o of Great Lakes birds wintered from North Carolina to southwest Florida. However, eastern Canadabirds were more heavily concentrated in North Carolina, and alarger proportion of Great Lakes piping plovers were found in South Carolina and Georgia. Northern Great Plains populations were primarily seen farther west and south, especially on the Texas Gulf Coast. Although the great majority of Prairie Canada individuals were observed in Texas, particularly southem Texas, individuals from the U.S. Great Plains were more widely distributed on the Gulf Coast from Florida to Texas. The findings of Gratto-Trevor et al. (2009) provide evidence of differences in the wintering distribution of piping plovers from these four breeding areas. However, the distribution of birds by breeding origin during migration remains largely unknown. Other major information gaps include the wintering locations of the U.S. Atlantic Coast breeding population (banding of U.S. Atlantic Coast piping plovers has been extremely limited) and the breeding origin of piping plovers wintering on Caribbean islands and in much of Mexico. Banded piping plovers from the Great Lakes, Northem Great Plains, and eastern Canadabreeding populations showed similar patterns of seasonal abundance at Little St. Simons Island, Georgia (Noel et al.2007). However, the number of banded plovers originating from the latter two populations was relatively small at that study area. Four rangewide mid-winter (late January to early February) population surveys, conducted at five-year intervals starting in 1991, are summarized in Table 1. Total numbers have fluctuated over time, with some areas experiencing increases and others decreases. Regional and local fluctuations may reflect the quantity and quality of suitable foraging and roosting habitat, which vary over time in response to natural coastal formation processes as well as anthropogenic habitat changes (e.g., inlet relocation, dredging of shoals and spits). Fluctuations may also represent localized weather conditions (especially wind) during surveys, or unequal survey coverage. Changes in wintering numbers may also be influenced by growth or decline in the particular breeding populations that concentrate their wintering distribution in a given area. 28 ATI,C] \I S/L, ATLS GF\/AL 'rx),1 TXS (; FS Figure 5.

In late September 2007,104 piping plovers were counted at the south end of Ocracoke Island, North Carolina O{PS 2007), where none were seen during the 2006International Piping Plover Winter Census (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). Noel et al. (2007) observed up to 100 piping plovers during peak migration at Little St. Simons Island, 30 Georgia, where approximately 40 piping plovers wintered in20032005. Differences among fall, winter, and spring counts in South Carolina were less pronounced, but inter-year fluctuations (e.g., 108 piping plovers in spring 2007 versus 174 piping plovers in spring 2008) at 28 sites were striking (Maddock et al. 2009). Even as far south as the Florida Panhandle, monthly counts at Phipps Preserve in Franklin County ranged from a mid-winter low of four piping plovers in December 2006 to peak counts of 47 in October 2006 and March 2007 (Smith 2007). Pinkston (2004) observed much heavier use of Texas Gulf Coast (ocean-facing) beaches between early September and mid-October (approximately 16 birds per mile) than during December to March (approximately two birds per mile). Local movements of nonbreeding piping plovers may also affect abundance estimates. At Deveaux Bank, one of South Carolina's most important piping plover sites, five counts at approximately 10-day intervals between August 27 and October J,2006, oscillated from 28 to 14 to 29 to I8 to 26 (Maddock et aL.2009). Noel and Chandler (2008) detected banded Great Lakes piping plovers known to be wintering on their Georgia study site in 73 .8 + 8.I % of surveys over three years. Abundance estimates for nonbreeding piping plovers may also be affected by the number of surveyor visits to the site. Preliminary analysis of detection rates by Maddock et al. (2009) found 87o/o detection during the mid-winter period on core sites surveyed three times a month during fall and spring and one time per month during winter, compared with42o/o detection on sites surveyed three times per year (Cohen 2009 pers. communication). The2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons affected a substantial amount of habitat along the Gulf Coast. Habitats such as those along Gulf Islands National Seashore have benefited from increased washover events, which created optimal habitat conditions for piping plovers. Conversely, hard shoreline structures put into place following storms throughout the species range to prevent such shoreline migration prevent habitat creation (see Factors Affecting Species Environment within the Action Area). Four hurticanes between2002 and2005 are often cited in reference to rapid erosion of the Chandeleur Islands, a chain of low-lying islands in Louisiana where the 1991 International Piping Plover Census tallied more than 350 piping plovers. Comparison of imagery taken three years before and several days after Hurricane Katrina found that the Chandeleur Islands lost 82%o of their surface area (Sallenger et aL.2009 in review), and a review of aerial photography prior to the 2006 Census suggested little piping plover habitat remained (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). However, Sallenger et al. (2009 in review) noted that habitat changes in the Chandeleurs stem not only from the effects of these storms but rather from the combined effects of the storms, long-term (>1,000 years) diminishing sand supply, and sea- level rise relative to the land. 31 The Service is aware of the following site-specific conditions that benefit several habitats piping plover use while wintering and migrating, including critical habitat units. In Texas, one critical habitat unit was afforded greater protection due to the acquisition of adjacent upland properties by the local Audubon chapter. In another unit in Texas, vehicles were removed from a portion of the beach decreasing the likelihood of automobile disturbance to plovers. Exotic plant removal that threatens to invade suitable piping plover habitat is occurring in a critical habitat unit in South Florida. The Service and other government agencies remain in a contractual agreement with the USDA for predator control within limited coastal areas in the Florida panhandle, including portions of some critical habitat units. Continued removal of potential terrestrial predators is likely to enhance survivorship of wintering and migrating piping plovers. The status of piping plovers on winter and migration grounds is difficult to assess, but threats to piping plover habitat used during winter and migration identified by the Service during its designation of critical habitat continue to affect the species. Unregulated motorized and pedestrian recreational use, inlet and shoreline stabilization projects, beach maintenance and nourishment, and pollution affect most winter and migration areas. Conservation efforts at some locations have likely resulted in the enhancement of wintering habitat. Threats to Piping Plovers The three recovery plans stated that shoreline development throughout the wintering range poses atfueatto all populations of piping plovers. The plans fuither stated that beach maintenance and nourishment, inlet dredging, and artificial structures, such as jetties, groins, and revetments, could eliminate wintering areas and alter sedimentation patterns leading to the loss of nearby habitat. Unregulated motorized and pedestrian recreational use, inlet and shoreline stabilization projects, beach maintenance and nourishment, and pollution affect most winter and migration areas. Important components of ecologically sound barrier beach management include perpetuation of natural dynamic coastal formation processes. Structural development along the shoreline or manipulation of natural inlets upsets the dynamic processes and results in habitat loss or degradation (Melvin et al. 1991). Throughout the range of migrating and wintering piping plovers, inlet and shoreline stabilization, inlet dredging, beach maintenance and nourishment activities, and seawall installations continue to constrain natural coastal processes. Dredging of inlets can affect spit formation adjacent to inlets and directly remove or affect ebb and flood tidal shoal formation. Jetties, which stabilize an island, cause island widening and subsequent growth of vegetation on inlet shores. Seawalls restrict natural island movement and exacerbate erosion. As discussed in more detail below, all these efforts result in loss of piping plover habitat. Construction of these projects during months when piping plovers are present also causes JL disturbance that disrupts the birds' foraging efficiency and hinders their ability to build fat reserves over the winter and in preparation for migration, as well as their recuperation from migratory flights. In addition, up to 24 shorebird species migrate or winter along the Atlantic Coast and almost 40 species of shorebirds are present during migration and wintering periods in the Gulf of Mexico region (Helmers 1992). Continual degradation and loss of habitats used by wintering and migrating shorebirds may cause an increase in intra-specific and inter-specific competition for remaining food supplies and roosting habitats. In Florida, for example, approximately 825 miles of coastline and parallel bayside flats (unspecified amount) were present prior to the advent of high human densities and beach stabilization projects. We estimate that only about 35%o of the Florida coastline continues to support natural coastal formation processes, thereby concentrating foraging and roosting opportunities for all shorebird species and forcing some individuals into suboptimal habitats. Thus, intra- and inter-specific competition most likely exacerbates threats from habitat loss and degradation' Sand placement proj ects In the wake of episodic storm events, managers of lands under public, private, and county ownership often protect coastal structures using emergency storm berms; this is frequently followed by beach nourishment or renourishment activities (nourishment projects are considered "soft" stabilization versus "hard" stabilization such as seawalls). Berm placement and beach nourishment deposit substantial amounts of sand along Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic beaches to protect local property in anticipation of preventing erosion and what otherwise will be considered natural processes of overwash and island migration (Schmitt and Haines 2003). Past and ongoing stabilization projects fundamentally alter the naturally dynamic coastal processes that create and maintain beach strand and bayside habitats, including those habitat components that piping plovers rely upon. Although impacts may vary depending on a range of factors, stabilization projects may directly degrade or destroy piping plover roosting and foraging habitat in several ways. Front beach habitat may be used to construct an artificial berm that is densely planted in grass, which can directly reduce the availability of roosting habitat. Over time, if the beach naffows due to erosion, additional roosting habitat between the berm and the water can be lost. Berms can also prevent or reduce the natural overwash that creates roosting habitats by converting vegetated areas to open sand areas. The vegetation growth caused by impeding natural overwash can also reduce the maintenance and creation of bayside intertidal feeding habitats. In addition, stabilization projects may indirectly encourage further development of coastal areas and increase the threat of disturbance. At least 668 of 2,340 coastal shoreline miles (29% of beaches throughout the piping plover winter and migration range in the U.S.) are bermed, nourished, or renourished, generally for aaJJ recreational purposes and to protect commercial and private infrastructure (Table 2). However, only approximately 54 miles or 2.3Ioh of these impacts have occurred within critical habitat. In Louisiana, sediment placement projects are deemed environmental restoration projects by the USFWS, because without the sediment, many areas would erode below sea level. Table 2.

Using Google Earth@ (accessed April2009 and October 2014), Service's biologists visually estimated the number of navigable mainland or barrier island tidal inlets throughout the wintering range of the piping plover in the conterminous U.S. that have some State Sandy beach shoreline miles available Sandy beach shoreline miles nourished to date (within critical habitat units) Percent of sandy beach shoreline affected (within critical habitat units) North Carolina 3017 1175 (unknown)39 (unknown) South Carolina 1 g7t s6 (0.6)30 (0.32)) Georgia 100'8 (0.4)8 (0.40) Florida 825"404 (6)'4e (0.72) Alabama 53'12 (2)23 (3.77) Mississippi I t0':6 (0)5 (0) Louisiana 3g7l Unquantified (usually restoration-oriented) Unknown Texas 3674 6s (4s)r8 (12.26) Overall Total 2,340 (does not include Louisiana) >668 does not include Louisiana (54 in CH) 29% (>231% in CH) 34 form of hardened structure. This includes seawalls or adjacent development, which lock the inlets in place (Table 3). Table 3. Number of hardened inlets by state. Asterisk (*) represents an inlet at the state line, in which case half an inlet is counted in each state. Tidal intet relocation can cause loss andlor degradation of piping plover habitat; although less permanent than construction of hard structures, effects can persist for years. Service biologists are aware of at least seven inlet relocation projects (two in North Carolina, three in South Carolina, two in Florida), but this number likely under-represents the extent of this activity. Sand mining/dredging Sand mining, the practice of extracting (dredging) sand from sand bars, shoals, and inlets in the nearshore zone, is a less expensive source ofsand than obtaining sand from offshore shoals for beach nourishment. Sand bars and shoals are sand sources that move onshore over time and act as natural breakwaters. Inlet dredging reduces the formation of exposed ebb and flood tidal shoals considered to be primary or optimal piping plover roosting and foraging habitat. Removing these sand sources can alter depth contours and change wave refraction as well as cause localized erosion (Hayes and Michel2008). Exposed shoals and sandbars are also valuable to piping plovers, as they tend to receive less human recreational use (because they are only accessible by boat) and therefore provide relatively less disturbed habitats for birds. We do not have a good estimate of the amount of sand mining that occurs across the piping plover State Visually estimated number of navigable mainland and barrier island inlets per state Number of hardened inlets 7o of inlets affected North Carolina 20 2.5* (+ 1 proposed)r2.s% (r75%) South Carolina 34 3.5*r0.3% Georgia 26 2 7.7% Florida 82 41 s0% Alabama t4 6 42.9% Mississippi I6 43.8% Louisiana 40 9 22.5% Texas I7 10 58.8% Overall Total 249 81 (82 with proposed)325% (32.e%) 35 wintering range, nor do we have a good estimate of the number of inlet dredging projects that occur. Most jettied inlets need maintenance dredging, but non-hardened inlets are often dredged as well. Groins Groins (structures made of concrete , rip rap, wood, or metal built perpendicular to the beach in order to trap sand) are typically found on developed beaches with severe erosion. Although groins can be individual structures, they are often clustered along the shoreline. Groins can act as barriers to longshore sand transport and cause downdrift erosion (Hayes and Michel 2008), which prevents piping plover habitat creation by limiting sediment deposition and accretion. These structures are found throughout the southeastern Atlantic Coast, and although most were in place prior to the piping plover's 1986 ESA listing, installation of new groins continues to occur. In North Carolina, there is one currently existing groin, at Fort Macon in Carteret County. There are also two degraded groin/jetty structures in Dare County, adjacent to the old location of the Cape Hatteras lighthouse. In2014, the Village of Bald Head Island received state authorization to build a terminal groin at the mouth of the Cape Fear River/Wilmington Harbor Channel. Three other local governments in North Carolina are seeking authorization for terminal groins (Ocean Isle Beach, Holden Beach, and Figure 8 Island). Seawalls and revetments Seawalls and revetments are vertical hard structures built parallel to the beach in front of buildings, roads, and other facilities to protect them from erosion. However, these structures often accelerate erosion by causing scouring in front of and downdrift from the structure (Hayes and Michel 2008), rvhich can eliminate intertidal foraging habitat and adjacent roosting habitat. Seawalls confine the wave energy and intensify the erosion by concentrating the sediment transport processes in an increasingly narrow zone. Eventually, the beach disappears, leaving the seawall directly exposed to the full force of the waves (Williams et al 1995). Physical characteristics that determine microhabitats and biological communities can be altered after installation of a seawall or revetment, thereby depleting or changing composition of benthic communities that serve as the prey base for piping plovers. At four California study sites, each comprised of an unarmored segment and a segment seaward of a seawall, Dugan and Hubbard (2006) found that armored segments had narrower intertidal zones, smaller standing crops of macrophyte wrack, and lower shorebird abundance and species richness. Geotubes (long cylindrical bags made of high-strength permeable fabric and filled with sand) and sandbag revetments are softer alternatives, but act as barriers by preventing overwash. We did not find any sources that summarize the linear extent of seawall, revetment, and geotube installation projects that have occurred across the piping plover's wintering and migration habitat. There 36 are two existing rock revetments along the coast of North Carolina: one at Fort Fisher (approximately 3,040 lf), and another along Carolina Beach (approximately 2,050 10. A 1,450 lf sandbag revetment is currently in construction at the north end of North Topsail Beach. Exo ti c/inv as iv e v e get at i o n One identified threat to piping plover habitat, not described in the listing rule or recovery plans, is the spread of coastal invasive plants into suitable piping plover habitat. Like most invasive species, coastal exotic plants reproduce and spread quickly and exhibit dense growth habits, often outcompeting native plant species. If left uncontrolled, invasive plants cause a habitat shift from open or sparsely vegetated sand to dense vegetation, resulting in the loss or degradation of piping plover roosting habitat, which is especially important during high tides and migration periods. Beach vitex (Vitex rotundifolia) is a woody vine introduced into the southeastern U.S. as a dune stabilization and ornamental plant (Westbrooks and Madsen2006). It currently occupies a very small percentage of its potential range in the U.S.; however, it is expected to grow well in coastal communities throughout the southeastern U.S. from Virginia to Florida, and west to Texas (Westbrooks and Madsen 2006). In2003, the plant was documented in New Hanover, Pendet, and Onslow counties in North Carolina, and at 125 sites in Horry, Georgetown, and Charleston counties in South Carolina. Task forces formed in North and South Carolina in 2004-05 have made great strides to remove this plant from their coasts. To date, about 200 sites in North Carolina have been treated. with 200 additional sites in need of treatment. Similar efforts are underway in South Carolina (Suiter 2009 pers. communication). Unquantified amounts of crowfootgrass (Dactyloctenium aegyptium) grow invasively along portions of the Florida coastline. It forms thick bunches or mats thatmay change the vegetative structure of coastal olant communities and alter shorebird habitat. The Australian pine (Casuarina equisetifulia) changes the vegetative structure of the coastal community in south Florida and islands within the Bahamas. Shorebirds prefer foraging in open areas where they are able to see potential predators, and tall trees provide good perches for avian predators. Australian pines potentially impact shorebirds, including the piping plover, by reducing attractiveness of foraging habitat andlor increasing avian predation. The propensity of these exotic species to spread, and their tenacity once established, make them a persistent threat, partially countered by increasing landowner awareness and willingness to undertake eradication activities. anJI Wrack removal and beach cleaning Wrack on beaches and baysides provides important foraging and roosting habitat for piping plovers (Drake T999a; Smith 2007; Maddock et al.2009; Lott et a|.2009b; and many other shorebirds on their winter, breeding, and migration grounds. Because shorebird numbers are positively correlated with wrack cover and biomass of their invertebrate prey that feed on wrack (Tan and Tarc 1987; Hubbard and Dugan 2003; Dugan et aI.2003), grooming will lower bird numbers (Defreo et al. 2009). There is increasing popularity in the Southeast, especially in Florida, for beach communities to carry out "beach cleaning" and "beach raking" actions. Beach cleaning occurs on private beaches, where piping plover use is not well documented, and on some municipal or county beaches that are used by piping plovers. Most wrack removal on state and federal lands is limited to post-storm cleanup and does not occur regularly. Man-made beach cleaning and raking machines effectively remove seaweed, fish, glass, syringes, plastic, cans, cigarettes, shells, stone, wood, and virtually any unwanted debris (Barber and Sons 2012). These efforts remove accumulated wrack, topographic depressions, and sparse vegetation nodes used by roosting and foraging piping plovers. Removal of wrack also eliminates a beach's natural sand-trapping abilities, further destabilizing the beach. In addition, sand adhering to seaweed and trapped in the cracks and crevices of wrack is removed from the beach. Although the amount of sand lost due to single sweeping actions may be small, it adds up considerably over a period of years (irtrordstrom et aI.2006; Neal et aI.2007). Beach cleaning or grooming can result in abnormally broad unvegetated zones that are inhospitable to dune formation or plant colonization, thereby enhancing the likelihood of erosion (Defreo et al. 200e). Predation The 1996 Atlantic Coast Recovery Plan summarized evidence that human activities affect types, numbers, and activity patterns of some predators, thereby exacerbating natural predation on breeding piping plovers. The impact of predation on migrating or wintering piping plovers remains largely undocumented. Rec reat i onal di slur bance Intense human disturbance in shorebird winter habitat can be functionally equivalent to habitat loss if the disturbance prevents birds from using an area (Goss-Custard et al. 1996), which can lead to roost abandonment and local population declines (Burton et al. 1996). Pf,rster et al. 38 (1992) implicate anthropogenic disturbance as a factor in the long-term decline of migrating shorebirds at staging areas. Disturbance, i.e., beach driving, human and pet presence that alters bird behavior, disrupts piping plovers as well as other shorebird species. Disturbance can cause shorebirds to spend less time roosting or foraging and more time in alert postures or fleeing from the disturbances (Johnson and Baldassane 1988; Burger 1991; Burger 1994; Elliott and Teas 1996; Lafferly 2001a,2001b; Thomas et aL.2002), which limits the local abundance of piping plovers (Zonickand Ryan 1995;Zonick 2000). Shorebirds thatare repeatedly flushed in response to disturbance expend energy on costly short flights Qlludds and Bryant 2000). Shorebirds are more likely to flush from the presence of dogs than people, and birds react to dogs from farther distances than people (Lafferty 2001a;2001b; Thomas et aI.2002). Dogs off leash are more likely to flush piping plovers from farther distances than are dogs on leash; nonetheless, dogs both on and off leashes disturb piping plovers (Hoopes 1993). Pedestrians walking with dogs often go through flocks of foraging and roosting shorebirds; some even encourage their dogs to chase birds. Beach driving and off-road vehicles can significantly degrade piping plover habitat (Wheeler 1979) or disrupt the birds' normal behavior pattems (Zomck 2000). The 1996 Atlantic Coast recovery plan cites tire ruts crushing wrack into the sand, making it unavailable as cover or as foraging substrate (Hoopes 1993; Goldin 1993). The plan also notes that the magnitude of the threat from off-road vehicles is particularly significant, because vehicles extend impacts to remote stretches of beach where human disturbance will otherwise be very slight. Godfrey et al. (19S0 as cited inLamont et al. 1997) postulated that vehicular traffic along the beach may compact the substrate and kill marine invertebrates that are food for the piping plover. Zonick (2000) found that the density of off-road vehicles negatively correlated with abundance of roosting piping plovers on the ocean beach. Cohen et al. (2008) found that radio-tagged piping plovers using ocean beach habitat at Oregon Inlet in North Carolina were far less likely to use the north side of the inlet where off-road vehicle use is allowed, and recommended controlled management experiments to determine if recreational disturbance drives roost site selection. Ninety-six percent of piping plover detections were on the south side of the inlet even though it was farther away from foraging sites (1.8 km from the sound side foraging site to the north side of the inlet versus 0.4 km from the sound side foraging site to the north side of the inlet; Cohen et al. 2008). Based on surveys with land managers and biologists, knowledge of local site conditions, and other information, we have estimated the levels of eight types of disturbance at sites in the U.S. with wintering piping plovers. There are few areas used by wintering piping plovers that are devoid of human presence, and just under half have leashed and unleashed dog presence (Smith 2007; Lott et a1.2009b; Service unpubl. data2009; Maddock and Bimbi unpubl. data). Table 4 39 summadzes the disturbance analysis results. Data arc not available on human disturbance at winterins sites in the Bahamas. other Caribbean countries, or Mexico. Table 4. Percent of known piping plover winter and migration habitat locations, by state, where various types ofanthropogenic disturbance have been reported. Although the timing, frequency, and duration of human and dog presence throughout the wintering range are unknown, studies in Alabama and South Carolina suggest that most disturbances to piping plovers occurs during periods of warmer weather, which coincides with piping plover migration (Johnson and Baldassarre 1988; Lott et al. 2009b; Maddock et al. 2009). Smith (2007) documents varying disturbance levels throughout the nonbreeding season at northwest Florida sites. LeDee (2003) collected suryey responses in2007 from 35 managers (located in seven states) at sites that were designated as critical habitat for wintering piping plovers. Ownership included federal, state, and local governmental agencies and non-governmental organizations managing national wildlife refuges; national, state, county, and municipal parks; state and estuarine research reserves; state preserves; state wildlife management areas; and other types of managed lands. Of 44 reporting sites, 40 allowed public beach access year-round and four sites were closed to the public. Of the 40 sites that allow public access, 620/o of site managers reported >10,000 visitors during September-March, and3lYo reported >100,000 visitors. Restrictions on visitor activities on the beach included automobiles (at 81% of sites), all-terrain vehicles (89%), and dogs during the winter season (50%). Half of the suruey respondents reported funding as a primary limitation in managing piping plovers and other threatened and endangered species at their sites. Other limitations included "human resource capacity" (24%), conflicting management priorities (I2Yo), and lack of research (3%). 40 Percent by State Disturbance Type AL FL GA LA MS NC SC TX Pedestrians 67 92 94 25 100 100 88 54 Doss on leash 67 69 31 25 73 94 25 25 Doss off leash 67 81 19 25 73 94 66 46 Bikes 0 I9 63 25 0 0 28 t9 ATVs 0 35 0 25 0 17 25 30 ORVs 0 21 0 25 0 50 31 38 Boats aaJJ 65 100 100 0 78 63 44 Kite surfing 0 10 0 0 0 aaJJ 0 0 Disturbance can be addressed by implementing recreational management techniques such as vehicle and pet restrictions and symbolic fencing (usually sign posts and string) of roosting and feeding habitats. In implementing conservation measures, managers need to consider a range of site-specific factors, including the extent and quality of roosting and feeding habitats and the types and intensity of recreational use patterns. In addition, educational materials such as informational signs or brochures can provide valuable information so that the public understands the need for conservation measures. In sum, although there is some variability among states, disturbance from human beach recreation and pets poses a moderate to high and escalating threat to migrating and wintering piping plovers. Systematic review of recreation policy and beach management across the nonbreeding range will assist in better understanding cumulative impacts. Site-specific analysis and implementation of conservation measures should be a high priority at piping plover sites that have moderate or high levels of disturbance and the Service and state wildlife agencies should increase technical assistance to land managers to implement management strategies and monitor their effectiveness. Climate Change (sea-level rise) Over the past 100 years, the globally-averaged sea level has risen approximately 10-25 centimeters (Rahmstorf et aL.2007), arate that is an order of magnitude greater than that seen in the past several thousand years (Douglas et al.200l as cited in Hopkinson et al. 2008). The IPCC suggests that by 2080 sea-level rise could convert as much as 33o/o of the world's coastal wetlands to open water (IPCC 2007). Although rapid changes in sea level are predicted, estimated time frames and resulting water levels vary due to the uncertainty about global temperature projections and the rate of ice sheets melting and slipping into the ocean (IPCC 2007; CCSP 2008). Potential effects of sea-level rise on coastal beaches may vary regionally due to subsidence or uplift as well as the geological character of the coast and nearshore (CCSP 2009; Galbraith et al. 2002). In the last century, for example, sea-level rise along the U.S. Gulf Coast exceeded the global average, and averages as high as0.32 inches per year, because those areas are subsiding (USEPA 2014). Sediment compaction and oil and gas extraction compound tectonic subsidence (Penland and Ramsey 1990; Morton et aL.2003; Hopkinson et al. 2008). Low elevations and proximity to the coast make all nonbreeding coastal piping plover foraging and roosting habitats vulnerable to the effects of rising sea level. Sea-level rise was cited as a contributing factor in the 68% decline in tidal flats and algal mats in the Corpus Christi area (i.e., Lamar Peninsula to Encinal Peninsula) in Texas between the 1950s artd 2004 (Tremblay et al. 2008). Mapping by Titus and Richman (2001) showed that more than 80% of the lowest land alons the Atlantic and 41 Gulf coasts was in Louisiana, Florida, Texas, and North Carolina, where 735% of all wintering piping plovers were tallied during the 2006International Piping Plover Census (Elliott-Smith et aL.2009). Inundation of piping plover habitat by rising seas could lead to permanent loss of habitat if natural coastal dynamics are impeded by numerous structures or roads, especially if those shorelines are also armored. Without development or armoring, low undeveloped islands can migrate toward the mainland, pushed by the overwashing of sand eroding from the seaward side and being re-deposited in the bay (Scavia et aI.2002). Overwash and sand migration are impeded on developed portions of islands. Instead, as sea-level increases, the ocean-facing beach erodes and the resulting sand is deposited offshore. The buildings and the sand dunes then prevent sand from washing back toward the lagoons, and the lagoon side becomes increasingly submerged during extreme high tides (Scavia et aL.2002), diminishing both barrier beach shorebird habitat and protection for mainland developments. Modeling for three sea-level rise scenarios (reflecting variable projections of global temperature rise) at five important U.S. shorebird staging and wintering sites predicted loss of 20-70o/o of current intertidal foraging habitat (Galbraith et aI.2002). These authors estimated probabilistic sea-level changes for specific sites partially based on historical rates ofsea-level change (from tide gauges at or near each site); they then superimposed this on projected 50% and 5%o probability of global sea-level changes by 2100 of 34 cm and 77 cm, respectively. The 50% and 5o/o probability sea level change projections were based on assumed global temperature increases of 2" C (50% probability) and 4.7" C (5% probability). The most severe losses were projected at sites where the coastline is unable to move inland due to steep topography or seawalls. The Galbraith et al. (2002) Gulf Coast study site, Bolivar Flats, Texas, is a designated critical habitat unit known to host high numbers of piping plovers during migration and throughout the winter; e.g.,275 individuals were tallied during the2006Intemational Piping Plover Census (Elliott- Smith et a|.2009). Under the 50%o likelihood scenario for sea-level rise, Galbraith eI al. (2002) projected approximately 38o/o loss of intertidal flats at Bolivar Flats by 2050; however, after initiatly losing habitat, the area of tidal flat habitat was predicted to slightly increase by the year 2l}},because Bolivar Flats lacks armoring, and the coastline at this site can thus migrate inland. Although habitat losses in some areas are likely to be offset by gains in other locations, Galbraith et aI. (2002) noted that time lags may exert serious adverse effects on shorebird populations. Furthermore, even if piping plovers are able to move their wintering locations in response to accelerated habitat changes, there could be adverse effects on the birds' survival rates or reproductive fitness. 42 Table 5 displays the potential for adjacent development and/or hardened shorelines to impede response of habitat to sea-level rise in the eight states supporting wintering piping plovers. Although complete linear shoreline estimates are not readily obtainable, almost all known piping plover wintering sites in the U.S. were surveyed during the 2006International Piping Plover Census. To estimate effects at the census sites, as well as additional areas where piping plovers have been found outside of the census period, Service biologists reviewed satellite imagery and spoke with other biologists familiar with the sites. Of 406 sites, 204 (50%) have adjacent structures that may prevent the creation of new habitx if existing habitat were to become inundated. These threats will be perpetuated in places where damaged structures are repaired and replaced, and exacerbated where the height and strength of structures are increased. Data do not exist on the amount or types of hardened structures at wintering sites in the Bahamas, other Caribbean countries, or Mexico. Table 5. Number of sites surveyed during the 2006 winter International Piping Plover Census with hardened or developed structures adjacent to the shoreline. An asterisk (*) indicates additional piping plovers sites not surveyed in the 2006 Census. Sea-level rise poses a significant threat to all piping plover populations during the migration and wintering portion of their life cycle. Ongoing coastal stabilization activities may strongly influence the effects of sea-level rise on piping plover habitat. Improved understanding of how sea-level rise will affect the quality and quantity of habitat for migrating and wintering piping plovers is an urgent need.

Storms are a component of the natural processes that form coastal habitats used by migrating and wintering piping plovers, and positive effects of storm-induced overwash and vegetation removal have been noted in portions of the wintering range. For example, Gulf Islands National Seashore habitats in Florida benefited from increased washover events that created optimal habitat conditions during the 2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons, with biologists reporting piping plover use of these habitats within six months of the storms (l.tricholas 2005 pers. communication). Hurricane Katrina (2005) overwashed the mainland beaches of Mississippi, creating many tidal flats where piping plovers were subsequently observed (Winstead 2008). Hurricane Katrina also created a new inlet and improved habitat conditions on some areas of Dauphin Island, Alabama (LeBlanc 2009 pers. communication). Conversely, localized storms, since Katrina, have induced habitat losses on Dauphin Island (LeBlanc 2009 pers. communication). Noel and Chandler (2005) suspect that changes in habitat caused by multiple hurricanes along the Georgia coastline altered the spatial distribution of piping plovers and may have contributed to winter mortality of three Great Lakes piping plovers. Following Hurricane Ike in 2008, Arvin (2009) reported decreased numbers of piping plovers at some heavily eroded Texas beaches in the center of the storm impact areaand increases in plover numbers at sites about 100 miles to the southwest. However, piping plovers were observed later in the season using tidal lagoons and pools that Ike created behind the eroded beaches (Arvin 2009). The adverse effects on piping plovers attributed to storms are sometimes due to a combination of storms and other environmental changes or human use patterns. For example, four hurricanes between 2002 and2005 are often cited in reference to rapid erosion of the Chandeleur Islands, a chain of low-lying islands in Louisiana where the 1991 International Piping Plover Census tallied more than 350 piping plovers. Comparison of imagery taken three years before and several days after Hurricane Katrina found that the Chandeleur Islands lost 82o/o of their surface area (Sallenger et al.2009 unpublished), and a review of aerial photography prior to the 2006 Census suggested little piping plover habitat remained (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). However, Sallenger et al. (2009 unpublished) noted that habitat changes in the Chandeleurs stem not only from the effects of these storms but rather from the combined effects of the storms, long-term (>1,000 years) diminishing sand supply, and sea-level rise relative to the land. 44 Other storm-induced adverse effects include post-storm acceleration of human activities such as beach nourishment, sand scraping, and berm and seawall construction. Such stabilization activities can result in the loss and degradation of feeding and resting habitats. Storms also can cause widespread deposition of debris along beaches. Removal of debris often requires large machinery, which can cause extensive disturbance and adversely affect habitat elements such as wrack. Another example of indirect adverse effects linked to a storm event is the increased access to Pelican Island (LeBlanc 2009 pers. communication) due to merging with Dauphin Island following a2007 storm (Gibson et aL.2009). In sum, storms can create or enhance piping plover habitat while causing localized losses elsewhere in the wintering and migration range. Available information suggests that some birds may have resiliency to storms and move to unaffected areas without harm, while other reports suggest birds may perish from storm events. Significant concerns include disturbance to piping plovers and habitats during cleanup ofdebris, and post-storm acceleration ofshoreline stabilization activities, which can cause persistent habitat degradation and loss. Summary Habitat loss and degradation on winter and migration grounds from shoreline and inlet stabilization efforts, both within and outside of designated critical habitat, remain a serious threat to all piping plover populations. Modeling strongly suggests that the population is very sensitive to adult and juvenile survival. Therefore, while there is a great deal of effort extended to improve breeding success, to improve and maintain a higher population over time, it is also necessary to ensure that the wintering habitat, where birds spend most of their time, is secure. On the wintering grounds, the shoreline areas used by wintering piping plovers are being developed, stabilized, or otherwise altered, making it unsuitable. Even in areas where habitat conditions are appropriate, human disturbance on beaches may negatively impact piping plovers' energy budget, as they may spend more time being vigilant and less time in foraging and roosting behavior. In many cases, the disturbance is severe enough, that piping plovers appear to avoid some areas altogether. Threats on the wintering grounds may impact piping plovers' breeding success if they start migration or arrive at the breeding grounds with a poor body condition. 5) Analysis of the Species Likely to be Affected The proposed action has the potential to adversely affect wintering and migrating piping plovers and their habitat from all breeding populations that may use the Action Area. The Atlantic Coast breeding population of piping plover is listed as threatened, while the Great Lakes breeding population is listed as endangered. Potential effects to piping plover include direct loss of 45 foraging and roosting habitat in the Action Area and attraction of predators due to food waste from the construction crew. Plovers face predation by avian and mammalian predators that are present year-round on the wintering and nesting grounds. Although the piping plover is not currently known to nest in the Action Area, the stabilization of the shoreline may also result in less suitable nesting habitat for all shorebirds, including the piping plover. B. Environmental Baseline North Carolina barrier beaches are part of a complex and dynamic coastal system that continually respond to inlets, tides, waves, erosion and deposition, longshore sediment transport, and depletion, fluctuations in sea level, and weather events. The location and shape of the coastline perpetually adjusts to these physical forces. Winds move sediment across the dry beach forming dunes and the island interior landscape. The natural communities contain plants and animals that are subject to shoreline erosion and deposition, salt spray, wind, drought conditions, and sandy soils. Vegetative communities include foredunes, primary and secondary dunes, interdunal swales, sand pine scrub, and maritime forests. During storm events, overwash across the barrier islands is common, depositing sediments on the bayside, clearing vegetation and increasing the amount of open, sandflat habitat ideal for shoreline dependent shorebirds. However, the protection or persistence of these important natural land forms, processes, and wildlife resources is often in conflict with long-term beach stabilization projects and their indirect effects, i.e., increases in residential development, infrastructure, and public recreational uses, and preclusion of overwash which limits the creation of open sand flats preferred by piping plovers. 1) Status of the Species within the Action Area On Oak Island, the 2006International Piping Plover Census surveys documented no wintering piping plovers, and no breeding piping plovers (Elliott-Smith et al. 2009). However, surveys were conducted only on one date during each season. The NCWRC conducted coastwide surveys for breeding piping plover between June 1 and June 9,2014. In North Carolina in2014, 65 nesting pairs were detected, 14 chicks fledged, and the estimated productivity was 0.22 fledglings/pair. Ninety-four (94) percent of Piping Plover pairs nested within Cape Hatteras and Cape Lookout National Seashores in 2014 (Schweitzer and Abraham,2014). Data provided by the Town of Oak Island's consultant indicate as many as two piping plovers during the summer of 2001 on Oak Island, and as many as three piping plovers in the Lockwoods Folly Inlet areainthis same span of time (Oak Island or Holden Beach east). It is unclear from the data how many piping plovers were documented within the Action Area. 46 Critical Habitat Unit NC- 16 The critical habitat in the project area has been relatively undisturbed since designation in 2001. It is unclear whether the Corps' dredging of Lockwoods Folly Inlet and/or the AIWW has resulted in impacts to the critical habitat unit. Although various planning efforts have proposed dredging or nourishment within the critical habitat unit over the past decade, to the Service's knowledge, no destruction of critical habitat has occurred. As is expected in a dynamic inlet shoreline area, natural coastal processes have altered the location and configuration ofthe intertidal shoals and other PCEs within the unit. However, it does not appear that the general extent of critical habitat has been previously affected. The proposed project will destroy approximately 3.49 acres of the approximately 9O-acre critical habitat unit. This critical habitat unit is one of 141 designated critical habitat units for wintering piping plovers in the southeastem United States, and the second smallest of the 18 designated critical habitat units in North Carolina. In North Carolina, 2I,083 acres of critical habitat for wintering piping plovers was designated. Some of this acreage has been affected in the past by activities such as dredging, beach nourishment, and jetty construction. However, most of the critical habitat units in North Carolina remain unaffected by development. 2) Factors affecting the species environment within the Action Area A wide range of recent and on-going activities have altered the proposed Action Area and, to a greater extent, the North Carolina coastline, and many more are proposed along the coastline for the near future. Table 6 lists the most recent projects, within the past 5 years. 47 Table 6. Actions that have occurred in the Action Area in the last five years.

Unknown amount of beach shoreline Nourishment activities widen beaches, change their sedimentology and stratigraphy, alter coastal processes and often plug dune gaps and remove overwash areas. The Brunswick County Beaches project was authorizedby Public Law 89-789 (I.{ovember 6, 1966), for the purposes of hurricane wave protection and beach erosion control. However, no work has been conducted under the authorized project. 48 Inlet dredging activities alter the sediment dynamics on adjacent shorelines and stabilize these dynamic environments; beach disposal of dredge material further alters the natural habitat adjacent to inlets. Estuarine dredging of navigational channels can alter water circulation pattems and sediment transport pathways, as well as increase the frequency and magnitude of boat wakes; sound-side sand or mud flats may be impacted by increased erosion rates as a result. Historically, there has been a Federal navigation project in the Lockwoods Folly Inlet and AIWW for decades, and the Corps dredges the inlet at least annually. In some sases, the inlet is dredged using a sidecast dredge, such as the Dredge Merritt. In an unknown number of dredging events, the sediment has been placed on Oak Island using pipelines. Beach scraping can artificially steepen beaches, stabilize dune scarps, plug dune gaps, and redistribute sediment distribution patterns. Artificial dune building, often a product of beach scraping, removes low-lying overwash areas and dune gaps. As chronic erosion catches up to structures throughout the Action Area, artificial dune systems are constructed and maintained to protect beachfront structures either by sand fencing or fill placement. Beach scraping or bulldozing has become more frequent on North Carolina beaches in the past 20 years, in response to storms and the continuing retreat of the shoreline with rising sea level. These activities primarily occur during the winter months. Artificial dune or berm systems have been constructed and maintained in several areas. These dunes make the artificial dune ridge function like a seawall that blocks natural beach retreat. evolution. and overwash. Beach raking: Man-made beach cleaning and raking machines effectively remove seaweed, fish, glass, syringes, plastic, cans, cigarettes, shells, stone, wood, and virtually any unwanted debris (Barber Beach Cleaning Equipment 2009). These efforts may remove accumulated wrack, topographic depressions, and sparse vegetation nodes used by roosting and foraging piping plovers. Removal of wrack also eliminates a beach's natural sand-trapping abilities, further destabilizing the beach. In addition, sand adhering to seaweed and trapped in the cracks and crevices of wrack is removed from the beach. Although the amount of sand lost due to single sweeping actions may be small, it adds up considerably over a period of years (Nordstrom et al. 2006;Neal et al.2007). Beach cleaning or grooming can result in abnormally broad unvegetated zones that are inhospitable to dune formation or plant colonization, thereby enhancing the likelihood of erosion (Defreo et al. 2009). The applicant has indicated that beach raking is targeted only towards removal of rock from previous nourishment effofts. Pedestrian use of the Beach: There are a number of potential sources of pedestrians and pets, including those individuals originating from beachfront and nearby residences. Sand nourishment: The beaches of Oak Island are regularly nourished with sand from the Corps and other dredging projects. 49 Shoreline stabilization: Sandbags on private properties provide stabilization to the shoreline of Oak Island. C.EFFECTS OF THE ACTION This section is an analysis of the beneficial, direct and indirect effects of the proposed action on migrating and wintering piping plovers within the Action Area. The analysis includes effects interrelated and interdependent of the project activities. An interrelated activity is an activity that is part of a proposed action and depends on the proposed activity. An interdependent activity is an activity that has no independent utility apart from the action. 1) Factors to be considered The proposed project will occur within habitat for migrating and wintering piping plovers and construction will occur during a portion of the migration and winter seasons. Long-term and permanent impacts could preclude the creation of new habitat and increase recreational disturbance. Short-term and temporary impacts to piping plovers could result from project work disturbing roosting plovers and degrading currently occupied adjacent foraging areas. Proximity of the action: Dredging of the intertidal shoals and placement of sand on 4,400 feet of beach would occur within Critical Habitat Unit NC-16, within and adjacent to foraging and roosting habitats for migrating or wintering piping plovers. Distribution: Project construction activities that may impact migrants and the wintering population of piping plovers on Oak Island would occur within Critical Habitat Unit NC-16, in the intertidal shoals along Eastern Channel and along the shoreline of Oak Island. Timing: The timing of project construction could directly and indirectly impact migrating and wintering piping plovers. Piping plovers may be present year-round in the Action Area, however, the timing of project activities will likely occur during the migration and wintering period. Nature qf the effect: The effects of the project construction include a long-term reduction in foraging habitat, a long-term decreased rate of change that may preclude habitat creation. A decrease in the survival of piping plovers on the migration and winter grounds due to the lack of optimal habitat may contribute to decreased survival rates, decreased productivity on the breeding grounds, and increased vulnerability to the three populations. 50 The Service expects the action will result in direct and indirect, long-term effects to piping plovers. In the construction area, there will be direct loss of piping plover Critical Habitat Unit NC-16, and of foraging and roosting habitat. The Service expects there may be morphological changes to adjacent piping plover habitat, including roosting and foraging habitat. Activities that affect or alter the use of optimal habitat or increase disturbance to the species may decrease the survival and recovery potential of the piping plover. Duration: Dredging and sand nourishment under this authorizationmay occur every two to six years, and each event is expected to take 30 to 60 days to complete. After each dredging event, the loss of Critical Habitat in the intertidal shoals will not be recovered unless and until sand movement again creates shoals in the project area. The mean linear distance moved by wintering plovers from their core area is estimated to be approximately 2.1 miles (Drake et al. 2001), suggesting they could be negatively impacted by temporary disturbances anywhere in their core habitat area. Disturbance -frequencv: Disturbance from construction activities will occur every two to six years for the life of the permit. Disturbance intensit.v and severi\t: Project construction is anticipated to be conducted during portions of the piping plover migration and winter seasons. Conservation measures have been incorporated into the project to minimize impacts. The Action Area encompasses ar area in the nesting and wintering range of the piping plover. The severity is likely to be slight, as plovers located within the Action Area are expected to move outside of the construction zone due to disturbance; therefore, no plovers are expected to be directly taken as a result of this action. 2) Analyses for effects of the action Bene-ficial qffects: For some highly eroded beaches, sand placement will have a beneficial effect on the habitat's ability to support wintering piping plovers. Narrow beaches that do not support a productive wrack line may see an improvement in foraging habitat available to piping plovers following sand placement. The addition of sand to the sediment budget may also increase a sand- starved beach's likelihood of developing habitat features valued by piping plovers, including washover fans and emergent nearshore sand bars. Direct e-ffects: Direct effects are those direct or immediate effects of a project on the species or its habitat. Dredging of this channel requires the removal of emergent shoals that may have formed over time. In this case, the dredging activities will result in a complete take of that habitat. However, this take could be either temporary or more permanent in nature depending upon the location of future shoaling within the inlet. 51 I The construction window will extend through the piping plover migration and winter season and into the nesting season. Since piping plovers can be present on these beaches year-round, construction is likely to occur while this species is utilizing these beaches and associated habitats. Heavy machinery and equipment (e.g., dredges, trucks and bulldozers operating in Action Area) may adversely affect piping plovers in the Action Area by disturbance and disruption of normal activities such as roosting and foraging, and possibly forcing birds to expend valuable energy reserves to seek available habitat elsewhere. Burial and suffocation of invertebrate species will occur during the sand placement, and will affect at least 4,400lf of shoreline. The dredging of the intertidal shoals in Eastern Channel will destroy approximately 3.49 acres of piping plover critical habitat. However, the rest of the critical habitat unit should remain functional to serve the intended conservation role for the piping plover. Indirect ef-fects.' The proposed project includes dredging of piping plover critical habitat and beach renourishment as protective elements against shoreline erosion to protect man-made infrastructure. Indirect effects include reducing the potential for the formation of optimal habitats. The proposed project may limit the creation of optimal foraging and roosting habitat, and may increase the attractiveness of these beaches for recreation increasing recreational pressures within the Action Area. Recreational activities that potentially adversely affect plovers include disturbance by unleashed pets and increased pedestrian use. 3) Species' response to the proposed action The Service anticipates potential adverse effects throughout the Action Area by limiting proximity to roosting, foraging, and nesting habitat and degrading occupied foraging habitat. Elliott and Teas (1996) found a significant difference in actions between piping plovers encountering pedestrians and those not'bncountering pedestrians. Piping plover encountering pedestrians spend proportionately more time in non-foraging behavior. This study suggests that interactions with pedestrians on beaches cause birds to shift their activities from calorie acquisition to calorie expenditure. In winter and migration sites, human disturbance continues to decrease the amount of undisturbed habitat and appears to limit local piping plover abundance (Zonick and Ryan 1996). Disturbance also reduces the time migrating shorebirds spend foraging (Burger 1991). Pfister et aL (1992) implicate disturbance as a factor in the long-term decline of migrating shorebirds at staging areas. While piping plover migration patterns and needs remain poorly understood and occupancy of a particular habitat may involve shorter periods relative to wintering, information 52 about the energetics of avian migration indicates that this might be a particularly critical time in the species' life cycle. D.Cumulative Effects This project occurs on non-federal lands. Cumulative effects include the effects of future State, tribal, local, or private actions that are reasonably certain to occur in the Action Area considered in this biological opinion, It is reasonable to expect continued shoreline stabilization and beach renourishment projects in this arcainthe future since erosion and sea-level rise increases would impact the existing beachfront development. However, the Service is unaware of any other planned projects that may affect designated critical habitat for wintering piping plovers. ilI. CONCLUSION After reviewing the current status of the northem Great Plains, Great Lakes, and Atlantic Coast wintering piping plover populations, the environmental baseline for the Action Area, the effects of the proposed activities, the proposed Conservation Measures, and the cumulative effects, it is the Service's biological opinion that implementation of these actions, as proposed, is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of the piping plover. For the piping plover, dredging and sand placement activities will affect 3 .49 aqes of critical habitat and 4,400 lf of shoreline. It is the Service's biological opinion that implementation of these actions, as proposed, is not likely to adversely modify piping plover critical habitat. Although 3.49 acres of the approximately 90- acre critical habitat unit will be destroyed by the project, the rest of the critical habitat unit should remain functional to serve the intended conservation role for the piping plover. INCIDENTAL TAKE STATEMENT Section 9 of the Act and Federal regulation pursuant to section 4(d) of the Act prohibit the take of endangered or threatened species, respectively, without special exemption. Take is defined as to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. Harm is further defined by the Service to include significant habitat modification or degradation that results in death or injury to listed species by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding, or sheltering. Harass is defined by the Service as intentional or negligent actions that create the likelihood of injury to listed species to such an extent as to significantly disrupt normal behavior patterns which include, but are not limited to, breeding, feeding, or sheltering. Incidental take is defined as take that is incidental to, and not the purpose of, carrying out an otherwise lawful activity. Under the 53 terms of section 7(b)(4) and section 7(o)(2), taking that is incidental to and not intended as part of the agency action is not considered to be prohibited under the Act provided that such taking is in compliance with the terms and conditions of this incidental take statement. The measures described below in Sections IV and V are non-discretionary, and must be implemented by the Corps so that they become binding conditions of any grant or permit issued to the Applicant, as appropriate, for the exemption in section 7(o)(2) to apply. The Corps has a continuing duty to regulate the activity covered by this incidental take statement. If the Corps (1) fails to assume and implement the terms and conditions or (2) fails to require the Applicant to adhere to the terms and conditions of the incidental take statement through enforceable terms that are added to the permit or grant document, the protective coverage of section 7(o)(2) may lapse. In order to monitor the impact of incidentaltake, the Corps must report the progress of the action and its impacts on the species to the Service as specified in the incidental take statement [50 CFR $402.14(iX3)1. Sections l(b)(4) andT(o)(2) of the Act generally do not apply to listed plant species. However, limited protection of listed plants from take is provided to the extent that the Act prohibits the removal and reduction to possession of Federally listed endangered plants or the malicious damage of such plants on areas under Federal jurisdiction, or the destruction of endangered plants on non-Federal areas in violation of state law or regulation, or in the course of any violation of a State criminal trespass law. AMOUNT OR EXTENT OF TAKE Amount or Extent of Take - Piping Plover It is difficult for the Service to estimate the exact number of piping plovers that could be migrating through or wintering within the Action Area at any point in time and place during and after project construction and maintenance events. Disturbance to suitable habitat resulting from dredging and placement of sand would affect the ability of an undetermined number of piping plovers to find suitable foraging and roosting habitat during construction and maintenance for an unknown length of time after construction. The Service anticipates that directly and indirectly an unspecified amount of piping plovers in 3.49 acres of critical habitat and along 4,400lf of shoreline, all at some point, potentially usable by piping plovers, could be taken in the form of habitat loss as a result of this proposed action; however, incidental take of piping plovers will be difficult to detect for the following reasons: 54 (1) harassment to the level of harm may only be apparent on the breeding grounds the following year; and (2) dead plovers may be carried away by waves or predators. The level of take of this species can be anticipated by the proposed activities because: (1) piping plovers migrate through and winter in the Action Area; (2) the dredging of intertidal shoals is a direct loss of piping plover critical habita! (3) the placement of the constructed beach is expected to affect the coastal morphology and prevent early successional stages, thereby precluding the maintenance and creation of additional recovery habitat; (4) increased levels of pedestrian disturbance may be expected; and (5) a temporary reduction of food base will occur. The Service has reviewed the biological information and other information relevant to this action. The take is expected in the form of harm and harassment because of: (1) decreased fitness and survivorship of plovers due to loss and degradation of foraging and roosting habitat; (2) decreased fitness and survivorship of plovers attempting to migrate to breeding grounds due to loss and degradation of foraging and roosting habitat. EFFECT OF THE TAKE Piping Plovers In the accompanying biological opinion, the Service determined that this level of anticipated take is not likely to result in jeopardy to the piping plover species. Incidental take of piping plovers is anticipated to occur within 3.49 acres of critical habitat and along approximately 4,400 feet of shoreline. TV.REASONABLE AND PRUDENT MEASURES The Service believes the following reasonable and prudent measures (RPMs) are necessary and appropriate to minimize take of piping plovers. Unless specifically addressed below, these RPMs are applicable for the initial dredging and placement of sand, and for any maintenance activities for the life of the permit. If the Applicant is unable to comply with the RPMs and Terms and Conditions, the Corps as the regulatory authority may inform the Service why the 55 RPM or Term and Condition is not reasonable and prudent for the specific project or activity and request exception under the biological opinion. RPMs L After initial construction, and for the life of the permit, all maintenance dredging and sand placement activities must be conducted within the winter work window Q.{ovember 16 to March 3 1), unless necessitated by an emergency condition and allowed after consultation with the Service. 2. All derelict coastal armoring geotextile material and other debris must be removed from the beach to the maximum extent possible, prior to construction. 3. Conservation Measures included in the permit application/project plans must be implemented in the proposed project. If a RPM and Term and Condition address the same requirement, the requirements of the RPM and Term and Condition take precedent over the Conservation Measure. 4. Predator-proof trash receptacles must be installed and maintained at all beach access points used for the project construction, to minimize the potential for attracting predators of piping plovers. 5. All personnel involved in the construction or sand placement process along the beach shall be trained to recognize the presence of piping plovers prior to initiation of work on the beach. Before start of work each morning, a visual survey must be conducted in the area of work for that day, to determine if piping plovers are present. Construction operations shall not begin until individual plovers have exited the work area for the day. 6. A bird monitoring plan must be developed to monitor piping plover, red knot, waterbirds, colonial waterbirds and other shorebirds during and after construction. Monitoring must be conducted for a minimum of three (3) full years past the completion of construction, or until the end of the shorebird nesting season (August 31) of the third year after construction, whichever is later. Based on results of the monitoring, continued bird monitoring may also be required during maintenance events. Post-construction monitoring may only be ceased after the review of at least three years' worth of data and approval by the USACE, USFWS, NCDCM, and NCWRC. 56 V. TERMS AND CONDITIONS In order to be exempt from the prohibitions of section 9 of the Act, the Corps must comply with the following terms and conditions, which implement the RPMs described above and outline required reporting/monitoring requirements. These terms and conditions are non-discretionary. Unless addressed specifically below, the terms and conditions are applicable for the initial dredging and placement of sand, and for any maintenance activities for the life of the permit. Terms and Conditions - All Species 1. After initial construction, and for the life of the permit, all maintenance dredging and sand placement activities must be conducted within the winter work window Q'{ovember 16 to March 31), unless necessitated by an emergency condition and allowed after consultation with the Service. 2. All derelict coastal armoring geotextile material and other debris must be removed from the beach to the maximum extent possible, prior to any construction. 3. Conservation Measures included in the permit application/project plans must be implemented in the proposed project. If a RPM and Term and Condition address the same requirement, the requirements of the RPM and Term and Condition take precedent over the Conservation Measure. 4. Predator-proof trash receptacles must be installed and maintained during construction at all beach access points used for the project construction and any maintenance events, to minimize the potential for attracting predators of piping plovers. All contractors conducting the work must provide predator-proof trash receptacles for the construction workers. All contractors and their employees must be briefed on the importance of not littering and keeping the Action Area free of trash and debris. See the Appendix for examples of suitable receptacles. 5. All personnel involved in the construction or sand placement process along the beach shall be trained to recognize the presence of piping plovers prior to initiation of work on the beach. Before start of work each morning, a visual survey must be conducted in the area of work for that day, to determine if piping plovers are present. If plovers are present in the work area, careful movement of equipment in the early morning hours should allow those individuals to move out of the area. Construction operations shall not begin until individual plovers have exited the work area for the day. If piping plovers are 57 observed, the observer shall make a note on the Quality Assurance form for that day, and submit the information to the Corps and the Service's Raleigh Field Office the following day. See REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, below. 6. A bird monitoring plan must be developed to monitor piping plover, red knot, waterbirds, colonial waterbirds, and other shorebirds during and after construction. Monitoring must be conducted for a minimum of three (3) full years past the completion of construction, or until the end of the shorebird nesting season (August 31) of the third year after construction, whichever is later. Based on results of the monitoring, continued bird monitoring may also be required during maintenance events. Post-construction monitoring may only be ceased after the review of at least three years' worth of data and approval by the USACE, USFWS, NCDCM, and NCWRC. a. The bird monitoring plan must be submitted for review and approval to the USACE, USFWS, NCDCM, and NCWRC, at least 15 days prior to the anticipated start of construction. b. During construction, bird monitoring must be conducted weekly. For at least three years after construction is completed, bimonthly (twice-monthly) bird surveys shall be conducted in all intertidal and shoreline areas along Lockwood Folly Inlet. Transects shall be established to encompass, at a minimum, all intertidal areas in the vicinity of Eastem Channel and Lockwoods Folly Inlet on both sides of the inlet (Oak Island, Sheep Island, and Holden Beach), and the ocean shoreline from Lockwoods Folly Inlet east to approximately 6001 West Beach Drive (or the eastern end of the westemmost sand placement area). c. Field observations must be conducted during daylight hours, and primarily during high tide. d. Shorebird identification, especially when in non-breeding plumage, can be difficult. The person(s) conducting the suruey must demonstrate the qualifications and ability to identify shorebird species and be able to provide the information listed below. The bird monitoring plan should include the collection and reporting of the following: i. Date, location, time of day, weather, and tide cycle when survey was conducted; ii. Latitude and longitude of observed piping plover and red knot locations (decimal degrees preferred); iii. Any color bands observed on piping plovers or red knots or other birds; iv. Behavior (e.g., foraging, roosting, preening, bathing, flying, aggression, walking, courtship, copulation); v. Landscape features(s) where birds are located (e.g., inlet spit, tidal creeks, shoals, lagoon shoreline); 58 vi. Habitat features(s) used by birds when observed (e.g., intertidal, fresh wrack, old wrack, dune, mid-beach, vegetation); vii. Substrata used by birds (e.g., sand, mud/sand, mud, algal mat); and viii. The amount and type of recreational use (e.g., people, dogs on or off leash, vehicles, kite-boarders). e. All monitoring information shall be provided in standardized form on an Excel spreadsheet. Monitoring results shall be submitted (datasheets, maps, database) on standard electronic media (e.g., CD, DVD) to the Raleigh Field Office. Please see REPORTING REQUIREMENTS below, for more information. VI.

AND POLICIES The USFWS will not refer the incidental take of any migratory bird for prosecution under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, as amended (16 USC S 703-712), if such take is in compliance with the terms and conditions specified herein. Take resulting from activities that are not in conformance with the Corps permit or this biological opinion (e.g. deliberate harassment of wildlife, etc.) are not considered parl of the proposed action and are not covered by this incidental take statement and may be subject to enforcement action against the individual responsible for the act. VIII. CONSERVATION RECOMMENDATIONS Section 7(a)(I) of the Act directs Federal agencies to utilize their authorities to further the purposes of the Act by carrying out conservation programs for the benefit of endangered and threatened species. Conservation recommendations are discretionary agency activities to minimize or avoid adverse effects of a proposed action on listed species or critical habitat, to help implement recovery plans, or to develop information. For the benef,rt of the piping plover, the Service recommends the following conservation recommendations: L Construction activities for this project and similar future projects should be planned to take place outside the shorebird nesting season. The Applicant should maintain suitable piping plover migrating and wintering habitat. Natural accretion at inlets should be allowed to remain. Accreting sand spits on barrier islands provide excellent foraging habitat for migrating and wintering plovers. A conservation/education display sign would be helpful in educating local beach users about the coastal beach ecosystem and associated rare species. The sign could highlight the piping plovers life history and basic biology and ways recreationists can assist in species protection efforts (e.g., keeping pets on a leash, removing trash to sealed refuse containers, etc.). The Service would be willing to assist the Applicant in the development of such a sign, in cooperation with NCWRC, interested non-governmental stakeholders (i.e., National Audubon Society), the Corps, and the other interested stakeholders (i.e., propefty owners, etc.). 2. aJ. 60 In order for the Service to be kept informed of actions minimizing or avoiding adverse effects or benefitting listed species or their habitats, the Service requests notification of the implementation of any conservation recommendations. IX. REINITIATION NOTICE _ CLOSING STATEMENT This concludes formal consultation on the action outlined in the request, As provided in 50 CFR 5402.16,reinitiation of formal consultation is required where discretionary Federal agency involvement or control over the action has been retained (or is authorizedby law) and if: (1) the amount or extent of incidental take is exceeded; (2) new information reveals effects of the agency action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner or to an extent not considered in this opinion or the project has not been completed within five years of the issuance of this biological opinion; (3) the agency action is subsequently modified in a manner that causes an effect to the listed species or critical habitat not considered in this opinion; or (4) a new species is listed or critical habitat designated that may be affected by the action. In instances where the amount or extent of incidental take is exceeded, any operations causing such take must cease pending reinitiation. For this biological opinion, the incidental take will be exceeded when the stabilization of beach extends beyond the project's authorized boundaries (4,400 lf of beach andlor 3.49 acre of intertidal shoals). Incidental take of an undetermined number of piping plovers has been exempted from the prohibitions of section 9 by this opinion. 6I LITERATURE CITED Amirault, D.L., F. Shaffer, K. Baker, A.
