Name of Project: Tuckasegee Powerhouse Access Area 3a. Names recorded on Deed: Nantahala Power & Light Co. (Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC) B. Project Information and Prior Project History 133. Project Description: 3a.: Existing conditions at the site are generally grassed with the gravel road (Disney Lane) bisecting the project area. The project site area is bounded on the north by the West Fork Tuckasegee River and on the west by the powerhouse discharge canel. Adjacent properties to the east are undeveloped pasture and wooded areas and to the south and west are undeveloped wooded areas. 3d.: The purpose of this project is provide the public with a boat ramp access area to the West Fork Tuckasegee River near Tuckasegee, NC. The project is within Duke Energy's FERC License #2868. As part of their FERC Approved Recreation Management Plan, Duke Energy has agreed to make improvement and upgrades. Duke Energy developed a Recreation Management Plan that was reviewed and approved by Federal, State, Local agencies, and stakeholders. The plan was approved on July 24, 2012. This location at the Tuckasegee Powerhouse Access Area was one of several free public recreation areas to be installed along the Tuckasegee River. This new boat ramp will be used by the public to provide access for drift boats, canoes, jon boats, kayaks, and other recreastional boats into the West Fork Tuckasegee River. 3e.: Duke Energy will install a concrete boat ramp and a gravel parking lot. American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant parking and sidewalk will be provided to the ramp area. The boat ramp will be approximately 14 feet wide, approximately 75 feet long, 10 inches thick with stone underneath. The concrete ramp will be constructed using a "pour and push" method, where the ramp is formed and poured upland on shore and then pushed into its final location after the concrete has properly cured. Appropriate grading equipment will be utilized to level the area to the boat ramp specifications. Appropriate sediment and erosion protection best management practices (BMPs) will be utilized to protect the waters of the West Fork Tuckasegee River. Approvals for land disturbance activities and floodplain development permits have been be obtained from Jackson County as required. Copies attached to PCN. E. Stormwater Management & Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWQ) 3. Certified Local Government Review 3b.: Jackson County has jurisdiction for land disturbance activities. Land Development Application with Jackson County has been approved as a Jackson County Floodplain Development Permit. All permits have been approved and are attached to this application. F. Supplementary Information 5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement) 5d.: Mr. Mark Cantrell of the USFWS Asheville Field Office reviewed construction plans. He identified endangered species Appalachian elktoe is located in a downstream reach of the Tuckasegee River. He concluded the project will have no effect on the Appalachian elktoe or will it constitute an adverse modification of critical habitat. Cantrell letter attached. 7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement) 7b.: Based on existing disturbance from the leveling of the property and the minimal grading for the installation of the powerhouse in the 1950's, we do not believe there are any cultural resource issues with the property. It is Duke Energy's policy and federal law mandate that if any historic or cultural resources are discovered during construction, then all construction activities will immediately cease. All appropriate individuals and agencies will then be notified.

Hunter Davis & Floyd, Inc. 816 East Durst Ave. Greenwood, SC 29649 Dear Mr. Hunter: Asheville Field Office 160 Zillicoa Street Asheville, North Carolina 28801 August 8, 2012 Subject: Comments on a review of construction plans, Duke Energy Tuckasegee River Access Area Project - Powerhouse Access Area (Little Glenville), Jackson County, North Carolina. We have reviewed the information provided for construction of facilities to enhance river access at a site on the West Fork Tuckasegee River at the Tuckasegee Development, described as the Powerhouse Access Area in Jackson County, NC. The information included detailed grading and erosion control plan. The facilities will be constructed to fulfill provisions of the Tuckasegee Cooperative Stakeholders Agreement. The proposed improvements will provide river access in the area of the Tuckasegee Area Hydroelectric Projects. Key Design Features. According to my review of the drawings, the key features include: - Excavation and fill beyond the high -water mark will be very limited. - Retention and protection during construction of natural riparian vegetation. Native shoreline vegetation should be left unaltered as much as possible. The Vegetative Buffer Maintenance Plan described in the Grading and Erosion Control Plan will provide for revegetation of riparian buffer. - Stringent erosion - control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed and should be maintained until project completion in the upland areas and along the shoreline construction area in the riparian portions of the project. No excavated material should be stockpiled where sediment will erode to surface waters. We recommend additional measures: The Vegetative Buffer Maintenance Plan includes a statement that "4) Two to Three times a year, vegetative huffer will he mowed and the clippings harvested t promote the growth of thick vegetation..." We do not agree with this element of the maintenance plan and we do not recommend mowing; we recommend control of invasive exotic species only. Instead, we recommend revegetation with native deep- rooted species. Riparian buffers should be maintained or re- established with plantings of natives species such as silky dogwood, and multi -stem river birch, wherever possible. Please communicate the importance of erosion control and other design features and construction phasing to all contractors and staff on site. 2. We recommend grading to feature a vegetated swale area (raingarden) for stormwater reduction. Again, vegetative plantings should feature native species. 3. If lighting is installed and maintained at the marina in the future, it should be with low- pressure sodium (LPS) lighting. We are concerned about the potential for overlighting and the potential adverse effects on fish and wildlife resources in the area. A dark nighttime sky is essential. Contributions of light from the earth (both direct emissions and reflected light) brighten the night sky background. This brightening also greatly diminishes the view of the sky for migrating birds, moths, bats, and the general public. The type of light source chosen for outdoor lighting is important because some types may result in more adverse effects than others. We prefer the LPS, as proposed; its nearly monochromatic yellow light can be easily filtered out. Other advantages of LPS are that the wavelength emitted is most near the point where the human eye is most sensitive and efficient, and it is also the most energy - efficient light source available. All outdoor fixtures should be fully shielded and installed in such a way that no light is emitted above a horizontal plane running through the lowest part of the fixture. Thus, glare, light trespass, and light pollution will be minimized, and energy savings will be maximized. The design of the fixtures should include time controls or occupancy sensors to turn lamps off when not needed (LPS has the ability to restrike immediately after a momentary power failure, while high- pressure sodium and metal halide lamps must cool before restriking). We recommend safe, energy - efficient lighting that minimizes impacts to fish and wildlife resources. The use of solar panels could eliminate the need for further extension of distribution lines, while conserving energy. 4. Wet concrete is toxic to aquatic organisms. During any construction, wet concrete should not be allowed to come in contact with surface waters. The boat ramp should be constructed using a "pour and push" method, where the ramp is formed and poured on shore, then pushed into its final place after the concrete has sufficiently cured. Endangered Species Act. We have records of the endangered Appalachian elktoe (Alasmidonta raveneliana) in a downstream reach of the Tuckasegee River, and there is designated critical habitat for this species. We also have records of the Candidate species Sicklefin redhorse (Moxostoma sp.) from the downstream area. Based on our knowledge of the site, the drawings, the disance to downstream habitats, and the commitment to construct this facility with the utmost care and erosion control, we find the proposed project will have no effect on the Appalachian elktoe, nor will it constitute an adverse modification of critical habitat. Conclusion. Based on our review of the information provided, we do not object to the proposed access area plans. Given the proximity of this project to aquatic environments, we want to emphasize that stringent measures should be in place to control sediment and erosion. We look forward to working with you and Duke Energy to ensure that our recommendations are implemented and that impacts to fish and wildlife resources are minimized.
