Army Corps of Engineers 3331 Heritage Trade Drive, Suite 105 Wake Forest, NC 27587 Subject: Application for Section 404 Nationwide Permit 14 and Section 401 Water Quality Certification for the Proposed Intersection Improvements at SR 2320 and Shepard School Road, Wake County Dear Mr. Phillips: On behalf of the Town of Zebulon, WSP USA has completed a Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) application for the proposed Intersection Improvements at SR 2320 and Shepard School Road project and requests reverification from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) and North Carolina Division of Water Resources (DWR) to use a Nationwide Permit 14 and the associated 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) for impacts to jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. that will result from the project. A Nationwide Permit 14 was approved by the USACE on January 13, 2022 and a 401 WQC was approved by NCDWR on December 9, 2021 but the project was not started prior to permit expiration and construction has not commenced. The Town of Zebulon is seeking to improve vehicular and pedestrian safety at the SR 2320 (Old Bunn Road/Proctor Street) and Shepard School Road intersection by adding turn lanes, sidewalks, and pedestrian and traffic signals. The project design is the same as the previously permitted design with the exception of Impact Site S1. Changes at S 1 include installation of a Dominion Energy subsurface gas line relocation and additional stream bank stabilization. The gas line will cross the jurisdictional stream perpendicularly immediately upstream of the inlet of the proposed 48" culvert extension, and within the footprint of the previously approved channel stabilization impacts. The gas line crossing of the stream will be installed by open cutting the channel and back filling the trench. Stream impacts associated within this gas line installation will be contained wholly within the previously approved channel impact area, therefore, the gas line will not result in additional permanent loss of waters of the U.S. The gas line relocation will be conducted just prior to the culvert extension. The construction corridor for the gas line relocation will be limited to a width of 30 feet. In addition to the gas line, at Impact Site S1, 36 LF of temporary stream impacts included in the prior permit approval has been changed to permanent stream bank stabilization upstream of the proposed 48" culvert extension. This change was necessitated by the proximity of the roadway fill slopes to this channel. Any temporary impacts to the stream channel resulting from the gas line installation and stream bank stabilization will be restored to preconstruction contours. The design and impacts at Site S2 and Site S3 are unchanged from the previously permitted design. In total, the project will result in 83 linear feet (<0.01 acre) of permanent loss of stream (including 38 linear feet of jurisdictional ditch), 91 linear feet (<0.01 acre) of stream bank stabilization, 23 linear feet of temporary stream impacts (<0.01 acre), and 0.02 acre of temporary wetland impacts. WSP USA Suite 610 1001 Morehead Square Drive Charlotte, NC 28203 Tel.: +1 980 701-3161 Fax: +1 704 342-8472 WSP.Com NN %% ) Mr. Phillips March 23, 2023 Mitigation for losses of Waters of the U.S. is not proposed for this project because permanent stream loss will not exceed 0.2 acre and there will be no permanent wetland impacts. The Town previously acquired mitigate credits for stream buffer impacts from the Kittrell Hill Mitigation Bank, including 1,594 square feet of Zone 1 impacts at a 3:1 ratio and 700 square feet of Zone 2 impacts at a 1.5:1 ratio. No cha4ges to buffer impacts are proposed. Please see the enclosed documents as part of the PCN application: • Appendix A: Applicant Information 1.

I No Wetlands within Project Limits? Yes Project Description Project Length (lin. miles or feet): 0.17 miles Surrounding Land Use: lResidential Proposed Project Existing Site Project Built -Upon Area (ac.) 2.4 ac. 1.2 ac. Typical Cross Section Description: -L- will have 2-12' paved lanes with a 4' paved open shoulder/ditch section on the left; a 12' ctr. It. turn lane a 12' rt. turn lane along with a 5' concrete sidewalk and C&G. -Y- will feature 2-12' paved lanes w/a 12' ctr It. turn lane with C&G on both sides w/a 5' concrete sidewalk. North of the intersection, -Y- transitions from the C&G section to an open shoulder/ditch section -L- features 2-14' paved lanes with C&G along the right side w/a 4' concrete sidewalk from Sta. 12+75 to 16+66. From 16+66 to 21+70 L has 2-11' paved lanes w/open shoulder/ditch sections. -Y- features 2- 10' lanes w/4' concrete sidewalk on both sides and open shoulder/ditch sections from start to 20+14; and 2-12' paved lanes from Sta. 20+14 to end. Annual Avg Daily Traffic (veh/hr/day): Design/Future: 9800 2040 Existing: 6825 Year: 2022 General Project Narrative: (Description of Minimization of Water Quality Impacts) Along Shepard School Rd (-L-) the roadway has been widened to include a variable turn and median lane and curb and gutter will be installed on both sides. Catch basins will be installed along the curb and gutter and tie into the existing 30" RCP -III near Sta. 14+40. This crosspipe will be collared and extended to proposed roadway fill. By not replacing 30" RCP -III, impacts to Wetland (W1) are minimized to mechanized clearing for roadway construction. Impacts to JS are from pipe extension and channel stabilization at this site. Along Old Bunn Rd (-Y-), a proposed 48" RCP -III crosspipe will replace the existing 30" RCP. Permanent surface water mpacts to the JS, include rip rap at embankment where a lateral 'v' ditch outlets and channel stablization at the inlet of the proposed 48" RCP -III. At the outlet of the proposed 48" RCP -III, there is rip rap at the embankment at the outlet of the ditch along with pipe outlet channel stabilization. The last site of impacts is at the end of the project on -L- RT where a proposed ditch outlets at the wetland boundary and due to construction a segment of the wetland (W2) will require mechanized clearing.

The species list fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). If your project area contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species on this species list, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. If suitable habitat is present, surveys should be conducted to determine the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of this species list and/or North Carolina Natural Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys. New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical habitat. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the Act, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90 days. This verification can be completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed list. The purpose of the Act is to provide a means whereby threatened and endangered species and the ecosystems upon which they depend may be conserved. Under sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) of the Act and its implementing regulations (50 CFR 402 et seq.), Federal agencies are required to utilize their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered 01/19/2023 species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat. A Biological Assessment is required for construction projects (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) that are major Federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment as defined in the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2) (c)). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a biological evaluation similar to a Biological Assessment be prepared to determine whether the project may affect listed or proposed species and/or designated or proposed critical habitat. Recommended contents of a Biological Assessment are described at 50 CFR 402.12. If a Federal agency determines, based on the Biological Assessment or biological evaluation, that listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the proposed project, the agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402. In addition, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species and proposed critical habitat be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or license applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at: http://www.fws.gov/endangered/esa-library/pdf/TOC-GLOS.PDF Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), there are additional responsibilities under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) to protect native birds from project -related impacts. Any activity, intentional or unintentional, resulting in take of migratory birds, including eagles, is prohibited unless otherwise permitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12 and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). For more information regarding these Acts see https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations.php. The MBTA has no provision for allowing take of migratory birds that may be unintentionally killed or injured by otherwise lawful activities. It is the responsibility of the project proponent to comply with these Acts by identifying potential impacts to migratory birds and eagles within applicable NEPA documents (when there is a federal nexus) or a Bird/Eagle Conservation Plan (when there is no federal nexus). Proponents should implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize the production of project -related stressors or minimize the exposure of birds and their resources to the project -related stressors. For more information on avian stressors and recommended conservation measures see https://www.fws.gov/birds/bird-enthusiasts/threats-to- birds.php. In addition to MBTA and BGEPA, Executive Order 13186: Responsibilities of Federal Agencies to Protect Migratory Birds, obligates all Federal agencies that engage in or authorize activities that might affect migratory birds, to minimize those effects and encourage conservation measures that will improve bird populations. Executive Order 13186 provides for the protection of both migratory birds and migratory bird habitat. For information regarding the implementation of Executive Order 13186, please visit https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/ executive-orders/e0-13186. php. 01/19/2023 3 We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Code in the header of this letter with any request for consultation or correspondence about your project that you submit to our office.

Species on this list should be considered in an effects analysis for your project and could include species that exist in another geographic area. For example, certain fish may appear on the species list because a project could affect downstream species. IPaC does not display listed species or critical habitats under the sole jurisdiction of NOAA Fisheriesi, as USFWS does not have the authority to speak on behalf of NOAA and the Department of Commerce.

Intersection Improvements at SR 2320 and Shepard School Road Dear Adam Karagosian: d_ Reid Wilson, Secretary Misty Buchanan Deputy director, Natural Heritage Program NCNHDE-20629 The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above. Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence, the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached `Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here. httl2s //www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Land and Water Fund easement, or Federally - listed species are documented near the project area.
