Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin (USGS Hydrologic Unit 03040104), and comprises approximately
24.5 acres. A previous jurisdictional wetland delineation was performed in Febivary 2011. '1'he
field work Por the current delineation was pet•foimed on April 24, 2015 in compliance with
methodology set forth in the USACE Wetland Delineation Manual (USACE 1987) and
subsequent guidance. This included die use of the four strata Wetland Determination I'orm for
the Eastern Mountains and Piedmont (Version 2.0). Streams were assessed forjurisdiction under
the Clean Water Act using 6eld indicaYions of ordinary high water mark and the NC Division of
Water Quality (NCDWQ) Scream Identification Form Version 4.1 1.
Previously delineated streams and wetlands were field verified for jurisdiction and acci�racy.
Changes to the previous delineation were f7agged and mapped. New or changed wetland
boundaries were delineated using survey flagging at regu(ar locations along the wetland-up(antl
boundary. Previous wetland designations (WA -- WF) were retained and two new features (WG
and W H) were added. All boundaries either form comp(ete polygoi�s, tie to surface water
features such as streams or ponds, or tie to the edge of the study area. New wetland boundaries
were located using sub-meter GPS technology to NCDOT standa3•ds.
Wetland Determination Fonns and NCDWQ Wetland Rating Worksheets were completed for
each type of wetland community encountered. NCDWQ Stream Identification Forms were
completed for each intermittent and small perennial channei (when status was in doubt), and
USACE Stream Quality Assessment Worksheets were completed for each intermittent channel
and degraded perennial channel.
Delineation Results
Figures 2 and 3 present the results of the delineation, including streams, surface waters, and
wetlands. Figure 2 is presented using the Ansonville (2013) US Geological Survey 1:24,000
Quadrangle Map. Figure 3 is presented using aerial photography.
Table 1 presents detailed information on each jurisdictional su•eam within the study area,
inctuding previous delineation ID, status (intermittent or perennial), bankfull measurements,
length within the study area, NCDWQ and USACE data form scores, and latitude/longitude.
Tht•ee jurisdictional streams measuring approximately 2,340 linear feet are present within the
study area.
Table 2 presents detailed information a� each wetland feature including wetland delineation ID,
NC Wetland Assessment Method type, Hydrologic Class, Cowardin Classification, isolated
status, size, represenlative wetland delineation form identifcation, NCDWQ wetland rating
score, and latitude/longitude. A total of 0.95 acres of wetlands are present within the study area.
We request your review of the attached documentation and mapping, and issuance of a
Preli�ninary Jurisdictional Determii�atioi� for tliis project.

I. REQUESTS FOR CORPS APPROVAL OF SURVEY PLAT
Prior to final production of a Plat, the Wilmington District recommends that the Land
Surveyor electronically submit a draft of a Survey Plat to the Corps project manager for
review.
Due to storage limitations of our administrative records, the Corps requires that all hard-
copy submittals include at least one ori�inal Plat (to scaleZ that is no larger than 11"x17"
(the use of match lines for larger tracts acceptable). Additional copies of a plat, including
those larger than 11"x1T', may also be submitted for Corps signature as needed. The
Corps also accepts electronic submittals of plats, such as those transmitted as a Portable
Document Format (PDF) file. Upon verification, the Corps can electronically sign these
plats and return them via e-mail to the requestor.

1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the
United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party
who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to
request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site.
Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this
preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in
this instance and at this time.
2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or
a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring
"pre-construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non-reporting
NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an
approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the
following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization
based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of
jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved
JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and
that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less
compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that
the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting
the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4)
that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply
with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation
requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that undertaking
any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting
an approved JD constitutes the applicanYs acceptance of the use of the
preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is
practicable; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps
permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all
wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity
are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes any challenge to
such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement
action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether
the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD
will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered
individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual
permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331,
and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33
C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary
to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or
to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will
provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable.
This preliminary JD finds that there "may be" waters of the United States on the
subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be
affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:
later iurisdictional determinations.

6�structions for compietion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining tha most appropriate ecoregion based on
tocation, terrain, vegetation, stream classificatimi, etc. Every characteristie must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides � brief description of how to review the
cl�aracteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
chazacteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide a�� expiaoation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the chazacter of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), tlie stream may be divided into smallar reaches that display more continuity, and a sepazate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range betwean 0 and lOQ wifh a score of 100 representing a stream of Ihe
highest quality.
