No: 0098038 Funding: ❑ State ® Federal Federal Permit Required? ® Yes ❑ No Permit Type: NWP 3 / NWP 14 Project Description: The project proposes contraction of roundabout at the intersection of NC 98 and SR 2057/SR 4465 (Moores Pond Road) in Wake and Franklin counties, North Carolina. The archaeological Area of Potential Effects (APE) encompasses all areas of potential disturbance as presented on the accompanying ARC-GIS mapping. The APE encompasses 10.13 acres in total area. SUMMARY OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL FINDINGS The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Archaeology Team has reviewed the subject project and determined: ❑ There are no National Register listed ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES within the project's area of potential effects. (Attach any notes or documents as needed.) ❑ No subsurface archaeological investigations were required for this project. ❑ Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any archaeological resources. ® Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any archaeological resources considered eligible for the National Register. ® All identified archaeological sites located within the APE have been considered and all compliance for archaeological resources with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and GS 121-12(a) has been completed for this project. Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: Permitting and funding information was reviewed for determining the level of archaeological input required by state and federal laws. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act will apply because the project is federally funded. The Federal Highway Administration (FHwA) will serve as the lead federal agency. Next, construction design and other data was examined (when applicable) to define the character and extent of potential impacts to the ground surfaces embracing the improvement work. At this juncture, the APE was designed to capture all areas of potential impact within the project study area. Once an APE was defined, a map review and site file search was conducted utilizing on-line resources available from the Office of State Archaeology on Tuesday, May 24, 2022. Several archaeological sites have been documented within a 0.5 mile radius of the current APE. This information illustrates a high level of past activity in the direct area and therefore increases the potential for recording similar sites in the project study area. 2020 PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT ARCHAEOLOGY TEAM "NO NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBLE OR LISTED ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES PRESENT" FORM 1 of 3 Project Traclan No. 22-05-0007 Examination of National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), State Study Listed (SL), Locally Designated (LD), Determined Eligible (DE), and Surveyed Site (SS) properties employing resources available on the NCSHPO website is important in establishing the location of noteworthy historic occupations related to a perspective construction impact area. A cross-check of these mapped resources concluded that none of the above properties with potential contributing archaeological components are situated within the APE. Also, historic maps of Wake and Franklin counties were appraised to identify former structure locations, land use patterns, cemeteries, or other confirmation of historic occupation in the project vicinity. Archaeological/historical reference materials were inspected as well. Next, the APE was referenced on topographic, geologic, flood boundary, lidar and NRCS soil survey maps (see attached mapping) for the evaluation of environmental, geomorphological, hydrological, and other correlatives that may have resulted in past occupation in the project corridor. Also, aerial photographs (NCDOT Spatial Data Viewer & other on-line sources) were examined and the Google Street View map application was utilized (when amenable) for gaining a virtual, first-hand perspective of the overall study area and for assessing disturbances, both natural and human induced, which compromise the integrity of archaeological sites/deposits. Environmental determinants suggest a heightened potential for archaeological resource recovery within the APE. Based on the location of numerous archaeological sites in the vicinity, and positive environmental factors for past settlement including well drained soils, an archaeological survey is recommended prior to construction activities. This work will seek to determine if archaeological features, artifacts, or deposits are contained within the project APE. All documented sites will be evaluated for NRHP eligibility. TRC Environmental Corporation (TRC) conducted an intensive archaeological survey and evaluation for the proposed construction of a roundabout at the intersection of NC 98 (Wait Avenue) and SR 2057/SR 4465 (Moores Pond Road), east of Wake Forest on the border between Franklin and Wake counties, North Carolina (Figures 1 and 2). The archaeological Area of Potential Effects (APE) for the Project encompasses all areas of potential disturbances and covers 10.13 acres. There are no known federal- or state-owned lands (apart from the existing NCDOT right-of-way) within the APE. Reviews of site and report files at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) conducted by Scott Halvorsen of NCDOT and updated by TRC determined that there has been no prior systematic survey within or adjacent to the Project APE but that three known sites (31FK53, 31FK54, and 31WA118) are situated within a one half mile radius (Halvorsen 2022). Based on their locations, none has the potential to extend into the Project APE. The fieldwork was completed in September 2022 under the direction of Jeff Johnson and overall supervision of Tracy Millis, and required approximately eight person -days. The fieldwork included systematic pedestrian reconnaissance of the entire APE and systematic shovel testing at 30-m intervals of all areas except for wetlands, parcels with denied access, and areas showing visible and severe disturbance or exhibiting 15% or greater slope, followed by closer interval shovel testing at identified archaeological sites. A total of 59 transect and delineation shovel tests (STs) and a single 1 X 1 m test unit (TU) were excavated. The APE is situated on a terrace mainly covered by agricultural fields planted in soybeans and manicured lawns, but also contains moderately dense mixed deciduous and coniferous forests. 2020 PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT ARCHAEOLOGY TEAM "NO NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBLE OR LISTED ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES PRESENT" FORM 2 of 3 Project Tracking No. 22-05-0007 Previous impacts to the Project area appear limited to agricultural activity and disturbances related to several private residences northeast and northwest of the intersection. Soils encountered were fairly consistent throughout the APE, and generally consisted of a sandy loam Ap horizon overlying a sandy E horizon and a subsoil comprised of sandy clay loam or sandy clay Bw or Bt horizon. The fieldwork identified two newly recorded sites (Table 1). Site 3IWA2855 is a small Woodland period artifact scatter represented by ceramic sherds and lithic debitage. A low density of cultural material was recovered from the Ap and E horizons at 31 WA2855. Site 31 WA2856 is represented by nondiagnostic precontact lithic tools and debitage along with a 20 th century isolated find, all recovered from an agricultural field. All of the cultural material recovered from this site was confined to the plowzone or ground surface. Both of these sites appear to lack research potential and are recommended not eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) under Criterion D as defined within the Project APE; the sites also appear to lack the characteristics needed for eligibility under Criteria A—C. Neither of these sites is totally contained within the APE, however, and additional delineation and evaluation of 31 WA2855 and/or 31 WA2856 is recommended should the APE be expanded at either location. (This project falls within a North Carolina County in which the following federally recognized tribes have expressed an interest: Catawba. We recommend that you ensure that this documentation is forwarded to these tribes using the process described in the current NCDOT Tribal Protocol and PA Procedures Manual.)

BACKGROUND RESEARCH Previous Archaeological Surveys and Previously Identified Sites Reviews of site and report files at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) conducted by Scott Halvorsen of NCDOT and updated by TRC determined that there has been no prior systematic survey within the Project APE but that three archaeological sites are situated within a one-half mile radius (Halvorsen 2022) (Table 2). The two Franklin County sites were recorded by avocational archaeologist Herby Lee Alford and the recorder of the Wake County site is unknown; none of these sites has been formally investigated or assessed for NRHP eligibility. Both of the sites in Franklin County (31FK53 and 31FK54) are lithic sites of unknown temporal affiliation that are less than an acre in size. According to the site form, artifacts recovered from site 31FK53 include approximately 1,200 projectile points (PPKs), several axe heads, one stone bowl or dish, several pieces of soapstone pottery, several stone drills, and numerous worn stones and other unknown objects. The site form for 31FK54 states that artifacts recovered from that site include steatite, ground/pecked stone, unifacial tools, and hafted bifaces/PPKs. The site in Wake County (31WA118) is represented by a piece of debitage but otherwise very little information is recorded for this site. Based on their locations, none has the potential to extend into the APE. Table 2. Previously Recorded Sites within One -Half Mile of the Proiect APE.

Structures A review of HPOWEB conducted by Scott Halvorsen of NCDOT and updated by TRC determined that there are no National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), State Study Listed (SL), Locally Designated (LD), Determined Eligible (DE), or Surveyed Site (SS) properties with potential contributing archaeological components within or adjacent to the APE (Halvorsen 2022). Mapped resources within a half mile of the APE include WA1734, the June Jones Farm; WA1735, the June Jones Tenant House (gone); WA8358, the Poole Farm; and FK0388, the Jeffreys House (current site). The Poole Farm (WA8358) was determined ineligible for the NRHP in 2018, and the other three were "surveyed only" with no NRHP eligibility recommendation given (HPOWEB 2022). Based on their locations, none of these properties has the potential to contain associated archaeological resources within the APE. Cemeteries No cemeteries are depicted on historic maps or otherwise known within or adjacent to the APE (https://cemeterycensus.com/cemgps2.htm?cnty=nc/wake/; https://cemeterycensus.com/cemgps2.htm? cnty=nc/fran/; https://ncgenweb.us/wake/records-data/; https://www.ncgenweb.us/franklin/cemetery /cemeteries.html; https://digital.ncdcr.gov/digital/collection/pl5Ol2colll/id/23816/rec/l; https://digital. ncdcr. gov/digital/collection/pl5012co111/id/32386/rec/1). Historical Map Review Topographic and other historic period maps were examined for information on previous occupations or structure locations and/or on natural or cultural variables that might have influenced site locations. Both Franklin County and Wake County maps were examined as the Project APE straddles the border between counties. There are no structures or roads depicted in the vicinity of the APE on any of the 19th century maps reviewed (Figure 3, Brazier and Tharp 1832; Figure 4, Bevers 1871; and Figure 5, Shaffer 1887). A road that appears to align with Moores Pond Road and an unlabeled structure are mapped immediately north of the county line and west of the road on the circa (ca.) 1906-1907 USGS map of Franklin County, but the structure does not appear to have been situated within the APE (Figure 6, USGS ca. 1906-1907). A road that appears to align with Moores Pond Road is depicted on both of the early 20t' century USPO rural deliveries maps of Franklin and Wake counties, but no structures are depicted in the vicinity of the APE (Figures 7 and 8; USPO 1910a, 1910b). It should be noted that while these maps are from the same time period, the border between Franklin and Wake counties is depicted differently on each, with the Franklin County map depicting the modern county line. A 1911 map of Wake County depicts a structure labeled "Daniels" near the border with Franklin County, but the border was moved farther east of that structure after this map was made, and the structure was not within the Project APE (Figure 9; Spoon 1911). There are no structures depicted in the vicinity of the APE on the 1914 soil map of Wake County, which also depicts the modern county border (Figure 10, Brinkley et al. 1914). Neither the 1931 soil map nor the 1938 State Highway and Public Works Commission map of Franklin County depicts any structures in the vicinity of the APE (Figure 11, Davis et al. 1931; Figure 12, NCSHPWC 1944). The 1967 Rolesville USGS 1:24,000-scale topographic map depicts a structure to the northeast of the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road that was outside the APE (Figure 13, USGS 1967). None of the maps reviewed suggest archaeological deposits associated with historic structures should be expected within the APE.

Most (55.9%) of the APE is mapped as Rawlings -Rion complex, 2-10% slopes (RgB and RgC), which encompasses most of the APE within Wake County. These are deep to very deep, well -drained soils that formed from residuum weathered from granite bedrock. The next most common soil type present within the APE (27.8%) is Appling loamy sand, 2-6% slopes (ApB), located in the northeastern third of the APE within Franklin County. This soil is described as a very deep, well -drained loamy sand residuum weathered from felsic igneous and metamorphic rock (USDA NRCS 2022). Chewacla and Wehadkee soils, 0-2% slopes, (ChA) are mapped immediately east of the intersection and cover 9.9% of the APE. Chewacla and Wehadkee soils are somewhat poorly drained to poorly drained, found on floodplains, and formed from loamy alluvium derived from igneous and metamorphic rock (USDA NRCS 2022). Wake -Saw -Wedowee complex, 2-8% slopes, (WaB) is mapped in the easternmost portion of the APE, encompassing the remaining 6.3% of the APE. Wake soils are shallow and excessively drained; Saw soils are moderately deep and well drained; and Wedowee soils are very deep and well drained (Kunickis 2004). Wake and Saw soils are residuum weathered from coarse grained felsic crystalline igneous rock, and Wedowee soils are residuum weathered from felsic crystalline rock (Kunickis 2004). FIELDWORK RESULTS The APE covers approximately 10.13 acres, forming a cross around the intersection of Wait Avenue (NC 98) and Moores Pond Road (SR 2057/SR 4465). The area consists of a mixture of NCDOT right-of-way, residential properties, agricultural fields, and forested areas. A little over half of the APE is forested, and the remaining areas are open residential yards or a field planted in soybeans at the time of the survey. A few impenetrable surfaces exist within the APE, including the paved road surfaces, two gravel driveways in the northwest quadrant, and exposed bedrock in the south quadrant along the unnamed tributary to the Little River. The areas immediately surrounding the unnamed tributary are either exposed bedrock or wetland. The archaeological fieldwork was conducted from September 1-9, 2022 under the direction of Jeff Johnson and the overall supervision of Tracy Millis, and required approximately eight person -days to complete. The fieldwork included systematic pedestrian reconnaissance of the entire APE and systematic shovel testing of all areas except for wetlands, impenetrable surfaces, and areas showing visible and severe disturbance. Shovel tests were excavated at 30-m intervals along transects no more than 15-m from the edge of the APE. Supplemental shovel tests were excavated at close intervals to delineate cultural material. Shovel tests measured at least 30 cm in diameter and were excavated to sterile subsoil, bedrock, or a minimum depth of 75 cm. The survey identified two previously unrecorded sites (31WA2855 and 31WA2856) (Figure 14; Table 3). A total of 59 transect and delineation shovel tests and one 1 X 1 in test unit were excavated as part of the Project (Figure 15). Table 3.

Site 3IWA2855 is identified by a Woodland period artifact scatter of eroded ceramic sherds, a nondiagnostic lithic tool, and debitage found on a forested terrace southwest of the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road (Figures 16 and 17; see Figures 14-15). The site measures approximately 75 in north -south by 28 in east -west and is bounded by consecutive negative shovel tests to the north, by Moores Pond Road to the east, by an unnamed tributary of the Little River to the south, and by the edge of the Project APE to the west. A shovel test containing artifacts was inadvertently placed a short distance west of the Project APE, so it evident that the site extends outside the APE in that direction. Vegetation at the site is mature hardwood forest with intermittent pines and a light to moderately dense understory of saplings, greenbrier, and grapevines; the southern one -quarter of the site is within wetland along the unnamed stream. There is a large granite rock outcrop in the north half of the site (Figure 18). A total of nine shovel tests (including all transect and delineation tests situated within 30 in of positive tests) were excavated across the site; three of which produced artifacts (Figure 16). Seventeen artifacts were recovered from those three shovel tests, with two producing five artifacts each and the other producing seven artifacts. Shovel test 35 (N500 E500) produced an eroded sherd and four tertiary flakes, shovel test N500 E485 produced three secondary flakes and two tertiary flakes, and shovel test N485 E485 produced an untyped fabric impressed sherd, a PPK fragment, a biface fragment, a secondary flake, two tertiary flakes, and a piece of tertiary shatter (Table 4). A charcoal concentration (Feature 1) below the A horizon was identified in the south wall of shovel test N485 E485 and produced one biface fragment and one tertiary flake (Figure 19). Just over half of the artifacts (58.8%) were recovered from the A horizon, 29.4% were recovered from the E horizon, and 11.8% were recovered from Feature 1. Table 4.

The test unit was placed immediately south of ST N485 E485, with the shovel test positioned in the center of the north wall and the southwest corner at N484 E484.5. An area of exposed bedrock is located immediately south of TU 1 and was partially exposed during excavation. Feature 1 was encountered at the base of Level 2, which represents the transition between the A and E horizons (Figure 20). In plan view, it appeared that the north wall of TU 1 was roughly bisecting Feature 1 along an east -west axis, therefore the south half of Feature 1 within TU 1 was excavated to expose it in profile. Once partially excavated and exposed in the north wall of TU 1, Feature 1 was determined to be non -cultural bioturbation resulting from a burned and rotten tree root system (Figure 21). The shape of Feature 1 was irregular, the boundaries were diffuse, and the feature fill was loose. Two zones (A and B) were identified within Feature 1, but these appear to be the result of bioturbation occurring within different natural soil horizons. Test Unit 1 was terminated after the excavation of four consecutive culturally sterile 10 cm levels at the base of the E horizon (40-60 cmbs) and into the C horizon (60-70 cmbs). Table 5.

North wall profile of TU 1 showing Feature 1 at 31WA2855. 18 Test Unit 1 at 31WA2855 displayed a soil profile involving an A horizon of very dark grayish brown (1 OYR 3/2) loamy sand (0-20 cmbs), over a light gray (2.5Y 7/2) coarse sand E horizon (20-60 cmbs), underlain by a brownish yellow (IOYR 6/6) mottled with light gray (2.5Y 7/2) very coarse sand C horizon (60-70+ cmbs) (Figure 22). The soil sequence observed within TU 1 was similar to that observed within the shovel tests. Zone A within Feature 1 was a dark grayish brown (lOYR 4/2) loamy sand (24-35 cmbs) and Zone B was a grayish brown (2.5Y 5/2) sand (35-63 cmbs). A total of 46 artifacts were recovered during the excavation of TU 1, most from the A horizon (n32) and only a few from the upper 20 cm of the E horizon (n5) and the south half of Feature 1 (n9). In total, TU 1 produced two Yadkin fabric impressed sherds, an untyped eroded sherd, three residual sherds, a core, 34 flakes, and five pieces of shatter (Table 6). Metavolcanic (n21) is the dominant lithic material type in the TU 1 assemblage, with crystal quartz (n9), quartz (n9), and quartzite (n1) also represented (Figure 23). Summary and Recommendations. Site 31WA2855 is a low -density precontact artifact scatter likely resulting from transient use of the area. The ceramic sherds recovered suggest a Middle Woodland period use of the area, but the nondiagnostic lithic artifacts could represent older cultural components. The portion of site 31WA2855 investigated within the Project APE lacks evidence of substantial artifact concentrations, intact artifact deposits, and/or cultural features, and does not appear to have the potential to provide substantial information on the precontact period use of the area. This site is recommended not eligible for the NRHP under Criterion D and also appears to lack the characteristics necessary for eligibility under Criteria A—C. No additional consideration of this site is recommended within the APE as currently defined, but in the event that the Project APE is expanded to the west, further work is recommended to determine if the site extends farther in that direction.

Site 3 IWA2856 is a low -density artifact scatter represented by a total of 25 artifacts, including 22 pieces of precontact nondiagnostic lithic debitage, two precontact nondiagnostic lithic tools, and one 20t' century glass container fragment. The artifacts were recovered from the ground surface and three shovel tests within a soybean field to the southeast of the intersection of Wait Avenue and Moores Pond Road (Figure 24; see Figures 14-16). The site measures approximately 95 in north -south by 60 in east -west and is bounded by consecutive negative shovel tests to the east and south, by Moores Pond Road to the west, and by Wait Avenue to the north. The site is located on a terrace overlooking an unnamed tributary to the Little River that is within an agricultural field planted in soybeans at the time of the survey. The soybeans were fully grown at the time of survey, yielding less than 50% ground surface visibility, but there were exposed surfaces of 75-100% ground surface visibility along the edges of the field that allowed for limited surface inspection. A small patch of trees is present in the southern one-third of the site area along the east side of Moores Pond Road. The southern edge of the site area has exposed bedrock on the ground surface. The soil type at 3IWA2856 is mapped as Rawlings -Rion complex, 2-10% slopes (RgB and RgC), which contains deep to very deep, well -drained soils that formed from residuum weathered from granite bedrock 21 (USDA NRCS 2022). Shovel tests at 3IWA2856 displayed a soil sequence involving a light olive brown (2.5Y 5/3) or yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) loamy sand Ap horizon extending up to 29 crabs. This was underlain by a yellowish red (5YR 5/8) or brownish yellow (10YR 6/6) sandy clay Bt horizon in shovel tests exhibiting eroded soil profiles. Shovel tests in areas that were not eroded displayed a very pale brown (1 OYR 7/3) loamy sand E horizon below the Ap horizon. The E horizon was underlain by a brownish yellow (IOYR 6/6) or pale yellow (5Y 7/4) sandy clay loam Bt horizon (Figure 25). Figure 24. Site 31WA2856, facing east. A total of 13 shovel tests were excavated to delineate this site, three of which contained between 2-5 pieces of lithic debitage each. One shovel test (ST N530 E515) produced a single piece of 7-Up green container glass. A small concentration of lithic debitage (n=14) was recovered from the ground surface immediately south of ST 4 (N500 E500), and cultural material likely extends into the soybean field, but poor ground surface visibility prevented surface inspection in the field. One metavolcanic PPK fragment was recovered on the exposed bedrock immediately east of Moores Pond Road. All of the artifacts were recovered from disturbed contexts either on the ground surface or within the Ap horizon (Figure 26). Summary and Recommendations. Site 31WA2856 is a precontact lithic site represented by two tools and 22 pieces of debitage along with an isolated 20t' century artifact. All of the artifacts were recovered from the ground surface or within the Ap horizon of three shovel tests in the southeastern portion of the Project APE. The site may be associated with 31WA2855 to the west of the road, but this cannot be established. As currently defined within the APE, the site lacks evidence of substantial artifact concentrations, intact artifact deposits, and/or cultural features, and is recommended not eligible for the NRHP under criteria A— D. No additional consideration of this site is recommended within the presently defined APE, but in the event that the Project APE is expanded, further work is recommended to determine the full extent of the site. 22 Figure 25.

Representative lithic artifacts from 31WA2856. a) crystal quartz retouched flake; b) metavolcame PPK fragment SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS TRC conducted an intensive archaeological survey and evaluation for the proposed construction of a roundabout at the intersection of NC 98 (Wait Avenue) and SR 2057/SR 4465 (Moores Pond Road), east of Wake Forest on the border between Franklin and Wake counties, North Carolina. The archaeological APE for the Project encompasses all areas of potential disturbances and covers 10.13 acres. There are no known federal- or state-owned lands (apart from the existing NCDOT right-of-way) within the APE. Reviews of site and report files at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) conducted by Scott Halvorsen of NCDOT and updated by TRC determined that there has been no prior systematic survey within or adjacent to the Project APE but that three known sites (31FK53, 31FK54, and 31WA118) are situated within a one- half mile radius (Halvorsen 2022). Based on their locations, none has the potential to extend into the Project APE. The fieldwork was completed in September 2022 under the direction of Jeff Johnson and overall supervision of Tracy Millis and required approximately eight person -days. The fieldwork included systematic pedestrian reconnaissance of the entire APE and systematic shovel testing at 30-m intervals of all areas except for wetlands, parcels with denied access, and areas showing visible and severe disturbance or exhibiting 15% or greater slope, followed by closer interval shovel testing at identified archaeological sites. A total of 59 transect and delineation shovel tests and a single 1 X 1 in test unit were excavated. 24 The fieldwork identified two newly recorded sites (Table 7). Site 31WA2855 produced only precontact artifacts, including Woodland period sherds and nondiagnostic lithic tools and debitage likely from a wide range of temporal affiliations. Artifacts derived from both the Ap and E horizons. Site 31WA2856 is represented by nondiagnostic precontact lithic tools and debitage along with a 20t' century isolated find, all recovered from an agricultural field. All of the cultural material recovered from this site was confined to the plowzone or ground surface. Table 7. Summary of Archaeological Sites Identified within the Proiect APE. NRHP Eligibility Site Component Recommendation 3.1 WA2855 Precontact: Woodland and nondiagnostic lithic Not eligible* 31 WA2856 Precontact: nondiagnostic lithic; Postcontact 20' century Not eligible* *Recommendation applies only to portion of the site identified within the current Project APE; no additional investigations recommended within APE as presently defined Both of these sites appear to lack research potential and are recommended not eligible for the NRHP under Criterion D as defined within the Project APE; the sites also appear to lack the characteristics needed for eligibility under Criteria A—C. Neither of these sites is totally contained within the APE, however, and additional delineation and evaluation of 31WA2855 and/or 31WA2856 is recommended should the APE be expanded at either location. 25 REFERENCES CITED Bevers, Fendol 1871 Map of Wake County.

Typical Cross Section Description: Variable 12-16' lanes with normal crown. Split by monolithic islands at the approach to the round about. 02 super elevation away from center of round about. Paved shoulder Normal crown along each corridor to intersection approach with paved shoulder. Annual Avg Daily Traffic (veh/hrlday): Design/Future: 1 15000 1 Year: 12043 Existing: 8400 1 Year: 1 2023 General Project Narrative: (Description of Minimization of Water Quality Impacts) The intersection of NC 98 (Wait Ave) and SR 2057/SR 4465/SR 1106 (Moores Pond Rd) will see improvements in the form of a round about. Widening will occur near the intersection which will impact the -L- line stream crossing and adjacent wetland. There will be minor buffer impacts as the widening improvements taper back to existing Y line at the next stream crossing, south of the intersection. In the longer stretches of monolithic sections surrounding the north and south quadrants of the roundabout, curb cuts were designated to control spread in the travel lane.

The list may also include trust resources that occur outside of the project area, but that could potentially be directly or indirectly affected by activities in the project area. However, determining the likelihood and extent of effects a project may have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional site -specific (e.g., vegetation/species surveys) and project -specific (e.g., magnitude and timing of proposed activities) information. Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for the USFWS office(s) with jurisdiction in the defined project area. Please read the introduction to each section that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds, USFWS Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for additional information applicable to the trust resources addressed in that section.

The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species. Additional areas of influence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of the species range if the species could be indirectly affected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a dam upstream of a fish population even if that fish does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly impact the species by reducing or eliminating water flow downstream). Because species can move, and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near the project area. To fully determine any potential effects to species, additional site -specific and project -specific information is often required. 0 * %, Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any Federal agency. A letter from the local office and a species list which fulfills this requirement can only be obtained by requesting an official species list from either the Regulatory Review section in IPaC (see directions below) or from the local field office directly. _ For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website and request an official species list by doing the following: 1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE. 2. Click DEFINE PROJECT. 3. Log in (if directed to do so). 4. Provide a name and description for your project. 5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST. Listed speciesl and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the fisheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries). Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not shown on this list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under theirjurisdiction. 1. Species listed under the Endangered Species Act are threatened or endangered; IPaC also shows species that are candidates, or proposed, for listing. See the listing status page for more information.

Probability of Presence ( ) Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4- week months.) A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort (see below) can be used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score. One can have higher confidence in the presence score if the corresponding survey effort is also high. How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps: 1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25. 2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is 0.05/0.25 = 0.2. 3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score. To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species present on your project site. What does IPaC use to generate the list of migratory birds that potentially occur in my specified location? The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC), and other species that may warrant special attention in your project location. The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN).

How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering or migrating in my area? To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or year-round), you may query your location using the RAIL Tool and look at the range maps provided for birds in your area at the bottom of the profiles provided for each bird in your results. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area. What are the levels of concern for migratory birds? Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern: 1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands); '00 N 2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and 3. "Non -BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non -eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from certain types of development or activities (e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing). if N N Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics. It Details about birds that are potentially affected by offshore projects For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of bird species within your project area off the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal also offers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review. Alternately, you may download the bird model results files underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf project webpage. Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year, including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam Loring. What if I have eagles on my list? If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the Eagle Act should such impacts occur. https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/location/LH4WQZVFKZGXFBMX5Y7AM5T7NU/resources 13/16 3/7/24, 11:21 AM IPaC: Explore Location resources Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10 km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a red horizontal bar). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort bar or no data bar means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there, and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to confirm presence, and helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be confirmed.

For more information please contact the Regulatory Program of the local U.S. Army Corps of Engineers District. Please note that the NWI data being shown may be out of date. We are currently working to update our NWI data set. We recommend you verify these results with a site visit to determine the actual extent of wetlands on site. This location overlaps the following wetlands: FRESHWATER FORESTED/SHRUB WETLAND PFO1A FRESHWATER POND PUBHh RIVERINE R4SBC RSUBH CA0 <03 A full description for each wetland code can be found at the National Wetlands Inventory_ website Y Ar NOTE: This initial screening does not replace an on -site delineation to determine whether wetlands occur. Additional information on the NWI data is provided below. Data limitations The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on -the -ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis. The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems. https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/location/LH4WQZVFKZGXFBMX5Y7AM5T7NU/resources 15/16 3/7/24, 11:21 AM IPaC: Explore Location resources Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site. Data exclusions Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery. Data precautions Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate Federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.

Northern Long -Eared Bat (Endangered): The USFWS has issued a revised Programmatic Biological Opinion (PBO) in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and NCDOT for the northern long-eared bat (NLEB) (Myotis septentrionalis) in eastern North Carolina (December 15, 2022). The revised PBO covers the entire NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT projects and activities. The programmatic determination for NLEB for the NCDOT program is May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect. The revised PBO will ensure compliance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for ten years (effective through December 31, 2030) for all NCDOT projects with a federal nexus in Divisions 1-8. Although this PBO covers Divisions 1-8, the USFWS only considers NLEBs to be known or potentially found in 30 counties within Divisions 1-8. Note that none of these 30 counties are located within Division 5. NCDOT, FHWA, and USACE have agreed to two Conservation Measures which will avoid/minimize mortality of NLEBs. These Conservation Measures only apply to the 30 current known/potential counties shown on Figure 2 of the revised PBO and do not include any parts of Division 5. Additionally, NCDOT, FHWA, and USACE have agreed to three Monitoring and Reporting Requirements to monitor the impacts of incidental take. (Note: M&R2 is adhered to by Biological Surveys Group (BSG) and is not discussed below). M&R1: If dead bats suspected of being NLEB are observed during clearing, demolition, or construction activities of the Action, such bats should be collected and preserved for identification. Gary Jordan of the USFWS Raleigh Field Office should be contacted at gary iordan@fws.gov to arrange transfer of the bats. Dead bats should be placed in a freezer until they can be transferred. M&R3: NCDOT staff and/or consultants must follow the NCDOT Bat Habitat Assessment SOP by filling out Bat Habitat Assessment Forms for projects that affect bridges and culverts. Minimum dimensions for conducting a culvert survey are 5 feet in height and 60 feet in length. Bridge and structure assessments are valid for two years. These forms will be submitted to the NCDOT Biological Surveys Group (BSG) using the Survey 123 application or emailed to clknepp@ncdot.gov. BSG staff will enter the forms into its database even if no bat presence is detected. If NLEBs are detected at a bridge or culvert, the USFWS will be notified via email at gary iordan@fws.gov. Note: No structures requiring bat surveys are located within the project construction limits. Additionally, no bridges are located within the project construction limits. Tricolored Bat (Proposed Endangered): The US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has issued a Programmatic Conference Opinion (PCO) in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and NCDOT for the tricolored bat (TCB) (Perimyotis subflavus) in eastern North Carolina (November 20, 2023). The PCO covers the entire NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT projects and activities. The programmatic determination for TCB for the NCDOT program is May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect. Once the TCB is officially listed, the PCO will become the programmatic biological opinion (PBO) by formal request from FHWA and USACE. The PBO will ensure compliance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for approximately five years (effective through December 31, 2028) for all NCDOT projects with a federal nexus in Divisions 1-8. NCDOT, FHWA, and USACE have agreed to three conservation measures (listed in the PCO) which will avoid/minimize take to TCBs. These conservation measures apply to all counties in Divisions 1-8. Note that at this time, no TCB maternity roost trees have been identified in Divisions 1-8. Additionally, NCDOT, FHWA, and USACE have agreed to two Monitoring and Reporting Requirements.

Within the Environmentally Sensitive Areas, the following shall apply: • The contractor may perform clearing operations but not grubbing operations until immediately prior to beginning grading operations. • Once grading operations begin in the Environmental Sensitive Areas, work shall progress in a continuous manner until complete. • Erosion control devices shall be installed immediately following the clearing operation. • Seeding and mulching shall be performed on the areas disturbed by construction immediately following final grade establishment. • Seeding and mulching shall be done in stages on cut and fill slopes that are greater than 20 feet in height measure along the slope or greater than two acres in area, whichever is less. The following are additional measures intended to further reduce deleterious construction related effects to the waterway: Off -site detours will be utilized to the maximum extent possible. No heavy equipment will be placed in the stream outside of the impervious dikes. The following documents will be used during design and construction: 1) NCDOT Erosion and Sediment Control Design and Construction Manual; 2) NCDOT Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities and 3) NCDOT Stormwater Best Management Practices Toolbox. Culvert/pipe structure construction activities will have containment measures in place to prevent components of the structure from dropping into the stream outside of the impervious dike. The method of containment will be proposed by the contractor and approved by the engineer as necessary. Special sediment control fence NCDOT Standard No. 1606.01 or a combination of special sediment control fence and standard silt fence will be installed between the top of the stream bank and adjacent grading activities. Once the disturbed areas of the project draining to these areas have been stabilized, the special sediment control fence and/or standard silt fence and all built up sediment adjacent to these devices will be removed to natural ground and stabilized with a native grass mix. All appropriate sedimentation and erosion control measures, throughout the project limits, will be maintained to ensure proper function of the measures following NCDOT protocols. Embankment construction and grading shall be managed in such a manner as to prevent surface runoff/drainage from discharging untreated into the riparian buffer. All interim surfaces will be graded to drain to temporary erosion control devices. Temporary berms, ditches, etc. will be incorporated, as necessary, to treat temporary runoff before discharging into the riparian buffer (as specified in the NCDOT BMP Manual). All sedimentation and erosion control measures will be appropriately maintained following NCDOT standards to ensure proper function of the measures. This project must adhere to conditions of General Permit NCGO1000 to Discharge Stormwater under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System for Construction Activities. The project design and construction activities are required to "select, install, implement and maintain best management practices (BMPs) and control measures that minimize pollutants in the discharge to meet the requirements of the permit." Among these conditions, the permit requires: 1) all erosion and sedimentation control measures must be inspected at least once every seven calendar days and 2) within 24 hours after any storm event of greater than 1.0 inch of rain per 24 hour period. It is understood that these requirements and implementation of other appropriate BMPs are monitored through multiple layers of oversight. At a minimum, the following personnel monitor erosion control measures: Contactor project manager NCDOT Division Environmental Officer and Environmental Specialists NCDOT Roadside Environmental Field Operations Staff Utility relocations required by bridge or culvert replacements must minimize sedimentation impacts to federally protected species (freshwater mussels, Neuse River waterdog and Carolina madtom). No stream open cuts for utility relocation will occur on this project. In the event that visible sediment loss from the project is observed at the bridge site, a review of turbidity levels will be made upstream and downstream 400 meters (0.25 mile) to determine if sedimentation effects are occurring beyond the Action Area as defined in the Biological Opinion. If visual observation of turbidity levels downstream appear to be elevated beyond upstream observations, the project inspector will contact the Division Environmental Officer. If determined that project -related sediment is occurring beyond 400 meters, the USFWS must be contacted immediately to discuss potential remediation.

Project Description: W-5805E 48950.1.6 0098038 The proposed project involves constructing a roundabout at the intersection of NC 98 and SR 2057/SR 4465 (Moores Pond Road) at the Wake and Franklin County line. The proposed improvements include a roundabout with one 16-foot rotary lane. Twelve -foot lanes and four -foot paved shoulders will be provided on both NC 98 and Moores Pond Road within the project limits. The project location is shown on Figure 1. Proposed improvements are shown on Figure 2. The project is included in the 2020-2029 North Carolina State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). Right-of-way acquisition and construction are expected to begin in fiscal years 2023 and 2024, respectively. The total estimated cost for the project is $1,850,000, including $150,000 for right of way acquisition, $50,000 for utilities, and $1,650,000 for construction. B. Description of Need and Purpose: The purpose of the proposed project is to improve safety at the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road. For the five-year period between November 1, 2013 and October 31, 2018, a total of 42 crashes occurred at this intersection. Thirty-five of these crashes resulted in injuries. A total of 77 people were injured in these crashes. The majority of crashes occurring during the study period (64.29%) were angle -type crashes. Sixteen people were injured in angle -type crashes. The total crash rate for this intersection for the study period was 230.01 crashes per 100 million vehicles entering the intersection. C.

Special Project Information: Potential Project Effects The proposed project will require the acquisition of additional right of way. Temporary construction easements and permanent drainage and utility easements will also be required. The proposed project is expected to impact less than 0.1 acre of wetlands and approximately 140 linear feet of stream (these impacts are based on an impact area 25 feet outside the proposed slope stakes). The project is not located within a 100-year floodplain. Figure 3 presents environmental features in the project area. Complete Streets Bicycle, pedestrian, and public transit accommodations were evaluated for the project. There are no bicycle, pedestrian, or transit facilities within or adjacent to the project study area. The four -foot paved shoulders proposed on both NC 98 and Moores Pond Road within the project limits will provide additional width for bicycles. NC 98 is proposed to be widened in the future, as indicated in the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). Bicycle and pedestrian accommodations will be provided as a part of this future widening. Stage 21M1 of the Integrated Project Delivery Process (IPD) has been completed and the NCDOT Integrated Mobility Division and Wake and Franklin County Planning staffs have concurred with the proposed four -foot paved shoulder on NC 98 and Moores Pond Road due to this future widening and the limited scope of this project. Utilities The proposed project will require relocation of telephone, cable, and overhead power lines within the study area. Public Involvement A public meeting was held for the proposed project on January 23, 2023 at New Life Church on NC 96 near Wake Forest. Property owners in the area were notified about the workshop by postcards distributed by mail. A project map showing the project design was displayed and informational handouts were available to meeting participants. No formal presentation was made; the public could attend at any time during the meeting hours. Seven people attended this public meeting, not including project team staff. Two comment sheets were received from local citizens during the public meeting. Comments were also received via the public website. In addition to the public meeting, a public input website was created to receive comments from residents and businesses in the study area. Postcards providing the website address were mailed to area property owners on January 4, 2023. Comments were accepted from the website starting January 4, 2023, until February 9, 2023. In total, nine comments were received regarding the proposed project. Five comments expressed support for the project. Other comments suggested installing roadway lighting to improve visibility of the proposed roundabout at night and one comment suggested keeping the existing four-way stop. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 2 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 Community Impacts A Direct and Indirect Screening Tool (DIST) was completed by RKA in September 2022. The DIST identified that 720 people live within a one -mile radius of the project study area. It is reported that 20% of the population living within the one -mile radius are minority. It is reported that 4% of the households within the one -mile radius have a household income below $15,000. It is reported that 2% of the population living within the one -mile radius speak English "less than very well." Direct, negative impacts to farmland soils, agricultural operations or voluntary agriculture districts were noted as being possible. Within the project study area, there are farmlands of statewide importance and prime farmland soils, according to the Natural Resources Conservation Service. Additionally, one of the properties within the study area, in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road, is actively farmed. A preliminary screening of farmland impacts in the project area has been completed. An AD-1006 form was submitted to NRCS in July 2022 and it was found that the project has a total site assessment score below the Farmland Protection Policy Act threshold of 160 points. As such, these farmland conversion impacts are not considered notable. Although not identified as a possible negative impact, an off -site detour will be utilized during construction. The intersection is expected to be closed for approximately a year, with a 3.2-mile detour for drivers on NC 98 and a 3.4-mile detour for drivers on Moores Pond Road. Low impacts were noted by the school systems and emergency service agencies for both Wake and Franklin Counties. Additional information regarding the proposed detours and their effects are provided below. Detour The intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road will be closed during construction. The proposed detour route for drivers on NC 98 is approximately 3.2 miles. From the west, the detour follows NC 96 (Zebulon Road) to US 401 to NC 98. The proposed detour route for drivers on Moores Pond Road is approximately 3.4 miles. From the north, the detour follows SR 1104 (Satterwhite Road)/SR 1946 (Jack Jones Road) to NC 96 to US 401 to Moores Pond Road. The proposed detour routes are shown on Figure 1. Wake County Schools was contacted to provide input on the impact of a possible intersection closure. Wake County Schools indicated there will be a low impact to school bus transportation if the intersection was closed. One Wake County school bus travels through the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road twice a day. Franklin County Schools was contacted to provide input on the impact of a possible intersection closure. Franklin County Schools indicated there will be a low impact to school bus transportation if the intersection was closed. No Franklin County school buses travel through the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road. Wake County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) was contacted to provide input on the impact of a possible intersection closure. Wake County EMS noted the intersection closure would cause low impact to emergency response and noted the detours are acceptable. Youngsville Fire Department was contacted to provide input on the impact of a possible intersection closure. Youngsville Fire Department noted the intersection closure would cause low impact to fire response within their coverage area but did note a potential moderate impact on mutual aid response from both the Bunn and Rolesville Fire Departments. Mutual aid is when another fire department responds to assist with structure fires in neighboring districts. The Youngsville Fire Department did note the project intersection is not inside their coverage area, although it is possible they could be dispatched into areas in Wake County, including the project area. Impact forms were also sent to Wake County Fire Services and Emergency Management Department and Franklin County EMS, with no response received after six weeks. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 Cultural Resources NCDOT architectural historians reviewed State Historic Preservation Office data on May 18, 2022 and found no existing National Register of Historic Places -listed or eligible properties in the project's area of potential effects (APE). There are no structures over 50 years of age in the APE. No historic architectural survey is required. The "Historic Architecture and Landscapes No Survey Required Form" was signed on May 18, 2022. NCDOT archaeologists conducted an on-line map review and site file search of data provided by the Office of State Archaeology on May 24, 2022. As explained in the May 25, 2022 "Archaeological Survey Required" form prepared by the NCDOT Archaeology Team, there are numerous archaeological sites in the project vicinity and positive environmental factors for past settlement. An archaeological survey was conducted in September 2022. The survey identified two newly recorded archaeological sites, both of which were recommended Not Eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. All identified archaeological sites located within the APE have been considered and all compliance for archaeological resources with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and GS 121-12(a) has been completed for this project. In the event that the Project APE is expanded, further work is recommended to determine the full extent of multiple archaeological sites. The "No National Register of Historic Places Eligible or Listed Archaeological Sites Present Form" was signed on November 29, 2022. Protected Species As of March 1, 2023, the US Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS) Information and Planning and Consultation (IPaC) website (ecos.fws.gov/ipac/) shows the following species are potentially affected by activities in this location: Federally -Protected Species Potentially Occurring in Project Study Area Common Name Scientific Status Potential Biological Name Habitat?

A follow up survey conducted June 6, 2022 found no specimens within the study area. It is therefore expected the proposed project will have "no effect" on Michaux's sumac. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 4 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 IPaC identifies potential for Neuse River waterdog and Carolina madtom in the study area, but the streams within the study area are greater than 0.25 mile from an identified stream reach for these species. In accordance with the Programmatic Biological Opinion -Bridge and Culvert Replacements/Repair/Rehabilitation Effects on Carolina madtom and Neuse River waterdog in NCDOT Divisions 2, 4, 5, and 7 (August 3, 2021), a biological conclusion of May Affect, Not Likely to Adversely Affect is expected for Neuse River waterdog and Carolina madtom. IPaC identifies potential for Atlantic pigtoe, Dwarf wedgemussel, Tar River spinymussel, and yellow lance in the study area, but the streams within the study area are well beyond any identified stream reach for these species. Following the Programmatic Biological Opinion -Bridge and Culvert Replacements/Repair/Rehabilitations in Eastern North Carolina NCDOT Divisions 1-8 (September 11, 2019) with addendum to Revised Programmatic Biological/Conference Opinion -Bridge and Culvert Replacements/Repairs/Rehabilitations in Eastern North Carolina, NCDOT Divisions 1-8 (June 1, 2021), a biological conclusion of May Affect, Not Likely to Adversely Affect is expected for Atlantic pigtoe, Dwarf wedgemussel, Tar River spinymussel, and Yellow lance. The bald eagle is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act enforced by the USFWS. No known Natural Heritage Program occurrences exist for this area. There are no large trees sufficient for eagle's nests, nor were any nests or birds observed during the site visit. Therefore, based on lack of habitat, it is expected the proposed project will have "No Effect' on bald eagle. On September 14, 2022, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced a proposal to list the tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus - PESU) as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. Given the proposal to list PESU as Federally Endangered, NCDOT and its federal partners, FHWA and USACE are initiating a conference programmatic consultation to address impacts to this species. USFWS has not provided an official effective listing date, but it is anticipated to occur in the second half of 2023. Upon listing, USFWS is expected to provide habitat descriptions and an area of influence/distribution range for PESU. When this information is provided, it will help to inform NCDOT's determinations on habitat that could be impacted by NCDOT actions. If listed, NCDOT will resolve Section 7 prior to project construction as appropriate. Streams, Buffers, and Wetlands Biologists with NCDOT conducted a site review on February 1 and February 17, 2022. This review is documented in the natural resources and protected species memo, which is a part of the project files. The project study area is located within the Neuse River Basin and the Neuse River Basin Buffer Rules apply. There are two streams within the study area. One stream is on NC 98 just west of the project intersection and is an intermittent stream. The other stream is on Moores Pond Road south of the project intersection and is a perennial stream. The proposed project will affect approximately 140 linear feet of stream, based on the area 25 feet outside the proposed slope stakes. The proposed project will affect approximately 8,807 square feet of Zone 1 and approximately 6,307 square feet of Zone 2 of the riparian buffer for both streams, based on the area 25 feet outside the proposed slope stakes. According to data from the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NC DEQ), the entire study area is within a Class II Water Supply Watershed for the Little River. NCDOT will strictly adhere to "Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds" (15A NCAC 04B .0024) (HQW standards) throughout design and construction of the project. Two wetlands were identified within the study area. The wetlands are located within the Neuse River Basin. The project may impact less than 0.1 acre of wetlands, based on the area 25 feet outside the proposed slope stakes. The project study area is not within a 100-year floodplain. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 Permits Required Given that the project may affect streams and wetlands, it is anticipated a Section 404 permit will be required for the project. A Nationwide Permit 14 or a Regional General Permit 50 may be pursued for this project due to the wetland and stream impacts. A buffer authorization and a Section 401 Water Quality Certificate will be required from the NC Division of Water Resources. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 6 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 F.

Response to Question 10: According to data from the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NC DEQ), the entire study area is within a Class II Water Supply Watershed for the Little River. All WS-II waters are High Quality Waters by supplemental classification. NCDOT will strictly adhere to "Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds" (15A NCAC 04B .0024) (HQW standards) throughout design and construction of the project. The two unnamed streams in the project area are subject to the Neuse River riparian buffer rules. The proposed project will affect 8,807 square feet of Zone 1 and 6,307 square feet of Zone 2 of the riparian buffers for these streams, based on the area 25 feet outside the proposed slope stakes. Response to Question 30: Within the project study area, there are farmlands of statewide importance and prime farmland soils. Additionally, one of the properties within the study area, in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of NC 98 and Moores Pond Road, is actively used as farmland. The project will affect approximately one acre of prime or important farmland soils. A preliminary screening of farmland conversation impacts in the project area has been completed. An AD-1006 form was submitted to NRCS in July 2022 and it was found that the project has a total site assessment score which does not exceed the Farmland Protection Policy Act threshold of 160 points. As such, these farmland conversion impacts are not considered notable. v2019.1 W-5805E Type I(A) CE Page 9 DocuSign Envelope ID: 8DB198D9-F4CD-47AE-BC03-D8765C7F8D58 H.
