Dear Mr. Hoyle:
Pilot Environmental, Inc. (Pilot) is pleased to submit this report of the wetland delineation for the
approximate 25-acre tract located at 2120 NC Highway 71 in Robeson County, North Carolina.
Background
Wetlands are defined by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "those areas that are inundated or saturated
by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal
circumstances, do support a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil
conditions." In order for an area to be classified as wetland, hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils,
and wetland hydrology indicators must be present.
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) regulates the discharge of dredge and fill materials
into waters of the United States (lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, etc.), including wetlands. Waters
of the United States include the territorial seas, navigable coastal and inland lakes, rivers and
streams, intermittent streams, and wetlands. The EPA and the USACE jointly administer the
Section 404 program. Section 401 of the Clean Water Act grants each state the authority to
approve, condition, or deny any Federal permits that could result in a discharge to State waters.
Jurisdictional features include wetlands, open waters, ponds, lakes and perennial/intermittent
streams. Jurisdictional features are regulated by the USACE and North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality -Division of Water Resources (NCDEQ-DWR). Permits are required prior
to impacting any jurisdictional feature. The type of permit required is specific to the type,
location and amount of impacts. Stormwater management plans and/or mitigation for proposed
impacts could be a requirement of the permit approval process.

The findings and conclusions in this report are our opinions based on field conditions
encountered at the time of the site visit. Changes including, but not limited to, regulations,
weather, timber/vegetation removal and usage/development of the site or nearby properties
can alter the findings and opinions presented in this report. We recommend that this report only
be used for preliminary planning purposes. Agency verifications, followed by a survey of
jurisdictional features, are required to determine the exact extent and locations of jurisdictional
features and are valid for a period of up to five years following issuance of a USACE Jurisdictional
Determination (JD) and/or NCDEQ-DWR Site Determination Letter.
Global Positioning System (GPS) location of jurisdictional features has been conducted by Pilot
personnel in the field utilizing a Trimble handheld GPS unit capable of sub-meter accuracy. Field
GPS data has been post-processed by Pilot personnel and digitally provided to the client for
assistance with preliminary planning. Pilot expresses no warranties or liabilities to accuracy of
GPS locations and/or provided GPS data.
Scope of Services
Pilot was contracted to perform a wetland delineation for the approximate 25-acre tract located
at 2120 NC Highway 71 in Robeson County, North Carolina. The site is identified on the Robeson
County Geographic Information System (GIS) as portions of parcel numbers 110202001, 110202018
and 110202022. The scope of services included a delineation of jurisdictional features (streams,
wetlands and other surface waters) on the site. The site boundary was not marked at the time
of our field delineation.
Literature Review
We reviewed the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Topographic Map, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Soil Survey of Robeson County, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
National Wetland Inventory(NWI) Map and the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA)
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM).
• The USGS Topographic Map (Drawing 1) depicts wetlands that abut the Lumber River on the
site. The map does not depict surface waters on the site. The Lumber River is located
immediately west of the site.
• The USDA Web Soil Survey of Robeson County (Drawing 2) identifies the following mapping
units on the site: Bibb soils (BB), Johns sandy loam (Jo), Kalmia loamy sand (KaA), Lumbee
sandy loam (Lu) and Norfolk and Faceville soils (NsC). The Bibb series consists of poorly
drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on flood plains of streams. The Johns series
consists of somewhat poorly to moderately well drained, moderately permeable soils that
occur on stream terraces. The Kalmia series consists of well drained, moderately permeable
soils that occur on stream terraces. The Lumbee series consists of poorly drained, moderately
permeable soils that occur on stream terraces and flats. The Norfolk series consists of well

drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on marine terraces and uplands. The
Faceville series consists of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on nearly level
to moderately steep uplands. The KaA and NsC soil mapping units are not identified on the
Robeson County Hydric Soils List. The other soil mapping units are identified on the Robeson
County Hydric Soils List.
Pilot also reviewed the last published USDA Soil Survey of Robeson County (Drawing 2A). The
published soil survey does not depict surface waters or wetlands on the site.
• The USFWS NWI Map (Drawing 3) depicts freshwater forested/shrub wetlands on the site,
generally consistent with the USGS Topographic Map. Other surface waters or wetlands are
not depicted on the site.
• The FEMA FIRM (Drawing 4) identifies the western portion of the site as designated floodway
(areas that must be kept free of encroachment), Zone AE (areas within the 100-year flood zone
with base flood elevations determined) and areas within the 500-year flood zone. The
remainder of the site is identified as Zone X, areas outside the 100-year floodplain.
Field Delineation
Pilot conducted the site visit on April 5, 2024. The site contains parking areas, access roads, a
sanitary sewer lift station, a manicured lawn and wooded land. Ponds and streams were not
observed on the site.
A wetland is located on the western portion of the site. The wetland is separated from
surrounding uplands by topographic, vegetation and/or soil breaks. USACE Wetland
Determination Data Forms, supporting our opinions, are included as attachments. The wetland
boundary was marked in the field with red and white striped surveyor tape and geo-located using
a Trimble handheld GPS unit.
Roadside ditches are located on the northern portion of the site. Additional drainage ditches are
located on the eastern portion of the site. The ditches on the site are trough shaped. They do
not contain a defined bed or evidence of an ordinary high-water mark. The ditches were dry at
the time of our site visit. The ditches did not contain stained ground surfaces. Vegetation was
observed growing in the bases of the ditches in most areas. Based on our observations, the
ditches are not considered to be wetland or non-wetland waters and are not regulated features
that are subject to USACE jurisdiction.
Drawing 5 shows the approximate location of the wetlands, ditches, data points and flag
numbers/feature designations. The locations and classifications of features shown on Drawing 5
are subject to change during agency verification of the delineation.

Watershed Classification
The site is located in the Lumber River Basin. The Lumber River is located immediately west of
the site. The NCDEQ-DWR has classified the Lumber River, the receiving waters, as Class B;
swamp (Sw); high quality waters (HQW). Consultation with the local planning authority is
recommended to determine local buffer/stormwater setback requirements for the proposed
development.
Agency Verification
The delineation has not been verified by the USACE. We understand that our flags will be
surveyed to determine the exact extent and locations of jurisdictional features and applicable
surface water buffers. The delineation, including locations and classifications of features, is
subject to change during agency verifications.

We appreciate the opportunity to provide our services to you. Please contact us at (336) 310-
4527 if you have questions or require additional information.
