Atlas Environmental completed a stream and wetland delineation on June 03, 2024. As of August 14, 2024, a preliminary jurisdictional determination has not been received. The correspondence with the North Carolina Historic Preservation Office and the original documents sent to United States Fish and Wildlife Service Office. There is one stream located within the review area, with both perennial and intermittent sections. CH 100 is approximately 636 linear feet with —462 linear feet (0.023 acres) being intermittent and —174 linear feet (0.011 acres) being perennial. Two wetlands are located within the review area. Wetland WL 1000 (0.101 acres) is located along the Western boundary. WL 1100 (0.054 acres) is located near WL 1000. Both wetlands were observed as shrub -scrub wetlands. The development will require one permanent stream crossing for road access and two permanent wetland impacts for lot grading. Two temporary impacts for construction access/pump around are needed for installation of the culvert. Permanent stream impact is defined as impact S1 which is located on the intermittent section of CH 100 and is approximately 150 linear feet (0.010 acres). Wetland impact W1 is a permanent impact of fill to WL 1000 (N0.011 acres). Wetland impact W2 is a permanent impact of fill to WL 1100 (N0.053 acres). Stream impacts are proposed to less than 24% of the stream on site with the perennial section being preserved. The road impact at the stream is necessary to gain access through the property and provide secondary egress. The wetland impacts are needed for lot grading. Wetland impacts are proposed to approximately 42% of the wetlands on site. No mitigation will be necessary as impacts do not exceed thresholds. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

Version: May 2017 Page 3 Jurisdictional Determination Request F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One) I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminary JD for the property identified herein. A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property. PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is "preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do not expire. I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein. An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years (subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05- 02). ❑ I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information to inform my decision.

Isolated waters, waters that lack a significant nexus to navigable waters, or non - jurisdictional upland features should be identified as Non -Jurisdictional. Please include a justification in the label regarding why the feature is non jurisdictional (i.e. "Isolated", "No Significant Nexus", or "Upland Feature"). Please include the acreage or linear length of these features as appropriate. For Preliminary Jurisdictional Determinations: Wetland and non -wetland features should not be identified as Jurisdictional, 404, Waters of the United States, or anything that implies jurisdiction.

Further, an AJD, 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. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.

Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 2 Fjolla Shishko of Catana Construction Inc. has requested Atlas Environmental to perform a site assessment for Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species that could potentially occur on the subject property and recommend a determination of effects. 1.1 Site Location and Description The subject site is located at 550 Car Farm Road, Lincolnton, North Carolina 28092, and is comprised of two Lincoln County parcels (Parcel ID: 71135 and 72460) totaling approximately 33.418 acres. The project site is within the Maiden 1-24,000 Quadrangle. The project site lies on the South side of Car Farm Road (SR 1339) and on the West side of its intersection with Horseshoe Lake Road (SR 1338), approximately 1.5 driving miles Northeast of the city center of the City of Lincolnton, North Carolina (Appendix C). [PLEASE NOTE: Resource maps included herein only show the original parcel of 32.308 acres (Parcel ID: 71135), and not the added upland parcel.] The ground surface slopes West toward an unnamed tributary of Carpenter Creek. The topographic relief of the project site is approximately 80 feet with an approximate maximum elevation of 1000 feet and minimum elevation of 920 feet above sea level. The entirety of the review area is forested, and the surrounding area is either residential developments or forested areas. 1.2 Project Purpose The proposed project purpose is for the construction of a residential development. The project site will require mechanized land clearing to remove existing vegetation and grading to prepare the ground surface for construction. The development also will require the construction of stormwater treatment, ingress and egress roadways, utilities, and additional associated infrastructure. A U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) Nationwide Permit 29 or Individual Permit may be required for unavoidable impacts to aquatic resources. A preliminary site plan has been provided (Appendix E). 1.3 Endangered Species Act The Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA), provides a program for the conservation of Endangered and Threatened plants and animals and the habitats in which they are found. The lead Federal agencies for implementing the ESA are the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Before a species can receive the protection provided by the ESA, it must first be added to the Federal lists of Endangered and Threatened wildlife and plants. A species is added to this list when the respective Federal agency determines that it has met a definition of Endangered or Threatened under the ESA. Species may also be removed from the list (i.e., "delisted") when they no longer require ESA protection, or have a change in status (i.e., "reclassified"), for example from Endangered or Threatened. Under the ESA, a species must be listed if it is endangered or threatened because of any of the following 5 factors: 1. present or threatened destruction, modification, or curtailment of its habitat or range; 2. over -utilization of the species for commercial, recreational, scientific, or educational ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 3 purposes; 3. disease or predation; 4. inadequacy of existing regulatory mechanisms; and, 5. other natural or manmade factors affecting its continued existence. Additionally, the USFWS and NMFS periodically publish a Notice of Review or Notice of Reclassification in the Federal Register that presents an updated list of plant and animal taxa which are regarded as Candidate or species proposed for possible addition to the Lists of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants. An Endangered species is a taxon "in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range" (ESA, Section 3). A Threatened species is a taxon "likely to become an Endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range" (ESA, Section 3). Candidate species are "taxa for which the Service has on file enough substantial information on biological vulnerability and threat(s) to support proposals to list them as Endangered or Threatened. Proposed rules have not yet been issued because this action is precluded at present by other listing activity. Development and publication of proposed rules on these taxa are anticipated. The Service encourages State and other Federal agencies as well as other affected parties to give consideration to these taxa in environmental planning." (Federal Register, February 28, 1996). Taxa formerly considered as `Category 1' are now considered as `Candidate'. A Federal Species of Concern (FSC) is a species under consideration for listing, for which there is insufficient information to support listing at that time. FSCs may or may not be listed in the future, and many of these species were formerly recognized as "C2" Candidate species. 2 Methods 2.1 Action Area A site assessment for Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate Species includes a thorough search of historical and recent records for potential and known occurrences of species on and in the vicinity of the proposed project site. According to regulation (50 CFR § 402.02), Action Area is defined as all areas to be affected directly or indirectly by the Federal action and not merely the immediate area involved in the action. Initially, we assess a one -mile zone around the property boundaries as the Action Area to ensure we include species that occur nearby, but not necessarily on, the proposed project site. The Action Area is initially defined this way because species may be affected (positively or negatively) by the project that exists in a nearby geographic area. For example, certain aquatic species may appear on the species list because a project could cause downstream effects, such as sedimentation, on the species. The Action Area also may vary depending on the activities associated with the proposed project (e.g., construction, operational, or maintenance activities) and its potential direct and indirect effect on the species identified in the vicinity. For example, operational impacts associated with lighting or noise could affect species that occur away from the project site. In most cases, the Action Area contracts to an area no less than the proposed project boundary but remains species dependent. In some situations, the Action Area may be reduced to an area less than the project boundaries if the proposed action has adequately avoided the potential for any direct or indirect effects. If applicable, the ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte species dependent Action Area is further defined in the individual species account below. 2.2 Information, Planning and Conservation System A record search of the USFWS website is conducted to determine what species are known or believed to occur within the County of the proposed project. The USFWS's Information, Planning, and Conservation System (IPaC) mapping tool also is used to generate a list of Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species, and/or designated Critical Habitat. Species on the IPaC list include species that may be affected by your project and could include species that exist in another geographic area. 2.3 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) GIS database is searched to determine what species or rare natural communities (element occurrences) are known to occur within a one -mile radius of the approximate center of the project site. A list of the Endangered, Threatened, and rare species and communities known to occur within the quadrangle(s) of the proposed project site is generated for the field search. This list indicates what species have been reported as occurring in the State, each county, and within each quadrangle. This is not a complete listing of what exists as no comprehensive survey of the state has ever been conducted. The list also provides the last date of observation and accuracy of the observation. Natural and Managed areas, such as parks, open space, and greenways, known to occur within a one -mile radius of the approximate center of the project site also are documented. 2.4 Field Assessment A site assessment also includes a pedestrian survey of the proposed project site by botanists and biologists with specialized experience in the identification of Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species. Atlas Environmental staff identify potentially suitable habitat for Federally listed species within the project review area based on the species' known and preferred habitat requirements reported in the IPaC and NCNHP reviews. The project review area is then traversed to evaluate all potentially suitable habitat areas for the presence of Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species. 3 Results 3.1 Information, Planning and Conservation System A search of the USFWS's IPaC website (www.ecos.fws.gov/ipac) identified Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species that could occur within the proposed project review area or be impacted downstream (Appendix A). These species include: 1) Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subf/avus), a Proposed Endangered mammal; 2) Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus), a Candidate butterfly; 3) Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf (Hexastylis naniflora), a Threatened flowering plant; and 4) Michaux's Sumac (Rhus michauxii), an Endangered flowering plant. No Critical Habitat has been designated for any species within the Action Area. 3.2 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program A search of the NCNHP website (www.ncnhp.org/web/nhp/database-search) identified no ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

Two element occurrences of a Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species were documented within a one -mile radius of the project area (Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf, EO ID 24369, Last Observation 2001-04-27; and Michaux's Sumac, EO ID 12037, Last Observation Date Pre 1917). No element occurrences of rare species and species or habitats of conservation concern were documented within the project area. Two element occurrences of rare species and species or habitats of conservation concern were documented within a one -mile radius of the project area (Dwarf Threetooth (Triodopsis fulciden), EO ID 37695, State listed Special Concern, Last Observation Date 2006-03-10; and Littleleaf Sneezeweed (Helenium brevifolium), EO ID 33885, State listed Endangered, Last Observation Date 2009-06-26). No Natural areas are documented to exist within the project area. One Natural area is documented to exist within a one -mile radius of the project area (Carpenter Creek Heartleaf Site). No Managed areas are documented to exist within the project area or within a one -mile radius of the project area. 3.3 Field Assessment The field assessment of the project review area was completed on June 3 and July 24, 2024. 3.4 Species of Interest The species identified through the IPaC and NCNHP review have the potential to exist within the project review area or be potentially impacted by the proposed project. Each of these species are described below, including the typical features, suitable habitat requirements, and other related observations by Atlas Environmental. 3.4.1 Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subf/avus) The Tricolored Bat is a species of microbat native to Eastern North America. It was formerly known as the Eastern Pipistrelle, based on the incorrect belief that it was closely related to European Pipistrellus species. Its common name derives from the coloration of the hairs on its back, which have three distinct color bands: dark gray at the base, buffy (yellowish brown) in the middle, and brown or reddish brown at the tip. It is the smallest bat species in the Eastern and Midwestern US, with individuals weighing 0.16-0.28 oz. The Tricolored Bat is a seasonal breeder, with copulation (mating) occurring in the fall before hibernation. Ovulation does not occur until the spring, however, and females store the males' sperm in their uteruses through the winter. Gestation length is about forty-four days, with females giving birth in June or July. The litter size is typically two individuals. As newborns, the combined mass of twin pups can be as great as 58% of the mother's postpartum mass. At birth, the young lack fur and their eyes are closed. The mother leaves the offspring behind at the roost while she forages at night. Offspring develop rapidly, beginning to fly at three weeks old. By four weeks old, they are foraging for themselves. Young do not reach sexual maturity in their first fall; they do not breed until their second fall. Individuals can live 15 years in the wild; juveniles have higher mortality rates than adults, and females have higher mortality rates than males. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 6 During the summer, the Tricolored Bat will roost in tree foliage or buildings, with females alone or in maternity colonies of up to thirty individuals. Trees used for this purpose include oak, maple, the eastern cottonwood, and American tulip tree. Males are solitary and do not form colonies. In the winter, the Tricolored Bat hibernates in mines, caves, or other human structures. A study of a mine in Nebraska found that in the summer, the mine was mostly occupied by males, ranging from zero to forty-three individuals. Bats were in a state of torpor from November to April. More bats used the mine as a roost in the winter than in the summer. In another abandoned mine in Indiana, researchers found that the Tricolored Bat roosts solitarily during hibernation most of the time. The Tricolored Bat is insectivorous, consuming small prey such as mosquitoes, beetles, ants, moths, and cicadas. It forages with slow, erratic flight in areas near water or forest edges. It is one of the first bat species to begin foraging each night. It navigates and searches for prey via echolocation. The Tricolored Bat's natural predators include the northern leopard frog, birds of prey, raccoons, snakes, skunks, and prairie voles. Feral cats will also catch and kill them as they leave their hibernacula. There also are records of it being attacked by the Hoary Bat. The Tricolored Bat is common throughout eastern North America, with the southern extent of its range in Central America and the northern extent in southern Canada. Its range has expanded since the 1980s, with westward expansion reaching Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Additionally, its range started to include the Great Lakes Basin. The Tricolored Bat has experienced severe population decline because of the fungal disease White -nose syndrome, which arrived in the US in 2006, with losses of 70% and greater detected in multiple US states. The disease kills bats by colonizing their skin during the winter, causing them to arouse from torpor and burn through their limited fat reserves. Though its population experienced dramatic reduction, subsequent studies have found that their numbers may be stabilizing. The Tricolored Bat was proposed for listing as Endangered under the ESA on September 13, 2022. Proposed Endangered (PE) species are not protected by the take prohibitions of Section 9 (Prohibited Acts) of the ESA until the rule to list is finalized. Under Section 7(a)(4) of the ESA, federal agencies must confer with the Service if their action will jeopardize the continued existence of a proposed species. 3.4.2 Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus) Adult Monarch butterflies are large and conspicuous, with bright orange wings with a black border and covered with black veins. The black border has a double row of white spots, present on the upper side of the wings. Adult Monarchs are sexually dimorphic, with males having narrower wing venation and scent patches. The bright coloring of a monarch serves as a warning to predators that eating them can be toxic. During the breeding season, Monarchs lay their eggs on their obligate milkweed host plant (primarily Asclepias spp.), and larvae emerge after 2 to 5 days. Larvae develop through five larval instars (intervals between molts) over a period of 9 to 18 days, feeding ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 7 on milkweed and sequestering toxic chemicals as a defense against predators. The larva then pupates into a chrysalis before emerging 6 to 14 days later as an adult butterfly. There are multiple generations of Monarchs produced during the breeding season, with most adult butterflies living approximately 2 to 5 weeks; overwintering adults enter reproductive diapause (suspended reproduction) and live 6 to 9 months. In many regions where Monarchs are present, they breed year-round. Individual Monarchs in temperate climates, such as Eastern and Western North America, undergo long-distance migration, and live for an extended period. In the fall, in both Eastern and Western North America, Monarchs begin migrating to their respective overwintering sites. This migration can take Monarchs distances of over 2000 miles and last for more than two months. In early spring (February -March), surviving Monarchs break diapause and mate at the overwintering sites before dispersing. The same individuals that undertook the initial southward migration begin flying back through the breeding grounds and their offspring start the next cycle of generational migration. The Monarch butterfly is a Candidate species and not yet listed or proposed for listing. There generally are no ESA protections or Section 7 (Interagency Cooperation) requirements for Candidate species, but the USFWS encourages any opportunity to conserve the species. 3.4.3 Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf (Hexastylis nanif/ora) Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf is an evergreen perennial that grows low to the ground in the foothills and piedmont of North Carolina. Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf is a rhizomatous perennial herb forming a small patch on the ground, the leaves emerging from the underground rhizome. The evergreen leaves have leathery heart -shaped blades, typically 4 to 5 inches long. The plant produces one new leaf per year. The plant flowers from mid -March to early June, although flowers may persist after the flowering period. The fleshy brown flowers are jug -shaped and may remain buried in the leaf litter. Definite identification of the species is completed by measurements of the flower, however it can be differentiated from other species, such as H. arifolia, by leaf shape and dimensions. Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf occurs in oak -hickory -pine plant communities. It typically grows on slopes near streams in moist, acidic soils and usually on North facing slopes. The plant is known from the Piedmont region of southern North Carolina and northern South Carolina. The primary threat to the species was loss and degradation of its habitat. Much of the plant's historical habitat was converted to agriculture, particularly peach orchards, and developed into residential areas. Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf was Federally listed as Threatened wherever found on April 14, 1989. The USFWS proposed to remove the Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Plants on April 26, 2021. The proposed delisting is based on a thorough review of the best available scientific and commercial data, which indicate that the threats to the species have been eliminated or reduced to the point that the species no longer meets the definition of a Threatened species under the ESA. A final decision on Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf has not been published. No Critical Habitat has been designated for the Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 8 3.4.4 Michaux's Sumac (Rhus michauxii) Michaux's Sumac is a rhizomatous, densely hairy shrub, with erect stems from 1 to 3 feet in height. The compound leaves contain evenly serrated, oblong to lanceolate, acuminate leaflets. Most plants are unisexual; however, more recent observations have revealed plants with both male and female flowers on one plant. The flowers are small, borne in a terminal, erect, dense cluster, and colored greenish yellow to white. Flowering usually occurs from June to July; while the fruit, a red drupe, is produced through the months of August to October. Michaux's Sumac grows in sandy or rocky open woods in association with basic soils. The habitat area is moister than surrounding habitat types. The plant survives best in areas where some form of disturbance has provided an open area so it can receive sunlight. Michaux's Sumac is threatened by the loss and degradation of its habitat and by barriers to reproduction. Much of its habitat has been cleared for residential, industrial, and agricultural operations, including silviculture, and the construction of roads. As the plant requires open habitat, it may arise in artificially cleared areas such as roadsides. There it is vulnerable to destruction from construction, maintenance, and herbicides. This plant also has difficulty reproducing. It is clonal, often reproducing vegetatively, so populations are low in genetic variability. One major reproductive problem is that many populations are composed entirely of one sex. Furthermore, the populations are small and very widely spaced, making reproduction impossible. Michaux's Sumac was listed as endangered wherever found on September 28, 1989. No Critical Habitat has been designated for Michaux's Sumac. 4 Findings and Determinations The following findings and determinations are based on the review of available resources including IPaC and NCNHP websites, applicable regulatory guidelines, and the field assessment performed by Atlas Environmental. 4.1 Tricolored Bat The Action Area for the Tricolored Bat is defined as the project site. According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, the Tricolored Bat is known, or believed, to occur in the proposed project County. Because the Tricolored Bat is a Proposed Endangered species, the species is not protected by the take prohibitions of Section 9 (Prohibited Acts) of the ESA until the rule to list is finalized. Under Section 7(a)(4) of the ESA, federal agencies must confer with the USFWS if their action will jeopardize the continued existence of a proposed species. 4.2 Monarch Butterfly The Action Area for Monarch Butterfly is defined as the project site. According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, the Monarch butterfly is known, or believed, to occur in the proposed project County. No occurrences of Monarch butterflies were observed within the Action Area. Because the Monarch butterfly is a Candidate species and not yet listed or proposed for listing, there generally are no ESA protections or ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com I Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 9 Section 7 (Interagency Cooperation) requirements for Candidate species. 4.3 Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf Habitat for Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf is typically defined as slopes near streams in moist, acidic soils, and usually on North facing slopes, of oak -hickory -pine plant communities, and is generally limited to those upland areas within 100 linear feet from the streams or wetlands (excluding upland ponds). However, the Action Area for Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf for this project is defined as the project site. According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf is known, or believed, to occur in the proposed project Count, but there are no known occurrences of the species within the Action Area. The optimal survey window for Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf is March through May. Atlas Environmental thoroughly traversed all areas within the Action Area. Aquatic resources in the form of perennial and intermittent streams and wetlands were observed on the property (Appendix C). Hexastylis plants were initially observed during the site visit on June 3, 2024. However, because the survey was conducted outside of the optimal survey window plant identification at the species level could not be confirmed. A second site visit was conducted on July 24, 2024, to ascertain the extent and number of plants within the project site and confirm plants in the Virginica group or Heterophylla subgroup from plants identified as Hexastylis arifolia. The following taxonomic keys were used to assist in the identification of plants: Gaddy 1987 (A Review of the Taxonomy and Biogeography of Hexastylis (Aristolochiaceae)); North Carolina State University's Herbarium website and information compiled by Dr. Alexander Krings that has been adapted from Blomquist (1957 [Brittonic]), Gaddy (1987 [Castanea]), Whittemore and Gaddy (1997 [FNA]), Weakley (2008), and Gaddy (2011 [Phytoneuron]); and, the online edition of Flora of the Southeastern United States (available online at https-//fsus.ncbg.unc.edu/). A total of 233 individual Hexastylis species plants were observed within the Action Area (Appendix F). None of these plants were identified as H. arifolia. All plants were in the Virginica or Heterophylla subgroup. No plants were identified as Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf because the site visit occurred outside of the optimal survey window. All Hexastylis species were observed along the Southern side of wetland areas WL 1000 and WL 1100. Hexastylis were not observed anywhere else within the Action Area. We used the USFWS's example order of operations for Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf (DFHL) to guide the effects determination for the species. 1. Is suitable habitat present for DFHL? a. If no, consultation not needed. If yes, go to #2__ 2. Are plants In Hexastylis genus present? a. If no, we recommend NLAA. Ask for concurrence. c-bIf yes, go to 93, 3. Are the e�y`Iis plants present only arifolia? a. If yes, we recommend NLAA. Ask for concurrence. c --h. If no, go to #4. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

Are any of the non-arifolia plants identified as naniflora? a. If no, indicate what congeners were identified. We recommend NLAA. Ask for ___ concurrence. _ b If yes, go to #5 5. If naniflora identified on site: all non-arifolia plants are naniflora. We recommend MA. Continue -----informal or formal consultation. b. Identify each Hexastylis plant on site. It this option is chosen, provide the following: i. A map showing the location of each plant and what it was IDed as or no ID because there wasn't a flower. ii. Ratio of plants with flowers vs. no flowers. iii. Of plants with flowers, ratio of naniflora vs. congeners. Based on the order of operations, the recommended effects determination for Dwarf - flowered Heartleaf for this project is "May Affect" and to continue with informal or formal consultation. 4.4 Michaux's Sumac Habitat for Michaux's Sumac is typically defined as sandy or rocky open woods in association with basic soils that are moister than surrounding habitat types and survives best in areas where some form of disturbance has provided an open area so it can receive sunlight. However, the Action Area for Michaux's Sumac for this project is defined as the project site. According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, Michaux's Sumac is known, or believed, to occur in the proposed project County and there is a historic element occurrence of Michaux's Sumac within one mile radius of the project area last observed 1917-Pre, but there are no known occurrences of the species within the Action Area. The optimal survey window for Michaux's Sumac is May through October. Atlas Environmental staff thoroughly traversed all areas within the project site during the optimal survey window. The Action Area is an undisturbed forested area that does not provide suitable habitat for Michaux's Sumac. No suitable habitat for Michaux's Sumac occurs anywhere within the Action Area. No individual occurrences of Michaux's Sumac were observed to exist within the Action Area. As a result, we have proposed a "No Effect" determination for Michaux's Sumac. 4.5 Species and Effects Determination Summary Table Species Listed Habitat Species Effects Determination Status Present Observed Tricolored Bat PE -- -- N/A Monarch Butterfly C -- -- N/A Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf T Yes Undetermined May Affect Michaux's Sumac E No No No Effect 5 Conclusions ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

No Federally listed species, except potentially Dwarf - flowered Heartleaf, is expected to be adversely affected by the proposed project. No other Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species or their habitats were observed within the project review area. 5.2 Permitting If impacts to regulated waters or wetlands are required to develop the property, Condition 18 (Endangered Species) of Nationwide Permit (NWP) 29 is applicable as follows: (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a Threatened or Endangered species or a species proposed for such designation, as identified under the ESA, or which will directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity is authorized under any NWP which "may affect" a listed species or critical habitat, unless ESA Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed. Direct effects are the immediate effects on listed species and critical habitat caused by the NWP activity. Indirect effects are those effects on listed species and critical habitat that are caused by the NWP activity and are later in time, but still are reasonably certain to occur. (b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of the ESA. If pre -construction notification is required for the proposed activity, the Federal permittee must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate documentation has been submitted. If the appropriate documentation has not been submitted, additional ESA Section 7 consultation may be necessary for the activity and the respective Federal agency would be responsible for fulfilling its obligation under Section 7 of the ESA. (c) Non -Federal permittees must submit a pre -construction notification to the district engineer if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated critical habitat, and shall not begin work on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the requirements of the ESA have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might affect Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre- construction notification must include the name(s) of the Endangered or Threatened species that might be affected by the proposed activity or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the proposed activity. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity "may affect" or will have "no effect" to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non -Federal applicant of the Corps' determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre -construction notification. In cases where the non -Federal applicant has identified listed species or critical habitat that might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, and has so notified the Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps has provided notification that the proposed activity will have "no effect" on listed species or critical habitat, or until ESA Section 7 consultation has been completed. If the non -Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

(e) Authorization of an activity by an NWP does not authorize the "take" of a Threatened or Endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization (e.g., an ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with "incidental take" provisions, etc.) from the FWS or the NMFS, the ESA prohibits any person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word "harm" in the definition of "take" means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may include significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding or sheltering. (f) If the non -Federal perm ittee has a valid ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit with an approved Habitat Conservation Plan for a project or a group of projects that includes the proposed NWP activity, the non -Federal applicant should provide a copy of that ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit with the PCN required by paragraph (c) of this general condition. The district engineer will coordinate with the agency that issued the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit to determine whether the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA Section 7 consultation conducted for the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. If that coordination results in concurrence from the agency that the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA Section 7 consultation for the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit, the district engineer does not need to conduct a separate ESA Section 7 consultation for the proposed NWP activity. The district engineer will notify the non -Federal applicant within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre -construction notification whether the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit covers the proposed NWP activity or whether additional ESA Section 7 consultation is required. (g) Information on the location of Threatened and Endangered species and their critical habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the USFWS and NMFS or their world wide web pages at http-//www.fws.gov/ or http-//www.fws.gov/ipac_and http-//www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/esa/ respectively. 5.3 Conclusion This concludes the subject project review and report of findings for Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species.

The enclosed 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.). Please note that new species information can change your official species list. 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. The Service recommends you visit the EC05-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation to ensure your species list is accurate or obtain an updated species 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 cany out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat. A biological assessment (BA) or biological evaluation (BE) Should he completed for your project. A BA is required for major construction activities (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) considered to be 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)) (NEPA). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a BE be prepared to determine effects of the action and whether those effects may affect listed species and/or designated critical habitat. Effects of the action are all consequences to listed species or critical habitat that are caused by the proposed action, including the consequences of other ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

If a Federal agency determines 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. The Service is not required to concur with "no effecC determinations from Federal action agencies. If consultation is required, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species, proposed critical habitat, and at -risk species be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or licensed applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at the following web link: https://www.fws.y-oWmedia/endan ee red -species -consultation - handbook. Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species under the Act, 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 Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12 and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). More information about MBTA and BGEPA can be found at the following web link: https://www.fws. oy/pro r� atory-birds. We appreciate your consideration of Federally listed species.

Natural Heritage PrWam NCNHDE-26221 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 suitabie habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and con se rvati on/man aged areas within a one -mite 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.
