From: Euliss, Amy Sent: Monday, March 14, 2016 3:02 PM To: Thomas, John TJR SAW (John.T.Thomas.JR@usace.army.mil) <John.T.Thomas.JR@usace.army.mil> Cc: andrew_henderson@fws.gov; Wanucha, Dave <dave.wanucha@ncdenr.gov>; Chambers, Marla J <marla.chambers@ncwildlife.org>; Jones, Matthew W <mwjones@ncdot.gov> Subject: permit applciation Priddy Farm Road Br 283 Forsyth John, We're replacing Bridge No. 283 on Priddy Farm Road (SR 1639) in Forsyth with a new bridge. We believe this project can be authorized under a NW 3 utilizing the Low Impact Bridge process. This is a courtesy copy for DWR. We committed to a tree clearing moratorium from May 15-August 15 as a conservation measure to avoid disturbing potential Northern long-eared bats in their summer roosting habitat under the `Interim 4d rule'. However, with the issuance of the `Final 4d rule', NCDOT will no longer meet the moratorium. Thus, for the proposed action, NCDOT has committed to the conservation measures listed below: 1) No alterations of a known hibernaculum's entrance or interior environment if it impairs an essential behavioral pattern, including sheltering Northern long-eared bats (January 1 through December 31); 2) No tree removal within a 0.25 mile radius of a known hibernacula (January 1 through December 31); and 3) No cutting or destroying a known, occupied maternity roost tree, or any other trees within a 150-foot radius from the known, occupied maternity tree during the period from June 1 through and including July 31. NCDOT has determined that the proposed action does not require separate consultation on the grounds that the proposed action is consistent with the final Section 4(d) rule, codified at 50 C.F.R. § 17.40(0) and effective February 16, 2016. Section 7 responsibilities are therefore considered fulfilled. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
