Thanks so much for the info., Allison. For our surface water discharge permits, we normally look for
aquatic species only. I'm not sure what we would do differently for a plant species here, but I've
copied the permit writer (Mike Randall) and my Supervisor Bradley Bennett. There are obviously
concerns with respect to erosion and sediment control, for example, or other aspects of the larger
project at hand, but those pieces are usually outside the purview of our NPDES permit. I'll make
sure Mike is aware of it, though.
Bradley, do you have any thoughts on this?

Hi, Bethany
I received notice for the Rogers Cliffside Energy Complex project because there is a Federal listed
species within the project area. If you need more information from us for this project, please let me
know. I typically let folks know that they should contact the US Fish and Wildlife Service directly if
there is a Federal listed species within the project area, and for the species that triggered this notice
in particular (Dwarf -flowered Heartleaf — Hexastylis naniflora) we have a lot of information because
we've worked with USFWS on a survey update in the past couple years. James Padgett, a NCNHP
inventory biologist, has likely surveyed this site (and others) for this species.
Also, I may have reviewed a project for this site in the recent past. Let me know if you'd like me to
look it up and send you our comments, if any.
Thanks!
Allison
