Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project: The proposed work and associated impacts are intended to stabilize approximately 38 In ft of stream bank along Boone Creek as well as repair and protect the toe of the building from structural failure. Design measures which minimize impacts include installation of natural channel design structures which will improve stream stability and provide habitat. All disturbed buffer areas will be immediately seeded upon completion, matted (coir matting) and stabilized at the close of each day. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: All streambank disturbances will be stabilized same day and covered with coir matting and live staked to reduce sedimentation during construction. Only well maintained equipment will be used; no leaks will be tolerated. Equipment will work from streambanks whenever possible while performing the work and will only work in the channel when absolutely necessary. Following construction the banks of the restored channel will be seeded with a mix of rye (temporary cover) and perennial grasses and clover (permanent seed). The disturbed riparian buffer will be live -staked, seeded, and planted with native woody vegetation. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.

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.

Dear Jordan Bailey: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) received on October 03, 2019 your effects determination for the 'Haircut 101' (the Action) using the northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) key within the Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) system. You indicated that no Federal agencies are involved in funding or authorizing this Action. This IPaC key assists users in determining whether a non -Federal action may cause "take"til of the northern long-eared bat that is prohibited under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) (87 Stat.884, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). Based upon your IPaC submission, any take of the northern long-eared bat that may occur as a result of the Action is not prohibited under the ESA Section 4(d) rule adopted for this species at 50 CFR §17.40(o). Unless the Service advises you within 30 days of the date of this letter that your IPaC-assisted determination was incorrect, this letter verifies that the Action is not likely to result in unauthorized take of the northern long-eared bat. Please report to our office any changes to the information about the Action that you entered into IPaC, the results of any bat surveys conducted in the Action area, and any dead, injured, or sick northern long-eared bats that are found during Action implementation. If your Action proceeds as described and no additional information about the Action's effects on species protected under the ESA becomes available, no further coordination with the Service is required with respect to the northern long-eared bat. The IPaC-assisted determination for the northern long-eared bat does not apply to the following ESA -protected species that also may occur in your Action area: • Blue Ridge Goldenrod, Solidago spithamaea (Threatened) • Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel, Glaucomys sabrinus coloratus (Endangered) • Gray Bat, Myotis grisescens (Endangered) 10/03/2019 IPaC Record Locator: 932-18559899 • Heller's Blazingstar, Liatris helleri (Threatened) • Roan Mountain Bluet, Hedyotis purpurea var. montana (Endangered) • Spreading Avens, Geum radiatum (Endangered) • Spruce -fir Moss Spider, Microhexura montivaga (Endangered) • Virginia Big -eared Bat, Corynorhinus (=Plecotus) townsendii virginianus (Endangered) You may coordinate with our Office to determine whether the Action may cause prohibited take of the animal species listed above. [1]Take means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct [ESA Section 3(19)]. 10/03/2019 IPaC Record Locator: 932-18559899 3 Action Description You provided to IPaC the following name and description for the subject Action. 1. Name Haircut 101 2. Description The following description was provided for the project'Haircut 101': This project is located in Downtown Boone in Watauga County, North Carolina and will include stream stabilization and the repair of a building toe being undercut by Boone Creek. It will occur by the end of the year and construction should only take roughly seven days. Approximate location of the project can be viewed in Google Maps: https://www.google.com/ maps/place/36.2178294689774N81.68512699261262W ? Gran ew 3 Heights,.,Jny� hf �y h�r.�4vh�vi RnW Ui•,ro�drr in Determination Key Result This non -Federal Action may affect the northern long-eared bat; however, any take of this species that may occur incidental to this Action is not prohibited under the final 4(d) rule at 50 CFR §17.40(o). Determination Key Description: Northern Long-eared Bat 4(d) Rule This key was last updated in IPaC on May 15, 2017. Keys are subject to periodic revision. This key is intended for actions that may affect the threatened northern long-eared bat. 10/03/2019 IPaC Record Locator: 932-18559899 4 The purpose of the key for non -Federal actions is to assist determinations as to whether proposed actions are excepted from take prohibitions under the northern long-eared bat 4(d) rule. If a non -Federal action may cause prohibited take of northern long-eared bats or other ESA -listed animal species, we recommend that you coordinate with the Service. 10/03/2019 IPaC Record Locator: 932-18559899 5 Determination Key Result Based upon your IPaC submission, any take of the northern long-eared bat that may occur as a result of the Action is not prohibited under the ESA Section 4(d) rule adopted for this species at 50 CFR §17.40(o). Qualification Interview 1. Is the action authorized, funded, or being carried out by a Federal agency? No 2. Will your activity purposefully Take northern long-eared bats? No 3. Is the project action area located wholly outside the White -nose Syndrome Zone? Automatically answered No 4. Have you contacted the appropriate agency to determine if your project is near a known hibernaculum or maternity roost tree? Location information for northern long-eared bat hibernacula is generally kept in state Natural Heritage Inventory databases — the availability of this data varies state -by -state. Many states provide online access to their data, either directly by providing maps or by providing the opportunity to make a data request. In some cases, to protect those resources, access to the information may be limited. A web page with links to state Natural Heritage Inventory databases is available at www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/mammals/nleb/ nhisites.html. Yes Will the action affect a cave or mine where northern long-eared bats are known to hibernate (i.e., hibernaculum) or could it alter the entrance or the environment (physical or other alteration) of a hibernaculum? No 6. Will the action involve Tree Removal? No 10/03/2019 IPaC Record Locator: 932-18559899 6 Project Questionnaire If the project includes forest conversion, report the appropriate acreages below.
