1 MITIGATION PROJECT SUMMARY
Environmental Banc & Exchange, LLC (EBX), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Resource Environmental
Solutions (RES), is pleased to provide this Mitigation Plan for the Bohemian Riparian Buffer Mitigation
Project (Project) as a full -delivery buffer mitigation project for the Division of Mitigation Services (DMS)
(DMS 9100108). This Project is designed to provide riparian buffer mitigation credits for unavoidable
impacts due to development within the Randleman Lake Watershed of the Cape Fear River Basin,
United States Geological Survey (USGS) 8 -digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC — 03030003) (Figure 1).
This Mitigation Plan is in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295
and the Randleman Lake Water Supply Watershed Buffer Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0250.
1.1 Project Overview
The conservation easement of the Bohemian Project will total approximately 22.78 acres and divided into
two distinct sections (east and west) and includes seven unnamed tributaries that ultimately drain into
Randleman Lake approximately 3,000 feet downstream of the Project. Land use within the western portion
Project is primarily cropland and disturbed riparian forest with the presence of invasive species. Land use
within the eastern portion Project is primarily actively grazed non -forested pasture and disturbed riparian
forest with the presence of invasive species. Furthermore, livestock have historically had access to all
stream reaches within the eastern portion of the Project. The lack of riparian buffer trees and the long-term
presence of livestock in those areas has contributed to bank instability and erosional rills within some
riparian zones.
The goal of the Project is to restore, enhance and preserve ecological function to the existing stream and
riparian buffer by establishing appropriate plant communities while minimizing temporal and land
disturbing impacts. Buffer improvements and the removal of livestock will aid in filtering runoff from
agricultural fields, thereby reducing nutrient and sediment loads to Project channels and the overall
watershed. Restoration, enhancement and preservation of the Randleman Lake riparian buffer (as defined
in 15A NCAC 02B .0250) is anticipated to result in a reduction of the water quality stressors currently
affecting the Project: livestock access and a lack of riparian buffer. Immediate water quality benefits and
pollutant removal within the vicinity of the Project will include the exclusion of livestock access to streams
and reduction in nutrient loads from agricultural land -uses. This Project is consistent with the management
strategy for maintaining and protecting riparian areas in the Randleman Lake watershed. Project attributes
are summarized in Table 1.
Bohemian Mitigation Project Buffer Mitigation Plan
DMS Project #: 100108 1 October 2019

Table 1. Project Attributes
The easement is comprised of two main sections, divided by Frazier Marsh Road. There is an existing
overhead powerline easement that bisects both the western and eastern portions of the Project (Figure 2).
The Project section to the west of Frazier Marsh Road is comprised of four channels: MAI, MA3, MA4,
and MA5. The eastern section is comprised of three channels: SQ1, SQ2, and Sa.
MAI is a 3,958 linear -foot unnamed perennial tributary that is the primary feature within the western
portion of the project. MAI flows directly into Randleman Lake approximately 3,000 feet downstream of
the Project. There is one existing culvert and one agricultural crossing located on MAI, and one additional
easement break to accommodate an overhead powerline utility. There is one crossing on MA3. Reaches
MA3, MA4, and MA5 are intermittent tributaries that drain to MAI (Figure 2). MA3 is a 753 linear -foot
reach that starts as a fork and is an intermittent tributary that flows from east to west across the project
property and empties into MAI. There is one proposed easement break to maintain an existing culvert
crossing along Reach MA3. MA4 starts as an ephemeral tributary (117 linear feet) within the Project as it
runs through active row crop, then transitions to an intermittent stream (132 linear feet) as it enters a
disturbed forested area before draining to MAI (Figure 2). MA5 is a 361 linear -foot intermittent tributary
that also flows through active row crop then enters a disturbed riparian forest before draining to MAI.
SQ1 is a 1,275 linear -foot unnamed perennial tributary that is the primary drainage feature within the
eastern portion of the Project (Figure 2). The channel runs through a grazed pasture and forest before
crossing a powerline utility and converging with Reach SQ2. North of the utility corridor, there is a farm
path on the west side of SQ1. SQ2 is a 597 linear -foot unnamed intermittent tributary that flows into SQ1.
This channel runs from the south to the north. There is one proposed easement break along SQ2 and one
along SQ1, to accommodate the overheard powerline. Reach Sa originates on the property as a small

ephemeral channel (119 linear feet) before transitioning to an intermittent tributary (61 linear feet) that
drains to SQ1. The eastern portion of the Project will exclude livestock along the easement boundary.
Stream calls were performed and confirmed by DWR on June 12th, 2018, and included in the Appendix
A.
DWR staff performed an onsite viability assessment for buffer mitigation on August 10, 2018.
Correspondence regarding this assessment is provided in Appendix B and dated August 8, 2018
and August 10, 2018. Of the total 22.78 acres in the conservation easement, the Bohemian Site presents
the opportunity to perforin 962,506 fV (22.10 acres) of riparian buffer mitigation by establishing a native
forested and herbaceous riparian buffer plant community with a minimum width of 50 feet and a maximum
of 200 feet from the top of bank of the channels. These will be derived from 10.79 acres of zero to 100 feet
of Restoration, 1.02 acres of 101 to 200 feet of Restoration, 3.31 acres of zero to 100 feet of Enhancement,
6.75 acres of zero to 100 feet of Preservation, 0.22 acres of 101 to 200 feet of Preservation. This new
community will be established in conjunction with the treatment of any existing exotic or undesirable plant
species. Figure 3 shows the Riparian Buffer Conceptual Design and Credit Determination Map and
Section 2.1 provides details of the mitigation determination on the Bohemian Project.
The Project will provide significant functional uplift to the watershed and will assist DMS with achieving
its mitigation goals in the Randleman Lake Watershed. The Project presents the opportunity to provide up
to 578,652.085 ft' (10.79 acres) of riparian buffer mitigation credits.
1.1.1 Parcel Ownership
The land required for the construction, management, and stewardship of this Project includes portions of
the parcels listed in Table 2. EBX will obtain conservation easements from the current landowners. The
easement deeds and survey plats will be submitted to DMS and the State Property Office (SPO) for approval
and will be held by the State of North Carolina. The easement deeds will follow the DMS Full Delivery
Conservation Easement Template dated May 5, 2017 and is included in Appendix C. Once recorded, the
secured easements will allow EBX to proceed with the Project development and protect the mitigation
assets in perpetuity. Once finalized, a copy of the land protection instrument(s) will be included in
Appendix C.

DMS Project #: 100108 3 October 2019

The Project is located in both Guilford and Randolph County, approximately 5 miles east of Archdale,
North Carolina (Figure 4). To access the western portion of the Project, head east from I-74 on NC
Highway 62 W, turn right onto Groonetown Rd, after approximately 1.5 miles the site will be on the left.
To access the eastern portion of the Project, head east from I-74 on NC Highway 62 W, turn right onto
Frazier Farm Rd, after approximately a half mile, the site will be on the left. The coordinates for the
western portion of the project are 35.914 °N and -79.884 °W. The coordinates for the eastern portion of
the project are 35.912 °N and -79.873 °W.
1.3 Existing Conditions
1.3.1 Surface Water Classification
The Project includes seven unnamed tributaries that drain into Randleman Lake downstream of the Project
(Figure 3). The current State classification for Randleman Lake is Class CA* and WS -IV. Class C waters
are protected for uses such as secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, and aquatic life
including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, and agriculture. The * symbol
identifies waters that are within a designated Critical Supply Watershed and are subject to a special
management strategy specified in 15A NCAC 2B .0248. The WS -IV classification is intended to protect
waters used as sources of water supply for drinking, culinary, or food processing purposes where a WS -I,
II or III classification is not feasible. These waters are also protected for Class C uses. WS -IV waters are
generally in moderately to highly developed watersheds or protected areas (NCDWQ 2013).
1.3.2 Physiography and Soils
The Project is located in the Southern Outer Piedmont level IV ecoregion within the Piedmont level III
ecoregion. With lower elevations and less relief compared to other areas of the Piedmont, the landforms
of this ecoregion consist of irregular, rolling plains. The geologic composition of the region is red, clayey
subsoils underlain by deep saprolite and gneiss, schist, and granite bedrock. Interspersed throughout the
region are also areas of diabase, diorite, or gabbro bedrock that form alkaline soils. Natural vegetation
communities consist of mixed oak (Quercus sp.) forests, while historic land use trends have promoted the
establishment of loblolly (Pinus taeda) and shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata) forests. The topography of the
project area is generally rolling with elevations ranging from ranging from 706 feet to 788 feet (Figure
5).
The National Resources Conservation Service (MRCS) Web Soil Survey, accessed November 27, 2018,
depicts five map units across the project (Figure 6, Table 3).

1.3.3 Wetlands
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS)National Wetland Inventory (NWI) depicts one wetland area
within the Project (Figure 7). This NWI wetland is defined as a palustrine wetland that is temporarily
flooded (PFOIA). These types of wetlands generally have surface water present for brief periods during
the growing season, but the water table lies well below the ground surface for most of the season (USFWS,
2019).
1.3.4 Landscape Communities
A. Existing Vegetation Communities
Current land use in the vicinity of the Bohemian Project is primarily non -forested agricultural fields, non -
forested and forested pasture grazed by livestock, mature forest with recent timbering, and disturbed
mature riparian forest. Existing tree species within the forested areas include American sycamore
(Platanus occidentalis), American elm (Ulmus americana), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and red
cedar (Juniperus virginiana). The non -forested areas consist primarily of pasture grasses and weedy
herbaceous vegetation. Invasive species are present throughout the forested understory, most notably
multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), princess tree (Paulownia tomentosa), tree of heaven (Ailanthus
altissima), and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense).
B. Riparian Vegetation
In general, all or portions of the riparian buffers of the project reaches do not function to their full potential.
Current conditions demonstrate significant habitat degradation as a result of impacts from livestock,
historic land uses, and water diversion. The long-term presence of livestock, specifically on the eastern
portion of the Project, has created unstable banks and erosional rills within some riparian zones and along
stream banks in which minor bank stabilization efforts will be performed. Throughout the Project there
are scattered invasive vines and briars that will be treated to the extent practicable. In most cases, the
riparian buffer is in poor condition with many areas having less than the minimum 50 -foot required buffer.
Those areas with less than the minimum 50 -foot buffer are devoid of trees or shrubs and active cropland
(western portion of the Project) and active pasture (eastern portion of the Project) on the banks of the
existing channel.

2 REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
2.1 Determination of credits
This Project has the potential to generate approximately 484,526.585 ft2 (10.79 acres) of riparian buffer
restoration credits on existing non -forested pasture, 72,168.500 ft2 (1.66 acres) of buffer enhancement
credits through livestock exclusion, and 21,958.800 ft2 (0.50 acres) of buffer preservation credits. The
riparian buffer restoration and preservation adjacent to the ephemeral Reaches Sa and Ma4 comprises
39,071 ft2 (0.9 acres) of the Project, which is in compliance with 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(7) in that it is
only 4.3 percent of the total area of buffer mitigation, which is less than 25 percent of the total area of
buffer mitigation (22.10 total acres). In accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(4) and (5), "the area
of preservation credit within a buffer mitigation site shall comprise of no more than 25% of the total area
of buffer mitigation", only 5.04 acres out of the 6.97 total acres available for preservation credit are
allowable to be used to generate mitigation credits. The total potential mitigation credits that the Bohemian
Mitigation Project will generate are summarized in Table 4, Table 5, and Figure 3.

2.2 Other regulatory considerations
2.2.1 Environmental Screening and Documentation
Because DMS mitigation projects are considered to be a category of activities that do not individually or
cumulatively have an impact on the human environment, they do not require preparation of an
environmental assessment or environmental impact statement. To ensure that a project meets the
"Categorical Exclusion" criteria, the Federal Highways Administration and DMS have developed a
Categorical Exclusion (Cat -Ex) checklist. The Cat -Ex for the Project was submitted to DMS on July 31St
2019 and is included in Appendix D.
The regulatory evaluation for the Cat -Ex focused primarily on the presence of hazardous materials, utilities
and restrictive easements, rare/threatened/endangered species or critical habitats, cultural resources, and
the potential for hydrologic trespass. The Cat -Ex summarized impacts to natural, cultural, and historical
resources and documented coordination with stakeholders and federal and state agencies.
2.2.2 Threatened and Endangered Species
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 requires federal agencies, in consultation with
and with the assistance of the Secretary of the Interior or of Commerce, as appropriate, to ensure that
actions they authorize, fund or carry out are not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of threatened
or endangered species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat for these
species. The gold and bald eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA)
and prohibits take of bald and golden eagles.
A desktop analysis and field investigation were conducted to evaluate federally protected species
potentially occurring on the Project. The USFWS Information for Planning and Conservation (IPAC)
online tool was consulted to determine any resources managed or regulated by the USFWS that may be
affected by mitigation -related activities at the Project; the tool queries available databases of endangered
species, migratory birds, wildlife refuges, and wetlands. In addition to the USFWS IPAC tool, a query of
the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP 2018) online database of natural heritage element
occurrences was also reviewed performed to identify rare species or unique habitats onsite, especially
those listed in the USFWS database. According to the USFWS IPAC database review tool (USFWS 2017),
Randolph and Guilford County's list of threatened and endangered species includes two Federally listed
species; Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) and the Small Whorled Pogonia (Istoria
medeoloides).
There is no suitable habitat for the Small Whorled Pogonia within the Project area. However, it was
determined that there is potential habitat present for the Schweinitz's sunflower within the Project Area.
Following the August 20t'', 2019 field evaluation for Schweinitz's sunflower, it was determined that there
is suitable habitat present, however no individuals were observed. Therefore, the RES concluded that the
Project is not likely to adversely affect any Schweinitz's sunflower populations. Documentation is
included in Appendix E.
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) of the United States was enacted to protect fish and
wildlife when federal actions result in the control or modification of a natural stream or body of water.
RES requested comment from the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC). The
Bohemian Mitigation Project Buffer Mitigation Plan
DMS Project #: 100108 9 October 2019

NCWRC responded on June 10th, 2019 and stated there are no records for any listed aquatic species in
the vicinity of the Project, and that due to the lack of records from the site it does not imply nor confirm
the absence of federal or state -listed species. Furthermore, the NCWRC stated that if any Greensboro
burrowing crayfish are located on the Project, that the NCWRC should be notified. The NCWRC further
recommended to leave any snags and/or mature trees intact and if necessary, remove the trees outside of
the maternity roosting season for bats (May 15 -August 15). The NCWRC stated that it is unlikely the
proposed buffer mitigation will adversely affect any federal or state -listed species. All correspondence is
included in Appendix E.
2.2.3 Cultural Resources
Environmental and cultural resources include historic and archeological resources located in or near the
Project. A review of properties listed on the North Carolina National Register of Historic Places
maintained by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (NCSHPO 2018) was conducted for
the Project and surrounding areas. This search did not reveal any occurrence within the project area. This
search did not reveal any occurrence within the project area. The Walton-Coletrane House (RD0030), Joe
Coltrane House (RD0044), Claude Coletrane House & Farm (RD0041), and Richardson-Shackleford
House (RD0066) are located within 0.5 mile of the project area. No architectural structures or
archeological artifacts have been observed or noted during surveys of the Project for restoration purposes.
RES requested review and comment from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) with respect to
any archaeological and architectural resources related to the Project. All correspondence is included in
Appendix E.
2.2.4 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)/ Hydrologic Trespass
According to the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, the Project lies within four FEMA Flood Insurance
Rate Map panels and is not within a mapped FEMA Regulatory Floodway or 100 -year floodplain (Figure
8) (FEMA, 2007 & 2008). Thus, no coordination with the Randolph County Floodplain Administrator will
be required prior to mitigation work. Furthermore, no hydrologic trespass will be permitted to adjacent
properties upstream or downstream of the Project.
2.2.5 Clean Water Act -Section 401/404
Due to the nature of this project a 401/404 permit will not be required.

3 RIPARIAN RESTORATION, ENHANCEMENT, AND PRESERVATION
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Riparian restoration, enhancement, and preservation areas adjacent to streams are shown in Figure 3, and
were approved by the DWR in the letters dated August 8, 2018 and August 10, 2018 (Appendix B)
3.1 Site Preparation
Preparation at the Project will involve spraying undesired fescue grass and exotic invasive species,
contoured ripping, seeding, and planting. On the eastern section of the Project, where livestock currently
graze, livestock will be excluded from the entire easement area by installing a permanent fence.
Stabilization and implementation of dispersal techniques will be utilized where surface flows have become
concentrated.
Immediately following completion of stabilization activities, disturbed areas will be stabilized to prevent
erosion. If possible, topsoil will be stockpiled and re-applied to provide a favorable seed bed. To provide
a rapid herbaceous cover, planting of a temporary seed mix will be required. Areas of compacted soil will
be ripped and disked prior to seed mix application and tree planting. Soil amendments will be provided as
needed based on the results of soil fertility tests.
3.2 Materials
A combination of silt fencing, erosion control wattles, temporary seeding, and erosion control matting will
be used to reduce erosion and stabilize soil in riparian areas during any land disturbance activities. These
erosion control measures shall be inspected and properly maintained at the end of each working day to
ensure measures are functioning properly until permanent vegetation is established. Disturbed areas shall
be temporarily seeded within ten working days and upon completion of final grading, permanent
vegetation shall be established for all disturbed areas. After construction activities, the subsoil will be
scarified and any compaction will be deep tilled before the topsoil is placed back over the site. Any topsoil
that is removed during construction will be stockpiled and placed over the project area during final soil
preparation. This process should provide favorable soil conditions for plant growth. Bare root plantings
and live stakes shall be planted according to detail shown in the planting plan.
3.3 Methods
All restoration, enhancement, and preservation activities will begin from the tops of the stream banks and
extend a minimum of 50 feet from the stream outward to a maximum of 200 feet perpendicular to the
stream channel. Vegetation within riparian buffers can vary depending on disturbance regime and adjacent
community types, so the protected buffer easement will be planted with appropriate native species
observed in the surrounding forest and species known to occur in similar environments (Section 3.4). hi
areas with some canopy cover, the buffer restoration areas are determined based on whether there are less
than 25 percent of the tree canopy cover and a lack of dense growth of smaller woody stems (i.e. shrubs
or saplings) and enhancement areas are determined as being higher than 25 percent but lower than what is
deemed appropriate for the location in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A
NCAC 02B .0295 (b)(12), 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (b)(4). Restoration and enhancement areas were also
determined by the mitigation determination performed during the viability assessment by DWR
(Appendix B).
Bohemian Mitigation Project Buffer Mitigation Plan
DMS Project #: 100108 11 October 2019

3.3.1 Riparian Restoration Activities
Buffer restoration activities will include planting a composition of native bare -root tree species based on
reference reach data and excluding livestock from the stream and buffer area. The restoration of plant
communities within the Project will not only provide stabilization and improve water quality within the
easement limits, but will also provide ecological benefits to the entire watershed.
3.3.2 Riparian Enhancement Activities
Enhancement will occur in forested areas within the Project, found in small patches along SQ1, SQ2, and
a small portion of Sa, where grazing occurs adjacent to the stream in accordance with the Consolidated
Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(6) (Figure 3). All livestock will be removed from the
easement and the fence will be installed to exclude access to riparian areas and their associated streams.
3.3.3 Riparian Preservation Activities
Buffer preservation is proposed along Reach MAI, MA3, MA4, and MA5 are in accordance with the
Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(5) (Figure 3). Mature hardwood forest is
present on the right bank of MAI, on the left and right bank of MA3, on the left and right bank of the most
downstream portion of MA4, and on the left and right bank of the most downstream portion of MA5.
3.4 Planting Plan
All riparian restoration areas will be planted from top of bank back at least 50 -feet from the stream with
bare root tree seedlings on an eight by eight -foot spacing to achieve an initial density of 680 trees per acre.
Planting of the Project where riparian buffer restoration is being performed will meet the performance
standards outlined in the Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295. The vegetation data will be collected no earlier than
late August of each year. This includes treating invasive species and planting at least four species of native
hardwood bare root trees. Piedmont Alluvial Forest (Schafale 2012) will be the target community type and
will be used for all areas within the Project. This forest system is common throughout Piedmont drainages
and will provide water quality and ecological benefits. The initial planting of bare root trees will occur
before spring 2020. Wherever possible, mature vegetation will be preserved and incorporated into the
buffer. Some areas adjacent to the forested areas may require maintenance due to the rapid regeneration
of some species, such as red maple (Acer rubrum) and sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua). The planting
plan proposed for the project is shown in Table 6.

3.5 Easement Boundaries
Easement boundaries will be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction between the Project and
adjacent properties. Boundaries may be identified by marker, bollard, post, tree -blazing, or other means
as allowed by Project conditions and/or conservation easement. Boundaries will be marked with signs
identifying the property as a mitigation project and will include the name of the long-term steward and a
contact number. Boundary markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be repaired and/or replaced on
an as needed basis. The easement boundary will be fenced where needed to ensure livestock are excluded
as required by 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (0)(6) (Figure 3). The easement boundary will be checked annually
as part of monitoring activities and the conditions as well as any maintenance performed will be reported
in the annual monitoring reports to DWR.
Bohemian Mitigation Project Buffer Mitigation Plan
DMS Project #: 100108 13 October 2019

4 MONITORING PLAN
4.1 Monitoring Protocol and Success Criteria
Annual vegetation monitoring and visual assessments will be conducted. Riparian buffer vegetation
monitoring will be based on the "Carolina Vegetation Survey -Ecosystem Enhancement Program Protocol
for Recording Vegetation: Level 1-2 Plot Sampling Only Version 4.2". Monitoring plots will be installed
a minimum of 100 meters squared in size and will cover at least two percent of the planted mitigation area.
These plots will be randomly placed throughout the planted riparian buffer mitigation area (11.81 acres)
and will be representative of the riparian buffer restoration and enhancement areas where applicable (i.e.
when enhancement credit is being generated from supplemental planting under 15A NCAC 02B .0295
(n)). The following data will be recorded for all trees in the plots: species, height, planting date (or
volunteer), and grid location. All stems in plots will be flagged with flagging tape. There will be ten (10)
fixed vegetation monitoring plots (Figure 9).
Photos will be taken at all vegetation plot origins each monitoring year and be provided in the annual
reports. Visual inspections and photos will be taken to ensure that enhancement areas are being maintained
and compliant. The measures of vegetative success for the Project will be the survival of at least four
native hardwood tree species, where no one species is greater than 50 percent of the established stems,
established at a density of at least 260 planted trees per acre at the end of Year 5. Native volunteer species
may be included to meet the performance standards as determined by NC Division of Water Resources
(DWR).
A visual assessment of the conservation easement will also be performed each year to confirm:
• Fencing is in good condition throughout the site (if applicable);
• No livestock access within the conservation easement area;
• No encroachment has occurred;
• No invasive species in areas were invasive species were treated,
• Diffuse flow is being maintained in the conservation easement areas; and
• There has not been any cutting, clearing, filling, grading, or similar activities that would
negatively affect the functioning of the buffer.

Vegetation Annual
Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted plant
vegetation
community. Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include
monitoring
supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. Exotic invasive plant species
shall be treated by mechanical and/or chemical methods. Any vegetation requiring
herbicide application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of
Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations. Vegetation maintenance activities will be
documented and reported in annual monitoring reports. Vegetation maintenance will
continue through the monitoring period.
Invasive and Nuisance Visual
Invasive and noxious species will be monitored and treated so that none become

identifying the property as a mitigation project and will include the name of the long-
term steward and a contact number. Boundaries may be identified by fence, marker,
bollard, post, tree -blazing, or other means as allowed by Project conditions and/or
conservation easement. Boundary markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be
repaired and/or replaced on an as -needed basis. Easement monitoring and staking/
signage maintenance will continue in perpetuity as a stewardship activity.
Road Crossing Visual
Road crossings within the Project may be maintained only as allowed by conservation

easement or existing easement, deed restrictions, rights of way, or corridor agreements.
Crossings in easement breaks are the responsibility of the landowner to maintain.
Livestock Fencing (if Visual
Livestock fencing is to be placed outside the easement limits. Maintenance of fencing
applicable) Assessment
is the responsibility of the landowner.
4.2 Adaptive Management Plan and Site Maintenance
Adaptive measures will be developed, or appropriate remedial actions taken if in the event that the project,
or a specific component of the project, fails to achieve the defined success criteria. DMS must approve all
adaptive management plans prior to submittal to DWR.
Remedial actions will be designed to achieve the success criteria specified in this Mitigation Plan, and will
include identification of the causes of failure, remedial design approach, work schedule, and monitoring
criteria that will take into account physical and climatic conditions.
Initial plant maintenance may include a one-time mowing, prior to initial planting to remove undesirable
species. If mowing is deemed necessary by RES during the monitoring period, RES must first receive
approval by DMS and then by DWR prior to any mowing activities to ensure that no buffer violations
have been performed. Failure to receive approval to mow within the Randleman Lake buffer, as defined
in 15A NCAC 02B .0250, by DWR could result in Randleman Lake buffer violations and violations of
the conservation easement. If necessary, RES will develop a species-specific control plan.

5 STEWARDSHIP
The Project will be transferred to the NCDEQ Stewardship Program. NCDEQ Stewardship Program shall
serve as the conservation easement holder and entity responsible for long term stewardship of the Project.
This parry shall serve as conservation easement holder and long-term steward for the property and will
conduct periodic inspection of the Project to ensure that restrictions required in the conservation easement
are upheld. The NCDEQ Stewardship Program is developing an endowment system within the no
reverting, interest-bearing Conservation Lands Conservation Fund Account. The use of funds from the
Endowment Account will be governed by North Carolina General Statute GS 113A -232(d)(3). Interest
gained by the endowment fund may be used for the purpose of stewardship, monitoring, stewardship
administration, and land transaction costs, if applicable.
The Stewardship Program will periodically install signage as needed to identify boundary markings as
needed. Any livestock or associated fencing or permanent crossings will be the responsibility of the owner
of the underlying fee to maintain.

Subject: On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Randleman Lake Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0250)
Subject Property: Bohemian Mitigation Site, 2646 Banner Whitehead Rd, Sophia NC, Randolph County
Dear Mr. Breslow:
On June 12, 2018, at your request, Sue Homewood conducted an on-site determination to review features
located on the subject project for stream determinations with regards to the above noted state
regulations. Katie Merritt with the Division of Water Resources (Division) — 401 & Buffer Permitting
Branch was also present during the site visit.
The attached sketch depicts the channels that were reviewed during the site visit. Channels SQ1 and
SQ@, shown on the attached sketch were determined to be perennial channels and subject to the
Randleman Buffer Rules cited above. However, a portion of channel SQ2 was identified in the field
where a channel does not exist and therefore would not be subject to the Randleman Buffer Rules. This
portion is shown on the attached sketch as the "Channel Terminus" and continues through the
downstream side of the utility corridor where a channel forms again. A side channel to SQ1 was
determined to be intermittent at a point identified on the attached sketch. This portion of channel is
subject to the Randleman Buffer Rules however the ephemeral channel above this location (start point
identified) is not subject to the Randleman Buffer Rules. Channel SQ3 was determined to be
intermittent at a point identified on the attached sketch. This portion of channel is subject to the
Randleman Buffer Rules however the ephemeral channel above this location (to the top of the project
area) is not subject to the Randleman Buffer Rules. These regulations are subject to change in the
future.

Dear Mr. Breslow:
On June 12, 2018, at your request, Sue Homewood conducted an on-site determination to review features
located on the subject project for stream determinations with regards to the above noted state
regulations. Katie Merritt with the Division of Water Resources (Division) — 401 & Buffer Permitting
Branch was also present during the site visit.
The attached sketch depicts the channels that were reviewed during the site visit. Channels MA3, and a
small tributary at the top of MA3, MA4 and MA5 as shown on the attached sketch were determined to
be intermittent channels at the start points identified on the sketch. Channel MAI was determined to
be a perennial stream throughout the project area. These channels are subject to the Randleman
Buffer Rules cited above. Channel MA2 was determined to not be a stream channel and therefore it,
and Pond 1, are not subject to the Randleman Buffer Rules cited above. Pond 2 was directly connected
to a subject stream channel immediately below the pond and therefore Pond 2 is subject to the
Randleman Buffer Rules cited above. These regulations are subject to change in the future.
The owner (or future owners) should notify the Division (and other relevant agencies) of this decision in
any future correspondences concerning this property. This on-site determination shall expire five (5)
years from the date of this letter.

This letter does not constitute an approval of this site to generate mitigation credits. Pursuant
to 15A NCAC 02B.0295, a mitigation plan shall be submitted to DWR for written approval
prior to conducting any mitigation activities in riparian areas and/or surface waters for buffer
mitigation credit. Where riparian areas adjacent to ponds are proposed for buffer mitigation
credit, the entire pond must be protected with a permanent conservation easement to be viable
to generate buffer mitigation credits. Otherwise, additional measures as determined by DWR
will be required to be viable to generate mitigation credits.
All vegetative plantings, performance criteria and other mitigation requirements for riparian
restoration, enhancement and preservation must follow the requirements in 15A NCAC
02B.0295 to be eligible for riparian buffer mitigation credits.
This viability assessment will expire on August 8, 2020 or upon the submittal of an As -Built
Report to the DWR, whichever comes first. This letter should be provided in all stream,
wetland or buffer mitigation plans for this Site.

III. GRANTEE RESERVED USES
A. Right of Access, Construction, and Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents,
successors and assigns, receive a perpetual Right of Access to the Conservation Easement Area
over the Property at reasonable times to undertake any activities on the property to restore,
construct, manage, maintain, enhance, protect, and monitor the stream, wetland and any other
riparian resources in the Conservation Easement Area, in accordance with restoration activities
or a long-term management plan. Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Conservation
Easement, the rights granted herein do not include or establish for the public any access rights.
B. Restoration Activities. These activities include planting of trees, shrubs and herbaceous
vegetation, installation of monitoring wells, utilization of heavy equipment to grade, fill, and
prepare the soil, modification of the hydrology of the site, and installation of natural and
manmade materials as needed to direct in -stream, above ground, and subterraneous water flow.
C. Signs. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors or assigns, shall be permitted
to place signs and witness posts on the Property to include any or all of the following: describe
the project, prohibited activities within the Conservation Easement, or identify the project
boundaries and the holder of the Conservation Easement.
D. Fences. Conservation Easements are purchased to protect the investments by the State
(Grantee) in natural resources. Livestock within conservations easements damages the
investment and can result in reductions in natural resource value and mitigation credits which
would cause financial harm to the State. Therefore, Landowners (Grantor) with livestock are
required to restrict livestock access to the Conservation Easement area. Repeated failure to do so
may result in the State (Grantee) repairing or installing livestock exclusion devices (fences)
within the conservation area for the purpose of restricting livestock access. In such cases, the
landowner (Grantor) must provide access to the State (Grantee) to make repairs.
E. Crossing Area(s). The Grantee is not responsible for maintenance of crossing area(s),
however, the Grantee, its employees and agents, successors or assigns, reserve the right to repair
crossing area(s), at its sole discretion and to recover the cost of such repairs from the Grantor if
such repairs are needed as a result of activities of the Grantor, his successors or assigns.
IV. ENFORCEMENT AND REMEDIES
A. Enforcement. To accomplish the purposes of this Conservation Easement, Grantee is
allowed to prevent any activity within the Conservation Easement Area that is inconsistent with
the purposes of this Conservation Easement and to require the restoration of such areas or
features in the Conservation Easement Area that may have been damaged by such unauthorized
activity or use. Upon any breach of the terms of this Conservation Easement by Grantor, the
Grantee shall, except as provided below, notify the Grantor in writing of such breach and the
Grantor shall have ninety (90) days after receipt of such notice to correct the damage caused by
such breach. If the breach and damage remains uncured after ninety (90) days, the Grantee may
enforce this Conservation Easement by bringing appropriate legal proceedings including an
action to recover damages, as well as injunctive and other relief. The Grantee shall also have the
NCDMS Full Delivery Conservation Easement Template adopted 5 May 2017
Page 6of11

power and authority, consistent with its statutory authority: (a) to prevent any impairment of the
Conservation Easement Area by acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Conservation
Easement; (b) to otherwise preserve or protect its interest in the Property; or (c) to seek damages
from any appropriate person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee reserves the
immediate right, without notice, to obtain a temporary restraining order, injunctive or other
appropriate relief, if the breach is or would irreversibly or otherwise materially impair the
benefits to be derived from this Conservation Easement, and the Grantor and Grantee
acknowledge that the damage would be irreparable and remedies at law inadequate. The rights
and remedies of the Grantee provided hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all
other rights and remedies available to Grantee in connection with this Conservation Easement.
B. Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors and assigns, have the
right, with reasonable notice, to enter the Conservation Easement Area over the Property at
reasonable times for the purpose of inspection to determine whether the Grantor is complying
with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Conservation Easement.
C. Acts Beyond Grantor's Control. Nothing contained in this Conservation Easement
shall be construed to entitle Grantee to bring any action against Grantor for any injury or change
in the Conservation Easement Area caused by third parties, resulting from causes beyond the
Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, storm, and earth movement, or from
any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under emergency conditions to prevent,
abate, or mitigate significant injury to life or damage to the Property resulting from such causes.
D. Costs of Enforcement. Beyond regular and typical monitoring expenses, any costs
incurred by Grantee in enforcing the terms of this Conservation Easement against Grantor,
including, without limitation, any costs of restoration necessitated by Grantor's acts or omissions
in violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement, shall be borne by Grantor.
E. No Waiver. Enforcement of this Easement shall be at the discretion of the Grantee and
any forbearance, delay or omission by Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the event of any
breach of any term set forth herein shall not be construed to be a waiver by Grantee.
V. NHSCELLANEOUS
A. This instrument sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the
Conservation Easement and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings or
agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the
remainder of the provisions of the Conservation Easement, and the application of such provision
to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is found to be invalid, shall not be
affected thereby.
B. Grantor is responsible for any real estate taxes, assessments, fees, or charges levied upon
the Property. Grantee shall not be responsible for any costs or liability of any kind related to the
ownership, operation, insurance, upkeep, or maintenance of the Property, except as expressly
provided herein. Upkeep of any constructed bridges, fences, or other amenities on the Property
are the sole responsibility of the Grantor. Nothing herein shall relieve the Grantor of the
NCDMS Full Delivery Conservation Easement Template adopted 5 May 2017
Page 7ofII

obligation to comply with federal, state or local laws, regulations and permits that may apply to
the exercise of the Reserved Rights.
C. Any notices shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested to the
parties at their addresses shown herein or to other addresses as either party establishes in writing
upon notification to the other.
D. Grantor shall notify Grantee in writing of the name and address and any party to whom
the Property or any part thereof is to be transferred at or prior to the time said transfer is made.
Grantor further agrees that any subsequent lease, deed, or other legal instrument by which any
interest in the Property is conveyed is subject to the Conservation Easement herein created.
E. The Grantor and Grantee agree that the terms of this Conservation Easement shall survive
any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
F. This Conservation Easement and Right of Access may be amended, but only in writing
signed by all parties hereto, or their successors or assigns, if such amendment does not affect the
qualification of this Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable
laws, and is consistent with the purposes of the Conservation Easement. The owner of the
Property shall notify the State Property Office and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in writing
sixty (60) days prior to the initiation of any transfer of all or any part of the Property or of any
request to void or modify this Conservation Easement. Such notifications and modification
requests shall be addressed to:

approximately 3,000 feet downstream of the Project. The goal of the Project is to restore, enhance and preserve ecological function to
the existing stream and riparian buffer by establishing appropriate plant communities while minimizing temporal and land disturbing
impacts. Buffer improvements and the removal of livestock will aid in filtering runoff from agricultural fields, thereby reducing nutrient and
sediment loads to Project channels and the overall watershed.

Categorical Exclusion Summary
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly
known as Superfund, created a tax on the chemical and petroleum industries to clean up abandoned or
uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.
As a part of the ERTR and CERCLA compliance, an EDR Radius Map Report with Geocheck was ordered
for the Bohemian Mitigation Site through Environmental Data Resources, Inc (EDR) on June 12th, 2019.
According to the EDR report, there were no listed sites located within 1 mile of the project site. In addition
to the EDR search, a visual inspection of the Bohemian site was conducted to assess the potential for the
occurrence of recognized environmental conditions on the property that might not have been revealed in
the EDR report. The inspection was conducted to locate and identify any obvious use, storage, or generation
of hazardous materials. No hazardous storage containers or substances were observed.
Overall, the EDR assessment revealed no evidence of "recognized environmental conditions" in connection
with the target property. The summary of the EDR report is enclosed.
National Historical Preservation Act (Section 106)
The National Historical Preservation Act (NHPA) is legislation intended to preserve historical and
archaeological sites in the United States of America. RES requested review and comment from the State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) with respect to any archaeological and architectural resources related
to the Bohemian Mitigation Site on June 5t'', 2019. SHPO responded on June 21St, 2019 and had no
objections to the Bohemian Project. The correspondence with SHPO can be found in the enclosed
documents.
Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act)
The Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act) provides
important protections and assistance for those people affected by federally funded projects. The Uniform
Act applies to the acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition of real property for federally funded projects.
The Bohemian Mitigation Site is a full -delivery project that includes land acquisition. Notification of fair
market value of the property and the lack of condemnation authority was completed by RES. The landowner
was notified of fair market value and condemnation authority was listed in the option agreement.
Endangered Species Act (ESA)
Section 7 of the ESA requires federal agencies, in consultation with and with the assistance of the Secretary
of the Interior or of Commerce, as appropriate, to ensure that actions they authorize, fund or carry out are
not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of threatened or endangered species or result in the
destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat for these species.
Randolph County's list of threatened and endangered species includes Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus
schweinitzii) and the Small Whorled Pogonia (Isotria medeoloides). The Bohemian Mitigation Site does
not contain any habitat for Small Whorled Pogonia. Upon completion of a survey for Schweinitz's
sunflower conducted on August 20, 2019, no species were present and therefore a "no effect"
determination was made. An updated letter with the results of the survey was provided to the USFWS on
August 29, 2019. A copy of this letter is enclosed.

The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA)
The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA) is a federal status that protects two species of Eagle.
The BGPA provides protection for the bald eagle and golden eagle by prohibiting the take, possession, sale,
purchase, barter, offer to sell, purchase or barter, transport, export or import, of any bald or golden eagle,
alive or dead, including any part, nest, or egg, unless allowed by permit (16 U.S.C. 668(a) (BGPA, 1940).
The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), has been identified in Randolph county; buffer mitigation
practices will have a "No Effect" result on the Bald Eagle.
Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA)
The Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA) is intended to minimize the impact federal programs have on
the unnecessary and irreversible conversion of farmland to nonagricultural uses. The Bohemian Mitigation
Site includes the conversion of prime farmland. As such, Form AD -1006 has been completed and submitted
to the Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS). The completed form and correspondence
documenting the submittal is enclosed.
Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA)
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) of the United States was enacted to protect fish and
wildlife when federal actions result in the control or modification of a natural stream or body of water.
Since the Bohemian Mitigation Site may include removal and/or replacement of existing culverts as well
as stream bank stabilization, RES requested comment from the North Carolina Fish and Wildlife Resource
Commission (NCWRC). The NCWRC responded on June 10', 2019 and stated there are no records for any
listed aquatic species in the vicinity of the project. However, the state special concern Greensboro
burrowing crayfish (Cambarus catagius) has been documented in the Randolph and Guilford county area.
Therefore, RES will notify NCWRC if the Greensboro catfish is identified within the project area. All
correspondence is enclosed.
Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA)
The MBTA makes it unlawful for anyone to kill, capture, collect, possess, buy, sell, trade, ship import, or
extort and migratory bird. The indirect killing of birds by destroying their nests and eggs is covered by the
MBTA, so construction in nesting areas during nesting seasons can constitute at taking.
RES consulted the USFWS's Information for Planning and Consultation (IPAC) tool on June 5t'`, 2019 to
generate a list of migratory birds that are expected to occur at the Bohemian site. The results concluded that
no migratory birds of conservation concern occur at the Site.

STEPS IN THE PROCESSING THE FARMLAND AND CONVERSION IMPACT RATING FORM
Step 1 - Federal agencies (or Federally funded projects) involved in proposed projects that may convert farmland, as defined in the Farmland Protection Policy Act (FPPA)
to nonagricultural uses, will initially complete Parts I and III of the form. For Corridor type projects, the Federal agency shall use form NRCS-CPA-106 in place
of form AD -1006. The Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) process may also be accessed by visiting the FPPA website, hitp://fppa.nres.usda.gov/less/.
Step 2 - Originator (Federal Agency) will send one original copy of the form together with appropriate scaled maps indicating location(s)of project site(s), to the Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) local Field Office or USDA Service Center and retain a copy for their files. (NRCS has offices in most counties in the
U.S. The USDA Office Information Locator may be found at htty:Hoffices.usda.gov/scripts/ndISAPI.dll/oip public/USA map, or the offices can usually be
found in the Phone Book under U.S. Government, Department of Agriculture. A list of field offices is available from the NRCS State Conservationist and State
Office in each State.)
Step 3 - NRCS will, within 10 working days after receipt of the completed form, make a determination as to whether the site(s) of the proposed project contains prime,
unique, statewide or local important farmland. (When a site visit or land evaluation system design is needed, NRCS will respond within 30 working days.
Step 4 - For sites where farmland covered by the FPPA will be converted by the proposed project, NRCS will complete Parts II, IV and V of the form.
Step 5 - NRCS will return the original copy of the form to the Federal agency involved in the project, and retain a file copy for NRCS records.
Step 6 - The Federal agency involved in the proposed project will complete Parts VI and VII of the form and return the form with the final selected site to the servicing
NRCS office.
Step 7 - The Federal agency providing financial or technical assistance to the proposed project will make a determination as to whether the proposed conversion is consistent
with the FPPA.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE FARMLAND CONVERSION IMPACT RATING FORM
(For Federal Agency)
Part I: When completing the "County and State" questions, list all the local governments that are responsible for local land
use controls where site(s) are to be evaluated.
Part III: When completing item B (Total Acres To Be Converted Indirectly), include the following
1. Acres not being directly converted but that would no longer be capable of being farmed after the conversion, because the
conversion would restrict access to them or other major change in the ability to use the land for agriculture.
2. Acres planned to receive services from an infrastructure project as indicated in the project justification (e.g. highways,
utilities planned build out capacity) that will cause a direct conversion.
Part VI: Do not complete Part VI using the standard format if a State or Local site assessment is used. With local and NRCS
assistance, use the local Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA).
1. Assign the maximum points for each site assessment criterion as shown in § 658.5(b) of CFR. In cases of corridor -type
project such as transportation, power line and flood control, criteria #5 and #6 will not apply and will, be weighted zero,
however, criterion #8 will be weighed a maximum of 25 points and criterion #11 a maximum of 25 points.
2. Federal agencies may assign relative weights among the 12 site assessment criteria other than those shown on the
FPPA rule after submitting individual agency FPPA policy for review and comment to NRCS. In all cases where other
weights are assigned, relative adjustments must be made to maintain the maximum total points at 160. For project sites
where the total points equal or exceed 160, consider alternative actions, as appropriate, that could reduce adverse
impacts (e.g. Alternative Sites, Modifications or Mitigation).
Part VII: In computing the "Total Site Assessment Points" where a State or local site assessment is used and the total
maximum number of points is other than 160, convert the site assessment points to a base of 160.
Example: if the Site Assessment maximum is 200 points, and the alternative Site "A" is rated 180 points:
Total points assigned Site A 180 X 160 = 144 points for Site A
Maximum points possible = 200
For assistance in completing this form or FPPA process, contact the local NRCS Field Office or USDA Service Center.
NRCS employees, consult the FPPA Manual and/or policy for additional instructions to complete the AD -1006 form.

Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) local Field Office or USDA Service Center and retain a copy for their files. (NRCS has offices in most counties in the
U.S. The USDA Office Information Locator may be found at htty:Hoffices.usda.gov/scripts/ndISAPI.dll/oip public/USA map, or the offices can usually be
found in the Phone Book under U.S. Government, Department of Agriculture. A list of field offices is available from the NRCS State Conservationist and State
Office in each State.)
Step 3 - NRCS will, within 10 working days after receipt of the completed form, make a determination as to whether the site(s) of the proposed project contains prime,
unique, statewide or local important farmland. (When a site visit or land evaluation system design is needed, NRCS will respond within 30 working days.
Step 4 - For sites where farmland covered by the FPPA will be converted by the proposed project, NRCS will complete Parts II, IV and V of the form.
Step 5 - NRCS will return the original copy of the form to the Federal agency involved in the project, and retain a file copy for NRCS records.
Step 6 - The Federal agency involved in the proposed project will complete Parts VI and VII of the form and return the form with the final selected site to the servicing
NRCS office.
Step 7 - The Federal agency providing financial or technical assistance to the proposed project will make a determination as to whether the proposed conversion is consistent
with the FPPA.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE FARMLAND CONVERSION IMPACT RATING FORM
(For Federal Agency)
Part I: When completing the "County and State" questions, list all the local governments that are responsible for local land
use controls where site(s) are to be evaluated.
Part III: When completing item B (Total Acres To Be Converted Indirectly), include the following
1. Acres not being directly converted but that would no longer be capable of being farmed after the conversion, because the
conversion would restrict access to them or other major change in the ability to use the land for agriculture.
2. Acres planned to receive services from an infrastructure project as indicated in the project justification (e.g. highways,
utilities planned build out capacity) that will cause a direct conversion.
Part VI: Do not complete Part VI using the standard format if a State or Local site assessment is used. With local and NRCS
assistance, use the local Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA).
1. Assign the maximum points for each site assessment criterion as shown in § 658.5(b) of CFR. In cases of corridor -type
project such as transportation, power line and flood control, criteria #5 and #6 will not apply and will, be weighted zero,
however, criterion #8 will be weighed a maximum of 25 points and criterion #11 a maximum of 25 points.
2. Federal agencies may assign relative weights among the 12 site assessment criteria other than those shown on the
FPPA rule after submitting individual agency FPPA policy for review and comment to NRCS. In all cases where other
weights are assigned, relative adjustments must be made to maintain the maximum total points at 160. For project sites
where the total points equal or exceed 160, consider alternative actions, as appropriate, that could reduce adverse
impacts (e.g. Alternative Sites, Modifications or Mitigation).
Part VII: In computing the "Total Site Assessment Points" where a State or local site assessment is used and the total
maximum number of points is other than 160, convert the site assessment points to a base of 160.
Example: if the Site Assessment maximum is 200 points, and the alternative Site "A" is rated 180 points:
Total points assigned Site A 180 X 160 = 144 points for Site A
Maximum points possible = 200
For assistance in completing this form or FPPA process, contact the local NRCS Field Office or USDA Service Center.
NRCS employees, consult the FPPA Manual and/or policy for additional instructions to complete the AD -1006 form.

Subject: Project Scoping for Bohemian Buffer Mitigation Site in Guilford and Randolph County
Dear Mr. Stancil,
The purpose of this letter is to request review and comment on any possible issues that might emerge with
respect to fish and wildlife associated with a potential buffer restoration project on the attached site (Site
maps with approximate property lines and areas of potential buffer restoration activities are enclosed). The
Bohemian Site (35.545045N, 79.5317W) has been identified by Resource Environmental Solutions, LLC
(RES) to provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable buffer impacts. The proposed project involves
the restoration and enhancement of approximately 22.71 acres of riparian buffers. Current buffer conditions
along the streams associated with this project demonstrate significant habitat degradation as a result of
impacts from agricultural land use, water diversion, and cattle intrusion.
We thank you in advance for your timely response and cooperation. You may return the comment to my
attention at the address below. Please feel free to contact me at [e-mail] with any questions that
you may have concerning the extent of site disturbance associated with this project.
Sincerely,
Matt DeAngelo I Ecologist

Subject: AD -1006 Request for the Bohemian Mitigation Site in Guilford and Randolph County
Dear Mr. Cortes,
Resource Environmental Solutions (RES) requests review and comment from the Natural
Resources Conservation Service on any possible concerns that may emerge with respect to
farmland resources including prime, unique, statewide or local important farmland associated with
the Bohemian Buffer Mitigation Project. This project is being developed for the North Carolina
Division of Mitigation Services. Please note that this request is in support of the development of the
Categorical Exclusion (CE).
The Bohemian Site has been identified for the purposes of providing mitigation for unavoidable
buffer impacts in the Cape Fear River Basin. RES has been awarded the contract to design and
implement the Bohemian project. A requirement of the project is to prepare a CE that describes
resources present on the project site.
The Project is located in the Randleman watershed (Cataloging Unit 03030003, 14 -digit
HUC 03030003010060), a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW). The Project supports many of the Cape
Fear River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP) goals and presents an opportunity to restore 22.71
acres of riparian buffers. The Project will provide numerous ecological and water quality benefits within
the Cape Fear River Basin. These benefits are not limited to the project area, but have more far-reaching
effects throughout the Cape Fear River Basin. The Project will provide improvements to water quality,
hydrologic function, and habitat. Coordinates for the site are as follows: 35.545045N, -79.5317W
An inventory of soils data was completed by RES utilizing Web Soil Survey to determine prime farmland
classifications for the 22.71 acre project area. One soil map unit in the project area is classified as prime
farmland, making up approximately 2.3% of the site (Wilkes-Poindexter-Wynott complex,15-20%
slopes). Five soil map units in the project area are classified as farmland of statewide importance, making
up 97.7% of the site (Enon fine sandy loam, 2-6% slopes, 0.5%; Enon fine sandy loam, 10-15%
slopes, 29.4%; Wynott-Enon complex, 2-8% slopes, 3.5%; Wynott-Enon complex, 8-15%
slopes,63.9%; Wynott-Enon complex, 2-8% slopes, moderately eroded, 0.5%).
Enclosed is Form AD -1006 with Parts I and III Completed and maps of the Bohemian Site. We ask that
you review the site information and complete Parts II, IV, and V as required by NRCS. Please
email (mengel�res.us), or mail your reply to the office at 302 Jeffferson Street, Suite 100, Raleigh, NC
27605.

MAP INFORMATION
The soil surveys that comprise your AOI were mapped at scales
ranging from 1:20,000 to 1:24,000.
Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil
line placement. The maps do not show the small areas of
contrasting soils that could have been shown at a more detailed
scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements.

Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more
accurate calculations of distance or area are required.

The soil surveys that comprise your AOI were mapped at scales
ranging from 1:20,000 to 1:24,000.
Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil
line placement. The maps do not show the small areas of
contrasting soils that could have been shown at a more detailed
scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements.

Subject: Request for Project Scoping
Bohemian Buffer Mitigation Site
Guilford and Randolph County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Carrere,
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC) received your letter on 05
June 2019 requesting review and comment on any possible concerns regarding the Bohemian Buffer
Mitigation Site. Biologists with NCWRC have reviewed the provided documents. Comments are
provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as
amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667e) and North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 et seq.).
The Bohemian Buffer Mitigation Site is located north of Harlow Road and east of Muddy Creek Road
south of High Point, Randolph and Guilford counties, North Carolina. The project involves the
restoration and enhancement of approximately 22.71 acres of riparian buffer. Current conditions of the
site show significant degradation of the habitat from agricultural land use, water diversion, and cattle
intrusions. The project will restore the riparian buffer along unnamed tributaries to the Deep River
(Randleman Reservoir) in the Cape Fear River basin. The Deep River is classified as a Water Supply IV
and Critical Water Supply Area by the N.C. Division of Water Resources (NCDWR).
We have no known records for federal or state -listed rare, threatened, or endangered species within or
near the site. However, the state special concern Greensboro burrowing crayfish (Cambarus catagius)
has been documented in Randolph and Guilford counties. The Greensboro burrowing crayfish has been
found in all types of soils from sandy loams to hard clay and burrows are not usually directly associated
with any drainage or stream flow (McGrath 1994). The full extent of its distribution in this watershed is
unknown due to lack of targeted surveys. Please notify Brena Jones, Central Aquatic Wildlife Diversity
Coordinator ([e-mail], 919-707-0369), if any Greensboro burrowing crayfish are
located. Therefore, the lack of records from the site does not imply or confirm the absence of federal or
state -listed species. An on-site survey is the only means to determine if the proposed project may impact
federal or state rare, threatened, or endangered species.

Based upon the information provided to NCWRC, it is unlikely that buffer mitigation will adversely
affect any federal or state -listed species. Establishing native, forested buffers in riparian areas will help
protect water quality, improve aquatic and terrestrial habitats, and provide a travel corridor for wildlife
species. If present, we recommend leaving snags and mature trees or if necessary, remove tees outside
the maternity roosting season for bats (May 15 — August 15).
Provided measures are taken to minimize erosion and sedimentation from construction/restoration
activities, we do not anticipate the project to result in significant adverse impacts to aquatic and terrestrial
wildlife resources.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments. If I can be of additional assistance, please call (919)

Subject: List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project
location, and/or may be affected by your proposed project
To Whom It May Concern:
The species list generated pursuant to the information you provided identifies threatened,
endangered, proposed and candidate species, as well as proposed and final designated critical
habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your proposed project and/or may be affected by
your proposed project. The 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
(16U.S.C. 1531 etseq.).
New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of
species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to
contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to
federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical
habitat. Please note that 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. This verification can be
completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be
completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and
implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested
through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed list.
Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non-federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally -listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally -protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or

05/29/2019 Event Code: 04EN2000-2019-E-02175
evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes
If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys.
If you determine that the proposed action may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect) a federally -protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect (i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.
Please be aware that bald and golden eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668 et seq.), and projects affecting these species may require
development of an eagle conservation plan (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/
eagle_guidance.html). Additionally, wind energy projects should follow the wind energy
guidelines (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/) for minimizing impacts to migratory birds and
bats.
Guidance for minimizing impacts to migratory birds for projects including communications
towers (e.g., cellular, digital television, radio, and emergency broadcast) can be found at: http://
www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdlssues/Hazards/towers/towers.htm; http://

Not all Threatened and Endangered Species that occur in North Carolina are subject to section 7
consultation with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service. Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon, sea
turtles,when in the water, and certain marine mammals are under purview of the National Marine
Fisheries Service. If your project occurs in marine, estuarine, or coastal river systems you should
also contact the National Marine Fisheries Service, http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/
We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages
Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project
planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Tracking Number in

RE: Helianthus schweinitzii Survey at Bohemian site, Randolph County, NC
A plant survey for the federally listed Schweinitz's sunflower, Helianthus schweinitzii (Fed E,
State E I S2 G3), was conducted on August 20, 2019 at our Bohemian Riparian Buffer Mitigation
Project, a full -delivery mitigation project for the Division of Mitigation Services (DMS), located near
Archdale, NC in Randolph County. H. schweinitzii is endemic to the Piedmont regions of North and
South Carolina, historically being centered around Charlotte, NC and Rock Hill, SC. Suitable habitat
for H. schweinitzii includes disturbed areas with full -partial sun exposure such as roadsides and
powerline cuts; historically, it has occurred in dry, open woodlands and Piedmont prairies. In North
Carolina, the known distributions of H. schweinitzii occur in Surry, Stokes, Catawba, Gaston, Rowan,
Davidson, Randolph, Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Stanly, Montgomery, Union, Anson, and Richmond
counties. This species faces threats including alteration of native habitat, fire suppression,
roadside/utility right-of-way maintenance, invasive species encroachment and other anthropogenic
impacts. The Bohemian Project contains two sections of easements, an east section and a west section,
both including a powerline cut through a portion of the easement. Current land use in the vicinity of
the Bohemian Project is primarily non -forested agricultural fields, non -forested and forested pasture
grazed by livestock, mature forest with recent timbering, and disturbed mature riparian forest. Existing
tree species within the forested areas include American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), American
elm (Ulmus americana), sweetgum (Liquidambar styrac flua), and red cedar (Juniperus virginiana).
The non -forested areas consist primarily of pasture grasses and weedy herbaceous vegetation including
Juncus sp., Carex sp., Vernonia sp., and Helianthus tuberosus.
The survey team including Jeremy Schmid and Emily Ulman, visited a reference population
for H. schweinitzii on August 20, 2019 at the North Carolina Botanical Gardens in Chapel Hill, NC.
The surveying team had a dichotomous key for the genus Helianthus, adapted from Schilling (2006)
and Weakley (2008), and had researched the information and pictures provided by the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service for H. schweinitzii. Jeremy and Emily have both performed rare plant surveys in the
past for threatened and endangered plant species throughout North Carolina.
At the Bohemian site, the surveying team walked along the boundary and within the easement
recording species present and any occurrences of potential suitable habitat. The western section is
primarily used for agriculture (hemp) and is surrounded by mature forest to the west; these conditions
do not support H. schweinitzii mainly due to lack of sun exposure. The one area of suitable habitat
within the western side (powerline cut) did not have Schweinitz's sunflower, but rather Jerusalem
artichoke, differentiated by the leaf position on the stem and length of petiole. The eastern section of
the Project represented suitable habitat, with open forest margins and a powerline cut; however, there
was no H. schweinitzii found. After a thorough examination of both areas and an assessment of the
habitat present, no populations were located at this project site.
In conclusion, after conducting a more thorough evaluation of the habitat present at the
Bohemian Mitigation Site and surveying for H. schweinitzii specifically, we have determined that there
is suitable habitat present, but no species present therefore, the conclusion for the H. schweinitzii
species is no effect.
