Impact Justification and Mitigation
1.
Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The stream and wetland impacts are the minimum necessary to construct the industrial building. The proposed plan minimizes wetland impacts to
0.090 acres, while avoiding 0.834 wetland acres on the property. The plan minimizes permanent stream impacts to 130 linear feet by utilizing an
existing culvert road crossing, and installing an additional culvert crossing, necessary for operations and traffic flow of the industrial facility.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Sediment and erosion control measures will be utilized on site to avoid/minimize impacts during construction. The site will be restored to original grade
upon completion of sewer and water line installation. Proposed utility and culvert install impact work is to be completed in the dry (Figure 6.6 and 6.8).

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.
G. ALL REQUESTS

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option
to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an
informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their
characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a
Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre -
construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or
other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the
activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has
elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an
official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the
option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit
authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result
in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) the
applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms
and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can
accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has
determined to be necessary; (5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject
permit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance
of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit
authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the
review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and
waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance
or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7)
whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. 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:

Jurisdictional wetlands and waters identified on this map have been
located within sub -meter accuracy utilizing a Trimble mapping grade
Global Positioning System (GPS) and the subsequent differential
correction of that data. GPS points may demonstrate uncorrectable
errors due to topography, vegetative cover, and/or multipath signal
error.
Note: The illustrated wetland and stream locations are approximate.
These areas have been flagged in the field; however, they have not
been surveyed. Although Clearwater Environmental Consultants,
Inc. (CEC) is confident in our assessment, the US Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps) is the only agency that can make final decisions
regarding jurisdictional wetland and waters of the US delineations.
Therefore, all preliminary determinations are subject to change until
written verification is obtained. CEC strongly recommends that
written verification be obtained from the Corps prior to closing on the
property, beginning any site work, or making any legal reliance on
this determination.
This map was prepared by CEC using the best information available
to CEC at the time of production. This map is for informational
purposes only and should not be used to determine precise
boundaries, roadways, property boundary lines, nor legal
descriptions. This map shall not be construed to be an official
survey of any data depicted.

**Historic record status.
Clearwater Environmental Consultants (CEC) visited the Rivercane Property on Mills Gap
Road on 1/16/19 and 10/4/19. Due to the associated proposed impacts, CEC specifically
reviewed wetlands W 1, W2, W3, W4 and W6 for the presence of federally listed threatened
or endangered species and their habitat. During the time of the site visits, no federally
listed threatened or endangered species nor their habitat were identified. The site was
previously part of an industrial complex that has seen various levels of disturbance in the
past including, but not limited to clearing, grading, ditching and modifications to the
natural hydrology of the site. The upland portions of the site are currently under
construction.
The current hydrology for the proposed impact areas appears to be of a seasonal nature and
primarily sourced from precipitation and surface water runoff. During the October site
visit the proposed impact areas had no visible surface water or saturation. Dominant tree
species observed in the wetlands include black willow (Salix nigra), red maple (Acer
rubrum), and box elder (Acer negundo). Shrub species observed include Chinese privet
(Ligustrum sinense), box elder, red maple, and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica).
Species in the herbaceous stratum included smart weed (Polygonum sp.), common rush
(Juncus effusus) and multiple sedges (carex sp.). CEC consulted the FWS's "Northern
Long -Eared Bat Consultation Areas" map for Henderson County and the Natural Heritage
Program GIS data. It is the opinion of CEC, that none of the species listed above exist
within the proposed impact area.

RE. Mills Gap Road Project, 1007
Dear ClearWater Environmental Consultants, Inc.:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural
communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project
boundary. These results are presented in the attached `Documented Occurrences' tables and map.
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 suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.
If a Federally -listed species is documented within the project area or indicated within a one -mile
radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
https://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.
Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional
correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water
Management Trust Fund easement, or an occurrence of a Federally -listed species is documented
near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney.butlerLncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
