This mitigation acceptance letter replaces the mitigation acceptance letter issued on September 10, 2019. The
impacts and associated mitigation needs were under projected by the NCDOT in the 2019 impact data. DMS will commit to
implement sufficient compensatory wetland mitigation credits to offset the impacts associated with this project as determined
by the regulatory agencies using the delivery timeline listed in Section F.3.c.iii of the In -Lieu Fee Instrument dated July 28,
2010. If the above referenced impact amounts are revised, then this mitigation acceptance letter will no longer be valid and a
new mitigation acceptance letter will be required from DMS.

Sincerely,
James B. Stanfill
