Subject: Approved Jurisdictional Determination Request and Pre -Construction
Notification for NWPs 29 & 39 for the Cannon Run site, Concord, Cabarrus County, NC.
Mses. Janiczak and Higgins, and Messrs. Johnson, and Hamstead,
Enclosed is a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination request and Pre -Construction Notification
for Nationwide Permits # 29 & 39 for the approximate 128.5 -acre site known as the Cannon Run
site located northwest of the intersection of Harris Rd and Odell School Rd in Concord, NC. The
current project area is a proposed mixed use development and consists of fourteen streams and
fifteen wetlands. Additionally, there are two non jurisdictional ponds excavated in upland
landscape positions and one isolated, non jurisdictional wetland. The site has been field verified
by Alan Johnson (NCDEQ) on 6/14/18 and 10/9/18. A pre -application site meeting was
conducted on 10/31/18 during which the current site conditions for the commercial section of the

project were field -verified by Catherine Janiczak and Scott Jones (USACE). Please refer to the
Jurisdictional Determination section for updated information on onsite surface waters.
As shown on the attached exhibits, the proposed project will include permanent impacts to four
wetlands and three streams for fill associated with a road crossing, lot fill and grading in addition
to minor temporary impacts to one stream for the installation of a sanitary sewer to serve the
proposed residential development. Overall impacts to site surface waters associated with the
proposed development were limited through site selection location, design, location/orientation
of the proposed lots and access routes. Due to the location of the features in relation to existing
roads and municipal infrastructure, opportunities to completely avoid these features were limited.
The total permanent wetland impacts proposed include 0.069 ac of wetland (Wetlands A, PP,
CCC & DDD). The total permanent stream impacts proposed include 572 if of stream channel
(Streams AAA, BBB, and AJ-AJS-AJSS).
Efforts of impact minimization were implemented during the design to preserve the existing
channel hydrology and limit adverse effects to existing, onsite natural habitat. Large headwalls
will be used for the residential road crossing and sidewalks have been pulled in to the maximum
extent in order to keep the crossing as narrow as possible and avoid the need for additional rip
rap. Additional retaining walls and 2:1 slopes are used throughout the site where practicable to
avoid additional impacts to streams and wetlands. A catchment will direct runoff to the head of
stream AAA to maintain hydrology just below the grading impact. One temporary open cut for a
sewerline installation will be restored to pre-existing conditions per the attached stream
stabilization detail. The applicant has demonstrated substantial avoidance and minimization
efforts in which 91% of the 6,334 linear feet of stream channels and 93.4 % of the 1.05 ac of
wetlands onsite will be avoided on the project.
The applicant requests a waiver for 397 linear feet of impacts to streams AJ, AJS, and AJSS.
These features are a series of disconnected intermittent stream segments separated by non -
jurisdictional swales, as field -verified by the USACE (Catherine Janiczac and Scott Jones) on
10/31/18. These features bisect the portion of the site slated for commercial development and are
unavoidable due the constraints imposed by commercial construction requirements (i.e. flat
grades for commercial buildings, pedestrian/handicap requirements, heavy truck access routes,
etc.) The attached NCSAM indicates that these stream segments are of relatively low functional
quality characterized by relatively low hydrological connectivity with limited aquatic habitat
opportunity. Please see the enclosed assessment form for matrix scores and overall functional
ratings derived from the NCSAM. Additional forms and photographs of these features are
provided in the Waiver Request Study section of the permit application.
To compensate for the anticipated permanent impacts, the applicant is proposing payment to the
NCDMS at a 0.5: 1 ratio for 3971f of discontinuous intermittent stream segments, a 1:1 ratio for
50 linear feet of intermittent warm water stream and a 2:1 ratio for 125 linear feet of perennial
warm water stream. Please refer to the enclosed conditional acceptance letter from NCDMS.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Due to the location of the on site streams and wetland, opportunities to avoid these areas were limited. Impacts to site surface waters associated with
the proposed development were limited through site selection, location, design, & location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes.
Headwalls and 2:1 slopes are used throughout the site where practicable to avoid additional impacts to streams and wetlands. The impacts to streams
AJ, AJS, & AJSS are unavoidable to due the constraints imposed by commercial construction requirements (i.e. flat grade & access requirements).
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Construction techniques will implement approved erosion control methods to avoid/minimize impacts to onsite/adjacent offsite receiving conveyances.
Large headwalls and 2:1 & 3:1 slopes are proposed to keep the road crossing as narrow as possible and avoid the need for additional riprap. A
catchement will direct runoff to the top of stream AAA to maintain hydrology below the minimal impact. One temporary open cut for a sewerline
installation will be restored to pre-existing condition per the attached stream stabilization detail.

Project: Cannon Run County: Cabarrus
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy
of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must
be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is
calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
impact amounts shown below.

GENERAL LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION:
The Cannon Run site (+/- 128.5 acres) is located just south of Hwy 73, just
north of Harris Road, and just west of Odell School Road in Cabarrus County,
North Carolina. It can be found on the Kannapolis NC USGS Topographic
Quadrangle Map; latitude is 35.4345 N, longitude is 80.7302 W. The topography
is gently to moderately sloped with the elevation ranging from 640 to 700 ft.
(Figure 1). The site is a mosaic of partially rough graded land and wooded
slopes. There are numerous dirt roads and trails lacing the site and it is
disturbed throughout. There is roadside frontage along Hwy 73, Odell School
Road and Harris Road. Two unnamed tributaries to Rocky River flow
southwest through the site.

Cannon Run - Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
PROTECTED SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS:
One plant species with federal protection was the focus of the survey efforts:
• Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), listed as Federally
Endangered, is typically found in open habitats which historically have
been maintained by wildfires and grazing bison and elk herds. Now most
occurrences are limited to roadsides, woodland and field edges, and
utility rights -of -way (ROW).
A total of three animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially
occurring in Cabarrus County:
• Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), protected by the Bald and
Golden Eagle Protection Act, typically inhabits forested areas near large
bodies of open w ater such as lakes, marshes, seacoasts and rivers,
where there are suitable fish populations and tall trees for nesting and
roosting.
• Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), listed as Federally
Endangered, is restricted to cool, clean, well -oxygenated water. Stable,
silt- free stream beds are required for this species. Typically stable areas
occur where the stream banks are well -vegetated with trees and shrubs.
• Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis), listed as Federally
Threatened. During summer, northern long-eared bats roost singly or in
colonies underneath bark, in cavities, or in crevices of both live and dead
trees. Males and non -reproductive females may also roost in cooler
places, like caves and mines. It has also been found, rarely, roosting in
structures like barns and sheds. Northern long-eared bats spend winter
hibernating in caves and mines, called hibernacula.

Cannon Run - Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
RESULTS:
The site is a mosaic of partially rough graded land and wooded slopes. There
are numerous dirt roads and trails lacing the site and it is disturbed throughout.
There is roadside frontage along Hwy 73, Odell School Road and Harris Road.
Two unnamed tributaries to Rocky River flow southeastward through the site.
The western and northern sections of the site are disturbed from previously
abandoned rough grading and sediment basin construction, with stockpiles, cut
slopes, open expanses of scrub/shrub cover, thickets, hedgerows, strips of
wooded stream buffers, and disturbed, early successional tree cover.
Abandoned construction materials, concrete pipes and fittings, and trash piles
are scattered on site.
These previously rough graded and disturbed areas are dominated by Sericea
Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata) which is commonly planted for soil stabilization,
along with Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Winged Sumac (Rhus copallina), Japanese
Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), and Catbrier (Smilax sp.). Also present are
Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense), Broomsedge (Andropogon virginianum),

(Verbena brasiliensis), (Pokeweed (Phytolacca americans), Sneezeweed
(Helenium sp.), Ragwort (Packera sp.), Rabbit Tobacco (Gnapthalium
obtusifolium), Indian Hemp (Apocynum cannabinum), and Foxtail (Setaria sp.).
Some areas are more overgrown with small saplings of Red Cedar (Juniperus
virginiana), Virginia Pine (Pinus virginiana), Shortleaf Pine (P. echinata), Winged
Elm (Ulmus alata), and Black Cherry (Prunus serotina). Invasive shrub species
present include Russian Olive (Elaeagnus umbellate) and Chinese Privet
(Ligustrum sinense).

Cannon Run - Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Results
• All potential habitats for Schweinitz's Sunflower along the roadsides; open
areas; hedgerows; and woods edges were closely examined, and no
plants were found.
• No habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there were no sightings
nor were any nesting sites observed.
• The streams on site do not have the habitat characteristics required to
support populations of the Carolina Heelsplitter. No mussels were
observed during the survey nor would any be expected on -site
• Comparing this site location to the USFWS Asheville office's website
(http://www.fws.gov/asheville/htmis/project review/NLEB in WNC.html) it
appears that the site meets the "exempt" criteria which requires no further
action under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for the northern
long eared bat.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the site investigation and the review of available data, WEPG did not
identify any protected species occurring on the subject property. No further
investigation of the presence of protected species on this site is recommended at
this time.

3j. Comments:
A waiver is requested for impacts to intermittent streams AJ, AJS, & AJSS. These are a series of disconnected intermittent stream segments with a
hydrology primarily driven by flashy overland flow. Impacts to these features (397 If) are unavoidable due to the engineering and design constraints of
the commercial development. Please refer to the cover letter and Waiver Study section enclosed for more details.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Due to the location of the on site streams and wetland, opportunities to avoid these areas were limited. Impacts to site surface waters associated with
the proposed development were limited through site selection, location, design, & location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes.
Fleadwalls and 2:1 slopes are used throughout the site where practicable to avoid additional impacts to streams and wetlands. The impacts to streams
AJ, AJS, & AJSS are unavoidable to due the constraints imposed by commercial construction requirements (i.e. flat grade & access requirements).
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Construction techniques will implement approved erosion control methods to avoid/minimize impacts to onsite/adjacent offsite receiving conveyances.
Large headwalls and 2:1 & 3:1 slopes are proposed to keep the road crossing as narrow as possible and avoid the need for additional riprap. A
catchement will direct runoff to the top of stream AAA to maintain hydrology belowthe minimal impact. One temporary open cut for a sewerline
installation will be restored to pre-exsting condition per the attached stream stabilization detail.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
