' Dear Mr. Smith:
t Please find enclosed our response submittal package for a Preliminary Jurisdictional
Determination. Field work for this determination was completed on April 3, 2009 and
June 18, 2009. The site is located near Congentrix Avenue in Southport, NC; the project
' involves connecting an access road between the EPCOR-Southport Coal plant and
highway 87 (River Road SE). The wetland has been delineated as a depressional swamp
forest, non-abutting relatively permanent waters; however via a significant nexus there is
connection to waters of the US and deemed jurisdictional. It is the intention of this
permit package to request a Nationwide 14 - Linear Transportation. We are proposing
0.39 acres of impact to depressional wetlands and 220 linear feet of stream impacts.

' Wetland Delineation for EPCOR Southport Access Road October, 2009
1.0 Introduction
This report provides a description of wetlands identified by McKim & Creed on a site visit on
' April 3, 2009 and June 18, 2009 to the EPCOR Coal Facility in Southport, NC. The project
involves the construction of an access road to the plant for the purpose of delivering
goods/materials. The project site is located west of the plant through a currently managed
' timber portion of the property. The downstream portion of the site is drained by a Fish and
Wildlife Service (FWS) wetland delineated as PF01G; see Exhibit #1 in the attached appendix.
' The conservation of wetland and stream resources is a significant component of land
development and an essential element of sound land stewardship. The wetland at the Access
Road site is protected as follows:
Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act prohibits the discharge of dredge or fill material
in waters of the United States without authorization from the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers. Section 10 of the Federal Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 prohibits the obstruction
or alteration of navigable waters of the United States without a Corps permit. This means
that no activity can occur in wetlands or streams without Corps permission.
The first step in obtaining approval for activities that may impact wetlands and streams is the
accurate delineation of wetland and stream resources. This report provides information needed
by land planners, engineers, landscape architects, and federal, state and county environmental
regulators to insure the proper and legal conservation of these resources. Wetlands and streams
are dynamic natural systems that change in size and function over time. The legal limits to the
resources should not be considered defined until the Army Corps of Engineers (ACE) has
McKim & Creed, PA 2
Exhibit 1: NWI Overlaid with Aerial Photography
Wetland Delineation for EPCOR Southport Access Road October, 2009
inspected the delineation and an official letter has been received recognizing this delineation as
accurate and complete. The length of time this delineation is considered valid will be defined in
the approval letter and is usually five years.
2.0 Methods
The following definition of wetlands is the regulatory definition used by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and the ACE in non-agricultural areas:
"Those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency
and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a
prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands
generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas".
Three criteria must be satisfied for an area to be determined wetlands:
• Vegetation must be present which has the ability to grow, effectively compete,
reproduce, and/or persist in saturated soil conditions.
• Hydric soils must be present as defined by indicator characteristics of prolonged
anaerobic and saturated conditions.
• Hydrology must be present which results in periodic inundation or prolonged
saturation of the biologically active portion of the soil.
The procedure used to delineate wetlands at the site is defined in the Interim Regional
Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain
Region (Wetland Regulatory Assistance Program, 2008). Available data on hydrology, soils,
vegetation, and land use was obtained in various formats including GIS and or online data
servers; this data was obtained from various agencies. Detailed soils descriptions were taken
from the Soil Survey of Cumberland County, North Carolina. National Wetland Inventory
Maps were also utilized (see Exhibit 1) as well as an on site inspection.
Field inspection of the property was conducted on April 3, 2009 during fair weather; however it
should be noted that the area received 0.09 and 0.75 inches of rain on April ls' & 2nd respectively.
Observations were made in the field to identify any atypical conditions such as artificial
disturbances that may have influenced the presence of hydric soils or vegetation.
Representative observation areas were selected based on field judgment to determine limits
based on hydraulic gradient, plant community change, and obvious physical topographic
changes. Probable wetland areas were physically probed for the presence of hydric soils. These
soils were tested and deemed hydric or non-hydric based on field observation per page 32-39 of
the ACE Interim Regional Supplement (See photo herein). Vegetation, soils, and hydrology were
examined at each of thirteen (13) observation areas indicated as WB#100 - WB#108, WB#01,
WB#02, WB#03, and WB#05 on attached survey plat. The limits of wetlands were defined by
McKim & Creed, PA 3
Wetland Delineation for EPCOR Southport Access Road October, 2009
placing sequentially pink flags along the outer limit of the wetland plant community or obvious
physical boundary; flagged locations were then surveyed by professional surveyors.
Photo 1 & 2 (Left Hydric Soil indicator All & S4 at WB#01; Right Hydric Soil indicator All & S4 at
WB#02)
Dominant plant species at each observation point are described in the data sheets under
Appendix A. Indicator status was assigned as defined in the National List of Plant Species That
Occur in Wetlands (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). Hydrophytic vegetation was determined
to be present when more than fifty percent of the dominant species had an indicator status of
obligate, facultative wet, or facultative, according to the "50-20" rule. The prevalence index was
also used to determine if hydrophytic vegetation is present, methodology is described on page
25 of the ACE Interim Regional Supplement. The prevalence index is a value which shows the
prevalence of hydrophytic vegetation the range is from 1 to 5, a value of 3 or less indicates
hydrophytic vegetation is present.
Shallow soil excavations were made to a depth of 24 inches or refusal to determine if hydric soil
characteristics were present. Indicators of frequent flooding or prolonged saturation which
were searched for included the presence of organic soils, histic epipedons, sulfic material, aquic
or peraquic moisture regimes, and soil colors that were gleyed or had a matrix chroma of two or
less. Indicators of wetland hydrology which were searched for included visual observation of
soil saturation, water marks, drift lines, sediment deposits, and drainage patterns. The
vegetation, soil, and hydrologic features documented were used to characterize wetlands
according to the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Classification of Wetlands and Deep Water Habitats,
(Cowardin, 1979) as well as the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM)
Wetland Mapping in Coastal North Carolina (1999).

3.0 Results
Wetland adjacent to a PF01/2C and RPW)
The wetland areas lie on a relic floodplain which has been used for timber management for the
past several years. The areas marked as wetlands meet all three ACE criteria; obvious
hydrologic support, a dominant hydrophytic plant community and obvious hydric soils. The
area has been recently logged therefore the amount of vegetation on site was very limited;
however there were still FAC or wetter species in the area to indentify as a wetland indicator.
There is connection to TNW and RPW through a significant nexus, please see next page and
appendix for significant nexus analysis. This wetland area is an extension of a large wetland
adjacent to Persimmon Creek which is considered a Relatively Permanent Waters (RPW). This
area is dominated by red bay (Persea borbonia), loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), and other tree species
within a sluggish backwater area before emptying directly into wetlands along Persimmon
Creek.

Significant nexus
October, 2009
"A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the relevant
reach of the tributary, in combination with functions collectively performed by all wetlands
adjacent to the tributary, to determine if they have more than an insubstantial or speculative
effect on the chemical, physical, or biological integrity of TNWs" (Padgett, Savannah District)
[In absence of definition within Wilmington webpage Savannah Districts definition was used.]."
The significant nexus determination for this jurisdictional Determination is as follows, rainfall
from this review area makes its way into the wetland where natural process within the wetland
treat rainfall and surface waters, these waters then drain into ephemeral agricultural swales,
theses swales then drain into an RPW which typically has a constant discharge from the
Brunswick Nuclear Power Plant, this channel then discharges into a TNW the Atlantic Ocean.
The steps here indicate the direct connection between the review area and jurisdictional waters.

Ephemeral stream (non- RPW)
' This property is/was used to manage timber, which has been harvested several times with
mechanical harvesting equipment as well as planted with heavy machinery when this
machinery breaks ground it also creates small rows for planting (Photo 6). These rows often
' hold water after rain showers, which quickly drains through the soil matrix or is taken up by
the vegetation. The property on the EPCOR site is covered in these small tree rows or shallow
' drainage ditches. Using the NC Division of Water Quality Stream Identification Form these
ditches where assessed to have fewer points than 19, therefore deemed ephemeral and non-
jurisdictional. Please see appendix for all stream call worksheets.

Photo 8 and 9: Photo at Stream #7 (Left) and #8 (Right)
Intermittent stream (seasonal RPW)
' The swale located behind the EPCOR plant is assessed as being intermittent based on the NC
Division of Water Quality Stream Identification Form. As seen from the photos above (8 and 9)
there is a high abundance of a photo algae, which identifies this stream holds water for
' significant portions of the year. This reach was scored at 22.5 points in the downstream portion
(Photo 8, Stream 7) and 20 points in the upstream portion (Photo 9, Stream 8), per the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality Stream Identification Form (see Appendix A); a score
' between 20 and 29 is considered an indication of an intermittent stream (<=19 is ephemeral,
>=30 is considered perennial).
Threatened and Endangered Species
' McKim & Creed solicited information pertaining to rare, threatened and endangered species,
historic sites, existing cemeteries and the like using data made available through the US Fish
and Wildlife Endangered Species, threatened Species, Federal Species of Concern, and Candidate Species
for Brunswick County NC. Please see Table 2: Endangered Species, threatened Species, Federal Species
of Concern, and Candidate Species for Brunswick County NC, for a list detailing these results.
MCE also solicited data from the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program, the database can be
' found at (http://www.ncnhp.org/Pages/heritagedata.html). Results from this search are

In the previous section, jurisdictional w etlands loca ted on the EPCOR property are defined, in
the vicinity of the Access Road only. Wetlands on the property outside of the proposed
roadway corridor were not assessed; therefore this assessment should not be considered a total
site assessment. The limits of wetland resources should be confirmed by the ACE prior to
proceeding with plans to impact this site if impact will be close to or within the flagged wetland
limits. We strongly recommend minimizing wetland and stream disturbance to the greatest
extent possible.

5.0 Avoidance and Minimization
October, 2009
The project is proposed to provide a roadway for truck transport of solid wood and TDF ( tire-
derived fuel) fuels to the Capital Power Corp (formerly EPCOR Operations North Carolina)
Southport Coal Power Plant. The project area through which the roadway must cross in order
to connect the plant is currently mapped by the National Wetlands Inventory as "managed pine
flat"; the property has recently been timbered. The roadway would need to traverse across four
(4) small depressional wetlands. The alignment has been proposed to minimize the amount of
impact to waters of the US. The largest impact is located through Wetland #3; however, this is
unavoidable as this area appears to consist of a large wetland complex even extending outside
of the projects review area. As shown on Exhibit #7 "Waters of the US Impacts" the other
impacts to wetlands/waters onsite have been minimized to all extent practical. Also, to ensure
connectivity between the north and south portions of Wetland #3, a reinforced concrete culvert
will be used to ensure the wetland stays hydraulically connected. The culvert will allow water
to move through the roadbed which will allow for passage of insects and amphibians, to ensure
wetland protection.
6.0 Purpose and Need
The plant is currently operating as a coal burning power plant. The plant initiated a project to
increase renewable fuels (wood and TDF) use, reduce emissions and lower power generation
' cost. The increased use of the renewable fuels will require a substantial increase in 18-wheeler
truck traffic to haul the renewable fuels to the plant. Capital Power Corp (formerly EPCOR
Operations North Carolina) has negotiated with Progress Energy to lease the property, the
' Town of Southport, NC in the construction of the new access roadway, and the NCDENR for
applicable environmental permitting of the roadway. The representatives from the Town have
requested that the increase in large truck traffic not be routed through the town's streets to
avoid traffic dangers, congestion and related deterrents to local businesses along the town's
streets. Environmental permit application submittals will address applicable construction
erosion & sedimentation control, wetlands, and stormwater control requirements. From a
safety perspective, the alternate access route enables the plant to separate fuel truck traffic from
internal plant traffic. The new access road project is an essential component to the safe and
reliable management of truck traffic, fuel delivery and efficient off-loading of fuels at the
Southport Plant.

E. REVIEW PERFORMED FOR SITE EVALUATION (CHECK ALL THAT
APPLY):
® Office (Desk) Determination. Date: 81712009
® Field Determination. Date(s): 410312009; 611812009
1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the
United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party
who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to
request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site.
Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this
preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in
this instance and at this time.
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
approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the
following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization
based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of
jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved
JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and
that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less
compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that
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)
that 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) that undertaking
any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting
an approved JD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the
preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is
practicable; (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 preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all
wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity
are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes 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 approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD
will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, 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,
and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33
C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary
2

to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or
to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will
provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable.
This preliminary JD finds that there "may be" waters of the United States on the
subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be
affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:
SUPPORTING DATA. Data reviewed for preliminary JD (check all that apply

3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
Site is undeveloped and has been recently timbered; please see project narrative for further detail.
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
1.64 acres within the limits of the new access road; wetlands on entire site were not delineated. (See narrative for further
detail.)
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
974 linear feet of perennial stream and 326 linear feet of intermittent streams within the limits of the new access road;
stream calls were not made on streams outside this foot print.
3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
Creation of access road for power plant to bring in renewable resources (wood) and waste products (tires) to be
converted into electricity. The reason for creating this access road versus using the existing roads is for safety of the
pedistrians which walk the streets of Southport. When the plant is converted to the renewable resources truck transport
will deliver solid wood and TDF (tire-derived fuel) on a daily basis. This would be unacceptable to the saftey of the local
towns people if these trucks were routed straight through the heart of the town. Please see narrative for further detail.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
Access road will be paved and 24 feet wide. Road will be ditched on both sides with grass swales. Six (6) culverts will be
required to pass drainage along existing drainage ways. Road will be built with conventional construction equipment.
Please see narrative for further detail.

RE: EPCOR Southport - North Carolina Emission Control Project Access Road
Dear Ms. Gledhill-Earley:
EPCOR Southport, a coal firepower plant located in Southport, NC, is
converting to a renewable resource power plant. As such, the plant will require
more materials via tractor trailers; therefore, the plant is proposing to develop an
access path from NC 211 to the plant. The project is located at coordinates
33.945567 N 78.015014 W. I have also included a project map for your reference.
As per US Army Corp of Engineer's Pre-Construction Notification requirements
for the protection of properties in the National Historic Register, we are
requesting information regarding the presence of historical, cultural and
archaeological items on or near the above referenced project. Please forward any
information you may have at your earliest convenience to:

Dear Mr. Hinkle:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Natural Heritage Program has no record of rare species, significant natural communities, significant
natural heritage areas, or conservation/managed areas at the site nor within 0.5=mile of the project area.
Although our maps do not show records of such natural heritage elements in the project area, it does not
necessarily mean that they are not present. It may simply mean that the area has not been surveyed. The
use of Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys, particularly if the
project area contains suitable habitat for rare species, significant natural communities, or priority natural
areas.
You may wish to check the Natural Heritage Program database website at Nvww.ncnhp.org for a listing of
' rare plants and animals and significant natural communities in the county and on the quad map. Our
Program also has a new website that allows users to obtain information on element occurrences and
significant natural heritage areas within two mules of a given location:
' <http://nhpNveb.enr.state.nc.us/nhis/public/gmap75-main.phtml>. The user name is "public" and the
password is "heritage". You may want to click "Help" for more information.
NC OneMap now provides digital Natural Heritage data online for free. This service provides site
specific information on GIS layers with Natural Heritage Program rare species occurrences and
Significant Natural Heritage Areas. The NC OneMap website provides Element Occurrence (EO) ID
numbers (instead of species name), and the data user is then encouraged to contact the Natural Heritage
' Program for detailed information. This service allows the user to quickly and efficiently get site specific
NHP data without visiting the NHP workroom or waiting for the Information Request to be answered by
NHP staff. For more information about data formats and access, visit <www.nconemap.com>, then click
on "FTP Data Download", and then "nheo,zip" [to the right of "Natural Heritage Element Occurrences"].
You may also e-mail NC OneMap at <datagOnemail.net> for more information.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at 919-715-8697 if you have questions or need further information.

I Hydric Rating by Map Unit-Brunswick County, North Carolina
I Description
EPCOR Southport Hydric Soils Map
' This rating indicates the proportion of map units that meets the criteria for hydric
soils. Map units are composed of one or more map unit components or soil types,
each of which is rated as hydric soil or not hydric. Map units that are made up
dominantly of hydric soils may have small areas of minor nonhydric components in
' the higher positions on the landform, and map units that are made up dominantly
of nonhydric soils may have small areas of minor hydric components in the lower
positions on the landform. Each map unit is designated as "all hydric," "partially
' hydric," "not hydric," or "unknown hydric," depending on the rating of its respective
components.
"All hydric" means that all components listed for a given map unit are rated as being
hydric, while "not hydric" means that all components are rated as not hydric.
"Partially hydric" means that at least one component of the map unit is rated as
hydric, and at least one component is rated as not hydric. "Unknown hydric"
indicates that at least one component is not rated so a definitive rating for the map
' unit cannot be made.
Hydric soils are defined by the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils
(NTCHS) as soils that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding
' long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the
upper part (Federal Register, 1994). Under natural conditions, these soils are either
saturated or inundated long enough during the growing season to support the
' growth and reproduction of hydrophytic vegetation.
The NTCHS definition identifies general soil properties that are associated with
I wetness. In order to determine whether a specific soil is a hydric soil or nonhydric
soil, however, more specific information, such as information about the depth and
duration of the water table, is needed. Thus, criteria that identify those estimated
soil properties unique to hydric soils have been established (Federal Register,
2002). These criteria are used to identify map unit components that normally are
associated with wetlands. The criteria used are selected estimated soil properties
that are described in "Soil Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 1999) and "Keys to Soil
Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 2006) and in the "Soil Survey Manual" (Soil Survey
Division Staff, 1993).
If soils are wet enough for a long enough period of time to be considered hydric,
' they should exhibit certain properties that can be easily observed in the field. These
visible properties are indicators of hydric soils. The indicators used to make onsite
determinations of hydric soils are specified in "Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the
United States" (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006).

Description
"Water table" refers to a saturated zone in the soil. It occurs during specified
months. Estimates of the upper limit are based mainly on observations of the water
table at selected sites and on evidence of a saturated zone, namely grayish colors
(redoximorphic features) in the soil. A saturated zone that lasts for less than a month
is not considered a water table.
This attribute is actually recorded as three separate values in the database. A low
value and a high value indicate the range of this attribute for the soil component. A
"representative" value indicates the expected value of this attribute for the
component. For this soil property, only the representative value is used.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
' to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
' comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
' comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
