Send all suspicious email as an attachment to Mff-rt-s—pam@nc.gov Alan, It took a little more back and forth with the engineer, but I've attached a fully updated PCN packet here that reflects the changes per our previous discussions. Ultimately, they redesigned the commercial layout and crossing and were able to reduce the permanent impacts to the discontinuous intermittent stream segments by a total of 173 linear feet. Figure 12 (page 31 of 94 in the packet) highlights these changes and I've added an updated impacts table (page 10 of 94) that summarizes the updated impact totals. Please let me know if you have any other questions or would like me to submit these updates in another format.

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 Charlotte Office: www.wetlands-epg.com Asheville Office: 10612-D Providence Rd. 1070 Tunnel Rd- Bldg. I PMB 550 Suite 10, PMB 283 Charlotte, NC 28277 Asheville, NC 28805 (704)904-2277 1 Ien.rindner@wetlands-epg.com Wetlands and Environmental Planning Group Leonard S. Rindner, PLLC. 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 4001f 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 93.6% 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 225 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 225 if 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.

IN NO G. Jurisdictional Determination Request 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. ALL REQUESTS Map of Property or Project Area. This Map must clearly depict the boundaries of the review area. ✓❑ Size of Property or Review Area 128.5 acres. ❑✓ The property boundary (or review area boundary) is clearly physically marked on the site. Version: May 2017 Page 4 Jurisdictional Determination Request H.

[Required] ❑ Waters subject to the ebb and flow of the tide. ❑ Waters are presently used, or have been used in the past, or may be susceptible for use to transport interstate or foreign commerce. Explain: B. CWA SECTION 404 DETERMINATION OF JURISDICTION. There Are "waters of the U.S." within Clean Water Act (CWA) jurisdiction (as defined by 33 CFR part 328) in the review area. [Required] 1. Waters of the U.S. a. Indicate presence of waters of U.S. in review area (check all that apply): 1 ❑ TNWs, including territorial seas ❑ Wetlands adjacent to TNWs ® Relatively permanent waters2 (RPWs) that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs ® Non-RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs ® Wetlands directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs ® Wetlands adjacent to but not directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs Wetlands adjacent to non-RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs ❑ Impoundments of jurisdictional waters ® Isolated (interstate or intrastate) waters, including isolated wetlands b. Identify (estimate) size of waters of the U.S. in the review area: Non -wetland waters: 6,334 linear feet: width (ft) and/or acres. Wetlands: 1.05 acres. c. Limits (boundaries) of jurisdiction based on: 1987 Delineation Manual Elevation of established OHWM (if known): Non -regulated waters/wetlands (check if applicable):3 ® Potentially jurisdictional waters and/or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to be not jurisdictional. Explain: The site contains 0.09 acres of wetlands and two open water ponds that are being considered isolated and non - jurisdictional. Specifically, as identified on the attached delineation map, Isolated Ponds Y & Z, and Isolated/Non- Jurisdictional Wetland X are being considered isolated and non -jurisdictional. These areas are classified by Schafale & Weakely (Classification of the Natural Communities of North Carolina Third Approximation, 1990) as an Upland Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below. s For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year-round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally" (e.g., typically 3 months). s Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F. Depression Swamp Forest community type which are found on broad upland flats and high ridge tops. Based on extensive past experience with these wetland communities which are only found in this region, they are typically naturally isolated with no surrounding drainages (overland or jurisdictional) that connects them to downslope features. The areas surrounding these isolated wetlands have been maintained for agricultural use and there are no signs of overalnd flow, drainage patterns, ditches, grassed swales, or any other kind of drainage system that may connect these areas to downslope jurisdictional areas. SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2 and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below. 1. TNW Identify TNW: Summarize rationale supporting determination: 2. Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent': B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY): This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met. The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3 months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round (perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow, skip to Section III.D.4. A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law. If the waterbody4 is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below. 1. Characteristics of non-TNWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNW (i) General Area Conditions: Watershed size: 7,213 square miles Drainage area: 0.5 square miles Average annual rainfall: 44 inches Average annual snowfall: 0 inches (ii) Physical Characteristics: (a) Relationship with TNW: ® Tributary flows directly into TNW. ❑ Tributary flows through Pick List tributaries before entering TNW.

Project waters are 1 (or less) aerial (straight) miles from RPW. Project waters cross or serve as state boundaries. Explain: Identify flow route to TNW5: . Project waters flow SW from the site through an unnamed tributary to the Rocky River (TNW). 'Note that the Instructional Guidebook contains additional information regarding swales, ditches, washes, and erosional features generally and in the and West. 5 Flow route can be described by identifying, e.g., tributary a, which flows through the review area, to flow into tributary b, which then flows into TNW.

Explain: Identify specific pollutants, if known: 'A natural or man-made discontinuity in the OHWM does not necessarily sever jurisdiction (e.g., where the stream temporarily flows underground, or where the OHWM has been removed by development or agricultural practices). Where there is a break in the OHWM that is unrelated to the waterbody's flow regime (e.g., flow over a rock outcrop or through a culvert), the agencies will look for indicators of flow above and below the break.

SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW. Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus. Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example: • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW? Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below: Significant nexus findings for non-RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D: Significant nexus findings for non-RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non-RPW flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III.D: Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III.D: Wetlands A, CC, G & P are adjacent but not abutting onsite jurisdictional RPWs and are connected by channelized surface flow.

Maps and aerial photographs were assembled, and the site was investigated during the week of March 26, 2019 Table 1: Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species listed for Cabarrus County County: Cabarrus, NC *Source: US Fish & Wildlife Service **Data search on March 26, 2019 Federal Group Name Status Record Status Vascular Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus Endangered Current Plants schweinitzii) Vertebrate Northern Long -Eared Bat (Myotis Threatened Probable/Potential septentrionalis) Vertebrate Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) Protected Current Invertebrate Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) Endangered Historic Wetlands and Environmental Planning Group Leonard S. Rindner, PLLC. 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. Wetlands and Environmental Planning Group Leonard S. Rindner, PLLC. 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), Goldenrod (Solidago spp.), Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifoila), Brazilian Vervain (Verbena brasiliensis), (Pokeweed (Phytolacca americana), Sneezeweed (Helenium sp.), Ragwort (Packers 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). The wooded slopes and stream buffers have scattered large tree species present with Willow Oak (Q. phellos), White Oak (Q. alba), Black Oak (Q. velutina), Southern Red Oak (Q. falcata), Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Virginia Pine (Pinus virginiana), Short -leaf Pine (P. taeda), Cottonwood (Populus deltoides), and Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera). Subcanopy species include Red Maple (Acer rubrum), Redbud (Cercis canadensis), Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), Ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), and American Holly (Ilex opaca). The shrub layer is dominated by Autumn Olive (Elaeagnus umbellate). Additional shrubs present include Elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), Black Haw (Viburnum prunifolium), Paw Paw (Asimina triloba) and Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense). Vines present are Catbrier (Smilax spp.), Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Crossvine (Bignoinia capreolata), Trumpet Creeper (Campsis radicans), Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), and Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans). Wetlands and Environmental Planning Group Leonard S. Rindner, PLLC. 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/protect 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. Respectfully submitted, # Lisa R.
