4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The Town of Clayton is requiring an access to the property from Shotwell Road . This will allow traffic
to enter the High Gate S/D from Shotwell Road and also Covered Bridge Road. The required entrance from Shotwell Road will assist in Fire/Rescue access and ease traffic along
Covered Bridge Road.
41. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The entrance will connect High Gate S/D to Shotwell Road. The new Street G will begin at the crossing at wetland impact area 1, this crossing will avoid buffer and stream impact, Street
G will run south and east to Stream Crossing/Buffer Impact Area 1 and Wetland Impact Area 2, after this crossing the project will stop at the Project Area line (Everland-Lee Property
Line). A waterline will be installed at the Stream Crossing/Buffer Impact Area 2 and Wetland Impact Area 3. This waterline is required by the Town of Clayton. Bulldozer will be used to
clear the road, a track -hoe will be used to install the crossings and the waterline. No further impact to wetlands or streams are planned and won't be allowed in this project without a new
permit. New building lots will be made available as a result of Street G . These new house lots will not be in the Neuse Buffer or wetlands. The wetlands and buffer will be clearly shown
on the master plan and no impact without a permit will be allowed.

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:
The first crossing Wetland Impact Area #1 was able to be pushed upstream enough to avoid the stream channel and the stream buffer. On
Stream/Buffer Crossing #1 and Wetland #2 C we are using head walls to lessen the impact to the channel and wetland. We are being forced by
NCDOT to push the crossing east of Shotwell Road. I have attached a letter from Jerry Dalton, PE the engineer for this project in the Miscellaneous
section explaining that DOT is requiring the road in this location.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Care will be taken to disturb as small amount as possible in the riparian areas, care will also be taken not to work in the riparian areas during periods
of high flow or when rain forecast is imminent. Pump around will be installed when working in the wet and the area will be temporarily stabilized at the
end of each work day. The riparian areas will be immediately stabilized when work is completed. The project will also have an approved sediment and
erosion control plan which will be followed.

greater than 10cm/second. Further, they need clean, flowing water characterized by high dissolved oxygen concentrations." Our stream 1 is -3 ft wide,
slow flowing and part of it goes into a braided wetland. No effect.
Carolina madtoms-"Prefer clean water with permanent flow and are not tolerant of siltation and turbidity." Stream 1 is a typical small urbanized stream
with a watershed of recently built S/D's causing the stream to be turbid and silty, the area of the crossing is inside a previous pond site, the dam failed
a few years ago, the previous impoundment bottom is silty. No effect.
Atlantic pigtoe-" is dependent on clean, moderate -flowing water with high dissolved oxygen content, the most abundant populations existed in creeks
and rivers with excellent water quality, and where stream flows were sufficient to maintain clean, silt -free substrates." As stated Stream 1 is a small,
urban stream, flowing through a breached pond impoundment with relic silt and sediment. No effect.
Dwarf Wedge Mussel -"To survive, they need a silt -free, stable streambed and welloxygenated water free of pollutants." As stated Stream 1 is a typical
small urban stream that is sity. No effect.
Michauxs sumac -the project area has small growth pines, I have walked around the site and did not observe Michaw>ts sumac. No effect.

Highgate Phases
Roadway Access

As requested, the following Is an explanation as to why the crossing from Highgate Phase 5 into the
property owned by EvedandV ee, LM is positioned relatively close to Shmwell Road:
The entrance off Showell Road, into the Evedand Lee project, will he used to access both the Highgate
formed and the planned developmentof the Evedand-Lee tract. Even though there will he three to four
entrances for Me combined projects, eftherof the entrances could access abi dwelling units. The
number of units that could be accessed in Highgate alone is approximately200.
In order to get to Highgate from the Shotwell Road entrance, there will be ninety degree, left turn into
the Hghgate projectalmost immediately aherentering firm SlwCxell Road. In order to mitigate the
potential congestion a[ the entrance, it is required by Ni and good engineering practice, that a-
stacking/storege section be extended into the project to eliminate the-bai onto Sbotwell Road, for
the cars needing get to Highgate by making the left turn across traffic that is waiting to exit onto
5lrotwell Road. The stocking/storage is to Seas many cars as possible off Slicami Road while waiting
tomake the left turn into Highgete-
The distance that is currently shown is the absolute minimum that is required in order provide
mitigation for safety (minimize stacking on the very hig"rafgc Shotwell Road).
I hope this has helped explained why the crossover from Highgate W the Everland-Lee property is
located relatively close to Shotwell Road.
Thank you. `�'xG%RO ,:

IPaC resource list
This report is an automatically generated list of species and other resources such as critical habitat (collectively referred to as
trust resources) under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) jurisdiction that are known or expected to be on or near
the project area referenced below. The list may also include trust resources that occur outside of the project area, but that
could potentially be directly or indirectly aected by activities in the project area. However, determining the likelihood and
extent of eects a project may have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional site-specic (e.g.,
vegetation/species surveys) and project-specic (e.g., magnitude and timing of proposed activities) information.
Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for the USFWS oce(s) with jurisdiction
in the dened project area. Please read the introduction to each section that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds,
USFWS Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for additional information applicable to the trust resources addressed in that section.

Endangered species
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of project level impacts.
The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species. Additional areas of
inuence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of the species range if the species could be
indirectly aected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a dam upstream of a sh population, even if that sh does not occur
at the dam site, may indirectly impact the species by reducing or eliminating water ow downstream). Because species can
move, and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near the project area. To
fully determine any potential eects to species, additional site-specic and project-specic information is often required.
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary information whether any
species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area of such proposed action" for any project that is
conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any Federal agency. A letter from the local oce and a species list which fullls
this requirement can only be obtained by requesting an ocial species list from either the Regulatory Review section in IPaC
(see directions below) or from the local eld oce directly.
For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website and request an ocial
species list by doing the following:
1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE.
2. Click DEFINE PROJECT.
3. Log in (if directed to do so).
4. Provide a name and description for your project.
5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST.
Listed species and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) and the sheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries ).

Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project overlaps during a
particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4-week months.) A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species
presence. The survey eort (see below) can be used to establish a level of condence in the presence score. One can have
higher condence in the presence score if the corresponding survey eort is also high.
How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:
1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was
detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey
events and the Spotted Towhee was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is
0.25.
2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the
probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the
probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is
the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is
0.05/0.25 = 0.2.
3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible
values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score.
To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
Breeding Season ()
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time-frame inside which the bird breeds across its entire range. If there are
no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.
Survey Eort ()
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species
in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps. The number of surveys is expressed as a range, for example, 33 to 64
surveys.
To see a bar's survey eort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
No Data ()
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.

Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.
Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year round.
Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to occur in the project area. When birds may be
breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure.
To see when birds are most likely to occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional
measures and/or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species
present on your project site.
What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specied location?
The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) and other species that may warrant special
attention in your project location.
The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). The AKN data is based
on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and ltered to return a list of those birds reported as
occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project intersects, and that have been identied as warranting special attention because they are a
BCC species in that area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to oshore activities or
development.
Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not representative of all birds
that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your project area, please visit the AKN Phenology Tool.
What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specied location?
The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN).
This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets .
Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To learn more about how the
probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me
about these graphs" link.
How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area?
To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or year-round), you may refer to
the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird Guide, or (if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest
there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds guide. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with
it, if that bird does occur in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specied. If "Breeds elsewhere" is
indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?
Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:
1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA
(including Hawaii, the Pacic Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);
2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and
3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Eagle Act requirements
(for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in oshore areas from certain types of development or activities (e.g. oshore
energy development or longline shing).
Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, eorts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to
the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For more information on conservation measures you can
implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.
Details about birds that are potentially aected by oshore projects
For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of bird species within your
project area o the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal also oers data and information about other taxa
besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review. Alternately, you may download the bird model results les underlying the portal
maps through the NOAA NCCOS Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the
Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf project webpage.
Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year, including migration. Models relying
on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the
nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam Loring.
What if I have eagles on my list?
If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the Eagle Act should such impacts
occur.
Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report
The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority concern. To learn more about how
your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be in your project area, please see the FAQ “What does IPaC use to
generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specied location”. Please be aware this report provides the “probability of presence”
of birds within the 10 km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look
carefully at the survey eort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the “no data” indicator (a red horizontal bar). A high
survey eort is the key component. If the survey eort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In
1/30/2020 IPaC: Explore Location
https://ecos.fws.gov/ipac/location/6ZFNOK3JNFATPBK35DKU5VCQUM/resources 12/14
contrast, a low survey eort bar or no data bar means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is
not perfect; it is simply a starting point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be
there, and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to conrm presence, and
helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize potential impacts from your project activities,
should presence be conrmed. To learn more about conservation measures, visit the FAQ “Tell me about conservation measures I can
implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds” at the bottom of your migratory bird trust resources page.

The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and
size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identied based on vegetation, visible
hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may
result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classication established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of
the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verication work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the
source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or eld work. There may be occasional dierences in
polygon boundaries or classications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.
Data exclusions
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data
source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal
zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tubercid worm reefs) have also been excluded
from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.

Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may dene and describe wetlands in a dierent manner than that
used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to dene the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of
any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons
intending to engage in activities involving modications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state,
or local agencies concerning specied agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may aect such activities.
