Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3884 for construction activities associated with the proposed Barrier Road 100KV Tap Transmission Line Project in Cabarrus and Rowan Counties (Figures 1 and 2). The Project encompasses approximately 2.8 miles within a 68 -foot wide Duke Energy owned right - of -way beginning near Chapman Farm Lane, where it will tie into Duke Energy's existing transmission line and end at the proposed Barrier Road Retail Substation as shown in the enclosed figures. Duke Energy is proposing to install the new 100kV transmission line including one switch structure, 24 poles with wire, and a substation in order for added capacity. The areas investigated are those that will be potentially affected by the construction of the Project. HDR's on -site investigation included a delineation of jurisdictional waters of the U.S. in an approximately 23 -acre Study Area and preliminary habitat survey for federally protected species. Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. HDR reviewed the proposed alignment for jurisdictional waters of the U.S. under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The alignment was examined according to the methodology described in the USACE 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual, USACE Post- Rapanos guidance, the recent USACE hdrinc.com 400 South Church Street Suites 900 & 1000.

If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary 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 3 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 IMPORTANT NOTE: The information recorded on this form has not necessarily been verified by the Corps and should not be relied upon for later jurisdictional determinations.
