Dear Mr. Brown and Ms. Higgins:
On behalf of our client, PSNC Energy (PSNC), S&ME, Inc. (S&ME) is pleased to submit this application for
impacts to Waters of the U.S. in accordance with Nationwide Permit (NWP) No. 12 and the corresponding
North Carolina Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 4086. The proposed project will involve
construction of approximately seven miles of natural gas pipeline that is compliant with current federally -
mandated requirements.
This PCN is being provided to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for approval, and complies with
all applicable conditions of NWP No. 12. Written concurrence from the North Carolina Division of Water
Resources (NCDWR) is also required in part because the proposed project does not meet condition
numbers 3 and 4 of WQC No. 4086, as specified below:
Condition No. 3: The proposed gas line will not cross all streams within the project corridor at a near -
perpendicular angle. A majority of the new line will be installed adjacent to an existing overhead
electric utility line and associated easement where not all streams are crossed within the tolerance
identified in the aforementioned WQC. Similarly, not all streams within proposed greenfield
segments of the project will be crossed at a near perpendicular angle for a variety of reasons
including preservation of landowner property values by abutting existing property lines, and
topographic, natural resources or engineering -related constraints.
Condition No. 4: The proposed project will require a combined temporary and permanent
construction easement greater than 50 -foot wide at stream and wetland crossings where the pipe will
be installed. In upland areas, the work will occur within a 75 -foot wide, or greater, area (combined

permanent and temporary easements), depending on the location of the existing pipe. In general, the
workspace will be narrowed to 65 feet or less at stream/wetland crossings. In most of these areas, the
65 -foot wide easement is required to safely accommodate the equipment and work space necessary
to install the 20 -inch diameter pipe.
By copy of this correspondence and completed PCN, we are requesting your written concurrence with this
NWP No. 12 permit application. If you have questions or need additional information, please feel free to
contact us at 704.523.4726.

PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
General Project Information
The proposed project involves construction of an approximately seven -mile segment of natural gas
transmission pipeline. The pipeline will originate at a tie-in with PSNC's T-001 transmission line west of
Trinity Church Road (35.268118°N, -81.715859°W) in Cleveland County. The line will then proceed in a
generally southwest direction, paralleling an overhead electric transmission line for much of its length,
before ending at the Duke Energy Cliffside Plant (35.214377°N, -81.763567°W) in Rutherford County.
The pipe will be 20 inches in diameter, and will be installed within a new permanent easement that is
generally 50 feet wide. At certain locations, an additional 25 to 50 feet of temporary workspace (TWS) will
be required in order to safely accommodate equipment that will install the pipe. Vegetation within the
50 -foot wide permanent easement will be maintained by periodic mowing in the future. Vegetation
within the TWS will be allowed to return to its pre -disturbance conditions following construction, and will
not be maintained in the future. Portions of the TWS will be sited in the existing Duke Energy powerline
easement that abuts the route.
The location of the project corridor is depicted on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1), a USGS Topographic Map
(Figure 2) and 2015 Aerial Photographs (Figures 3-8).
The project area is located in the Piedmont physiographic province in the Upper Broad River Basin
(03050105). General land use in the vicinity of the project corridor consists of a mix of undeveloped
woodland, residential areas, livestock pasture and open fields. Portions of the project corridor are also
located in disturbed areas inside of the power plant property.
General Vegetative Conditions
The overall project corridor consists of a variety of habitats, but consists primarily forested areas and
agricultural land.
Tree and shrub species observed within wooded portions of the project area included shortleaf pine
(Pinus echinata), Virginia pine (P. virginiana) red maple (Acer rubrum), southern red oak (Quercus falcata),
white oak (Q. alba), post oak (Q. stellata), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), and eastern red -cedar
(Juniperus virginiana), American holly (flex opoca), flowering dogwood (Cornus florida), persimmon
(Diospyros virginiana), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense). Vines observed
in these areas included crossvine (Anisostichus capreolatus), roundleaf greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia),
Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), poison ivy
(Toxicodendron radicans) and grape (Vitis sp.). Herbaceous vegetation included Christmas fern
(Polystichum acrostichoides), partridge berry (Mitchella repens), ebony spleenwort (Asplenium platyneuron),
little brown jug (Hexastylis arifolia), clubmoss, spotted wintergreen (Chimaphila moculata), and downy
rattlesnake plantain (Goodyera pubescens).
Vegetation within the adjacent powerline easement varied, but in general included sawtooth blackberry
(Rubus argutus), goldenrod (Solidago spp.), ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), dogfennel (Eupatorium
capillifolium), American pokeweed (Phytolacca americana), winged sumac (Rhus copallina),Chinese
bushclover (Lespedeza cuneato), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), wineberry (R. phoenicolosius), little
bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium), Queen Anne's lace (Daucus carota), muscadine grape (Vitis
rotundifolia), kudzu (Pueraria montana), and a number of other grasses and volunteer species. Woody

PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
saplings observed included sweetgum (Liquidambarstyrociflua), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), red
maple (Acer rubrum), American holly (Ilex opaca), box elder (Acer negundo), Chinese privet (Ligustrum
sinense), and black cherry (Prunus serotina).
In addition to the general land use types identified above, the project corridor also passed through large
areas of active agricultural land. A majority of these areas included herbaceous cultivated crops and hay
field grasses, while also common were active cattle pastures. Species located in pastureland included
horse nettle (Solanum carolinense), barnyard grass (Echinochloo crusgalli), broadleaf signal grass
(Brachiaria platyphylla), Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense), sawtooth blackberry, dogfennel, crabgrass
(Digitaria sanguinalis), buttercup (Ranunculus spp.), goldenrod, American pokeberry, morning glory
(Ipomoea purpurea), ragweed, clover, and various grasses.
Jurisdictional Areas
S&ME wetland professionals delineated Waters of the U.S. within a majority of the project corridor in
February and March, 2017. An additional field visit was subsequently conducted in April, 2017 to assess
re-routed areas. The delineation was conducted utilizing currently accepted methods for wetland
determination, as set forth in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual and the
corresponding Eastern Mountain and Piedmont Region USACE Regional Supplement Guide, which states
that under normal circumstances, an area must demonstrate the presence of 3 components to be
considered jurisdictional: 1) hydrophytic vegetation, 2) hydric soils, and 3) wetland hydrology. When
necessary, stream assessments were conducted in accordance with NCDWR and USACE guidelines.
Areas determined to be jurisdictional wetlands were dominated by red maple, tulip tree, ironwood
(Carpinus caroliniana), river birch (Betula nigra) and boxelder. Shrubs included Chinese privet, American
holly and buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis). Woody vines in typical wetland areas included poison
ivy and roundleaf greenbrier. Herbaceous vegetation includes jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), cane,
possumhaw (Viburnum nudum), spiked false -nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica), netted -chain fern (Woodwardia
areolata), cinnamon fern (Osmundastrum cinnamomeum), soft rush (Juncus effusus), sedges (Carex. Sp),
Japanese stilt -grass (Microstegium vimineum), knotweed (Polygonum aviculare), and various grasses.
The boundaries of jurisdictional areas were identified in the field using Global Positioning System (GPS)
units capable of sub -meter accuracy. The field review resulted in delineation multiple wetland areas and
streams within the proposed work area. A Request for Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination, along
with NCDENR Stream Identification Sheets, and representative Wetland Determination Data forms for
each general type of wetland observed are included in Appendix I. Photographs of typical project area
conditions are included in Appendix H.
Description of the Proposed Work
A Completed PCN, Property Owner Information and Authorization to Act as Agent are included in
Appendix III.
General Pipeline Construction
Construction of the new pipeline will first involve demarcation of clearing limits, jurisdictional boundaries,
and other associated workspaces, etc. In high ground areas, up to an additional 50 feet of temporary

Pre -Construction Notification S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
workspace (TWS) adjacent to the proposed new 50 -foot wide easement will be required to safely install
the new pipe. At stream and wetland crossings, the TWS will be reduced to 15 feet (65 feet of total
disturbance). In wetland areas, efforts will be made to remove surface vegetation in a manner that
minimizes disturbance of the substrate and prevents exposure of soil. If necessary, temporary equipment
crossings will be installed along one side of the easement to facilitate equipment passage, cross over
streams, and prevent excessive rutting and ground disturbance in the wetlands. Appropriate erosion &
sedimentation control (E&SC) measures will be installed as clearing proceeds to prevent sedimentation of
jurisdictional features.
Grubbing and below -ground vegetation removal will be minimized within wetlands or along stream
banks. Where the pipe will be installed by conventional means (e.g. "open -trench" or "isolation"),
grubbing will be limited, to the extent practicable, to the trench line. Select upland portions of the
easement may require rough grading to facilitate safe passage of equipment, and to prepare a suitably -
level work surface. Within wetland areas where extensive rutting or soil disturbance may occur, timber
mats are planned for use to provide work and travel space for equipment.
Following preparation of the work area and installation of necessary E&SC measures, the trench will be
excavated along the "non -working" side of the easement. Subsurface disturbance will only be conducted
within the trench line at wetlands and stream crossings. Stump removal or light grading may occur on the
working side of the easement if required for safety reasons. The work will be performed from the timber
mats placed along the working side of the easement. In certain areas, including wetlands and fields
supporting crops, efforts will be made to segregate topsoil from the subsoil. If necessary, trench breakers
(temporary barriers generally constructed of sand bags or similarly suitable material) will be installed
within the trench to slow the flow of subsurface water.
In general, 40 -foot lengths of the 20 -inch pipe will be trucked to the site from temporary storage yards,
strung along the easement and placed on skids (wooden pedestals). Specialized machines will be used to
bend individual segments of pipe to fit the contours of the trench where necessary. The pipe segments
will be welded together, x-rayed, the structural integrity and surface coating inspected, and then lowered
into the trench. Segments of the trench may require dewatering or "padding" to prevent large rocks or
other debris from coming in contact with the pipe. Permanent trench breakers will then be installed
where necessary and the trench backfilled. In areas where segregation of the subsoil and topsoil is
required, the topsoil will be replaced last. Affected areas will then be "cleaned up" by rough -grading and
temporary seeding (if necessary), followed by final grading, permanent seeding and mulching to restore
the easement as closely as possible to pre -disturbance contours and conditions.
Work within wetlands and streams will be conducted in accordance with the applicable permits. Best
Management Practices (BMP's) will be employed at all stream and wetland crossings to help prevent
siltation or inadvertent discharges to a Waters of the U.S.
Stream/Wetland Crossing Methods
There are many factors that affect selection of an appropriate and constructible installation method for a
natural gas pipeline. Typical methods of installation include HDD (horizontal directional drilling),
conventional bores, and /or conventional isolation. Regulatory implications, environmental impacts, cost,
constructability, and pipeline integrity are considered during the design and maintenance of pipelines and

Pre -Construction Notification
S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
thus the selection of crossing methodology. In the upper Piedmont, topography and geology (the
presence of subsurface rock) are major factors that often contribute to making "trenchless" installation an
option that is not practicable or feasible.
The use of conventional trench construction is often the preferred method, as it allows the pipeline to be
installed at a consistent 4-5 feet depth below land surface for a far greater length when compared to
trenchless installation. Maintaining a normal depth is critical to the safety and integrity of the pipeline. As
the depth of cover increases, so does the difficulty in locating, exposing, and performing routine
maintenance required for transmission pipelines. Installation of the pipe by HDD will occur at the Second
Broad and Broad River crossings.
Typical BMPs used in connection with the stream crossings will include the following, as appropriate:
Crossings will be executed in as minimal amount of time necessary. Where possible, 24-hour
installation and restoration will occur.
Sufficient equipment to execute the crossing in an expeditious, environmentally responsible
manner will be available on site prior to initiation of the crossing.
Crossings will be conducted during anticipated low flow conditions.
Local weather conditions will be monitored such that, to the extent possible, stormwater events
will be avoided during and immediately following installation of the pipe.
The crossings will be monitored during installation by personnel experienced in stream and
wetland crossing procedures, familiar with site conditions, and knowledgeable in North Carolina
environmental regulations. The monitor shall have the authority to stop work should conditions
change and additional or different measures be needed. This professional will be on-site from the
initiation (preparatory stages) through to the completion (e.g. implementation of the restoration
plan).
Sufficient qualified staffing will be maintained for the project duration such that compliance
monitoring activities associated with pipeline installation in other locations do not take
precedence over crossings.
The upstream and downstream crossing points will be sealed to isolate the crossing for pipeline
installation "in the dry." Clean steel plates, sand bags, or similar measures will be inserted to
temporarily dam the flow. Steel plates will be cleaned prior to use on streams using
biodegradable products or heat. On both sides of the installed plates (both upstream and
downstream) sandbags will additionally be placed to secure the plates, reinforce the damming of
water, and provide a secondary barrier to seepage. The excavated trench will be monitored for
groundwater intrusion and, if noted, excess water will be pumped to a discharge site located 50'-
100' from the top of bank of the receiving stream. Discharged water from the trench will be
filtered through an appropriate E&SC measure.
Where possible, the top 6-12 inches of streambed substrate will be stockpiled separately from the
subgrade material and kept saturated during the installation.
Pumps shall be obtained and staged prior to executing the crossing. Back-up pumps shall be
kept on-site should the primary pump(s) malfunction, or to control high flows. All pumps will
have screened intakes and will be placed in secondary -containment for the duration of the
installation. In the event an unforeseen weather event occurs during installation, pumps near the
crossing will be monitored 24 -hours a day until normal flow conditions are present.

Pre -Construction Notification S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
Pump flow rates will be monitored to ensure adequate flow is achieved such that water neither
accumulates behind the upstream dam nor is discharged too rapidly on the downstream side. At
the downstream discharge location, flow discharge rates shall be controlled such that scouring of
the stream bed and/or banks does not occur. Efforts will be made to aerate the water prior to its
downstream discharge into the receiving stream.
Removal of in -stream control devices will be conducted in such a manner as to allow a gradual re-
introduction of flowing water into the channel.
Banks will be restored in a careful manner, achieving pre -construction contours to the extent
practical.
A cover crop and specialized riparian seed mix will be applied for the entire length of banks
disturbed by the crossing. Coir matting with appropriate shear strength will additionally be
installed to anchor the seeding and the banks.
Stream crossings will be monitored for stability following construction and for the duration of the
pipeline construction. Restoration will be considered complete when herbaceous vegetation
reaches 80 -percent coverage.
Where HDD methodology is employed, the crossing will be monitored in the event an inadvertent
return of drilling fluid occurs. All such occurrences that affect jurisdictional waters will be
immediately contained using hay bales or other similar physical barrier, remediated to the extent
practical, and reported to the USACE within 48 -hours of detection. Please note that in the event
an inadvertent release occurs outside of the proposed construction corridor, additional
coordination with land -owners, regulatory agents, contractors, etc. may be required, and cleanup
will be initiated as soon as possible.
All disturbed areas within wetlands or on stream banks will be seeded with a customized seed mix. For
wetlands, seed mix application will extend 10 -feet landward of the jurisdictional boundary; for streams,
seed mix application will extend at least 10 -feet landward of the top of bank. Stream banks temporarily
affected by trenching or placement of equipment bridges will be stabilized with a native seed mix
specifically designed for riparian areas, and will be stabilized with biodegradable coir matting. Affected
wetland areas will be seeded with a native wetland seed mix; however, no heavy mulching will occur
within wetlands.
Proposed Project Impacts
Project -wide wetland impacts are summarized in Table 1 below:
fable 1: Summary of Project -wide Wetland Impacts
ImpactsWetland
Temporary Impacts Permanent Conversion Permanent Fill Placement
0.201 0.148 0.000
Total, project -wide construction of the project will result in impacts to 0.349 acre of wetlands. Of these
impacts, 0.201 acre will be temporary, and 0.148 acres will be permanent conversion. The permanent
impacts will result from conversion of forested wetlands to emergent wetlands within new permanent
right-of-way through periodic mowing. The temporary wetland impacts associated with the project will
occur as a result of trench excavation, temporary side casting of material and placement of timber mats

Pre -Construction Notification S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
for the equipment crossings. Forested wetland areas that are cleared within temporary workspaces will be
permitted to revegetate back to their original condition, and are thus considered temporary disturbance
impacts and not permanent conversion impacts. It should be noted that temporary workspace (TWS) has
been reduced at stream and wetland crossings to the extent practicable. Impacts associated with each
individually -identified wetland area within the proposed project disturbance limits are identified in
Appendix VI and depicted on the figures in Appendix V.
The project will result in impacts to 1,012 If of jurisdictional streams. These impacts are broken down by
type in Table 2 below:
Table 2: Summary of Project -wide Stream Impacts
Pipeline Construction Activities/Crossings
Temporary Permanent
1,012 0
As indicated, a majority of the impacts are associated with placement of equipment bridges and isolation
crossing methods (clean water bypass via dam -and -pump or dam -and -flume) around a segment of bank
that will be excavated to accommodate placement of the pipe.
Following construction, disturbed wetlands within the permanent easement will be vegetated with
herbaceous cover, while those within the TWS will be seeded and allowed to return to a forested
condition. Affected portions of the streams will be reconstructed to their pre -disturbance dimension and
profile, and stabilized using coir matting and vegetative plantings, without use of riprap or hard armoring,
unless such material was their prior to construction. Typical stream and wetland crossings details are
included in Appendix VI of this submittal.
Avoidance and Minimization
To avoid and minimize impacts to waters of the U.S. within the project corridor, PSNC proposes to install
the new gas pipeline adjacent to an existing, maintained utility easement to the extent practicable.
The total width of the work area has been reduced to 65 feet at stream and wetland crossings, which is
required to safely install the 20 -inch pipe. Where streams are trenched for pipe installation,
sedimentation impacts will be minimized through the use of the dry -ditch construction methods, such as
bypass pumping though silt bags or temporary de -watering structures, or by use of dam and flumes.
Wetland impacts will be minimized during construction through the use of equipment mats at crossings
and trench plugs to prevent alterations to wetland hydrology.
Additionally, construction equipment operating within the wetland will be limited to that equipment
necessary for clearing, excavation, pipe installation and restoration activities. Wetland vegetation will be
cut at ground level, leaving existing root systems in place to promote re -growth. To the extent
practicable, wetland topsoil will be segregated from the underlying subsoil in areas disturbed by
trenching, except in areas with standing water or saturated soils, or where no topsoil is evident.

PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
It should be noted that the HDD entrance location has been established in an area where a stream and
wetland will be temporarily impacted within a proposed work area that exceeds 65 feet in width. The
necessity to locate the drill point at this location is based on constructability and safety concerns. The
topography in this area presents many obstacles, and in this preferred location, PSNC can better utilize
the existing upslope topography for safer constructability. Prior to recommending the proposed HDD
route, the following two options were considered:
Option 1: Move the location closer to the river. In this option, the exit location would need to be
shifted 500 feet toward the river to the closest flat area. To maintain adequate pipe cover under the
river, the exit angle would need to be increased to 16 degrees, which exceeds the maximum design
exit angle of 12 degrees. This increased exit angle would require a drill pullback string lift height of
approximately 37 feet to avoid stressing the pipe. To further complicate the constructability of pulling
the pipe in the bored hole, the topography drops off sharply toward the river. Standard practice for
pulling the pipe into the bore hole is on flat topography or an upslope. This downslope option is the
exact opposite situation, and presents the aforementioned constructability and safety concerns.
Option 2: Move the location farther away from the river. This option would add additional footage to
the drill, and would require setup too close to the power transmission lines. This would also encroach
on a large area with dwarf flowered heartleaf plants that would pose additional environmental issues.
Also, this option would require re-routing the proposed pipeline easement in order to tie-in to the
new HDD exit location. This option adds more risk, cost, and safety concern near powerlines.
As indicated, the proposed location of the HDD exit is the only practicable alternative. Measures will be
undertaken to limit the temporary impacts to the stream and wetland at this location. The reach of
stream located within the footprint of the exit pad will be piped, and construction mats placed atop the
wetland and piped stream. Following completion of the drill, the affected stream and wetland area will be
restored in accordance with the project's restoration plan.
Additional Regulatory Considerations
The project will comply with all applicable conditions of NWP 12 and WQC 4086, with the exception of
those noted previously. The width of the TWS and the permanent easement will not exceed 65 feet at
wetland and stream crossings. The proposed alignment makes use of existing easement to the maximum
extent practicable. As mentioned, PSNC has endeavored to install the new pipe adjacent to an existing
utility easement.
All stream work will be performed "in the dry" by isolating the work area through use of dam and pump -
around or dam and flume systems. Following construction, stream and wetland crossings will be restored
to original grade and contour. The proposed project will not result in permanent changes in pre -
construction elevation contours or stream dimension, pattern or profile. Excess material will be removed
to a high ground disposal area. Affected wetland areas will be restored in accordance with the attached
Restoration Plan (Appendix VII) following completion of the work. An Inadvertent Returns Contingency
Plan to account for potential releases associated with the proposed HDDs has also been included in
Appendix VII.

PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
Based on our experience with similar projects involving impacts authorized under NWP No. 12, it is our
understanding that pipeline construction impacts to streams and emergent wetlands will be considered
temporary if these areas are restored to original pre -construction contours once construction is
completed, and do not involve the permanent placement of hard armor in streams.
Federally -Protected Species
To comply with applicable sections of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 (16 USC 1531-1543),
S&ME initially consulted with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the North Carolina Natural
Heritage Program (NCNHP). S&ME provided scoping packages to the USFWS and the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) on December 14, 2016. The scoping packages included
depictions of the route overlain on the appropriate USGS topographic maps and aerial photographs in
digital format, along with a Google Earth' kmz file of the proposed alignment. The scoping packages
requested that each agency review records they may have had relating to rare, endangered, or threatened
species, or high quality natural communities within the vicinity of the project corridor, and provide
comment. S&ME also consulted the NCNHP GIS database Virtual Workroom and Element Occurrence
(EO) Database, and received a report on December 15, 2016.
The list of NCNHP records relating to rare, listed species, significant natural communities or habitat
areas/managed conservation lands identified the following federally -protected element occurrences
within one mile of the project route:
EO ID Nos. 15583 and 26982: Dwarf -flowered heartleaf (Hexastylis naniflora) — federally threatened
The report also identified multiple occurrences of state -listed species, but none that carry federal
protection. The report did not identify significant natural communities or habitat areas/managed
conservation lands within a one -mile radius of the project route.
The NCWRC responded with a January 5, 2017, letter that also listed dwarf -flowered heartleaf as a
potential concern, along with northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis), and a number of state -
listed species. The NCWRC recommended project consultation with the USFWS.
The USFWS responded with a February 6, 2017 letter confirming that the project area likely contains
suitable habitat for the federally threatened dwarf -flowered heartleaf, and that there are multiple
occurrence records for this plant within close proximity to the proposed project site. The USFWS
recommended that a formal survey for dwarf -flowered heartleaf be conducted at the project site to
ensure that this species is not inadvertently lost.
The FWS further stated that project site also contains potential suitable habitat for northern long-eared
bat (Myotis septentrionalis), which is currently federally listed as a threatened species, and that clearing of
trees for construction of the project could impact suitable maternity roost trees. However, no known
maternity roosts or hibernacula sites are within 25 miles of the project site. According to the new 4(d) rule
implemented for the listing of northern long-eared bat, a cutting moratorium of June 1 -July 31 should be
observed within areas of habitat for this species. Because: 1) the project site is over 25 -miles away from
the nearest known occurrence; and 2) there is a large amount of suitable habitat in close proximity to the
site and in the surrounding area, we believe the probability of "take" that could occur from this project is

Pre -Construction Notification S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
discountable. The USFWS recommended that the cutting moratorium of June 1 -July 31 be implemented
into the plans if possible.
The NCNHP and NCWRC correspondence is included in Appendix VIII.
Following the agency scoping and literature review, S&ME conducted pedestrian reviews for terrestrial
species along the project corridor. During the field reconnaissance, the approximate project centerline
was identified as the existing gas line easement. In areas of greenfield development, the centerline was
identified either via a surveyed cut line or by means of a global positioning system (GPS) device. S&ME
personnel then spread out perpendicular to the center line and walked parallel meandering transects
within the corridor. In areas meeting the habitat requirements for protected species (i.e., presence of
associate species, correct slope aspect, known soil types, etc.), multiple additional transects or grid
transects were walked to adequately review the area. In areas that did not exhibit known habitat
characteristics for the target species, S&ME personnel used a spot-check methodology, looking for
potential microhabitats. If protected species were positively identified during the review, a GPS data point
was recorded and photographs and notes were taken. The same procedure was followed when S&ME
could not positively identify the species (e.g., due to absence of key identifying floral features), but
suspected that it may be protected.
During field visits on April 3 and April 10, 2017, S&ME personnel identified two populations of H. naniflora
within the proposed project corridor. Approximately 119 plant clusters were identified within the survey
area of the two populations. Approximately 17 of these clusters are located within the disturbance
footprint of the proposed project.
Through coordination with the FWS, S&ME prepared a June 23, 2017 Mitigation Plan for the H. naniflora,
a copy of which was also provided to the USACE. The plan entails transplanting the 17 affected clusters
out of the disturbance footprint and into undisturbed portions of the adjacent property among the
remaining population. Please refer to the June 23, 2017 report for additional details. A copy of the
September 1, 2017 USFWS email approval is included in Appendix VIII.
Although the project is located in the vicinity of several other populations that have been documented
and mapped on property owned by Duke Energy, no additional H. naniflora or other federally -protected
species were observed within the corridor during the site visits, or during wetland delineation efforts
conducted separately.
Historic and Cultural Resources
S&ME submitted an agency scoping letter to the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO)
on December 15, 2016. The SHPO responded in a January 23, 2017 letter stating that they were aware of
no historic resources that would be affected by the project, and had no further comment.
A copy of the SHPO correspondence is included in Appendix VIII.
Sediment and Erosion Control
A separate Erosion and Sedimentation Control (E&SC) Plan will be prepared and submitted to the North

PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
(NCDENR-DEMLR). The E&SC plan will specify the appropriate E&SC and Best Management Practices
(BMPs) outlined in the most recent version of the "North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning
and Design Manual." Through early cooperation and planning with NCDENR-DEMLR staff, PSNC and
S&ME are currently designing an E&SC plan to employ numerous measures that meet or exceed
specifications governing the proper design, installation, operation, and maintenance of E&SC measures
and BMPs. The E&SC plan will be submitted to NCDENR — DEMLR, and approval received prior to
initiation of construction.
Construction supervisors directing crews responsible for installation and maintenance of erosion control
measures will be experienced in North Carolina E&SC measures, pipeline construction as it relates to
E&SC measures and BMPs, and will be responsible for completing the required NCDENR — DWR self -
inspection forms. These forms will be completed for disturbed areas at least once per 7 calendar days and
within 24 hours of a rainfall event greater than 0.5 inch per 24-hour period. Multiple rain gauges will be
located along the construction corridor and monitored daily.
Per current NCDENR guidance, areas disturbed during clearing or construction operations will be
temporarily or permanently seeded and mulched when construction activities will not occur within a
period of 7 or 14 days on a particular section of the pipeline.
Waterbars will be spaced at appropriate intervals based on existing slope. Sediment tubes (Filtrexx
FilterSoxx, or Engineer approved equivalent) will be spaced at similar intervals in areas where construction
occurs within, or partially within, existing natural gas easements. Due to the presence of 1 or more
existing below -ground natural gas pipelines, mass grading above the existing lines is not feasible, so the
denuded portion of these areas should be limited to the pipeline trench and areas immediately adjacent
to it. Water bars and sediment tubes will be installed at the base of slopes up -gradient of streams or
wetlands.
Silt fence will be installed along the top -of -bank at streams and at wetland boundaries maintaining a 10 -
foot buffer between the silt fence and the jurisdictional feature. Silt fence will be installed such that it, in
combination with other measures approaching streams and wetlands, dissipates and directs flow away
from the crossing. Additionally, sediment tubes or wattles will be utilized at stream and wetland crossings
to provide a sediment barrier that can be temporarily removed to allow equipment access to bridges or
timber mats. Dewatering of trenches within streams and wetlands will be discharged through a filter bag
or other temporary E&SC control structure.
Construction activities within wetlands will be conducted from timber mats. Where clearing operations
occur in wetlands, low ground pressure equipment will be used in areas beyond those protected by
timber mats. Construction activities within streams will be conducted "in the dry" through the use of
either flumes or a pump -around bypass. Temporary spoil piles associated with stream crossings will be
set back a minimum of 10 feet from the top of bank and protected with a row of silt fence on the down -
gradient portions of the stockpile. Temporary bridges will be utilized at stream crossings so that
equipment can safely cross the stream. Bridges will be wrapped in geotextile fabric and have plywood
sideboards to prevent sediment from entering the stream being crossed.

Pre -Construction Notification
S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061
PSNC Cliffside Pipeline Project October 27, 2017
Mitigation
A majority of the proposed project impacts are temporary. Streams and wetlands affected by installation
of the pipe within the existing easement will be restored to their original grade and contour upon
completion of the work. In addition, approximately 0.148 acre of forested wetlands will be converted to
herbaceous wetlands due to construction of the maintenance corridor.
As such, project -wide "mitigatable" impacts are limited to 0.148 acre of wetlands. The project will not
result in permanent stream impacts. Accordingly, we do not anticipate that purchase of stream mitigation
credit through a private bank or in -lieu fee program will be required.
PSNC proposes to purchase the appropriate amount of wetland mitigation credit (0.25 acre) from the NC
Division of Mitigation Services (DCM) in the Upper Broad River Basin (HUC 03050105). An acceptance
letter that has been provided by DCM is included in Appendix VIII.
General mitigation has also been provided by avoidance and minimization procedures implemented
during the design phase of the proposed project. Impacts to streams and wetlands within the project
corridor will be minimized by: 1) extensive installation of the pipe adjacent to an existing, maintained
easement; 2) reduction of impacts within new greenfield easement through avoidance; 3) Use of
trenchless crossing methodology where feasible; and 4) by reducing temporary workspace through
wetlands and streams.
SEPA Compliance
The proposed project does not involve use of public monies or state-owned land. As such, it does not
require preparation of an environmental document under the State Environmental Policy Act.

Jurisdictional Determination Request
F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One)
❑� I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminarX 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.
G. ALL REQUESTS

E. REVIEW PERFORMED FOR SITE EVALUATION (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY):
❑ Office (Desk) Determination. Date:
❑ Field Determination. Date(s): February and April 2017

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 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:

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:
A majority of the work will parallel an existing, maintained powerline easement. Poritons of the project will also consist of
greenfield development. General land use in the vicinity of the project corridor consists of a mix of low density residential
areas, agriculture, pasture, and forest. Portions of the project corridor are also located on the Duke Energy power plant.
3b.
List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
— 0.4 Acres of wetlands and open waters in the project area.
3c.
List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
— 1,000 LF of perennial and intermittent streams are located within the project area.
3d.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The primary purpose of the proposed project is to supply the Cliffside plant with natural gas via a pipeline that is
compatible with current federally -mandated safety and inspection requirements.
3e.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
Construction of the new pipeline will first involve demarcation of clearing limits, jurisdictional boundaries, and other
associated workspaces etc. In high ground areas, up to an additional 50 feet of temporary workspace (TWS) adjacent to
the existing easement will be required to safely install the new pipe. At stream and wetland crossings, the TWS will be
reduced to 15 feet, and the remainder of the work will be conducted within the permanent easement. Appropriate
sediment and erosion control (S&EC) measures will be installed as clearing proceeds to prevent sedimentation of
jurisdictional features.
No grubbing or below -ground vegetation removal will occur within wetlands or along stream banks outside of the
construction corridor. Where the pipe will be installed by conventional means (e.g. 'open -trench" or "isolation"), grubbing
will be limited, to the extent practicable, to the trench line. Select upland portions of the easement may require rough
grading to facilitate safe passage of equipment, and to prepare a suitably -level work surface. Within wetland areas where
extensive rutting or soil disturbance may occur, timber mats are planned for use to provide work and travel space for
equipment.
Following preparation of the work area and installation of necessary S&EC measures, the trench will be excavated along
the "non -working" side of the easement. Subsurface disturbance will only be conducted within the trench line at wetlands
and stream crossings. Stump removal or light grading may occur on the working side of the easement if required for
safety reasons. The work will be performed from the timber mats placed along the working side of the easement. In
certain areas, including wetlands and fields supporting crops, efforts will be made to segregate topsoil from the subsoil. If
necessary, trench breakers (temporary barriers generally constructed of sand bags or similarly suitable material) will be
installed within the trench to slow the flow of subsurface water.
In general, approximately 40 -foot lengths of the 20 -inch pipe will then be trucked to the site from temporary storage yards,
strung along the easement and placed on skids (wooden pedestals). Specialized machines will be used to bend
individual segments of pipe to fit the contours of the trench where necessary. The pipe segments will be welded together,
x-rayed, and inspected coating and structural integrity, and then lowered into the trench. Segments of the trench may
require dewatering or "padding" to prevent large rocks or other debris from coming in contact with the pipe. Permanent
trench breakers will then be installed where necessary and the trench backfilled. In areas where segregation of the
subsoil and topsoil is required, the topsoil will be replaced last. Affected areas will then be "cleaned up" by rough -grading
and temporary seeding (if necessary), followed by final grading, permanent seeding and mulching to restore the
easement as closely as possible to pre -disturbance contours and conditions.

Subject: Survey Notification Cleveland County
PIN No. 2057
Tract No. CL -001.000
Dear PAMELA B. GOODE, HILDA B. BARNWELL, AND ERNEST C. BYARS:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you that our company, Public Service of North Carolina ("PSNC
Energy"), will begin working on a project in the area soon that may affect your property. As a courtesy, we wanted
to let you know ahead of time. The project consists of installing a new natural gas pipeline to facilitate the upgrades
at the Rogers Energy Complex in Cleveland and Rutherford counties. The pipeline will run from Trinity Church Road,
near Mooresboro and parallel, where feasible, an existing Duke Energy power line right of way to the plant site.
PSNC Energy plans to survey this route in the near future to establish the precise location and identify any
temporary work space or right-of-way that will be required on individual properties. In order to complete the
mapping for the survey within its corridor, our surveyors may need to locate the following on your property:
corners, overhead and underground utilities; buildings, permanent structures as well as environmentally and
culturally sensitive areas. Also, please see enclosures describing these activities. The enclosed map shows the
proposed survey corridor, which is within close proximity to, crosses, or touches your property.
We want to be sure you know about our survey plans at least 30 days ahead of our project's start to ensure
our compliance with Chapter 40A of the North Carolina General Statutes. Also, in the near future, a real estate
professional representing PSNC Energy will contact you as a follow-up to this letter. After the surveying work is
completed, the real estate professional will contact you to discuss purchasing any temporary work space or right-
of-way that may be needed on your property.
Our goal throughout this project is to minimize any inconvenience to you through the survey process and
all other phases. As an added communication measure, we will also attempt to contact you by telephone in the
coming days. If you have any questions or concerns about the survey or land acquisition process, you may contact
our project team at [phone]. You may also find more information at www.psncenergy.com/pipeline.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Sincerely yours,
Christine Faragalla

THE FOLLOWING IS A SEQUENCE OF CONSTRUCTION AND MIGRATION MEASURES TO BE FOLLOWED AT ALL TEMPORARY I III
BRIDGE CROSSINGS.
1, A PRE -FABRICATED BRIDGE OR FLATBED RAILCAR, FLEXI-FLOAT OR FLUMED VEHICLE CROSSING MAY BE
SUBSTITUTED FOR THE TEMPORARY BRIDGE.
2. INSTALL THE BRIDGE IN A MANNER THAT WILL MINIMIZE SEDIMENT ENTERING THE WATER. STRINGERS MUST BE
DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE LOADS EXPECTED ON THE BRIDGE. CURBS AT LEAST 6 -INCH HIGH MUST BE INSTALLED
ALONG THE EDGE OF THE DECK TO CONTAIN SEDIMENT AND DEBRIS ON THE BRIDGE. FASTENERS CONNECTING
COMPONENTS MUST BE STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THEM IN POSITION DURING THE LIFE OF THE BRIDGE.
TEMPORARY CRIB ABUTMENTS MAY BE FILLED WITH ROCK OR COBBLE, OR MAY BE SOLID TIMBER ROTATED 90
DEGREES IN ALTERNATIVE LAYERS. RIP -RAP EROSION PROTECTION IS TO BE PLACED AROUND THE CRIBS AND ON
ANY FILL SLOPES PROJECTING INTO THE WATER, IF SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZED BY PERMIT.

3. ROAD APPROACHES LEADING TO THE BRIDGE MUST BE RAISED AND STABLE SO EQUIPMENT LOADS ARE SUPPORTED
A SUFFICIENT DISTANCE BACK FROM THE WATER TO REDUCE POTENTIAL SEDIMENT AND DEBRIS ENTERING THE
STREAM FROM EQUIPMENT TRACKS. DO NOT USE SOIL TO CONSTRUCT OR STABILIZE EQUIPMENT BRIDGES. IF CUTS
ARE NEEDED TO OBTAIN A SATISFACTORY GRADE, THEY ARE TO BE EXCAVATED WITH SIDE DITCHES AND STABLE

SILT FENCING, FILTER CLOTH, RIP -RAP, SEED AND MULCH, ETC.).

Appendix VII - General Restoration and Inadvertent Returns
Contingency Plans

GENERAL RESTORATION PLAN
PSNC Cliffside Lateral Project
Cleveland and Rutherford Counties, North Carolina
The proposed project has been designed to avoid and minimize jurisdictional impacts where practicable. As part
of mitigation for unavoidable impacts, the following plan shall be implemented to restore temporarily -affected
wetlands and streams. This plan entails restoration of temporarily -disturbed areas to their original contours and
conditions to the degree practicable upon project completion. No fills or spoils of any kind will be permanently
placed within wetlands or along the stream banks. Further, disturbed wetland areas and streambanks will be
permanently stabilized with a native vegetative cover. The measures outlined below will be specified in the
contract documents prepared for construction of the proposed project.
Proposed restoration activities will include the removal of placed fill material and restoration of original pre -
disturbance contours. Excavated material shall be returned to the trench to the extent possible, and remaining
material relocated and retained on an upland site. Excavated topsoil will be stockpiled separately, kept viable,
and then replaced uniformly over the area of excavation from which it was removed. The native seed mix
identified in Table 1 below will be utilized within temporarily -disturbed streambanks and riparian areas.

INADVERTANT RETURN CONTINGENCY PLAN
PSNC Cliffside Lateral Project
Cleveland and Rutherford Counties, North Carolina
Introduction
Prior to initiating construction activities, PSNC will confirm that the construction contractor and involved
personnel are made aware of and understand the permit and its requirements, including relevant special
conditions of the permit, monitoring of the project required by the permit, implementation of the
Contingency Plan and implementation of Best Management Practices (BMP) during phases of
construction that are designed to prevent release of sediment or deleterious substances into the creek.
Additionally, jurisdictional boundaries of the wetlands within the project area will be demarcated in the
field. As excavation of the drill pits will not occur in the wetlands, silt fencing will be established around
the work areas by the contractor prior to any other land disturbing activities on site.
Monitoring
Monitoring the project site during all phases of construction will be conducted by the contractor and
PSNC. The contractor will visually inspect the project site twice daily (AM & PM) for compliance with
BMPs, monitor that work is proceeding as permitted, conditions are such that problems are not
anticipated, and an inadvertent return of drilling mud has not occurred. The contractor will also monitor
the project site during drilling operations. Inspection logs will be maintained on-site, and will contain the
date and time of inspections and will note problems, potential problems or other items of interest.
Actions occurring on-site that cause problems with the work, or a temporary stop in work, will be noted in
the log. Daily photographs will also document the progress of work, the integrity of sediment control
measures and compliance with permit conditions.
Stop Work
Upon discovery of an inadvertent return by the contractor, or notification to PSNC that the release of
material or deleterious matter with potential for impacts to the creek or wetlands has occurred, the
contractor will immediately stop work. An exception to an immediate cessation of construction activities
may be warranted if such stoppage could result in unsafe conditions for workers on-site, or if stopping
work would risk loss of the drill hole, or potentially result in more harm to the environment than
continuing work. However, containment of such a release will immediately occur.
Containment
The contractor will immediately implement measures to contain the release of sediment or other
deleterious substance into the creek or wetlands. Containment measures may include silt fencing and
sediment tube installation.
Contact
Once an inadvertent return is discovered by the contractor, PSNC shall notify the United States Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR) within 24 hours.

Inadvertent Returns Contingency Plan
PSNC Cliffside Lateral Project
Clean Up and Restoration
Page 2
The contractor and PSNC will coordinate with the USACE and DWR to determine the most effective
method of cleaning up the affected area(s) and appropriate methods for disposing of sediment or
deleterious substance, and the most effective and efficient means of restoring the site, including
stabilizing and re -vegetating as appropriate.

FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE
Asheville Field Office
160 Zillicoa Street
Asheville, North Carolina 28801
February 6, 2017
Mr. Joey Lawler
S&ME, Inc.
9751 Southern Pine Boulevard
Charlotte, North Carolina 28273
Dear Mr. Lawler:
Subject: Federally Listed Species Assessment, PSNC Energy's (PSNC) Proposed 6.8 -Mile
Cliffside Lateral Pipeline Project, located in Rutherford, and Cleveland Counties,
North Carolina (S&ME Project No. 7335-16-061)
Dear Mr. Lawler:
On December 21, 2016, we received (via e-mail) a copy of your Information Request letter
requesting our review and comments on the subject project. We have reviewed the information
you presented and are providing the following comments in accordance with the provisions of
the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C.§4321 et seq.) (NEPA); the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 661-667e), and section 7 of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act).
According to the information that you presented, PSNC is proposing to construct about 6.8 -miles
of 16 -inch diameter steel natural gas transmission pipeline. The proposed gas transmission line
route begins at the existing T-01 Gas Line and ends at the Rogers Energy Complex, in Cliffside,
operated by Duke Energy. The gas pipeline will be located in a new 50 -foot wide easement. An
additional 25 -foot wide area along the easement will be necessary for a temporary workspace to
accommodate construction. The gas pipeline will cross multiple streams and possibly wetlands.
Your letter indicates that the gas pipeline crossings of the Broad River and Second Broad River
will be installed using horizontal directional drilling (HDD). However, your letter did not include
specific information regarding additional aquatic resource crossings/impacts associated with the

gas pipeline construction. The purpose of the project is to provide natural gas to the Rogers
Energy Complex.
Federally Listed Species. There appears to be suitable habitat for the federally threatened
dwarf -flowered heartleaf (Hexastylis naniflora) on the project site. We have multiple occurrence
records for this plant within close proximity to the proposed project site. We recommend that a
formal survey for dwarf -flowered heartleaf be conducted at the project site to ensure that this
species is not inadvertently lost. In accordance with the Act, it is the responsibility of the
appropriate federal agency or its designated representative to review its activities or programs
and to identify any such activities or programs that may affect endangered or threatened species
or their habitats. If it is determined that the proposed activity may adversely affect any species
federally listed as endangered or threatened, formal consultation with this office must be
initiated.
The project site also contains potential suitable habitat for northern long-eared bat (Myotis
septentrionalis), which is currently federally listed as a threatened species. The clearing of trees
for construction of the project, staging areas, easements, etc. could impact suitable maternity
roost trees for northern long-eared bats. However, no known maternity roosts or hibemacula
sites are within 25 miles of the project site. According to the new 4(d) rule implemented for the
listing of northern long-eared bat, a cutting moratorium of June I -July 31 should be observed
within areas of habitat for this species. Because: 1) the project site is over 25 -miles away from
the nearest known occurrence; and 2) there is a large amount of suitable habitat in close
proximity to the site and in the surrounding area, we believe the probability of "take" that could
occur from this project is discountable. We recommend the cutting moratorium of June I -July
31 be implemented into the plans if possible. Though a "not likely to adversely affect"
determination would not be dependent on this action, the cutting moratorium is a measure that
can be implemented to further reduce the probability of "take" of this species. Thus, we believe
the requirements for northern long-eared bat under section 7 of the Act are fulfilled. However,
obligations under section 7 of the Act must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals
impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not
previously considered, (2) this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not
considered in this review, or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat is determined that may
be affected by the identified action.
Utility Line Crossings. In the interest of reducing impacts to natural resources, utility crossings
(i.e., sewer, gas, and water lines) should be kept to a minimum, and all utility infrastructure
(including manholes) should be kept out of riparian buffer areas. If a utility crossing is
necessary, we recommend that you first consider the use of directional boring. PSNC is
proposing to cross the Broad River and Second Broad River using HDD. We recommend that
every stream crossing associated with the project be assessed for HDD installation.
If directional boring cannot be used and trenching is determined to be the only viable method,
every effort should be made to ensure that impacts to in -stream features are minimized and stable
upon completion of the project. Our past experiences with open -trench crossings indicate that
this technique increases the likelihood for future lateral movement of the stream (which could
2

undercut or erode around the utility line), and the correction of such problems could result in
costly future maintenance and devastating impacts to natural resources. Therefore, as much
work as possible should be accomplished in the dry, and the amount of disturbance should not
exceed what can be successfully stabilized by the end of the workday. In -stream work should
avoid the spring fish -spawning season and should consider forecasted high-flow events.
Regardless of the crossing method, all utility lines should cross streams perpendicularly. We
strongly encourage that a qualified biologist monitor the work area until the work is complete in
order to identify any additional on-site impact -minimization measures. The Service may be
available to assist you in this effort. To determine if any maintenance is required, the work site
should be monitored at least every 3 months during the first 24 months and annually thereafter.
Moreover, we recommend the development of a riparian monitoring and maintenance program
that would outline procedures for the prompt stabilization of streambanks near the utility
crossing (should any streambank erosion or destabilization occur) throughout the life of this
project.
Project Recommendations - We are concerned about the introduction and spread of invasive
exotic species in association with the proposed project. Without active management, including
the revegetation of disturbed areas with native species, project corridors will likely be sources of
(and corridors for) the movement of invasive exotic plant species. Exotic species are a major
contributor to species depletion and extinction, second only to habitat loss. Exotics are a factor
contributing to the endangered or threatened status of more than 40 percent of the animals and
plants on the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants.' It is estimated
that at least 4,000 exotic plant species and 2,300 exotic animal species are now established in the
United States, costing more than $130 billion a year to control.b Additionally, the
U.S. Government has many programs and laws in place to combat invasive species (see
www.invasivespecies.gov). Specifically, Section 2(a)(3) of Executive Order 13112 - Invasive
Species (February 3, 1999) directs federal agencies to "not authorize, fund, or carry out actions
that it believes are likely to cause or promote the introduction or spread of invasive species in the
United States or elsewhere." Despite their short-term erosion -control benefits, many exotic
species used in soil stabilization seed mixes are persistent once they are established, thereby
preventing the reestablishment of native vegetation. Many of these exotic plants° are also
aggressive invaders of nearby natural areas, where they are capable of displacing
already -established native species. Therefore, we strongly recommend that only species native
to the natural communities within the project area be used in association with all aspects of this
project.
We also recommend that seeds for native plants that are beneficial to pollinators be included in
the seed mixes. Pollinators, such as most bees, some birds and bats, or other insects, including

moths and butterflies, play a crucial role in the reproduction of flowering plants and in the
production of most fruits and vegetables. Over 75 percent of flowering plants and about
75 percent of crops are pollinated by these pollinators. A recent study of the status of pollinators
in North America by the National Academy of Sciences found that populations of honey bees
(which are not native to North America) and many wild pollinators are declining. Declines in
wild pollinators are a result of loss, degradation, and fragmentation of habitat and disease; while
declines in honey bees has also been linked to disease. Because loss of habitat and diminished
native food sources have decreased the populations and diversity of pollinators throughout the
country, we recommend that development projects be sited in areas that are previously disturbed
(fallow fields, closed industrial sites, etc.) or sites that do not impact mature forests, streams, or
wetlands. To offset the overall impacts of development and/or to increase the habitat and species
diversity within the project area, we further recommend the following measures be implemented
into project design:
1. Throughout the site, sow native seed mixes with plant species that are beneficial to
pollinators. Taller -growing pollinator plant species should be planted around the
periphery of the site and anywhere on the site where mowing can be restricted during
the summer months. Taller plants, not mowed during the summer, would provide
benefits to pollinators, habitat to ground-nesting/feeding birds, and cover for small
mammals. Low-growing/groundcover native species should be planted in areas that
need to be maintained. This would provide benefits to pollinators while also
minimizing the amount of maintenance, such as mowing and herbicide treatment.
Using a seed mix that includes milkweed species (milkweed is an important host plant
for monarch butterflies) is especially beneficial. The following Web site provides a
comprehensive list of native plant species that benefit pollinators:
https: //mail.google. com/mail/u/0/#advanced-search/subject=pollinator&subset=
all&has= anita &within= l d&sizeoperator=s_sl&sizeunit=s_Smb/14j0366dba7d3bda?
projector= 1.
Additional information regarding plant species, seed mixes, and pollinator habitat
requirements can be provided upon request. Attachment 1 of this letter includes a
sample upland mix that can be used in conjunction with a fast growing erosion control
seed mix for overall soil stability and pollinator benefits.
2. Provide nesting sites for pollinator species. Different pollinators have different
needs for nesting sites. Therefore, we recommend designing the solar facility to
maintain a diverse array of habitats to accommodate varied pollinators, from
hummingbirds to butterflies to bees. Hummingbirds typically nest in trees or shrubs
while many butterflies lay eggs on specific host plants. Most bees nest in the ground
and in wood or dry plant stems. For additional information and actions that can be
taken to benefit pollinators please visit the following Web site:

Subject: Re: Cliffside Pipeline Project
Joey,
I have reviewed the proposed Mitigation Plan for Dwarf -Flowered Heartleaf that you provided on June 23,
2017. The mitigation plan is necessary due to unavoidable impacts to this species from the proposed PSNC
Cliffside Lateral Pipeline Project. I believe the mitigation plan as proposed is adequate and I agree with the
transplant methodology included in the mitigation plan. You indicated that the plants would be relocated
"approximately 30 feet from the edge of the proposed easement". I recommend that the relocated plants be
planted a minimum of 30 -feet from the edge of the easement. I also recommend that replanting locations be
assessed for suitable habitat that is void of invasive plant species. I know from your past projects that you
typically find good suitable habitat for the replantings but just wanted to throw that out there to be
sure. Further, I agree with your statement that monitoring of the relocated plants will not be necessary. As
always, I appreciate the work that you do and for consulting with us on this project. If you have any questions,
please let me know.
Thanks,

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Cliffside Pipeline Project
Ladies and gents: attached is a preliminary route of another pipeline project we will be working on next
year. It will go from the T-01 project down to the Duke plant at Cliffside, and is about 7.8 miles. We're
going to try and parallel and exiting powerline easement for most of the way. It isn't scheduled for
construction until late 2017.
PSNC has asked if we need to schedule another Pre -con agency meeting for this one. I'm thinking it is not
really necessary. I do plan on sending my usual scoping letters out to FWS, WRC and SHPO for general
comments, but unless anyone thinks otherwise, I don't really feel another meeting like the one we had for T-
01 is needed on this project.
But in any event, please let me know if you agree or disagree.
As always, thanks for your input, and happy holidays - j

Gordon Myers, Executive Director
MEMORANDUM
TO: Joey Lawler, PWS
Project Manager
S&ME
FROM: Olivia Munzer
Western Piedmont Coordinator
Habitat Conservation
DATE: 5 January 2017
SUBJECT: Request for Environmental Scoping for the PSCN Energy - Cliffside Lateral Pipeline
Project; Cleveland and Rutherford Counties, S&ME Project No. 7435-16-061.
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the subject
document. Comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination
Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667e) and North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131
et seq.).
S&ME, on behalf of PSNC Energy (PSNC), has submitted an information request to NCWRC for a
proposed 6.8 -mile segment of 16 -inch diameter steel natural gas transmission line in Rutherford and
Cleveland counties, North Carolina. According to the information provided by S&ME, the proposed
gasline will be located in a new 50 -foot wide easement with an additional 25 feet of temporary work
space for construction. The gasline project will originate west of Trinity Grove Church Road in
Mooresboro, Cleveland County (35.268065°N, 81.715901°W) and will terminate at the Rogers Energy
Complex in Cliffside, Rutherford County (35.214355°N, 81.763555°W).
The proposed gasline would cross Grog Creek, Secondary Broad River, Broad River, and their unnamed
tributaries within the Broad River basin. No protected/managed lands, conservation easements, or high-
quality natural communities occur within or adjacent to the proposed project area. Within the vicinity of
the proposed gasline, we have records for the federal species of concern and state significantly rare
Carolina foothills crayfish (Cambarus johni); and state significantly rare quillback (Carpoides cyprinus)
and seagreen darter (Etheostoma thalassinum). Records of plant species in the vicinity of the proposed
gasline include the federally threatened and state threatened dwarf -flowered heartleaf; state endangered
single -flowered sandwort (Mononeuria uniflora); state threatened horned bladderwort (Utricularia
cornuta); and state species of special concern (vulnerable) Pursh's wild -petunia (Ruellia purshiana). The
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) recently listed the northern long-eared bat (Myotis
septentrionalis) as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The northern long-eared bat may be
present or in the vicinity of the project site. As such, consultation with the USFWS may be required. For

more information, please see htlp://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/mammals/nleb/KeyFinal
4dNLEB.html or contact the USFWS at [phone] to ensure that potential issues related to
this species are addressed.
The NCWRC offers the following general recommendations to minimize impacts to aquatic and
terrestrial wildlife resources.
Wetlands and streams within the site boundaries should be identified through on-site surveys
prior to any land disturbing activities. If wetlands and/or streams will be impacted by
construction activities, then the project should be coordinated with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the N.C. Division of Water Resources.
2. If utility lines parallel any streams, the edge of the construction corridor should be located a
minimum of 100 feet from perennial stream banks and 50 feet from intermittent stream banks.
Forested riparian buffers provide habitat areas for aquatic and terrestrial wildlife species and
travel corridors for terrestrial wildlife. In addition, forested riparian buffers protect water quality
by stabilizing stream banks and filtering stormwater runoff.
3. Measures to avoid or minimize impacts to sensitive resources, including wetlands, should be
implemented during construction. In addition to providing wildlife habitat, wetland areas
perform important functions of flood control and water quality protection. Where crossings are
necessary, utility lines should cross streams and wetlands at right angles to minimize impacts.
Disturbed stream banks and wetlands should be restored to original contours and re -vegetated
with native plant materials.
4. The directional bore (installation of utilities beneath the riverbed, avoiding impacts to the stream
and buffer) stream crossing method should be used for utility crossings wherever practicable.
The open cut stream crossing method should be used only when water level is low and stream
flow is minimal.
5. Disturbed areas should be re -seeded with seed mixtures that are beneficial to wildlife. Avoid
fescue -based mixtures because fescue is invasive and provides little benefit to wildlife. Native,
annual small grains appropriate for the season are preferred and recommended. Where feasible,
use woody debris and logs from corridor clearing to establish brush piles and downed logs
adjacent to the cleared right-of-way to improve habitat for wildlife. Allowing the corridor area to
re -vegetate into a brush/scrub habitat would maximize benefits to wildlife. For areas adjacent to
residential areas, a native shrub/grass option may also be beneficial.
6. Minimize corridor maintenance and prohibit mowing between April 1 and October 1 to minimize
impacts to nesting wildlife. The NCWRC recommends a maintenance schedule that incorporates
only a portion of the area — one third of the area, for example — each year instead of the entire
project every 3 or 4 years. Avoid using herbicides in wetland areas or near streams.
7. If pesticides or chemicals will be used for site maintenance, stormwater runoff from the site
should be funneled to bio -retention areas prior to discharge to streams or wetlands. Pesticides,
fertilizers, and other chemicals should not be used in wetland areas or near streams.
8. Sediment and erosion control measures should be installed prior to any land -disturbing activity.
The use of biodegradable and wildlife -friendly sediment and erosion control devices is strongly
recommended. Silt fencing, fiber rolls and/or other products should have loose -weave netting
that is made of natural fiber materials with movable joints between the vertical and horizontal
twines. Silt fencing that has been reinforced with plastic or metal mesh should be avoided as it
impedes the movement of terrestrial wildlife species. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have
