Ms. Higgins and Messrs. Roden-Reynolds, Johnson, and Hamstead, Enclosed is a request for Nationwide Permits # 18 and 29 for the approximately 61.8-acre site known as the Oak Springs Road Subdivision site located northeast of the intersection of Oak Springs Road and Strand Lane in Indian Trail, NC. The site is a proposed residential development and consists of five streams, three wetlands, and one open water pond. The site was field-verified by the USACE (Bryan Roden-Reynolds) on 2/26/2019. Please refer to the Jurisdictional Determination section for updates to the Jurisdictional Determination/delineation. Please refer to the Approvals/Authorizations section for a copy of the provided Notice of Jurisdictional Determination (SAW-2019-00104). As shown on the attached exhibits, the proposed project will include permanent impacts to three streams, one wetland and one open water pond for road crossing access, construction of stormwater control measures and grading. Total loss to Waters of the US include 119 linear feet of impacts to streams, 0.236 acres of impact to wetlands and 0.0237 acres of impact to an open water pond. Impacts to site surface waters associated with the proposed development were 2 limited through site selection location, design, location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes. 2:1 slopes have been implemented to limit impacts to site surface waters. The applicant has demonstrated substantial avoidance and minimization efforts in which 94% of onsite streams will be avoided. To compensate for the anticipated permanent impacts to onsite wetlands, the applicant is proposing payment to the North Carolina Division of Mitigation Services In-Lieu Fee Program at a 2:1 ratio for 0.236 acres of impact to Wetland B. No mitigation is proposed for impacts associated with the onsite pond and, due to the limited amount of stream impacts proposed, no stream mitigation is proposed. Also enclosed is a copy of our Threatened/Endangered Species Evaluation for the site. No listed species were identified within the project area and we believe that there will be no effect on listed species, or their critical habitat as designated under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. Please refer to the Threatened and Endangered Species Evaluation Section for additional details on the terrestrial species evaluation. Thank you for your consideration and please contact me if you have any questions, (336) 554-2728 or email at daniel.kuefler@wetlands-epg.com.

Gaffney March 28, 2019 Oak Springs Road – Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation 2 GENERAL LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION: The Oak Springs Road project is +/- 61.8 acres located just southwest of Oak Springs Road, and just northwest of Strand Lane in Union County, North Carolina. It can be found on the Matthews, NC USGS Topographic Quadrangle Map; latitude is 35.0964 N, longitude is -80.6574 W. The site is a mosaic of disturbed forest cover, cropland, large cow pastures, farm roads, fencerows, farm buildings, and residential property with typical landscaping. The wooded areas are associated with upland slopes in the southern portion of the site, and the floodplain woodlands along North Fork Crooked Creek which runs through the northern portion of the site. The topography is moderately sloped with the elevation ranging from 660 to 670 ft. (Figure 1). Figure 1: Oak Springs Road – Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation 3 METHODOLOGY: The US Fish and Wildlife Service website http://www.fws.gov/raleigh/species/cntylist/union.html was referenced to determine the occurrence of Threatened, Endangered and Protected species for Union County North Carolina, the results of which are listed below (Table 1). Maps and aerial photographs were assembled, and the site was investigated during the week of March 11, 2019 Table 1: Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species listed for Union County County: Union, NC *Source: US Fish & Wildlife Service **Data search on March 11, 2019 Group Name Status Clams Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) Endangered Flowering Plants Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) Endangered Flowering Plants Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii) Endangered Birds Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) Protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act Oak Springs Road – Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation 4 PROTECTED SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS: Two plant species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in Union County: • Schweinitz’s Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), listed as Federally Endangered, is typically found in open habitats which historically have been maintained by wildfires and grazing bison and elk herds. Now most occurrences are limited to roadsides, woodland and field edges, and utility rights-of-way (ROW). • Michaux’s Sumac (Rhus michauxii), listed as Federally Endangered, requires habitat of sandy forests and woodland edges. This species requires periodic fire as a part of its ecology. Two animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in Union County: • Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, typically inhabits forested areas near large bodies of open water such as lakes, marshes, seacoasts and rivers, where there are suitable fish populations and tall trees for nesting and roosting. • Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), listed as Federally Endangered, is restricted to cool, clean, well-oxygenated water. Stable, silt- free stream beds are required for this species. Typically stable areas occur where the stream banks are well-vegetated with trees and shrubs. RESULTS: The site is a mosaic of disturbed forest cover, cropland, large cow pastures, farm roads, fencerows, farm buildings, and residential property with typical landscaping. The wooded areas are associated with upland slopes in the southern portion of the site, and the floodplain woodlands along North Fork Crooked Creek which runs through the northern portion of the site. The northern section of the property is dominated by the lowland woods, wetlands and floodplain of North Fork Crooked Creek. The Natural Community Type in this area is a Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest. It is relatively disturbed from frequent flooding, and parts of the area have been occupied by cattle. There are numerous downed trees and rack lines. The canopy trees include Willow Oak (Quercus phellos), Mockernut Hickory (Carya tomentosa), Oak Springs Road – Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation 5 Black Walnut (Juglans nigra), Sweet Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera var. tulipifera), Short-leaf Pine (Pinus echinata), Cottonwood (Populus deltoides), Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), and Green ash (Fraxinus pensylvanica). The shrub layer is dominated by Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense) and River Cane (Arundinaria gigantea). Vines present are Catbrier (Smilax spp.), Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Crossvine (Bignoinia capreolata), Trumpet Creeper (Campsis radicans), and Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans). Herbs are few, primarily Panic Grass (Panicum sp.), and Japanese Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum). Expansive pasture land comprises most of the central potion of the site with transitional fringe along the edges of the fields, fencerows and roadside along Oak Springs Road, dominated by Fescue turf grass (Festuca sp.), and common weedy and transitional species including Dog fennel (Eupatorium spp.), Goldenrod (Solidago spp.), Plume Grass (Erianthus contortus), Indian Grass (Sorghastrum nutans), Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus), Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense), Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), Sourgrass (Rumex acetosella), Ragwort (Packera sp.), and Ragweed (Ambrosia sp.). The southern portion of the site contains upland flats and gentle slopes with mature pines and hardwoods. The Natural Community Type in this area approximates a Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest, however there is little to no shrub or herb component due to disturbance. Tree species present include Short-leaf Pine (Pinus echinata), Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda), White Oak (Quercus alba), Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra), Southern Red Oak (Quercus falcata), Black Oak (Quercus velutina), Willow Oak (Quercus phellos), Mockernut Hickory (Carya tomentosa), Pignut Hickory (Carya glabra), Black Walnut (Juglans nigra), Sweet Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera var. tulipifera). Also in the southwestern corner of the site there is an old field in an early successional state with mixed shrubs, vines and herbs that typically occur in this habitat. Woody species present are small tree saplings of Pines, Sweet-gum and Tulip Poplar, and shrubs of Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Russian Olive, Chinese Privet, Smooth Sumac (Rhus glabra), and Groundsel Tree (Baccharis halimifolia). Herbs present are Johnson Grass, Plume Grass (Erianthus contortus), Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), Pokeweed (Phytolacca americana), Rabbit Tobacco (Gnapthalium obtusifolium, and Thoroughwort (Eupatorium sp.). Oak Springs Road – Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation 6 Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results • All potential habitats for Schweinitiz’s Sunflower and Michaux’s Sumac along the fencerows, roadside and field edges were closely examined. No individuals of Schweinitz’s Sunflower or Michaux’s Sumac were observed. • There is no Bald Eagle habitat on site, and no eagles or eagle’s nests were observed. • There is no suitable habitat on site to support populations of the Carolina Heelsplitter. Based on existing documentation, Carolina Heelsplitter populations have not been previously identified within this basin. No individuals were observed during the survey nor would any be expected on-site. RECOMMENDATIONS: Based on the site investigation and the review of available data, WEPG did not identify any protected species occurring on the subject property. No further investigation of the presence of protected species on this site is recommended at this time. Respectfully submitted, _________________ Lisa R.
