The project site is located in west Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, NC. Project Information 1. Name of proiect: Shopton Ridge Business Park 2. Location: Mecklenburg County Nearest Town: Charlotte 3. Property Identification Number: 20146106, 20146109, 20146124, 20146123,20146129,20146130 4. Directions: Interstate 485, Exit NC Highway 160 (Steele Creek Road) go north; right turn on Shopton Road; site it at the intersection of Sandy Porter Road and Shopton Road. 5. Site coordinates: 6. Property Size: 35.1671 N; 80.9502 W 161.76 Acres 7. Name of nearest receiving body of water: UT of Coffey Creek 8. River Basin: Catawba �t 9. Existing Conditions: The project area is experiencing rapid economic growth dues to it's proximity to Interstate 485. Other commercial and residential developments are currently under construction in the vicinity. The site is partially constructed with earlier phases of the project. Due to economic conditions since 9/11/01, development of the site was slower than initially expected. The remaining undeveloped areas of the site consist of abandoned agricultural land and timbered wood land in early to mid -succession. 10. Overall Project Description: The proposed project is a commercial transportation distribution center and office complex with approximately 2,000,000 square feet. The project serves the I-485, 1-77,1-85 transportation corridor as well as Charlotte Douglas Airport. 11. Purpose of Proposed Work: A road crossing is required to access the site from Sandy Porter Road. The road crossing is at the head of the unnamed tributary of Coffey Creek. The proposed road crossing is 340 linear feet. 12. Project History: A permit for stream and wetland impacts were issued by the USACE (Action ID. 200030481-482) and NCDENR — DWQ (DWQ # 000250) on April 10, 2000. The stormwater management plan was approved by NCDENR-DWQ on June 20, 2001. The USACE permit included approximately 1,810 linear feet of stream impacts by road crossings, dam construction, and inundation. Approximately 0.65 acre of headwater wetlands were permitted to be filled. Mitigation was required for 0.65 acres of wetland impacts. The intial plan indicated a bottomless arch culvert of approximately 150 feet long to span the creek in the vicinity of the proposed crossing. The NCDENR 401 WQC permitted approximately 0.98 acres of wetlands; 1,990 linear feet of stream by culverting and flooding Actual impacts are less than what was permitted overall. Impacts include approximately 0.65 acres of wetland impacts and approximately 1607 linear feet of streams impacts due to road crossings, dam construction and inundation Approximately 0.65 acres of wetlands were constructed downstream of the dam as required. Prior to development the site jurisdictional Waters of the U.S./Waters of the State included 3800 linear feet of important stream (intermittent and perennial); 400 linear feet of unimportant stream (intermittent); and 0.65 acre of wetland. Preliminary identification and delineation of the Jurisdictional Waters on the site were determined according to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1, 1987, with Appendices. Preliminary data gathering included review and interpretation of topographic maps; USDA Soil Conservation Survey; aerial photographs, and preliminary site visits to selected areas. Then the Routine On -Site Determination Method was utilized to determine the upper boundary of the wetlands. In order to make a positive wetland determination indicators of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soil, and wetland hydrology must be identified as described in the manual. The wetland boundary and surface waters were identified in the field by Leonard S. Rindner, PWS and were reviewed and verified by the USACE (Amanda Jones). The approved map has been used for planning and potential permitting purposes. Hydrophytic Vegetation has been identified according to the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: Southeast (Region 2), US Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. 3 0 k Hydric Soils None of the soils are listed as Hydric according to the National List of Hydric Soils, 1991, however inclusions of hydric soils occur within Monacan (Mo) soils in depressions and level drainage ways. Hydric soils are defined as soils that are saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part. 13. Future Project Plans: Additional stream and wetland impacts are not expected for the project. 14 Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State: Proposed impacts are to approximately 340 linear feet of perennial stream in conjunction with a road crossing to gain access to Sandy Porter Road and to facilitate circulation within the project. 15. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization): The road crossing is required to provide truck and vehicular access to and from Sandy Porter Road to serve approximately '/z of the project site and to provide through access. Other access points are limited due to surrounding residential areas. The access point to Sandy Porter Road is the minimum distance to the intersection of Shopton Road. A bottomless culvert is not practicable due to the length and height of retaining walls. The height of the proposed crossings is dictated by the maximum allowed slopes for safe and efficient circulation as well as what is required to meet grades on Sandy Porter Raod. It is expected that the cost of a bottomless culvert and the wing walls would exceed $500,000 to $1,000,000. The alternative of moving the road south to cross the road at a perpendicular angle is impracticable. While it reduces impacts by approximately 100 linear feet, it requires approximately 320 linear feet of 30' to 40' high retaining wall to preserve that 100 linear feet of stream. The cost of these retaining walls is generally equivalent to the cost of a bottomless culvert. Eliminating the retaining walls, leaves the remnant stream in a +/- 40' deep depression and creates dead -ends in parking lots causing unusual turning issues for truck traffic. Moving the road above the head of the stream would require the loss of 108,000 SF of distribution warehouse space and create a potentially unsafe reverse curve situation. To minimize the extent of the stream impacts 2:1 slopes will be utilized for the fill slope. Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan. DETERMINATION of NO PRACTICABLE ALTERNATIVE This project is designed to take advantage of the transportation system enabling the region to be served. Vacant buildings resulting from poor planning and improper design create eyesores within the community. Reducing the size of the buildings, difficulties in accessibility and compromising engineering requirements and safe access does not meet current design standards and can severely jeopardize the success of the project in this highly competitive industry. Therefore it would not be feasible as a project. In conclusion, due to the site planning constraints of a development of this type, large contiguous areas must be graded for building pads, parking, and access roads. To balance the environmental consequences of these unavoidable impacts to surface waters and wetlands the developer has proposed minimization measures and has proposed a compensatory mitigation plan. 16. Mitigation: The developer is proposing to mitigate for the proposed stream impact through a contribution to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program for 340 linear feet of stream impacts. In addition, the perennial stream and the remaining intermittent streams will be preserved. 17. Stormwater: A stormwater management plan was developed for the entire project and approved on June 20, 2001 (see attached letter). The Stormwater Management Plan was designed and implemented for the project to meet the 401 Water Quality Certification requirements. The Stormwater Management Plan includes facilities that will attenuate the first inch of runoff over a 24- hour period. Water is released over a 2 to 5 day period. Discharge velocity will be less than 5 cfs. The stormwater management facilities were designed to meet or exceed the requirements in NCDENR Stormwater Best Management Practices, April 1999. Endangered Species and Cultural Resources Based on a field survey the proposed activity will not affect species, or their critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The survey conducted by Habitat Assessment Restoration Program is included in this report. There are no indications of any existing structures or archaeological sites on listed on or potentially eligible for the National Register within the study area. According to the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, this site is not registered property or property listed as being eligible for inclusion in the Register. The requested permit has considered an evaluation of the probable and cumulative impacts and its intended use on the public interest. Based on a comprehensive analysis we believe that this proposal complies with the Environmental Protection Agencies' 404(b) (1) guidelines. The economic benefits of this project have been balanced by a mitigation plan to minimize and balance the environmental consequences. The proposal reflects the national concern for both the protection and utilization of important resources. Relevant factors included in the proposal include general environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values, land use, water quality, considerations of property ownership, and in general, the needs and welfare of the people. Aquatic Habitat The aquatic systems in the project area consist of headwater wetlands, intermittent and perennial tributaries of Coffey Creek. A variety of wildlife is supported by these systems including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, mollusks, and crustaceans. Therefore strict adherence to an approved erosion and sedimentation control plan will be maintained during the construction period in order to control degradation of water quality downstream and protect the areas to be preserved. Impacts from hazardous materials and other toxins to fish and aquatic life such as fuels will be avoided by not permitting staging areas to be located near surface waters. Also, as required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions, measures will be taken to prevent "live" or fresh concrete from coming into contact with waters until the concrete has hardened. CONCLUSION The 161 acre development will provide important economic benefits to the region. Based on the value of the jurisdictional waters and wetlands on this site the developer has chosen to balance the site's economic viability with its environmental value and permitability. The goal of the proposed stormwater treatment and mitigation measures is to help balance the environmental consequences of this development.

AFTER EVERY SIGNIFICANT RUNOFF PRODUCING RAINFALL EVENT AND AT LEAST MONTHLY THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES SHOULD BE PERFORMED. A. INSPECT THE WET DETENTION BASIN SYSTEM FOR SEDIMENT ACCUMULATION, EROSION, TRASH ACCUMULATION, VEGETATED COVER, AND GENERAL CONDITION. B. CHECK AND CLEAR THE ORIFICE OF ANY OBSTRUCTIONS SUCH THAT DRAW DOWN OF THE TEMPORARY POOL OCCURS WITHIN 2 TO 5 DAYS AS DESIGNED. 2. REPAIR ERODED AREAS IMMEDIATELY, RE -SEED AS NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN GOOD VEGETATIVE COVER, MOW VEGETATIVE COVER TO MAINTAIN A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF SIX INCHES, AND REMOVE TRASH AS NEEDED. 3. INSPECT AND REPAIR THE COLLECTION SYSTEM (I.E. CATCH BASINS, PIPING, SWALES, RIP -RAP, ETC.) QUARTERLY TO MAINTAIN PROPER FUNCTIONING. 4. REMOVE ACCUMULATED SEDIMENT FROM THE WET DETENTION BASIN SYSTEM ANNUALLY OR WHEN DEPTH IS REDUCED TO 75% OF THE ORIGINAL DESIGN DEPTH (SEE DIAGRAM BELOW). REMOVED SEDIMENT SHALL BE DISPOSED OF IN AN APPROPRIATE MANNER AND SHALL BE HANDLED IN A MANNER THAT WILL NOT ADVERSELY IMPACT WATER QUALITY (I.E. STOCKPILING NEAR A WET DETENTION BASIN OR STREAM, ETC.). A. THE MEASURING DEVICE USED TO DETERMINE THE SEDIMENT ELEVATION SHALL BE SUCH THAT IT WILL GIVE AN ACCURATE DEPTH READING AND NOT READILY PENETRATE INTO ACCUMULATED SEDIMENTS. B. WHEN THE PERMANENT POOL DEPTH READS 621.5 IN THE MAIN POND, THE SEDIMENT SHALL BE REMOVED. C. WHEN THE PERMANENT POOL DEPTH READS 621.5 IN THE FOREBAY, THE SEDIMENT SHALL BE REMOVED.

We used aerial photographs from the Mecklenburg County Engineering Department to determine the open spaces and to gain an idea of the hardwood vs pine forest cover. Our primary concern was to determine if Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) was present. We examined the roadsides and parallel power line rights of way on Shopton and Sandy Porter Roads, the open fields at the northeast corner of the property and the open area behind the church. There was no evidence of Schweinitz's sunflower in the areas examined. We had checked this week on a known population and last fall's stems and leaves are still visible. The headwaters of the stream behind the church were examined for the possible presence of the Virginia quillwort (Isoetes virginica). None was found. No other species on the list were located and the general habitats are not present for most species, with the possible exception of the annual Carolina Birdfoot-trefoil, (Lotus helleri). Most of the site has been disturbed in the past, some is now in middle to late succession. Approximately 60% of the site has mostly pine cover. The dominant species are Shortleaf, (Pinus echinata), and Virginia, (P. virginiana). These occur mostly on the tops of ridges, where agricultural activity occurred in the past. The slopes on both sides of the tributary and the ravines into the tributary support a mature Dry-Mesic Oak Hickory Forest, dominated by White oak (Quercus alba) Red oak, (Q. rubra), Black oak (Q. velutina), Mockemut hickory (Carya tomentosa), Sweet pignut hickory (C. ovalis) Habitat Analysis, Endangered Plant Studies, Restoration of Habitats, Wetland Mitigation, Monitoring w L. Rindner 23 March 2000 p. 2 and Pignut hickory (C. glabra). Since these areas were not farmed and have been disturbed less, they contain the remnant forest cover. If any of these areas can be preserved as part of buffers or natural areas in the development process, it would be good to do so. The frontage along Shopton Road, east of the church, has been timbered, so the integrity of this area does not allow an evaluation. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. enclosure Sincerely, 4 J F. Matthews
