Project Blue Jay (SAW-2020-00232)
5 Moore Drive
Durham, Durham County, North Carolina
ECS Project No.: 49: 10155
Dear Mr. Hopper,
On behalf of Parmer RTP, LLC and ARCO Design/Build, please find the attached Request for
Pre-Construction Notification for the approximate 300 acre Project Blue Jay site located at 5
Moore Drive in Durham, Durham County, North Carolina. The purpose of the project is to
connect an existing electric substation to a proposed commercial development that will contain
research and logistics services for a pharmaceutical company.
The subject site is located west of Moore Drive in Durham, Durham County, North Carolina.
According to the Durham County Online GIS website, the site is identified as portions of Durham
County Parcel Identification Numbers (PINs) 0739-74-19-8533, 0739-85-90-8453, 0739-86-65-
3511.SRV, 0739-02-77-4055, 0739-02-98-2166, 0739-86-65-3511.RTP, and 0749-06-62-8419.
The site consists of approximately 250 acres and is owned by Parmer RTP, LLC.
ECS conducted a site visit with Mr. Chris Hopper and Ms. Samantha Dailey, with the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) on February 4, 2020. The USACE concurred with the
approximate boundaries of the waters as shown on the enclosed delineation maps in the
appendices. At the time of issuance of this permit application, ECS has not received a
Jurisdictional Determination (JD) letter from the USACE.
Project Description
The proposed commercial facility will be a 100+ acre research and development site for a
pharmaceutical company. Due to the size and nature of the development, new electrical conduit
is needed to supply the buildings future use. The only connection point (within reason) to the
existing electrical substation crosses over Tributary 2 and Northeast Creek. Since stream
crossings are required, the proposed crossing locations were chosen to minimize impacts. The
crossing occurs as close to perpendicular as reasonably possible. In addition, the location was
identified to be where the floodplains were at the minimum width.
2
The project facility will be constructed via standard construction procedure. The electric line
extension will be constructed by open trenching. The stream will be dewatered and routed
around the construction area via a pump and filter bag configuration. The site falls within the
Jordan Lake Watershed and is zoned SRP and located within the Suburban Development Tier;
therefore, minimal buffer impacts will be required. The 5 Moore Drive 300 acre commercial
project will maintain independent utility, and will be permitted through the City of Durham.
Impacts & Mitigation
The development plan proposes ~40 feet of temporary impacts to jurisdictional streams, and
approximately 4,043 square feet of buffer impact. Buffer impacts are in accordance with the
Jordan Buffer Rules Table of Uses allowable activities, and are 20 feet in width per crossing.
Limited maintenance of the corridor will be required. Temporary stream impacts include work
area, coffer dam and pump around, and open cutting. No permanent stream or wetland impacts
are proposed. Minimal clearing will take place, and the utility corridor will be allowed to return to
original conditions subsequent to installation. Due to the minimal temporary impact to streams,
and minimal impact to riparian buffers, no mitigation is proposed.
Avoidance and minimization of waters was performed to the greatest extent possible with
respect to the waters on-site, and the necessary path of the electrical line to connect to the
proposed facility.
3
Closing
ECS respectfully requests the verification of the use of NWP 18 to authorize ~40 feet of
temporary impacts to jurisdictional streams, and approximately 4,043 square feet of buffer
impact. The attached permit application, project information, and associated attachments
provide details pertaining to the proposed project impacts.
ECS looks forward to your attention to this request. Please contact Jonathan Grubb at (919)
414-0214/jgrubb@ecslimited.com or Brandon Fulton at (704) 409-7744/
bfulton@ecslimited.com with questions or if additional information is required.

B. Project Information and Prior Project History
1a. Property identification no. (tax PIN or Parcel ID): 225020, 225021, 225017, 16353, 156981,
156979, 156982, 156983, 225023, 156980
3d. Explain the purpose of the project:
The proposed commercial facility will be a 100+ acre research and development site for a
pharmaceutical company. Due to the size and nature of the development, new electrical conduit
is needed to supply the buildings future use. The only connection point (within reason) to the
existing electrical substation crosses over Tributary 2 and Northeast Creek. Since stream
crossings are required, the proposed crossing locations were chosen to minimize impacts. The
crossing occurs as close to perpendicular as reasonably possible. In addition, the location was
identified to be where the floodplains were at the minimum width.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The project facility will be constructed via standard construction procedure. The electric line
extension will be installed by open trenching, and is approximately 4 feet in width. The streams
will be dewatered and routed around the construction area via a pump and filter bag
configuration. The site falls within the Jordan Lake Watershed and is zoned SRP and located
within the Suburban Development Tier; therefore, minimal buffer impacts will be required. The 5
Moore Drive 300 acre commercial project will maintain independent utility, and will be permitted
through the City of Durham.
Standard construction equipment used in the construction of sanitary sewer lines will be utilized.
Proper erosion and sedimentation control measures would be employed throughout the project.
Typical materials and machinery will be used on-site during the construction process.
D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in
designing project:
The development plan proposes ~40 feet of temporary impacts to jurisdictional streams, and
approximately 4,043 square feet of buffer impact. Buffer impacts are in accordance with the
Jordan Buffer Rules Table of Uses allowable activities, and are 20 feet in width per crossing.
Limited maintenance of the corridor will be required. Temporary stream impacts include work
area, coffer dam and pump around, and open cutting. No permanent stream or wetland impacts
are proposed. Minimal clearing will take place, and the utility corridor will be allowed to return to
original conditions subsequent to installation. Due to the minimal temporary impact to streams,
and minimal impact to riparian buffers, no mitigation is proposed.
Avoidance and minimization of waters was performed to the greatest extent possible with
respect to the waters on-site, and the necessary path of the electrical line to connect to the
proposed facility.
2
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through
construction techniques:
Disturbance of the wetland shall be minimized to the extent practicable in order to construct the
electrical line. The construction techniques shall be conducted in accordance with NCDENR
standards. Temporary and additional erosion control measures shall be maintained throughout
the construction process. Silt fencing will be placed at the bottom of the slopes to deter
sediment and erosion control during roadway development activities. Temporary erosion,
sedimentation, and pollution controls will be installed prior to and maintained during the entire
construction duration and until final stabilization is established.
F. Supplementary Information
5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement)
ECS performed and assessment for Endangered Species and Critical Habitat. The PSA
consists of primarily heavily wooded land, but also has a large cleared area that is being
graded. The wooded land consists of mature and immature pine and hardwood species, ranging
from approximately 10 to 100 years old. Open understory to moderately dense vegetation is
located throughout the wooded land. The site reconnaissance was performed on May 27th,
2020. A letter was sent to the USFWS Asheville Office on June 11 to obtain concurrence of our
findings.

Species/Habitat Description
Vertebrate:
Bald Eagle Survey Window: Year-round
Description: Distinguished by a white head and white tail feathers, bald eagles are powerful,
brown birds that may weigh 14 pounds and have a wingspan of 8 feet. Male eagles are smaller,
3
weighing as much as 10 pounds and have a wingspan of 6 feet. Sometimes confused with
Golden Eagles, Bald Eagles are mostly dark brown until they are four to five years old and
acquire their characteristic coloring.
Habitat: Bald Eagles live near rivers, lakes, and marshes where they can find fish, their staple
food. Bald Eagles will also feed on waterfowl, turtles, rabbits, snakes, and other small animals
and carrion. Bald Eagles require a good food base, perching areas, and nesting sites. Their
habitat includes estuaries, large lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and some seacoasts. In winter, the
birds congregate near open water in tall trees for spotting prey and night roosts for sheltering.
Conclusion: The PSA consists of primarily heavily wooded land, but also has a large cleared
area that has been graded. Large bodies of water and a steady food support are not present
within the PSA. Based on the site reconnaissance and observations, suitable habitat for the
Bald Eagle is not present within the PSA or in the surrounding area. No individuals, or nests
were observed during the site reconnaissance. Due to being a fair distance away from a large
enough body of water, ECS has concluded that the developments will have no effect on the
Bald Eagle.
Invertebrate:
Dwarf Wedgemussel Survey Window: Year Round
Description: The dwarf wedgemussel is a small bivalve, rarely exceeding 45 mm in length.
Clean young shells are usually greenish-brown with green rays. As the animal ages, the shell
color becomes obscured by diatoms or mineral deposits and appears black or brown. The shell
is thin but does thicken somewhat with age, especially toward the anterior end. The anterior end
is rounded while the posterior end is angular forming a point near the posterio-ventral margin.
The ventral margin is only slightly curved. The nacre is bluish-white, appearing whiter in the
thicker anterior end. The most distinctive shell character of the dwarf wedgemussel is the
arrangement of the lateral teeth. There are two lateral teeth in the right valve and one in the left
valve. The typical arrangement for most freshwater mussel species consists of two lateral teeth
in the left valve and one in the right valve.
Habitat: The dwarf wedgemussel appears to be a generalist in terms of its preference for
stream size, substrate and flow conditions – it inhabits small streams less than five meters wide
to large rivers more than 100 meters wide; it is found in a variety of substrate types including
clay, sand, gravel and pebble, and sometimes in silt depositional areas near banks; and it
usually inhabits hydrologically stable areas, including very shallow water along streambanks
and under root mats, but it has also been found at depths of 25 feet in the Connecticut River.
Dwarf wedgemussels are often patchily distributed in rivers.
Conclusion: The PSA consists of primarily heavily wooded land, but also has a large cleared
area that has been graded. The wooded land consists of mature and immature pine and
hardwood species, ranging from approximately 10 to 50 years old. Dense to moderately dense
understory vegetation is located throughout the wooded land. Multiple streams transect the site
containing all types of substrate. Based on the habitat within the PSA, it was concluded that
4
habitat is present for the dwarf wedgemussel within the streams; however the streams are not to
be impacted other than temporarily for an underground utility feed crossing. No mussels of any
genus were observed during the site reconnaissance. The project will not have permanent
impacts to streams or wetlands, and stormwater management/sediment erosion control plan will
adhere to Water Supply Water and Nutrient Sensitive Water Phase II requirements. ECS
concluded that the project will not affect the mussel.
Vascular Plants:
Michaux’s Sumac Survey window: May through October
Description: Michaux's sumac is a rhizomatous, densely hairy shrub, with erect stems from 1 -
3 feet (ft) (30.5 – 91 centimeters, cm) in height. The compound leaves contain evenly serrated,
oblong to lanceolate, acuminate leaflets. Most plants are unisexual; however, more recent
observations have revealed plants with both male and female flowers on one plant. The flowers
are small, borne in a terminal, erect, dense cluster, and colored greenish yellow to white.
Flowering usually occurs from June to July; while the fruit, a red drupe, is produced through the
months of August to October.
Habitat: Michaux's sumac grows in sandy or rocky open woods in association with basic soils.
Apparently, this plant survives best in areas where some form of disturbance has provided an
open area. Several populations in North Carolina are on highway rights-of way, roadsides, or on
the edges of artificially maintained clearings. Two other populations are in areas with periodic
fires, and two populations exist on sites undergoing natural succession. One population is
situated in a natural opening on the rim of a Carolina bay.
Conclusion: The PSA consists of primarily heavily wooded land, but also has a large cleared
area that has been graded. The wooded land consists of mature and immature pine and
hardwood species, ranging from approximately 10 to 50 years old. Dense to moderately dense
understory vegetation is located throughout the wooded land. Carolina Bays and areas with
periodic fires are not located on site. Based on the habitat within the PSA, it was concluded that
minimal potential habitat is present for Michaux’s sumac around the edge of the woods. A
targeted survey was performed, and no individuals were observed during the site
reconnaissance. Since the existing woodland will not be impacted, and the remainder of the site
contains cleared or dense vegetation, ECS concluded that the project will not affect the plant.
Smooth Coneflower Survey Window: Late May through October
Description: Smooth coneflower is a perennial herb in the Aster family (Asteraceae) that
grows up to 3.3 feet (ft) (1 meter; m) tall from a vertical root stock. The large elliptical to broadly
lanceolate basal leaves may reach 8 inches (in) (20 centimeters; cm) in length and 3.0 in (7.5
cm) in width and taper into long petioles toward the base. They are smooth to slightly rough in
texture. The stems are smooth, with few leaves.
Habitat: Smooth coneflower is typically found in open woods, glades, cedar barrens, roadsides,
clearcuts, dry limestone bluffs, and power line rights-of-way, usually on magnesium and calcium
rich soils associated with amphibolite, dolomite or limestone (in Virginia), gabbro (in North
Carolina and Virginia), diabase (in North Carolina and South Carolina), and marble (in South
Carolina and Georgia). Smooth coneflower occurs in plant communities that have been
described as xeric hardpan forests, diabase glades or dolomite woodlands. Optimal sites are
characterized by abundant sunlight and little competition in the herbaceous layer. Natural fires,
5
as well as large herbivores, historically influenced the vegetation in this species' range. Many of
the herbs associated with Smooth coneflower are also sun-loving species that depend on
periodic disturbances to reduce the shade and competition of woody plants.
Conclusion: The PSA consists of primarily heavily wooded land, but also has a large cleared
area that has been graded. The wooded land consists of mature and immature pine and
hardwood species, ranging from approximately 10 to 50 years old. Dense to moderately dense
understory vegetation is located throughout the wooded land. Carolina Bays and areas with
periodic fires are not located on site. Based on the habitat within the PSA, it was concluded
minimal potential habitat is present for Smooth Coneflower on roadsides and around the edge of
the woods. A targeted survey was performed and no individuals were observed during the site
reconnaissance. Since the existing woodland will not be impacted, and the remainder of the site
contains cleared or dense vegetation, ECS concluded that the project will not affect the plant.

Thank you, Jonathan:
The updated map for the above referenced site reflects the delineations reviewed and verified during our site visit
earlier today, 02/04/2020. Please note the feature shown as 'Potential Stream 12' includes a break at the culverted road
bed we used to access this area. If unavoidable impacts to this feature require permitting in the future, the use of a pre-
existing crossing may aid in demonstrating avoidance and minimization. Revise this if you would like to, otherwise I will
use this map when processing any PJD and/or permit application/request for this site.

The resources as shown may be relied upon for avoidance and minimization planning as preliminary layouts are
developed. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Good Morning Chris,
I hope you’ve had a good week. I apologize for the delay in JD updates as we have been under a cyber-attack for three
weeks, and are finally back up and moving forward. Please see the attached updated map and table. Can you concur
with this map so that Arco can proceed with overlaying their plans to make sure all waters are being avoided? I
appreciate your timely response as I apologize for this inconvenience to everyone. If something doesn’t look right to
your memory, please let me know ASAP so I can get it fixed. Have a great weekend!
Best,
Jonathan

Gentlemen:
Thank you both for your time yesterday. I've attached a copy of my site notes for your review. Please advise if I
overlooked or misrepresented anything. Areas shown are estimates and subject to change based on survey/GPS data.
We've assigned this a new Action ID Number: SAW-2020-00232. Based on our conversation yesterday we understand
the initial project area will avoid all aquatic resources and not require Clean Water Act Section 404 permitting. Please
note that due to the history of projects and past approvals on this site, it is possible any new impact would be
considered cumulative with those already approved and constructed.
We neglected to discuss it onsite yesterday, but there were potential eagles sited on the southern tract. Please make
sure to secure USFWS's concurrence if impacts requiring our approval are necessary. We will also need to ensure that
historic resources (I believe it was mentioned another consultant had addressed this) and ESA species identified by
USFWS are addressed prior to pursuing future approvals.
Please let me know if there are questions. We look forward to receiving the revised PJD application.

RE: Commercial Development Building ; 49:10155-D
Dear Jonathan Grubb:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that
there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or
conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there
may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not
imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query
should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare
species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our
records.
The attached ‘Potential Occurrences’ table summarizes rare species and natural communities that
have been documented within a one-mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these
records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area
if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one-mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.
If a Federally-listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one-mile radius of
the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for
guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
https://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a
Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water Management Trust Fund
easement, or Federally-listed species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney.butler@ncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program
