Re: Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination Request for
Piedmont Natural Gas – Fayetteville Outer Loop Lines 90 and 5 Relocation
Cumberland County, North Carolina

Dear Ms. Greer:

Burns & McDonnell Consultants, Inc. (Burns & McDonnell) was retained by Piedmont Natural
Gas (PNG) to provide wetland delineation services for the Fayetteville Outer Loop Project. PNG
is proposing to relocate approximately 0.4 miles of 12-inch steel natural gas distribution pipeline
in four separate locations and construct an interconnect station in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
The purpose of the project will be to accommodate a new highway proposed in the area by
NCDOT while to continuing to provide reliable service to existing and future customers in the
greater Fayetteville Area. Individually, the four components of the project are known as Line 5 at
Grimes Road, Line 5 at Stoney Point Road, Line 5 and 90 Junction, and Line 90 at Camden Road
project sites.

The proposed project has the potential to impact wetlands or other waterbodies that may be
under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as designated by Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act. In an effort to minimize potential impacts on regulated waterbodies, Burns &
McDonnell teamed with Maser Consulting P.A. to conduct a wetland and waterbody delineation
of the four locations to determine the boundaries and extent of wetlands and other waterbodies,
including streams, ditches, ponds, etc.

Included in the request for a preliminary jurisdictional determination are the following
documents:

 Project-specific Agent Authorization Form
 Jurisdictional Determination Request Form
 Wetland and Waterbody Delineation Report
 Preliminary Pipeline Route Map Displaying Landowner information
 Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination Form
 Table of Wetlands and Waterbodies within Study Area

Jurisdictional Determination Request
Version: May 2017 Page 4

F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One)

I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminary 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

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option
to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an
informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their
characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
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 AJD for the
activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has
elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an
official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the
option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit
authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result
in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) 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) 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) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject
permit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant’s acceptance
of the use of the PJD; (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 PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the
review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and
waives 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 AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, 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. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic
jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official
delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will
provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds
that there “may be” waters of the U.S. and/or that there “may be” navigable waters of
the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review
area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On behalf of Burns and McDonnell, Maser Consulting conducted field delineations for the
Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines 90 & 5 Relocation project on March 21, 2019 to identify
jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) and wetlands at four (4) project sites located within
the southeast section of Cumberland County, North Carolina. Individually, the four (4) project
sites are known as Lines 5 and 90 Junction, Line 5 at Stoney Point Road, Line 5 at Grimes Road,
and Line 90 at Camden Road project sites.

Based on the field investigations, two (2) wetland areas and one (1) stream feature were
delineated at Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines 90 & 5 Relocation project by Maser Consulting on
March 21, 2019. One (1) wetland feature and (1) stream feature was delineated at the Line 5 at
Grimes Road project site. It is Maser Consulting’s professional opinion that the delineated
wetland area and stream feature would be considered jurisdictional WOTUS and wetlands since
these features are associated with an unnamed tributary at Lakewood Lake. One (1) wetland
feature was delineated at the Line 5 at Stoney Point Road project site. It is Maser Consulting’s
professional opinion that the delineated wetland area would be considered a jurisdictional wetland
since this feature drains southwest towards Stewarts Creek. There were no jurisdictional WOTUS
or wetlands located at the Lines 5 and 90 Junction and Line 90 Camden Road project sites.

2.0 INTRODUCTION
The Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines 90 & 5 Relocation project is located within the southwest
section of Cumberland County, approximately 9.5 miles southwest of the City of Fayetteville,
North Carolina. The project is comprised of four (4) project sites in which Duke Energy is
proposing to relocate approximately 0.4 miles total of a 12” steel natural gas distribution line in
four separate locations and construct an interconnect station in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The
purpose of the project will be to continue to provide reliable service to its existing and future
customers in the greater Fayetteville Area. Individually, the four (4) project sites are known as
Line 5 at Grimes Road, Line 5 at Stoney Point Road, Li nes 5 and 90 Junction, and Line 90 at
Camden Road project sites.

Study areas for the four (4) project sites were investigated to identify potential jurisdictional
Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) and wetlands subject to Federal or State regulatory jurisdiction.
According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) regulations described in Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 CFR Section 328.3
and 40 CFR Section 230.3) respectively, wetlands are "...areas that are inundated or saturated with
surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal
circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil
conditions."

3.0 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
The Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines 90 & 5 Relocation project is located within the Cape Fear
River Basin (HUC 03030004) within the Rockfish Creek sub-watershed.

4.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Prior to onsite field investigations, several publicly available sources of information were reviewed
to determine the likelihood of wetlands and surface waters occurring within each of the four (4)
project sites. These mapping resources generally include, but are not limited to, the United States
Geological Survey (USGS) maps, the U.S. Department of Agriculture - Natural Resource
Conservation Service (NRCS) soils database, National Hydrography Dataset (NHD), and the U.S.
Fish & Wildlife Service National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) database (Figures 3A through 3D).

4.2 SOIL SURVEY
The NRCS Web Soil Survey depicts several map units within the Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines
90 & 5 Relocation project. Corresponding drainage descriptions were reviewed for each project
site.

Lines 5 and 90 Junction
The Soil Survey map does not show a stream feature located within the project site. There is a
pond feature shown to the west of the project site. The project site contains three (3) soil types:
Blaney loamy sand (BaD), Candor sand (CaB), and Wagram loamy sand (WaB). The dominant
soil type in the project site is Candor sand (CaB), which is well drained and in the Hydrologic Soil
Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil. Wagram loamy sand (WaB) is a well-drained soil that
is in the Hydrologic Soil Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil. The first 20 inches of Blaney
loamy sand (BaD) are loamy. The Blaney loamy sand (BaD) cannot store much water and is
within the Hydrologic Soil Group C and therefore, not a hydric soil (Figure 2A).

Line 5 at Stoney Point Road
The Soil Survey map does not show a stream feature located within the project site. The project
site contains three (3) soil types: Wagram loamy sand (WaB), Norfolk loamy sand (NoA), and
McColl loam (Mc). The dominant soil type in the area is Norfolk loamy sand (NoA), a well-
drained soil which is in the Hydrologic Soil Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil. McColl
loam (Mc) is a poorly drained soil that is prone to flooding, which is in the Hydrological Soil
Group D and therefore, is a hydric soil. Wagram loamy sand (WaB) is a well-drained soil that is
in the Hydrologic Soil Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil (Figure 2B).

Line 5 at Grimes Road
The Soil Survey map does not show a stream feature located within the project site. There is a
stream feature shown to the east of the project site. The project site contains three (3) soil types:
Coxville loam (Co), Lynchburg sandy loam (Ly), and Wagram loamy sand (WaB). The main soil
type within the project site is Coxville loam (Co), which is in the C/D Hydrological Soil group,
indicating that Coxville loam (Co) is a hydric soil. The Wagram loamy sand (WaB) soil is well-

FINAL WETLAND DELINEATION REPORT PAGE 6
FAYETTEVILLE OUTER LOOP, LINES 90 AND 5 RELOCATION JUNE 18, 2020
FAYETTEVILLE, CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NC
drained and in Hydrologic Soil Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil. The Lynchburg sandy
loam (Ly) does not store water very well and is in the Hydrologic Soil Group B/D and therefore,
not a hydric soil (Figure 2C).

Line 90 at Camden Road
The Soil Survey map does not show a stream feature located within the project site. There is a
stream feature shown to the south of the project site. The project site contains two (2) soil types:
Norfolk loamy sand (NoA) and Woodington loamy sand (Wo). The dominant soil type in the
project site is Norfolk loamy sand (NoA), which is well-drained and within the Hydrologic Soil
Group A and therefore, not a hydric soil. Woodington loamy sand (Wo) is in the Hydrological
Soil Group A/D, indicating that Woodington loamy sand (Wo) is a hydric soil (Figure 2D).

5.0 WETLAND & SURFACE WATER DELINEATION METHODOLOGY
The wetland delineation methodologies developed by the USACE and the USEPA, as described
in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1 and the
Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Eastern Mountains
& Piedmont (Version 2.0) and subsequently issued USACE regulatory guidance regarding the
identification of jurisdictional stream channels through the recognition of field indicators of an
ordinary high-water mark within drainage features (Environmental Laboratory, 1987; USACE
2012; USACE 2005), were utilized during our investigation. These methodologies generally
involve the review of three parameters (vegetation, soils, hydrology) when making a wetland or
non-wetland determination. In addition, surface waters were delineated based upon the
methodology outlined in the NC DWR Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and
Perennial Stream and Their Origins (Version 4.11).

Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines 90 & 5 Relocation project contains four (4) project sites. The four
(4) project sites were walked, community types were characterized, and wetland and surface water
boundaries were flagged on March 21, 2019. Sample stations were established along the
boundaries to examine vegetation, soils, and hydrology. Using this data, boundaries were
established based on changes in vegetation, soils, hydrology, and surface water characteristics.

6.3 SOILS
Hydric soils are defined as soils that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding
long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part of the
soil (USDA 2003). The soils in the wetland areas were variable, but for the most part, exhibited
low chroma matrices with redoximorphic features. Soils within the wetland areas exhibited low
chroma matrix colors and concentrations that are characteristic of reducing anaerobic conditions
associated within the formation of hydric soils. The Line 5 at Grimes Road and Line 5 at Stoney
Point project sites contained wetland soils that are typically gray (10YR 5/1) down to 16 inches.
Redox concentrations greater than 40% were observed between 0 and 16 inches below soil surface
and are typically pale brown (10YR 6/3). Soils within wetland areas at both the Line 5 at Grimes
Road and Line 5 at Stoney Point project sites meet the Depleted Matrix (F3) hydric soil indicator.
Textures within the wetland areas include sandy silt and clay. The upland soils within each of the
four (4) project sites area varied from light olive brown (2.5Y 5/3) to pale brown (2.5Y 7/3) within
the upper 16 inches. Soil textures include sandy loam, sandy clay loam, clay loam, and loam.

FAYETTEVILLE, CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NC
6.4 HYDROLOGY
Wetland areas at the Line 5 at Grimes Road and Line 5 at Stoney Point project sites exhibited
primary and secondary indicators of wetland hydrology. Positive indicators of wetland hydrology
included the following: high water table (A2), saturation (A3), water-stained leaves (B9), and
oxidized rhizospheres on living roots (C3). Secondary indicators include drainage patterns (B10),
and the FAC-neutral test (D5). Indicators of wetland hydrology are largely absent in upland areas.

7.0 WETLAND DELINEATION CONCLUSION
Two (2) wetland areas and one (1) stream feature were delineated at Fayetteville Outer Loop, Lines
90 & 5 Relocation project by Maser Consulting on March 21, 2019. One (1) wetland feature and
(1) stream feature were delineated at the Line 5 at Grimes Road project site. It is Maser
Consulting’s professional opinion that the delineated wetland area and stream feature would be
considered jurisdictional WOTUS and wetlands since these features are associated with an unnamed
tributary at Lakewood Lake. One (1) wetland feature was delineated at the Line 5 at Stoney Point
Road project site. It is Maser Consulting’s professional opinion that the delineated wetland area
would be considered a jurisdictional wetland since this feature drains southwest towards Stewarts
Creek. Wetland areas are characterized as primarily emergent wetland systems with forested and scrub-
shrub wetland systems located immediately adjacent to them. The stream feature varies between 4.5 to
5 feet wide and is approximately 2.5 feet deep. There were no jurisdictional WOTUS or wetlands
located at the Lines 5 and 90 Junction and Line 90 at Camden Road project sites. Field
investigations were conducted in accordance with the manuals, methodologies, and regulatory
guidance procedures as stated in Section 5.0 Wetland and Surface Water Delineation
Methodology.
