June 11, 2020 ELECTRONIC SUBNHTTAL deankbccgp.com Mr. Dean Boik Director of Development Services BC Construction Group 10153 Grand River Ave. Brighton, MI 48116 Dear Mr. Boik: Subject: Preliminary Waters of the United States Determination and Delineation with Protect Species Habitat Assessment 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC 28786 Parcel ID 8616-48-1684, Haywood County, NC CEC Project 302-078 This Report constitutes the results of CEC's desktop review and on -site Waters of the United States (WoUS), and Protected Species Habitat Assessment conducted May 30th and 31st for an approximately 15.69 acre parcel located in Haywood County, North Carolina (Project or Project Area). CEC understands the site has a proposed school building and associated structures in Haywood County, North Carolina, Parcel ID 8616-48-1684. 1.0 BACKGROUND WoUS are defined by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances, do support a prevalence of vegetation adapted for life in saturated soil conditions." In order for an area to be classified as a jurisdictional wetland, hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrologic indictors must be present. In North Carolina, the USACE and the EPA jointly regulate the discharge of dredged and fill material within jurisdictional WoUS under Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899. WoUS includes territorial seas, navigable coastal and inland lakes, rivers and streams (perennial and intermittent), and wetlands. Jurisdictional features include wetlands, open waters, ponds, lakes and perennial/intermittent streams. Jurisdictional features are regulated by the USACE and North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Water Quality (NC DEQ), (NC DWQ). Permit requirements are specific to the type, location and amount of impacts, if proposed. Stormwater management plans and/or mitigation for proposed impacts could be a requirement of the permit approval process. 530 Howell Road, Suite 203 1 Greenville, SC 29615 1 p: 864-626-3140 f: 864-626-3135 1 www.cecinc.com Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 2 June 11, 2020 This WoUS and Species Habitat Assessment can be used to assist the BC Construction Group (Client) with a preliminary review of the Project Area only and is not considered final until verified by the USACE and NC DEQ. The following supporting documents are provided: Figures: Figure 1: Vicinity Map; Figure 2: USGS Map; Figure 3: Aerial Imagery Map; Figure 4a: NRCS Current Soil Survey Map; Figure 4b: NRCS Published Soil Survey Map; Figure 5: National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) Map; and Figure 6: Potential Jurisdictional Features Map. Attachments: Attachment A: Wetland Determination Data Form; Attachment B: NC DEQ Stream Classification Forms; and Attachment C: WoUS and Habitat Representative Photographs. 2.0 CURRENT SITE CONDITIONS AND DESKTOP REVIEW The Project is located in a rural setting within a mixed -use commercial and multi to single- family residential area in Waynesville, Haywood County, North Carolina (Figures 1 & 2). The Project is bordered on the west by Russ Ave. (Hwy 276), north by Jule Nolan Dr. and south by Maple Grove Church Rd. The Project consists of an open grassed field, pasture with undeveloped wooded areas along the north, and more hedge row wooded areas along the west, east and south boundaries. Adjacent land parcels include a combination of commercial buildings and multi to single-family residential dwellings (Figures 2 & 3, Attachment A). A review of available topography shows the surrounding area to be moderately to steeply sloping. The Project contains elevations ranging from approximately 2,660 feet above sea level to approximately 2,590 feet above sea level. The United States Geologic Survey (USGS) map doesn't indicate any streams or wetlands on the Property (Figure 2). A review of the published and on-line National Resource Conservation Service (MRCS) Soil Survey for Haywood County indicates no hydric soils within the Project Area (Figures 4a and 4b). However, a blue line or stream is indicated on the published soil survey running along the eastern portion of the property, in a general south to north/northeastern direction toward Factory Branch that flows to Lake Junaluska (Figure 4b). A review of the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) map doesn't indicate any streams or wetlands on the Property (Figure 5). The NWI map appears to concur with the USGS map but differs from the published soil survey map. Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 3 June 11, 2020 CEC performed an in-house desktop study for protected species for the above referenced Project Areas (Figures I & 2). Database searches of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS); Information, Planning, and Consultation System (IPAC), were performed. The NCNHP revealed no known element occurrence within a 1 mile radius of the project area. The USFWS; IPAC revealed the potential for two known vascular element occurrences, the Small Whorled Pogonia (Isotria medeoloides) and Spreading Avens (Geum radiatum), one Lichen, the Rock Gnome Lichen (Gymnoderma lineare) as well as several potential mammal occurrences, the Northern Long-eared Bat (NLEB) (Myotis septentrionalis), the Gray Bat (Myotis grisescens), the Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis), and the Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus coloratus), one Arachnid, the Spruce -fir Moss Spider (Microhexura montivaga), and one Clam, the Appalachian Elktoe (Alasmidonta raveneliana) within Haywood County, North Carolina. Detailed field reconnaissance did not reveal the presence of any of the above -referenced species, or any suitable habitat for same. 3.0 METHODOLOGY 3.1 WoUS Preliminary Jurisdictional Review This assessment utilized the 1987 USACE Wetland Delineation Manual, the 2018 Field Indicators of Hydric Soils of the United States along with the USACE 2010 Regional Supplement: Supplemental Guide ERDC/EL TR-12-9 (Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Region (Version 2.0), Wilmington, NC District office. Potential jurisdictional areas were delineated (flagged in the field), classified, and mapped with a sub -foot Trimble Geo7X GPS unit using the USACE Routine On -Site Determination Method. Data representative of on -site jurisdictional wetland areas and non jurisdictional upland areas was collected and reported using Wetland Determination Data Forms (Attachment A). Potential jurisdictional stream channels were classified according to NC DWQ Stream Identification Form Version 4.11. CEC utilizes the NC DWQ stream classification forms in order to document on -site stream conditions as requested by the USACE Wilmington District field and satellite offices. These classifications include sampling with a soil hand auger and D-shaped dip net, collecting photographic documentation, and defining approximate breakpoints (location at which stream changes classification) within each on -site stream channel. NC DWQ Stream Classification Forms representative of on -site stream channels were used to document stream conditions (Attachment B). Representative photographs were taken of on -site aquatic features and existing site conditions (Attachment Q. The locations of mapped wetlands and other WoUS, Stream Classification Points (SCP), Wetland or Upland Determination Data Points (DP), and representative photographs, are depicted on (Figure 6). Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 4 June 11, 2020 3.2 Habitat Assessment Vascular Plants and Lichen CEC field scientists utilized a dichotomous key, developed by NC State Extension Service on behalf of the USFWS, Krings, A., S. Goyette, D. Suiter, and M. Samuels. 2012—present. Rare plants of North Carolina: Federally listed species and their congeners. Version 1.2. North Carolina State University, Raleigh. [http://herbarium.ncsu.edu/rare/;], to identify rare/threatened species outside of the proposed survey window. In addition, natural plant communities were typified using Schafale's `A Guide to the Natural Communities of North Carolina, Fourth Approximation' (2012) published jointly by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Small Whorled Pogonia The Small Whorled Pogonia (Isotria medeoloides), is a small to medium-sized (approximately 10 inches in height) rhizomatous terrestrial orchid that is native to eastern North America. Foliage consists of 4 to 5 bluish -green leaves that occur along the stem in the same axis or `whorl'- hence the common name. Flowers are usually borne singly on a small pedicel, although two and rarely three flowers may also be seen. In North Carolina, flowering typically occurs in mid to late May. This species requires acidic soil conditions in mesic to dry-mesic forests with canopy gaps or a history of disturbance. In our region, Small Whorled Pogonia is usually found growing in association with Eastern White Pine (Pious strobus), and New York Fern (Parathelypteris noveboracensis). Soils in the project area would appear to be too basic in nature for Small Whorled Pogonia, in addition to the fact that none of the aforementioned associated species are found on the site, indicating a lack of suitable habitat for this plant at the project site. Spreading Avens Spreading Avens (Geum radiatum), is a member of the Rose Family that is narrowly endemic to the states of North Carolina and Tennessee. Found growing in thin soils on high elevation rock summits, cliffs, and ledges, it is a low -growing perennial with kidney -shaped basal leaves that may be up to 6 inches across. Flowers, which may exceed 1.5 inches in diameter, are a deep yellow coloration, and are typically produced in June and July. No Spreading Avens were observed during this biological survey, and no suitable habitat of any kind for this plant is found at the project site. Rock Gnome Lichen The Rock Gnome Lichen (Gymnoderna lineare), is a Federally Endangered species of the southern Appalachians, and the only member of its genus in North America. Occurring in Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 5 June 11, 2020 moderate to dense colonies, this species has lobes of less than one inch in length, with bluish gray upper surfaces, and white undersurfaces. Almost exclusively limited to vertical or near - vertical rock faces, Rock Gnome Lichen requires a very moist micro -climate bathed in water seepage and spray. No Rock Gnome Lichens were encountered during the biological survey, as there is no suitable habitat or micro -climate conditions on the project site that would sustain this plant. Mammals Northern Long -Eared Bat The NLEB (Myotis septentrionalis), is a medium-sized bat with a body length of 3 to 3.7 inches, with a wingspan of 9 to 10 inches. Fur color can be medium to dark brown on the dorsal surface, and tawny to pale -brown on the ventral surface. As its name suggests, this bat is distinguished by its long ears, particularly as compared to other bats in its genus, Myotis. NLEBs spend winter hibernating in caves and mines, called hibernacula. They use areas in various sized caves or mines with constant temperatures, high humidity, and no air currents. During the summer, northern long-eared bats roost singly or in colonies underneath bark, in cavities or in crevices of both live trees and snags (dead trees). During the summer, NLEBs roost singly or in colonies underneath bark, in cavities or in crevices of both live trees and snags (dead trees). Males and non -reproductive females may also roost in cooler places, like caves and mines. Northern long-eared bats seem to be flexible in selecting roosts, choosing roost trees based on suitability to retain bark or provide cavities or crevices. This bat has also been found rarely roosting in structures, like barns and sheds. Suitably large trees or snags with the appropriate type of exfoliating bark were not noted during this biological survey. Therefore, no suitable habitat for Northern Long -Eared Bats occur on the project site. Gray Bat The Federally Endangered Gray Bat (Myotis grisescens), with a wingspan in excess of 11.5 inches, is the largest member of its genus in eastern North America. Fur coloration is a uniform dark gray or brown, depending on the time of year. The Gray Bat requires caves for both roosting and hibernation. Summer roost sites are typically in caves along rivers. Most foraging activity takes place over open water. This biological survey at the project site did not reveal the presence of any caves or large open water foraging sites suitable for Gray Bats. Indiana Bat The Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalis), is another bat species that is currently classified as Endangered by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). A medium-sized member of the genus Myotis, the Indiana Bat has variable fur coloration that ranges from black to light brown. Caves Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 6 June 11, 2020 are required for hibernation in winter, but summer roost sites consist of hollow snags and appropriately sized trees with exfoliating bark. The present biological survey did not reveal the presence of any caves, or the appropriate type of trees that could be utilized by Indiana Bats as roost sites. Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel The Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus coloratus), is a subspecies of the more widespread and abundant Northern Flying Squirrel that is found in coniferous and mixed coniferous forests across the top of North America, from Alaska to Nova Scotia, south to the mountains of North Carolina and west to Utah, Washington, and Oregon. Northern flying squirrels generally nest in holes in trees, preferring large -diameter trunks and dead trees, and will also build outside leaf nests called dreys and will also nest underground. Tree cavities created by woodpeckers as suitable nest sites tend to be more abundant in old -growth forests. Coniferous and mixed coniferous forest community types were not noted within the project site, and the large -diameter trunks and dead trees needed for nesting sites are largely lacking. Therefore, suitable habitat for the Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel is not present in the project site. No critical habitat has been designated for this species. Arachnids Spruce -fir Moss Spider The Spruce -fir moss spider lives in Fraser fir and Red spruce forests on mountain peaks at and above 1,650 m (5,410 ft) in the Southern Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. It has been recorded from Clingmans Dome and Mount Collins (both very small populations), Mount Le Conte, Mount Mitchell (probably extirpated), Grandfather Mountain, and Roan Mountain. The project site does not contain Fraser fir and/or red spruce forests, and is not located on a mountain peak at or above 1,650 m (5,410 ft). Additionally, the areas designated as critical habitat for the spider are within the boundaries of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP); the Pisgah National Forest, and the Cherokee National Forest; and an area privately owned but is being managed by The Nature Conservancy through an agreement with the landowner. Therefore, suitable habitat for the Spruce -fir moss spider is not present in the project site. Clams Appalachian Elktoe The Appalachian Elktoe (Alasmidonta raveneliana), is a freshwater mussel that is endemic to North Carolina and Tennessee, and is listed as Endangered in both states. Attaining lengths of up to 4 inches, and with a brownish -yellow shell coloration, the Appalachian Elktoe requires high Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 7 June 11, 2020 quality waters that are cool, well -oxygenated and fast flowing. As no such waters are found within the project area, no Appalachian Elktoe are found on site. 4.0 WATERSHED CLASSIFICATION AND BUFFER REQUIREMENTS According to the NCDEQ, the Project is in the 8 digit HUC 06010106, French Broad River, the 10 digit HUC 0601010602, Richland Creek -Pigeon River, and 12 Digit HUC 060101060202, Lower Richland Creek. Mandatory vegetative riparian buffers are not required by the NCDEQ based on the site locality in a specific river basin or watershed. However, based on our observations, potentially jurisdictional surface waters that may be subject to vegetative buffers are located on the site. Development or stormwater setbacks that are specific to the proposed development of the Project could be required by the NCDEQ. Consultation with the local zoning authority is recommended to determine site specific vegetation buffers adjacent to the features located on the site prior to submittal of zoning approval 5.0 RESULTS 5.1 WoUS On May 30th and 31st, CEC scientists Kevin Thomas, Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) and North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist (NCLSS) and David Campbell Professional Botanist, performed potential WoUS determinations and delineation, along with a Protective Species Habitat Assessments within the Project Area. Based on the results of the WoUS investigation, there are two features that would likely be considered potentially jurisdictional WoUS within the Project Area (Figure 6). The results of the Protective Species Habitat Assessment indicated there were no favorable habitat for Protected Species (Figure 3 & Attachment C). Streams One potential jurisdictional stream channels exist within the Project Areas (Figure 6; Table 1). The on -site streams origin begins within the on -site wetland, flows along the eastern portion of the Project Area in a northeastern direction, and appears to be culverted and buried near the Project Areas northeast boundary. The on -site stream appeared to maintain base flow throughout the portions observed within the Project Area, with weak to moderate geomorphological, hydrological, and biological characteristics that included soil based evidence of high water table, iron oxidizing bacteria, and weak to moderate continuity of channel bed and bank (Attachment B). Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 8 June 11, 2020 Table 1- Summary of on -site Non -Wetland Waters of the United States within the Project Area Jurisdictional Stream SCP NC DEQ Classification NC DEQ Score(s) Photograph(s) Linear Footage SA 1 SCP 1 Intermittent 25.5 6, 7, 8 & 9 447 Stream Total 447 * Rounded up to nearest whole number Wetlands One potential jurisdictional wetland, Wetland Area (WA) 1, was identified within the Project Area (Figure 6, and Table 2). The wetland originates off -site of the Project, along the southern portion of the Project Areas boundary, and appears to be the hydrologic source to the on -site stream identified. WA 1 at DP I Wet at the time of the investigation, the potential wetland had surface water or saturated soil. The potential wetland was dominated by herbs and grasses, Iron Weed (Vernonia noveboracensis), Sallow sedge (Carex lurida), Spike Rush (Eleocharis spp.), Smartweed (Persicaria spp.), Cardinal Flower (Lobelia cardinalis) Monkey Flower (Mimulus ringens) with very few trees present, with the dominant being Box Elder (Acer negundo). These plants are typically associated with wetlands. The soils display faint to prominent redox concentrations with a depleted matrix, and meet jurisdictional standards for wetland (hydric) soils (Figure 6, Attachments A & C; photographs 3, 4 & 5).

These upland areas were dominated by red clover in the pastures, greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia), and other mixed hard woods along the property fringes and up slope of the on -site stream channel. Soils in the upland areas exhibited bright red to orange soils with no indication of features associated with streams or wetlands. Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc. Mr. Dean Boik — BC Construction Group 289 Maple Grove Church Road, Waynesville, NC CEC Project 302-078 Page 9 June 11, 2020 5.2 Protected Species Habitat Assessment The project area consists largely of agricultural lands that have been under some form of clearance and/or cultivation for many decades. Single large individuals of Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) occur scattered at various points within the site. Small corridors of vegetation that have not succumbed to the herbivory of horses include small individuals of Black Cherry (Prunus serotina), Sassafras (Sassafras albidum) and Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense) (Figure 3 & Attachment C; photographs 6, 7, 9 through 13). Remnant small woodlots appear to be degraded examples of the Montane Oak -Hickory Forest (Basic Subtype) as defined by Schafale (2012) and include species typical of basic soils such as Spicebush (Lindera benzoin), Shingle Oak (Quercus imbricaria), Black Walnut (Juglans nigra), White Oak (Quercus alba), Mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum) and Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis). Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), and Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) were commonly encountered woody vines. There is also a small intermittent stream on site, with an associated small wetland. Trees found in wooded riparian areas include Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana), Box Elder (Acer negundo), and Swamp Red Maple (Acer rubrum var. triolobum). Wet meadow sections of stream and wetland feature Soft Rush (Juncus effusus), Southern Agrimony (Agrimonia parviflora), Blunt Broom Sedge (Carex tribuloides var. tribuloides), Arrowleaf Tearthumb (Persicaria sagittata), and Common Dwarf St. John's Wort (Hypericum mutilum var. mutilum). Due to the prolonged history of human disturbance within the project boundaries, previous natural community types have been heavily impacted and transformed. As a result, there is no habitat present that would be suitable for any of the species of concern mentioned within this document. 6.0 RECONIMENDATIONS This Report provided by CEC represents our best professional judgment regarding the potential of on -site wetlands, streams, and other water features, at the time of the investigation that can be used for preliminary project planning only. However, until a Jurisdictional Determination (JD) is issued by the regulatory agency USACE, these findings can only be considered preliminary and is not an official governmental approval. CEC recommends that before any construction or other earth disturbance activities occur on site, a formal JD should be obtained from the USACE. Civii & Environmental Consultants, Inc.
