David/Michael,
The Service recommends you survey any potentially suitable habitat on the whole site. This would prevent
the unauthorized take of endangered species which would be a violation of the Endangered Species Act.

Hi Michael, and thanks for your email. Currently the only disclosed 404 impact would be the proposed road crossing
over Stream ISA/SA. However, per item 3 in my email dated 7/9/2020, it appears that wetland impacts may be proposed
for access to Lot 3. In this case, the Corps ESA action area would be limited to the waters of the United States that would
be directly affected by the proposed work and uplands directly affected as a result of authorizing the work. As such, and
given the USFWS concerns regarding suitable Schweinitz's sunflower and small whorled pogonia habitat, please
complete a pedestrian survey for these species within the Corps ESA action area. In this case, the Corps ESA action area
would be contained within a 100 foot radius of the footprint of proposed impacts to waters of the US. Following the
survey, please provide the survey report to the Corps (copy also the USFWS) for review.
Please direct any questions regarding the Corps ESA action area to me. Please direct any questions regarding
appropriate survey techniques and information to include in a survey report to John Ellis with the USFWS.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Good Morning David,
Please advise on how the USACE will require me to proceed. Will this be for the impact area or the whole site?
Sincerely,

Good morning,
In reviewing the PCN again, I noticed it states suitable habitat is not present at the site for federally -listed plant species.
Looking at Google Earth, suitable habitat for at least Schweinitz's sunflower and potential small whorled pogonia may be
present. In conferring with USFWS, they stated surveys may be warranted. Please contact Dale Suiter and John Ellis
(cc'd) on how to proceed. Thank you,
Olivia
