In this evaluation only species that have a Federal Status are discussed. Therefore, species of concern for this quad are the freshwater mussels: Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorate) and Carolina Creekshell (villosa vaughaniana); vascular plants: Carolina Birdfoot-trefoil (Acmispon helleri) and Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii). The Carolina Creekshell and Carolina Heelsplitter are listed as current and require a perennial stream habitat. The disturbed streams on this site are not expected to provide habitat for endangered mussels. The focus of this study was only on terrestrial species. The vascular plants of concern are the federally Carolina Birdfoot-trefoil, which requires an open habitat with little shade. Such habitat would include roadsides, power-line rights- of-way (PLROW), woodland and field edges.

A majority of the upland appears to have been previously worked by equipment and contains mostly fill material. There is one large non- jurisdictional, deeply eroded and disturbed gully/swale feature leading from Hwy 21 to the wetland designated A/B/D on the attached Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. map. The rest of the upland contains road edge, woodland edge and a field that encompasses greater than 2/3 of the south part of the site. The species present within the upland pasture/edge are as follows: Olive (Elaeagnus umbellate), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera Japonica), eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana), shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata), loblolly pine (P. taeda), Virginia pine (P. virginiana), black cherry (Prunus serotina), white oak (Quercus alba), willow oak (Q. phellos), red oak (Q. rubra), smooth sumac (Rhus glabra), Carolina rose (Rosa carolina), big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii), brommsedge bluestem (Andropogon virginicus), shortbeard plumegrass (Erianthus contortus), hyssopleaf thoroughwort (Eupatorium hyssopifolium), and goldentop (Solidago sp.). A majority of the mesic mix forest/riparian/wet land areas appear to have been impacted by previous site work - both from recent work and historic agricultural practices. There is a pond onsite that is bisected by the property line on the north. The pond has been created by the installation of a dam and the RPW C depicted on the attached Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. map appears to be a man-made channel for pond overflow. The wetland A/B/D has no doubt been impacted by previous site work and the upper part (E1 - 4) of the RPW E has rip/rap lining and covering the stream. The is a large culvert in the RPW E also shown on the attached Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. map. The species present within the mesic mix forest/riparian/wetland areas are as follows: Red maple (Acer rubrum), river birch (Betula nigra), silky dogwood (Cornus amomum), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), cottonwood (Populus deltoidis), black willow (Salix nigra), paw-paw (Asimina triloba), tag alder (Alnus serrulata), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), upright sedge (Carex stricta), common rush (Juncus efMsus), cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis), woolgrass (Scirpus cyperinus), and cattail (Typha latifolia). 4 Beacon Partners - Statesville Road: Terrestrial and Endangered Species Survey Endangered Species Results: Although potential habitat exists for Carolina Birdfoot-trefoil and the Schweinitz's Sunflower on the PLROW, field and woodland edges, these species were not found. Recommendations: There are no terrestrial species of concern on the site. At this time there are no recommendations.

RHA SECTION 10 DETERMINATION OF JURISDICTION. There Are no "navigable waters of the U.S." within Rivers and Harbors Act, (RHA) jurisdiction (as defined by 33 CFR part 329) in the review area. [Required] Waters subject to the ebb and flow of the tide. Waters are presently used, or have been used in the past, or may be susceptible for use to transport interstate or foreign commerce. Explain: B. CWA SECTION 404 DETERMINATION OF JURISDICTION. There Are "waters of the U.S." within Clean Water Act (CWA) jurisdiction (as defined by 33 CFR part 328) in the review area. [Required] 1. Waters of the U.S. a. Indicate presence of waters of U.S. in review area (check all that apply):' TNWs, including territorial seas Wetlands adjacent to TNWs Relatively permanent waters'` (RPWs) that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs Non-RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into T NWs Wetlands directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs Q Wetlands adjacent to but not directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs Wetlands adjacent to non-RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs Impoundments of jurisdictional waters Isolated (interstate or intrastate) waters, including isolated wetlands Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below. For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year-round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally" (e.g., typically 3 months). b. Identify (estimate) size of waters of the U.S. in the review area: Non-wetland waters: 3231inear feet: 3width (ft) and/or 0.028 acres. Wetlands: 0.199 acres. c. Limits (boundaries) of jurisdiction based on: 1987:AeUneadon Manual Elevation of established OHWM (if known): 2. Non-regulated waters/wetlands (check if applicable):; Potentially jurisdictional waters and/or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to be not jurisdictional. Explain: The large gully/swale leading from Statesville Road to the wetland A/B/D was determined to be non- jurisdictional because it did not meet the 1987 Delineation Manual criteria. It is an eroded gully/swale feature.. 1 Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F. SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2 and Section III.D.I.; otherwise, see Section III.B below. 1. TNW Identify TNW: Summarize rationale supporting determination: 2. Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent": B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY): This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanov have been met. The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non-navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3 months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round (perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow, skip to Section III.D.4. A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law. If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.C below. 1. Characteristics of non-TNWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNW (i) General Area Conditions: Watershed size: 2350square_inles Drainage area: 70 `acres Average annual rainfall: 44 inches Average annual snowfall: 3 inches (ii) Physical Characteristics: (a) Relationship with TNW: ? Tributary flows directly into TNW. ® Tributary flows through ? tributaries before entering TNW. Project waters are 10-15 river miles from TNW. Project waters are I (or less) river miles from RPW. Project waters are 5-10 aerial (straight) miles from TNW. Project waters are 1 (oress) aerial (straight) miles from RPW. Project waters cross or serve as state boundaries. Explain: Identify flow route to TNW5: RPWs flow into Long Creek, then into the Catawba River. Tributary stream order, if known: 1 st. 4 Note that the Instructional Guidebook contains additional information regarding swales, ditches, washes, and erosional features generally and in the and West. 5 Flow route can be described by identifying, e.g., tributary a, which flows through the review area, to flow into tributary b, which then flows into TNW. (b) General Tributary Characteristics (check all that apply): Tributary is: ? Natural ? Artificial (man-made). Explain: ® Manipulated (man-altered). Explain: The RPW C and the upper portion of the RPW E have been altered. RPW E has rip/rap lining the stream. RPW C appears to be a man-made channel leading from the pond.. Tributary properties with respect to top of bank (estimate): Average width: 3 feet Average depth: 3 feet Average side slopes: U. Primary tributary substrate composition (check all that apply): ? Silts ® Sands ? Concrete ? Cobbles ® Gravel ? Muck ? Bedrock ® Vegetation. Type/% cover: 100% over RPWs ® Other. Explain: one culvert exists. Tributary condition/stability [e.g., highly eroding, sloughing banks]. Explain: Slightly eroding banks. Presence of run/riffle/pool complexes. Explain: None. Tributary geometry: Relatively strait Tributary gradient (approximate average slope): 0.5 % (c) Flow: Tributary provides for: go-w- 110 thaw Estimate average number of flow events in review area/year: 4-10 Describe flow regime: The RPW C has a regulated flow from the pond water. The RPW E has a regulated flow from the wetland A/B/D. Other information on duration and volume: Surface flow is: 1iBCt%tC;&11#d.tl. Characteristics: Subsurface flow: ?Ja u Yn. Explain findings: ?

Discontinuous OHWM.7 Explain: If factors other than the OHWM were used to determ High Tide Line indicated by: ? oil or scum line along shore objects ? fine shell or debris deposits (foreshore) ? physical markings/characteristics ? tidal gauges ? other (list): the presence of litter and debris destruction of terrestrial vegetation the presence of wrack line sediment sorting scour multiple observed or predicted flow events abrupt change in plant community ine lateral extent of CWA jurisdiction (check all that apply) Mean High Water Mark indicated by: ? survey to available datum; ? physical markings; ? vegetation lines/changes in vegetation types. (iii) Chemical Characteristics: Characterize tributary (e.g., water color is clear, discolored, oily film; water quality; general watershed characteristics, etc.). Explain: Clear. Identify specific pollutants, if known: None known, but adjacent parking lot run-off is probable. 'A natural or man-made discontinuity in the OH WM does not necessarily sever jurisdiction (e.g., where the stream temporarily flows underground, or where the OH WM has been removed by development or agricultural practices). Where there is a break in the OH WM that is unrelated to the waterbody's flow regime (e.g., flow over a rock outcrop or through a culvert), the agencies will look for indicators of flow above and below the break.

Explain findings: ® Aquatic/wildlife diversity. Explain findings:None noted due to time of year (cold), however it is very probable that amphibians and crayfish are present. 3. Characteristics of all wetlands adjacent to the tributary (if any) All wetland(s) being considered in the cumulative analysis: Approximately ( 0.199 ) acres in total are being considered in the cumulative analysis. For each wetland, specify the following: Directly abuts? (Y/N) Size (in acres) Directly abuts?

SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW. Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus. Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example: • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW? Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below: 1. Significant nexus findings for non-RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D: 2. Significant nexus findings for non-RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non-RPW flows directly or indirectly into TN Ws. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III.D: 3. Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section 111.D: D.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS TO SUPPORT JD: SECTION III, D(7): Impoundments of jurisdictional waters - the pond that is partially on site has been created by the construction of a dam some time in the past. If the dam was not present, it is probable that the jurisdictional water would be returned to a groundwater spring/wetland/RPW. It appears that the pond is spring fed because the small drainage area leading to it may not be adequate to keep it as full as it was at the time of the site visit. .
