Dear Mr. Bunge:
Pilot Environmental, Inc. (Pilot) is pleased to submit this report of the wetland delineation for the
approximate 596 acre tract located along Country Club Road in Yadkinville, Yadkin County, North
Carolina.
Background
Wetlands are defined by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the United
States 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 typically adapted for life in saturated soil
conditions." In order for an area to be classified as wetland, hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils,
and wetland hydrology indicators must be present.
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act regulates the discharge of dredge and fill materials into waters
of the United States (lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, etc.), including wetlands. Waters of the United
States include the territorial seas, navigable coastal and inland lakes, rivers and streams,
intermittent streams, and wetlands. The EPA and the USACE jointly administer the Section 404
program. Section 401 of the Clean Water Act grants each state the authority to approve,
condition, or deny any Federal permits that could result in a discharge to State waters.
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 Resources (NCDEQ-DWR). Permits are required priorto
impacting any jurisdictional feature. The type of permit required is specific to the type, location

and amount of impacts. Stormwater management plans and/or mitigation for proposed impacts
could be a requirement of the permit approval process.
The findings and conclusions found in this report are our opinions based on field conditions
encountered at the time of the site visit. Changes including, but not limited to, regulations,
weather, timber/vegetation removal and usage/development of the site or nearby properties
can alter the findings and opinions presented in this report. We recommend that this report only
be used for preliminary planning purposes. Agency verifications, followed by a survey of
jurisdictional features, are required to determine the exact extent and locations of jurisdictional
features and are valid for a period of up to five years following issuance of a USACE Jurisdictional
Determination (JD) and/or NCDEQ-DWR Site Determination Letter.
Global Positioning System (GPS) location of jurisdictional features has been conducted by Pilot
personnel in the field utilizing a Trimble handheld GPS unit capable of sub -meter accuracy. Field
GPS data has been post -processed by Pilot personnel and digitally provided to the client for
assistance with preliminary planning. Pilot expresses no warranties or liabilities to the accuracy
of GPS locations and/or provided GPS data.
Scope of Services
Pilot was contracted to perform a wetland delineation for the approximate 596 acre tract located
along Country Club Road in Yadkinville, Yadkin County, North Carolina. The site consists of
fourteen parcels identified by the Yadkin County Geographical Information System (GIS) as Parcel
Identification Numbers (PINS) 580800926184, 581800038619, 581800048150, 581800049419,
581800140879, 581800154721, 581700367810, 581700362604,581700372302, 581700174078,
581700381065, 581700283931, 5818114449 and 5808916149. The site is being evaluated for
proposed development with a solar farm. The scope of services included a delineation of
jurisdictional features (streams, wetlands and other surface waters) located on the site. The site
boundary was not marked at the time of our field delineation. The site boundary was provided in a
Google Earth digital file.
Pilot was also contracted to perform a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) and a Limited
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Review in conjunction with the wetland delineation.
Details of these investigations are included in separate reports.
Literature Review
We reviewed the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Topographic Map, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Soil Survey of Yadkin County, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Map and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM).

• The USGS Topographic Map (Drawing 1) depicts North Deep Creek crossing the southwestern
portion of the site. A pond is depicted on the northwestern portion of the site. Unnamed
tributaries to North Deep Creek are located on the northern and central portions of the site.
Other surface waters or wetlands are not depicted on the site. Additional drainage swales that
could contain surface waters or wetlands are depicted on the site.
The USDA Web Soil Survey of Yadkin County (Drawing 2) identifies the following soil mapping
units on the site: Clifford fine sandy loam (CaB and CaQ Clifford sandy clay loam (CcB2 & CcC2),
Clifford clay loam (Ce133), Clifford gravelly fine sandy loam (CgB), Codorus loam (CrA), Dan River
and Codorus Soils (DhA), Dan River sandy loam (DeA), Danripple fine sandy loam (Da132), Delila
fine sandy loam (DoB), Fairview fine sandy loam (FaD and FaE), Fairview sandy clay loam (FdD2
and FdE2), Fairview clay loam (FeC3, FeD3 and FeE3), Fairview gravelly fine sandy loam (FgD2),
Fairview-Gullied Land Complex (FhD), Hatboro loam (HaA), Hatboro Soils (HsA), Jackland loam
(JaC), Nathalie fine sandy loam (NaB), Siloam sandy loam (SmE, SmE3 and SmF), Starr loam (StB),
Toast fine sandy loam (TaE), Toast sandy clay loam (TeE2), Tomlin sandy clay loam (TnC2 and
TnE2) and Woolwine-Fairview-Westfield Complex (WwF). The Clifford, Fairview, Tomlin,
Nathalie and Westfield series consists of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on
ridges and hill sides. The Codorus series consists of moderately well to somewhat poorly
drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on nearly level floodplains. The Dan River series
consists of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on floodplains. The Danripple
series consists of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on stream terraces and
low hills. The Delila series consists of poorly drained, slowly permeable soils that occur on ridges
and within swales. The Hatboro series consists of poorly drained soils that occur on nearly level
floodplains. The Jackland series consists of moderately well drained to somewhat poorly
drained, very slowly permeable soils that occur on broad convex ridges and slopes. The Siloam
series consists of well drained, moderately slowly permeable soils that occur on ridges and hill
sides. The Starr series consists of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on slight
depressions, around drain heads, on terraces and on foot slopes or fans. The Toast and
Woolwine series consist of well drained, moderately permeable soils that occur on hills, ridges
and interfluves. The CrA, DoB, HaA and HsA soil mapping units are identified on the Yadkin
County Hydric Soils List. The remaining soil mapping units are not identified on the Yadkin
County Hydric Soils List.
Pilot also reviewed the last published USDA Soil Survey of Yadkin County (Drawing 2A). The map
depicts streams on the site, generally consistent with those shown on the USGS Topographic
Map. Additional streams are shown in drainage swales on the central and southern portions of
the site. Other surface waters or wetlands are not identified on the site.
The USFWS NWI Map (Drawing 3) depicts two freshwater ponds on the northwestern portion
of the site. Riverine features are depicted on the northern, central and southwestern portions
of the site and along a portion of the southeastern site boundary. Other surface waters or
wetlands are not depicted on the site.

• Pilot reviewed the FEMA FIRM for the site (Drawing 4). The FEMA FIRM identifies the 100 year
floodplain on the southwestern and central portions of the site. The remainder of the site is
identified as being outside the 100 year floodplain.
Field Delineation
Pilot personnel conducted the field delineation of Tract A on July 27 and 28, 2018 and the
delineation of Tract B on December 26 through January 9, 2019. Several dilapidated agricultural
structures and an abandoned single family residence are located on the northern portion of the
site. Several agricultural structures are located on the central portion of the site. A single family
residence and two associated outbuildings, and a dilapidated agricultural structure are located
on the southwestern portion of the site. A dilapidated single family residence and several
dilapidated agricultural structures are located on the southeastern portion of the site. Country
Club Road crosses the western portion of the site and Long Farm Road crosses the northern
portion of the site. Overhead electricity lines and an associated easement cross the southern
portion of the site. The remainder of the site contains agricultural fields and wooded land.
Two ponds are located on the northern and western portions of the site. The ponds are
hydrologically connected to down -gradient surface waters and/or wetlands. Based on our
observations, the ponds would be considered to be regulated by the USACE. Pilot personnel geo-
located the ordinary high water marks of the ponds with a Trimble handheld GPS unit.
Streams are located on the northeastern, central and southwestern portions of the site. The
streams contain indicators of ordinary high water marks, strongly defined beds and banks and
meanders. With the exception of streams designated as ISA, ISB, ISF and ISG, the streams
contained flowing water and aquatic life at the time of our site visits. Based on our observations,
it is our opinion that the streams designated as ISA, ISB, ISF and ISG are intermittent and the
remainder of the streams located on the site are perennial. The stream extents were marked in
the field with blue and white striped surveyor tape and the streams centerlines were geo-located
with a Trimble handheld GPS unit.
Wetland pockets are located on the north -central, central and southern portions of the site. The
wetlands are separated from surrounding uplands by distinct topographic, vegetative and/or soil
breaks. Wetland Determination Data Forms, supporting our opinions, are included as
attachments. The wetland boundary was marked in the field with red and white striped surveyor
tape and geo-located with a Trimble handheld GPS unit.
Photographs that show general site conditions observed during the site reconnaissance are
included as attachments.

Watershed Classification/Buffer Requirements
The site is located in the Yadkin River Basin. North Deep Creek and several of its unnamed
tributaries cross the site. The NCDEQ-DWR has classified North Deep Creek as class C waters. In
accordance with NCAC 02B .0200, the ponds and streams located on the site are not subject to
state regulated riparian buffers.
Pilot contacted the Yadkin County Planning and Development Department to determine if local
buffers apply to surface waters or wetlands. According to Ms. Dawn Vallieres, Director with the
Yadkin County Planning and Development Department, Yadkin County surface water buffer
requirements are generally consistent with those of the state.
According to the NCDEQ-DWR Interactive Stormwater Map, the site is located in an area
identified as "No Program; Verify Locally." Therefore, we recommend consultation with the local
zoning authority to determine if the proposed development on the site requires development
buffers/setbacks from surface waters for compliance with state and local stormwater
requirements.
Agency Verification
The delineation has been verified by USACE JD SAW-2019-00099, dated March 12, 2019. Drawing
5 shows the approximate locations of the ponds, streams (including our designations), wetlands
and data points. Drawing 5 should be used for preliminary planning purposes only. We
understand that our flags and regulated features will be surveyed to determine the exact extent
and locations of regulated features on the site. A copy of the USACE JD has been provided under
separate cover.
