Roden-Reynolds, Johnson, Wojoski, and Hamstead, Enclosed is a submittal for a Nationwide Permit #29 for The Hills site on 63.29 acres located southeast of the intersection of Asbury Chapel Road and Autumncrest Road in Huntersville, NC. The site is a proposed residential development and consists of seven streams and seven wetlands. A preliminary jurisdictional determination was submitted on September 7, 2018 and the site was field-verified by David Shaeffer on October 19, 2018. A previous nationwide permit was submitted and approved for this site under a different applicant (SAW-2018-01790; 5/20/19, DWR-19-0440; 4/16/19). Please refer to the Jurisdictional Determination section for updated information on onsite surface waters and to the Approvals section for information on the previous 401/404 approvals. The development of this site has been taken over by a new applicant and modified layout has been designed by a new engineering team. As shown on the attached exhibits, the proposed revised plan will include permanent impacts to one stream and three wetlands due to road 2 crossings and utility installation. Total permanent impacts proposed include 137 linear feet of stream impact (Streams N) and 0.055 acres of wetland impacts (Wetland O, Wetland S, and Wetland Z). Additional minor temporary impacts will be required for construction access and utility installation to be restored to pre-existing conditions as noted on the exhibits. Impacts to site surface waters associated with the proposed development were limited through site selection location, design, and the location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes. Roadway alignments have been designed to meet safety and connectivity requirements (sight- distance, traffic volume, ingress/egress, etc.) while avoiding a large, high-quality wetland complex. A large portion of the site will remain as undeveloped green space, including a large riparian corridor along the site’s east side. Poured-in-place headwalls will be utilized at each crossing to minimize culvert lengths. Retaining walls will be used to minimize grading and avoid additional wetland impacts. Stabilizing rip rap, where needed, will be placed above the OHWM to avoid additional impacts and utilities will be bored wherever feasible. The applicant has demonstrated substantial avoidance and minimization efforts in which 92% of the 0.7 ac of wetlands onsite and 96% of the 3,500 lf of streams onsite will be avoided. Due to the limited amount of permanent impacts associated with this project, the extensive avoidance and minimization measures taken, and the large amount of bottomland and forested upland habitat to remain undeveloped, no compensatory mitigation is proposed. Also enclosed is a copy of our Threatened/Endangered Species Evaluation for the site. No listed species were identified within the project area and we believe that there will be no effect on listed species, or their critical habitat as designated under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. Please refer to the Threatened and Endangered Species Evaluation Section for additional details on the terrestrial species evaluation.

Gaffney February 20, 2017 *Updated September 3, 2020 Asbury Chapel – The Hills Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation #00789 2 GENERAL LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION: The Asbury Chapel – The Hills property (61.85 acres) is located just east a of Asbury Chapel Road, and just south of Autumn Crest Road in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. It can be found on the Cornelius, NC USGS Topographic Quadrangle Map; latitude is 35.4031 N, longitude is 80.7988 W. The site is covered with successional woods and pine stands and is disturbed throughout. The topography is gently to moderately sloping with the elevation ranging from 650 to 780 ft. (Figure 1). Figure 1: Asbury Chapel – The Hills Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation #00789 3 METHODOLOGY: The US Fish and Wildlife Service website https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/species/cntylist/mecklenburg.html was referenced to determine the occurrence of Threatened, Endangered and Protected species for Mecklenburg County North Carolina, the results of which are listed below (Table 1). Maps and aerial photographs were assembled, and the site was investigated during the weeks of January 30, 2017 and September 1, 2020 Table 1: Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species listed for Mecklenburg County County: Mecklenburg, NC *Source: US Fish & Wildlife Service **Data search on January 30, 2017 ***Updated September 1, 2020 Group Name Status Record Status Invertebrate Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) Endangered Current Invertebrate Rusty-patched Bumble Bee (Bombus affinis) Endangered Historic Vascular Plants Smooth Coneflower (Echinacea laevigata) Endangered Current Vascular Plants Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) Endangered Current Vascular Plants Michaux's Sumac (Rhus michauxii) Endangered Current Vertebrate Northern Long-Eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis) Threatened Probable/Potential Vertebrate Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) Protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act Current Asbury Chapel – The Hills Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation #00789 4 SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS: A total of three plant species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in Mecklenburg County: • Schweinitz’s Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), listed as Federally Endangered, is typically found in open habitats which historically have been maintained by wildfires and grazing bison and elk herds. Now most occurrences are limited to roadsides, woodland and field edges, and utility rights-of-way (ROW). • Smooth Coneflower (Echinacea laevigata), listed as Federally Endangered, is typically found in open woods, cedar barrens, roadsides, clear cuts, dry limestone bluffs and power line rights-of-way, requiring abundant sunlight and little competition from other plant species. • Michaux’s Sumac (Rhus michauxii), listed as Federally Endangered, requires habitat of sandy forests and woodland edges. This species requires periodic fire as a part of its ecology. A total of four animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in Mecklenburg County: • Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, typically inhabits forested areas near large bodies of open water such as lakes, marshes, seacoasts and rivers, where there are suitable fish populations and tall trees for nesting and roosting. • Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), listed as Federally Endangered, is restricted to cool, clean, well-oxygenated water. Stable, silt- free stream beds are required for this species. Typically, stable areas occur where the stream banks are well-vegetated with trees and shrubs. • Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis), listed as Federally Threatened. During summer, northern long-eared bats roost singly or in colonies underneath bark, in cavities, or in crevices of both live and dead trees. Males and non- reproductive females may also roost in cooler places, like caves and mines. It has also been found, rarely, roosting in structures like barns and sheds. Northern long-eared bats spend winter hibernating in caves and mines, called hibernacula. • Rusty-patched Bumble Bee (Bombus affinis), listed as Federally Endangered, live in colonies that include a single queen and female workers. Rusty-patched Bumble Bees historically occupied grasslands and tallgrass prairies. Bumble bees need areas that provide nectar and pollen from flowers, nesting sites (underground and abandoned rodent cavities or clumps of grasses), and overwintering sites for hibernating queens (undisturbed soil). Asbury Chapel – The Hills Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation #00789 5 RESULTS: The site is a patchwork of mixed hardwood forested slopes and timbered uplands planted in Loblolly Pine groves. There are old logging roads traversing the site. The upland flats and gentle slopes are composed mostly of Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda) stands with successional hardwoods mixed within the canopy and subcanopy, and grades into a hardwood dominated forest on the steeper slopes and drainages. Some of the largest trees are over 3 ft. in diameter, with the average diameter at breast height (DBH) at 18”, but with a great deal of variation in DBH overall. Canopy trees include Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda), Shortleaf Pine (P. echinata), Virginia Pine (P. virginiana), White Oak (Quercus alba), Northern Red Oak (Q. rubra), Southern Red Oak (Q. falcata), Black Oak (Q. velutina), Willow Oak (Q. phellos), Post Oak (Q. stellata), Mockernut Hickory (C. tomentosa), Pignut Hickory (C. glabra), Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), with Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) and Cottonwood (Populus deltoides) occurring on the lowest slopes. The subcanopy contains Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), American Beech (Fagus grandifolia), Ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), American Holly (Ilex opaca), Red Maple (Acer rubrum), Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida), Hackberry (Celtis laevigata), Redbud (Cercis canadensis), Red Mulberry (Morus rubra), Black Gum (Nyssa sylvatica), Winged Elm (Ulmus alata), and Black Cherry (Prunus serotina), with Ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), and River Birch (Betula nigra) occurring on the lower slopes. The shrub layer includes Spicebush (Lindera benzoin), Viburnum (Viburnum spp.), Blueberry (Vaccinium sp.), Paw Paw (Asimina triloba), Autumn Olive (Elaeagnus umbellata), and Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense). Vines present are Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Trumpet Creeper (Campsis radicans), Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), and Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans). The herb layer is sparse on the drier uplands and slopes, becoming more prominent on the lower slopes and drainages, and includes Christmas Fern (Polystichum acrostichoides), Spotted Wintergreen (Chimaphila maculata), Dayflower (Commelina sp.), Bedstraw (Galium sp.), River Oats (Chasmanthium latifolium), and Japanese Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum). The roadsides and old logging roads are dominated by shrubs, vines and herbs that typically occur in this habitat. Woody species present are small tree saplings of Pines, Sweet-gum and Tulip Poplar, and shrubs of Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Russian Olive, Chinese Privet, Smooth Sumac (Rhus glabra), and Groundsel Tree (Baccharis halimifolia). Herbs present are Johnson Grass (Sorghum halepense), Plume Grass (Erianthus contortus), Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), Rabbit Tobacco (Gnaphalium obtusifolium), Goldenrod (Solidago sp.), Beggars Ticks (Desmodium sp.), and Thoroughwort (Eupatorium sp.). Asbury Chapel – The Hills Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation #00789 6 Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results • All potential habitats for Schweinitz’s Sunflower, Michaux’s Sumac and Smooth Coneflower along the roadsides, old logging roads and woods edges were examined and none of these species were present. • No habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there were no sightings nor were any nesting sites observed. • The on-site streams do not have the habitat characteristics required to support populations of the Carolina Heelsplitter. Based on existing documentation, Carolina Heelsplitter populations have not been identified within this basin. No individuals were observed during the survey nor would any be expected on-site. • Comparing this site location to the USFWS Asheville office’s website (http://www.fws.gov/asheville/htmls/project_review/NLEB_in_WNC.html) it appears that the site meets the “exempt” criteria which requires no further action under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for the Northern Long-eared Bat. • Comparing this site location to the USFWS Range Map for Rusty-patched Bumble Bee (https://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/insects/rpbb/rpbbmap.html) Mecklenburg County is in its Historic Range, and as such, Section 7 consultation is not needed. WEPG concludes that Rusty-patched Bumble Bee is not present. RECOMMENDATIONS: Based on the site investigation and the review of available data, WEPG did not identify any protected species occurring on the subject property. No further investigation of the presence of protected species on this site is recommended at this time. Respectfully submitted, _________________ Lisa R.

Further, summary information about the activity including administrative history of actions taken during project evaluation is attached (ORM2 summary). 1.1 Applicant name: KB Homes Charlotte, Inc., Bill Kiselick 1.2 Activity location:Latitude: 35.4031 Longitude: -80.7988 Location description: The project area is located on the southwest corner of the intersection of Autumncrest Road and Ashbury Chapel Road. PINs: 02103104, 02103138, 02103108, 02103107, and 02103132. Reference review area description shown in Pre-Construction shown in Pre-Construction Notification entitled “Aerial Map” and dated 12/03/20. 1.3 Description of activity requiring verification:This verification would authorize the permanent stream impacts of 137 linear feet and 0.055 acres of wetland along with temporary stream and wetland impacts of 39 linear feet and 0.051 acres, respectively, to facilitate the construction of a residential development. All temporary stream and wetland impacts will be restored to pre-existing conditions after the completion of construction. 1.4 Is this an After-the-Fact verification? No. 1.5 Date PCN determined complete for processing: 1/11/2021 1.6 Jurisdiction Determination completed? A Preliminary JD was completed on 5/20/2019. 1.7 Permit authority: Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344) 1.8 Applicable Permit: NWP 29. Residential Developments 1.9 Activity requires written waiver of NWP limits? No. 1.10 Activity requires a waiver from the requirements of a regional condition(s)? No. 2.0 Evaluation of the Pre-Construction Notification 2.1 Direct and indirect effects caused by the GP activity: The direct effects of the proposed activity in waters would include the loss of jurisdictional waters (as specified in Section 1.3) and their associated aquatic resource functions. The proposed activity also has the potential to result in indirect effects to waters including excess sedimentation in downstream waters, disruption and/or killing of aquatic life in the direct vicinity of the project area, increase of downstream flows, and blocking/restricting aquatic life passage transiting in and through the project area. These indirect effects are expected to be minimal due to design criteria and Best Management Practices (BMPs) required by Nationwide Permit General and Regional Conditions. Additionally, indirect effects would be further reduced through the implementation of BMPs required by state, local, and Federal ordinances and regulations. 2.2 Site specific factors: The project area is part of a 907,087 acre watershed (8-digit HUC) that contains 4.63% impervious surfaces according to the 2016 National Land Cover Database. This area has a long history of intensive land use practices which has resulted in long term degradation to aquatic resources. Given the largely urban nature of the watershed, the waters within the project area provide important aquatic resource functions to downstream waters. The loss of these functions in this setting and in the proposed quantities necessitates compensatory mitigation to ensure that cumulative impacts to onsite and downstream aquatic resources are individually and cumulatively minimal. 2.3 Coordination 2.3.1 Was the PCN coordinated with other agencies? Yes. This PCN was coordinated with the USFWS for Section 7 ESA consultation. If yes, describe results including resolution of any concerns. Agency coordination with the USFWS is required for the Northern Long Eared Bat. However, the Corps is not required to wait for a response from the USFWS Asheville Office in accordance with local procedures. 2.3.2 Was the PCN coordinated with other Corps offices? No. 2.4 Mitigation 2.4.1 Provide brief description of how the activity has been designed on-site to avoid and minimize adverse effects, both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum extent practicable at the project site:The applicant provided a detailed statement describing their efforts to avoid and minimized impacts to waters of the United States on the project site in the preconstruction notification. Based on this information, the Corps believes the applicant has avoid and minimized impacts to waters of the United State to the maximum extent practicable. 2.4.2 Is compensatory mitigation required for unavoidable impacts to jurisdictional aquatic resources to reduce the individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects to a minimal level? No. Provide rationale: No compensatory mitigation is required because the applicant has minimized impacts and the loss of stream channel associated with the activity is less than 150 linear feet. There are no specific circumstances that would warrant compensatory mitigation. No compensatory mitigation is required because the applicant has minimized impacts and the loss of wetlands associated with the activity is less than 0.10 acre. There are no specific circumstances that would warrant compensatory mitigation. 3.0 Compliance with Other Laws, Policies and Requirements 3.1 Section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) 3.1.1 ESA action area: The action area includes the waters of the United States that will be directly affected by the proposed work or structures and uplands directly affected as a result of authorizing the work or structures. 3.1.2 Has another federal agency taken steps to document compliance with Section 7 of the ESA and completed consultation(s) as required? No. 3.1.3 Known species/critical habitat present? Yes. IPAC Species in Mecklenburg County: NAME: Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis) STATUS: Threatened NAME: Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) STATUS: Endangered NAME: Rusty-patched bumble bee (Bombus affinis) STATUS: Endangered NAME: Michaux’s sumac (Rhus michauxii) STATUS: Endangered NAME: Schweinitz’s sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) STATUS: Endangered NAME: Smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata) STATUS: Endangered Effect determination(s), including no effect, for all known species/habitat, and basis for determination(s): Based on the latest version of the Natural Heritage Program’s NHEO data, there are no protected species located within or in the vicinity of the action area. The project qualifies for the 4(d) rule for the Northern long eared bat. Based upon the NHEO data and a protected species report prepared by the agent, the Corps has determined the proposed activity will not directly or indirectly affect the remaining listed species subject to the ESA. 3.1.4 Consultation with either the National Marine Fisheries Service and/or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was initiated and completed as required, for any determinations other than “no effect” (see the attached “Summary” sheet for begin date, end date and closure method of the consultation). The USACE reviewed this project in accordance with (IAW) the NLEB Standard Local Operating Procedures for Endangered Species (SLOPES) between the USACE, Wilmington District, and the Asheville and Raleigh U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) Offices, and determined that the action area for this project is located outside of the highlighted areas/red 12-digit HUCs and activities in the action area do not require prohibited incidental take; as such, this project meets the criteria for the 4(d) rule and any associated take is exempted/excepted. IAW the NLEB SLOPES, the USACE sent a Situation 1 email to the Service on 5/20/2019, informing them about this project. Service Concurrence: as established in the NLEB SLOPES, this project does not require prohibited intentional take of the NLEB and it meets the criteria for the 4(d) rule; therefore any associated take is exempt and it is not necessary for the USACE to wait 30 days for the Service to object or concur. Based on a review of the information above, the Corps has determined that it has fulfilled its responsibilities under Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA. 3.2 Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) The NWPs/RGPs were coordinated with the NMFS during the permit renewal process. NMFS coordination/EFH consultation is required if the activity affects SAV. This activity does not affect SAV. Therefore, NMFS coordination/EFH consultation has been completed. 3.2.1 Has another federal agency taken steps to comply with EFH provisions of Magnuson- Stevens Act? No. 3.2.2 Did the proposed project require review under the Magnuson-Stevens Act? No. 3.3 Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (Section 106) 3.3.1 Section 106 permit area:The permit area includes only those areas comprising waters of the United States that will be directly affected by the proposed work or structures. Activities outside of waters of the U.S. are not included because all three tests identified in 33 CFR 325, Appendix C(g)(1) have not been met. Final description of the permit area: The project only involves work within waters and does not include any work in areas outside of waters. 3.3.2 Has another federal agency taken steps to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and completed consultation(s) as required? No. 3.3.3 Known cultural resource sites present and/or survey or other additional information needed? No. Based on the NCDCR “HPOWEB” service, aerial photographs, and a site visit, there are no known historic properties located in the permit area or in close proximity to the permit area. Effect determination and basis for that determination: The Corps has determined the proposed activity has no potential to cause effects to properties listed or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, because the activitiy is limited in nature and scope. 3.3.4 Consultation was initiated and completed as required with the appropriate agencies, tribes and/or other parties for any determinations other than “no potential to cause effects” (see the attached “Summary” sheet for consultation type, begin date, end date and closure method of the consultation). The Corps has determined that it has fulfilled its responsibilities under Section 106 of the NHPA. 3.4 Tribal Trust Responsibilities 3.4.1 Was government-to-government consultation conducted with Federally-recognized Tribe(s)? No. There are no known tribal interests in the project area. Provide a description of any consultation(s) conducted including results and how concerns about significant effects to protected tribal resources, tribal rights and/or Indian lands were addressed. The Corps has determined that it has fulfilled its tribal trust responsibilities. 3.4.2 Other Tribal including any discussion of Tribal Treaty rights? N/A 3.5 Section 401 of the Clean Water Act – Water Quality Certification (WQC) 3.5.1 Is a Section 401 WQC required, and if so, has the certification been issued or waived? A general WQC has been issued for this permit. 3.6 Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) 3.6.1 Is a CZMA consistency concurrence required, and if so, has the concurrence been issued, waived or presumed? N/A, a CZMA consistency concurrence is not required. 3.7 Wild and Scenic Rivers Act 3.7.1 Is the projectlocated in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the system? No. According to http://www.rivers.gov, the proposed project area is not within a designated or study river. 3.8 Effects on Corps Civil Works Projects (33 USC 408) 3.8.1 Does the applicant also require permission under Section 14 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC 408) because the activity, in whole or in part, would alter, occupy, or use a Corps Civil Works project? No, there are no Corps Civil Works project(s) in or near the vicinity of the proposal. 4.0 Special Conditions 4.1 Are special conditions required to ensure minimal effects, protect the public interest and/or ensure compliance of the activity with any of the laws above? Yes. 4.2 Required special condition(s) Special condition: a. Please be advised that if additional impacts to waters of the U.S., either on this property or on/adjacent to this property and associated with this project/activity, are proposed at a later date, those impacts will be combined with the current impacts to waters of the U.S. and will be reviewed cumulatively. Generally, compensatory mitigation will be required if individual or cumulative (i.e., past and present) losses or degradation of waters of the U.S., are greater than 150 linear feet of perennial or intermittent stream channel and/or 0.1 acre of wetland. Additionally, cumulative impacts that result in the loss or degradation of greater than 300 linear feet of perennial or intermittent stream channel and/or 0.5 acre of wetland, will be processed under an Individual Permit. This verification of the use of the Nationwide Permit Program for this project does not imply that this office will necessarily approve any future proposal to impact waters of the U.S. on this property and/or associated with this project/activity. 5.0 Determination 5.1 Waiver request conclusion, if required or select N/A: N/A. 5.2 The activity, with the required mitigation, will result in no more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse effects on the aquatic environment and will not be contrary to the public interest, provided the permittee complies with the special conditions identified above. 5.3 This activity, as described, complies with all terms and conditions of the permits identified in Section 1.5.
