la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
mpacts associated with the proposed development were limited through site selection, design, and location/orientation of the proposed lots and

proposed sewer alignment and associated temporary impacts are required due to the shallow depth of the utility installation and close probmity to
epsting infrastructure.

SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS:
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.
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).

RESULTS:
The site is covered with disturbed, young mixed pines and hardwoods and
includes a small section of landscaped walking trail, strip buffer, and
underground pipeline right-of-way. The site is surrounded by landscaped ponds,
grounds, and trails of adjacent residential and commercial development. Aerial
photography records show most of the site was timbered and graded late 2006 /
early 2007.
The young, mixed tree species include Short -leaf Pine (Pinus echinata), Virginia
Pine (P. virginianus), Willow Oak (Quercus phellos), Southern Red Oak (Q.
falcata), Post Oak (Q. stellata), Sweet Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Tulip
Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), Red Maple (Acer rubra), Red Cedar (Juniperus
virginiana), Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), and American Holly (Ilex opaca).
The shrub layer is dominated by and Blackberry (Rubus spp.), and Chinese
Privet (Ligustrum sinense). Vines include Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera
japonica), Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans),
and Catbrier (Smilax sp.). Herbs include Panic Grass (Panicum sp.), Japanese
Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum), and Knotweed (Po/ygonum sp.).
Transitional areas along the tree lines are heavily landscaped and edged with turf
grass and the sparse, naturally growing herbs observed were Sericea Lespedeza
(Lespedeza cuneata), Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus), and Ragwort
(Packera sp.).
Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results
The potential habitats for Schweinitz's Sunflower, Michaux's Sumac and
Smooth Coneflower along the tree line were examined. This habitat is
heavily landscaped and managed, with little to no native vegetation
present. No individuals of Schweinitz's Sunflower or Michaux's Sumac
were observed. *at the time of the survey there had not yet been a killing
frost and plants were easily identifiable.
• No habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there were no sightings
nor were any nesting sites observed.
• This site does not have suitable habitat to support populations of the
Carolina Heelsplitter.
Comparing this site location to the USFWS Asheville office's website
(http://www.fws.gov/asheville/htmis/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.

Evaluation
• 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.

has conducted field work and investigative studies covering thousands of
cumulative acres in both North and South Carolina since 1996, including:
• Cabarrus County NC Natural Heritage Inventory. Organized, directed,
and conducted field survey of natural areas in Cabarrus County for the
North Carolina Natural Heritage Program.
• Lincoln County NC Natural Heritage Inventory. Organized, directed, and
conducted field survey of natural areas in Lincoln County for the North
Carolina Natural Heritage Program.
• Threatened and Endangered Species Surveys and Natural Communities
Evaluation for over 55,000 acres in North and South Carolina, 1996 -
present.
• Located and identified numerous previously unreported populations of
Federally Endangered Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii).
• Located and identified numerous previously unreported populations of
Threatened Dwarf Heartleaf (Hexastylis nanif/ora).
• Found Schweinitz's Sunflower at Redlair Farm in Gaston County, NC.
This discovery led (in part) to the purchase of the site by the State of North
Carolina Plant Conservation Program, now called Redlair Preserve. This
population has become a Recovery Site for the species.
• Participated in numerous Piedmont Prairie restoration projects in
Mecklenburg, Union, Cabarrus and Gaston Counties, North Carolina
