The 64-acre Study Area consists of a power line right-of-way that extends for approArnately 5 miles between the Table Rock Tie to Bridgewater Hydro Plant in Burke County, North
Carolina (Appendix A, Figures 1 and 2). Land use in the vicinity of the proposed Project consists of maintained rights -of -way, undeveloped forested lands, commercial, industrial, and
residential land. The Study Area consists of a maintained right-of-way and residential areas.The Study Area is situated in the Northern Inner Piedmont ecoregion, which is part of the
larger Level III Piedmont ecoregion of North Carolina. The Piedmont ecoregion is generally considered a transitional area between the mountainous ecoregions of the Appalachians to
the northwest and the relatively flat Coastal Plain to the southeast.The Northern Inner Piedmont is characterized by "higher elevations, more rugged topography, and more monadnocks
or mountain outliers than other areas of the Piedmont' (Griffith at al. 2002). The topography in the vicinity of the Study Area consists of moderate to steep rolling hills typical of the
region (Appendix A, Figure 3).

4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
Duke Energy will rebuild 5 miles of the eAsting James Transmission corridor (Line Index 4B1277) located between Morganton and Lake James, North Carolina.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*

The proposed project is within an existing 44 kV transmission line in Burke County, North Carolina, and is 100 feet wide. The line crosses through maintained right-of-way, which
includes herbaceous and scrub/shrub lands. The rebuild design calls for using a mixture of engineered poles and concrete poles in 50-foot to 60-foot sections and associated linework
from Bridgewater Hydro Station (STA 1181) to Table Rock Tie Station (STA 1580).
This work is scheduled to begin in March 2021 and last through August 2021. To conduct the work, we will remove any overgrown vegetation in the existing Duke Energy corridor and
prune and/or remove any adjacent trees from access roads that may interfere with the safe operation of the transmission line equipment.
There will be no change in impervious surface area from pre -to post -development conditions. Pre-existing contours will be restored, and disturbed areas will be stabilized sequentially as
construction proceeds along the transmission line corridor. Disturbed areas will be seeded and stabilized at the end of each workday. Rubber tire trucks will be required to access
various towers and observe erosion control measures for inspection. Any disturbance incurred by vehicle traffic will be stabilized within 48 hours or less.
Temporary construction accesses have been sited to make use of existing travel ways, minimize ground disturbance, and to avoid excessive cutting and filling. Access on grades
exceeding 20%, on poorly drained soils, or on potential problem areas may be surfaced with gravel or aggregate base course for same -day stabilization. Temporary access will be
bladed into the soil and seeded with permanent vegetation following completion of construction. Graveled temporary construction entrances will be provided at each location where
construction traffic will exit the site onto public roads, other off -site paved areas, or where indicated on plans. The graveled entrance will consist of 6 inches of 2-inch to 3-inch washed
ballast gravel and will be in accordance with the minimum dimensions as described on the plan. The surface of the graveled entrance will be periodically top -dressed as needed to
prevent off -site mud and sediment transport. Any tracking of sediment onto public or private pavement will be cleaned by contractor doing the tracking.
The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan has been designed to control pollution and protect water quality during all stages or phases of development. The project will not result in a
change to the physical, chemical, biological, or radiological integrity of downstream waters.
There are two (2) types of temporary construction access roads depicted in the Impact Figure:
• Temporary Gravel Access (depicted in red in Appendix B — Impact Figure): This is a temporary construction travel way. Construction of new temporary access typically consists of the
placement of approximately 5 inches of gravel (12 feet wide) on the land's surface. The placement of gravel is conducted without land disturbance or other earthwork, and is considered
immediate stabilization. Based on field conditions, geotextile fabric must be installed prior to placing the gravel. In uneven terrain, construction of the New Temporary Access may
require limited spot-blading of the soil to provide level access for pulling equipment or other specialized equipment. When spot-blading is required, bladed areas will be immediately top -
dressed with gravel in accordance with the Clearing and Erosion Control Specifications. Temporary BMPs (e.g., wattles, silt fence, waterbars) are depicted in — Impact Figure adjacent to
New Temporary Access and are included within the limits -of -disturbance (LOD) to account for any potential land disturbance resulting from construction equipment while installing the
gravel access. Following construction completion, the gravel and geotextile fabric will be removed, and the area will be seeded and stabilized, or in the case of a gravel -only road, the
gravel will be bladed into the soil, and the area will be seeded and stabilized. Preexisting contours and preexisting runoff conditions will be restored and the area will be stabilized
immediately upon removal of the roads.
• Temporary Access to be Matted (depicted in pink/magenta - Impact Figure): To avoid rutting in moist soil conditions, or in residential landscapes, composite matting will be used in lieu
of gravel access in accordance with the attached Clearing and Erosion Control Specifications. Composite matting will be installed according to the manufacturer's specifications and will
be removed following construction completion. BMPs may be depicted in Impact Figure adjacent to New Temporary Access to be Matted to protect a nearby wetland or stream, if
present; however, BMPs are not typically installed adjacent to New Temporary Access Roads to be Matted when matting is used to traverse a wetland due to the wetland disturbance
required to trench in silt fence, etc., and because the composite matting is considered a BMP itself. Preexisting contours and preexisting runoff conditions will be restored and the area
will be stabilized immediately upon removal of the access.
Stabilization will occur sequentially as construction proceeds along the transmission line corridor. Disturbed areas will be seeded and stabilized within 48 hours if not sooner. In general,
the project will be constructed in three (3) phases:
1) Installation of erosion controls, brush -hogging of the existing right -of way, improvement of existing access roads and same -day stabilization.
2) Construction of new tower/poles and linework.
3) Restoration of pre-existing contours and 48-hour stabilization.
There will be no change in impervious surface area from pre -to post -development conditions. Pre-existing contours will be restored and disturbed areas will be stabilized sequentially as
construction proceeds along the transmission line corridor. Disturbed areas will be seeded and stabilized at the end of each workday. The Project will not result in a change in
impervious surface, pre -construction contours, or peak runoff rates.
There will be no impact to downstream waters. The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan has been designed to control pollution and to protect water quality during all stages or phases of
development. There will be no change in impervious surface area from pre -to post -development conditions. Pre-existing contours will be restored and disturbed areas will be stabilized
sequentially as construction proceeds along the transmission line corridor. Disturbed areas will be seeded and stabilized at the end of each workday. The Project will not result in a
change in impervious surface, pre -construction contours, or peak runoff rates. The project will not result in a change in the physical, chemical, biological, or radiological integrity of
downstream waters.
Construction activities will be limited to within Duke Energy's existing maintained right-of-way. Duke Energy's right-of-way easement agreements include ingress and egress rights to and
from the right-of-way. The Project does not involve permanent stormwater features or new impervious surface. Installation and maintenance of temporary BMPs will be conducted in
accordance with the NC DEQ Erosion and Sediment Control Planning And Design Manual.
Construction equipment access has been sited to avoid new stream crossings and make use of existing culverts. Where a new stream crossing is required, construction equipment
access will utilize span bridges to cross the stream from upland to upland. Wetland equipment crossings will be conducted using composite matting. Temporary construction access,
span bridges and composite matting will be removed, preexisting contours reestablished, and the area will be stabilized immediately upon completion of construction. All clearing and
construction activities in and within 50 feet of streams and wetlands will consist of hand -clearing -only techniques. To access a portion of the line around structure P-21, a permanent
culvert is proposed to cross Stream 8, culvert dimensions are 20 feet long by 5 feet in diameter. No other permanent impacts are proposed.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Low Impact Design has been employed throughout the project, including avoidance of permanent impacts to wetlands, utilizing ebsting construction
access, stabilized right-of-way access routes, stabilizing disturbance at the end of each work day, and minimizing land disturbance. See Section 4h for
additional avoidance and minimization details.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques

Matting through Wetland 1 will be temporary and contours will be restored to pre -construction conditions. Construction equipment access has been
sited to avoid new stream crossings and make use of eAsting culverts. Where a stream crossing is required, construction equipment access will utilize
span bridges to cross the stream from upland to upland. Wetland equipment crossings will be conducted using composite matting. Temporary
construction access, span bridges, and composite matting will be reproved; preeAsting contours will be reestablished; and the area will be stabilized
immediately upon completion of construction. All clearing and construction activities in and within 50 feet of streams and wetlands will consist of hand -
clearing -only techniques. See Section 4h for additional avoidance and minimization details.
