Atlas Environmental completed a stream and wetland delineation on February 9, 2019 and Atlas has submitted for an approved jurisdictional determination. The correspondence with the North Carolina Historic Preservation Office and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service Office are included. There are four streams and four wetlands on site. Catawba Creek (1606 linear feet), CH 100 (1338 linear feet), CH 200 (463 linear feet), and CH 300 (1137 linear feet) total 4544 linear feet. Catawba Creek, CH 100, and CH 300 are perennial. CH 200 is intermittent. WL 1000 (0.005 acre) and WL 3000 (0.005 acre) are hydrologically connected to CH 100 and CH 300. WL 2000 (0.042 acres) and WL 2100 (0.005) are isolated. Stream impacts are proposed to less than 5% of the streams on site. The road impacts are necessary to gain access through the property and for one lot. The development will require two permanent stream crossings for road access (subdivision road and driveway), and two permanent wetland impacts. Additional impacts are being avoided by site design and the construction of retaining walls. Permanent stream impacts are defined as impacts S1 and S2 which are located on intermittent stream identified as CH 200. Impact S1 is approximately 102 linear feet and 0.004 acre in area. Impact S2 is approximately 31 linear feet and 0.001 acre in area. No stream mitigation will be required. Two unavoidable wetland impacts are located at W1 which includes 0.042 acre of fill and W2 which includes 0.005 acre of fill to isolated wetlands. No wetland mitigation is required. Attached is an email stating that there was a previous NOV where the two isolated wetlands (WL 2000, WL 2100) are located, and that Atlas is requesting an Approved Jurisdictional Determination. The issued PJD references the PJD delineation map. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. Impacts to aquatic resource have been minimized to the greatest extent possible. There is approximately 4544 linear feet of stream channel and 0.057 acres of wetlands. The development of the property, including approximately 86 dwellings on 48.94 acres, is being accomplished with only one road crossing and one driveway crossing. Stream impacts are less than 5% and wetland impacts have been reduced to the isolated wetlands only. The channel banks are vertical with no vegetative protection and are actively eroding. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. Construction and engineering techniques are being applied to further minimize impacts from the development to aquatic resources. The stream crossings at SI are being shortened by headwalls at the upper and lower extents of the culverts. Additionally, a retaining wall is being constructed where needed to aviod additional impacts. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.

During the logging activities on site, sediment got into the area where the willows are planted and coir Togs are installed. Len worked with the owner (at that time) and Alan to resolve the violation and it is closed. I think we are two owners removed from the owner when the violation occurred. The company our clients purchased from had only owned the property for about a year. I sent Alan our delineation map and told him that we met with you on site earlier this week. We reviewed the map this morning and I showed him the area on our map where the previous violation occurred. I explained that we would be submitting a permit application (probably next week) for one road crossing and one driveway crossing within Phase 1. Phase 2 will occur on the other side of Stroupe Road and we do not have the plans for it yet so it will be permitted at a later date in time. I do believe that it will be a future Phase of Cramer Estates so we will make sure that impacts are cumulative to this initial phase. We would site like an AJD for this one.

Preliminary Determination ® There appear to be waters onthe above described project area/property, thatmay be subj ectto Section 404 ofthe Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 ofthe Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The waters have been delineated, and the delineation has beenverifiedby the Corps to be sufficiently accurate and reliable. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated 3/16/2022. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. Forpurposes of computation of impacts, compensatorymitigationrequirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a prelim inaryJD will treat all waters and wetlands thatwould be affected in anywayby the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictionalwaters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may request an approved JD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction. ❑ There appear to be waters onthe above described project area/property, that may be subjectto Section 404 ofthe Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 ofthe Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). However, since the waters have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination may not be used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is merely an effective presumption of C WA/RHA jurisdiction overall of the waters at the project area, which is not sufficiently accurate andreliable to support anenforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the waters on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps. B. Approved Determination ❑ There are Navigable Waters ofthe United States within the above describedproject area/property subjectto the permit requirements of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 ofthe Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in law orourpublished regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification. ❑ There are waterson the above described project area/property subjectto thepermit requirements of Section 404 ofthe Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon fora period not to exceed five years from the date ofthis notification. ❑ We recommend you have the waters on yourproject area/property delineated. As the Corps may notbe able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps. ❑ The waters on yourproject area/property have been delineated and the delineation has been verified by theCorps. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineationmap dated DATE. We strongly suggest you have this delineation surveyed Upon completion, this survey should be reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once verified, this survey SAW-2022-00421 will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA jurisdictionon your property which, provided there is no change in the law or ourpublished regulations, maybe relied upon for a period notto exceed five years. ❑The waters have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed by the Corps Regulatory Official identified below onDATE. Unless thereis a change in the law or ourpublished regulations, this determination may be relied upon fora period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification. ❑ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area/property which are subj ectto the permit requirements of Section404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or ourpublished regulations, this determination maybe relied upon fora periodnotto exceed five years from the date ofthis notification. ❑ The property is located in one ofthe 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA). You should contactthe Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at (252) 808-2808 to determinetheir requirements. Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or placement of structures, or work within navigable waters ofthe United States without a Department of the Army permit may constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or403).

The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate. 2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre- construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subjectpermit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.

United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE Asheville Field Office 160 Zillicoa Street Asheville, North Carolina 28801 March 24, 2022 Jacob Sinclair Atlas Environmental 338 South Sharon Amity Road, #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 Jsinclair(cr� atlasenvi. com Subject: Cramer Estates Residential Development; Gaston County, North Carolina Dear Jacob Sinclair: I.S. FISH & WILDLIFE SERVICE The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the information provided in your correspondence dated February 18, 2022, (received February 22, 2022, via email) wherein you solicit our comments regarding project -mediated impacts to federally protected species. We submit the following comments in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 661-667e); the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. §4321 et seq.); and section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act). Project Description According to the information provided, the Applicant proposes to construct a residential development and appurtenances on approximately 50 partially forested acres in Gastonia, North Carolina. The information provided suggests that the proposed project will require authorization from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to impact Waters of the United States. Preliminary design plans depict the proposed construction of 86 lots in two separate development phases. Federally Listed Endangered and Threatened Species According to Service records, suitable summer roosting habitat may be present in the action area (50CFR 402.02) for the federally threatened northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis). However, the final 4(d) rule, (effective as of February 16, 2016) exempts incidental take of northern long-eared bat associated with activities that occur greater than 0.25 miles from a known hibernation site, and greater than 150 feet from a known, occupied maternity roost during the pup season (June 1 — July 31). Based on the information provided, the project would occur at a location where any incidental take that may result from associated activities is exempt under the 4(d) rule for this species. The Applicant intends to avoid any associated tree clearing activities during this animal's maternity roosting season from May 15 — August 15. If adhered to, this impact minimization measure would support our concurrence with a "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" determination from the action agency. The information provided also indicates that suitable habitat is present within the action area for the federally endangered Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii). However, your correspondence suggests that targeted botanical surveys were conducted within the appropriate timeframe (September 3, 2021) and did not detect evidence for this species at that time. If all potential habitats for this species within the action area were evaluated at that time, we believe that the probability for inadvertent loss of this plant species is insignificant and discountable and we would concur with a "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" determination from the action agency. The information provided also indicates that suitable habitat is present onsite for the federally threatened dwarf -flowered heartleaf (Hexastylis naniflora). Botanical surveys detected evidence for members of the genus Hexastylis within the proposed action area, but the species was not or could not be diagnosed at that time. Provided that targeted botanical surveys are conducted during the appropriate survey window, and do not detect the presence of Hexastylis naniflora, we would concur with a "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" determination from the action agency. For the purposes of consultation under the Act, botanical survey results are valid for one or two years depending on the species: https://www.fws.gov/asheville/pdfs/Optimal%20Survey%20Windows%20for%201isted%20plant s%202020.pdf Based on the information provided, suitable habitat does not occur onsite for any other federally listed species. In accordance with the Act, it is the responsibility of the appropriate federal action agency or its designated representative to review its activities or programs and to identify any such activities or programs that may affect endangered or threatened species or their habitats. If it is determined that the proposed activity may adversely affect any species federally listed as endangered or threatened, formal consultation with this office must be initiated. Our concurrence with "no effect" determinations from action agencies is not required. We offer the following recommendations in the interest of protecting natural resources: Erosion and Sediment Control Measures to control sediment and erosion should be installed before any ground -disturbing activities occur. Grading and backfilling should be minimized, and existing native vegetation should be retained (if possible) to maintain riparian cover for fish and wildlife. Disturbed areas should be revegetated with native vegetation as soon as the project is completed. Ground disturbance should be limited to what will be stabilized quickly, preferably by the end of the workday. Natural fiber matting (coir) should be used for erosion control as synthetic netting can trap animals and persist in the environment beyond its intended purpose. Impervious Surfaces and Low -Impact Development Increased storm -water runoff also degrades aquatic and riparian habitat, causing stream -bank and stream -channel scouring. Impervious surfaces reduce groundwater recharge, resulting in even lower than expected stream flows during drought periods, which can induce potentially catastrophic effects for fish, mussels, and other aquatic life. Accordingly, we recommend that all new development, regardless of the percentage of impervious surface area they will create, implement storm -water -retention and -treatment measures designed to replicate and maintain the 2 hydrograph at the preconstruction condition to avoid any additional impacts to habitat quality within the watershed. We recommend the use of low -impact -development techniques, such as reduced road widths, grassed swales in place of curb and gutter, rain gardens, and wetland retention areas, for retaining and treating storm -water runoff rather than the more traditional measures, such as large retention ponds, etc. These designs often cost less to install and significantly reduce environmental impacts from residential development. Where detention ponds are used, storm -water outlets should drain through a vegetated area prior to reaching any natural stream or wetland area. Detention structures should be designed to allow for the slow discharge of storm water, attenuating the potential adverse effects of storm -water surges; thermal spikes; and sediment, nutrient, and chemical discharges. Also, because the purpose of storm -water -control measures is to protect streams and wetlands, no storm -water -control measures or best management practices should be installed within any stream (perennial or intermittent) or wetland. The Service appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments. Please contact Mr. Byron Hamstead of our staff at byron_hamstead@fws.gov if you have any questions.
