Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:* The Salisbury Site is approximately 129 acres in extent and is located northwest of the Harrison Road and Jake Alexander Blvd. West intersection in Salisbury, North Carolina (Figure 1). The study area consists of undeveloped forested areas, open herbaceous areas, a powerline and a sewer line Right -of -Way. The surrounding land use consist of single-family residential areas, undeveloped forested areas, and commercial properties. On -site elevations range from 680-760 feet above mean sea level (Figure 2). Land cover within the project area consists of mixed forest, woody wetlands, emergent wetlands, open herbaceous areas, a powerline and a sewer line Right -of -Way (Figure 3). According to the United States Department of Agriculture - Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) Web Soil Survey of Union County (Figure 4) and the NRCS Published Soil Survey for Rowan County (Figure 5), on - site soils consist of eight soil types. Of the on -site soils listed, Chewacla loam is listed as containing hydric inclusions on the Web Soil Survey. A review of the NWI GIS layer depicts two riverine systems in the northeastern and northwestern portions of the project limits, a potential wetland in the central portion of the project limits, and a potential freshwater pond in the western portion of the project limits (Figure 6). FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer was reviewed for the project area (FEMA Panels 3710571000J, 3710575000J, and 3710574000J. The central portion of the property from the northwest portion to the southeast corner of the project limits is located within the 1% Annual Chance Flood Hazard, 0.2% Annual Chance Flood Hazard, and Regulatory Floodway (Figure 7). On November 15 and 16, 2021, CWS scientists Megan Bollero WPIT, and Amie Hoy, WPIT, delineated on -site jurisdictional waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Based on the results of this field investigation, there are 18 jurisdictional waters of the U.S. located within the project boundary that consist of six wetlands (Wetlands AA-GG), 11 streams (Streams A-K), and a freshwater pond (Pond A), totaling approximately 17.06 acres, including 5,886 linear feet of jurisdictional stream channel (Figure 8). 4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past? * Yes No Unknown 4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property: 15.24 acres 4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property: 1,027 If intermittent, 4,859 If perennial 4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: * The purpose of this project is to develop the property into a residential development. This project will provide housing for Salisbury, North Carolina to meet the growing demand for housing due to population growth. 4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: * Under NWP29, the proposed impacts total 0.01 acre of wetland impacts (W1). The proposed impacts are due to fill for lots. As the proposed wetland impact is minor and over 15 acres of wetlands and 5,886 If of stream channel were avoided, Fiorenza Properties respectfully requests authorization for this wetland fill. The proposed site plan is included as Attachment C. Typical construction equipment such as a track hoe will be used. Typical heavy equipment will be used in grading operations (bulldozers, excavators, dump trucks, graders, etc.). After grading fork lifts will be used for loading materials and access. 5. Jurisdictional Determinations 5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?* Yes Comments: Request for a PJD was submitted to USACE on November 29, 2021 No Unknown 5b.

Westinghouse Blvd. Charlotte, NC 28273 704-527-1177 (office) 704-527-1133 (fax) December 10, 2021 Bridget McClellan Fiorenza Properties 301 Fieldbrook Place Charlotte, NC 28209 Subject: Protected Species Habitat Assessment Report Salisbury Site Salisbury, North Carolina CWS Project No. 2021-0143 Dear Ms. McClellan, Fiorenza Properties has contracted Carolina Wetland Services, Inc. (CWS) to provide a protected species habitat assessment for the Salisbury Site. The Salisbury site is approximately 129 acres in extent and is located northwest of the Harrison Road and Jake Alexander Blvd. West intersection in Salisbury, North Carolina (Figure 1, attached). Methods In -office Desktop Review To determine which protected species are listed as occurring or potentially occurring within the project vicinity and prior to conducting the on -site field investigation, CWS consulted the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Endangered and Threatened Species and Species of Concern by County for North Carolina online database for Rowan County' and Information for Planning and Consultation (IPAC) database2. In addition, CWS performed a data review using the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) Data Explorer on December 9, 2021 to determine if any record occurrences of federally -listed, candidate endangered, threatened species, or critical habitat are located within the project limits. Typical habitat requirements for listed species was discerned from multiple USFWS' and NCNHP' online resources including, but not limited to, specific USFWS species profiles, recovery plans, NCNHP's Guide to Federally Listed Endangered and Threatened Species of North Carolina, and List of the Rare Plant Species of North Carolina.

Field Survey CWS scientists, Megan Bollero, WPIT' and Arnie Hoy, WPIT conducted a pedestrian habitat assessment of the project area on November 15 and 16, 2021. Potential habitats for potentially occurring federally -protected species that were identified during the desktop review were assessed in the field for the quality of physical and/or biological features essential to the conservation of the applicable species. Additionally, during the pedestrian habitat assessment, areas were reviewed for applicable federally protected species. Identification references for natural communities include the National Land Cover Database (2011)'. Results Based on the NCNHP data explorer review, there are no current records of federally -protected species within the project limits or within a mile of the project limits (Attachment A). The USFWS lists one federally protected species for Rowan County (Table 1). Additionally, bald eagle is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act'. An official species list has not been obtained from the USFWS Asheville Field Office. Table 1. Unofficial List of Federally -Protected Species Potentially Occurring within the Salisbury Site, Rowan County, NC. Major Group Scientific Name Common Name Federal Status* Record Status Helianthus Schweinitz's Plant E Current schweinitzii sunflower Haliaeetus Animal Bald eagle BGPA Current leucocephalus E - Endangered, T - Threatened, BGPA - Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act Six terrestrial community types were identified within the project area during the field survey. These community types consist of undeveloped forest, woody wetlands, emergent wetlands, herbaceous areas, and utility right-of-ways (Figure 3). Of the identified on -site community types, the forested areas and herbaceous areas are considered potential habitat for federally threatened or endangered species that could potentially occur within the project limits.

They can reach heights of five feet. Populations are limited to the piedmont of North and South Carolina. It has been listed as an Endangered species under the ESA since 1991.10 The typical habitat for this plant includes roadsides, old pastures, transmission line right-of-ways, open areas, either natural or human -maintained habitats, or edges of upland woods. Major characteristics of soils associated with suitable Schweinitz's sunflower habitat include thin soils, soils on upland interstream flats or gentle slopes, soils that are clay like in both composition and texture (and often with substantial rock fragments), soils that have a high shrinkage swell capacity, and those which vary over the course of the year from very wet to very dry. Biological Analysis: A NCNHP data record review revealed that there are no current occurrences for this species within the project limits or within a one -mile radius of the project. A desktop review of the site was conducted on December 9, 2021, and determined that the Cecil and Pacolet soil series that has known Schweinitz's sunflower populations cover the majority of the project limits. There are herbaceous areas that are infrequently maintained within the study area, these areas are potential habitats for Schweinitz's sunflower populations (Figure 3; Photographs 1-3). The roadside areas were intensively maintained but are considered marginal habitat (Photograph 4). The forested areas within the project limits do not provide adequate sunlight to support Schweinitz's sunflower (Photographs 5 and 6). Due to the presence of potential habitat, CWS recommends a survey for this species during the optimal survey window (late August -October; Attachment C). Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act,11 enacted in 1940, prohibits anyone without a permit issued, from "taking" bald eagles, including their parts, nests, or eggs. Habitat for the bald eagle includes cliffs and forested areas typically within 1.0 mile of estuaries, large lakes, reservoirs, rivers, seacoast, and as they become more abundant, stands of undisturbed forest. A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area, as well as, the area within a 1 mile radius of the project limits, was performed on December 9, 2021, using 2021 color aerials. There are no bodies of water large enough or sufficiently open to be considered a potential feeding source. According to the NCNHP database, there are no current occurrences of this species within 1.0 mile of the project study area. Additionally, no bald eagles or bald eagle nests were observed within the study area at the time of the site visit. Due to the lack of optimal habitat within the project limits and lack of observations, CWS concludes that this project will have no effect on this species. 10 United States Fish and Wildlife Services. 1991.

CWS has concluded that activities within the project area will not directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of the bald eagle. Potential habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower was observed within the project limits. CWS recommends a survey for this species during the optimal survey windows (Attachment C).

Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here: httos://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Land and Water Fund easement, or Federally - listed species are documented near the project area.
