Creek site in Kannapolis, Cabarrus County, North Carolina
Ms. Stygar, Messrs. Perez, Wojoski, and Hamstead,
Enclosed is a request for Nationwide Permit #29 for the Nexus Mill Creek site on 17.19 acres
located at the corner of Kannapolis Parkway and Davidson Highway in Kannapolis, NC. The site
is a proposed residential development and consists of three wetlands. The site was verified by the
USACE in March 2021 and by NCDEQ in April 2021. Please refer to the Jurisdictional
Determination Information section for information on onsite surface waters.
As shown on the attached exhibits, the proposed project will include permanent impacts to two
wetlands for a road crossing and associated retaining wall required to stabilize the corridor
required for emergency vehicle access. Temporary impacts are limited to construction access to
install the proposed impacts. Total permanent impacts proposed include 0.049 acres of wetland

impacts (Wetlands A and B). This access crossing was necessary due to City connectivity
requirements, including fire access, and to accommodate site stormwater requirements.
Impacts associated with the proposed development were limited through site selection, design,
and location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes. Efforts of minimization were
implemented during the design to preserve existing site hydrology and limit adverse effects to
existing, onsite natural habitat. Retaining walls will be used to minimize impacts. The applicant
has demonstrated avoidance and minimization efforts by dedicating avoiding 93% of onsite
wetlands. Due to limited site impacts, no 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. This report has been submitted to Fish & Wildlife Services for concurrence. Please refer to
the Threatened and Endangered Species Evaluation Section for additional details on the
terrestrial species evaluation. Thank you for your consideration and please contact me if you
have any questions, [phone] or email at [e-mail].

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Impacts associated with the proposed development were limited through site selection, design, and location/orientation of the proposed lots and
access routes. Impacts were limited to the extent possible while still maintaining the required connectivity to existing right-of-ways and accommodate
emergency vehicle access. Retaining walls will be used to minimize impacts. The applicant has demonstrated avoidance and minimization efforts by
avoiding 93% of onsite wetlands.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Install temporary perimeter silt fence and temporary stone outlets in low areas along the silt fence. Install temporary diversions to drain to temporary
skimmer sediment basins uphill of the the proposed retaining walls during retaining wall construction. Install concrete endwalls at the culvert crossing
in conjunction with the retaining. Install storm drainage with inlet protection in conjunction with the retaining wall construction that drains to the two
permanent stormwater control measures (SCM's). Erosion control measures shall remain in place throughout construction until the site is stabilized.

Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
There appear to be waters on the above described project area/property, thatmay 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). The waters have been
delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate and reliable. The approximate boundaries
of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated 2/23/2021. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination
may be used in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of
impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a
preliminary JD will treat allwaters and wetlands thatwould be affected in any way by 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 m ay request an approved JD, which is an appealable
action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
❑ There appear to be waters on the above described project area/property, thatmay be subjectto Section 404 of the 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 CWA/RHA
jurisdiction over allof the waters at the project area, which is not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable
permit decision. We recommendthatyouhave 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 consultantto conduct a delineation that can
be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
❑ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above de scribed project 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 or our published 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 de scribed project area/property subjectto the permit 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 m ay be

Nexus Mill Creek - Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation
SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS:
One plant species with federal protection was listed as potentially occurring on
the Nexus Mill Creek site:
• 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).
Two animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring on
the Nexus Mill Creek site.
• Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus Ieucocephalus), 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.
• 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.
RESULTS:
The site features mid successional abandoned residential property, farmland,
and wooded slopes and drainage flowing to Afton Run Creek. The site is
disturbed with old dirt roads and trails. There are overhead power lines
paralleling the roadsides along Hwy 73 and Kannapolis Parkway.
The disturbed mixed hardwoods on site are dominated by White Oak (Quercus
alba), Post Oak (Q. stellata), Red Oak (Q. rubra), Southern Red Oak (Q. falcata),
Willow Oak (Q. phellos), Pignut Hickory (Carya glabra), Shagbark Hickory (C.
ovata), Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron
tulipifera), Cottonwood (Populus deltoides), Hackberry (Celtis laevigata),

Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results
• All potential habitats for Schweinitz's Sunflower along the roadsides,
power line rights -of -way, transitional areas and woods edges were
examined, and the species was not observed. WEPG concludes
Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) does not occur on the
site.
• No suitable habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there were no
sightings nor were any nesting sites observed. WEPG concludes Bald
Eagle (Haliaeetus /eucocepha/us) does not occur on the site.
• Comparing this site location to the USFWS Asheville office's website
(http://www.fws.gov/asheville/htm Is/project_review/N LE B_in_WNC. htm I)
WEPG concludes 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.

Subject: Findings - Limited Cultural Resources Literature Review
Nexus Mill Creek Development Tract
Kannapolis, Cabarrus County, North Carolina
R.S. Webb & Associates No. 22-649-188
Dear Mr. Caldwell:
BACKGROUND
During August 2022, R.S. Webb & Associates (RSWA) conducted a limited cultural resources
literature review for the proposed Nexus Mill Creek development tract in Kannapolis, Cabarrus
County, North Carolina. The project area covers approximately 13.9 acres and is located northwest
of the intersection of State Route (SR) 73 (Davidson Highway) and Kannapolis Parkway in
northwestern Cabarrus County (Figure 1).
For this study, a cultural resource is defined as a discrete area of human activity that is at least 50
years old. Cultural resources include, but are not limited to, archeological sites, historic structures,
military earthworks, mines/mining features, historic cemeteries, and historic landscape features. The
purpose of the current study was to determine if certain previously recorded cultural resources are
located within the project area.
METHODOLOGY
Through the State Historic Preservation Office's (SHPO) HPOWEB database, information was
reviewed regarding National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) properties, Cabarrus County
surveyed -only historic resources, local landmarks, state study -list sites and historic resources
determined by the SHPO to be eligible for the NRHP. During this limited literature review, the
North Carolina Office of State Archaeology (OSA) was not consulted. Historic county maps were
examined online through North Carolina Maps, a collaboration of the University of North Carolina,
the State Archives of North Carolina, and the Outer Banks History Center. Historic aerial
photography and additional historic maps were accessed through Historicaerials.com,
Earthexplorer.usgs.gov, Legacy.lib.utexas.edu/maps/ and/or Alabamamaps.ua.edu.
The following primary sources were found to be useful in searching for historic resources within and
adjacent to the project area:
1891 Official Military Atlas of the Civil War (Davis et al. reprinted, 1983)
1910 USDA Cabarrus County Sheet Soil Map
Circa 1921 Rural Delivery Map of Cabarrus County

RESULTS
National Register of Historic Places: There are no NRHP-listed historic properties located within
1.0 km of the current study tract.
Cabarrus County Historic Resources: The HPOWEB database identifies no state Study List sites,
local landmarks, properties determined eligible for the NRHP, or surveyed -only historic resources
within 1.0 km of the study tract.
Revolutionary War Actions/Features: There were no recorded Revolutionary War military
engagements in Cabarrus County. The closest such known events took place in northwest and
central Mecklenburg County, more than 20 km west and southwest of the project area (Lewis 2021).
Civil War Actions/Features: Review of the Civil War military atlas (Davis et al. 1983) revealed that
no Civil War infantry engagements occurred in or near Cabarrus County. Maps indicate that Union
cavalry were active north, west, and southwest of the Cabarrus County area. While it is possible that
scouting or raiding could have taken place nearby, there is no indication of Civil War military
activity in or near the study tract (Davis et al. 1983).
Historic Cemeteries: The USGS topographic maps reviewed show no mapped cemeteries within at
least 1.0 km of the project area. There was, however, a cemetery located on a tract of land south of
Davidson Highway and the project area, but this cemetery was relocated in 2007.
Structures and Features on Historic Maps and Aerial Photographs: Maps from the first quarter of
the 20th century shows a primary road passing along the northeastern study tract boundary, a remnant
of which is current -day Old Macedonia Court (Figure 1). The maps also show a secondary road
passing southward through or near the project area and buildings located north and southwest of the
study tract boundaries. The 1930 county highway map depicts the current route of SR 73 in place,
while a building appears in the study tract on the 1938 highway map. A dwelling and an outbuilding
are present in the study tract on the 1949 USGS topographic map. Maps from 1967 and 1969 show
Odell Church adjacent to the southwestern study tract boundary, two buildings in the southwestern
part of the project area, and one building in the northern portion of the study tract (Figure 1).
Aerial photographs dating to 1956 show all except the central part of the study tract in cultivation.
These photographs show: multiple buildings (i.e., a farmstead) in the northeastern part of the project
area; two independent buildings in the southwestern portion of the study tract; and a single building
in the northwest part of the project area (Figure 1). Aerial photographs from 1965 and 1983 show
transition of project area land from cultivation to pasture. The aerials also show: loss of several
buildings at the project area farmstead; a loop road and buildings located southwest of the project
area (1965) where a church was present by 1983; and the loss of one building and the addition of
another building in the northwestern section of the study tract after 1965. The course of Roger Dale

Carter Boulevard cut off the connection of the historic road corridor north of the project area from
SR 73; construction of Kannapolis Parkway and Macedonia Church Road by 2006 isolated the
section of historic road known as Old Macedonia Court.
CONCLUSIONS
There are no NRHP-listed properties or otherwise recorded historic resources located within 1.0 km
of the study tract. Likewise, no mapped cemeteries are located within or adjacent to the study tract.
OSA was not consulted during this literature review, so the presence/absence of archeological sites
within the project area is unknown. Historic maps and aerial photographs indicate an early 20th
century roadway passing along the northern project area boundary that fell out of use in the 21st
century. There was also a farmstead complex and agricultural use of the study tract throughout the
20th century.
