Kinder Morgan Site Number NC-EXP-0002 Country Line Creek Tributary Dear Paul Wojoski: This application is submitted on behalf of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Kinder Morgan) to request authorization under the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NC DEQ) Individual 401 Water Quality Certification to implement pipeline protection at their Plantation Pipe Line right-of-way (ROW) crossing of a tributary to Country Line Creek in Caswell County, North Carolina (36.471869,-79.197029 WGS84) (see Attachment 3, Figure 1). Bank erosion and downcutting have caused an active 14-inch pipeline to become exposed and suspended. Kinder Morgan has evaluated options for permanently addressing pipeline protection issues at this site and selected what they consider the most viable option. The approach selected will protect the pipelines and minimize future erosion. Because the pipeline crosses a tributary of Country Line Creek, a jurisdictional water of the U.S., Kinder Morgan is seeking authorization under a North Carolina Department of Water Resources Individual 401 Water Quality Certification and a CWA Section 404 Nationwide Permit 12 with Pre -construction Notification (seeking authorization concurrently). The proposed repair would include restoring the pipeline coating along the length of the exposure; installing graded aggregate base below the pipeline; installing protective structures above the pipeline including a neoprene mat and articulating concrete mat; and restoring the stream bed and bank (see Attachment 2). Silt fencing and other appropriate best management practices would be utilized to protect the tributary to Country Line Creek. The bank stabilization and pipeline protection activities would result in up to 90 linear feet of permanent and temporary impacts to an unnamed tributary to Country Line Creek (see Design Drawings in Attachment 3). Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Paul Wojoski Page 2 of 2 .jacobs No direct impacts to protected species and their habitat are anticipated from the proposed activities (see Attachment 2). Impacts at the exposure repair site would include vegetation and soil disturbance within the previously disturbed ROW and approximately 10 to 30 feet outside the ROW. We appreciate your review of the enclosed information and processing of the permit application. If you have any questions regarding this request or require any additional information, please contact me at (404) 435-0830 or email at Betsy.Joraensenna jacobs.com, or Catie Donisi at (727) 348-0528.

The area outside the maintained ROW is forested and the property is used as hunting grounds seasonally. Section C; Part 4; Question 41h: Project purpose The project will re-establish pipeline protection within a tributary to Country Line Creek (designated as CW_S102) and minimize future risk to the pipeline. Section C; Part 4; Question 4i: Project Description The project will consist of pipeline protection activities at a location designated as NC-EXP- 0002, which is where Kinder Morgan's Products SE Pipe Line crosses a tributary to Country Line Creek in Caswell County, North Carolina (36.471869,-79.197029 WGS84). There is 1 pipeline, the 14-inch active pipeline (14" W14), within the 30-foot-wide Kinder Morgan ROW at the project location. The unnamed tributary to Country Line Creek (CW_S102) is a perennial stream that flows south to north and crosses the Kinder Morgan ROW perpendicularly. There are approximately 32 linear feet of stream within the ROW. CW S102 stream characteristics are described below under Jurisdictional Determinations (Section C; Part 5). There are no abutting wetlands. CW_S102 banks are incised with a 90 percent slope within the Kinder Morgan ROW. The stream has headcut up to a boulder or rock outcrop located about 5 feet outside the ROW. The boulder serves as a natural grade control structure. This downcutting has caused the 14" W 14 active pipeline to become exposed for 12 feet and suspended 2.7 feet above the stream bed. The exposed pipeline is at risk of impact damage and corrosion. Kinder Morgan has evaluated options for permanently addressing pipeline protection issues at this site and selected what they consider the most viable option. The approach selected will protect the pipeline and minimize future erosion by reestablishing the stream bed from upstream on the boulder to downstream past the pipeline and creating an energy dissipation area on the downstream end. Additional permanent ROW on the upstream side (15 feet) and downstream side (10 feet) has been requested from the landowners. Because the pipelines cross a tributary of Country Line Creek, a jurisdictional water of the U.S., Kinder Morgan is seeking authorization under the CWA Section 404 NWP 12 with Pre -construction Notification and a North Carolina Department of Water Resources Individual 401 Water Quality Certification (seeking authorization concurrently). An existing gravel access road and the Kinder Morgan ROW would be used for the access route and staging area. PPS1206211616ATL Caswell County, NC 7 NC-EXP-0002 ,taco S A summary of the proposed pipeline protection project is provided below but the design drawings in Attachment 3 should be referenced. The length of stream permanently impacted would be up to 60 linear feet and the length of stream temporarily impacted would be up to an additional 30 linear feet. • Site Preparation — The minimum area necessary would be cleared and graded outside the ROW to implement project, such as the areas where mats would be installed. • Implement erosion control measures — Erosion control measures would be installed to protect the stream area. • Excavate and evaluate identified pipe locations — Exposed pipelines would be fully inspected and evaluated to determine the condition of the pipeline. • Remove existing coating, repair pipeline anomalies, restore coating - As needed, the coating material across the entire length of the exposure would be removed by performing an abrasive blast. Any defects would be repaired, and the pipe would be recoated. • Install pipeline protection — A geotextile fabric would be wrapped around the extent of the exposed pipeline. To support the pipe, the base must be replaced with a more stable material. The pipeline area would be excavated approximately 4 feet below the existing invert of the pipe. Graded Aggregate Base (GAB) would be installed below the exposed pipeline and, if necessary, neoprene padding would be added to the crown of the pipe. Rip rap would be hand placed around the diameter of the pipe for additional protection. An articulating concrete block mat would be installed above the geotextile fabric/neoprene mat. The articulating block mat would be anchored into the ground approximately 4 feet below the invert of the pipeline. Restore stream bed and bank —To raise the upstream creek bed, the creek bottom would be filled from the upstream outcropping to north of the pipeline location with a mix of GAB or similar alternative, R4 Rip Rap, and fill depending on position relative to pipeline. Banks would be stabilized to protect backfill. Slopes on both sides of the water crossing would be graded and restored. R4 Rip Rap would be installed downstream of the articulating mat to protect the creek bottom and bank. A plunge pool would be created downstream of the articulating mat and rip rap installed to dissipate energy. All work would be done under dry conditions. To create a dry work site, a coffer or sandbag dam would be used to access the stream where the project would be implemented. The dam would be installed across CW_5102 upstream of the exposed pipeline; water above the dam would be pumped or flumed around the dam to the stream below the work area. The stream would be allowed to dewater naturally, if possible. Best Management Practices Best management practices (BMPs) implemented would include, but not be limited to, the following: BMPs include silt fencing around the workspace and around stockpile area to prevent runoff into CW 5102. PPS1206211616ATL Caswell County, NC NC-EXP-0002 .;acobs • Equipment operated within the CW_S102 stream channel will be operated from mats. Implementation of the dam -and -pump crossing method will meet the following performance criteria: use sufficient pumps, including on -site backup pumps, to maintain downstream flows; construct dams with materials that prevent sediment and other pollutants from entering the waterbody (e.g., sandbags or clean gravel with plastic liner); iii. screen pump intakes to minimize entrainment of fish; iv. prevent streambed scour at pump discharge; and V. continuously monitor the dam and pumps to ensure proper operation throughout the duration of the waterbody crossing. • The flume crossing method will include implementation of the following steps: install flume pipe after blasting (if necessary), but before any trenching; use sand bag or sand bag and plastic sheeting diversion structure or equivalent to develop an effective seal iii. divert stream flow through the flume pipe (some modifications to the stream bottom may be required to achieve an effective seal); iv. properly align flume pipe(s) to prevent bank erosion and streambed scour; V. do not remove flume pipe during trenching, inspection/maintenance, or backfilling activities, or initial streambed restoration efforts; and vi. remove all flume pipes and dams as soon as final cleanup of the stream bed and bank is complete. If dewatering of work area is necessary then a flotation device will be installed on the intake valve, and removed water discharged to uplands through a filtering device to minimize the potential for sediments and turbidity reaching the downstream portions of CW_S102. Any pumps used for the dam and pump or trench dewatering will be in secondary containment. The volume capacity of the secondary containment system will be at least 2 times the fuel and oil capacity of the pump. Section C; Part 5 — Jurisdictional Determinations A wetland delineation of the project area, which includes the proposed project area and access route, was conducted on March 29, 2022. Delineated features in the vicinity of the work areas and access route are shown on Figure 2 and Figure 3 in Attachment 3 and are described below. See Attachment 6 for NC DWQ Stream Identification Form. No wetlands were delineated in the area of the proposed project. PPS1206211616ATL Caswell County, NC 7 NC-EXP-0002 ,taco S CW_S102, a perennial stream, is an unnamed tributary to Country Line Creek where the pipe is exposed and requires maintenance. The TOB width is 20 feet, TOB height is 10 feet, OHWM width is 15 feet, wetted width is 15 feet, and maximum pool depth is 24 inches.

Permanent stream impacts are limited to the necessary amount to reestablish the streambed over the petroleum pipeline using the existing instream features. Section E; Part 1; Question 1 b — Measures to avoid/minimize impacts through construction techniques The proposed pipeline protection would stabilize the stream bed and banks (which are currently actively eroding up to the boulder than has been acting as a grade control structure) and limit sediment transfer downstream once installed. Section G; Part 5; Question 5a — Threatened and endangered species and critical habitat One federally endangered species, Roanoke logperch (Percina rex); one federally threatened species, Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni); and one federal candidate species, monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus), were identified in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Information for PPS1206211616ATL Caswell County, NC NC-EXP-0002 .;acobs Planning and Consultation (IPaC) report for the project area and access route (see Attachment 5). There is no suitable habitat to support these species within the project area or along the access route (see Threatened and Endangered Species Evaluation Table below) and there is no designated critical habitat within the project area/access route. Therefore, no impacts to threatened and endangered species from implementation of the proposed project are anticipated.

Section G; Part 5; Question 5f — Will you cut any trees in order to conduct the work in waters of the U.S.? To install the articulating mats, work would extend outside of the maintained ROW (15-30 feet upstream and 10-20 feet downstream). Some tree clearing would be required outside of the PPS1206211616ATL Caswell County, NC 7 NC-EXP-0002 ,taco S. existing ROW; however, none of these trees are within waters of the U.S. The minimum area necessary would be cleared outside the ROW to implement the project. Section G; Part 5; Question 5i — Percussive Activity The proposed articulating concrete block mats are proposed to be keyed in upstream of the instream bedrock/boulder. Upstream of this area, the substrate appeared to also be bedrock. Percussive activities to create a small trench to key into the existing rock would be required. Use of jackhammers would be limited to the amount necessary to secure the mat to the rock. Section G; Part 7 — Cultural Resources The bulk of the project area was highly disturbed for installation of Kinder Morgan's pipeline. As a result, there is a low likelihood of impacting intact or contextually significant cultural resources within the project area. If cultural resources are discovered during construction, work in the immediate area will stop and a qualified archaeologist will be consulted. In the event human remains or funerary objects are discovered, work will immediately stop and the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources will be contacted. No historic properties are located within the proposed project area (see North Carolina Historic Preservation Office HPOWEB Search Figure in Attachment 3).

The species list fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). If your project area contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species on this species list, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. If suitable habitat is present, surveys should be conducted to determine the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of this species list and/or North Carolina Natural Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys. New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical habitat. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the Act, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90 days. This verification can be completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed list. The purpose of the Act is to provide a means whereby threatened and endangered species and the ecosystems upon which they depend may be conserved. Under sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) of the Act and its implementing regulations (50 CFR 402 et seq.), Federal agencies are required to utilize their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered 08/15/2022 species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat. A Biological Assessment is required for construction projects (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) that are major Federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment as defined in the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2) (c)). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a biological evaluation similar to a Biological Assessment be prepared to determine whether the project may affect listed or proposed species and/or designated or proposed critical habitat. Recommended contents of a Biological Assessment are described at 50 CFR 402.12. If a Federal agency determines, based on the Biological Assessment or biological evaluation, that listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the proposed project, the agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402. In addition, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species and proposed critical habitat be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or license applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at: http://www.fws.gov/endangered/esa-library/pdf/TOC-GLOS.PDF Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), there are additional responsibilities under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) to protect native birds from project -related impacts. Any activity, intentional or unintentional, resulting in take of migratory birds, including eagles, is prohibited unless otherwise permitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12 and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). For more information regarding these Acts see https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations.php. The MBTA has no provision for allowing take of migratory birds that may be unintentionally killed or injured by otherwise lawful activities. It is the responsibility of the project proponent to comply with these Acts by identifying potential impacts to migratory birds and eagles within applicable NEPA documents (when there is a federal nexus) or a Bird/Eagle Conservation Plan (when there is no federal nexus). Proponents should implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize the production of project -related stressors or minimize the exposure of birds and their resources to the project -related stressors. For more information on avian stressors and recommended conservation measures see https://www.fws.gov/birds/bird-enthusiasts/threats-to- birds.php. In addition to MBTA and BGEPA, Executive Order 13186: Responsibilities of Federal Agencies to Protect Migratory Birds, obligates all Federal agencies that engage in or authorize activities that might affect migratory birds, to minimize those effects and encourage conservation measures that will improve bird populations. Executive Order 13186 provides for the protection of both migratory birds and migratory bird habitat. For information regarding the implementation of Executive Order 13186, please visit https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/ executive-orders/e0-13186. php. 08/15/2022 3 We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Code in the header of this letter with any request for consultation or correspondence about your project that you submit to our office.

Probability Of Presence Summary The graphs below provide our best understanding of when birds of concern are most likely to be present in your project area. This information can be used to tailor and schedule your project activities to avoid or minimize impacts to birds. Please make sure you read and understand the FAQ "Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report" before using or attempting to interpret this report. Probability of Presence (■) Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4-week months.) A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort (see below) can be used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score. One can have higher confidence in the presence score if the corresponding survey effort is also high. How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps: The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee 08/15/2022 was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25. 2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is 0.05/0.25 = 0.2. 3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score. Breeding Season( ) Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time -frame inside which the bird breeds across its entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area. Survey Effort (1) Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps. The number of surveys is expressed as a range, for example, 33 to 64 surveys. No Data (—) A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week. Survey Timeframe Surveys from only the last 10 years are used in order to ensure delivery of currently relevant information. The exception to this is areas off the Atlantic coast, where bird returns are based on all years of available data, since data in these areas is currently much more sparse. — probability of presence breeding season I survey effort — no data SPECIES JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC Bald Eagle �+J Jkli +11+ Jill Jill ��A-j Jill Non -BCC Jill Jill 1111 Jill Jill �00 No Vulnerable III Jill Ji Chimney Swift BCC Rangewide +++— +--- — " s''— +�„+" "" —F—--+— (CON) Eastern Whip -poor- "'' —+" "'—'"""1 11-1 V— Whip -poor - Will BCC Rangewide ��-- ---- ---- --' (CON) 08/15/2022 4 Kentucky Warbler +++- +--- —+- 4-4-+ ' - +++' "" 111+ —+—+ —��— —+++ --+— BCC Rangewide (CON) — ---- --- Prairie Warbler BCC Rangewide ""' �� 11'M UP + „ +++— +--- —+-- + + —+—+ —+++ --+— (CON) Prothonotary 7�;-74-i!

Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species present on your project site. What does IPaC use to generate the list of migratory birds that potentially occur in my specified location? The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCQ and other species that may warrant special attention in your project location. 08/15/2022 5 The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project intersects, and that have been identified as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to offshore activities or development. Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your project area, please visit the Rapid Avian Information Locator (RAIL,) Tool. What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location? The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets. Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link. How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering or migrating in my area? To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or year-round), you may query your location using the RAIL Tool and look at the range maps provided for birds in your area at the bottom of the profiles provided for each bird in your results. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area. What are the levels of concern for migratory birds? Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern: 1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands); 2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and 3. "Non -BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non -eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from certain types of development or activities (e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing). 08/15/2022 6 Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics. Details about birds that are potentially affected by offshore projects For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of bird species within your project area off the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal also offers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review. Alternately, you may download the bird model results files underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf project webpage. Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year, including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam Lorin. What if I have eagles on my list? If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the Eagle Act should such impacts occur. Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10 km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a red horizontal bar). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort bar or no data bar means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there, and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to confirm presence, and helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be confirmed. To learn more about conservation measures, visit the FAQ "Tell me about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds" at the bottom of your migratory bird trust resources page. 08/15/2022 IPaC User Contact Information Agency: Jacobs Name: Ursula Rogers Address: 18 Tremont St Address Line 2: Suite 700 City: Boston State: MA Zip: 02108 Email ursula.rogers@jacobs.com Phone: 9492263738 Caswell County, NC % Kinder Morgan NC-EXP-0002 Country Line Creek Tributary pace s Attachment 6 - NC DWQ Stream Identification Form PPS1206211716ATL NC DWQ Stream Identification Form Version 4.11 Date: Q3/29/2Q22 Project/Site: Kinder Morgan Water Crossing Latitude: 36.471821 Evaluator: CD County: Longitude: _79.197128 Total Points: 32 Stream Determination (circle one) Other Stream is at least intermittent if >_ 19 or perennial if >_ 30` Ephemeral Intermittent perennial I e.g. Quad Name: A.

Please retain this email for your records and submit this documentation as part of your 401 application (PCN Application) as required by federal law. DWR will not be able to accept your application without this federally required documentation. 401 applications received without documentation that a pre -filing meeting request was submitted at least 30 days prior will be returned as incomplete. Responses to this email are not monitored. Background On April 6, 2022, the United States Supreme Court issued an order staying a lower court's vacatur of the Trump Administration's 2020 "Clean Water Act Section 401 Certification Rule" ("Federal Rule"). As a result of the United States Supreme Court order, the Trump Administration's Federal Rule has sprung back into effect. The Trump Administration's Federal Rule imposes additional procedural requirements on applicants for 401 Certifications and on DWR's processing of those applications. One requirement is that 401 applicants must request a pre -filing meeting request at least 30 days prior to submitting their 401 application. [40 C.F.R. §121.4] In turn, the Federal Rule requires that applicants include documentation of their pre -filing meeting request in their 401 Certification application. [40 C.F.R §121.1; 40 C.F.R. §121.5]. Please refer to the Federal Rule for more information. Per 40 CFR §121 and §121.5, a 401 Certification application that does not include the required pre -filing meeting request documentation does not constitute a "certification request." As a result of the reinstatement of the Trump Administration's Federal Rule, all 401 applications received after April 6, 2022 that do not have documentation that a pre -filing meeting request was submitted at least 30 days prior to submittal of a 401 Certification application will be returned as incomplete.

Fioure2 SiteAccess NC-EXP-0002 Country Line Creek Tributarv.odf Good afternoon, We are requesting on the behalf of Kinder Morgan a Pre -Filling Meeting for Kinder Morgan's NC- EXP-0002 Country Line Creek Tributary project. The project will consist of pipeline protection activities at a location designated as NC-EXP-0002, which is where Kinder Morgan's Products SE Pipe Line crosses an unnamed tributary (designated as CW_5102) to Country Line Creek in Caswell County, North Carolina (36.471856,-79.197103 WGS84). Downcutting and erosion has exposed one pipeline. There are no wetlands within the project area or access routes. Preliminary designs are anticipating maximum 30 linear feet of stream impacts and 45 cubic yards of excavation to CW_5102. There are no environmental concerns along the access route. There is no T&E habitat in the access or workspace. No direct impacts to protected species and their habitat are anticipated from the proposed. For your reference a topographic and an aerial figure for the project location have been attached. If you have any questions regarding this request or require any additional information, please contact me by email at Catie.donisiCor iacobs.com or (727) 348-0528 or Betsy Jorgensen at (404) 435-0830 or email Betsy.JorgensenPiacobs.com.
