1) 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 subject
permit 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:

be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property.
PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all
waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of
the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is
"preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do
not expire.
❑ I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein.
An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that
jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United
States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of
waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or
Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit
decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be
posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected
party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years
(subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05-
02) .
❑ I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information
to inform my decision.
G. ALL REQUESTS

zA legible delineation map depicting the aquatic resources and the property/review area.
Delineation maps must be no larger than 11x17 and should contain the following: (Corps
signature of submitted survey plats will occur after the submitted delineation map has been
reviewed and approved) .6
■ North Arrow
■ Graphical Scale
■ Boundary of Review Area
■ Date
■ Location of data points for each Wetland Determination Data Form or tributary
assessment reach.
For Approved Jurisdictional Determinations:
■ Jurisdictional wetland features should be labeled as Wetland Waters of the US, 404
wetlands, etc. Please include the acreage of these features.
■ Jurisdictional non -wetland features (i.e. tidal/navigable waters, tributaries,
impoundments) should be labeled as Non -Wetland Waters of the US, stream, tributary,
open water, relatively permanent water, pond, etc. Please include the acreage or linear
length of each of these features as appropriate.
■ Isolated waters, waters that lack a significant nexus to navigable waters, or non -
jurisdictional upland features should be identified as Non -Jurisdictional. Please
include a justification in the label regarding why the feature is non jurisdictional (i.e.
"Isolated", "No Significant Nexus", or "Upland Feature"). Please include the acreage
or linear length of these features as appropriate.
For Preliminary _lurisdictional Determinations:
Wetland and non -wetland features should not be identified as Jurisdictional, 404,
Waters of the United States, or anything that implies jurisdiction. These features can be
identified as Potential Waters of the United States, Potential Non -wetland Waters of
the United States, wetland, stream, open water, etc. Please include the acreage and
linear length of these features as appropriate.

Explanation: The feature(s) listed above that are checked "Subject" to the Johnston County Neuse
Riparian Buffer Ordinance (Section 14-393 Johnston County Code of Ordinances) has or have been

approximately shown on either the Soil Survey of Johnston County, North Carolina (1994) or the most
recent version of the 1:24,000 (7.5 minute) quadrangle topographic maps prepared by the United States
Geologic Survey (USGS), and have been located on the property and possess characteristics that qualify
it to be a stream. Each feature that is checked "Not Subject" has been determined not to be a stream or is
not present on the property. There may be other streams located on your property that do not show up on
the maps referenced above but still may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of
Engineers and/or the North Carolina Division of Water Resources.
This on -site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. Landowners or
affected parties that dispute a determination made by Johnston County may request a
determination by the Director of the Division of Water Resources c/o the 401 and Buffer Permitting
Unit, or its successor. An appeal request must be made within sixty (60) days of the date of this
letter or from the date the affected party (including downstream and/or adjacent owners) is notified
of this letter. A request for a determination by the Director must be submitted in writing with a
copy of this letter to:
North Carolina Division of Water Resources

IPaC resource list
This report is an automatically generated list of species and other resources such as
critical habitat (collectively referred to as trust resources) under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service's (USFWS) jurisdiction that are known or expected to be on or near the project
area referenced below. The list may also include trust resources that occur outside of the
project area, but that could potentially be directly or indirectly affected by activities in the
project area. However, determining the iikelihood and extent of effects a project may
have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional site -specific (e.g.,
vegetation/species surveys) and project -specific (e.g., magnitude and timing of proposed
activities) information. N k
Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for
the USFWS office(s) with jurisdiction in the defined project area. Please read the
introduction to each section that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds, USFWS
Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for additional information applicable to the trust resources
addressed in that section.

Endangered species
The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each
species. Additional areas of influence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI
includes areas outside of the species range if the species could be indirectly affected by
activities in that area (e.g., placing a dam upstream of a fish population even if that fish
does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly impact the species by reducing or
eliminating water flow downstream). Because species can move, and site conditions can
change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near the project
area. To fully determine any potential effects to species, additional site -specific and
project -specific information is often required. N
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the
Secretary information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be
present in the area of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted,
funded, or licensed by any Federal agency. A letter from the local office and a species list
which fulfills this requirement can only be obtained by requesting an official species list
from either the Regulatory Review section in IPaC (see directions below) or from the local
field office directly. J�
For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC
website and request an official species list by doing the following:
1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE.
2. Click DEFINE PROJECT.
3. Log in (if directed to do so).
4. Provide a name and description for your project.
5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST.
Listed species and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program
of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the fisheries division of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries).
Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not
shown on this list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under their jurisdiction.
1. Species listed under the Endangered Species Act are threatened or endangered; IPaC
also shows species that are candidates, or proposed, for listing. See the listing status
page for more information. IPaC only shows species that are regulated by USFWS (see
FAQ).
2. NOAA Fisheries, also known as the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), is an
office of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration within the Department
of Commerce.

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:
1. 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 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.
To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the
ba r.
} � i
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.
To see a bar's survey effort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
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.

Tell me more about conservation measures I Can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to
migratory birds.
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 avoidingtheir 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 maybe 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 blyds that potentially occur in my specified
location? owl 'k
The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern [BCC). and other
species that may warrant special attention in your project location.
The migratory bird list generated foryour project is derived from data provided by the Avian
Knowledge Network cAKN). 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 vulnerabilityto 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 (BC -Rs)
in the continental USA; and
3. "Nor} -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).
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 implementto Yelp avoid
and minimize migratory bird impacts and requiCements 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
wehpage.
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 Stub and the nanotag studies
or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam Loring.
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.
Coastal Barrier Resources System,_1O(\0
Projects within the John K Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) may be
subject to the restrictions on Federal expenditures and financial assistance and the
consultat}on requirements of the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (CBRA) (15 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.). For more information, please contact the local Ecological Services Field Office or
visit the CBRA Consultations website. The CBRA website provides tools such as a flow
chart to help determine whether consultation is required and a template to facilitate the
consultation process. **
There are no known coastal barriers at this location.
Data limitations
The CBRS boundaries used in IPaC are representations of the controlling boundaries, which are
depicted an the official CBRS maps, The boundaries depicted in this layer are not to be considered
authoritative for in/out determinations close to a CBRS boundary (i.e., within the "CBRS Buffer Zone"
that appears as a hatched area on either side of the boundary). For projects that are very close to a
CBRS boundary but do not clearly intersect a unit, you may contact the Service for an official
determination by following the instructions here: https://www.fws.gov/service/coastal-barrier-
resources-system-property-documentation
Data exclusions
CBRS units extend seaward out to either the 20- or 30-foot bathymetric contour (depending on the
location of the unit). The true seaward extent of the units is not shown in the CBRS data, therefore
projects in the offshore areas of units (e.g., dredging, breakwaters, offshore wind energy or oil and gas
projects) may be subject to CBRA even if they do not intersect the CBRS data. For additional
information, please contact [e-mail].

Wetlands in the National Wetlands
nventory (NWI) t_jI--'
Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats may be subject to regulation under
Section 444 of the Clean Water Act, or other State/Federal statutes.
For more information please contact the Regulatory Program of the local U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers District.
V*.-I41
This location did not intersect any wetlands mapped by NWI.
NOTE: This initial screening does not replace an on -site delineation to determine whether
wetlands occur. Additional information on the NWI data is provided below.
Data limitations
The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level
information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis
of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography.
A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on -the -ground inspection of any
particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through
image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the
image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth
verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source

imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work.
There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information
depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.
Data exclusions
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations
of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include
seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of
estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm
reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go
undetected by aerial imagery.
Data precautions
Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe
wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the
design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state,
or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government
agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland
areas should seek the advice of appropriate Federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified
agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.

RE: Green Pine Estates
Dear wyatt brown:
❑. Reid Wilson, Secretary
Misty Buchanan
Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
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:
httr)s://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.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at rod ney.butler�ncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program
