Boylan Avenue Raleigh, NC 27603 (919)828-0531 Re: Minor Modification of the Non -Discharge Permit for the Holly Ridge WWTP (WQ0019907) Onslow Water and Sewer Authority Dear Reviewer: The Onslow Water and Sewer Authority (ONWASA) currently operates the Holly Ridge Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and the Summerhouse WWTP. The Holly Ridge WWTP currently discharges to a sprayfields site. ONWASA is building a new 1-MGD Southeast Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) and converting the sprayfields site to an infiltration basin site. Treated effluent from the new Southeast WRF will normally be discharged to 26 new infiltration basins. However, there will be an option to pump treated effluent from the new WRF to the infiltration basin pump station wet well at Summerhouse via a new 8-inch force main. This will allow discharge of treated effluent to the existing Summerhouse infiltration basins at a future date. This force main is to be installed in a separate Transmission contract (ONWASA SE Service Area Wastewater Capacity Improvements: Contact 1). Contract 1 construction is not being permitted under the recently submitted Holly Springs major non -discharge permit application. Based on discussion with Non -Discharge Unit personnel, the new 8-inch treated effluent return line constitutes a minor modification to the existing Holly Ridge WWTP Non -Discharge permit. To that end, on behalf of ONWASA we are sending this application for a minor modification to the Holly Ridge WWTP non -discharge permit (WO0019907). We desire permission to construct the 8-inch force main under the minor permit; operation of the line would be part of the major modification to the non - discharge permit or in a modification to the Summerhouse WWTP permit. The application package includes the Wastewater Irrigation Systems Checklist as well as the following sections: A. Cover Letter & Project Narrative C.

Sincerely, THE WOOTP Y Carl Schar, cc: David Mohr & Jeff Lohr, ONWASA TheWootenCompany.Com DESIGNING THE FUTURE SECTION A Detailed Project Narrative DETAILED PROJECT NARRATIVE Holly Ridge Non -Discharge Permit Minor Modification, WQ0019907 Overview The Onslow Water and Sewer Authority (ONWASA) is currently designing capacity improvements in their Southeast Service Area. The capacity improvements are to be constructed in three bid contracts as listed below: Contract 1: Transmission. Two new pump stations and connecting force mains would be constructed under this contract. The new Holly Ridge pump station, located at the existing Holly Ridge WWTP, will pump wastewater flows from the Holly Ridge collection system to the new Summerhouse pump station. The new Summerhouse pump station, to be constructed at the existing Summerhouse WWTP, will pump Holly Ridge flows, Summerhouse subdivision flows, and future subdivisions flows to the new Southeast Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). The transmission infrastructure in Contract 1 is to be permitted in the Fast Track program under the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). Contract 1 also includes installation of a new 8-inch diameter treated effluent return line to transport treated effluent from the new WRF effluent pump station to the existing Summerhouse WWTP reclaimed water pump station wet well. The return line will be installed parallel to the new 16-inch raw wastewater line pumping wastewater from the new Summerhouse Pump Station to the new SE WRF. The new 8-inch line is to be installed under Contract 1 as the 16-inch and 8-inch would be installed parallel to each other and construction of these two lines simultaneously minimizes the environmental impact (versus separate installation of the lines) and is most efficient from a construction time and cost perspective. Figure I is a vicinity map for Contract 1. Figure 2 depicts the new 8-inch treated effluent transfer line route. Figure 3 is a topographic map for the 8-inch line route. Contract 2: WWTP. Construction of a new 1.0-MGD Southeast Wastewater Reclamation Facility (WRF) at the existing Holly Ridge spray field site. Contract 3: Infiltration Basins. Construction of twenty-six (26) new infiltration basins at the existing Holly Ridge spray field site. Infrastructure under Contracts 2 and 3 above are to be permitted under a separate Holly Ridge WWTP Major Non -Discharge permit modification. Contract 2 includes the treated effluent transfer pumps and thus ONWASA 1 of 3 Holly Ridge WWTP Non -Discharge Detailed Project Narrative Minor Permit Modification SECTION A Detailed Project Narrative this is included in the major permit modification. This major permit modification application was submitted to NCDEQ on January 27, 2023. Proposed Minor Permit Modification Treated effluent produced by the Southeast Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) will normally be pumped from the effluent pump station to the 26 new infiltration basins. However, a second set of pumps at the effluent pump station are provided to pump treated effluent to the existing reclaimed water pump station at the existing Summerhouse WWTP. This set of pumps includes two constant speed, submersible pumps (one duty, one standby). The firm capacity of the transfer pumps is 350 gpm, which is 50 gpm below the 400 gpm capacity of the existing Summerhouse infiltration basin feed pump station. These pumps are not part of this minor permit modification, but a part of the major permit modification already submitted. The proposed project to be permitted under this minor modification to the Holly Ridge Non -Discharge Permit is only for the 8-inch effluent transfer force main. Specifically, the minor permit modification is for construction of approximately 7,400 Linear Feet (LF) of the 8-inch effluent return line to be installed under Contract 1. The portion of the 8-inch line on the new Southeast WRF site will be installed under Contract 2 and falls under the major modification non -discharge permit application. There is no section of the 8-inch transfer pipe that is located within the 100-year floodplain. The new Southeast WRF and its fence line are located on a 250-acre parcel owned by the Town of Holly Ridge and leased under a long-term lease to ONWASA. The lease agreement is included in this permit application under Section A Property Ownership Documentation. The existing Summerhouse WWTP is located on a 5.52-acre parcel owned by ONWASA. The parcel report and deed for this property is also under Section A A number of easements along Holly Ridge Road and Dolph Everett Road are required for the alignment of the 8-inch transfer force main. ONWASA is currently negotiating these easements. The existing flow meter at the reclaimed pump station will be used to track the flow volume and rate pumped from new Southeast WRF to the Summerhouse infiltration basins (permitted under the Summerhouse Non -Discharge Permit). Per NCDEQ Non -Discharge Branch requirements, a Minor Permit Modification application to the existing Holly Ridge permit (WQ0019907) is to be submitted separately from the Major Permit Modification application. This is to allow construction of the treated effluent line. Operation of the treated effluent line would be at a future date in a manner determined by NCDEQ and under the major permit modification.

Internal air pressure, including adjustment for ground water, should never exceed 9.0 psi. 3) When the above required pressure is reached, throttle air supply to maintain internal pressure for at least two minutes to permit stabilization. 4) When pressure has stabilized at required pressure, shut off air supply. 5) While observing the continuous monitoring pressure gauge, decrease pressure approximately 0.5 psi from required pressure. 6) At this reading timing shall commence with a stop watch and allowed to run until pressure has dropped 1.0 psi or allowable time has lapsed. Line shall be "Acceptable" if the pressure drop does not exceed 1 psig in the time prescribed for the test in Table 1, Low Pressure Air Testing for Gravity Sewer Mains, at the end of this section. 5. Deflection Test for SDR 35 and Ribbed (ASTM F 949) PVC pipe. a. Measure for deflection of pipe no sooner than thirty days after installation and backfill. b. Deflection shall not exceed 5 percent of pipe diameter. Maximum allowable long term deflection shall be 5 percent. c. Measure deflection with an approved "GO -NO-GO GAUGE" method or by an approved recording deflectometer. Verify gauge on site prior to testing. SE Area Wastewater Capacity Improvements Sanitary Sewer System - 02530-16 Contract 1: Transmission D. Vacuum test each manhole in accordance with ASTM C1244 and the following: 1. No personnel shall be allowed in manhole during testing. 2. Test manhole after assembly and prior to backfilling. 3. Plug pipes with suitably sized and rated pneumatic or mechanical pipeline plugs. Brace plugs to prevent displacement. 4. Position vacuum test head assembly to seal against interior surface of the top of cone section in accordance with manufacturer's recommendation. 5. Draw vacuum of 10 inches of mercury on manhole. Shut off the vacuum pump and close valve on vacuum line. 6. Measure time for vacuum to drop to 9 inches of mercury. Manhole shall pass if time meets or exceeds the following: Manhole I.D. (inches) 48 60 72 84 96 120 Seconds 60 75 90 105 120 150 7. If manhole fails test, remove head assembly, coat interior with a soap and water solution, and repeat vacuum test for approximately 30 seconds. Leaking areas will have soapy bubbles. Make necessary repairs to the satisfaction of Engineer and repeat test until manhole passes. E. Air Release Valves 1. Hydrostatic pressure leakage test at '/2, 1, and 1 '/2, times the valves rated pressure. Each test pressure level shall be held for not less than 5 minutes. Valves showing signs of leakage or weeping shall be rejected. 2. Low head vacuum leakage test at 0 psi. The valve shall be rejected if the valve shows any leakage after 2 minutes. Valves rated at zero pressure sealing will be tested at 0.1 psi for 5 minutes.

This document contains engineering calculations for the following as part of transmission project (Contract 1): • Treated Effluent Force Main from the new Southeast WRF to the existing Summerhouse reclaimed pump station wet well. 2.0 CALCULATIONS Treated effluent produced by the Southeast Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) will normally be pumped from the effluent pump station to the 26 new infiltration basins. However, a second set of pumps at the effluent pump station (i.e., the Transfer Pump Station) are provided to pump treated effluent through an effluent return line to the existing reclaimed water pump station at the existing Summerhouse WWTP. Calculations for transfer pump station are provided in the major permit modification and not in this document. The firm capacity of these transfer pumps is 350 gpm, which is below the capacity of the Summerhouse infiltration basin feed pump station. Thus, 350 gpm is the design flow in the treated effluent transfer forcemain. Flow from the station will be transported through approximately 7,400 Linear Feet (LF) of the fl- inch effluent transfer force main from the new Southeast WRF fence to the existing Summerhouse reclaim water pump station wet well. From there, this water would be applied to the existing Summerhouse infiltration basin via the existing Summerhouse WWTP reclaim water pump station. Calculations for the transfer pump station are attached. These calculations were performed for the major permit application, but do show and confirm that the scour velocity in the new transfer forcemain (see Appendix A). Table 1 below provides the design criteria for the new treated effluent transfer forcemain.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING ONWASA Holly Ridge Wastewater System Improvements Onslow Water & Sewer Authority, Onslow County NC Endangered Species Biological Assessment -- 02 February 2023 Prepared for: The Wooten Company, Raleigh NC Dim MOGENSEN MITIGATION, INC Mogensen Mitigation, Inc. (MMI) biologists conducted a biological assessment of potential impacts to federal and state listed endangered and threatened animal and plant species that may occur in the vicinity of Holly Ridge in Onslow County NC, in areas where the Onslow Water and Sewer Authority (ONWASA) is planning to construct improvements to the local wastewater treatment system. A biological assessment is required for federal and state permitting and public funding for the project. Project Description ONWASA operates a wastewater spray field facility on a 250 acre site owned by the Town of Holly Ridge (Parcel # 4258001-08610) located at the north end of Dolph Everett Rd, approximately three miles ENE from downtown Holly Ridge (Figures 1 and 2). ONWASA is planning to convert the spray fields to a wastewater infiltration basin facility to meet the expected increased capacity need due to growth in the service area. The existing Holly Ridge wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) on Jenkins Street will be decommissioned and replaced with a new pump station, and new 12-inch and 16-inch force mains will be installed along existing utility corridors (2,100 feet) and roadsides (11,800 feet) to convey the raw wastewater to a new 1.0 MGD WWTP to be built on the spray field site. Conversion of the wastewater spray irrigation facility to an infiltration facility will involve excavating a series of 26 basins, roughly one acre each, within the three existing spray fields (Figure 9). Each basin will be excavated 8 to 10 feet below the existing grade, and a 3 to 5-foot above ground berm erected around it. A network of 6 to fl- inch diameter slotted drainage pipes will be installed in the surficial aquifer about 2 to 4 feet below the basin bottoms, with a surface sand layer in each basin interior (Figure 10). Highly treated effluent from the new WWTP will be applied to fill up the basins. The water will infiltrate into the basin sand layer, then flow to the drainage pipes which will connect to ground water lowering submersible pump stations. These stations will pump the groundwater into three constructed discharge swales (one discharge per field) with a terminal rip rap apron to reduce discharge velocity and protect against soil erosion. The discharge water will then flow by a combination of overland flow and infiltration into the adjacent forested areas and ultimately into the ditches and stream flowing southward along the eastern side of the site to Kings Creek. The WWTP effluent is currently treated to standards that meet groundwater quality regulations. The infiltration basins will provide an additional final stage in the treatment process, promoting natural microbes in the sand layer to further "polish" the effluent before discharge on land. The pumped groundwater discharge will meet requirements under NC-DEQ Non -Discharge permitting rules. The current rules do not allow direct discharge of the treated effluent into tidal waters in this area; thus, the infiltration basins are a necessary part of the effluent treatment and disposal system for this project. Environmental Field Studies ■ Wetland & Stream Delineation ■ 404-401 Permits ■ Mitigation Plans & Banking MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. The infiltration basin drain system and groundwater pumping will lower the groundwater table in the area around the basins. To avoid unintended groundwater withdrawal from the adjacent wetlands, the design includes plastic barrier material along the outer edges of the drain trenches nearest to the wetland areas (Figure 10). The discharge of pumped groundwater will add water to the wetlands in the overland flow areas beyond the riprap dissipators. Environmental Setting & Habitat Impacts The project area is in the Kings Creek watershed (Class SC-Sw-HQW) in USGS HUC # 03020302-0301 in the New River basin. The only tidal waters near the project area is the lower segment of Kings Creek in the vicinity of Holly Ridge Rd, 1200 feet west of the Summerhouse WWTP. The existing force main along this segment is sized appropriately and no further improvements are needed in this area. All other waterways and wetlands in the project area are non -tidal freshwaters and are not Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC) subject to Coastal Area Management Act regulation. Force Main Corridors The force main corridors evaluated extend from the existing Holly Ridge WWTP at the north end of Jenkins Street southeast along existing off -road utility corridors and then southwest along Homestead Lane and Stump Sound Church Rd, and southeast along Morris Landing Rd to the intersection with Holly Ridge Rd where the new line will connect to an existing 12-inch line running northeast along Holly Ridge Rd. From this intersection eastward to the Summerhouse WWTP, the existing force main will convey the flows and no new pipe is needed. A new pump station will also be built beside the Summerhouse WWTP, and a new 16-inch force main will be installed east of Summerhouse along Holly Ridge Rd and then north along Dolph Everett Rd to the proposed WWTP on the spray field site. Approximatley 2,100 feet of force main corridor is off -road along utility corridors and 11,800 feet are along public road rights -of -way. The off -road segment from the Holly Ridge WWTP to Homestead Lane crosses a small -stream swamp, a mesic mixed pine -hardwood slope, and dry-mesic pine -oak woodland. The upslope areas adjacent to the corridor had been recently clear-cut at the time of the field evaluation; aerial imagery shows it as predominantly pine forest prior to clear -cutting. The swamp and floodplain immediately east of the WWTP including stream B and wetland DE (Figure 5C) were densely forested. Wetland FIG is in a slight depression (possibly an old road bed?) half way up the slope. The proposed force main segment crossing these two wetlands and one stream will be installed by horizontal directional drilling (HDD) beginning and ending in uplands, to avoid disturbance in these habitats. Upslope of wetland FG, the pipe will be installed by open -trenching in a 30 to 40 ft wide temporary construction corridor. The roadside force main segments from Homestead Lane to Holly Ridge Rd are bordered by a mix of residential land and mixed pine and hardwood forest. Four headwater seep wetlands are located along the south side of Morris Landing Rd but do not extend beyond the roadside ditch along the north side where the force main will be installed (Figures 5D and 5E). The force main along these roads will be installed by open -trenching in a temporary construction corridor extending 20 to 30 ft beyond the edge of pavement. The roadside force main segments from the Summerhouse WWTP to Dolph Everett Rd are bordered by a mix of residential and agricultural land, recreational land (Summerhouse Golf course), NC-WRC game lands, and mixed pine and hardwood forest. A small stream swamp and perennial tributary to Kings Creek (K1) crosses Dolph Everett Rd approximately 850 feet north of Holly Ridge Rd (Figure 5F). The force main crossing this stream and wetland will be installed by HDD beginning and ending in uplands, to avoid disturbance in these habitats. Other force main segments along these roads will be installed by open -trenching in a temporary construction corridor NMwww.Mogmit.com Page 12 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. extending 20 to 30 ft beyond the edge of pavement. The raw wastewater line flowing north and a reuse line flowing south will be installed along the east side of Dolph Everett Rd, and a potable water line to supply the new WWTP will be installed along the west side of Dolph Everett Rd. The intermittent stream (K2) that crosses the existing gravel access road at the southwest corner of the spray field site and its adjacent wetland RA is the only area where open -trench force main installation will affect streams or wetlands (Figure 5H). Spray Field Site (Infiltration Basins and WWTP) Elevations on the spray field site range from 20 feet above NAVD in the Kings Creek tributary along the southern edge of the site to 45 feet on the northwest portion. USDA soil mapping on the site indicates Goldsboro, Baymeade, and Pactolus series soils on the drier areas, Leon and Torhunta series soils on wetter flats, and Muckalee loam along the small stream corridors on the northwest and southwest portions of the site (Figures 2 and 3). The property was mostly ditched and bedded for pine plantation use prior to 1980, and the streams along the eastern and southern sides of the site were channelized and partially straightened (Figure 6). Drainage ditches and silvicultural bedding ridges and swales are visible across most of the site in aerial images from the 1980s to 2003. The three existing spray fields, wastewater holding pond, roads, and related facilities were built in 2004 to 2005 and occupy approximately 115 acres of former pine plantation areas (Figure 5). The least disturbed habitat on the site is a 5-acre area of swamp and adjacent forested slopes near the northwest corner of the site, which includes approximately 1,000 feet of a small headwater swamp stream. The remaining 130 acres contains second -growth mixed pine and hardwood forest with a dense understory shrubs and vines including Ilex, Morella, Vaccinium, Persea, Symplocos, Lyonia, Smilax, Vitis, Gelsemium, and other plants characteristic of pine flatwoods and pocosin communities. A majority of the remaining forested area appears to be wetlands, despite the many drainage ditches that have probably lowered the water table. Adjacent lands to the west, north, and east are mostly wooded, including the Folkstone Savanna Conservation Area managed by the NC Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC). Adjacent lands to the south include a mix of wooded, agricultural, and rural residential lands, including the Stones Creek Game Lands and dove hunting fields, also managed by WRC (Figure 8). Most of the proposed land disturbance on the spray field property for the new WWTP and infliltration basins will be within the existing spray fields, which contain managed grasses and various native and non-native weeds typical of agricultural fields. There are four areas with natural scrub and woody vegetation that will be disturbed: 1) a 2.0 acre wooded wetland/upland patch in the middle of spray field #1 (Figures 5G and 9A) 2) a 0.5 acre wooded upland area on the east side of spray field #1 (Figures 5G and 9A) 3) 850 ft of access road for upstream water sampling on the northeast side of spray field #1 (Figure 9A) 4) 150 ft of access road for downstream water sampling on the southeast side of spray field #2 (Figure 913) The 2.0 acre isolated forest patch in spray field #1 (34.5145,-77.5017) has a canopy of 20 to 30 year old planted loblolly and longleaf pines, and understory of mixed hardwoods, shrubs, and vines. A ditch excavated between 1999 and 2002 runs through a wetland in the middle, draining northward offsite into another ditch. Approximately half of this forest patch area is wetland. A depression at the upper (south) end of this area - possibly a limesink depression - has an open understory including Nyssa, Cyrilla, Ilex, and Lyonia, and sparse groundcover including Juncus, Ludwigia, and mosses. No standing water was present during the field study in December 2021, but swollen bases on the older trees suggest that the depression formerly held ponded water NMwww.Mogmit.com Page 13 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. and may still during wet weather. Beyond the central wet depression and ditch, the remaining area is dense shrub and sapling forest. The 0.5 acre affected area to the east of spray field #1 (34.5148,-77.4988) is an upland ridge that appears to have been a staging area for timber harvesting and silvicultural bedding operations in the 1980s, and possibly also for hunting access. Planted loblolly pines in this area are smaller and less dense than in the adjacent lower and wetter areas to the north and south. The understory is shrub and sapling -dominated, including Liquidambar, Nyssa, Acer, Quercus, Ilex, Vaccinium, Cyrilla, Lyonia, Morella, Persea. Predominant groundcover plants are Vaccinium, Lyonia, Andropogon, Arundinaria, Gelsemium, Smilax, Vitis, and Campsis. The two water sampling access road corridors traverse former pine plantation land that has been naturalizing back to a pine flatwoods/pocosin community for about 20 years. Vegetation is similar to that described above on the 0.5 acre upland ridge, but with denser thickets of Smilax, Vitis, Campsis and other vines. Federal Endangered & Threatened Species The US Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) Information, Planning, and Consultation (IPaC) evaluation tool currently lists 17 endangered or threatened species reported from Onslow County that might occur in or near the project area (Table 1). One additional endangered species, the Atlantic sturgeon, is also reported in the estuary at the mouth of Kings Creek, based on National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) data.

Federal Species Accounts and Likelihood of Impacts Species descriptions and habitat requirements were compiled from US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP), NC Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC), and other published and online sources. Previously reported locations within several miles of the project area were obtained from the NHP Data Explorer and NC Wildlife Resources Commission. Characteristics for identifying potentially suitable habitats for each species are described in the species accounts below. Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis) -- Endangered Northern long-eared bats roost in colonies in caves and mines in western NC during winter. Bat hibernacula caves have relatively stable temperatures, high humidity, and minimal air currents. In spring, the bats leave their hibernacula and migrate across much of NC to their summer foraging areas, usually with a mix of forested and open habitat, where they feed on flying insects over fields, rivers, and other open habitats. During the warm seasons these bats roost singly or in small colonies in cavities or crevices of live or dead trees, beneath loose bark, or in buildings. Maternity roost sites, often in hollow trees or rock crevices, are occupied during the pup rearing season from June through July. The NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) has only one recent record of Northern long-eared bat in Onlsow County, in summer along the White Oak River more than 20 miles from the project area. There is no known winter hibernaculum for Northern long-eared bats in Onslow County or elsewhere in eastern NC; these bats may occur near the project area during spring to early fall, and may roost in trees on the site. The project will require removing potentially suitable roosting trees (mostly Pinus, Nyssa, Acer, and Liquidambar) from 2.5 acres on the spray field site and up to 1.3 acres in narrow strips along the roadside force main corridors. The other 128 acres of forest habitat on the spray field site will remain undisturbed. If necessary, tree removal can be conducted during November to March when Northern long-eared bats are unlikely to be in the area. Based on this analysis, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Northern long-eared bat. Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subflavus) -- Proposed Endangered Tricolored bats roost in colonies during winter in caves, mines, and rock crevices in western NC, and in road culverts and similar cave -like features in eastern NC. Compared with the Northern long-eared bat, Tricolored bats have a less distinct hibernation period and may emerge to forage during warm periods in winter. During AIMwww.Mogmit.com Page 15 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. the warm seasons, these bats migrate across much of NC to forage in both forested and open habitats, where they feed on flying insects over fields, rivers, and other open habitats. They roost singly or in small colonies in cavities or crevices of live or dead trees, beneath loose bark, under bridges and culverts, or in buildings. Maternity roost sites are occupied during the pup rearing season from June through July. NHP has recent records of Tricolored bats at Camp Lejeune and Holly Shelter Game Lands; both sites are at least 10 miles from the project area. Tricolored bats may occur near the project area year-round, and may roost in trees or culverts on the site. The project will require removing potentially suitable roosting trees (mostly Pinus, Nyssa, Acer, and Liquidambar) from 2.5 acres on the spray field site and up to 1.3 acres in narrow strips along the roadside force main corridors. The other 128 acres of forest habitat on the spray field site will remain undisturbed. If necessary, tree removal can be conducted during November to March when Tricolored bats are unlikely to be using trees as roost sites. Based on this analysis, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Tricolored Bat. Red -cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis) -- Endangered The Red -cockaded woodpecker (RCW) occurs in large areas of mature pine -dominated forest, typically 80 to 100 acres or more. Unlike other woodpeckers, they excavate cavities for nesting and roosting exclusively in live pines, typically 80 years or older and surrounded by an open understory with minimal hardwood encroachment or climbing vines. They live in small groups comprising a breeding pair and one to three "helpers" that are often the pair's offspring from previous years. Foraging habitat comprises pine -dominated stands at least 10-inch diameter (generally 30 years or older) with sparse understory and within 0.5 mile from the cavity trees. Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base has been managing land for RCW since the 1980s and now has many RCW breeding groups in areas east and west of the New River. Other active groups are known in Pender County west of Holly Ridge. The nearest known active group is about 6 miles from the project area. Two historical RCW sites are known in the Sneads Ferry area, 3 to 5 miles east of the project area; both sites have been inactive since 1980 or earlier. There is no suitable RCW nesting habitat on the project site. Pines in areas with open understory are too young and small to be suitable for cavities, and the older, larger pines occur only in areas with dense sub -canopy and understory trees and shrubs. Pine stands 30 years or older on the spray field site and along the force main corridors may now be suitable as foraging habitat for RCW groups nesting off -site, but there is no known active group within several miles from the project area. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the Red -cockaded woodpecker. Pondberry (Lindera melissifolia) -- Endangered Pondberry is similar to the widespread Common spicebush but has far more restrictive habitat requirements, being limited to shallow seasonal pools and wet depressions in four NC counties. Suitable habitat may be in clay -based Carolina bays or similar wet depressions, generally associated with pine flatwoods and pocosin shrub communities. Like Roughleaf loosestrife and Cooley's meadowrue, this shrub relies on periodic fire to limit the growth of trees and taller shrubs and maintain sufficient sun exposure for survival. NHP has two known sites that support Pondberry in Onslow County, both on Camp Lejeune property. The nearest is approximately four miles north of the project area. ranwww.Mogmit.com Page 16 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. The wet depression in the isolated forest patch in spray field #1 might have been suitable habitat for Pondberry prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered it unsuitable at present. The remaining areas that will be affected by the project are previously cleared fields, non -wetland forests, and dense scrubby forests which are not suitable habitats. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the Pondberry. Roughleaf loosestrife (Lysimachia asperulifolia) -- Endangered Roughleaf loosestrife occurs in wet pine savannas and open edges of pocosins and wet pine flatwoods where periodic fires every few years to prevent shrubs and trees from overshadowing them. In areas without periodic fires, remaining populations often persist along roadsides and utility rights -of -way where occasional mowing limits the growth of trees and shrubs. There are several recent records of Roughleaf loosestrife on Camp Lejeune property north of the project site and on Holly Shelter Game Lands in Pender County to the west; the nearest known site is on Camp Lejeune 1.5 mile from the project site. The wet depression in the isolated forest patch in spray field #1 might have been suitable habitat for Roughleaf loosestrife prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered it unsuitable at present. The wetland edges where Roughleaf loosestrife could have occurred is now dominated by dense shrubs and vines. The remaining areas that will be affected by the project are previously cleared fields, non -wetland forests, and dense scrubby forests which are not suitable habitats. No suitable habitat was observed along the force main corridors. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect Roughleaf loosestrife. Cooley's meadowrue (Thalictrum cooleyi) -- Endangered Cooley's meadowrue occurs in wet pine savannas and open edges of pocosins and wet pine flatwoods with high pH soils (near neutral) derived from marl (limestone), which is a rare habitat in the NC Coastal Plain. Like Roughleaf loosestrife and Pondberry, it requires periodic fires to prevent overgrowth of shrubs and trees. In areas without periodic fires, remaining populations often persist along roadsides and utility rights -of -way where occasional mowing limits woody competition. Nearly all of the known records for Cooley's meadowrue in NC are in a small area in western Onslow County and eastern Pender County where the Castle Hayne Formation limestone occurs at shallow depths; the nearest site is 9 miles from the project area. Wetland habitats on the project site appear to have acidic soils that are not suitable for Cooley's meadowrue; we did not observe any characteristic calciphile plant species. Habitats beyond the mowed spray fields also have excessively dense woody vegetation due to past land management and fire suppression. The remaining areas that will be affected by the project are previously cleared fields, non -wetland forests, and dense scrubby forests which are not suitable habitats. No suitable habitat was observed along the force main corridors. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect Cooley's meadowrue. Black Rail (Laterallus jamaicensis) -- Threatened The Black rail forages and nests in brackish marshes and the lower portions of tidal freshwater marshes. It does not inhabit forests or dense shrub -dominated habitats. The nearest suitable marsh habitat for the Black Rail is in the tidal portion of Kings Creek 0.2 mile southwest of the Summerhouse WWTP. There is no NHP records of Black Rail within several miles, and the project will not affect the Kings Creek marshes. The advanced ranwww.Mogmit.com Page 17 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. wastewater treatment method and land disposal should protect water quality in Kings Creek. Based on the lack of suitable habitat, the project is not likely to affect the Black Rail. American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) -- Threatened by Similarity of Appearance The American Alligator is not a federally endangered or threatened species, but is listed as Threatened by Similarity of Appearance (TSA) to protect the American Crocodile from hunting and trade. However, the Alligator is listed as threatened under state law. Alligators occur in coastal plain rivers, lakes, and swamps and marshes adjacent to open water bodies, from fresh to slightly brackish. They do not normally inhabit forests or dense shrub -dominated habitats along small headwater streams. The nearest suitable habitat for Alligators is in the tidal portion of Kings Creek 0.2 mile southwest of the Summerhouse WWTP. NHP has recent records of Alligators in Kings Creek south of Holly Ridge Rd, but no project impacts are planned in that area. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the American Alligator. Atlantic Sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus) -- Endangered West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus) -- Threatened The Atlantic Sturgeon and West Indian Manatee occur in coastal ocean waters, estuaries, and rivers. Most of their time is spent in tidal areas, but sturgeon adults migrate far upstream into freshwater rivers to spawn. Neither sturgeon nor manatees inhabit small headwater streams. The nearest suitable habitat for Atlantic Sturgeon and West Indian Manatee is in the tidal portion of Kings Creek 0.2 mile southwest of the Summerhouse WWTP. NHP has recent records of Atlantic Sturgeon in Everett Bay and Topsail Sound near the mouth of Kings Creek, and Manatee records near the mouth of New River several miles farther east. The advanced wastewater treatment method and land disposal should protect water quality in Kings Creek. Based on this analysis, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Atlantic Sturgeon and West Indian Manatee. Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus) -- Threatened Red Knot (Calidris canutus rufa) -- Threatened Seabeach Amaranth (Amaranthus pumilus) -- Threatened These three species (two shore birds and one plant) occur on ocean beaches and island end flats -- habitats that do not occur in the project vicinity. The nearest suitable beach habitat for any of these species is approximately three miles from the project area. NHP has recent records of Seabeach Amaranth from several locations along Topsail Island beaches, and records for the two birds toward the ends of the island 5 to 10 miles away. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the Piping Plover, Red Knot, or Seabeach Amaranth. Green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) -- Threatened Kemp's Ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys kempii) -- Endangered Leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) -- Endangered Loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) -- Threatened These four sea turtle species occur in the ocean, sounds, and brackish reaches of rivers, and nest exclusively on ocean beaches. The nearest suitable beach nesting habitat for these species is approximately three miles from the project area, and three of these species have site records in the estuarine waters near New River Inlet. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the Green sea turtle, Kemp's Ridley sea turtle, Leatherback sea turtle, or Loggerhead sea turtle. ranwww.Mogmit.com Page 18 MOGENSEN MITIGATfON. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. State -Listed Endangered & Threatened Species The NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) database was queried for records of rare animal and plant species listed as endangered, threatened, or special concern by the NC Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) and/or the NC Plant Conservation Program (PCP). The NHP report (21 December 2022) lists five additional plant species and three animal species other than the federal -listed species discussed above that are known within one mile of the project area (Table 2). Table 1. State Protected Species near Holly Ridge: from NC-NHP Query Report -- 21 Dec 2022 Scientific Name Common Name FWS NC Habitat in Onslow County Agalinis virgata Branched Gerardia -- T savannas and depression pond shores Dionaea muscuipula Venus Flytrap -- T savannas, seepage bogs, pocosin edges Asclepias pedicellata Savanna Milkweed -- SC mesic to dry savannas and moist pine flatwoods Cyperus lecontei Leconte's Flatsedge -- T limesink ponds Hypericum Coastal Plain Saint brachyphyllum John's -wort -- SC wet pine savannas Lachnocaulon minus Brown Bogbutton -- T depression ponds and ditches Polygala hookeri Hooker's Milkwort -- SC wet pine savannas Rhexia aristosa Awned Meadowbeauty -- SC clay -based Carolina bays and limesink ponds Crotalus adamanteus Eastern Diamondback -- E pine flatwoods, savannas, pine -oak sandhills Rattlesnake Sistrurus miliarius Carolina PigmyRattlesnake -- SC pine flatwoods, other pine/oak forests Ophisaurus mimicus Mimic Glass Lizard -- E pine flatwoods, savannas, pine -oak sandhills Seminatrix pygaea Carolina Swamp Snake -- SC dense vegetation in ponds, slow streams, ditches Venus Flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) -- Threatened Branched Gerardia (Agalinis virgata) -- Threatened The Venus Flytrap occurs in wet pine savannas, seeps, and open edges of pocosins and wet pine flatwoods where low nutrient levels and periodic fires every few years prevent trees, shrubs and dense herbs from overshadowing them. In areas without periodic fires, remaining populations often persist along roadsides and utility rights -of -way where occasional mowing limits the growth of competing plant species. There are several recent nearby records of Venus Flytrap in the Stones Creek Game Lands / Folkstone Savannas property. The wet depression in the isolated forest patch in spray field #1 might have been suitable habitat for the Venus Flytrap prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered it unsuitable at present. The wetland edges where Venus Flytraps could have occurred is now dominated by dense shrubs and vines. MMI searched for Venus Flytraps in this area and along field edges NMwww.Mogmit.com Page 19 MOGENSEN MITIGATfON. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. throughout the project site in December 2021 and did not find any. December is not the optimal season to search for this plant, but it is usually detectable at least until the first hard freeze, which had not yet occurred. The other areas that will be affected by the project are previously cleared fields, non -wetland forests, and dense scrubby forest that are not suitable habitats. The infiltration basins in the northern field are on the opposite side of Kings Creek from the Venus Flytrap sites on the adjacent property; the project is therefore not likely to affect groundwater levels or nutrient concentrations in the vicinity of those populations. Furthermore, the infiltration basins in the northern field will drain eastward, away from the Folkstone Savannas preserve area. Based on this analysis, the project is not likely to affect the Venus Flytrap. Savanna Milkweed (Asclepias pedicellata) -- Special Concern The Savanna Milkweed occurs in the drier portions of longleaf pine savannas and open edges in mesic pine flatwoods where periodic fires every few years to prevent shrubs and trees from overshadowing them. In areas without periodic fires, remaining populations often persist along roadsides and utility rights -of -way where occasional mowing limits the growth of trees and shrubs. There are recent records of Savanna Milkweed on Camp Lejeune property within one mile from the project site. Portions of the site might have been suitable habitat for the Savanna Milkweed prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered most of the site unsuitable or marginally suitable at present. The 0.5 acre upland forest area east of spray field #1 may have sufficiently open canopy to support this plant, but the substantial soil disturbance and use as pine plantation makes it unlikely that Savanna Milkweed could persist in this area. No suitable -looking habitat was observed along the force main corridors. This plant would not have been identifiable during the December field study; a presence or absence determination is therefore inconclusive. However, based on small area of impact and low quality of habitat, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Savanna Milkweed. Leconte's Flatsedge (Cyperus lecontei) -- Threatened Brown Bogbutton (Lachnocaulon minus) -- Threatened Leconte's Flatsedge and Brown Bogbutton grow along moist to wet edges of limesink pools and other wet depressions in pine savannas and thin -canopy areas of pine flatwoods where woody vegetation is limited by fires. In disturbed habitats they may persist along roadside drainage ditches and utility easements where periodic mowing reduces competition from taller plants. NHP has recent records of Leconte's Flatsedge and Brown Bogbutton on Camp Lejeune property near US-17 one to two miles from the project site. The wet depression in the isolated forest patch in spray field #1 might have been suitable habitat for Leconte's Flatsedge and Brown Bogbutton prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered it unsuitable or marginally suitable at present. The wetland edges are now dominated by dense shrubs and vines. These species would not have been identifiable during the December field study; a presence or absence determination is therefore inconclusive. The other areas that will be affected by the project are previously cleared fields, non -wetland forests; and dense scrubby forests which are not suitable habitats. No suitable -looking habitat was observed along the force main corridors. Based on small area of impact and low quality of habitat, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Leconte's Flatsedge and Brown Bogbutton. DAMwww.Mogmit.com Page 110 MOGENSEN MITIGATION. INC MOGENSEN MITIGATION INC. Coastal Plain St. John's -wort (Hypericum brachyphyllum) -- Special Concern Hooker's Milkwort (Polygala hookeri) -- Special Concern Hooker's Milkwort and Coastal Plain St. John's -wort grow almost exclusively in pine savannas with regular fires every few years to reduce competing woody vegetation. Unlike many other milkworts and St. John's -wort species, these plants seldom occur in ditches and disturbed sites. NHP has recent records of Hooker's Milkwort and Coastal Plain St. John's -wort on Camp Lejeune property near US-17 about one mile from the project site. Portions of the site might have been suitable habitat for Hooker's Milkwort and Coastal Plain St. John's -wort prior to 1980, but drainage ditching, forestry bedding, and fire suppression over the past 40+ years have rendered most of the site unsuitable or marginally suitable at present. The 0.5 acre upland forest area east of spray field #1 may have sufficiently open canopy to support this plant, but the substantial soil disturbance and use as pine plantation makes it unlikely that these two plants could persist in this area. These species would not have been identifiable during the December field study; a presence or absence determination is therefore inconclusive. However, based on small area of impact and low quality of habitat, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect Hooker's Milkwort and Coastal Plain St. John's -wort. Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus) -- Endangered Carolina Pigmy Rattlesnake (Sistrurus miliarius) -- Special Concern Mimic Glass Lizard (Ophisaurus mimicus) -- Endangered The Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake, Carolina Pigmy Rattlesnake, and Mimic Glass Lizard all occur in pine flatwoods, savannas, and pine -oak sandhill woodlands with open areas for sunning and deep holes from decayed tree stumps for use in winter and hot summer days. NHP records of these three species in the project vicinity are historical, from the 1940s to 1970s, including a Mimic Glass Lizard record from 1975 on Morris Landing Rd in the project area. These three reptiles are cryptic species, and populations could still occur in the project vicinity despite the lack of recent records. However, forestry bedding (including stump removal) and fire suppression over the past 40+ years has certainly degraded the habitat quality for these species across most of the project site. Patches of pine -oak woodlands along Homestead Lane and the off -road powerline corridor NE of Homestead Lane, and along Stump Sound Church Rd and Morris Landing Rd may be suitable. Based on the relatively small area of impact and low quality of remaining habitat, the project may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake, Carolina Pigmy Rattlesnake, and Mimic Glass Lizard. Carolina Swamp Snake (Seminatrix pygaea) -- Special Concern The Carolina Swamp Snake lives in dense aquatic and emergent plant beds in cypress -gum swamps, ponds, slow - flowing streams, and wide segments of ditches, where it feed on worms, small fish and amphibians. NHP records of this small snake in the project vicinity are historical, from the 1940s. The small channelized streams and ditches on the project site are shaded by dense trees and shrubs, and lack the aquatic and emergent plant beds that Carolina Swamp Snakes prefers. There is no suitable habitat for this species on the spray field site. The larger streams along the force main corridors on Dolph Everett Rd and east of the Holly Ridge WWTP might be suitable, but HDD installation will avoid impacts at these sites, Therefore, the project is not likely to affect the Carolina Swamp Snake.
