4. Project Description and History
4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: *
The eastern portion of the site is developed with the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home Park. However, due to the age and condition of the mobile homes, they were recently vacated,
demolished and removed and will be replaced with new, safe models that are aesthetically pleasing. The western portion of the site is undeveloped woodland. Long Creek, its unnamed
tributaries and adjacent forested headwater wetlands separate the eastern and western portions of the site (see below and attached Cover Letter). Sewer easements parallel Stream S1
and Stream S3 (Long Creek). The vicinity of the site is largely residential and commercial development. Interstate 77 is west of the site.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past? *
Yes No Unknown
4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
2.24 acre of wetlands
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
3,931 linear feet of stream channel
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: *
In response to the high demand for available, safe and affordable housing options within the community, the purpose of the proposed project is to expand the existing Countrywoods
Mobile Home Park located within the eastern portion of the site into the undeveloped western portion of the site as well as replace the existing unsafe, dilapidated mobile homes within the
eastern portion of the site.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The proposed project will include the development of 85 new single-family residential lots within the western portion of the project site, adjacent to the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home
Park in the eastern portion of the site for a total Built Upon Area of 5.07 acres (5.2 lots per acre; 14.1% of the project site). The new development will entail clearing; site grading;
installation of stormwater control features; connection of municipal water and sanitary sewer systems; and other needed infrastructure. Three stormwater retentions ponds for stormwater
control that will treat of 85% of total suspended solids (TSS) in stormwater runnoff will be constructed throughout the uplands within the western portion of the site.
Infrastructure required to access buildable land within the western portion of the site will require unavoidable, direct and permanent impacts to 127 linear feet (0.019 acre) of jurisdictional
WOTUS to Stream 1 and Stream 6 and 0.095 acre jurisdictional WOTUS to Wetland WA and Wetland WD/WJ. Construction will utilize typical clearing, grading and paving equipment.
Through the use of measures detailed in the approved soil erosion and sedimentation plan, indirect impacts to on -site and off -site streams and wetlands are not anticipated. As this is a
residential infill project surrounded by other residential developments that are well supported by existing infrastructure, no significant indirect impacts on -site or off -site are anticipated.
According to the Post Construction Stormwater Ordinance (PCSO) Summary Table (appended to the attached Cover Letter), 6.9 acres of undisturbed natural areas are required by the
PCSO for the project, however implementation of the proposed project will exceed the requirement and provide 13.36 acres of undisturbed natural areas as well as 6.75 acres of
undisturbed Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) buffers regulated by the Charlotte -Mecklenburg Stormwater Services along on -site streams.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas? *

Comments
See attached cover letter, Section 8.0 for additional regulatory compliance notes.
The proposed project satisfies the conditions of WQC 4256 and therefore does not require an Individual Water Quality Certification. Permanent wetland and stream impacts are below the
thresholds specified by WQC 4256. Impacts to waters of the U.S. are associated with the installation of permanent fill/structures: no stream/wetland restoration; stream relocation; or
jurisdictional pond dewatering are proposed. Though the proposed project is a high -density project disturbing more than one acre of land, it does have an approved Stormwater
Management Plan. Additionally, the project does not involve impacts to special designated waters or waters projected by state buffer regulations.
According to the Post Construction Stormwater Ordinance (PCSO) Summary Table (appended to the attached Cover Letter), 6.9 acres of undisturbed natural areas are required by the
PCSO for the project, however implementation of the proposed project will exceed the requirement and provide 13.36 acres of undisturbed natural areas as well as 6.75 acres of
undisturbed Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) buffers regulated by the Charlotte -Mecklenburg Stormwater Services along on -site streams.

Countrywoods Mobile Home Park Redevelopment and Improvement Project
5201 Victoria Avenue
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina III E
S&ME Project No. 212669
1.0 Project Information and Description
The proposed project is an expansion of the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home Park; a single-family residential
development located at 5201 Victoria Avenue, Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The project site is
approximately 27.59 acres comprised on Mecklenburg County Parcel (PID 03724101). The proposed project will
involve the construction of 85 new lots for single family mobile homes within the western portion of the project
site adjacent to the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home Park located within the eastern portion of the site. As
currently designed, the project will require two culverted road crossings of jurisdictional WOTUS (Stream 1, Stream
6, Wetland WA and Wetland WD/WJ) in order to access buildable portions of the western portion of the site.
Approximately 13.36 acres will be undisturbed forested natural areas.
Implementation of the project will entail clearing; site grading; installation of stormwater control features;
installation of municipal water and sanitary sewer systems; and other necessary infrastructure. Three stormwater
retention ponds for stormwater control and treatment will be constructed. Infrastructure needed to access
buildable land within the western portion of the site will require unavoidable direct impacts to 127 linear feet
(0.019 acre) of jurisdictional Stream 1 and Stream 6 and 0.095 acre of two jurisdictional wetlands (Wetlands WA
and WD/WJ). Construction will utilize typical clearing, grading and paving equipment.
Through implementation of an approved soil erosion and sedimentation plan, unauthorized direct and indirect
impacts to on -site and off -site jurisdictional WOTUS are not anticipated. As this is a residential infill development
adjacent to existing residential and commercial developments that are well supported by existing infrastructure,
no significant direct or indirect on -site or off -site impacts associated with site development are anticipated.
Additional information regarding this project is contained in the body of the e-PCN application. Refer to Figure 1
(Vicinity Map), Figure 2 (USGS Topographic Map), Figure 3 (Project Design), Figure 4 (Impact Area 1) and Figure
5 (Impact Area 2) appended to this report.
2.0 Purpose and Need
The purpose of the proposed project is to expand the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home Park to the
undeveloped western portion of the site in order to address the affordable housing crisis in the Charlotte area and
meet the demand for available, safe and affordable housing solutions. Additionally, the project will replace the
outdated and dilapidated existing mobile homes on site.
3.0 Existing Jurisdictional Waters / Site Conditions
The project site was delineated by Ms. Suzanne Knudsen and Mr. David Homans of S&ME on March 23 and April
1, 2021. A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD), SAW-2021-01076, was issued for the delineation on May
26, 2021. As outlined in the PJD, the following jurisdictional WOTUS were delineated on -site:
Stream S1 - 844 linear feet (If) perennial, non -wetland water tributary to Long Creek
Stream S2 - 475 If perennial, non -wetland water tributary to Long Creek

The eastern portion of the site is developed with the existing Countrywoods Mobile Home Park. However, due to
the age and condition of the mobile homes, they were recently vacated, demolished and removed and will be
replaced with new, safe models. The western portion of the site is undeveloped woodland. Sewer easements
parallel Stream S1 and Streams S6. The vicinity of the site is largely residential and commercial development.
Interstate 77 is west of the site.
4.0 Proposed Impacts to Jurisdictional WOTUS
The proposed project will require permanent impacts to portions of Stream S1, Stream S6, Wetland WA, and
Wetland WD/WJ associated with two road crossings to access the western portion of the project site. Project
impacts are shown on Figures 3, 4 and S. Refer to Table 4-1 below for a summary of jurisdictional WOTUS

5201 Victoria Avenue
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina III E
S&ME Project No. 212669
Total permanent stream impacts will be 127 If / 0.019 acre. The proposed culvert at the crossing of Stream S1 will
be a 72-inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) and the proposed culvert at the crossing of Stream S6 will
be a pair of 48-inch diameter high density polyethylene (HDPE) culverts. The culverts will be installed so as to not
impede flow or passage of aquatic fauna and meet the guidelines laid out in RGP 29 and WQC 4256 (See
Appendix II for culvert cross sections). Total permanent wetland impacts due to grading fill associated with these
road crossings will be 0.095 acre.
5.0 Avoidance and Minimization / Mitigation
The project has been redesigned several times to minimize impacts to jurisdictional WOTUS to the maximum
extent possible while still maximizing the number of affordable housing units generated. Streams are crossed at a
near perpendicular angle. During project design, culvert crossings were redesigned with headwalls and wingwalls
where possible to further minimize pipe lengths to the maximum extent practicable and thus limit impacts to
jurisdictional features.
During grading and construction, appropriate sediment and erosion control practices equaling those outlined in
the most recent version of the "North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual" will be
used to minimize impacts to streams and wetlands. Additionally, stormwater outlets have been designed to outfall
above the ordinary high-water mark.
The proposed project results in permanent impacts to 127 If/ 0.019 acre of jurisdictional stream, which falls below
the 0.020-acre threshold established by the Wilmington District of the USACE for requiring mitigation. As proper
avoidance and minimization steps have been taken for the project, and as the project is located in the Upper
Catawba River Basin (HUC 03050101), based on our past experience as well as the project meeting the general
and regional conditions of NWP No. 29, it is not anticipated the proposed project will require compensatory
mitigation.
6.0 Protected Species and Historical and Cultural Resources
To comply with applicable sections of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 USC 1531-1543), S&ME conducted
a federally protected species assessment of the project site On October 28, 2022. This review involved a
generating a North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database report to identify species, important
natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project site and
within a one -mile radius of the project site boundary. Additionally, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) online service was used to generate an up-to-date list of
federally protected threatened or endangered species which may be present in the project site. See Appendix III
for the Federally Protected Species Report dated December 6, 2022 that includes the NCNHP and USFWS IPaC
database reports.
The NCNHP review indicated that no known federally protected species were present within the project site or
within a one -mile radius of the project site. The NCNHP database report identified two open spaces managed by

the City of Charlotte as being within a one -mile radius of the project site. The USFWS IPaC review identified the
following federally protected species that may be in the project area:
Bald eagle — Haliaeetus leucocephalus (Bald and Gold Eagle Protection Act)
Tri-colored bat — Perimyotis subflavus (Proposed Endangered)
Monarch butterfly — Danaus plexippus (Candidate for listing)
Michaux's sumac — Rhus michauxii (Endangered)
Smooth coneflower — Echinacea laevigata (Threatened)
Schweinitz's sunflower - Helianthus schweinitzii (Endangered)
As stated in the Federally Protected Species Assessment (Appendix III), habitat exists within the project site
suitable for federally protected species, however, since the field assessment was conducted within the optimal
survey window of those species and no individual species were observed, the proposed project will have No Effect
on species currently listed by the USFWS that could potentially be present in the project site.
In order to determine consistency with the Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, a 0.5-mile radius
around the project site was reviewed for known historic properties using the NC State Historic Preservation Office
(NC SHPO) HPOWEB online mapping tool (See Appendix IV). Results indicated that no properties listed on the
National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) or determined eligible or on the study list for this registry were located
within this radius. Furthermore, the project site is located within a developed suburban residential and
commercial area with no currently known significant archeological resources; as such it is unlikely to present a
significant threat to archaeological resources.
7.0 Floodplains
According to the current Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) National Flood Hazard Layer,
regulated floodplains exist within the western portion of the project area; however, disturbance including site
development and grading activities, will not occur within these regulated floodplains (See Figure 3). As such the
proposed project is in compliance with FEMA flood zone regulations and restrictions.
8.0 Additional Regulatory Considerations
The proposed project has been designed to meet the general and regional conditions of NWP 29. The project is
located outside of areas with statewide regulated riparian buffers. Culvert crossings have been designed to
accommodate high and low flows without adversely affecting flow velocity while maintaining the natural width of
the channel. The culvert has been designed to accommodate aquatic fauna passage.
Stormwater control measures have been located outside of jurisdictional WOTUS areas and no impacts directly
associated with stormwater management facilities are proposed.
As stated previously, the proposed project satisfies the conditions of WQC 4256 and therefore does not require an
Individual Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Stream impacts are 127 If, which is below the 150 If threshold
specified by WQC 4256. Impacts to jurisdictional WOTUS are associated with the installation permanent fill /
structures and no stream restoration or relocation norjurisdictional pond dewatering are proposed. Though the

proposed project is a high -density project disturbing more than one acre of land, a Stormwater Management Plan
has been approved by the City of Charlotte's state approved stormwater program. Additionally, the project does
not involve impacts to special designated waters or waters protected by state buffer regulations.
According to the Post Construction Stormwater Ordinance (PCSO) Summary Table (Appendix V), 6.9 acres of
undisturbed natural areas are required by the PCSO for the project; however, implementation of the proposed
project will exceed that requirement and provide 13.36 acres of undisturbed natural areas as well as 6.75 acres of
undisturbed Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) buffers along on -site streams as regulated by
the Charlotte -Mecklenburg Stormwater Services.

S&ME Project No. 212669
Dear Mr. Bizzell,
S&ME, Inc. (S&ME) performed this Federally Protected Species Assessment as compliance with the Endangered
Species Act (ESA) in part of federal actions that may be required associated with Clean Water Act (CWA) Section
404/401 permitting services for proposed expansion of the Countrywoods Mobile Home Park ("project area"). The
project area is approximately 27.86 acres and is located at 5201 Victoria Avenue in Charlotte, Mecklenburg
County, North Carolina (Mecklenburg County tax parcel ID 03724101). This Federally Protected Species
Assessment was performed in accordance with Change Order 1, dated October 26, 2022, that was incorporated
into S&ME Proposal Number 212669.
The project area is depicted on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1), United States Geological Survey (USGS) Topographic
Map (Figure 2), a Site Map (Figure 3), and a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soil Survey (Figure
4), and site photographs in Attachment I. On behalf of Bass Nixon and Kennedy, Inc., the information contained
herein was prepared as part of an assessment of potential impacts to migratory birds of conservation concern
(BCC); federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species; and designated critical habitat.
METHODOLOGY
S&ME personnel generated a report of federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and/or candidate
species known to occur in Mecklenburg County using the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaQ online service and the North Carolina (NC) Natural Heritage
Program (NHP) species reviewer website. Results of this review are presented in Table 2. USFWS and NCNHP
database reports are included in Attachment II. Federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and
candidate species information and site habitat observations were reviewed to determine their likely occurrence
within the project area.
Supporting information was researched for the purpose of identifying soil types and vegetative communities. The
supporting information reviewed included aerial photography, topographic quadrangle maps, soil survey sheets,
land use information, and data from the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI). The NCNHP database was also

natural areas, or conservation/managed areas within the project area.
Site Description
Ms. Suzanne Knudsen, natural resource project manager, and Ms. Lauren Anderson, natural resources staff
scientist, conducted a site reconnaissance of the project area on October 28, 2022 to identify potential habitat for
federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species. If potential habitat was observed, an
assessment for the presence of federally listed species was conducted. The project area can be categorized into
the following habitat types: woodland, wetlands, easement, roadsides/fence line, and maintained lawn.
Woodland
Dominant vegetation within the woodland habitat include pawpaw (Asimina triloba), sweet gum (Liquidambar
styraciflua), white oak (Quercus alba), red maple (Acer rubrum), American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana), tulip
poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis), southern red oak (Quercus falcata), American
beech (Fagus grandifolia), white oak (Quercus alba), Christmas fern (Polystichum acrostichoides), northern
spicebush (Lindera benzoin), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), English ivy

MIGRATORY BIRDS OF CONSERVATION CONCERN
The following migratory BCC information is intended to identify project area land uses that may be related to
potential impacts to migratory BCC. The IPaC database report included a Resource List (Attachment 11) which
addresses migratory BCC and their probability of presence on the project area. The IPaC report identified nine
migratory BCC, as well as the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), that may occur within the project area.
Migratory BCC are listed below in Table 1.

The USGS quadrangle map, aerial photographs including Google Earth imagery, and generated IPaC and NCNHP
database reports (Attachment 11) were reviewed to determine the general land uses within a one -mile radius of
the project area. The surrounding land use within the one -mile search radius is highly urbanized and primarily
includes commercial facilities, woodland, and residential developments. A portion of Griffith Lakes is located
approximately 2,800 linear feet (If) east of the project area. No other large surface water body features that could
be conducive to migratory BCC concentrations, including the bald eagle, are located within the project area or
within a one -mile radius.

SPECIES EVALUATION
The IPaC report indicates that no designated critical habitat has been reported as occurring within the project
area.
NCNHP maintains a database of EOs for federal- and state -listed species, rare species, natural communities,
natural areas, or conservation/managed areas in the state of North Carolina. The NCNHP database report did not
identify any EOs located within the project area or within a one -mile radius of the project area for migratory BCC
or federally listed species outlined in Table 1 or Table 2, respectively. Managed areas documented within a one -
mile radius of the project area include two open spaces managed by the City of Charlotte. No migratory BCC or
federally listed species for Mecklenburg County were observed during the habitat assessment.
The IPaC report identified federally listed threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species that could
occur within the project area. These species are listed in the following table:

Bald Eagle
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NO EFFECT
This large raptor has characteristic adult plumage consisting of a white head and tail with a dark brown body.
Juvenile eagles are completely dark brown and do not fully develop the majestic white head and tail until the fifth
or sixth year. Adults average about three feet from head to tail, weigh approximately 10 to 12 pounds and have a
wingspan that can reach seven feet. Generally, female bald eagles are larger than the males.
A typical bald eagle nest is constructed of large sticks and is lined with soft materials such as pine needles and
grasses. The nests are very large, measuring up to six feet across and weighing hundreds of pounds. Nesting and
feeding sites are generally in the vicinity of large bodies of open water (coastlines, rivers, large lakes). Bald eagle
nesting territories range from 2.5 square miles up to 15 square miles.
A portion of Griffith Lakes is located approximately 2,800 If feet east of the project area. No other large bodies of
water suitable for bald eagle feeding sites are within a one -mile radius of the project area. No large bodies of
water are located within the project area. The NCNHP database has reported no bald eagle EOs within the project
area or within a one -mile radius of the project area. No bald eagles or bald eagle nests were observed within the
project area during the habitat assessment. Accordingly, future development of the project is expected to have no
effect on the bald eagle.

S&ME Project No. 212669
Tricolored Bat
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NOT APPLICABLE TO PROPOSED SPECIES
The tricolored bat has an average body length of 3 to 3.5 inches, with a wingspan of 9 inches. The tricolored bat is
distinguished by its unique tricolored fur that appears dark at the base, lighter in the middle, and dark at the tip.
Tricolored bats often appear yellowish, varying from pale yellow to nearly orange, but may also appear silvery -
gray, chocolate brown, or black. Newly flying young are much darker and grayer than adults.
During the spring, summer, and fall - collectively referred to as the non -hibernating seasons - tricolored bats
primarily roost among live and dead leaf clusters of live or recently dead deciduous hardwood trees. In the
southern and northern portions of the range, tricolored bats will also roost in Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides)
and old man's beard lichen (Usnea trichodea), respectively. In addition, tricolored bats have been observed
roosting during summer among pine needles, eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana), within artificial roosts like
barns, beneath porch roofs, bridges, concrete bunkers, and rarely within caves. Female tricolored bats form
maternity colonies and switch roost trees regularly. Males roost singly.
During the winter, tricolored bats hibernate - which means that they reduce their metabolic rates, body
temperatures and heart rate - in caves and mines; although, in the southern United States, where caves are sparse,
tricolored bats often hibernate in road -associated culverts, as well as sometimes in tree cavities and abandoned
water wells. Tricolored bats exhibit high site fidelity with many individuals returning year after year to the same
hibernaculum.
Woodland present within the project area contained suitable habitat for the tricolored bat due to the presence of
mature deciduous hardwood trees capable of producing loose, peeling bark and leaf clusters.
The NCNHP database query identified no known hibernation sites and/or roost trees. Additional consultation is
not necessary because the tricolored bat is not a federally protected species at this time. As a result, a biological
determination is not applicable to this species. However, if the tricolored bat becomes listed as an endangered
species further consultation may be required as the removal of trees may affect this species.
Monarch Butterfly
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NOT APPLICABLE TO CANDIDATE SPECIES
The monarch butterfly is a stunning bright orange insect with scattered white dots and black vein -like markings.
The monarch butterfly's scientific name, Danaus plexippus, translated in Greek means "sleepy transformation" in
reference to the species hibernation and metamorphosis. The monarch butterfly is also one of the few insect
species that migrate. Monarch butterflies fly up to 2,500 miles from their breeding grounds in the United States
and Canada to their overwintering spots in central Mexico.
Monarch butterfly habitat includes fields, roadsides, and other open areas. Monarch butterflies require flowering
plants within these habitats to feed on their nectar. Monarch butterflies breed in areas with milkweed, the host
plant for their larva.

Federally Protected Species Assessment
III Countrywoods Mobile Home Park
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
S&ME Project No. 212669
As a candidate species, there is no federal protection afforded for the monarch butterfly. However, the USFWS
appreciates its inclusion into assessments. Suitable habitat exists in the wetland, easement, and roadside and
fence line. No individuals of monarch butterfly or milkweed were observed during the habitat assessment.
A biological determination for the monarch butterfly is not applicable to the proposed project as the monarch
butterfly is a candidate species.
Michaux's Sumac
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NO EFFECT
Michaux's sumac is a rhizomatous, densely hairy shrub with erect stems approximately one to three feet in height.
The compound leaves are evenly serrated, oblong to lanceolate, acuminate leaflets. Flowers are small, borne in a
terminal, erect, dense cluster and are greenish yellow to white in color. Michaux's sumac flowers between June
and July and the fruit, a red drupe, is produced through the months of August to October.
Michaux's sumac grows in sandy or rocky open woods in association with basic soils, surviving best in areas where
some form of disturbance has provided an open area. In North Carolina, observed populations have been
identified on roadsides or on the edges of artificially maintained clearings such as utility easements. This species
does not tolerate shade or wet soils.
The habitat assessment was conducted within the optimal survey window for this species (May through October).
Suitable habitat was observed along the roadside and fence line. No individuals of Michaux's sumac were
observed within the project area during the assessment. Accordingly, future development of the project is
expected to have no effect on Michaux's sumac.
Schweinitz's Sunflower
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NO EFFECT
Schweinitz's sunflower is a federally endangered wildflower species native to the piedmont regions of North and
South Carolina. Its flowers are comprised of relatively small yellow disk flowers and yellow ray flowers. Schweinitz's
sunflower has purple stems and slightly rough leaves.
Schweinitz's sunflower provides nectar to pollinators such as insects, small mammals, and songbirds. It also serves
as a larval host plant for the silvery checkerspot butterfly (Chlosyne nycteis), meaning it provides the nutrients
silvery checkerspot caterpillars need to grow and develop.
This species prefers habitat with dry, well -drained soils and full sunlight. This species relies on regular disturbance,
such as fire or grazing wildlife, to maintain its preferred habitat. Schweinitz's sunflower is found along roadsides,
forest openings, and utility easements.
The habitat assessment was conducted within the optimal survey window for this species (late August through
October). Suitable habitat was observed along the roadside and fence line. No individuals of Schweinitz's
sunflower were observed within the project area during the habitat assessment. Accordingly, future development
of the project is expected to have no effect on Schweinitz's sunflower.

Smooth Coneflower
BIOLOGICAL DETERMINATION: NO EFFECT
Federally Protected Species Assessment
Countrywoods Mobile Home Park
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
S&ME Project No. 212669
Smooth coneflower is a perennial herb in the Aster family (Asteraceae) that grows up to 3.3 feet tall from a vertical
root stock. The large leaves may reach eight inches in length and three inches in width and taper into long
leafstalks toward the base. They are smooth to slightly rough in texture.
Smooth coneflower is a composite, a cluster of flowers grouped together to form a single flower-like
structure. Smooth coneflower has narrow, drooping, light pink to purplish petals that emerge rolled and appear
string -like. The petals look droopy shortly after the flowers open.
The protruding spike -like flowers that make-up the flower head or seed head give the genus Echinacea its name,
from the Greek word echinos, which means spiny or prickly. The smooth coneflower can be distinguished from its
most similar relative, the purple coneflower, by its leaves, which in the smooth coneflower are elliptical, and never
heart -shaped, like those of the purple coneflower. Also, in purple coneflower, the ray flowers are more perky, not
droopy like smooth coneflower.
Smooth coneflower is typically found in open woods, glades, cedar barrens, roadsides, clear -cuts, dry limestone
bluffs, and powerline easements, usually on basic magnesium and calcium rich soils associated with amphibolite,
dolomite or limestone (in Virginia), gabbro (in North Carolina and Virginia), diabase (in North Carolina and South
Carolina), and marble (in South Carolina and Georgia). Smooth coneflower occurs in plant communities that have
been described as very dry hardpan forests, diabase glades, or dolomite woodlands. Optimal sites are
characterized by abundant sunlight and little competition in the herbaceous layer.
The habitat assessment was conducted within the optimal survey window for this species (late May through
October). Suitable habitat was observed along the roadside and fence line. No individuals of smooth coneflower
were observed within the project area during the assessment. No species of the genus Echinacea were observed
within the project area during the habitat assessment. Accordingly, future development of the project is expected
to have no effect on smooth coneflower.
CONCLUSIONS
Implementation of the proposed project should have No Effect on bald eagle, Michaux's sumac, Schweinitz's
sunflower, and smooth coneflower. A biological determination is not required for the tricolored bat or the
monarch butterfly due to their current proposed endangered and candidate listings, respectively. Since it is
anticipated the proposed project will have No Effect on federally listed species, consultation with the USFWS is not
warranted.

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 likelihood 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\
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
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis
of project level impacts.
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. # 4'4%L %
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. V

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. CN *
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 bar.
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)

10/25/22, 4:36 PM
IPaC: Explore Location resources
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 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 (BCC). and other
species that may warrant special attention in your project location.
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. NWO
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:

"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).
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.

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 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

Coastal Barrier Resources System
Projects within the John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) may be subject
to the restrictions on federal expenditures and financial assistance and the consultation
requirements of the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (CBRA) (16 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. \ Q z
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
on 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

.oe
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.

IPaC: Explore Location resources
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.

Subject: List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project
location or may be affected by your proposed project
To Whom It May Concern:
The enclosed species list identifies threatened, endangered, proposed and candidate species, as
well as proposed and designated critical habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your
proposed project and/or may be affected by your proposed project. The enclosed 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.).
Please note that new species information can change your official species list. 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. The Service recommends you visit the ECOS-IPaC website at
regular intervals during project planning and implementation to ensure your species list is
accurate or obtain an updated species 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
species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or
designated critical habitat.
A biological assessment (BA) or biological evaluation (BE) should be completed for your
project. A BA is required for major construction activities (or other undertakings having similar
physical impacts) considered to be 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))
(NEPA). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a BE be
prepared to determine effects of the action and whether those effects may affect listed species
and/or designated critical habitat. E?ects of the action are all consequences to listed species or
critical habitat that are caused by the proposed action, including the consequences of other

10/25/2022
activities that are caused by the proposed action. A consequence is caused by the proposed action
if it is reasonably certain to occur and would not occur "but for" the proposed action..
Recommended contents of a BA/BE are described at 50 CFR 402.12. More information and
resources about project review and preparing a BA/BE can be found at the following web link:
https://www.fws. gov/office/asheville-ecological-services/asheville-field-office-online-review-
process-overview.
If a Federal agency determines 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. The Service is not required to concur with "no effect" determinations from Federal action
agencies. If consultation is required, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed
species, proposed critical habitat, and at -risk species be addressed within the consultation. More
information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of
permit or licensed applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook"
at the following web link: https://www.fws.gov/media/endangered-species-consultation-
handbook.
Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species
under the Act, 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 Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12
and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). More information about MBTA and BGEPA can be found at the
following web link: https://www.fws.gov/program/migratory-birds.
We appreciate your consideration of Federally listed species. The Service encourages Federal
agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species in their project planning
to further the purposes of the Act. Please contact our staff at 828-258-3939, if you have any
questions. In any future correspondence concerning this project, please reference the
Consultation Code which can be found in the header of this letter.

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

10/25/2022
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.

Migratory Birds FAQ
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 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.

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.

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).

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.

Wetlands
Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats may be subject to regulation under Section
404 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.
Please note that the NWI data being shown may be out of date. We are currently working to
update our NWI data set. We recommend you verify these results with a site visit to determine
the actual extent of wetlands on site.

Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program
NCNHDE-19756
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.
httl2s //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.butlerLncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program
