Atlas Environmental completed a stream and wetland delineation on May 20, 2022, and July 13, 2022. A preliminary jurisdictional determination was submitted for the Myers project, and the JD was issued on March 09, 2023. The Myers project is Phase 2 for the Villas at Sherrills Ford subdivision. There is one intermittent stream within the review area. The project purpose is for the construction of 17 residential units and associated infrastructure. The development is a phased project. The Connor project is phase 1 for the subdivision. The impacts are cumulative and will require a total of 198 LF, 0.011 acre of stream impacts. The Myers project will require two permanent unavoidable impacts to Waters of the United States. Impact S1 consists of 12 linear feet (0.001 acre) at the upper intermittent section of CH 100. Impact S2 consists of 60 linear feet(0.003 acre) of the upper intermittent section of CH 100 for a total of 72 linear feet(0.004 acre)of stream impacts. No mitigation will be required for this project as there are no wetland impacts and stream impacts are less than 0.02 acre. The site has been designed and engineered to avoid and minimize impacts to the greatest extent possible. More than 80% of the streams on site are being avoided for phase 1 and phase 2 of the subdivision. Impact S1 (12 LF, 0.001 acre) is necessary to fill for grading on the upper intermittent section of CH 100. Impact S2 (60 LF, 0.003 acre) is a necessary permanent riprap impact to prevent erosion to CH 100 from the three stormwater outlets that will be flowing into CH 100. Enclosed are the necessary permit application documents and additional information. Thank you for your attention to the enclosed request. Please contact me if you need any additional information.

Sharon Amity Road,#411 Charlotte,North Carolina 28211 Subject: Myers Residential Development in Terrell, Catawba County,North Carolina. Dear Ms. Tallent: On May 31,2022,we received(via email)your information requesting our review of the subject project. We received an updated review request on June 15,2022. We have reviewed the information that you presented for this request and the following comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act(42 U.S.C.§ 4321 et seq.)and section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended(16 U.S.C. 1531 - 1543) (Act). Proiect Description According to the information provided,BBC Villas,LLC proposes to construct a residential development and associated infrastructure on approximately 5.6 acres at 9118 Sherrills Ford Road in Terrell, Catawba County,North Carolina. Federally Listed Species An assessment of suitable habitat and/or presence/absence species surveys for five species were conducted by environmental specialist with Atlas Environmental,Inc. on May 20, 2022. The findings were compiled and included in the review requests submitted to our office on May 31 and June 16,2022. The following species and their associated habitats were evaluated. Species Status' Bog turtle Glyptemys muhlenbergii T(S/A),ARS Dwarf-flowered heartleaf Hexastylis naniflora T Monarch Danaus plexippus CAN Northern long-eared bat Myotis septentrionalis T,PE Schweinitz's sunflower Helianthus schweinitzii E 'E=endangered,PE=proposed endangered, T=threatened, T(S/A)_ threatened due to similarity of appearance, and CAN=candidate species. The review request states that no suitable habitat is present for dwarf-flowered heartleaf or Schweinitz's sunflower. Based on the information provided,we agree with the assessment that no suitable habitat is present for these species. As such, section 7 consultation is not required for these species. Bog turtle is federally listed as threatened(due to similarity of appearance) and is not subject to section 7 consultation,therefore, an effects determination is not necessary. However, it is a species of concern for our office, and we appreciate the project proponent's consideration of bog turtle when evaluating the action area for impacts to federally listed species and their habitats. If bog turtle or suitable habitat is identified on future projects within the proposed action area or proposed activities will impact hydrology of suitable habitat(i.e. changing drainage patterns to/from wetlands),we recommend coordinating the project with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service(Service) and the NC Wildlife Resources Commission. Monarch butterfly is a candidate species, and we appreciate the project proponent's consideration of monarch butterfly when evaluating the action area for impacts to federally listed species and their habitats. The species is not subject to section 7 consultation, and a determination of effects is not necessary. General recommendations for pollinators can be provided and would be protective of monarch butterfly should the project proponent like to implement them in the future. Suitable summer roosting habitat for northern long-eared bat(NLEB)may present at the site. The 4(d) rule exempts incidental take of NLEB associated with activities that occur greater than 0.25 mile from a known hibernation site, and greater than 150 feet from a known, occupied maternity roost during the pup season(June 1 —July 31). The proposed project occurs at a location where any incidental take that may result from associated activities is exempt under the 4(d)rule.Although not required,we encourage the project proponent to avoid any associated tree clearing activities during the NLEB active season from April 1 —October 15. On March 23, 2022,the Service published a proposal to reclassify NLEB as endangered under the Act. The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has ordered the Service to complete a new final listing determination for the NLEB by November 2022 (Case 1:15-cv-00477,March 1,2021). The bat, currently listed as threatened, faces extinction due to the range-wide impacts of white-nose syndrome (WNS), a deadly fungal disease affecting cave-dwelling bats across the continent. The proposed reclassification, if finalized,would remove the current 4(d)rule for the NLEB, as these rules may be applied only to threatened species. Depending on the type of effects a project has on NLEB,the change in the species' status may trigger the need to re-initiate consultation for any actions that are not completed and for which the Federal action agency retains discretion once the new listing determination becomes effective(anticipated to occur by December 30, 2022). If your project may result in incidental take of NLEB after the new listing goes into effect this will need to be addressed in an updated consultation that includes an Incidental Take Statement. If your project may require re-initiation of consultation,please contact our office for additional guidance. We believe the requirements under section 7 of the Act are fulfilled for the federally listed species discussed above. However, obligations under section 7 of the Act must be reconsidered if (1)new information reveals impacts of the identified action may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered, (2)the identified action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review,or(3)a new species is listed or critical habitat is determined that may be affected by the identified action. Fish and Wildlife Resource Recommendations We offer the following general recommendations for the benefit of fish and wildlife resources: • Erosion and Sedimentation Control. Construction activities near aquatic resources, streams, and wetlands have the potential to cause bank destabilization,water pollution, and water quality degradation if measures to control site runoff are not properly installed and maintained. In order to effectively reduce erosion and sedimentation impacts,best management practices specific to the extent and type of construction should be designed and installed prior to land-disturbing 2 activities and should be maintained throughout construction. Natural fiber matting(coir) should be used for erosion control as synthetic netting can trap animals and persists in the environment beyond its intended purpose. Land disturbance should be limited to what can be stabilized quickly,preferably by the end of the workday. Once construction is complete, disturbed areas should be revegetated with native riparian grass and tree species as soon as possible. For maximum benefits to water quality and bank stabilization,riparian areas should be forested; however,if the areas are maintained in grass,they should not be mowed. The Service can provide information on potential sources of plant material upon request. A complete design manual that is consistent with the requirements of the North Carolina Sedimentation and Pollution Control Act and Administrative Rules, can be found at the following website: https:lldeq.nc.govlabout/divisions/energy-mineral-land-resources. • Impervious Surfaces/Stormwater/Low Impact Development(LID). Increased development contributes to the increased quantity and decreased quality of stormwater entering project area waterways. Additionally, increased development outside the floodplain increases stormwater flows already caused by the lack of or loss of riparian buffers and floodplain development. Recent studies' have shown that areas of 10 percent to 20 percent impervious surface (such as roofs,roads,and parking lots)double the amount of stormwater runoff compared to natural cover and decrease deep infiltration(groundwater recharge)by 16 percent. At 35—50 percent impervious surface,runoff triples, and deep infiltration is decreased by 40 percent. Above 75 percent impervious surface,runoff is 5.5 times higher than natural cover, and deep infiltration is decreased by 80 percent. Additionally,the adequate treatment of stormwater at project sites is essential for the protection of water quality and aquatic habitat. Impervious surfaces also collect pathogens,metals, sediment, and chemical pollutants and quickly transmit them(via stormwater runoff)to receiving waters. According to the Environmental Protection Agency,this nonpoint-source pollution is one of the major threats to water quality in the United States,posing one of the greatest threats to aquatic life, and is also linked to chronic and acute illnesses in human populations from exposure through drinking water and contact recreational. Increased stormwater runoff also directly damages aquatic and riparian habitat, causing streambank and stream channel scouring. Additionally, impervious surfaces reduce groundwater recharge,resulting in even lower than expected stream flows during drought periods,which can induce potentially catastrophic effects for fish,mussels, and other aquatic life. To avoid any additional impacts to habitat quality within the watershed,we recommend that all new developments,regardless of the percentage of impervious surface area created, implement stormwater retention and treatment measures designed to replicate and maintain the hydrograph at the preconstruction condition. We recommend the use of low impact development techniques,2 such as reduced road widths, grassed swales in place of curb and gutter,rain gardens, and wetland retention areas, for retaining and treating stormwater runoff rather than the more traditional measures, such as large retention ponds, etc. These designs often cost less to install and significantly reduce environmental impacts from development.

Stream Corridor Restoration: Principles,Processes,and Practices. GPO Item No.0120-A; SuDocs No.A 57.6/2:EN 3/PT.653. ISBN-0-934213-59-3. ZWe recommend visiting the Environmental Protection Agency's Web site(http://www.epa.gov/polluted-runoff nonpoint-source pollution/urban-runoff-low-impact-development)for additional information and fact sheets regarding the implementation of low-impact-development techniques. 3 Where detention ponds are used, stormwater outlets should drain through a vegetated area prior to reaching any natural stream or wetland area. Detention structures should be designed to allow for the slow discharge of stormwater, attenuating the potential adverse effects of stormwater surges; thermal spikes; and sediment,nutrient, and chemical discharges. Also,because the purpose of stormwater control measures is to protect streams and wetlands,no stormwater control measures or best management practices should be installed within any stream(perennial or intermittent) or wetland. We also recommend that consideration be given to the use of pervious materials (i.e.,pervious concrete, interlocking/open paving blocks, etc.) for the construction of roads, driveways, sidewalks, etc. Pervious surfaces minimize changes to the hydrology of the watershed and can be used to facilitate groundwater recharge. Pervious materials are also less likely to absorb and store heat and allow the cooler soil below to cool the pavement. Additionally,pervious concrete requires less maintenance and is less susceptible to freeze/thaw cracking due to large voids within the concrete. Use of any of the proposed stormwater collection devices described above will dramatically decrease the quantity and increase the quality of stormwater runoff.

We have reviewed the information and offer the following comments. While the subject location is shown within the National Register-listed Terrell Historic District(CT0378), a close examination of the information provided on our GIS would indicate that the Terrell NRHD has been determined no longer eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). This is due to the intensive development that has occurred within the district in the last several years. The only property that is still considered historic is the T. F. Connor House,which is individually eligible for listing in the NRHP and on which the Historic Preservation Foundation of North Carolina(PNC)holds preservation covenants. Given the ineligibility of the Terrell Historic District and the information provided about the buildings located on the subject property,we have determined that the proposed Myers residential subdivision will not affect any historic properties. The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment, contact Renee Gledhill-Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919-814-6579 or environmental.review(cr�,ncdcr.gov.

The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an approved JD(AJD) for that review area based on an informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate. 2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit,or a Nationwide General Permit (NWT) or other general permit verification requiring "pre- construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non-reporting NWT or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD,which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2)the applicant has the option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3)the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the NWT or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary;(5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subjectpermit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit)or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative orjudicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and(7)whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit(and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area,the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be"waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be"navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.
