Atlas Environmental completed a stream and wetland delineation on March 15, 2023. A delineation concurrence was originally submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and issued on May 09, 2023. There is one perennial stream, two intermittent streams, and three wetlands within the review area. The project purpose is for the construction of a residential development consisting of up to 72 individual units that will be developed for townhomes as well as the installation of a sanitary sewer line. The development will require three permanent and one temporary unavoidable impacts to Waters of the United States. Impact W1 consists of 0.141 acre of fill to WL 2000. Impact W1 is necessary for grading side slopes, the installation of an access road, and grading for the townhome lots and will permitted under an NWP 29. Impact W2 is for the permanent fill of Wetland 2100 (0.035 acres). This impact is for the grading of townhome lots and will be permitted under an NWP 29. Part of WL 2000 occurs with the FEMA floodplain where Impact W3 will permanently impact 0.006 acres. This is for the construction of the sewer line (NWP 18). Impact W4 is also an impact to the Southern section of WL 2000 and is necessary for the installation of a sanitary sewer line (NWP 18). Impact W4 will temporarily impact 0.007 acres WL 2000. In total, there are approximately 0.182 acres of permanent wetland impacts proposed. No stream mitigation will be required for this project as no streams are proposed to be impacted. However, wetland impacts will be required since they exceed 0.10 acre. Because Impact W2 is a temporary impact to an herbaceous wetland, no mitigation will be required for this impact. A ratio of 1:1 is appropriate for the wetland impacts. The quality of the wetlands have been degraded due to the agricultural and pastoral use of the site. The wetlands are located within cow pasture areas. The site has been designed and engineered to avoid and minimize impacts to the greatest extent possible. The design incorporates four common open spaces to reduce further impact. None of the streams located on site are proposed to be impacted, including Dutchman Creek. A 100-year FEMA floodplain is located within the Western region and the Southern region of the review area. A sanitary sewer is proposed to be installed within this floodplain as well as side slopes. The impacts from the sanitary sewer are temporary. The project engineers are working with the proper authorities regarding this floodplain. Enclosed are the necessary permit 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, NC 28211 Re: Construct residential development, 409 Farmington Road, Mocksville, Davie County, ER 23-0793 Dear Ms. Tallent: Thank you for your letter of March 17, 2023, regarding the above -referenced undertaking. We have reviewed the submittal and offer the following comments. We have conducted a review of the project and are aware of no historic resources which would be affected by the project. Therefore, we have no comment on the project as proposed. 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. reviewgncdcr. gov. In all future communication concerning this project, please cite the above referenced tracking number. Sincerely, Ramona Bartos, Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer Location: 109 East Jones Street Raleigh NC 27601 Mailing Address: 4617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh NC 27699-4617 Telephone/Fax: (919) 814-6570/814-6898 David Rabon From: Hamstead, Byron A <byron_hamstead@fws.gov> Sent: Saturday, April 15, 2023 10:27 AM To: David Rabon Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Farmington Road T&E Report of Findings and Review Request (Davie County) Hey David, We offer the following comments/concurrence to inform prudent effect determinations to federally listed species from the appropriate action agency: Based on the information provided, the proposed action occurs within the consultation area for the federally endangered Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus scwheinitzii), and Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii). These species are known to occur in a variety of habitats including maintained utility and road rights of way, forest edges, old pastures, and woodland openings. These species may occupy habitats where the disturbance regime reduces competition from other species. They do not typically occur in areas with dense understory vegetation, or in areas that experience frequent mowing or disturbance during consecutive reproductive seasons. Your correspondence indicates that suitable habitats for these species are not present present within the proposed action area (50CFR 402.02). Our concurrence with "no effect" determinations from action agencies is not required. Based on the information provided, suitable forage and/or roosting habitat for the proposed endangered tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus), may occur within the proposed action area. To avoid impacts to this species, we encourage project proponents to accomplish any necessary tree clearing outside of the "active season" for this animal. The active season for tricolored bat occurs during the warmer time of year from April 1 - October 15. Although this species is not currently afforded legal protection under the Endangered Species Act (Act), this impact minimization measure would support our concurrence with a "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" determination from the appropriate action agency should this species become listed in the future. If the proposed action would not affect suitable habitat for this animal, we would not object to a "no effect" determination from the appropriate action agency. The information provided indicates that suitable habitat is not present within the proposed action area for any other federally listed species. Therefore, we require no further information and consider consultation to be complete at this time. Please be aware that 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. Please contact me if you have any questions.

We have reviewed the information provided by you concerning the aquatic resources, and by copy of this e-mail, are confirming that the aquatic resources delineation has been verified by the Corps to be a sufficiently accurate and reliable representation of the location and extent of aquatic resources within the identified review area. The location and extent of these aquatic resources are shown in callout areas on the attached delineation map, labeled Photograph and Data Form Location Map dated 3/15/2023. Regulatory Guidance Letter (RGL) 16-01 https://usace.contentdm.ocic.org/utils/getfile/collection/P16021coll9/id/1256 provides guidance for Jurisdictional Determinations (JD) and states "The Corps generally does not issue a JD of any type where no JD has been requested." At this time, we are only verifying the delineation. This delineation may be relied upon for use in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. "This verification does not address nor include any consideration for geographic jurisdiction on aquatic resources and shall not be interpreted as such. This delineation verification is not an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) and is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (33 CFR Part 331)."
