Mr. Pottern,
We have a record of a colonial waterbird nesting site, which is considered important animal assemblages in North
Carolina, near Dam 24. We recommend surveys for active colonial nesting birds (i.e., rookeries) in and adjacent to the
project. If active rookeries are located, any construction activities should not occur within 0.5-mile of each rookery from
February 15-July 31.
In general, we prefer Alternative A, not only for Dam 24, but all the dams.
Please let me know if you have questions. Thank you,
Olivia
