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 YIELD North Master Plan ("Goodwin") site (the Site) is approximately 83.47 acres located east of the intersection of Copperhead Road and Woods Creek Road in Holly Springs, North
Carolina within Wake County. The Site is undeveloped and consists of mostly mixed hardwood and pine forested areas, a utility easement right-of-way (ROW) bisecting the central portion
of the Site from east to west, a single-family residence (to be removed), and Woods Creek Road and its associated ROW. Evidence of previous logging activities are evident in the
southern portion of the Site. The Site is bound by Woods Creek Road and US Highway 1 (US 1) to the north; by forested areas and Baucom Elementary School to the east; and by
forested areas, private residences, and Copperhead Road to the south and west.
The proposed commercial development will consist of the construction of five buildings with associated SCM features, parking lots, utility improvements (i.e. public water supply and
sanitary sewer alignment), and amenity open space.
A delineation of the project area was completed by Sage Ecological Services (Sage) in August 2021. In addition, Timmons Group re -delineated the boundaries of open water features and
adjacent wetlands and the relatively permanent water (RPW) feature located within the central portion of the Site on June 14, 2023. No Jurisdictional Determination has been obtained for
the Site to date. The Site is located in the Cape Fear Basin and is therefore not located in an area subject to state riparian buffer rules.
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:
0.883
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:

3j. Comments:
Stream Impacts 7A and 8A are permanent and due to road fill in order to construct roadways throughout the Site. In addition to the permanent impacts,
there will be permanent — no loss impacts for Impacts 7B and 8B. This is due to the installation of dissipator pads at the downstream sections of those
impacts. The rip rap dissipation pad will be keyed into the streambed and will follow the existing stream channel. The culvert alignment options were
limited at Impacts 8B, 8C, and 8D due to the sinuosity of the stream and placement of the proposed roadway. The proposed culvert alignment was
chosen based on guidance from a stormwater engineer. The rip rap dissipation pad will be installed at the culvert outlet and within the stream starting at
the proposed wingwall and continuing around the bend in the stream. This will provide diffuse flow into the existing stream channel that will maintain
hydrology and will provide required stabilization to prevent erosion and bank instability issues.
Stream Impacts 7C, 8C, and 8B are all temporary and due to the 10' construction buffer needed so that construction can occur in the areas where
permanent impacts will occur. Temporary stream impacts will be restored to pre -construction contours and elevations after construction is complete.
All impacts have been designed to avoid and minimize to the maximum extent practicable.

4h. Comments:
Open Water Impacts 3, 4, and 6 are all permanent and due to site fill for the construction of buildings, associated parking lots, and roadways onsite. The
impacts are occurring to two pond features and one relatively permanent water feature that connects Pond 1 to Wetland WD.
All impacts have been designed to avoid and minimize to the maximum extent practicable.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Impacts to jurisdictional features have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable by incorporating resourceful site planning,
including utilization of the wetland/stream delineation to adjust the layout of the Site design to avoid and minimize impacts. The remaining impacts
proposed are necessary in order for the project's goals to be realized.
The project has gone through multiple design changes to ensure that the minimum amount of wetlands and streams are impacted while still meeting the
necessary goals of the project. For example, the headwall at Impact 1A was shifted closer to Building E so that less of the wetland would be impacted.
The headwall was designed as close as possible to Building E so that two-way traffic could get behind the building since this area is proposed for truck
loading. Impacts to Wetlands WA-02 and WF and Stream SF have been avoided. The gas easement that is located in the southcentral portion of the Site
has caused some design constraints. No buildings could be placed in the easement due to safety concerns, therefore, the buildings had to be designed
in certain orientations in the southern portion of the Site.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized during all phases of construction and installation as described in accordance with the
requirements of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources: Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual (May 2013) and
local codes. All work will take place during dry conditions and can be facilitated from high, non -jurisdictional, stable ground. The contractor shall install
silt fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, division ditches, temporary coffer dams, tree protection, and clearing only as necessary to install devices. All
erosion and sediment control measures will be checked for stability and operation following every runoff producing rainfall, but in no case less than once
every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all measures designed. An erosion control inspections report is required and will
be kept by the owner's representative.
Temporary seeding and permanent seeding plans are included to restore impacted areas. The project will meet all relative requirements of Best
Management Practices and Engineered Stormwater Control Structures as outlined through State and Local Stormwater Rules. Measures will be taken to
prevent oil, tar, trash, debris, and other pollutants from entering adjacent jurisdictional features. Any excess excavated materials not utilized as back fill
will be placed and contained within upland areas and permanently stabilized to prevent erosion into adjacent jurisdictional features. Therefore,
stockpiling of excavated material within jurisdictional waters of the U.S. will be strictly prohibited as part of the construction of this project. All project
construction activities initiated within jurisdictional waters of the U.S. will be carried to completion in an expeditious manner to minimize the period of
disturbance within jurisdictional waters.

Yes No
5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat?
A search of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation
(IPaC) tool lists three (3) federally threatened or endangered species red -cockaded woodpecker, Cape Fear shiner, and Michaux's sumac, one (1)
proposed endangered species, tricolored bat, and one (1) candidate species monarch butterfly with the potential to occur within the Site. No critical
habitat is listed as occurring within the Site limits or a 1-mile radius. According to the NC Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) report, there are no known
occurrences of protected species or natural/managed areas within the project area or a 1-mile radius. No occurrences of protected species or suitable
habitat for listed species were noted on Site.
Based on email consultation received from Kathy Matthews of the USFWS on March 1, 2023, there are no concerns for listed species for the Site based
on lack of suitable habitat. She noted additional consultation may be required following listing of the tricolored bat (Appendix E).
Apogee, Inc. (Apogee) conducted a presence/absence mist -netting survey for the tricolored bat for the proposed project on the nights of August 18
through 21, 2023. No state or federally threatened or endangered species were captured during survey efforts. The report from Apogee is included in
Appendix E. These results suggest the project will not cause direct or indirect adverse effects to tricolored bats, or any other threatened or endangered
bat species. Further, the site does not contain any apparent rock outcroppings, caves, or mine portals.
The Site is undeveloped and consists of mostly mixed hardwood and pine forested areas, a transmission line right-of-way (ROW) bisecting the northern
portion of the Site from east to west, a single-family residence (to be removed), and Woods Creek Road and its associated ROW. The mixed hardwood
and pine forested areas are dominated by hardwoods and lack large stands of pines that would provide suitable habitat for RCW. Therefore, suitable
nesting and foraging areas are not present within the Site. Additionally, occurrences of RCW and cavity trees were not observed within the project area
or noted in the NCNHP database report. Per the USFWS Eastern North Carolina Field Office, RCW populations are no longer present within Wake
County. Therefore, relying on the SLOPES guidelines and guidance from the USFWS, due to the known extirpation of RCW within Wake County,
location of the project outside of the RCW SLOPES consultation area, and the low percentage of dominant pine trees on the Site, the proposed project
will have no effect on the red -cockaded woodpecker.
The Cape Fear shiner is most often found in rocky pools and runs adjacent to riffles in wide, shallow segments of rivers with gravel, cobble and/or
boulder substrates with forested banks. Streams within the southern portion of the site do not contain potentially suitable habitat for the Cape Fear shiner
due to their lack of gravel and cobble substrate. Streams within the northern portion of the site were observed with areas of bedrock, cobble, and gravel
substrate during site investigations. These streams contain potential suitable habitat, but according to USFWS, NCDOT has contracted several aquatic
surveys over the years in White Oak Creek and Big Branch close to the Site. There were no sensitive aquatic species recorded, very few mussels, and
no listed species. The NCNHP report did not identify any documented species occurrences within the site or a 1-mile radius. Based on the landscape
position of the Site, which is very high up in the watershed, above Harris Lake, and the lack of listed species present in larger reaches downstream, it is
our opinion that the proposed project will have no effect on the Cape Fear shiner.
Michaux's sumac grows in sandy or rocky, open, upland woods on acidic or circumneutral, well -drained sands or sandy loam soils with low cation
exchange capacities. The species is also found on sandy or submesic loamy swales and depressions in the fall line Sandhills region as well as in
openings along the rim of Carolina bays; maintained railroad, roadside, power line, and utility rights -of -way; areas where forest canopies have been
opened up by blowdowns and/or storm damage; small wildlife food plots; abandoned building sites; under sparse to moderately dense pine or
pine/hardwood canopies; and in and along edges of other artificially maintained clearings undergoing natural succession. All rights -of -way and forest
edges were determined to not contain suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac due to the shaded areas along forest edges and the dense herbaceous
layers within the ROWs. Japanese stiltgrass and soft rush are growing densely in the herbaceous layers of the maintained utility corridor in the northern
portion of the Site and therefore the area does not contain suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac. Further, no occurrences of the species were
documented in the NCNHP database report within the Site or a 1-mile radius. Therefore, it is the opinion of Timmons Group that the project will have no
effect on Michaux's sumac.
The Site is undeveloped and consists of mostly mixed hardwood and pine forested areas, a transmission line right-of-way (ROW) bisecting the northern
portion of the Site from east to west, a single-family residence (to be removed), and Woods Creek Road and its associated ROW. While evidence of
flowering plant species was observed along the edges of the maintained easements during onsite investigation, occurrences of the monarch butterfly
were not noted during Site investigation. Further, the monarch butterfly's habitat is ubiquitous throughout the state and disturbance to areas with
potentially suitable habitat is minimal. Therefore, it is the opinion of Timmons Group that the proposed project will have no effect on the monarch
butterfly.
6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement)
6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as an Essential Fish Habitat?*
Yes No
6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact an Essential Fish Habitat?
NOAA Essential Fish Habitat Mapper
7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement)

7a. Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation status? "
Yes No
7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources? *
A search of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Preservation Office's (HPO) online database and the North Carolina Department of Environmental and
Natural Resources (DENR) Division of Historical Resources (DHR) data identified nine historical resources as occurring within a 1-mile radius of the
proposed project limits. No historical resources were identified within the project area. Of those, all nine (9) resources are identified as Surveyed Only
(SO), the closest of which is located 0.11-miles northwest of the Site. The four (4) closest historic resources, all within 0.2-miles of the Site, are located
north of US Highway 1 (US-1) and would not be affected by the proposed activities. The remaining five (5) resources are all located over 0.3-miles from
the Site and would not be affected by the proposed development.
Considering the proposed project's consistency with the surrounding land use, along with all proposed work being limited to the project area, the project
area's distance from all listings, and existing land use between the site and listings, the proposed project should have no effect on historical resources.
8. Flood Zone Designation (Corps Requirement)
8a. Will this project occur in a FEMA-designated 100-year floodplain? *
Yes No
8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination?*
According to FEMA FIRM panel 3720073000K (eff. 7/19/2022), the Site is located within Zone X (area of minimal flood hazard) and therefore not within
a FEMA-designated floodplain or floodway.
