Box 10429 Southport, NC 28461 Duke Energy Progress, LLC, is applying for a US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Nationwide Permit 39 and an NC Division of Water Resources (DWR) Water Quality Certification 3890 for proposed impacts to jurisdictional waters associated with a proposed supplemental parking lot at the Brunswick Steam Electric Power Plant site. The subject property and project area is located at Duke Energy's Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, on the east side of Cogentrix Drive, approximately 1/2 mile north of its intersection with East Leonard Street in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The project area drains to Gum Log Branch which is a designated SC;Sw;HQW within the in the Cape Fear River Basin. The following attachments are included as part of this permit application: • PCN Form • Application Fee - $240 Check • Fig.1 - USGS Quad —Southport • Fig.2 - Brunswick County Soil Survey (Sheets: 18) • Fig.3 - Existing Conditions • Fig.3.1 - Existing Conditions w. Aerial • Fig.4 - Overall Impact Map (Insets 1) • JD Request Package • Jurisdictional Wetlands Plat • Stormwater Management Plan • Copy of NCDENR Stormwater Permit (SW8- 150805) PROJECT LOCATION /HABITAT: The subject property and project area is located at Duke Energy's Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, on the east side of Cogentrix Drive, approximately' /2 mile north of its intersection with East Leonard Street in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The project area is approximately 12.8 acres of primarily forested area, approximately 2,000 feet south of the generation facility and supporting infrastructure. Cogentrix Drive runs south to north along the west side with a gravel access drive running along the northern border of the project area. Land use within the vicinity of the project area is primarily heavy industrial - energy generation, with some wooded areas between the various uses. Ms. Karen Higgins Page 2 Approximately 80 percent of the project area can be characterized as upland areas with a forested mix of of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweet gum red maple (Acer rubrum), and oak species (Quercus sp.), with an understory of blueberry (Vaccinium sp.), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), and greenbrier (Smilax sp.). The remaining 20% of the project area can be characterized as hardwood flat wetland complex, with similar vegetative species on the edges with some black gum (Nyssa sylvatica), red bay (Persea borbonia), and pond pine (Pinus serotina) on the interior of the wetland complex. There are no known historic structures and /or properties within the proposed project. There are no known Federally Endangered Species and /or known habitat within the project area. JURISDICTIONAL FEATURES: There is a network of drainage ditches within and adjacent to the subject property which drain to Gum Log Branch to the north and the Cape Fear River to the east. Gum Log Branch is designated SC; Sw; HQW and is a tributary to the Cape Fear River basin (HUC 03030005). There are several jurisdictional wetlands within the project area (Wetlands A, B, and C) which total approximately 1.49 aces and key out to a hardwood flat system type as referenced in the North Carolina Wetland Assessment Methodology (NCWAM). There is a non - jurisdictional ditch that connects wetland "C" and wetland "A," and another non - jurisdictional ditch which connects wetland "B" to an off -site drainage network. The limits of wetland area "A" were not investigated, and it is assumed to continue outside of the project and draining toward Gum Log Branch and /or the Cape Fear River. There are no jurisdictional streams, open water bodies, and /or isolated wetlands within the project area. Our findings were confirmed by Mr. Kyle Dahl of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Wilmington Field Office on August 7, 2015, with an on -site concurrence meeting. PROPOSED IMPACTS: The Duke Energy Brunswick Steam electric Plant is proposing to construct approximately 209,118 square foot (sf) paved parking lot, comprised of approximately 578 spaces, adjacent to the Brunswick nuclear reactor in order to provide needed parking for additional staff and sub - contractors during maintenance periods and emergency situations. As part of its annual maintenance the nuclear plant is required to drain and refuel the nuclear reactor, which is known as an "outage." This a very labor intensive process requiring an additional 2,000 people on -site during the maintenance period. Due to parking constraints, these extra personnel are currently shuttled in from off -site parking areas several miles away to the generation facility. This is an additional logistical constraint that encumbers an already technically orchestrated process. In order to make this maintenance process more safe and efficient for the additional personnel, Duke Energy wishes to construct this parking lot on the east side of Cogentrix Drive, adjacent to the nuclear reactor (Fig. 4). The proposed project will also include associated lighting, stormwater controls, and driveway improvements. The entire site was designed to minimize impacts to aquatic resources while most effectively utilizing the upland areas within the project area. Although efforts have been made to avoid impacts to jurisdictional waters, there is one proposed impact to wetland area "B" which will result in 0.04 -acre of impact. The proposed parking design does avoid wetland areas "C" and the higher quality wetland area "A" to the east. The design is for a contiguous parking surface within the project area, but all sedimentation and erosion control measures will be implemented before construction to minimize runoff. The stormwater will flow across the parking lot to the east or rear of the parking lot, where it will then be allowed to sheet flow into wetland area "A" to the east. Typical construction equipment, such as a long -arm track -hoe, dump trucks, front end loader, and bush hog will be used for the initial clearing. Ms. Karen Higgins Page 3 TOTAL PROPOSED WETLAND IMPACTS: Impact Location I Impact Type 11 Proposed (acres) Inset 1 (perm.) Fill for Parking Lot 0.04 (road) TOTAL 0.04 acres AVOIDANCE and MINIMIZATION: Impacts to jurisdictional waters have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable. The entire site was designed to minimize impacts to aquatic resources while most effectively utilizing the upland areas within the project area. Although efforts have been made to avoid impacts to jurisdictional waters, there is one proposed impact to wetland area "B" which will result in 0.04 -acre of impact. The proposed parking design does avoid wetland areas "C" and the higher quality wetland area "A" to the east. The design is for a contiguous parking surface within the project area, but all sedimentation and erosion control measures will be implemented before construction to minimize runoff. MITIGATION: There is less than 1/10 of an acre of wetland impact associated with the proposed project. Duke Energy proposes mitigation in the form of avoidance and minimization to waters of the U.S.; however, if wetland mitigation is required, Duke Energy will reserve mitigation credits from an approved mitigation bank. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: The proposed development onsite includes the addition of approximately 5 acres of supplemental parking for the current facilities. All runoff from the parking lot is collected in grass swales which carry the water to the rear of the parking lot, where it is converted to non - erosive velocities before being discharged into adjacent wetlands. The parking lot was situated in the best available location in order to minimize impacts to the surrounding environment in combination with Duke Energy security protocols. The 34.76 acre permit boundary for this site includes adjacent forested areas, bringing the proposed percentage of impervious to 14.99 %. This percentage is below both the state maximum of 24% and Brunswick County 15% threshold for Low Density projects. In this report are detailed calculations proving that the use of the proposed centipede sod outlet converts the peak flows generated from the parking lot into non - erosive velocities. Installation and maintenance of the sod as proposed, is by guidance from the NC Erosion Control Manual. The project is located within the Cape Fear River Basin, with stormwater runoff from the proposed development draining to Gum Log Branch. According to the N.C. Division of Water Resources BasinWide Information Management System (BIMS), this waterway is classified as SC; Sw, HQW at this location. The development must meet the new coastal rules defined under Session Law 2008 -211. As proposed, for both the 10 -year and 25 year storms, non - erosive velocities have been obtained using the grassed swales and sod outlet. In order to keep the sod healthy, strict installation and maintenance guidelines have been included on the construction drawings. A copy of the final stormwater management plan and approval letter from NCDENR is enclosed. Consideration of this project is greatly appreciated. Please contact Mr. Marty McGowan, Environmental Coordinator of the Brunswick facility at 910.457.2538 to schedule the site visit.

Impacts to jurisdictional waters have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable. The entire site was designed to minimize impacts to aquatic resources while most effectively utilizing the upland areas within the project area. Although efforts have been made to avoid impacts to jurisdictional waters, there is one proposed impact to wetland area `B" which will result in 0.04 -acre of impact. The proposed parking design does avoid wetland areas "C" and the higher quality wetland area "A" to the east. The design is for a contiguous parking surface within the project area, but all sedimentation and erosion control measures will be implemented before construction to minimize runoff. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. The design is for a contiguous parking surface within the project area, but all sedimentation and erosion control measures will be implemented before construction to minimize runoff. The stormwater will flow across the parking lot to the east or rear of the parking lot, where it will then be allowed to sheet flow into wetland area "A" to the east. Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized during all phases of Page 7 of 14 PCN Form — Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version construction and installation, as described in the Erosion Control Plan sheets to be reviewed and approved by the NC Division of Land Quality and/or Brunswick County Erosion Control. All work will take place during dry conditions and can be facilitated from high, non - jurisdictional, stable ground adjacent to the shoreline. The contractor shall install silt fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, diversion ditches, tree protection, and other measures as shown on the erosion control plans, clearing only as necessary to install these 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. All slopes shall be graded no steeper than the angle that can be retained by vegetative cover or other adequate erosion control devices or structures. No material for construction will be placed in jurisdictional waters, at any time. Excavation will be limited to the area necessary for site preparation; all excavated material will be placed and retained on high ground above the flood pool elevation. All excavated material will be placed landward of the normal pool elevation contour on high ground and confined by adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent erosion and sedimentation into adjacent waters, wetlands, or streams. 2.

What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat? The USFWS web page (httn: / /www.fws.2ov /endangered/) and the Natural Heritage virtual workroom ( htto : / /www.ncnhn.org/web /nht) /nhn- man - viewer) were accessed on April 29, 2015, to determine if the project would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat. Based on field inspections conducted on April 30, 2015, it is believed that no adverse impacts to threatened and endangered species and their known habitat will occur due to the construction of the proposed project. McAdams requested concurrence of these findings from the USFWS on May 4, 2015. On June 4, 2015, the USFWS responded and concluded "that the proposed action is not likely to adversely affect any federally - listed endangered or threatened species, their formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under Act at these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the Act have been satisfied for your project." Please see attached letter. 6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement) 6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as essential fish habitat? I ❑ Yes ® No 6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Essential Fish Habitat? An interactive map called the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) Mapper (httn: / /www. habitat. noaa .2ov /Drotection/efIVefhmanner /) was accessed on June 26, 2015 to determine if the project will impact Essential Fish Habitat. 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 ❑ Yes ® No status (e.g., National Historic Trust designation or properties significant in North Carolina history and archaeology)? 7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources? A review of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) interactive map, which shows the locations of properties and districts in Brunswick County, North Carolina entered in the National Register of Historic Places (http: / /gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/) was conducted on April 29, 2015. Based on field inspections conducted on April 30, 2015, it is believed that there are no historically sites located at the proposed project. McAdams requested concurrence of these findings from the SHPO on May 4, 2015. On May 22, 2015, SHPO responded and concluded that they "are aware of no historic resources which would be affected by the project." Please see attached letter.

Non - regulated waters /wetlands (check if applicable):' ® Potentially jurisdictional waters and/or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to be not jurisdictional. Explain: The 2 non -RPWs were determined to be ephemeral ditches, and therefore not jurisdictional. Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below. ? For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year -round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally" (e.g., typically 3 months). 3 Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F. SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete Section HI.A.1 and Section I LDA. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2 and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below. 1. TNW Identify TNW: Summarize rationale supporting determination: 2. Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent ": B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY): This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met. The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non - navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3 months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round (perennial) flow, sldp to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow, skip to Section IH.D.4. A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law. If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for the tributary, Section HI.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section HI.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below. 1. Characteristics of non -TNWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNW (i) General Area Conditions: Watershed size: 9.5 acres Drainage area: 2.9 acres Average annual rainfall: 60.99 inches Average annual snowfall: 0.0 inches (ii) Physical Characteristics: (a) Relationship with TNW: ❑ Tributary flows directly into TNW. ® Tributary flows through I tributaries before entering TNW. Project waters are 2 -5 river miles from TNW. Project waters are 1 (or less) river miles from RPW. Project waters are 1 -2 aerial (straight) miles from TNW. Project waters are 1 (or less) aerial (straight) miles from RPW. Project waters cross or serve as state boundaries. Explain: Identify flow route to TNW: Project waters flow south and east through ditches and canals, then into Gum Log Branch, into Nancy Creek, into Welden Creek, for approximately 4 miles and then enter the Cape Fear River. 4 Note that the Instructional Guidebook contains additional information regarding swales, ditches, washes, and erosional features generally and in the and West. 5 Flow route can be described by identifying, e.g., tributary a, which flows through the review area, to flow into tributary b, which then flows into TNW. Tributary stream order, if known: 1 st. (b) General Tributary Characteristics (check all that anal* Tributary is: ❑ Natural ® Artificial (man- made). Explain: The 2 non -RPWs are artificial ditches. ❑ Manipulated (man - altered).

Type /% cover: ® Other. Explain: tributary (ditch) substrate is not significantly different from surrounding substrate. Tributary condition/stability [e.g., highly eroding, sloughing banks]. Explain: bed and bank are not well defined, stable banks, little erosion or movement of sediment. Presence of run/riffle /pool complexes. Explain: ditches do not have well developed run/riffle /pool complexes.

(iii) Chemical Characteristics: Characterize tributary (e.g., water color is clear, discolored, oily film; water quality, general watershed characteristics, etc.). Explain: No water was present in ditches at time of evaluation; no evidence of pollutants were observed. Identify specific pollutants, if known: 6A natural or man -made discontinuity in the OHWM does not necessarily sever jurisdiction (e.g., where the stream temporarily flows underground, or where the OHWM has been removed by development or agricultural practices). Where there is a break in the OHWM that is unrelated to the waterbody's flow regime (e.g., flow over a rock outcrop or through a culvert), the agencies will look for indicators of flow above and below the break.

Explain findings: ® Aquatic /wildlife diversity. Explain findings:Wetlands provide habitat for terrestrial species. 3. Characteristics of all wetlands adjacent to the tributary (if an ) All wetland(s) being considered in the cumulative analysis: Approximately ( 2.1 ) acres in total are being considered in the cumulative analysis. For each wetland, specify the following: Directly abuts? (Y/N) Size (in acres) Directiv abuts? (Y/1) Size (in acres) Wetland A - Y 1.95 Wetland B - N 0.13 Wetland C - Y 0.06 Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed: Wetlands provide habitat for terrestrial species, remove pollutants from storm flows, and attenuate flooding downstream during and after large rain events. C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW. Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus. Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example: • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW? Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below: 1. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D: 2. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non -RPW flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section HIM: The non -RPWs and their adjacent wetlands have the capacity to reduce the amount of pollutants and flood waters reaching TNWs. 3. Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III.D: D.

Grass height will not exceed six inches at any time; and grass will not be mowed too close to the ground or "scalped ". 2. Swales will be inspected monthly or after every runoff producing rainfall event for sediment build -up, erosion, and trash accumulation. 3. Accumulated sediment and trash will be removed as necessary. Swales will be reseeded or sodded following sediment removal. 4. Eroded areas of the swales will be repaired and reseeded. Swales will be revegetated as needed and in a timely manner based on the monthly inspections. Side slopes must be maintained at the permitted slope. 5. Catch basins, curb cuts, velocity reduction devices, and piping will be inspected monthly or after every significant runoff producing rainfall event. Trash and debris will be cleared away from grates, curb cuts, velocity reduction devices and piping. 6. Swales will not be altered, piped, or filled in without approval from NCDENR Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources.

McAdams Company, Inc. 2905 Meridian parkway Durham, NC 27713 Re: Brunswick Nuclear Plant Parking Lot- Brunswick County, NC Dear Ms. Roth: This letter is to inform you that a list of all federally - protected endangered and threatened species with known occurrences in North Carolina is now available on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (Service) web page at http: / /www.fws.gov /raleigh. Therefore, if you have projects that occur within the Raleigh Field Office's area of responsibility (see attached county list), you no longer need to contact the Raleigh Field Office for a list of federally- protected species. Our web page contains a complete and frequently updated list of all endangered and threatened species protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)(Act), and a list of federal species of concern' that are known to occur in each county in North Carolina. Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non - federal representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized, funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any federally - listed. endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the Service is necessary. In addition to the federally - protected species list, information on the species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or evaluation and can be found on our web page at http: / /www.fws.gov /raleigh. Please check the web site often for updated information or changes. ' The term "federal species of concern" refers to those species which the Service believes might be in need of concentrated conservation actions. Federal species of concern receive no legal protection and their designation does not necessarily imply that the species will eventually be proposed for listing as a federally endangered or threatened species. However, we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid or minimize adverse impacts to federal species of concern. If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally - listed species known to be present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys. If you determine that the proposed action may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely to adversely affect) a federally - protected species, you should notify this office with your determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects, before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed action will have no effect (i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles. With regard to the above - referenced project, we offer the following remarks. Our comments are submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with, provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed action is not likely to adversely affect any federally- listed endangered or threatened species, their formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the Act have been satisfied for your project. Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if. (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2) this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or, (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action. However, the Service is concerned about the potential impacts the proposed action might have on aquatic species. Aquatic resources are highly susceptible to sedimentation. Therefore, we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid adverse impacts to aquatic species, including implementing directional boring methods and stringent sediment and erosion control measures. An erosion and sedimentation control plan should be submitted to and approved by the North Carolina Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section prior to construction. Erosion and sedimentation controls should be installed and maintained between the construction site and any nearby down - gradient surface waters. In addition, we recommend maintaining natural, vegetated buffers on all streams and creeks adjacent to the project site. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has developed a Guidance Memorandum (a copy can be found on our website at (http: / /www.fws.gov /raleigh) to address and mitigate secondary and cumulative impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources and water quality. We recommend that you consider this document in the development of your projects and in completing an initiation package for consultation (if necessary). 2 We hope you find our web page useful and informative and that following the process described above will reduce the time required, and eliminate the need, for general correspondence for species' lists. If you have any questions or comments, please contact John Ellis of this office at (919) 856 -4520 ext. 26.
