Is this an after -the -fact permit application? ® Yes ❑ No 2c. If you answered "yes" to one or both of the above questions, provide an explanation of the violation(s): The applicant is a private individual who purchased the property with the intention to construct a primary residence sometime prior to Feburary 2023. The applicants were not aware of environmental protection regulations for streams or wetlands until informed by NCDEMLR compliance concerns and NCDWR NOV 2023-CV-0015. Prior to NCDWR NOV, the applicants contractor installed approximately 30 linear feet of 36" corrugated plastic pipe culvert into an estimated 34 linear feet of stream channel for a driveway crossing. Additionally, the contractor filled an estimated 126 linear feet of stream channel for construction of the access drive. Upon discovery of potential compliance concerns, the applicant immediately engaged another contractor to stablize uplands areas and install silt fencing and other BMPs to prevent down -gradient sediment lost to waters and engaged Pilot Environmental, Inc. (Pilot) to complete a forensic delineation of the site and to assist returning the site to compliance. 3. Cumulative Impacts (DWQ Requirement) 3a. Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in ❑ Yes ® No additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? 3b. If you answered "yes" to the above, submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with the most recent DWQ policy. If you answered "no," provide a short narrative description. We are not aware of additional development that will result which will impact nearby downstream water quality. 4. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Requirement) 4a.

Impacts from wastewater generation are not proposed. Page 10 of 12 PCN Form — Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version 5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement) 5a. Will this project occur in or near an area with federally protected species or ❑ Yes ® No habitat? 5b. Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act ❑ Yes ® No impacts? E] Raleigh 5c. If yes, indicate the USFWS Field Office you have contacted. ❑ Asheville 5d. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat? The IPaC report for the site identifies the following federally protected species: Tri-colored bat (PT), Schweinitz's sunflower (E) and Michaux's Sumac (E) as protected species that could be proximate to the project area. The project area has previously been impacted and cleared, however, adjacent areas contains a mature hardwood forest estimated to older than 30 years in age. Mid and understory vegetation is densely vegetated. Suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower or Micaux's sumac would not be expected to have been located within the project area. Therefore, we have made a determination of no effect for these species. 6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement) 6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as essential fish habitat? ❑ Yes ® No 6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Essential Fish Habitat? Based on our knowledge of the site, the site is not located in or near an area designated as essential fish habitat. Best management practices and the construction of stormwater ponds will prevent sediment from entering down -gradient waterbodies which may contain fish. 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.

The enclosed species list fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). Please note that new species information can change your official species list. Under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the Act, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90 days. The Service recommends you visit the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation to ensure your species list is accurate or obtain an updated species list. The purpose of the Act is to provide a means whereby threatened and endangered species and the ecosystems upon which they depend may be conserved. Under sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) of the Act and its implementing regulations (50 CFR 402 et seq.), Federal agencies are required to utilize their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat. A biological assessment (BA) or biological evaluation (BE) should be completed for your project. A BA is required for major construction activities (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) considered to be Federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment as defined in the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2) (c)) (NEPA). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a BE be prepared to determine effects of the action and whether those effects may affect listed species and/or designated critical habitat. Effects of the action are all consequences to listed species or 11/22/2023 critical habitat that are caused by the proposed action, including the consequences of other activities that are caused by the proposed action. A consequence is caused by the proposed action if it is reasonably certain to occur and would not occur "but for" the proposed action.. Recommended contents of a BA/BE are described at 50 CFR 402.12. More information and resources about project review and preparing a BA/BE can be found at the following web link: https://www.fws. gov/office/asheville-ecological-services/asheville-field-office-online-review- process-overview. If a Federal agency determines listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the proposed project, the agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402. The Service is not required to concur with "no effect" determinations from Federal action agencies. If consultation is required, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species, proposed critical habitat, and at -risk species be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or licensed applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at the following web link: https://www.fws.gov/media/endangered-species-consultation- handbook. Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species under the Act, there are additional responsibilities under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) to protect native birds from project - related impacts. Any activity, intentional or unintentional, resulting in take of migratory birds, including eagles, is prohibited unless otherwise permitted by the Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12 and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). More information about MBTA and BGEPA can be found at the following web link: https://www.fws.gov/program/migratory-birds. We appreciate your consideration of Federally listed species. The Service encourages Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species in their project planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please contact our staff at 828-258-3939, if you have any questions. In any future correspondence concerning this project, please reference the Consultation Code which can be found in the header of this letter.

Species on this list should be considered in an effects analysis for your project and could include species that exist in another geographic area. For example, certain fish may appear on the species list because a project could affect downstream species. IPaC does not display listed species or critical habitats under the sole jurisdiction of NOAA Fisheriesi, as USFWS does not have the authority to speak on behalf of NOAA and the Department of Commerce. See the "Critical habitats" section below for those critical habitats that lie wholly or partially within your project area under this office's jurisdiction. Please contact the designated FWS office if you have questions. 1.

As discussed, we will consider your actions taken thus far to stabilize the site and your email notification below indicating your plan of action as your initial response to the NOV. As discussed, please see the attached list of a few environmental consultants that work in this area. As I mentioned, we cannot recommend anyone in particular, and this is not a comprehensive list, but should at least give you somewhere to start. You can also conduct a Google search to find some others if you'd like. If you do, I'd recommend trying a few keywords in addition to "environmental consultant" and "North Carolina", such as "wetland delineation" and "Section 404/401 permitting". There are some environmental consultants that only deal with other environmental areas like soil/groundwater contamination, petroleum, etc., so those keywords should help narrow your search a bit.
