If we have not received a copy of the applicable 404 Permit/401 Certification/Buffer Approval within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website. Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the impact amounts shown below. River Basin Impact Location 8-di it HUC Impact Type Impact Quantity Cape Fear 03030004 Riparian Wetland 0.24 Upon receipt of payment, DMS will take responsibility for providing the compensatory mitigation.

Version: May 2017 Page 3 Jurisdictional Determination Request F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One) FI am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminary JD for the property identified herein. A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property. PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is "preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do not expire. ❑ I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein. An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years (subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05- 02). ❑ I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information to inform my decision.

Jurisdictional non -wetland features (i.e. tidal/navigable waters, tributaries, impoundments) should be labeled as Non -Wetland Waters of the US, stream, tributary, open water, relatively permanent water, pond, etc. Please include the acreage or linear length of each of these features as appropriate. Isolated waters, waters that lack a significant nexus to navigable waters, or non - jurisdictional upland features should be identified as Non -Jurisdictional. Please include a justification in the label regarding why the feature is non jurisdictional (i.e. "Isolated", "No Significant Nexus", or "Upland Feature"). Please include the acreage or linear length of these features as appropriate. For Preliminary Jurisdictional Determinations: Wetland and non -wetland features should not be identified as Jurisdictional, 404, Waters of the United States, or anything that implies jurisdiction.

Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be"waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.

(Terracon), has completed the requested wetlands and waters delineation for the Britt Property, totaling approximately 95.96-acres in Harnett County, NC (Exhibit 1). Terracon staff was tasked with identifying features that may be considered subject to jurisdiction and permitting requirements under Sections 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and under the North Carolina Isolated and Other Non-404 Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters program. Background Research Prior to the initiation of field efforts, several available resources were reviewed, including the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle of Coats, NC, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Published Soil Survey of Harnett County, NC, aerial photography, and other publicly available mapping resources. Field work was conducted by technical staff on May 8, 2023. Topography Topography in the study area is characterized by slopes and drainages. Elevations range from a high of approximately 291 feet above mean sea level (MSL) down to approximately 225 feet above MSL (Exhibit 1) based on a review of USGS mapping and other online resources. Soils Exhibit 2 depicts seven soil mapping units potentially occurring in the study area: Bibb soils, frequently flooded; Dothan loamy sand, 2-6% slopes; Fuquay loamy sand, 0-6% slopes; Lillington very gravelly sandy loam, 2-8% slopes; Norfolk loamy sand, 0-2% slopes; Norfolk loamy sand, 2- 6% slopes; and Norfolk loamy sand, 6-10% slopes. The soil mapping unit Bibb soils frequently flooded, potentially occurring in the study area, is considered a hydric (wetland) soil by NRCS. Explore with us Britt Property �I Harnett County, NC .� �erracon May 17, 2023 Terracon Project No. 70237271 Wetlands and Waters Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) requires regulation of discharges into waters of the U.S. (WOTUS). Although the principal administrative agency of the CWA is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has major responsibility for implementation, permitting, and enforcement of provisions of the CWA. Water bodies such as rivers, lakes, and streams are subject to jurisdictional consideration under the Section 404 program. However, by regulation, certain wetlands are also considered WOTUS. Currently WOTUS are assessed by the CWA's 2023 definition of WOTUS. This definition of WOTUS includes the implementation of rulemaking as decided in the Supreme Court's 2015 decision of the consolidated cases Rapanos v. United States and Carabeii v. United States. Specifically, the following waters will be under federal jurisdiction pursuant to the CWA: • Traditional navigable waters (TNWs) • Wetlands adjacent to TNWs • Non -navigable tributaries of traditional navigable waters that are relatively permanent where the tributaries typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (3 months) • Wetlands that directly abut such tributaries • Relatively permanent, standing or continuously flowing bodies of water "forming geographic features" that are described in ordinary parlance as "streams, oceans, rivers, and lakes". These are Relatively Permanent Waters (RPWs). The following waters will be considered jurisdictional if a significant nexus (contributes to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of downstream TNWs) exists between these features and traditional navigable waters: • Non -navigable tributaries that are not relatively permanent • Wetlands adjacent to non -navigable tributaries that are not relatively permanent • Wetlands adjacent to but that do not directly abut a relatively permanent non -navigable tributary The following waters will be considered non jurisdictional under the CWA: • Swales or Erosional features (gullies, small washes characterized by low volume, infrequent or short duration flows) • Ditches (including roadside ditches) excavated wholly in and draining only uplands and that do not carry a relatively permanent flow of water. However, wetlands and other waterbodies that do not fall under federal regulation per the CWA may be subject to jurisdiction by the N.C. Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) under the state's Isolated and Other Non-404 Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters program. Our delineation methodology generally follows the guidance outlined in the Regional Supplement to the USACE Wetland Delineation Manual for the Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Region, which states that areas must exhibit three distinct characteristics to be considered jurisdictional wetlands: 1) prevalence of hydrophytic (water tolerant) plants; 2) presence of hydric soils; and 3) sufficient wetland hydrology indicators within 12 inches of the ground surface. The study area was also reviewed for the presence of tributaries (stream channels) using criteria provided by the USACE and the NCDWR. When present, intermittent and perennial tributaries, and certain other surface waters, are also considered jurisdictional by the USACE and/or NCDWR. 2 Explore with us Britt Property �I Harnett County, NC .� �erracon May 17, 2023 Terracon Project No. 70237271 Preliminary Delineation Results Our review of the Britt Property identified three (3) potential wetlands, four (4) potential tributaries, and two (2) potential surface water ponds (Exhibit 3). Potential wetlands were flagged with pink -and -black and blue flagging and potential tributaries and surface water ponds were flagged with blue and orange flagging. These delineation results are considered preliminary and are subject to review and approval by the USACE, should you request, and USACE chooses to review the delineation. Exhibit 3 depicts the approximate location and extent of the potential wetland and waters and was prepared using non - survey grade, sub -meter GPS data. Exhibit 3 is not a replacement for a traditional survey. It is suitable for preliminary planning purposes only and for use by a surveyor to aid in locating flags. The following tables contain the specific information for the potential wetlands, tributaries, and surface water ponds that were identified and delineated inside the property boundary. The potential wetlands were classified according to the North Carolina Wetland Assessment Method (NCWAM). The wetlands onsite were classified as Headwater Forest Wetlands and Riverine Swamp Forest Wetlands. Headwater Forest wetlands are found in geographic floodplains of first order or smaller streams and in crenulations without a stream. Riverine Swamp Forests are characterized by seasonal to semi -permanent inundation and occur in headwaters of streams and depressions, amongst other things. Table 1.

Activities so authorized are subject to additional requirements to comply with water quality and storm water management regulations. The Nationwide Permit (NWP) program, administered by USACE, provides permitting of impacts which do not exceed pre -determined thresholds. The delineated features will likely be subject to Section 404 jurisdiction. If determined necessary, Terracon can prepare and submit a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) request to USACE to request written concurrence through a site visit or desktop review. If no impacts to any of the WOTUS delineated onsite are proposed, then a PJD is not necessary. Riparian Buffers/Setbacks The study area is within the Cape Fear River Basin. Specifically, the study area is in Harnett County. The Cape Fear River basin does not implement riparian buffers. However, Harnett County implements Watershed Buffer Rules within watershed district WS-IV-PA. Based on Harnett County GIS data, the Britt Property does not appear to be within this watershed, therefore riparian buffers should not apply. Recommendations Four (4) potential tributaries, three (3) potential wetlands, and two (2) potential surface water ponds have been delineated on the Britt Property.

The 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.). If your project area contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species on this species list, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. If suitable habitat is present, surveys should be conducted to determine the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of this species list and/or North Carolina Natural Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys. New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical habitat. Please note that 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. This verification can be completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be completed by visiting the IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested through the IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed 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 Project code: 2024-0035264 01/11/2024 species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat. A Biological Assessment is required for construction projects (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) that are major 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)). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a biological evaluation similar to a Biological Assessment be prepared to determine whether the project may affect listed or proposed species and/or designated or proposed critical habitat. Recommended contents of a Biological Assessment are described at 50 CFR 402.12. If a Federal agency determines, based on the Biological Assessment or biological evaluation, that 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. In addition, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species and proposed critical habitat be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or license applicants, can be found in the "Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at: https://www.fws. gov/sites/defaultlfiles/documents/endangered-species-consultation- handbook.pdf Migratory Birds: In addition to responsibilities to protect threatened and endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), 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 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (50 C.F.R. Sec. 10.12 and 16 U.S.C. Sec. 668(a)). For more information regarding these Acts, see https://www.fws.gov/program/migratory-bird-permit/what- we-do. The MBTA has no provision for allowing take of migratory birds that may be unintentionally killed or injured by otherwise lawful activities. It is the responsibility of the project proponent to comply with these Acts by identifying potential impacts to migratory birds and eagles within applicable NEPA documents (when there is a federal nexus) or a Bird/Eagle Conservation Plan (when there is no federal nexus). Proponents should implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize the production of project -related stressors or minimize the exposure of birds and their resources to the project -related stressors. For more information on avian stressors and recommended conservation measures, see https://www.fws.gov/library/collections/threats-birds. In addition to MBTA and BGEPA, Executive Order 13186: Responsibilities of Federal Agencies to Protect Migratory Birds, obligates all Federal agencies that engage in or authorize activities that might affect migratory birds, to minimize those effects and encourage conservation measures that will improve bird populations. Executive Order 13186 provides for the protection of both migratory birds and migratory bird habitat. For information regarding the implementation of Executive Order 13186, please visit https://www.fws.gov/partner/council-conservation- migratory-birds. 2of12 Project code: 2024-0035264 01/11/2024 We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Code in the header of this letter with any request for consultation or correspondence about your project that you submit to our office.

Reid Wilson, Secretary Misty Buchanan Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program 101 \��1M1UKWZI MA0i3 The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above. Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached `Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here: httr)s://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Land and Water Fund easement, or Federally - listed species are documented near the project area. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact the NCNHP at natural.heritage�dncr.nc.gov.
