RE: Greenside Manor at Bricklanding Plantation; Lots 18, 19, 22, & 23
Ocean Isle Beach; Brunswick County, NC
NWP 29 Application
Action ID# SAW-2023-01317
To Whom It May Concern:
On behalf of CTC Bricklanding, LLC, Davey Resource Group, Inc. is submitting a Pre -Construction
Notification form and associated attachments for Lots 18, 19, 22, and 23 off Greenside Manor Dr SW
in Ocean Isle Beach, NC. The purpose of the project is to construct four homes within the four platted
lots.
The project proposes to impact 0.009 acre of wetlands and 0.1 acre of open water to provide an
adequate area on which to construct the homes. Because wetland impacts are under the typical
mitigation threshold of the USACE, no mitigation is proposed.
If you have any questions, or would like to discuss the application, please do not hesitate to call.
Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,
,{ _ WLI

RE: Greenside Manor Dr
Dear Kim Williams:
D. Reid Wilson, Secretary
Misty Buchanan
Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program
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.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

Project Code: 2024-0042953
Project Name: Greenside Manor Drive
ear' ln AMMU

January 30, 2024
Subject: List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project
location or may be affected by your proposed project
To Whom It May Concern:
The enclosed species list identifies threatened, endangered, proposed and candidate species, as
well as proposed and final designated critical habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your
proposed project and/or may be affected by your proposed project. 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: 2024-0042953
01/30/2024
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:

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.

ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT SPECIES
There is a total of 15 threatened, endangered, or candidate species on this species list.
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
Fisheriesl, 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.

Federal Action Agency (if applicable): Army Corps of Engineers
Subject: Technical assistance for'Greenside Manor Drive'
Dear Kim Williams:
ear' ln AMMU
WX
January 30, 2024
This letter records your determination using the Information for Planning and Consultation
(IPaC) system provided to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) on January 30, 2024, for
'Greenside Manor Drive' (here forward, Project). This project has been assigned Project Code
2024-0042953 and all future correspondence should clearly reference this number. Please
carefully review this letter. Your Endangered Species Act (Act) requirements are not
complete.
Ensuring Accurate Determinations When Using IPaC
The Service developed the IPaC system and associated species' determination keys in accordance
with the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA; 87 Stat. 884, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et
seq.) and based on a standing analysis. All information submitted by the Project proponent into
IPaC must accurately represent the full scope and details of the Project.
Failure to accurately represent or implement the Project as detailed in IPaC or the Northern
Long-eared Bat Rangewide Determination Key (Dkey), invalidates this letter. Answers to certain
questions in the DKey commit the project proponent to implementation of conservation
measures that must be followed for the ESA determination to remain valid.
Determination for the Northern Long -Eared Bat
Based upon your IPaC submission and a standing analysis, your project is not reasonably certain
to cause incidental take of the northern long-eared bat. Unless the Service advises you within 15
days of the date of this letter that your IPaC-assisted determination was incorrect, this letter
verifies that the Action is not likely to result in unauthorized take of the northern long-eared bat.

Project code: 2024-0042953 IPaC Record Locator: 248-137858444 01/30/2024
Other Species and Critical Habitat that May be Present in the Action Area
The IPaC-assisted determination for the northern long-eared bat does not apply to the following
ESA -protected species and/or critical habitat that also may occur in your Action area:
• American Alligator Alligator mississippiensis Similarity of Appearance (Threatened)
• Cooley's Meadowrue Thalictrum cooleyi Endangered
• Green Sea Turtle Chelonia mydas Threatened
• Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle Lepidochelys kempii Endangered
• Leatherback Sea Turtle Dermochelys coriacea Endangered
• Loggerhead Sea Turtle Caretta caretta Threatened
• Magnificent Ramshorn Planorbella magni fica Endangered
• Monarch Butterfly Danaus plexippus Candidate
• Piping Plover Charadrius melodus Threatened
• Red -cockaded Woodpecker Picoides borealis Endangered
• Rough -leaved Loosestrife Lysimachia asperulae folia Endangered
• Rufa Red Knot Calidris canutus ru fa Threatened
• Tricolored Bat Perimyotis sub flavus Proposed Endangered
• West Indian Manatee Trichechus manatus Threatened
You may coordinate with our Office to determine whether the Action may cause prohibited take
of the animal species listed above. Note that if a new species is listed that may be affected by the
identified action before it is complete, additional review is recommended to ensure compliance
with the Endangered Species Act.
Next Step
Consultation with the Service is necessary. The project has a federal nexus (e.g., Federal funds,
permit, etc.), but you are not the federal action agency or its designated (in writing) non-federal
representative. Therefore, the ESA consultation status is incomplete and no project activities
should occur until consultation between the Service and the Federal action agency (or designated
non-federal representative), is completed.
As the federal agency or designated non-federal representative deems appropriate, they should
submit their determination of effects to the Service by doing the following.
1. Log into IPaC using an agency email account and click on My Projects, click "Search by
record locator" to find this Project using 248-137858444. (Alternatively, the originator of
the project in IPaC can add the agency representative to the project by using the Add
Member button on the project home page.)
2. Review the answers to the Northern Long-eared Bat Range -wide Determination Key to
ensure that they are accurate.

3. Click on Review/Finalize to convert the `not likely to adversely affect' consistency letter to
a concurrence letter. Download the concurrence letter for your files if needed.
If no changes occur with the Project or there are no updates on listed species, no further
consultation/coordination for this project is required for the northern long-eared bat. However,
the Service recommends that project proponents re-evaluate the Project in IPaC if: 1) the scope,
timing, duration, or location of the Project changes (includes any project changes or
amendments); 2) new information reveals the Project may impact (positively or negatively)
federally listed species or designated critical habitat; or 3) a new species is listed, or critical
habitat designated. If any of the above conditions occurs, additional coordination with the
Service should take place before project implements any changes which are final or commits
additional resources.
If you have any questions regarding this letter or need further assistance, please contact the
Raleigh Ecological Services Field Office and reference Project Code 2024-0042953 associated
with this Project.

DETERMINATION KEY RESULT
Based on the answers provided, the proposed Action is consistent with a determination of "may
affect, but not likely to adversely affect" for the Endangered northern long-eared bat (Myotis
septentrionalis).
QUALIFICATION INTERVIEW
1. Does the proposed project include, or is it reasonably certain to cause, intentional take of
the northern long-eared bat or any other listed species?
Note: Intentional take is defined as take that is the intended result of a project. Intentional take could refer to
research, direct species management, surveys, and/or studies that include intentional handling/encountering,
harassment, collection, or capturing of any individual of a federally listed threatened, endangered or proposed
species?
No
2. Your project overlaps with an area where northern long-eared bats may be present year-
round. Time -of -year restrictions may not be appropriate for your project due to bats being
active all year.
Do you understand that your project may impact bats at any time during the year and time -
of -year restrictions may not apply to your project?
Yes
The action area does not overlap with an area for which U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
currently has data to support the presumption that the northern long-eared bat is present.
Are you aware of other data that indicates that northern long-eared bats (NLEB) are likely
to be present in the action area?
Bat occurrence data may include identification of NLEBs in hibernacula, capture of
NLEBs, tracking of NLEBs to roost trees, or confirmed NLEB acoustic detections. Data
on captures, roost tree use, and acoustic detections should post-date the year when white -
nose syndrome was detected in the relevant state. With this question, we are looking for
data that, for some reason, may have not yet been made available to U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.
No
4. Does any component of the action involve construction or operation of wind turbines?
Note: For federal actions, answer `yes' if the construction or operation of wind power facilities is either (1) part
of the federal action or (2) would not occur but for a federal agency action (federal permit, funding, etc.).
No

5. Is the proposed action authorized, permitted, licensed, funded, or being carried out by a
Federal agency in whole or in part?
Yes
6. Is the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Railroad Administration (FRA),
or Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funding or authorizing the proposed action, in
whole or in part?
No
7. Are you an employee of the federal action agency or have you been officially designated in
writing by the agency as its designated non-federal representative for the purposes of
Endangered Species Act Section 7 informal consultation per 50 CFR § 402.08?
Note: This key may be used for federal actions and for non-federal actions to facilitate section 7 consultation and
to help determine whether an incidental take permit may be needed, respectively. This question is for information
purposes only.
No
8. Is the lead federal action agency the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)? Is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) funding or authorizing the proposed action,
in whole or in part?
No
9. Is the lead federal action agency the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)?
No

10. Have you determined that your proposed action will have no effect on the northern long-
eared bat? Remember to consider the effects of any activities that would not occur but for
the proposed action.
If you think that the northern long-eared bat may be affected by your project or if you
would like assistance in deciding, answer "No" below and continue through the key. If you
have determined that the northern long-eared bat does not occur in your project's action
area and/or that your project will have no effects whatsoever on the species despite the
potential for it to occur in the action area, you may make a "no effect" determination for
the northern long-eared bat.
Note: Federal agencies (or their designated non-federal representatives) must consult with USFWS on federal
agency actions that may affect listed species [50 CFR 402.14(a)]. Consultation is not required for actions that will
not affect listed species or critical habitat. Therefore, this determination key will not provide a consistency or
verification letter for actions that will not affect listed species. If you believe that the northern long-eared bat may
be affected by your project or if you would like assistance in deciding, please answer "No" and continue through
the key. Remember that this key addresses only effects to the northern long-eared bat. Consultation with USFWS
would be required if your action may affect another listed species or critical habitat. The definition of Effects of
the Action can be found here: https://www.fws.gov/media/northern-long-eared-bat-assisted-determination-kU-
s elected -definitions
No
11. Your project overlaps with an area where northern long-eared bats may be present year-
round.
Is suitable northern long-eared bat habitat present within 1000 feet of project activities?
Yes
12. Will the action cause effects to a bridge?
No
13. Will the action result in effects to a culvert or tunnel?
No
14. Does the action include the intentional exclusion of northern long-eared bats from a
building or structure?
Note: Exclusion is conducted to deny bats' entry or reentry into a building. To be effective and to avoid harming
bats, it should be done according to established standards. If your action includes bat exclusion and you are
unsure whether northern long-eared bats are present, answer "Yes." Answer "No" if there are no signs of bat use
in the building/structure. If unsure, contact your local U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services Ecological Services Field
Office to help assess whether northern long-eared bats may be present. Contact a Nuisance Wildlife Control
Operator (NWCO) for help in how to exclude bats from a structure safely without causing harm to the bats (to
find a NWCO certified in bat standards, search the Internet using the search term "National Wildlife Control
Operators Association bats"). Also see the White -Nose Syndrome Response Team's guide for bat control in
structures
No

15. Does the action involve removal, modification, or maintenance of a human -made structure
(barn, house, or other building) known or suspected to contain roosting bats?
No
16. Will the action directly or indirectly cause construction of one or more new roads that are
open to the public?
Note: The answer may be yes when a publicly accessible road either (1) is constructed as part of the proposed
action or (2) would not occur but for the proposed action (i.e., the road construction is facilitated by the proposed
action but is not an explicit component of the project).
No
17. Will the action include or cause any construction or other activity that is reasonably certain
to increase average daily traffic on one or more existing roads?
Note: For federal actions, answer `yes' when the construction or operation of these facilities is either (1) part of
the federal action or (2) would not occur but for an action taken by a federal agency (federal permit, funding,
etc.). .
No
18. Will the action include or cause any construction or other activity that is reasonably certain
to increase the number of travel lanes on an existing thoroughfare?
For federal actions, answer `yes' when the construction or operation of these facilities is
either (1) part of the federal action or (2) would not occur but for an action taken by a
federal agency (federal permit, funding, etc.).
No
19. Will the proposed action involve the creation of a new water -borne contaminant source
(e.g., leachate pond pits containing chemicals that are not NSF/ANSI 60 compliant)?
No
20. Will the proposed action involve the creation of a new point source discharge from a
facility other than a water treatment plant or storm water system?
No
21. Will the action include drilling or blasting?
Yes
22. Will the drilling or blasting affect known or potentially suitable hibernacula, summer
habitat, or active year-round habitat (where applicable) for the northern long-eared bat?
Note: In addition to direct impacts to hibernacula, consider impacts to hydrology or air flow that may impact the
suitability of hibernacula. Additional information defining suitable summer habitat for the northern long-eared bat
can be found at: https://www.fws.gov/media/northern-long-eared-bat-assisted-determination-key-selected-
