Dear Ms. Greer and Ms. Gross:
On behalf of our client, Charlotte Water, Kimley-Horn is submitting the enclosed Section 404/401 Preconstruction
Notification for the above -referenced project for your review pursuant to Nationwide Permit #13 and #27 and
Individual 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC). Authorization is requested to conduct a repair on sanitary
sewer infrastructure and to stabilize a stream channel. The center coordinates of the project area are located at
35.1870523°,-80.7892577°. The following information is included as part of this application submittal:
• Project Summary Sheet
• Pre -Construction Notification Form
• Agent Authorization Form

PROJECT BACKGROUND
The project area is situated west of Litchfield Road in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Existing
land use in the vicinity of the project includes single-family residences, sanitary sewer easement, and forested
riparian corridors. The project area consists of an unnamed tributary (UT) to McMullen Creek. The purpose of the
project is to replace a terracotta sanitary sewer line that runs along the left bank of the UT. The existing sanitary
sewer line is located in such a way that the stream channel poses a threat to the integrity of the existing
infrastructure.

PROPOSED IMPACTS TO JURISDICTIONAL WATERS
The overall project proposes to complete a repair on sanitary sewer infrastructure and to stabilize the impacted
stream channel.
The proposed project seeks authorization under NWP #13 for stream impacts associated with bank stabilization.
Impacts to the stream are proposed at two (2) impact sites:
• Impact 1: 430 linear feet (LF) of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the stabilization of the left
(east) bank. Stabilization techniques will include the installation of rock toe protection along the bank, as
well as restoring the grade to 2:1 or flatter and using coir matting with seed and straw.
• Impact 3: 312 LF of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the stabilization to the left (east) bank.
Stabilization techniques will include the installation of rock toe protection along the bank as well as
restoring the grade to 2:1 or flatter and using coir matting with seed and straw.
The proposed project seeks authorization under NWP #27 for stream impacts associated with stream restoration.
Impacts to the stream are proposed at two (2) impact sites:
Impact 2: 101 LF/0.01-ac of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the installation of five (5)
constructed riffles.
Impact 4: 127 LF/0.01-ac of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the installation of six (6)
constructed riffles.
To meet the goals and objectives of the project, authorization is requested under NWP #13 for 742 LF of
permanent impacts to non -wetland waters of the US (WOTUS). Authorization is also requested under NWP
#27 for 228 LF/0.02-ac of permanent impacts to non -wetland WOTUS. These stream impacts will result in net
increases in aquatic resource functions and services.
AVOIDANCE AND MINIMIZATION
Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the extent practicable and have been limited to what is necessary
to accomplish the purpose and goals of the project. To prevent downstream sedimentation, construction will be
conducted in the dry through the use of a pumped diversion. Temporary disturbances, including erosion and
sediment control measures within the project area will be removed and the original grade restored upon
completion of the project. Banks temporarily affected by maintenance work will be matted, re -seeded, and
restored to stable bank conditions.
COMPENSATORY MITIGATION
Compensatory mitigation is not required under NWP #13 or #27.
Please feel free to contact Taylor Kiker at [phone] if you have any questions, or if additional information is
necessary.
Sincerely,
KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC.

3j. Comments:
The overall project proposes to complete a repair on sanitary sewer infrastructure and to stabilize the impacted
stream channel.
The proposed project seeks authorization under NWP #13 for stream impacts associated with bank stabilization.
Impacts to the stream are proposed at two (2) impact sites:
• Impact 1: 430 linear feet (LF) of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the stabilization of the left (east)
bank. Stabilization techniques will include the installation of rock toe protection along the bank, as well as
restoring the grade to 2:1 or flatter and using coir matting with seed and straw.
• Impact 3: 312 LF of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the stabilization to the left (east) bank.
Stabilization techniques will include the installation of rock toe protection along the bank as well as restoring the
grade to 2:1 or flatter and using coir matting with seed and straw.
The proposed project seeks authorization under NWP #27 for stream impacts associated with stream
restoration. Impacts to the stream are proposed at two (2) impact sites:
• Impact 2: 101 LF/0.01-ac of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the installation of five (5)
constructed riffles.
• Impact 4: 127 LF/0.01-ac of permanent impacts to Stream 1 results from the installation of six (6)
constructed riffles.
To meet the goals and objectives of the project, authorization is requested under NWP #13 for 742 LF of
permanent impacts to non -wetland waters of the US (WOTUS). Authorization is also requested under NWP #27
for 228 LF/0.02-ac of permanent impacts to non -wetland WOTUS. These stream impacts will result in net
increases in aquatic resource functions and services.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through project design:
All impacts are associated with stream stabilization activities and will follow specific protocols.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the extent practicable and have been limited to what is necessary
to accomplish the purpose and goals of the project. To prevent downstream sedimentation, construction will be
conducted in the dry through the use of a pumped diversion. Temporary disturbances, including erosion and
sediment control measures within the project area will be removed and the original grade restored upon
completion of the project. Banks temporarily affected by maintenance work will be matted, re -seeded, and
restored to stable bank conditions.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
160 Zillicoa Street
Asheville, NC 28801-1082
Re: Yoruk-Litchfield Stream Stabilization
Project Code: 2024-0041730
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
Project Review Certification Letter
Dear USFWS Asheville Field Office,
On behalf of our client, Charlotte Water, Kimley-Horn (KH) is submitting this letter requesting concurrence regarding
the above -referenced project in accordance with the methodologies recommended by USFWS.
Background Information
The project area is 0.78 acres and includes streams and a sanitary sewer easement and is located between single-
family residences west of Litchfield Road in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.
Our client proposes stream rehabilitation in the project area which may require future authorization from the US
Army Corps of Engineers (USACE); therefore, our client contracted with KH to identify areas of potentially suitable
habitat on the subject property to identify and document occurrences of federally listed threatened and/or
endangered species.
Methodology and Findings
As of January 29, 2024, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists three (3) federally protected species
for Mecklenburg County (Table 1). A brief description of each species' habitat requirements follows, along with the
Biological Conclusion rendered based on survey results in the subject property.

Tricolored Bat
USFWS Recommended Survey Window: June 1— August 15
Habitat Description: The tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus - TCB) is one of the smallest bats native to North
America. The once common species is wide-ranging across the eastern and central United States and portions
of southern Canada, Mexico, and Central America. During the winter, tricolored bats are found in caves and
mines, although in the southern United States, where caves are sparse, tricolored bats are often found roosting
in road -associated culverts. During the spring, summer, and fall, tricolored bats are found in forested habitats
where they roost in trees, primarily among leaves. Tricolored bats exhibit high site fidelity with many individuals
returning year after year to the same hibernaculum. Tricolored bats emerge early in the evening and forage at
treetop level or above but may forage closer to the ground later in the evening.
Biological Conclusion: Consultation Not Required
On September 14, 2022, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced a proposal to list the TCB as endangered
under the Endangered Species Act. USFWS has not provided an official effective listing date, but is expected to
provide habitat descriptions and an area of influence/distribution range for TCB in the future. When this
information is provided, the client will be able to make informed determinations on habitat that could be
impacted by the project's proposed actions.
Schweinitz's sunflower
USFWS Optimal Survey Window: late August -October
Habitat Description: Schweinitz's sunflower is endemic to the Piedmont of North and South Carolina. The few sites
where this rhizomatous perennial herb occurs in relatively natural vegetation are found in Xeric Hardpan
Forests. The species is also found along roadside rights -of -way, maintained power lines and other utility rights -
of -way, edges of thickets and old pastures, clearings and edges of upland oak -pine -hickory woods and Piedmont
longleaf pine forests, and other sunny or semi -sunny habitats where disturbances (e.g., mowing, clearing,
grazing, blow downs, storms, frequent fire) help create open or partially open areas for sunlight. It is intolerant
of full shade and excessive competition from other vegetation. Schweinitz's sunflower occurs in a variety of soil
series, including Badin, Cecil, Cid, Enon, Gaston, Georgeville, Iredell, Mecklenburg, Misenheimer, Secrest,
Tatum, Uwharrie, and Zion, among others. It is generally found growing on shallow sandy soils with high gravel
content, shallow, poor, clayey hardpans; or shallow rocky soils, especially those derived from mafic rocks.
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Potentially suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower is not present in the project area. The project area is
dominated by a stream, a sanitary sewer easement, and maintained residential lawns. A review of the NCNHP
report, updated January 29, 2024, indicated no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project area. Due to a
lack of recorded occurrences and the absence of potentially suitable habitat in the project area, the proposed
project will have no effect on this species.
Michaux's sumac
USFWS optimal survey window: May -October
Habitat Description: Michaux's sumac, endemic to the inner Coastal Plain and lower Piedmont, 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. In the central Piedmont, it occurs on clayey soils derived from mafic rocks. The plant is shade
intolerant and, therefore, grows best where disturbance (e.g., mowing, clearing, grazing, periodic fire) maintains
its open habitat.
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Potentially suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac is not present in the project area. The project area is dominated
by a stream, a sanitary sewer easement, and maintained residential lawns. A review of the NCNHP report,
updated January 29, 2024, indicates no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project area. Due to a lack of
recorded occurrences and the absence of potentially suitable habitat in the project area, the proposed project
will have no effect on this species.
Smooth coneflower
USFWS optimal survey window: late May -October
Habitat Description: Smooth coneflower, a perennial herb, is typically found in meadows, open woodlands, the
ecotonal regions between meadows and woodlands, cedar barrens, dry limestone bluffs, clear cuts, and
roadside and utility rights -of -way. In North Carolina, the species normally grows in magnesium- and calcium -
rich soils associated with gabbro and diabase parent material, and typically occurs in Iredell, Misenheimer, and
Picture soil series. It grows best where there is abundant sunlight, little competition in the herbaceous layer,
and periodic disturbances (e.g., regular fire regime, well-timed mowing, careful clearing) that prevents
encroachment of shade -producing woody shrubs and trees on site where woody succession is held in check, it
is characterized by a number of species with prairie affinities.
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Potentially suitable habitat for Smooth coneflower is not present on the subject property. The project area is
dominated by a stream, a sanitary sewer easement, and maintained residential lawns. A review of the NCNHP
report, updated January 29, 2024, indicates no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project area. Due to a
lack of recorded occurrences and the absence of potentially suitable habitat in the project area, the proposed
project will have no effect on this species.
Bald Eagle and Golden Eagle Protection Act
USFWS optimal survey window: November through March
Habitat Description: Habitat for the bald eagle primarily consists of mature forest in proximity to large bodies of
open water for foraging. Large dominant trees are utilized for nesting sites, typically within 1.0 mile of open
water. A desktop GIS assessment of the project study area, as well as the area within a 1.13-mile radius (1.0 mile
plus 660 feet) of the project limits, was performed on January 29, 2024, using 2023 color aerials. No large bodies
of open water were identified in the 1.13-mile radius. In addition, a review of the NCNHP database, updated on
January 29, 2024, revealed no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area. Due to the lack of known
occurrences, and the lack of observed individuals or nests, it has been determined that the proposed project
will not affect this species.
Biological Conclusion: No Effect

Project Code: 2024-0041730
Project Name: Yoruk Litchfield Streambank Stabilization
January 29, 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 designated critical habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your
proposed project and/or may be affected by your proposed project. 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
critical habitat that are caused by the proposed action, including the consequences of other

Project code: 2024-0041730 01/29/2024
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 BABE are described at 50 CFR 402.12. More information and
resources about project review and preparing a BABE 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.

PROBABILITY OF PRESENCE SUMMARY
The graphs below provide our best understanding of when birds of concern are most likely to be
present in your project area. This information can be used to tailor and schedule your project
activities to avoid or minimize impacts to birds. Please make sure you read "Supplemental
Information on Migratory Birds and Eagles", specifically the FAQ section titled "Proper
Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report" before using or attempting to interpret
this report.
Probability of Presence (�)
Green bars; the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project
overlaps during that week of the year.
Breeding Season( )
Yellow bars; liberal estimate of the timeframe inside which the bird breeds across its entire
range.
Survey Effort (1)
Vertical black lines; the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s)
your project area overlaps.
No Data (—)
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.

RE: Yoruk-Litchfield Streambank Stabilization
Dear Colten Winter:
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
