dry via a pump -around device (see Figures 5.0-5.2). The culvert will be embedded into the stream bed
to ensure facilitate aquatic habitat and connectivity.
The intermittent stream on the northern edge of the project area will be redirected through a culvert
and French drain to construct suitable a building pad that will provide access around the building
complex, additional parking and room for a building pad. Additionally most trees within the project area
will be cleared, but all tree clearing (approximately +/- 4 acres) will be conducted outside of active bat
seasons (October 15 — March 31).
Typical construction equipment will be used on site including bulldozers, excavators, dump trucks,
etc. All stream bed and banks will be restored to their original contour and will be stabilized.

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:
Stream impact S1 utilizes existing culvert with plans to lengthen to provide enough support for construction
trucks and general residental traffic. The proposed project avoids impacts to 60% (417.1 LO of the 698 Lf of
jurisdictional streams onsite and 93% (417.1 Lf) impact to perennial streams (448 LO.
The original site plans proposed the parking lot and sidewalk to be built over the southern stream, but was
redesigned to minimize stream impacts to only the culvert lengthening and utility crossing.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize proposed impacts through construction techniques:
All construction equipment will be operated from high ground. Appropriate erosion and sediment control measure
will be implemented to avoid unintended impacts to waters on site. Culverts and sewer line will be installed in the
dry via a pump -around device (See Figures 5.0-5.2 for details).

however, they have not been surveyed. Although
EnviroScience is confident in our assessment, the US
Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is the only agency that
can make final decisions regarding jurisdictional wetland
and waters of the US delineations. Therefore, all
preliminary determinations are subject to change until
written verification is obtained. EnviroScience strongly
recommends that written verification be obtained from the
Corps prior to dosing on the property, beginning any site
work, or making any legal reliance on this determination.
This map was prepared by EnviroScience using the best

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 IPaC 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
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
Project code: 2024-0001625 03/29/2024 17:10:11 UTC
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 bio I evaluation, that
p
listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the r sed ct, the
iti
agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402,Aoddition, e Service

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 Federal ly-I isted 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:
bttosm//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 naturaLheritaQe(c_)dncr.nc.gov.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

Gray Bat
No naturally occurring suitable habitat (caves) for the gray bat were observed within the project
area. It is the opinion of ClearWater that this project is not likely to adversely affect the gray bat.
Northern Long-eared Bat
No naturally occurring suitable wintering habitat for northern Long-eared Bat (NLEB) exists within
the project area. Potentially suitable summer habitat for the NLEB exists within the project area,
however all tree clearing is to be conducted during the NLEB's non -active season October 15 th_
March 31st. It is the opinion of ClearWater that this project is not likely to adversely affect the
northern long-eared bat.
Tricolored Bat
No naturally occurring suitable habitat (caves) for the tricolored bat were observed within the
project area. It is the opinion of ClearWater that this project is not likely to adversely affect the
tricolored bat.
Bog Turtle
No suitable habitat for bog turtle was found within the project area. No wetland impacts are
proposed for the utility crossing, culvert installation, or commerical area. Additionally, the northern
population of bog turtle does not occur in North Carolina. It is the opinion of ClearWater that the
proposed project would have no effect on the northern bog turtle.
Appalachian Elktoe
The only occurring streams within the project area are small unnamed tributaries to Beaverdam
Creek and are too small and lack proper substrate to support the Appalachian Elktoe population.
In addition, there were no near element occurrences on the NHP website. It is the opinion of
ClearWater that this project will have no effect on the Appalachian Elktoe.
Mountain Sweet Pitcher Plant
No bogs were observed within the project area; therefore, suitable habitat for mountain sweet
pitcher -plant does not occur on this site. No wetland impacts are proposed for the utility crossing,
culvert installations, or commercial area. It is the opinion of ClearWater that this project would
have no effect on the mountain sweet pitcher plant.
Rock Gnome Lichen
Potentially suitable habitat for rock gnome lichen is not within the project area. The utility crossing,
culvert installations, and project area lies at elevations below those known to support populations
of rock gnome lichen, and no rock outcrops were observed. It is the opinion of ClearWater that
project activities would have no effect on the rock gnome lichen.
North Carolina Natural Heritage Program
A review of the NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) database on March 29, 2024, revealed no
element occurrences (EO) of federally protected species within a one -mile radius of the project
boundary. The proposed project is unlikely to disturb any federally protected species. See
Attachment B.
