Atlas Environmental completed a stream and wetland delineation on February 06, 2024, and February 20, 2024. A preliminary jurisdictional determination was submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on March 06, 2024. A delineation concurrence was issued in response to the PJD package on April 08, 2024. There are a total of three streams and two wetlands within the review area. The project's purpose is for the construction of an industrial development consisting of one building in the Southwest portion of the property. One SCM will be located directly to the West of the building. Entry to a paved parking area will be possible via a road running through the Northern portion of the property which connects to Grace Church Road. The development will require one proposed permanent unavoidable impact to Waters of the United States. According to the most recent site plans Impact S1 will consist of 143.7 linear feet (-0.008 acre) of total intermittent stream impact near the head of CH 100. There is proposed installation of a 141 linear feet culvert for a road crossing. Dewatering/pumping around the work area during construction will occur upstream and downstream of the road crossing. No mitigation will be required for this project as stream impacts are less than 0.02 acre. The site has been designed and engineered to avoid and minimize impacts to the greatest extent possible. All 0.018 acres of wetlands are being avoided and preserved. More than 80% of the total streams are being avoided and preserved. All sections of perennial stream are being completely avoided. There is no FEMA floodplain on site. CH 100 flows into Grants Creek which is approximately 0.25 mile off property from the Western boundary. Atlas submitted a report of findings to the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources on February 14, 2024. The State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) provided their comment letter on April 03, 2024 and assigned ER-24-0555 as the their project number. SHPO does not have any comment related to development of the project site. Atlas has completed self -certification forms for T&E which are included in the appendix of the attached T&E report.

Please reference this number on any correspondence regarding this action. We have reviewed the information provided by you concerning the aquatic resources, and by copy of this e-mail, are confirming that the aquatic resources delineation has been verified by the Corps to be a sufficiently accurate and reliable representation of the location and extent of aquatic resources within the identified review area. The location and extent of these aquatic resources are shown on the delineation map entitled, "Aquatic Resources Sketch Map" and dated February 22, 2024. Regulatory Guidance Letter (RGL) 16-01 https:Husace.contentdm.ocic.org/utils/getfile/collection/pl602lcol19/id/1256 provides guidance for Jurisdictional Determinations (JD) and states, "The Corps generally does not issue a JD of any type where no JD has been requested." Currently, we are only verifying the delineation. This delineation may be relied upon for use in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. This verification does not address nor include any consideration for geographic jurisdiction on aquatic resources and shall not be interpreted as such. This delineation verification is not an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) and is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (33 CFR Part 331). However, you may request an AJD, which is an appealable action. If you wish to receive a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD), or an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) please respond accordingly, otherwise nothing further is required, and we will not provide any additional documentation.

The project site is within the China Grove 1-24,000 Quadrangle. The project site lies on the South side of Grace Church Road, just West of the intersection with S. Main Street (US Highway 29), approximately 5.7 driving miles Southwest of the city center of the City of Salisbury, North Carolina. The ground surface slopes toward the center of the property where an unnamed tributary runs Northeast -Southwest. The topographic relief of the project site is approximately 30 feet with an approximate maximum elevation of 774 feet and minimum elevation of 744 feet above sea level. The land use of the review area is forested. The surrounding area consists of residential properties, commercial/industrial development, agricultural fields, and forested tracts. 1.2 Project Purpose The proposed project purpose is for the construction of an industrial development. The development will require the construction of ingress and egress roadways, parking, utilities, and additional associated infrastructure. The project site also will require mechanized land clearing to remove existing vegetation and grading to prepare the ground surface for construction. A U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) Nationwide Permit 39 Permit or Individual Permit may be required for unavoidable impacts to aquatic resources. A preliminary site plan has not been provided. 1.3 Endangered Species Act The Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA), provides a program for the conservation of Endangered and Threatened plants and animals and the habitats in which they are found. The lead Federal agencies for implementing the ESA are the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Before a species can receive the protection provided by the ESA, it must first be added to the Federal lists of Endangered and Threatened wildlife and plants. A species is added to this list when the respective Federal agency determines that it has met a definition of Endangered or Threatened under the ESA. Species may also be removed from the list (i.e., "delisted") when they no longer require ESA protection, or have a change in status (i.e., "reclassified"), for example from Endangered or Threatened. Under the ESA, a species must be listed if it is endangered or threatened because of any of the following 5 factors: 1. present or threatened destruction, modification, or curtailment of its habitat or range; 2. over -utilization of the species for commercial, recreational, scientific, or educational ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com / Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 3 purposes; 3. disease or predation; 4. inadequacy of existing regulatory mechanisms; and, 5. other natural or manmade factors affecting its continued existence. Additionally, the USFWS and NMFS periodically publish a Notice of Review or Notice of Reclassification in the Federal Register that presents an updated list of plant and animal taxa which are regarded as Candidate or species proposed for possible addition to the Lists of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants. An Endangered species is a taxon "in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range" (ESA, Section 3). A Threatened species is a taxon "likely to become an Endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range" (ESA, Section 3). Candidate species are "taxa for which the Service has on file enough substantial information on biological vulnerability and threat(s) to support proposals to list them as Endangered or Threatened. Proposed rules have not yet been issued because this action is precluded at present by other listing activity. Development and publication of proposed rules on these taxa are anticipated. The Service encourages State and other Federal agencies as well as other affected parties to give consideration to these taxa in environmental planning." (Federal Register, February 28, 1996). Taxa formerly considered as `Category 1' are now considered as `Candidate'. A Federal Species of Concern (FSC) is a species under consideration for listing, for which there is insufficient information to support listing at that time. FSCs may or may not be listed in the future, and many of these species were formerly recognized as "C2" Candidate species. 2 Methods 2.1 Action Area A site assessment for Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate Species includes a thorough search of historical and recent records for potential and known occurrences of species on and in the vicinity of the proposed project site. Initially, we define the Action Area as a one -mile zone around the property boundaries. The Action Area may include species that occur nearby, but not necessarily on, the proposed project site. The Action Area is defined this way because species may be affected (positively or negatively) by the project that exist in a nearby geographic area. For example, certain aquatic species may appear on the species list because a project could cause downstream effects, such as sedimentation, on the species. The Action Area also may vary depending on the activities associated with the proposed project (e.g., construction, operational, or maintenance activities) and its potential direct and indirect effect on the species identified in the vicinity. For example, operational impacts associated with lighting or noise could affect species that occur away from the project site. In most cases, the Action Area contracts to an area no less than the proposed project boundary but remains species dependent. If applicable, the species dependent Action Area is further defined in the individual species account below. 2.2 Information, Planning and Conservation System A record search of the USFWS website is conducted to determine what species are ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com / Offices in Asheville and Charlotte known or believed to occur within the County of the proposed project. The USFWS's Information, Planning, and Conservation System (IPaC) mapping tool also is used to generate a list of Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species, and/or designated Critical Habitat. Species on the IPaC list include species that may be affected by your project and could include species that exist in another geographic area. 2.3 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR), North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) GIS database is searched to determine what species or rare natural communities (element occurrences) are known to occur within a one -mile radius of the approximate center of the project site. A list of the Endangered, Threatened, and rare species and communities known to occur within the quadrangle(s) of the proposed project site is generated for the field search. This list indicates what species have been reported as occurring in the State, each county, and within each quadrangle. This is not a complete listing of what exists as no comprehensive survey of the state has ever been conducted. The list also provides the last date of observation and accuracy of the observation. Natural and Managed areas, such as parks, open space, and greenways, known to occur within a one -mile radius of the approximate center of the project site also are documented. 2.4 Field Assessment A site assessment also includes a pedestrian survey of the proposed project site by botanists and biologists with specialized experience in the identification of Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species. Atlas Environmental staff identify potentially suitable habitat for Federally listed species within the project review area based on the species' known and preferred habitat requirements reported in the IPaC and NCNHP reviews. The project review area is then traversed to evaluate all potentially suitable habitat areas for the presence of Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species. 3 Results 3.1 Information, Planning and Conservation System A search of the USFWS's IPaC website (www.ecos.fws.gov/ipac) identified Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species that could occur within the proposed project review area or be impacted downstream (Appendix A). These species include: 1) Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subf/avus), a Proposed Endangered mammal; 2) Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus), a Candidate butterfly; and 3) Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), an Endangered flowering plant. No Critical Habitat has been designated for any species within the Action Area. 3.2 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program A search of the NCNHP website (www.ncnhp.org/web/nhp/database-search) identified no element occurrences of Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species within the project site or within a one -mile radius of the project site (Appendix B). One element occurrence of rare species and species or habitats of conservation concern was documented within a one -mile radius of the project site (Appalachian Adder's -mouth (Malaxis bayardii), EO ID 38896, last observed 1890-07-29). No Natural areas were ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

One Managed area was documented to exist within the project area (Rowan County Open Space, owned by Rowan County). Four Managed areas were documented to exist within a one -mile radius of the project site (Piedmont Correctional Institution, owned by NC Department of Adult Correction; Rowan County Open Space, owned by Rowan County; Three Rivers Land Trust Preserve, owned by Three Rivers Land Trust; and NC Land and Water Conservation Fund Conservation Agreement, owned by NC DNCR, NC Land and Water Fund). 3.3 Field Assessment The field assessment of the project review area was completed on February 6 and 20, 2024. 3.4 Species of Concern The species identified through the IPaC and NCNHP review have the potential to exist within the project review area or be potentially impacted by the proposed project. Each of these species are described below, including the typical features, suitable habitat requirements, and other related observations by Atlas Environmental staff. 3.4.1 Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subf/avus) The Tricolored Bat is a species of microbat native to Eastern North America. It was formerly known as the Eastern Pipistrelle, based on the incorrect belief that it was closely related to European Pipistrellus species. Its common name derives from the coloration of the hairs on its back, which have three distinct color bands: dark gray at the base, buffy (yellowish brown) in the middle, and brown or reddish brown at the tip. It is the smallest bat species in the Eastern and Midwestern US, with individuals weighing 0.16-0.28 oz. The Tricolored Bat is a seasonal breeder, with copulation (mating) occurring in the fall before hibernation. Ovulation does not occur until the spring, however, and females store the males' sperm in their uteruses through the winter. Gestation length is about forty-four days, with females giving birth in June or July. The litter size is typically two individuals. As newborns, the combined mass of twin pups can be as great as 58% of the mother's postpartum mass. At birth, the young lack fur and their eyes are closed. The mother leaves the offspring behind at the roost while she forages at night. Offspring develop rapidly, beginning to fly at three weeks old. By four weeks old, they are foraging for themselves. Young do not reach sexual maturity in their first fall; they do not breed until their second fall. Individuals can live 15 years in the wild; juveniles have higher mortality rates than adults, and females have higher mortality rates than males. During the summer, the Tricolored Bat will roost in tree foliage or buildings, with females alone or in maternity colonies of up to thirty individuals. Trees used for this purpose include oak, maple, the eastern cottonwood, and American tulip tree. Males are solitary and do not form colonies. In the winter, the Tricolored Bat hibernates in mines, caves, or other human structures. A study of a mine in Nebraska found that in the summer, the mine was mostly occupied by males, ranging from zero to forty-three individuals. Bats were in a state of torpor from November to April. More bats used the mine as a roost in the winter than in the summer. In another abandoned mine in Indiana, researchers found ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com / Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 6 that the Tricolored Bat roosts solitarily during hibernation most of the time. The Tricolored Bat is insectivorous, consuming small prey such as mosquitoes, beetles, ants, moths, and cicadas. It forages with slow, erratic flight in areas near water or forest edges. It is one of the first bat species to begin foraging each night. It navigates and searches for prey via echolocation. The Tricolored Bat's natural predators include the northern leopard frog, birds of prey, raccoons, snakes, skunks, and prairie voles. Feral cats will also catch and kill them as they leave their hibernacula. There also are records of it being attacked by the Hoary Bat. The Tricolored Bat is common throughout eastern North America, with the southern extent of its range in Central America and the northern extent in southern Canada. Its range has expanded since the 1980s, with westward expansion reaching Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Additionally, its range started to include the Great Lakes Basin. The Tricolored Bat has experienced severe population decline because of the fungal disease White -nose syndrome, which arrived in the US in 2006, with losses of 70% and greater detected in multiple US states. The disease kills bats by colonizing their skin during the winter, causing them to arouse from torpor and burn through their limited fat reserves. Though its population experienced dramatic reduction, subsequent studies have found that their numbers may be stabilizing. The Tricolored Bat was proposed for listing as Endangered under the ESA on September 13, 2022. Proposed Endangered (PE) species are not protected by the take prohibitions of Section 9 (Prohibited Acts) of the ESA until the rule to list is finalized. Under Section 7(a)(4) of the ESA, federal agencies must confer with the Service if their action will jeopardize the continued existence of a proposed species. 3.4.1 Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus) Adult monarch butterflies are large and conspicuous, with bright orange wings with a black border and covered with black veins. The black border has a double row of white spots, present on the upper side of the wings. Adult monarchs are sexually dimorphic, with males having narrower wing venation and scent patches. The bright coloring of a monarch serves as a warning to predators that eating them can be toxic. During the breeding season, monarchs lay their eggs on their obligate milkweed host plant (primarily Asclepias spp.), and larvae emerge after 2 to 5 days. Larvae develop through five larval instars (intervals between molts) over a period of 9 to 18 days, feeding on milkweed and sequestering toxic chemicals as a defense against predators. The larva then pupates into a chrysalis before emerging 6 to 14 days later as an adult butterfly. There are multiple generations of monarchs produced during the breeding season, with most adult butterflies living 2 to 5 weeks; overwintering adults enter reproductive diapause (suspended reproduction) and live 6 to 9 months. In many regions where monarchs are present, monarchs breed year-round. Individual monarchs in temperate climates, such as eastern and western North America, undergo ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S. Sharon Amity Road #411 Charlotte, North Carolina 28211 1 704-512-1206 (o) / 828-712-9205 (m) www.atlasenvi.com / Offices in Asheville and Charlotte 7 long-distance migration, and live for an extended period. In the fall, in both eastern and western North America, monarchs begin migrating to their respective overwintering sites. This migration can take monarchs distances of over 2000 miles and last for over two months. In early spring (February -March), surviving monarchs break diapause and mate at the overwintering sites before dispersing. The same individuals that undertook the initial southward migration begin flying back through the breeding grounds and their offspring start the cycle of generational migration over again. The monarch butterfly is a Candidate species and not yet listed or proposed for listing. There generally are no ESA protections or Section 7 (Interagency Cooperation) requirements for Candidate species, but the USFWS encourages any opportunity to conserve the species. 3.4.2 Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) Schweinitz's Sunflower is a perennial wildflower endemic to the Piedmont physiographic province of North Carolina and South Carolina. It is a member of the sunflower family (Asteraceae) and is one of the rarest species of sunflower in the United States. Schweinitz's Sunflower grows 6 to 7 feet in height (though it can be shorter is young or injured) and can occasionally reach heights of 16 feet. It has thickened roots that are used by the plant to store starch. The stem is purplish in color and usually solitary, branching only at or above mid -stem at 45-degree angles. The leaves are arranged in pairs on the lower parts of the stem but usually occur singly (or alternate) on the upper parts. Leaves are attached to the stem at right angles and the tips of the leaves tend to droop. The leaves are thick and stiff, with a rough upper surface. The upper leaf surfaces have broad spiny hairs that are directed toward the tip of soft white hairs cover the underside. The species flowers from late August until frost. Schweinitz's Sunflower generally is found growing in Xeric Hardpan Forests openings and 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. Schweinitz's Sunflower occurs in full to partial sun and 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. It is found growing on shallow sandy soils with high gravel content; shallow, poor, clayey hardpans; or shallow rocky soils, especially those derived from mafic rocks. Schweinitz's Sunflower was Federally listed as Endangered on May 7, 1991. The USFWS recently completed a 5-Year Review of the species (dated December 2019) and found that no change in the listing status of the species was warranted. No Critical Habitat has been designated for Schweinitz's Sunflower. The optimal surveying window is during flowering from late August through October. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

Because the Tricolored Bat is a Proposed Endangered species, the species is not protected by the take prohibitions of Section 9 (Prohibited Acts) of the ESA until the rule to list is finalized. Under Section 7(a)(4) of the ESA, federal agencies must confer with the USFWS if their action will jeopardize the continued existence of a proposed species. 4.2 Monarch Butterfly According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, the Monarch butterfly is known, or believed, to occur in proposed project County. No occurrences of Monarch butterflies were observed within the Action Area. Because the Monarch butterfly is a Candidate species and not yet listed or proposed for listing, there generally are no ESA protections or Section 7 (Interagency Cooperation) requirements for Candidate species. 4.3 Schweinitz's Sunflower According to the USFWS IPaC and NCNHP websites, Schweinitz's Sunflower is known, or believed, to occur in the proposed project County, but there are no known occurrences of the species within the Action Area. The optimal survey window for Schweinitz's Sunflower is late August through October. Atlas Environmental thoroughly traversed all areas within the Action Area. The Action Area consists of a forested tract. The roadside areas along Grace Church Road are predominately Festuca species and are frequently mowed. The roadside areas do not provide suitable habitat for Schweinitz's Sunflower. The Forested area does not provide suitable habitat for Schweinitz's Sunflower. Nevertheless, we assessed all areas and edge habitats for the presence of Schweinitz's Sunflower. No individual occurrences of Schweinitz's Sunflower were observed to exist within the Action Area. No suitable habitat for Schweinitz's Sunflower exists within the Action Area. As a result, we have proposed a "No Effect" determination for Schweinitz's Sunflower. 4.4 Species and Effects Determination Summary Table Species Listed Habitat Species Effects Determination Status Present Observed Tricolored Bat PE -- -- N/A Monarch Butterfly C -- -- N/A Schweinitz's Sunflower E No No No Effect 5 Conclusions 5.1 Summary Atlas Environmental has completed the Endangered and Threatened species ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

No Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species were observed within the Action Area. No Federally listed species is expected to be adversely affected, or Critical Habitat adversely modified, by the proposed project. No other Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species or their habitats were observed within the project review area. 5.2 Permitting If impacts to regulated waters or wetlands are required to develop the property, Condition 18 (Endangered Species) of Nationwide Permit (NWP) 39 is applicable as follows: (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a Threatened or Endangered species or a species proposed for such designation, as identified under the ESA, or which will directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity is authorized under any NWP which "may affect" a listed species or critical habitat, unless ESA Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed. Direct effects are the immediate effects on listed species and critical habitat caused by the NWP activity. Indirect effects are those effects on listed species and critical habitat that are caused by the NWP activity and are later in time, but still are reasonably certain to occur. (b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of the ESA. If pre -construction notification is required for the proposed activity, the Federal permittee must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate documentation has been submitted. If the appropriate documentation has not been submitted, additional ESA Section 7 consultation may be necessary for the activity and the respective Federal agency would be responsible for fulfilling its obligation under Section 7 of the ESA. (c) Non -Federal permittees must submit a pre -construction notification to the district engineer if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated critical habitat, and shall not begin work on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the requirements of the ESA have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might affect Federally listed Endangered or Threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre- construction notification must include the name(s) of the Endangered or Threatened species that might be affected by the proposed activity or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the proposed activity. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity "may affect" or will have "no effect" to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non - Federal applicant of the Corps' determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre - construction notification. In cases where the non -Federal applicant has identified listed species or critical habitat that might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, and has so notified the Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps has provided notification that the proposed activity will have "no effect" on listed species or critical habitat, or until ESA Section 7 consultation has been completed. If the non -Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps. ATLAS Environmental, Inc. 338 S.

(e) Authorization of an activity by an NWP does not authorize the "take" of a Threatened or Endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization (e.g., an ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with "incidental take" provisions, etc.) from the FWS or the NMFS, the ESA prohibits any person subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word "harm" in the definition of "take" means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may include significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding or sheltering. (f) If the non -Federal perm ittee has a valid ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit with an approved Habitat Conservation Plan for a project or a group of projects that includes the proposed NWP activity, the non -Federal applicant should provide a copy of that ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit with the PCN required by paragraph (c) of this general condition. The district engineer will coordinate with the agency that issued the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit to determine whether the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA Section 7 consultation conducted for the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. If that coordination results in concurrence from the agency that the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA Section 7 consultation for the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit, the district engineer does not need to conduct a separate ESA Section 7 consultation for the proposed NWP activity. The district engineer will notify the non -Federal applicant within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre -construction notification whether the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit covers the proposed NWP activity or whether additional ESA Section 7 consultation is required. (g) Information on the location of Threatened and Endangered species and their critical habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the USFWS and NMFS or their world wide web pages at http-//www.fws.gov/ or http-//www.fws.gov/ipac_and http-//www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/esa/ respectively. 5.3 Conclusion This concludes the subject project review and report of findings for Federally listed Endangered, Threatened, and Candidate species.

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 he 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.

Sharon Amity Road Charlotte, INC 2,9211 RE: Grace Church Road; 20230629 Dear Jennifer Robertson: Roy cooper, Governor D. RBod Wilson, Secretary Misty Buchanan Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program NCNHDE-22488 The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above. A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species. important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. These results are presented in the attached 'documented Occurrences' tables and map. 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 documented within the project area or 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: htt 5JJ/www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/LlstOffices.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. Also please note that 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 an occurrence of a Federally -listed species is documented near the project area. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact Rodney A. Butler at r❑dney hutler,'&nrd[r_any or 919-707-8603.
