2. INTRODUCTION AND LOCATION
A United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Jurisdictional Wetland Delineation and North
Carolina Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ) Stream Determination were performed fora project
site in Clay County, North Carolina on August 31, 2023. This report presents the findings of
"waters of the United States" including jurisdictional wetlands, and "waters of the State". The
Subject Property (35.318239°,-83.801164°) is located off Old US Hwy 64 in Warne, North
Carolina.
The jurisdictional wetland delineation was conducted according to guidelines set forth in the
USACE "Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Eastern
Mountains and Piedmont Region (Version 2.0; April 2012)". The hydrologic determination was
conducted according to the guidelines set forth in the NC DWQ "Methodology for Identification
of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and Their Origins (Version 4.11; September 2010)". As
the regulating authority of Section 404/401 of the Clean Water Act, the USACE and state of
North Carolina must make the final determination as to the jurisdictional status of this site.
One jurisdictional stream (Unnamed Tributary to Crawford Creek [UT 1]) and two jurisdictional
wetlands (Wetland 1 and Wetland 2) were identified on the Subject Property. Adam Williams
and Susan Cragg, of Brushy Fork Environmental Consulting, Inc. (BFEC), located and flagged the
jurisdictional stream top of bank (TOB) and wetland boundaries shown on the attached
Jurisdictional Site Map given in Appendix C.
3. REGULATORY DEFINITIONS
"Waters of the United States" are regulated by the Corps of Engineers based on authority from
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. They include waters that are or could be used for interstate
commerce such as rivers, wetlands, lakes, territorial seas, and ponds, as well as streams,
waterways, and ditches below the "Ordinary High -Water Mark (OHWM)". Manmade water
bodies and farmed wetlands may also be considered jurisdictional depending on their
connection to other "waters of the U.S." if they are not actively mined, farmed, or otherwise
managed for five (5) years. A specific detailed definition of "waters of the United States" can be
found in the Federal Register (33 CFR 328.3). Activities in these areas will require a Corps of
Engineers permit if they include the discharge of dredged of fill material into "waters of the
U.S.".
"Waters of the State" are "any stream, river, brook, swamp, lake, sound, tidal estuary, bay,
creek, reservoir, waterway, or other body or accumulation of water. They can be surface or
underground, public, or private, natural, or artificial. Finally, they must be contained in, flow
through, or border upon any portion of this State (North Carolina) (including any portion of the
Atlantic Ocean over which the State has jurisdiction)." This definition is provided by the North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Resources, 401
Buffer Permitting Unit.

4. TECHNICAL DEFINITIONS
Wetlands are defined as areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a
frequency and duration enough to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a
prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. They are
identified based on the three -parameter approach outlined in the Corps of Engineers "Regional
Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Eastern Mountains and
Piedmont Regional' (2012). The three criteria include hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and
wetland hydrology. Generally, all three criteria must be present to make a positive wetland
determination. The criteria are defined as follows:
Hydrophytic vegetation, due to morphological, physiological and/or reproductive
adaptation(s), has the ability to grow, effectively compete, reproduce, and/or persist in
anaerobic soil conditions. Individual species have been assigned indicator status by the USFWS -
National Wetland Inventory and the National Plant List Panel. Vegetation is considered hydric
when more than 50% of the dominant species from all strata are OBL, FACW, FAC+ or FAC.
Secondary vegetation rules include the species Prevalence Index which takes non -dominant
species into consideration, observed plant morphological and physiological adaptations, and
certain problematic wetland situations.
Indicator Status
Probability of Occurrence in Wetlands
Obligate Wetland - OBL
> 99%
Facultative Wetland - FACW
67-99%
Facultative - FAC
34-66%
Facultative Upland - FACU
1-33%
Obligate Upland - UPL
<1%
Hydric soils are present if they have been classified as hydric or when they possess
characteristics associated with reducing soil conditions known as hydric indicators. Wetland
soils were evaluated for hydric indicators with the USDA/NRCS report "Field Indicators of Hydric
Soils in the United States, A Guide for Identifying and Delineating Hydric Soils, Version8.2,
2018". Hydric soils in this report are those where an indicator for "All" or "Loamy and Clayey"
soils (USDA Land Resource Region "N") is present. Colors were determined using the Munsell
soil color chart.
In addition to the above methodology, a,a'-dipyridyl (alpha, alpha-dipyridyl) strips were used to
identify the presence of reduced iron (ferrous) in soil samples. a,a'-dipyridyl is a chemical dye
used to identify ferrous iron in soils. When placed on saturated soil samples the strips turn pink
or red when ferrous is present. Use of a,a'-dipyridyl strips can be helpful in determining hydric
soils when common hydric soil indicators are not present, however results are not relied upon
independently when field indicators of hydric soils are observed.
Hydrology in wetlands occurs in areas inundated permanently or periodically at mean water
depths of <6.6 feet, or if the soil is saturated to the surface for approximately nine (9) days
19

consecutively during the growing season of the prevalent vegetation. Wetland hydrology
indicators may be present above or below the surface. Primary indicators include inundation,
saturation in the upper 12 inches, watermarks on standing structure, sediment deposits and
hydrogen sulfide odor. A minimum of one primary indicator is required for the presence of a
wetland. Secondary indicators (two or more required) include drainage patterns, moss trim
lines, crayfish burrows, and the FAC-neutral test.
In general, an area must meet all three criteria to be classified as a wetland. In certain
"naturally problematic" areas such as seasonal wetlands which are not wet at all times, or in
recently disturbed situations, an area may be considered a wetland if only two criteria are met.
Perennial stream means a well-defined channel that contains water year-round during a year of
normal rainfall with the aquatic bed located below the water table for most of the year.
Groundwater is the primary source of water for a perennial stream, but it also carries
stormwater runoff. A perennial stream exhibits the typical biological, hydrological, and physical
characteristics commonly associated with the continuous conveyance of water. [15A NCAC 02B
.0233(2)(i)]
Intermittent stream means a well-defined channel that contains water for only part of the year,
typically during winter and spring when the aquatic bed is below the water table. The flow may
be heavily supplemented by stormwater runoff. An intermittent stream often lacks the
biological and hydrological characteristics commonly associated with the conveyance of water.
[15A NCAC 02B .0233(2)(g)]
Ephemeral (stormwater) stream means a feature that carries only stormwater in direct
response to precipitation with water flowing only during and shortly after large precipitation
events. An ephemeral stream may or may not have a well-defined channel, the aquatic bed is
always above the water table, and stormwater runoff is the primary source of water. An
ephemeral stream typically lacks the biological, hydrological, and physical characteristics
commonly associated with the continuous or intermittent conveyance of water. [15A NCAC 02B
.0233(2)(d)]
5. SITE DESCRIPTION
5.1 General
The Subject Property is in the Hiwassee River Watershed (HUCB: 06020002) within the
Tennessee River Basin. This watershed is characterized by mountainous terrain and spans
across eastern Tennessee, southwestern North Carolina, and northern Georgia. The Subject
Property (PIN: 543900307748) is 2.35 ± acres in Warne, NC in the southwestern area of Clay
County and was previously used for livestock grazing. The entire Subject Property was
evaluated for aquatic resources subject to federal and state jurisdiction. Elevations on -site
range between 1,710 and 1,725 ± feet above mean sea level (Appendix B).
5

5.2 Soils
Two (2) soil units were mapped on the USDA NRCS Soil Map (Appendix D) within the Subject
Property. Dillard loam (DrB) was the dominant soil type, which was mapped along 1-6 % slopes.
Hemphill loam (HmA) was mapped at 0-3% slopes. The soil units which occur within the
delineation area are listed and described in detail below. Soil data was compiled from U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil
Survey data, accessed on August 11th, 2023.

5.3 Wetlands
Two jurisdictional wetland areas (Wetland 1 and Wetland 2) were identified and USACE
Wetland Determination Datasheets were completed for the sample points (S1-S3) on August
31, 2023. See the Jurisdictional Determination Map in Appendix C and Wetland Determination
Field Data Forms in Appendix E.
Wetland 1
S1 was located within Wetland 1 (0.09±ac) near the western boundary of the Subject
Property. Wetland hydrology indicators for Wetland 1 included the presence of
saturation and surface water (-2" deep). Sagittaria latifolia (OBL) was the most
dominant herbaceous species in this wetland, but other species such as Solidago
gigantea (FACW), Persicaria longiseta (FAC), and Schedonorus arundinaceus (FACU)
were also present in small quantities. Hydric soil indicators for this site included a
matrix of 10YR 3/1 within the 0-10" layer with no redox features and a matrix of 10YR
3/1 with a 20% redox feature of 10YR 4/4 in the 10-12" layer. S2 was located
approximately 25 feet southeast of S1 in the western part of the Subject Property.
There were no indications of wetland hydrology, hydrophytic vegetation, nor hydric
soils.
Wetland 2
S3 was located within Wetland 2 (0.02±ac) approximately 125 feet northeast of S2 in
the north central portion of the Subject Property. Wetland hydrology indicators for
Wetland 2 included the presence of saturation (-4" deep) and oxidized rhizospheres.
Polygonum sagittatum (OBL) was the most dominant herbaceous species in this
wetland, but other species such as Vernonia noveboracensis (FACW), Juncus effusus
(FACW), 6

Symphyotrichum novae-angliae (FACW) and Schedonorus arundinaceus (FACU) were
also present in small quantities. The hydric soil indicator for this site exhibited a matrix
of 10YR 2/1 mucky loam/clay throughout the entire soil profile.
5.4 Streams
Unnamed Tributary to Crawford Creek (UT 1; 385.5 ± LF) follows the eastern border of the
Subject Property flowing north to south. This stream was ranked as an intermittent tributary
(20 points on the NC DWQ Stream Identification Form; See Appendix G) is classified as Water
Supply IV (WS-IV). This tributary exhibited higher proportions of pool facets but riffles were still
present throughout the reach. Substrate composition included higher quantities of silt and sand
with very few gravels present. Grade control was provided only by rooted herbaceous plants
within the channel. The TOB of UT 1 within the Subject Boundary was delineated from the
northeastern to the southeastern areas of the property. This spatial data was collected to
determine the extent of a 30-foot vegetative buffer, within which construction involving
pervious surfaces will be avoided during the design process and construction of a potential
retail establishment.

Evidence of stressors affecting the assessment area (may not be within the assessment area)
Please circle and/or make note on last page if evidence of stressors is apparent. Consider departure from reference, if
appropriate, in recent past (for instance, approximately within 10 years). Noteworthy stressors include, but are not limited
to the following.
• Hydrological modifications (examples: ditches, dams, beaver dams, dikes, berms, ponds, etc.)
• Surface and sub -surface discharges into the wetland (examples: discharges containing obvious pollutants, presence of nearby
septic tanks, underground storage tanks (USTs), hog lagoons, etc.)
• Signs of vegetation stress (examples: vegetation mortality, insect damage, disease, storm damage, salt intrusion, etc.)
• Habitat/plant community alteration (examples: mowing, clear -cutting, exotics, etc.)
Is the assessment area intensively managed? Yes . No
Regulatory Considerations - Were regulatory considerations evaluated? . Yes No If Yes, check all that apply to the assessment area.

Is the assessment area on a coastal island? Yes . No
Is the assessment area's surface water storage capacity or duration substantially altered by beaver? Yes No
Does the assessment area experience overbank flooding during normal rainfall conditions? Yes No
Ground Surface Condition/Vegetation Condition — assessment area condition metric
Check a box in each column. Consider alteration to the ground surface (GS) in the assessment area and vegetation structure
(VS) in the assessment area. Compare to reference wetland if applicable (see User Manual). If a reference is not applicable,
then rate the assessment area based on evidence of an effect.
GS VS
A A Not severely altered
. B . B Severely altered over a majority of the assessment area (ground surface alteration examples: vehicle tracks, excessive
sedimentation, fire -plow lanes, skidder tracks, bedding, fill, soil compaction, obvious pollutants) (vegetation structure
alteration examples: mechanical disturbance, herbicides, salt intrusion [where appropriate], exotic species, grazing,
less diversity [if appropriate], hydrologic alteration)
Surface and Sub -Surface Storage Capacity and Duration — assessment area condition metric
Check a box in each column. Consider surface storage capacity and duration (Surf) and sub -surface storage capacity and
duration (Sub). Consider both increase and decrease in hydrology. A ditch <_ 1 foot deep is considered to affect surface water only,
while a ditch > 1 foot deep is expected to affect both surface and sub -surface water. Consider tidal flooding regime, if applicable.
Surf Sub
` A A Water storage capacity and duration are not altered.
B B Water storage capacity or duration are altered, but not substantially (typically, not sufficient to change vegetation).
C C Water storage capacity or duration are substantially altered (typically, alteration sufficient to result in vegetation
change) (examples: draining, flooding, soil compaction, filling, excessive sedimentation, underground utility lines).
Water Storage/Surface Relief — assessment area/wetland type condition metric (skip for all marshes)
Check a box in each column for each group below. Select the appropriate storage for the assessment area (AA) and the wetland
type (WT).

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

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option
to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an
informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their
characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a
Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre -
construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or
other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the
activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has
elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an
official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the
option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit
authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result
in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) the
applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms
and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can
accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has
determined to be necessary; (5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject
permit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance
of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit
authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the
review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and
waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance
or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7)
whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms
and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively
appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic
jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official
delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will
provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds
that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of
the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review
area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following
information:

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nres/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https:Hoffices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nres) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/portal/nres/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nres142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length,
and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and
native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil
profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The
profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the
soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that
is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the
area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind
of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and
miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific
segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they
were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict
with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a
specific location on the landscape.
Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented
by an understanding of the soil -vegetation -landscape relationship, are sufficient to
verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries.
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They
noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them
to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their
properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character
of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil

Custom Soil Resource Report
scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the
individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such
landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil -landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil -landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists
interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field -observed
characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the
soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through
observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management.
Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new
interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other
sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of
specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management
are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same
kinds of soil.
Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on
such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over
long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example,
soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will
have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict
that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date.
After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and

Custom Soil Resource Report
identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings,
fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

Soil Map
The soil map section includes the soil map for the defined area of interest, a list of
soil map units on the map and extent of each map unit, and cartographic symbols
displayed on the map. Also presented are various metadata about data used to
produce the map, and a description of each soil map unit.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
11

Custom Soil Resource Report
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha -Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha -Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

Project code: 2024-0055786
Project Name: Warne
Federal Nexus: no
Federal Action Agency (if applicable):
Subject: Technical assistance for'Warne'
Dear David Pedersen:
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 March 22, 2024, for
'Warne' (here forward, Project). This project has been assigned Project Code 2024-0055786 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: 2024-0055786 IPaC Record Locator: 377-140561948 03/22/2024 17:53:27 UTC
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:
• Bog Turtle Glyptemys muhlenbergii Similarity of Appearance (Threatened)
• Gray Bat Myotis grisescens Endangered
• Green Pitcher -plant Sarracenia oreophila Endangered
• Indiana Bat Myotis sodalis Endangered
• Longsolid Fusconaia subrotunda Threatened
• Monarch Butterfly Danaus plexippus Candidate
• Rock Gnome Lichen Gymnoderma lineare Endangered
• Tennessee Clubshell Pleurobema ovi forme Proposed Endangered
• Tricolored Bat Perimyotis subflavus Proposed Endangered
• Whooping Crane Grus americana Experimental Population, Non -Essential
You may coordinate with our Office to determine whether the Action may cause prohibited take
of the animal species and/or critical habitat 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 Steps
Coordination with the Service is complete. This letter serves as technical assistance. All
conservation measures should be implemented as proposed. Thank you for considering federally
listed species during your project planning.
We are uncertain where the northern long-eared bat occurs on the landscape outside of known
locations. Because of the steep declines in the species and vast amount of available and suitable
forest habitat, the presence of suitable forest habitat alone is a far less reliable predictor of their
presence. Based on the best available information, most suitable habitat is now expected to be
unoccupied. During the interim period, while we are working on potential methods to address
this uncertainty, we conclude take is not reasonably certain to occur in areas of suitable habitat
where presence has not been documented.
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.

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. 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
3. 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
4. Is the proposed action authorized, permitted, licensed, funded, or being carried out by a
Federal agency in whole or in part?
No

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The project is located at 5050 Old HWY 64W within the jurisdictional limits of Clay County, NC. The
project will consist of a commercial building and associated parking and loading areas. The parcel is
3.13 acres. The project will disturb approximately 2.05 acres. Adjacent to the site is abandoned farm
land to the north, commercial property to the west, residential to the east, and the highway to to the
south. The parcel was previously undeveloped and consists of abandoned farmland.
Stormwater for the project flows from north to south to an existing roadside ditch that drains to existing
culverts under the road. This culvert eventually discharges to Crawford Creek. There are two
streams/ditches with associated wetlands on both sides of the property that convey flows from north of
the site. A small portion under 0.1 acres will be disturbed and removed. The project is not located in a
flood zone.
Currently there are no detention or water quality facilities on site. It is the intent of this report to
demonstrate that the proposed stormwater management facilities will comply with the Hiwassee River
water supply watershed quantity controls as regulated by the local regulatory agency and the state of
North Carolina. At the time of this report, there were no known drainage concerns related to this site or
downstream properties.
2.0 STORMWATER QUALITY ANALYSIS
2.1 Water Quality Volume: Water quality treatment is not required per ordinance.
2.2 Stormwater Control Measure Design Criteria
Based on the analysis that follows, the proposed stormwater control measures (SCM) will meet the
minimum design criteria of Buncombe County and the state of North Carolina. The minimum design
criteria are based on NCDEQ Stormwater Design Manual. The seasonal high-water table (SHWT) is
based on NRCS Soil Survey and a Geotech report. Details can be found in the following sections of this
report.

3.0 STORMWATER QUANTITY ANALYSIS
3.1 Conveyance: The proposed conveyance pipes and ditches have been sized to handle the 25-
year storm event. Most stormwater flows are collected by a series of grass swales, permanent ditches,
and piping. These flows are then discharged into an SCM (Dry -Detention Basin).
3.2 Detention: The proposed stormwater control measures are designed to control post developed
peak rates of runoff from the subject property to be below or equal to the existing condition flows for
the 1-year storm event. In addition, the SCM can pass the 50-year storm without overtopping. The
post development flows shown below are a combination of SCM discharge and bypass drainage areas.

4.0 EROSION CONTROLS
The project consists of 3.13 acres. Approximately 2.05 acres will be disturbed by construction
activities. Erosion controls will be completed in a three-phase approach. Refer to the construction
plans for further detail on the erosion control measures.
Phase 1 will include site perimeter controls, skimmer basins, and clearing. During this phase, erosion
control devices will consist of a construction entrance(s), perimeter silt fences, a skimmer basin, and
temporary ditches.
Phase 2 will include rough grading and utility installation. Reinforcement fabrics will be installed in
permanent ditches as needed. The skimmer basin will be converted into a detention basin as
construction progresses. Rip rap aprons will be added to pipe outfalls.
Phase 3 will consist of site stabilization. Following construction, the site will be stabilized with
vegetation, pavement, buildings, etc.

Precipitation frequency (PF) estimates in this table are based on frequency analysis of partial duration series (PDS).
Numbers in parenthesis are PF estimates at lower and upper bounds of the 90% confidence interval. The probability that precipitation frequency estimates
(for a given duration and average recurrence interval) will be greater than the upper bound (or less than the lower bound) is 5%. Estimates at upper bounds
are not checked against probable maximum precipitation (PMP) estimates and may be higher than currently valid PMP values.
Please refer to NOAA Atlas 14 document for more information.

Precipitation frequency (PF) estimates in this table are based on frequency analysis of partial duration series (PDS).
Numbers in parenthesis are PF estimates at lower and upper bounds of the 90% confidence interval. The probability that precipitation frequency estimates
(for a given duration and average recurrence interval) will be greater than the upper bound (or less than the lower bound) is 5%. Estimates at upper bounds
are not checked against probable maximum precipitation (PMP) estimates and may be higher than currently valid PMP values.
Please refer to NOAA Atlas 14 document for more information.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nres/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https:Hoffices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nres) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/portal/nres/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nres142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its
programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability,
and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion,
sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, reprisal, or because all or a
part of an individual's income is derived from any public assistance program. (Not
all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require

alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print,
audiotape, etc.) should contact USDA's TARGET Center at [phone] (voice
and TDD). To file a complaint of discrimination, write to USDA, Director, Office of
Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20250-9410 or
call [phone] (voice) or [phone] (TDD). USDA is an equal opportunity
provider and employer.
