PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Garrison Road Site is a proposed residential development situated on an approximately 50.59-acre parcel, located
west of Garrison Road and east of Dixie River Road in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, NC. The subject property is
comprised of undeveloped forested land, agricultural land, single-family residences, Beaverdam Creek, and one dirt road.
The proposed project seeks to construct a residential development, as well as associated development infrastructure
appurtenances including, on -site roadway, utilities, and stormwater facilities.

CULTURAL RESOURCES
Kimley-Horn consulted the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) HPOWEB GIS service on March 5,
2024. No architectural, cultural, or historic resources were identified within the site boundary. A request letter was
submitted to SHPO to determine the presence of architectural, cultural, or historic resources on March 5, 2024. SHPO
responded on April 4, 2024, with no comments. A copy of the correspondence is included.

PROTECTED SPECIES
A review of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database on January 29, 2024, did not indicate known
occurrences of threatened or endangered species within the project boundary. Potentially suitable habitat for threatened
and endangered plant species on -site was surveyed. A concurrence response from USFWS was received on March 13,
2024, indicating thatthe USFWS was in agreeance with the "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" (MANLAA) biological
conclusion for the plant species Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii), and
smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata). A copy of the USFWS correspondence is attached.
PROPOSED IMPACTS TO JURISDICTIONAL WATERS
The project seeks authorization under NWP #29 for stream and wetland impacts associated with grading activities
necessary to construct the proposed residential development. The proposed project will result in a total of 531 LF/0.044-
acre of permanent stream impacts and 0.03-acre of permanent wetland impacts.
• Impact 1 — Stream 2
0 316 LF/0.028-acre of permanent impacts to Stream 2 associated with grading necessary to construct
the proposed development.
• Impact 2 — Stream 3
0 216 LF/0.016-acre of permanent impacts to Stream 3 associated with grading necessary to construct
the proposed development.
• Impact 3 — Wetland 1
0 0.03-acre of permanent wetland impacts to Wetland 1 results from grading activities necessary to
construct the proposed development.
Overall, impacts associated with the proposed development will result in 531 LF/ 0.044 acres of permanent stream
impacts and 0.03-acre of permanent wetland impacts.
AVOIDANCE AND MINIMIZATION
Avoidance and minimization efforts were implemented during development planning and design to the greatest extent
practicable in order to reduce the overall impacts on the aquatic environment while staying within nationwide permit
thresholds. The final plan demonstrates maximum avoidance and minimization efforts by reducing the proposed stream
impacts. The rationale to support avoidance and minimization efforts include the following:
• Avoidance of the remaining 848 LF of streams on -site.
• Approximately 12 LF of impacts to Stream 2 will be avoided through the construction of a 28 ff tall retaining wall.
• Approximately 12 LF of impacts Stream 3 will be avoided through the construction of an 18 ff tall retaining wall.
IK•]iviI�=1L1 �t•]Wdivi11111 WIN 11101L1
Compensatory mitigation will be met by the purchase of credits through the WLS Catawba 01 UMB — Starker Bank and
the NC Division of Mitigation Services (NCDMS) in -lieu fee program. Based on an NCSAM assessment of Medium for
Stream 2 and Stream 3, mitigation is proposed at a 2:1 ratio for permanent impacts to these features associated with the
grading necessary to construct the residential development. In total, 1,062 stream mitigation credits will be purchased to
offset impacts associated with this project. A Statement of Availability from the WLS Catawba 01 UMB — Starker Bank
and NCDMS are included along with Quality Assessment Results.

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:
Avoidance and minimization efforts were implemented during development planning and design to the greatest extent
practicable in order to reduce the overall impacts on the aquatic environment while staying within nationwide permit
thresholds. The final plan demonstrates maximum avoidance and minimization efforts by reducing the proposed
stream impacts. The rationale to support avoidance and minimization efforts include the following:
• Avoidance of the remaining 848 LF of streams on -site.
• Approximately 12 LF of impacts to Stream 2 will be avoided through the construction of a 28 ft tall retaining
wall.
• Approximately 12 LF of impacts Stream 3 will be avoided through the construction of an 18 ft tall retaining wall.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Stormwater facilities are sized and positioned to minimize impacts to the greatest extents practicable. Temporary
erosion control measures, including but not limited to skimmer basins and silt fence, will be implemented to
minimize sediment laden runoff from exiting the site.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S., Waters of the State, or Riparian Buffers
2a. If compensatory mitigation is required, by whom is it required? ❑x DWR ❑x Corps

Compensatory mitigation will be met by the purchase of credits through the WLS Catawba 01 UMB — Starker
Bank and the NC Division of Mitigation Services (NCDMS) in -lieu fee program. Based on an NCSAM
assessment of Medium for Stream 2 and Stream 3, mitigation is proposed at a 2:1 ratio for permanent impacts to
these features associated with the grading necessary to construct the residential development. In total, 1,062
stream mitigation credits will be purchased to offset impacts associated with this project. A Statement of
Availability from the WLS Catawba 01 UMB — Starker Bank and NCDMS are included along with Quality
Assessment Results.

PRELIMINARY JURISDICTIONAL
REQUEST

DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS, WILMINGTON DISTRICT
CHARLOTTE REGULATORY OFFICE
8430 UNIVERSITY EXECUTIVE PARK DRIVE, SUITE 616
CHARLOTTE NORTH CAROLINA 28262
October 27, 2023
Regulatory Program/Division
Megan Ledbetter
TM BTR of Carolinas, LLC
11405 N Community House Rd.
Charlotte, NC 28277
Via Email: [e-mail]
Dear Ms. Ledbetter:
This letter is in response to your request to the Wilmington District, Charlotte
Regulatory Office for a preliminary jurisdictional determination (PJD). The project/review
area is located on the W side of Garrison Road, S of the intersection of Mt. Olive
Church Road and Dixie River Road, at Latitude 35.187721 and Longitude-80.978408;
in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The review area for this
determination is limited to an approximately 50.6 acre(s) area (comprised of 12 parcels
(parcel numbers: 14114202, 141142037 141142047 141141017 141141067 141141087
141141097 141141107 141141117 14114112, and 14114114)), which is illustrated on the
enclosed site maps. This project has been assigned the file number SAW-2023-01409
(Garrison Road Site). This file number should be referenced in all correspondence
concerning this project.
Based on our review of the information you furnished, and other information
available to our office, we have preliminarily determined the above -referenced area may
contain approximately 1,379 linear feet and 0.03-acre of waters of the United States
under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) regulatory jurisdiction. These waters
are identified in the enclosed site maps, "PJD Field Sketch" dated July 1, 2023. This
determination was made in accordance with the Corps regulatory authority pursuant to
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and based upon criteria contained in the 1987
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual and the Eastern Mountains and
Piedmont regional supplement.
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act requires a Department of the Army (DA) permit
be obtained prior to the discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United
States, including wetlands. Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 requires a
DA permit be obtained for any work in, on, over or under navigable waters of the United
States.

For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and
other resource protection measures, a permit decision made based on a preliminary
jurisdictional determination will treat all waters including wetlands that would be affected
in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the
U.S. This preliminary determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory
Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you
may request an approved jurisdictional determination, which is an appealable action, by
contacting the Corps district for further instructions. Please sign and return the
attached PJD form within 30 days of receipt. If a signed PJD form is not received within
30 days of the date of this letter, the Corps will presume concurrence.
This determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water
Act jurisdiction for the review area identified in this request. The determination may not
be valid for the wetland conservation provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985. If you
or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA
programs, you should request a certified wetland determination from the local office of
the Natural Resources Conservation Service, prior to starting work.
You are cautioned that work performed in areas which may be waters of the United
States, as indicated in the preliminary JD, without a Department of the Army permit
could subject you to enforcement action.
If you have any questions concerning this correspondence, please contact Doug
Perez, Biologist -Regulatory Specialist of the Charlotte Regulatory Field Office at (704)
510-1439, by mail at the above address, or by email at [e-mail].
Please take a moment to complete our customer satisfaction survey located at

I . 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:

SECTION I
The following identifies your rights and options regarding an administrative appeal of the above decision.
Additional information may be found at https://www.usace.army.miI/Missions/CiviI-Works/Regulatory-
Program-and- Perm its/appeals/ or Corps regulations at 33 CFR Part 331.
A: INITIAL PROFFERED PERMIT: You may accept or object to the permit
• ACCEPT: If you received a Standard Permit, you may sign the permit document and return it to the
district engineer for final authorization. If you received a Letter of Permission (LOP), you may accept the
LOP and your work is authorized. Your signature on the Standard Permit or acceptance of the LOP
means that you accept the permit in its entirety, and waive all rights to appeal the permit, including its
terms and conditions, and approved jurisdictional determinations associated with the permit.
• OBJECT: If you object to the permit (Standard or LOP) because of certain terms and conditions therein,
you may request that the permit be modified accordingly. You must complete Section 11 of this form and
return the form to the district engineer. Upon receipt of your letter, the district engineer will evaluate your
objections and may: (a) modify the permit to address all of your concerns, (b) modify the permit to
address some of your objections, or (c) not modify the permit having determined that the permit should
be issued as previously written. After evaluating your objections, the district engineer will send you a
proffered permit for your reconsideration, as indicated in Section B below.
B: PROFFERED PERMIT: You may accept or appeal the permit
• ACCEPT: If you received a Standard Permit, you may sign the permit document and return it to the
district engineer for final authorization. If you received a Letter of Permission (LOP), you may accept the
LOP and your work is authorized. Your signature on the Standard Permit or acceptance of the LOP
means that you accept the permit in its entirety, and waive all rights to appeal the permit, including its
terms and conditions, and approved jurisdictional determinations associated with the permit.
• APPEAL: If you choose to decline the proffered permit (Standard or LOP) because of certain terms and
conditions therein, you may appeal the declined permit under the Corps of Engineers Administrative
Appeal Process by completing Section II of this form and sending the form to the division engineer. This
form must be received by the division engineer within 60 days of the date of this notice.
-1-

C. PERMIT DENIAL WITHOUT PREJUDICE: Not appealable
You received a permit denial without prejudice because a required Federal, state, and/or local authorization
and/or certification has been denied for activities which also require a Department of the Army permit before
final action has been taken on the Army permit application. The permit denial without prejudice is not
appealable. There is no prejudice to the right of the applicant to reinstate processing of the Army permit
application if subsequent approval is received from the appropriate Federal, state, and/or local agency on a
previously denied authorization and/or certification.
D: PERMIT DENIAL WITH PREJUDICE: You may appeal the permit denial
You may appeal the denial of a permit under the Corps of Engineers Administrative Appeal Process by
completing Section 11 of this form and sending the form to the division engineer. This form must be received
by the division engineer within 60 days of the date of this notice.
E: APPROVED JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION: You may accept or appeal the approved JD or
provide new information for reconsideration
• ACCEPT: You do not need to notify the Corps to accept an approved JD. Failure to notify the Corps
within 60 days of the date of this notice means that you accept the approved JD in its entirety and waive
all rights to appeal the approved JD.
• APPEAL: If you disagree with the approved JD, you may appeal the approved JD under the Corps of
Engineers Administrative Appeal Process by completing Section 11 of this form and sending the form to
the division engineer. This form must be received by the division engineer within 60 days of the date of
this notice.
• RECONSIDERATION: You may request that the district engineer reconsider the approved JD by
submitting new information or data to the district engineer within 60 days of the date of this notice. The
district will determine whether the information submitted qualifies as new information or data that justifies
reconsideration of the approved JD. A reconsideration request does not initiate the appeal process. You
may submit a request for appeal to the division engineer to preserve your appeal rights while the district
is determining whether the submitted information qualifies for a reconsideration.
F: PRELIMINARY JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION: Not appealable
You do not need to respond to the Corps regarding the preliminary JD. The Preliminary JD is not
appealable. If you wish, you may request an approved JD (which may be appealed), by contacting the
Corps district for further instruction. Also, you may provide new information for further consideration by the
Corps to reevaluate the JD.

Cc: Tinklenberg, Chris; Kiker, Taylor
Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Taylor Morrison - Garrison Road Project - Mecklenburg County -
USFWS Concurrence
Hey Doug,
We offer the following comments to inform prudent effect determinations to federally listed species from the
appropriate action agency:
Based on the information provided, low quality suitable habitat is present within the proposed action area for the
federally endangered Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus scwheinitzii), Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii), and the
federally threatened smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata). However, targeted botanical surveys of the proposed
action area conducted during the appropriate timeframes (October 28, 2022) did not detect evidence of those species at
that time. Therefore, we would concur with "may affect, not likely to adversely affect," determinations for these species
from the appropriate action agency. These survey results are valid for 2 years for the purposes of consultation under
section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. https://www.fws.gov/story/2022-03/north-carolinas-federally-threatened-
endangered-and-risk-plant-species
Based on the information provided, suitable forage and/or roosting habitat for the proposed endangered tricolored bat
(Perimyotis subflavus), may occur within the proposed action area. To avoid impacts to this species, we highly
encourage project proponents to accomplish any necessary tree clearing outside of the "active season" for this
animal. The active season for tricolored bat occurs during the warmer time of year from April 1 - October 15. Although
this species is not currently afforded legal protection under the Endangered Species Act, this impact minimization
measure would support our concurrence with a "may affect, not likely to adversely affect" determination from the
appropriate action agency should this species become listed in the future. If the proposed action would not require
clearing of suitable forest habitat for this animal, we would not object to a "no effect" determination from the
appropriate action agency.
The information provided indicates that suitable habitat is not present within the proposed action area for any other
federally listed species. Therefore, we require no further information and consider consultation to be complete at this
time. Please be aware that obligations under section 7 of the Act must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals
impacts of the identified action may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered, (2) the
identified action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review, or (3) a new species is
listed or critical habitat is determined that may be affected by the identified action.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Regards,
Byron

Re Project: Garrison Road Site
This document confirms that TM BTR of Carolinas, LLC (Applicant) for the Garrison Road Site
(Project) has expressed an interest to utilize 965.69 Stream Mitigation Credits from the Water & Land
Solutions, LLC sponsored WLS Catawba 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank, specifically 965.69 stream
credits from the Starker Site, in the Catawba 01 HUC 03050101. As the official Bank Sponsor, Water &
Land Solutions, LLC, attests to the fact that mitigation is available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate
purposes by the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the
issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
purchase price. Banker shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and
a documented copy of the debit of credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit
number and the resource type secured by the applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer
Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to regulatory agencies showing the
proper documentation. This Reservation Sales Agreement shall terminate on August 6, 2024, unless
extended by written agreement between the Seller and Buyer, and all reserved credits will no longer be
held for the project.
If any questions need to be answered, please contact me at 239-322-7276.

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the applicable 404 Permit/401 Certification/Buffer Approval within this time frame,
this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once
DMS receives a copy of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit
and payment must be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid
by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
