Ila TIMMONS GROUP YOUR VISION ACHIEVED THROUGH OURS. 1001 Boulders Parkway Suite 300 Richmond, VA 23225 May 4, 2016 NC Environmental Quality — Water Resources 401 & Buffer Permitting Branch 512 N. Salisbury St., 9` Floor Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 Attn: Ms. Karen Higgins P 804.200.6500 F 804.560.1016 www.timmons.com Re: Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) for Water Quality Certification Cork Oak Property Halifax County, North Carolina Applicant: BayWa r.e. Solar Projects, LLC 17901 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 1050 Irvine, California 92614 Attn: Mr. Patrick Brown — Project Manager Dear Higgins: On behalf of BayWa r.e. Solar Projects, LLC (Applicant), Timmons Group is submitting this Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) for written approval under the requirements of Water Quality Certification No. 3884 for the Cork Oak Property (Site/Project). This PCN is being submitted for unavoidable temporary and permanent impacts to wetlands and a jurisdictional ditch associated with the construction of an access/maintenance road and adjacent utility easement in support of a proposed solar farm development on Site. The completed Pre - Construction Notification Form is provided in Enclosure 1. Additional Project specific information is provided in this letter to augment the required information of the PCN Form. The Site consists of a 164.8 acre parcel of land situated east of U.S. Route 301, approximately 2.5 miles south of Weldon, NC. An additional 4.7 acre access/maintenance road and utility easement are proposed to connect the Site to U.S. Route 301 (see Enclosure 2: Vicinity Map). The Site is bound by Pearce's Pond and forest to the north, with mixed areas of forest and agriculture to the north, south, east, and west. The Site is drained by unnamed tributaries that generally flow southeast into the Roanoke River, and is located within the Lower Roanoke watershed, Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 03010107 (see Enclosure 3: HUC Map). Coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers — Wilmington District (USACE) has been conducted to gain confirmation of a wetland delineation for the Site as well as authorization under Nationwide Permit 12 — Utility Line Activities (NWP 12) for the Project. The wetland delineation was conducted by Timmons Group to identify the presence and location of jurisdictional wetlands and other waters of the U.S. in accordance with the guidance provided by the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) Wetland Delineation Manual and subsequently issued COE guidance. A larger Study Area was evaluated to determine the utility alignment which would have the least impact on aquatic resources, and resulted in the selection of the CIVIL ENGINEERING I ENVIRONMENTAL I SURVEYING I GIS I LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE I CONSTRUCTION SERVICES proposed Project. Confirmation of the Study Area, including the current proposed access road and utility alignment, was provided by letter dated April 26, 2016. A PCN was submitted to the USACE and the Project was provided authorization under NWP 12 by letter dated April 26, 2016 (see Enclosure 4: USACE Documents & Authorizations). A desktop review of the onsite Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 100 -year floodplain was completed and found the Site to be primarily located in FEMA Flood Zone X, with small areas of Zone X, areas of 0.2% chance flood, in the southeastern portion of the Site and access road. Due to the nature of the project as a solar farm where stormwater capacity and flow characteristics will be maintained, there will be no adjustment or related affects upon flood elevation characteristics. A FEMA Map is enclosed for your review (see Enclosure 5: FEMA Mao). To accomplish the goals of the Project, impacts to jurisdictional areas are unavoidable due to the position of the Site in relation to existing road and utility infrastructure, and the need to traverse existing jurisdictional features between the proposed solar farm and said existing infrastructure. Typical road profile and culvert details have been included in Enclosure 6: Design Details. The location of impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S. identified within the proposed project limits are shown on the attached Enclosure 7: Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. Impacts Map. Table 1 is intended to complete the requirements of Section C.2 of the PCN Form. The total area of impacts associated with the construction of the access road and utility easement include 10,884 square feet (0.25 acre) of conversion wetland impacts and 11,816 square feet (0.27 acre) of permanent wetland impacts. Impacts for both the conversion and permanent impacts are described in detail below. Table 1: Proposed Impacts Inventory (Section C.2 of PCN Form) 2a.

Total Wetland Impacts: 0.52 Conversion impacts: A total of 10,884 square feet (0.25 acre) of conversion wetland impacts are required to facilitate the installation of overhead power lines within a 15 foot wide utility easement adjacent to the proposed access road. This area will be cleared of vegetation to 2 1 P a g e allow installation of the overhead utility. The utility easement will be subject to regular maintenance to prevent trees from reestablishing within the easement. Permanent impacts: A total of 11,816 square feet (0.27 acre) of permanent wetland impacts will be required to accommodate the installation of a gravel/stone access road above existing grade. The road corridor will be 20 foot wide to allow for placement the road base and a 12 foot wide gravel surface. This will allow for a 4 foot wide shoulder on either side of the road as needed. The Applicant is proposing to provide compensatory mitigation for the unavoidable loss of 0.521 acres of Non -Riparian Wetlands through payment to the North Caroline Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) In -Lieu Fee Program. Through the application of the Standard Mitigation Ratios of 2:1 and 1:1 for the permanent loss of Palustrine Forested wetlands through fill and the permanent conversion of Palustrine Forested wetlands to a maintained utility easement, respectively, the Applicant proposes to provide payment for 0.792 Non -Riparian Wetland Credit Units to the DMS Program. This will ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment and that there is no net loss of wetland function and value through authorization of the proposed Project. A copy of the DMS In -Lieu Fee Program Approval Letter is provided in Enclosure 9. In order to prevent the potential for secondary impacts, all erosion and sedimentation control practices, including the application of silt fences and erosion control matting, will be constructed and maintained according to the standards and specifications of the current North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual. Photographs of the proposed project area are enclosed for your review (see Enclosure 8: Representative Site Photos). An Endangered Species Project Review was conducted to gain insight regarding the potential presence of Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species within or in the vicinity of the Project. The following agencies and associated databases were reviewed: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS) — Information, Planning and Consultations system (IPaC) North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources (NCDNCR) — Natural Heritage Program (NHP) North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) — Division of Habitat Conservation Based on the results of the IPaC review, there are four ESA listed species identified as potentially within the Site area. Of the listed species, only the Red -cockaded Woodpecker would have potential habitat in the area of the Site, however no prime habitat for this species was observed during field investigation. Additionally, information provided by the NCDCNR NHP indicated no presence of the species within a one -mile radius of the project area. Therefore, the proposed Project will have "No Affect" to ESA listed species. The Site is not within 330 feet of a bald eagle nest nor does it intersect with eagle concentration areas. Additionally, there is no Critical Habitat identified within the Site. The results of these database queries are included (see Enclosure 9: Threatened and Endangered Species Survey). Historical and cultural resource information for the proposed project Site was obtained from the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) (see Enclosure 10: 3 1 P a g e NCSHPO Survey). A 0.25 mile radius search was performed from the center of the Site to determine the effect, if any, that the Project may have on cultural resources. Initial evaluation from SHPO indicated the potential for Native American remains within the proposed Site area. An archaeological survey was performed by Coastal Carolina Research and determined that the project will not impact significant archaeological resources. Subsequent to this determination, the proposed access road and utility easement alignment has been revised to minimize wetland impacts. Based on the above information, attached supporting documentation, and overall Project purpose and need, the Applicant requests approval of the proposed activity under the requirements of NWP 12. Please review the enclosed material and contact either Steve Vargo at (804) 200-6429 or Brandon Searcey at (804) 200-6409 if you have any questions or require further information.

The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site. Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in this instance and at this time. 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 approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that 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) that 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) that undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an approved JD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is practicable; (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 preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes 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 approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, 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, and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33 C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This preliminary JD finds that there "may be" waters of the United States on the subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: IMPORTANT NOTE: The information recorded on this form has not necessaril been verified by the Corps and should not be relied u on for tater jurisdictional determinations.

The group of cavity trees within the access road alignment. The Applicant where the red -cockaded roosts and nests is called is proposing to clear only within the area a colony. Each colony is used by only one clan historically subjected to silviculture practices. No and each clan has only one breeding pair. Other tree clearing within the adjacent riparian birds in the clan are either offspring or helpers. woodlands to the north and east are proposed. The helpers are usually males and assist in Therefore, in light of the limiting habitat factors Red -cockaded woodpecker No suitable habitat No effect incubating eggs, feeding young, making new and avoidance measures, the proposed Project is (Picoides borealis) present cavities, and defending the clan's territory.

Cavity trees in Virginia are usually in loblolly pines. The red -cockaded selects mature loblolly trees that are 70 to 90 years of age. The roosting chamber is in the heartwood of the tree which is very hard. However, many cavities are found in trees that are infected by a heart rot fungus that weakens the heartwood."

This mussel lives on muddy sand, sandy, and gravel stream bottoms that are nearly silt free." The Tar River spinymussel lives in relatively silt - free uncompacted gravel and/or coarse sand in fast -flowing, well oxygenated stream reaches. It is found in association with other mussels, but it is never very numerous. It feeds by syphoning and filtering small food particles that are suspended in the water. No potential habitat present as described in the Species Recovery Plan and species fact sheet. No caves or evidence of caves (i.e. large springs, disappearing streams, sinkholes, etc.), mines, or riparian forests are within the project limits. Strict erosion and sediment control procedures will be followed and stormwater basins (if needed) will be designed and constructed for use in karst areas.

A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary submitted with your request for information. These results are presented in the attached `Documented Occurrences' table and map. Also attached is a table summarizing rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the project boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is included for reference. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius, if any, are also included in this report. 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 NC Natural Heritage Program data may not be redistributed without permission from the NCNHP. Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), or an occurrence of a Federally - listed species is documented within or near the project area. Thank you for your inquiry. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact John Finnegan at john.finneganancdenr.gov or 919.707.8630.

Please note, however, that although the NCNHP database does not show records for rare species within the project area, it does not necessarily mean that they are not present; it may simply mean that the area has not been surveyed. The use of Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys if needed, particularly if the project area contains suitable habitat for rare species.

Banos U ko'�Lus#A N.tSCv-AVG. SUBJECT: Construct 20 MW Cork Oak Solar Farm, East of Highway 301, Weldon, Halifax County, CH 15-0788 Thank you for your review request dated March 27, 2015. We have reviewed the information for the above project and offer the following comments. The project tract is located east of Highway 301 near the intersection with White Hill Road in Weldon, North Carolina. Geographically, the project area is located just to the southwest of the confluence of the Roanoke River with Mush Island Gut. The geographical setting of the project is considered a high probability area for archaeological remains, particularly those associated with prehistoric Native Americans. The Cork Oak Solar project tract has never been systematically surveyed for archaeological resources. Given the nature of this landscape and the high probability of Native American remains, we recommend a Phase I/II archaeological survey of the tract considered as part of this application. As a result, we recommend the following conditions for this application: Prior to initiation of any ground disturbing activities within the project area, the applicant shall arrange for an archaeological survey of the entire project area. This includes the proposed transmission corridor from the project area to Highway 301. The purpose of this survey will be to locate archaeological sites and make recommendations regarding the eligibility status of each site in terms of the National Register of Historic Places (NRNP). If a site is determined to be eligible for the NRHP the applicant shall determine whether the site will be adversely affected by the project activities; and, if so, develop and implement an appropriate mitigation plan. Two copies of all resulting archaeological reports, as well as one copy of the North Carolina site forms, should be forwarded to the Office of State Archaeology through this office for review and comment as soon as they are available and in advance of any construction or ground disturbance activities. A list of archaeological consultants who have conducted or expressed an interest in contract work in North Carolina is available at www.archaeology.ncdr-r.ggv/ncarch/resource/`consultants.h . The archaeologists listed, or any other experienced archaeologist, may be contacted to conduct the recommended survey. The selected archaeologist will consult with the Office of State Archaeology directly regarding the project methods prior to the commencement of any field work activities. All activities associated with the archaeological investigations shall also be coordinated with the Office of State Archaeolo¢v prior to imolementation in the field. Location: 109 Ent)ones Street.
