C. Basis for -Determination:
The site contains wetlands as determined by the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual and the Regional
Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual: Eastern Mountain and Piedmont Region, version 2.
These wetlands are abutting to stream channels located on the site which exhibit indicators of ordinary high water marks
and have perennial flow. The stream channels at the site are unnamed tributaries (UTs) of the Valley River and the Valley
River. The UTs of the Valley River are relatively permanent waters (RPW), which flow into the Valley River, a
traditional navigable river (TNW), and then flow into the Hiwassee River (TNW). The Hiwassee River drains to the
Tennessee -River, which flows into the Obio-River then to the Mississippi River before_ entering the Gulf of Mexico.
D-. Remarks:
The waters of the U.S., at this site, were verified on-site by the Corps on August 25, 2015 and are as approximately
depicted on the attached Jurisdictional Determination maps (dated August 2015) submitted by Mountain Soils, Inc.

Mr. T. Dean -Haney
T.D. Haney Consulting Engineers

Alexander, North Carolina, 28701
Dear Mr. Haney:
Subject. Pre -Construction Notice (PCN) for Reagan Avenue Valley -Homes, LLC Residential -
Development; Andrews, Cherokee County, North Carolina
Log No. 4-2-16-150
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the information provided in your
letter and PCN dated December 17, 2015. We submit the following comments in accordance
with the provisions of the Fi-sh and -Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended (16 U.S:C.
661--667e); the National -Environmental -Policy Act -(42 U.S.C. §4321-et-seq.); and -section 7 of
the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act).
Project Description
According to the information provided, your client is seeking approval to construct a residential
development and appurtenant structures on a 26.6 acre parcel of land in Andrews, Cherokee
Countv, North Carolina. Specifically, the proposed project would temporarily install 75 linear
feet -of gravity sewer line acros-s-the edge of a freshwater- marsh -that -would result- in -temporary
impacts to 0.015 acres of wetland adjacent to the Valley River.
Federally Protected Species
The Service has reviewed the information provided in your Protected Species Evaluation.
Suitable roosting habitat for the federally threatened northern long-eared bat (Myotis
septentrionalis) exists at the project site. The final 4(d) rule for the -northern long-eared bat was
published -on January 14; 2016: This -rule exempts -"take" of northern long -eared -bat -for any -tree --
cutting activity that occurs more than 0.25 miles from a known hibernation site or more than 150
feet of a known maternity roost during the pup -rearing season (June 1 through July 31)1.
Because your project meets the "exempt" criteria, any associated take that may result from the
I Occupied roost trees may be removed when necessary to address a direct threat to human life and property.

proposed -project has-been addressed -in -the Biological -Opinion -for the 4(d) -rule and -we require
no further action under section 7 of the Act for this species.
Since this project occurs within the known range for the northern long-eared bat, we request that
you incorporate conservation measures' into development plans. While our determination does
not depend on the implementation of these measures, they should be considered to further reduce
the probability of take and aid species recovery.
Based -on -the information -provided and -the Service's records, no -other federally threatened -or
endangered species or their respective suitable habitats occur in the project area. Therefore, we
consider consultation to be complete at this time. However, please be aware that obligations
under section 7 of the Act must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this
identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously
considered, (2) this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this
review, or (3) a new -species is listed or critical habitat �s determined that may be affected by the
identified action.
The hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis), smoky dace (Clinostomus sp.1), and the Valley
River crayfish (Cambarus brimleyorum) are federal species of concern known from the Valley
River adjacent to the project site. The sicklefin redhorse (Moxostoma sp.2) is also known from
the Valley River and is a candidate for listing under the Act. The Service offers the following
recommendations in the interest of protecting these and other natural resources that may be
impacted by the proposed. project:
Riparian Buffers
Since potential habitat for aquatic resources occur on or adjacent to the project site, we
recommend that forested riparian buffers be preserved and/or restored. Natural, forested riparian
buffers are critical to the health of aquatic ecosystems. The Service generally recommends that
forested riparian buffers (a minimum of 50 feet wide along intermittent streams and 100 feet
wide along perennial streams [or the full extent of the 100 -year floodplain, whichever is greater]),
should be created and/or maintained along all aquatic areas. Within the watersheds of streams
supporting endangered aquatic species, we recommend undisturbed, forested buffers that are
naturally vegetated with trees, shrubs, and herbaceous vegetation and extend a minimum of
200 feet from the banks of all perennial streams and a minimum of 100 feet from the banks of
all intermittent streams or the full extent of the 100 -year floodplain, whichever is greater). In the
interest of reducing potential impacts to aquatic resources in the Valley River, the Service
strongly encourages you to restore a wider riparian buffer along the northern property boundary
(adjacent to lots 61, 60, 49, 48, 28, and 29). The proposed layout of the lots appear to be very
close to the top of the bank which could lead to bank destabilization, erosion, and property
damage associated with flooding. Coupled with your plans for a common area, we believe that
restoring a naturally vegetated riparian buffer would provide a unique and marketable facet of
the development consistent with your client's objectives.
Construction in Streams and Wetlands
The amount of disturbance to soils and instream and wetland habitats should not exceed what
can be stabilized by the end of the work day. Equipment should be kept out of streams and
wetlands by operating from the banks in a fashion that minimizes disturbance to woody

vegetation'The-site-should-be inspected -daily and -should -be maintained -in -order to -prevent -the
contamination of surface waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials. All fuels, lubricants, and other toxic materials should be stored outside the riparian
management area of the stream, in a location where the material can be contained. Equipment
should be checked for leaks of hydraulic fluids, cooling system liquids, and fuel and should be
cleaned before fording any stream. Also, all fueling operations should be accomplished outside
the riparian area.
Stormwater Management
As proposed, the imperviousness of the project site would increase dramatically. Since
impervious surfaces (such as roofs, roads, and parking lots) collect pathogens, metals, sediment,
and chemical pollutants and quickly transmit them (via stormwater runoff) to receiving waters,
the Service recommends implementing stormwater systems that allow runoff to infiltrate the soil.
These systems have the highest documented pollutant -removal efficiency, eliminating nearly all
lead, zinc, and -solids; and more than 50 percent of total phosphorous. Ponds and wetlands,
which -allow -contaminants -to -settle out -of the water -column -or -break down -in -the presence of
sunlight and biological activity, can remove more than 70 percent of bacteria. Where detention
ponds are used, stormwater outlets should drain through a vegetated area prior to reaching any
natural stream or wetland area. Detention structures should be designed to allow for the slow
discharge of stormwater, attenuating the potential adverse effects of stormwater surges; thermal
spikes; and sediment, nutrient, and chemical discharges. Since the purpose of these
stormwater-control measures and best management practices is to protect streams and wetlands,
they -should not -be installed -within -any -stream -(perennial -or -intermittent); wetland; -or -riparian
area.
Additionally, we recommend that all new developments, regardless of the percentage of
impervious surface area they will create, implement stormwater-retention and -treatment
measures designed to replicate the hydrograph at the preconstruction condition in order to avoid
any additional impacts to habitat quality within the watershed. Rather than traditional
-stormwater-treatment-measures-like large retention ponds; we recommend -implementing
low -impact -development techniques, such as reduced road widths, grassed swales in place of
curb and gutter, rain gardens, and wetland retention areas. Sufficient retention designs should be
implemented to allow for the slow discharge of stormwater, attenuating the potential adverse
effects of stormwater surges; thermal spikes; and sediment, nutrient, and chemical discharges.
These designs often cost less to install and significantly reduce environmental impacts from
development.
The Service recommends that -consideration -be given -to -the use of pervious materials (ice.,
pervious concrete, interlocking/open paving blocks, etc.) for the construction of roads,
driveways, sidewalks, etc. Pervious surfaces minimize changes to the hydrology of the
watershed and can be used to facilitate groundwater recharge. Pervious materials are also less
likely to absorb and store heat and allow the cooler soil below to cool the pavement (thus
preventing heated water from entering adjacent waterways). Additionally, pervious concrete
requires less maintenance and is less -susceptible to freeze/thaw cracking due to large voids
within the concrete. We also -recommend; wherever applicable, the incorporation -of rooftop
gardens or any type of green rooftop into the building construction plans. Green rooftops have

many benefits, including: (a) -keeping buildings warmer by adding -insulation -to -the roof,
resulting in lower heating and cooling costs; (b) reducing the amount and improving the quality
of stormwater runoff because water is absorbed and filtered through plants and soil; and
(c) improving overall air quality by removing particulate matter from the air. These
recommendations, along with the proposed stormwater runoff collection devices that will be
constructed, would decrease the amount of stormwater runoff while increasing its quality.
Invasive Exotic Species
Invasive plant species are likely present at the site and the Service is concerned that disturbances
resulting from the proposed project may allow them to spread. Without active management,
including the revegetation of native species in disturbed areas, project corridors will likely be
sources of, and corridors for, the movement of invasive exotic plant species. Exotic species are a
major contributor to species depletion and extinction, second only to habitat loss. Exotics are a
factor contributing to the endangered or threatened status of more than 40 percent of the animals
and plants on the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants.' It is
estimated that at least 4,000 exotic plant species and 2,300 exotic animal species are now
established in the United States, costing more than $130 billion a year to control.3 Additionally,
the U.S. Government has many programs and laws in place to combat invasive species (see
www.invasivespecies.gov). Specifically, Section 2(a)(3) of Executive Order 13112 - Invasive
Species (February 3, 1999) directs federal agencies to "not authorize, fund, or carry out actions
that it believes are likely to cause or promote the introduction or spread of invasive species in the
United States or elsewhere." Despite their short-term erosion -control benefits, many exotic
species used in soil stabilization seed mixes are persistent once they are established, thereby
preventing the reestablishment of native vegetation. Many of these exotic plants are also
aggressive invaders of nearby natural areas, where they are capable of displacing
already -established native species. Therefore, we strongly recommend that only species native
to the natural communities within the project area be used in association with all aspects of this
project.
The Service appreciates -the opportunity to -comment on -this project. Please contact -Mr. Byron
Hamstead of our staff at 828/258-3939, Ext. 225, if you have any questions. In any future
correspondence concerning this project, please reference our Log Number 4-2-16-150.

'Recommended conservation measures to protect northern long-eared bats:
a. Conduct tree removal activities outside of the NLEB pup season (June 1 to July 31) and/or the
active season (April 1 to October 31). This will minimize impacts to pups at roosts not yet
identified.
b. Avoid clearing suitable spring staging and fall swarming habitat within a 5 -mile radius of known
or assumed NLEB hibernacula during the staging and swarming seasons (April 1 to -May 15 and
August 15to November 14; respectively).
c. Manage forests to ensure a continual supply of snags and other suitable maternity roost trees.
d. Conduct prescribed burns outside of the pup season (June 1 to July 3 1 ) and/or the active season
(April 1 to October 31). Avoid high-intensity burns (causing tree scorch higher than NLEB
roosting heights) during the summer maternity season to minimize direct impacts to NLEB.
e. Perform any bridge repair, retrofit, maintenance, and/or rehabilitation work outside of the NLEB
active season (April l to October 31) in areas where NLEB are known to roost on bridges or
where -such -use is -likely.
f. Do not use military smoke and obscurants within forested suitable NLEB habitat during the pup
season (June 1 to July 31) and/or the active season (April 1 to October 31).
g. Minimize use of herbicides and pesticides. If necessary, spot treatment is preferred over aerial
application.
h. Evaluate the use of outdoor lighting during the active season and seek to minimize light pollution
byangling lightsdownward or via other light minimization measures.
i, Participate in -actions -to -manages and reduce the impacts -of -white -nose syndrome on NLEB.
Actions needed to investigate and manage white -nose syndrome are described in a national plan
the Service developed in coordination with other state and federal agencies.
