3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The proposed multi-use trail, located in the Town of Apex in western Wake County, consists of approximately 1.8 miles of
asphalt, boardwalk, and concrete greenway trail. The trail will connect to an existing trail section east of Green Level Church
Road, and will progress west to connect to the American Tobacco Trail. Existing conditions in the project vicinity include
forested floodplain, sewer easements, and recent/ongoing residential development projects. Surrounding land use is primarily
residential and forest. Easements have been acquired for the length of the project.
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing 2.90 acres within project study area (includes portions of both JD
wetlands on the property: areas)
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
Within the study area
Perennial stream 103 linear feet
Intermittent stream 31 linear feet
' Total stream 134 linear feet
3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The greenway will add to the existing western Wake County trail network. This trail section will serve as a vital connection between
two existing trail sections. The completion of this greenway project will support bicycle and pedestrian travel between residential and
recreational centers creating a well-rounded integrated transportation system.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The Town of Cary proposes to construct an approximately 1.8-mile greenway along the White Oak Creek corridor which will connect
existing greenway at Green Level Church Road with the American Tobacco Trail. The trail will consist primarily of asphalt and
boardwalk, with a small section of concrete trail where necessary under the existing Green Level Church Road bridge over White Oak
Creek. The greenway will begin at the American Tobacco Trail as a 10-foot wide asphalt trail, and will progress west within Town
property, right-of-way, and easements. Seven boardwalks will be utilized over four tributary streams and several wetlands.
The location of the proposed trail avoids and minimizes impacts to jurisdictional resources to the maximum extent practicable. Where
feasible, boardwalk will be used to further avoid and minimize impacts to jurisdictional resources. The contractor selected for the
project will determine the equipment used on the project. Trail contractors generally use small paving machines and earth moving
equipment which results in smaller impacts to the project area than traditional highway construction equipment. Boardwalks will be
constructed utilizing a"top down" approach to avoid disturbance to the wetland ground surface during construction. Timber mats will
be utilized where temporary access roads are necessary within jurisdictional areas to minimize disturbance. Nationwide Permit 14
General Conditions will be included in the construction documents to direct contractor operations in and around wetlands.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The construction of the White Oak Creek greenway trail will result in no temporary or permanent stream impacts. Permanent
wetland impacts are 0.07 acre, and temporary wetland impacts necessary to construct the greenway are 0.19 acre. Buffer
impacts are perpendicular where possible. The following measures have been taken to avoid and minimize impacts to
jurisdictional waters:
Corridor Alignment — The horizontal corridor alignment was designed to avoid and minimize impacts to wetlands, streams,
and buffers to the extent practicable.
Trail Design — Sections of trail which cross wetlands and tributaries will be constructed using elevated boardwalk to avoid
impacts to these waters.
Minimize Stream Crossings - A detailed analysis was perFormed at all proposed stream crossings to identify the best crossing
location. This analysis included locating narrow crossing locations and, where feasible, crossing perpendicular to the stream.
Boardwalks will be used to cross streams.
Minimize Grading — The trail has been designed, to the extent possible, to match existing grade in order to minimize the
amount of fill, reducing the overall project footprint, and thus the impacts to jurisdictional resources.
Minimize Clearing — Where feasible, the trail has been located within cleared sewer easements, minimizing tree clearing in
regulated buffer areas and jurisdictional waters.
Stormwater Treatment — All ditches have been designed to outlet as diffuse flow.
Erosion Control — Silt fence will be installed along fill slopes and upstream of all wetlands and streams. Tree protection fence
will be utilized to demarcate buffer zones in order to maximize protection of riparian areas during construction.
Buffer impacts are perpendicular where possible and primarily result from the necessity to construct boardwalk to avoid
wetland impacts. The only non-perpendicular buffer impact, at permit drawing Site 8, is the result of the inability to create
sharp angles in boardwalk trail segments due to the nature of the material used.
Impervious surface in the buffer, especially Zone 1, is minimized to the extent practicable. Boardwalk approach slabs are
required at permit drawing Sites 1, 3, and 6. At permit drawing Site 1, riprap stabilization is required to slow water velocity due
to the steep 7% slope and drainage area of ditches on either side of the trail through a stream buffer. At permit drawing Site 3,
a proposed drainage ditch was designed to collect overland flow from the greenway and offsite areas. A riprap dissipator pad
was placed at the end of the ditch to reduce velocity and ensure diffuse flow into the buffer. The ditch was designed to
discharge outside both zones of the riparian buffer. At permit drawing Site 8, impervious surface is required in Zone 1 due to
the inability to place a boardwalk structure under a NCDOT bridge, the narrow available project area, and flood modeling
concerns associated with the elevated boardwalk in a FEMA regulated floodway. For these reasons, concrete trail is shown
under and adjacent to the bridge and Green Level Church road ROW.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
The contractor shall be responsible for minimizing impacts through construction techniques. The bid specifications will call
for, where possible, hand clearing, the use of construction mats and low impact machines in sensitive areas, and small paving
machines. Multiple construction entrances have been provided to minimize heavy equipment trip distances. Nationwide 14
General Conditions will be included in the construction specifications.

Habitat?
Ecological Engineering reviewed the USFWS list of federally protected species documented from Wake County and the
NC Natural Heritage Program database, conducted habitat evaluations, and surveyed for federally protected species for
which potentially suitable habitat was found within the study area. Conclusions were documented in the approved PCE
and submitted to the USFWS Raleigh Field Office. In a letter dated October 4, 2016, the USFWS concurred with "no
effect" determinations for all,species except the northern long-eared bat (NLEB), and noted that the NLEB is covered by
an existing agreement. The project is in compliance with the Endangered Species Act.

Program). No-rise Certifications were submitted and subsequently approved on 10/31/16 and a Conditional Letter of map
Revision (CLOMR) was approved on 2/20/17 for two proposed greenway crossings and development impacting three
FEMA detailed study areas.
8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination? NC Floodplain Mapping Program

TIP Project No. U-5530 IB
WBS Element 44111.1.F10
Federal Project No. STPDA-0503(32)
A. Project Description:
The Town of Cary (Town) proposes to constnict an appr•oximately 2.0-mile greenway
along the White Oak Creek stream corridor between Green Level Church Road and
Wimberly Road, connecting to the American Tobacco Trail. The project will connect the
Town's existing White Oak Creek Greenway with the American Tobacco Trail. Trail
sections will either follow existing utility easements or will be constructed within upland
and floodplain forests. Two spurs are proposed to provide connectivity to a subdivision
currently under construction, and an additional spur is proposed to connect Green Level
Church Road to the new greenway.
The trail is designed as a multi-use bicycling and pedestrian facility. The trail will be
constructed as a 10-foot wide asphalt and concrete path, with an aggregate base, and two-
foot wide shoulders on either side. 10-foot wide wooden boardwalks will be constructed
over wetlands and streams to limit environmental impacts. The trail will cross under
Green Level Church Road. The bridge � was recently replaced, and designed to
accommodate the firture greenway trail. There is a large berm under the bridge, and
vertical clearance is in excess of 9 feet (see photo on attachment 1).
The completion of this greenway project will be a very valuable recreational asset to both
Apex and Cary residents as it connects neighborhoods to parks and schools and gives the
community a scenic place to walk, bike, or run.
Please refer to the attached project location figures (attachments 1 and 2).
B. Purpose and Need:
In 2003 the Town of Cary developed a Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources Master
Plan. The Plan proposed to improve connectivity as well as provide for the health and
well-being of its residents. Since then the town's greenway network has grown to over 62
miles of trails creating an interconnected system weaving through t11e town of Caiy and
connecting to adjacent jurisdictions. The 2012 Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources
Master Plan Update has been adopted by the Town Council. To determine need the
planning effort included a citizen survey which concluded need for additional greenway
facilities. Based upon citizen needs a primary goal is "to provide citizens with a highly
fitnctional, safe, well-maintained greenway network that provides recreation;
transportation, and educational opportunities and wildlife benefits for the Town."
The purpose of the White Oak Greenway is to provide a connection within the Cary
Greenway network and on a larger regional/state-wade bases a significant missing piece
in the East Coast Greenway (ECG). The greenway and trails section of the 2012 Master
Plan shows the White Oak Creek Greenway as a proposed segment and part of the larger
Umstead Park to American Tobacco Trail greenway corridor. This corridor is also a part
of an even more extensive ECG. The ECG begins in Maine and extends along the east
coast to Florida. The White Oak Creek Greenway is one of the few remaining missing

ACTION CLASSIFICATION FORM
segments on the ECG within Nor[h Carolina. This trail is needed to further the
completion of the ECG, an important recreational and economic amenity on the east
coast and the interconnectivity of the Cary Greenway network. Additionally, the White
Oak Creek Greenway is part of a 14.06 mile long corridor that is within a quar[er mile of
17 pazks, 5 schools, and 99 neighborhoods, and intersects 13 other trails. This project
will put the town of Cary a step closer to connecting the highly regazded Umstead Pazk to
the American Tobacco Trail both of which are widely used by mm�ers and cyclists for
both commuting, and recreational enjoyment. The Town of Cary Comprehensive
Pedestrian Plan (2007) also points out that Cary's younger demographic will demand
and need more pedestrian facilities such as greenways for recreation and exercise, safer
routes to school, and more connections to pazks and librazies.

D. Special Project Information:
Threatened and Endangered Species
As of Apri12, 2015, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists five
federally protected species for Wake County (Table 1). A brief description of each
species' habitat requirements follows, along with the biological conclusion rendered
based on survey results in the study area. Habitat requirements for each species are based
on the current best available information from referenced literature and/or USFWS.

Red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borenlis)
Habitat Description: The red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) typically occupies open,
mature stands of southern pines, particularly longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), for foraging
and nesting/roosting habitat. The RCW excavates cavities for nesting and roosting in
living pine trees, aged 60 years or older, which are contiguous with pine stands at least
30 years of age to provide foraging habitat. The foraging range of the RCW is normally
no more than 0.5 miles.
A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area was performed in August 2014 using
2013 color aerials. Areas which appeared to be dominated by pine trees were identified
as potentially suitable habitat for red-cockaded woodpeckers and targeted for field
survey. Field surveys of the study area were conducted on August 21, 2014 and
September 3, 2014. Additionally, a review of the NCNHI' database on September 21,
2014 revealed no known occurrences of this species �within 1 mile of the project study
area.
Visual inspection of the project area determined that areas dominated by pine do not
constitute suitable nesting or foraging habitat. No pine stands appear old enough to serve
as nesting habitat. Pine stands are entirely loblolly (Pinus taeda), and potentially suitable
foraging habitat quality is degraded by dense spacing of trees, tall, dense understory, and
lack of herbaceous ground cover. All areas of potentially suitable habitat were traversed
on foot by two biologists, and no areas of suitable habitat were identiiied in the field.

NCDOT PROGRAMMATIC CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION (PCE)
ACTION CLASSIFICATION FORM
Due to the lack of suitable habitat, the lack of known occun•ences within 1 mile of the
study area, and the minimal impact anticipated for this project, it has been determined
that this project will not affect this species.
Michaux's Sumac (Rlaus michauxia�
Habitat Description: Michaux's sumac, endemic to the inner Coastal Plain and lower
Piedmont, grows in sandy or rocky, open, upland woods on acidic or circumneutral, well-
drained sands or sandy loam soils with low cation exchange capacities. The species is
also found on sandy or submesic loamy swales and depressions in the fall line Sandhills
region as well as in openings along the rim of Carolina bays; maintained railroad,
roadside, power line, and utility rights-of-way; areas where forest canopies have been
opened up by blowdowns and/or storm damage; small wildlife food plots; abandoned
building sites; under sparse to moderately dense pine or pine/hardwood canopies; and in
and along edges of other artificially maintained clearings undergoing nahiral succession.
In the central Piedmont, it occurs on clayey soils derived from mafic rocks. The plant is
shade intolerant and, therefoc•e, grows best where disturbance (e.g., mowing, clearing,
grazing, periodic fire) maintains its open habitat.
A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area was performed in September, 2014
using 2013 color aerials. Areas with an open canopy such as utility line rights-of-way,
old road beds, forest clearings, and road edges were identified as potentially suitable
habitat for Michaux's sumac and targeted for field survey. A field survey of the project
shtdy area was conducted on August 21 and September 3, 2014. Additionally, a review of
the NCNHP database on September 21, 2014 revealed no known occurrences of this
species within 1 mile of the project shidy area.
Visual inspection ofthe project area determined that suitable habitat is limited. The
majority of the open canopy areas identified by desktop assessment were observed to be
generally too moist to support this species. All areas of potentially suitable habitat were
traversed on foot by two biologists in search of Michaux's sumac, with the result that no
specimens were located. Due to the lack of observed specimens, limited amounts of
suitable habitat, the lack of known occurrences within 1 mile of the study area, and the
minimal impact anticipated for this project, it has been determined that this project will
not affect this species.
Dwarf Wedgemussel (Alasmidonta hetero�ton)
Habitat Description: In North Carolina, the dwarf wedgemussel is known from the
Neuse and Tar River drainages. The mussel inhabits creek and river areas with a slow to
moderate current and sand, gravel, or firm silt bottoms. Water in these areas must be well
oxygenated. Stream banks in these areas are generally stable with extensive root systems
holding soils in place. Shells of the dwarf wedgemussel can be distinguished from other
mussels in the area by the presence of two lateral teeth in the right valve.
The study area is located in the Cape Fear River basin which is not known to support this
species. A review of the NCNHP database on September 21, 2014 revealed no known
occurrences of this species within 1 mile of the project st�idy area. The closest known
population is located in the Neuse river basin approximately 18 miles from the study
area. A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area was performed in September
2014 using 2013 color aerials. One stream in the shidy area, a tributary to White Oak
Creek, was identified as potentially large enough to support mussels and was targeted for
a cursory field survey. Field surveys of the project study area were conducted on August
21, 2014 and September 3, 2014. No live mussels, shells, or middens were observed
during cursory investigations of tributaries within the study area.

Northern long-eared bat
Habitat Description: In North Carolina, the Northern long-eared bat (NLEB) occurs in
the mountains, with scattered records in the Piedmont and coastal plain. In western
North Carolina, NLEB spend winter hibernating in caves and mines. Since this species is
not known to be a long-distance migrant, and caves and subterranean mines are
extremely rare in eastern North Carolina, it is uncertain whether or where NLEB
hibernate in eastern North Carolina. During the summer, NLEB roost singly or in
colonies underneath bark, in cavities, or in crevices of both live and dead trees (typically
>3 inches dbh). Males and non-reproductive females may also roost in cooler places, like
caves and mines. This bat also been found, rarely, roosting in structures like barns and
sheds, under eaves of buildings, behind window shutters, in bridges, and in bat houses.
Foraging occurs on forested hillsides and ridges, and occasionally over forest clearings,
over water, and along tree-lined corridors. Mature forests may be an important habitat
type for foraging.
The US Fish and Wildlife Service has developed a programmatic biological opinion
(PBO) in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the US Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE), and NCDOT for the NLEB in eastern North Carolina.
The PBO covers the entu•e NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT
projects and activities. The programmatic determination for NLEB for the NCDOT
program in Divisions 1-8 is "May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect." The PBO will
provide incidental take coverage for NLEB and will ensure compliance with Section 7 of
the Endangered Species Act for five years for all NCDOT projects with a federal nexus
in Divisions 1-8, which includes Walce County, where the White Oa1c Creek Greenway
(TIP U-5530 IB) is located.
BALD AND GOLDEN EAGLE PROTECTION ACT
Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)
Habitat Description: Habitat for the bald eagle primarily consists of mahire forest in
proximity to large bodies of open water for foraging. Large dominant trees are utilized
for nesting sites, typically within 1.0 mile of open water.
A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area, as well as the area within a
1.13-mile radius (1.0 mile plus 660 feet) of the project limits, was performed in
September 2014 using 2013 color aerials. There are no water bodies large enough and
sufficiently open to be considered a potential feeding source within this radius. Because
there was no potentially suitable foraging habitat adjacent to the study area, no survey of
the project study area was conducted. A review of the NCNHP database on September
21, 2014 revealed no known occurrences of this species within 1.13 miles of the project
study area.
Due to the lack of suitable foraging habitat, the lack of known occun-ences, and the
minimal impact anticipated for this project, it has been determined that this project will
not affect this species.
National Historic Preservation Act
This project has been reviewed by the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources,
State Historic Preservation Office (NCSHPO). In their response letter dated April 10,
2015, they have reviewed the project and are aware of no historic resources which would

Right of Way/Easements
Much of the project is on Town of Cary property or within the existing right-of-way and
a small segment is within NCDOT property however the White Oak Creek Greenway
will impact 5 private property owners.
The largest impact is on the Toll Brothers property where a planned development is
already being constructed. A permanent greenway easement and a wider temporary
construction easement will be obtained through this section as part of their development
plans with the Town of Apex.
On two of the remaining properties the permanent greenway easements will be located
inside of an existing sewer easement.
All permanent easements are located in open space typically within the 100 year flood
boundaries or in wetland areas. The same is true for the temporary construction
easements and neither easement will affect any permanent structures. The Town of Cary
will negotiate the acquisition of all necessary permanent greenway and temporary
construction easements for the project, in accordance with the Uniform Act.

Dear Mr. Cooper:
This letter is in response to your letter of September 26, 2016 which provided the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service) with the biologicai conclusions of the North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration for federally threatened and
endangered species potentially affected by the construction of the White Oak Creek Greenway (TIP
No. U-5530 IB) in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. The following comments are provided in
accordance with Section 7 af the Endangered, Species Act (ESA) of i973, as amended (16 U.S.C.
1531-1543).
The biologica) conclusion for all federally threatened and endangered species listed in Wake County,
with the exception of the northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis}, is "no effect". Based on
the submitted information and other available information, the Secvice concurs with this conclusion.
The 6iolagical conciusian for the northern long-eared bat is "may affect, likely to adversely affect".
However, formal Section 7 consultation was previously concluded for this species, and a
programmatic biological opinion was issued by the Service to provide incidental take coverage for
the species in NCDOT Divisions 1-8.
We believe that the requirements of Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA have been satisfied for this project.
We remind you that obligations under Section 7 consult�tion 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 in this review; (2) th'ss action is subsequently modifted in a
manner that was not considered in this review; or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat
determined that may be affected by this identified action. The Service appreciates the opportunity to
review this project. If you have any questions regarding our response, please contact Mr. Gary
Jordan at (919) 856-4520 (Ext. 32).
Sincerely,
�- Pete Benjamin
