Three ponds (approximately 2.16 acres) are located in the study area (Figure 3). These
ponds consist of artificially excavated pits that are sustained by surface water runoff and
high groundwater levels. All three ponds have surface water connection to jurisdictional
stream features within the study area.
There are no designated Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters
(HQW), or water supply watersheds (WS-I or WS-II) within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area. There are no designated anadromous fish waters or Primary Nursery Areas
(PNA) present in the study area. Muddy Creek and its tributaries do not appear on the
North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list of impaired waters. There are no water bodies
listed on the North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area.
4.0 BIOTIC RESOURCES
4.1 Terrestrial Communities
Five terrestrial communities were identified in the study area. These communities
include: maintainedldisturbed, Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype), Dry-
Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest, Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest, and
Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest. Figure 4 shows the location and extent of these
terrestrial communities in the study area. A brief description of each community type
follows. Scientific names of all species identified are included in Appendix B.
4.1.1 Maintained/Disturbed
Maintained/disturbed areas occur along roadside and railroad shoulders, residential and
commercial lawns, agricultural fields, and small areas of successional forests throughout
the length of the study area. The vegetation in this community is comprised of low
growing grasses and herbs, shrubs, and sparse canopy in lawn and roadside areas; planted
crops and native grasses within agricultural areas; and successional forested areas
consisting of canopies of monoculture pine or decreased hardwood species diversity with
dense hardwood understory. Herbaceous and woody vine vegetation observed includes
fescue, clover, wild onion, poison ivy, trumpet creeper, kudzu, goldenrod, ironweed, dog
fennel, Japanese honeysuckle, Japanese stilt grass, Chinese lespedeza, and dandelion.
Canopy species includes loblolly pine, sweetgum, winged elm, Tree-of-Heaven, mimosa,
and red maple, with flowering dogwood, persimmon, and Chinese privet, red maple,
sweetgum, multiflora rose, roundleaf greenbrier and blackberry in the understory.
Wetlands WA, WF, WH, WI, WJ, WK, WM, WN, WO, WP, WT, WLJ, WW, WY, WZ,
WAA, and WAD occur within this community.
4.1.2 Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype)
Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forests (Piedmont Subtype) occur along lower slopes, steep
north-facing slopes, ravines, and occasionally well-drained small stream bottoms on
acidic soils. This community is found throughout Piedmont and may grade into a
Piedmont/Low Mountain Forest or Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest at lower

3.2 Water Resources
Water resources in the study area are part of the Cape Fear River basin [U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) Hydrologic Unit 03030003]. Ten streams were identified in the study
area (Table 2). The locations of these streams are shown on Figures 3-1 through 3-8.
The physical characteristics of these streams are provided in Table 3.
2 November 2016
Natural Resources Technical Report TIP U-3400, Guilford and Randolph Counties, N.C.
Three ponds (approximately 2.16 acres) are located in the study area (Figure 3). These
ponds consist of artificially excavated pits that are sustained by surface water runoff and
high groundwater levels. All three ponds have surface water connection to jurisdictional
stream features within the study area.
There are no designated Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters
(HQW), or water supply watersheds (WS-I or WS-II) within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area. There are no designated anadromous fish waters or Primary Nursery Areas
(PNA) present in the study area. Muddy Creek and its tributaries do not appear on the
North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list of impaired waters. There are no water bodies
listed on the North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area.
4.0 BIOTIC RESOURCES
4.1 Terrestrial Communities
Five terrestrial communities were identified in the study area. These communities
include: maintainedldisturbed, Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype), Dry-
Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest, Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest, and
Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest. Figure 4 shows the location and extent of these
terrestrial communities in the study area. A brief description of each community type
follows. Scientific names of all species identified are included in Appendix B.
4.1.1 Maintained/Disturbed
Maintained/disturbed areas occur along roadside and railroad shoulders, residential and
commercial lawns, agricultural fields, and small areas of successional forests throughout
the length of the study area. The vegetation in this community is comprised of low
growing grasses and herbs, shrubs, and sparse canopy in lawn and roadside areas; planted
crops and native grasses within agricultural areas; and successional forested areas
consisting of canopies of monoculture pine or decreased hardwood species diversity with
dense hardwood understory. Herbaceous and woody vine vegetation observed includes
fescue, clover, wild onion, poison ivy, trumpet creeper, kudzu, goldenrod, ironweed, dog
fennel, Japanese honeysuckle, Japanese stilt grass, Chinese lespedeza, and dandelion.
Canopy species includes loblolly pine, sweetgum, winged elm, Tree-of-Heaven, mimosa,
and red maple, with flowering dogwood, persimmon, and Chinese privet, red maple,
sweetgum, multiflora rose, roundleaf greenbrier and blackberry in the understory.
Wetlands WA, WF, WH, WI, WJ, WK, WM, WN, WO, WP, WT, WLJ, WW, WY, WZ,
WAA, and WAD occur within this community.
4.1.2 Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype)
Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forests (Piedmont Subtype) occur along lower slopes, steep
north-facing slopes, ravines, and occasionally well-drained small stream bottoms on
acidic soils. This community is found throughout Piedmont and may grade into a
Piedmont/Low Mountain Forest or Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest at lower
4 November 2016

elevations. Dominant species in this community include American beech, northern red
oak, red maple, and sweetgum in the overstory, and flowering dogwood, hop hornbeam,
sweetgum, red maple, Japanese honeysuckle, grape, and poison ivy in the understory and
ground layers. Wetlands WP, WQ, WR, WAB, and WAC occur within this community.
4.1.3 Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest
The Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory community occurs along mid slopes, low ridges, upland
flats and other dry-mesic upland areas on acidic soils within the study area. This
community is found throughout the Piedmont and Coastal Plain and may occur between
the Dry Oak-Hickory Forest and Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype).
White oak, laurel oak, willow oak, black jack oak, mockernut hickory, pignut hickory,
shagbark hickory, and sweetgum dominate the overstory canopy, while red maple,
sweetgum, black gum, gooseberry, and American holly occur in the understory.
Wetlands WB, WC, WD, WE, and WG occur within this community.
4.1.4 Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest
The Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest occurs on rivers and stream floodplains
where separate fluvial landforms and associated vegetation zones are too small to
distinguish in the Piedmont and lower elevation mountain valleys. This community may
grade into various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry upland forests. Dominant species in this
community include sycamore, green ash, sweet gum, American elm, red maple in the
overstory, and red maple, green ash, southern sugar maple, black walnut and Japanese
stilt grass in the understory and ground layers. Wetlands WL and WS occur entirely
within this community. Wetlands WK and WT also partially occur within this
community.
4.1.5 Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest
The Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest occurs on floodplain ridges and terraces
other than active levees adjacent to the river channel. This community may grade to
various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry forest communities. Dominant species in this
community include loblolly pine, American elm, willow oak, red maple, and green ash in
the overstory, and red maple, grape, poison ivy, and Japanese stilt grass in the understory
and ground layers. Wetland WV and WX occur within this community.
4.1.6 Terrestrial Community Impacts
Terrestrial communities in the study area may be impacted by project construction
because of grading and paving of portions of the study area. At this time, decisions
regarding the final alignment and design of the proposed road widening have not been
made. Therefore, community data are presented in the context of total coverage of each
type within the study area (Table 4). Once a final alignment and preliminary design have
been determined, probable impacts to each community type will be calculated.

terrestrial communities located in the study area include the rough green snake,
copperhead, rat snake, eastern box turtle, eastern fence lizard, pickerel frog*, American
toad, gray treefrog, six-lined race runner*, and five-lined skink.
4.3 Aquatic Communities
The aquatic communities in the study area consists of a large perennial stream Muddy
Creek and its smaller perennial and intermittent unnamed tributaries. The streams and
ponds within the project area could support various types of fish such as shiners, sunfish,
darters, and carp*. Reptile and amphibian species likely supported by the stream and
pond systems include the northern watersnake, two lined salamander*, and snapping
turtle*.
4.4 Invasive Species
Eight species from the NCDOT Invasive Exotic Plant List for North Carolina were found
to occur in the study area. The species identified were kudzu (Threat), tree-of-heaven
(Threat), multiflora rose (Threat), Japanese stilt grass (Threat), mimosa (Moderate

4.0 BIOTIC RESOURCES
4.1 Terrestrial Communities
Five terrestrial communities were identified in the study area. These communities
include: maintainedldisturbed, Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype), Dry-
Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest, Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest, and
Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest. Figure 4 shows the location and extent of these
terrestrial communities in the study area. A brief description of each community type
follows. Scientific names of all species identified are included in Appendix B.
4.1.1 Maintained/Disturbed
Maintained/disturbed areas occur along roadside and railroad shoulders, residential and
commercial lawns, agricultural fields, and small areas of successional forests throughout
the length of the study area. The vegetation in this community is comprised of low
growing grasses and herbs, shrubs, and sparse canopy in lawn and roadside areas; planted
crops and native grasses within agricultural areas; and successional forested areas
consisting of canopies of monoculture pine or decreased hardwood species diversity with
dense hardwood understory. Herbaceous and woody vine vegetation observed includes
fescue, clover, wild onion, poison ivy, trumpet creeper, kudzu, goldenrod, ironweed, dog
fennel, Japanese honeysuckle, Japanese stilt grass, Chinese lespedeza, and dandelion.
Canopy species includes loblolly pine, sweetgum, winged elm, Tree-of-Heaven, mimosa,
and red maple, with flowering dogwood, persimmon, and Chinese privet, red maple,
sweetgum, multiflora rose, roundleaf greenbrier and blackberry in the understory.

elevations. Dominant species in this community include American beech, northern red
oak, red maple, and sweetgum in the overstory, and flowering dogwood, hop hornbeam,
sweetgum, red maple, Japanese honeysuckle, grape, and poison ivy in the understory and
ground layers. Wetlands WP, WQ, WR, WAB, and WAC occur within this community.
4.1.3 Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest
The Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory community occurs along mid slopes, low ridges, upland
flats and other dry-mesic upland areas on acidic soils within the study area. This
community is found throughout the Piedmont and Coastal Plain and may occur between
the Dry Oak-Hickory Forest and Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype).
White oak, laurel oak, willow oak, black jack oak, mockernut hickory, pignut hickory,
shagbark hickory, and sweetgum dominate the overstory canopy, while red maple,
sweetgum, black gum, gooseberry, and American holly occur in the understory.
Wetlands WB, WC, WD, WE, and WG occur within this community.
4.1.4 Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest
The Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest occurs on rivers and stream floodplains
where separate fluvial landforms and associated vegetation zones are too small to
distinguish in the Piedmont and lower elevation mountain valleys. This community may
grade into various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry upland forests. Dominant species in this
community include sycamore, green ash, sweet gum, American elm, red maple in the
overstory, and red maple, green ash, southern sugar maple, black walnut and Japanese
stilt grass in the understory and ground layers. Wetlands WL and WS occur entirely
within this community. Wetlands WK and WT also partially occur within this
community.
4.1.5 Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest
The Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest occurs on floodplain ridges and terraces
other than active levees adjacent to the river channel. This community may grade to
various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry forest communities. Dominant species in this
community include loblolly pine, American elm, willow oak, red maple, and green ash in
the overstory, and red maple, grape, poison ivy, and Japanese stilt grass in the understory
and ground layers. Wetland WV and WX occur within this community.
4.1.6 Terrestrial Community Impacts
Terrestrial communities in the study area may be impacted by project construction
because of grading and paving of portions of the study area. At this time, decisions
regarding the final alignment and design of the proposed road widening have not been
made. Therefore, community data are presented in the context of total coverage of each
type within the study area (Table 4). Once a final alignment and preliminary design have
been determined, probable impacts to each community type will be calculated.

terrestrial communities located in the study area include the rough green snake,
copperhead, rat snake, eastern box turtle, eastern fence lizard, pickerel frog*, American
toad, gray treefrog, six-lined race runner*, and five-lined skink.
4.3 Aquatic Communities
The aquatic communities in the study area consists of a large perennial stream Muddy
Creek and its smaller perennial and intermittent unnamed tributaries. The streams and
ponds within the project area could support various types of fish such as shiners, sunfish,
darters, and carp*. Reptile and amphibian species likely supported by the stream and
pond systems include the northern watersnake, two lined salamander*, and snapping
turtle*.
4.4 Invasive Species
Eight species from the NCDOT Invasive Exotic Plant List for North Carolina were found
to occur in the study area. The species identified were kudzu (Threat), tree-of-heaven
(Threat), multiflora rose (Threat), Japanese stilt grass (Threat), mimosa (Moderate

other than active levees adjacent to the river channel. This community may grade to
various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry forest communities. Dominant species in this
community include loblolly pine, American elm, willow oak, red maple, and green ash in
the overstory, and red maple, grape, poison ivy, and Japanese stilt grass in the understory
and ground layers. Wetland WV and WX occur within this community.
4.1.6 Terrestrial Community Impacts
Terrestrial communities in the study area may be impacted by project construction
because of grading and paving of portions of the study area. At this time, decisions
regarding the final alignment and design of the proposed road widening have not been
made. Therefore, community data are presented in the context of total coverage of each
type within the study area (Table 4). Once a final alignment and preliminary design have
been determined, probable impacts to each community type will be calculated.

Three ponds (approximately 2.16 acres) are located in the study area (Figure 3). These
ponds consist of artificially excavated pits that are sustained by surface water runoff and
high groundwater levels. All three ponds have surface water connection to jurisdictional
stream features within the study area.
There are no designated Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters
(HQW), or water supply watersheds (WS-I or WS-II) within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area. There are no designated anadromous fish waters or Primary Nursery Areas
(PNA) present in the study area. Muddy Creek and its tributaries do not appear on the
North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list of impaired waters. There are no water bodies
listed on the North Carolina 2014 Fina1303(d) list within 1.0 mile downstream of the
study area.
4.0 BIOTIC RESOURCES
4.1 Terrestrial Communities
Five terrestrial communities were identified in the study area. These communities
include: maintainedldisturbed, Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype), Dry-
Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest, Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest, and
Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest. Figure 4 shows the location and extent of these
terrestrial communities in the study area. A brief description of each community type
follows. Scientific names of all species identified are included in Appendix B.
4.1.1 Maintained/Disturbed
Maintained/disturbed areas occur along roadside and railroad shoulders, residential and
commercial lawns, agricultural fields, and small areas of successional forests throughout
the length of the study area. The vegetation in this community is comprised of low
growing grasses and herbs, shrubs, and sparse canopy in lawn and roadside areas; planted
crops and native grasses within agricultural areas; and successional forested areas
consisting of canopies of monoculture pine or decreased hardwood species diversity with
dense hardwood understory. Herbaceous and woody vine vegetation observed includes
fescue, clover, wild onion, poison ivy, trumpet creeper, kudzu, goldenrod, ironweed, dog
fennel, Japanese honeysuckle, Japanese stilt grass, Chinese lespedeza, and dandelion.
Canopy species includes loblolly pine, sweetgum, winged elm, Tree-of-Heaven, mimosa,
and red maple, with flowering dogwood, persimmon, and Chinese privet, red maple,
sweetgum, multiflora rose, roundleaf greenbrier and blackberry in the understory.
Wetlands WA, WF, WH, WI, WJ, WK, WM, WN, WO, WP, WT, WLJ, WW, WY, WZ,
WAA, and WAD occur within this community.
4.1.2 Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype)
Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forests (Piedmont Subtype) occur along lower slopes, steep
north-facing slopes, ravines, and occasionally well-drained small stream bottoms on
acidic soils. This community is found throughout Piedmont and may grade into a
Piedmont/Low Mountain Forest or Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest at lower

elevations. Dominant species in this community include American beech, northern red
oak, red maple, and sweetgum in the overstory, and flowering dogwood, hop hornbeam,
sweetgum, red maple, Japanese honeysuckle, grape, and poison ivy in the understory and
ground layers. Wetlands WP, WQ, WR, WAB, and WAC occur within this community.
4.1.3 Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory Forest
The Dry-Mesic Oak-Hickory community occurs along mid slopes, low ridges, upland
flats and other dry-mesic upland areas on acidic soils within the study area. This
community is found throughout the Piedmont and Coastal Plain and may occur between
the Dry Oak-Hickory Forest and Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype).
White oak, laurel oak, willow oak, black jack oak, mockernut hickory, pignut hickory,
shagbark hickory, and sweetgum dominate the overstory canopy, while red maple,
sweetgum, black gum, gooseberry, and American holly occur in the understory.
Wetlands WB, WC, WD, WE, and WG occur within this community.
4.1.4 Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest
The Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest occurs on rivers and stream floodplains
where separate fluvial landforms and associated vegetation zones are too small to
distinguish in the Piedmont and lower elevation mountain valleys. This community may
grade into various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry upland forests. Dominant species in this
community include sycamore, green ash, sweet gum, American elm, red maple in the
overstory, and red maple, green ash, southern sugar maple, black walnut and Japanese
stilt grass in the understory and ground layers. Wetlands WL and WS occur entirely
within this community. Wetlands WK and WT also partially occur within this
community.
4.1.5 Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest
The Piedmont/Mountain Bottomland Forest occurs on floodplain ridges and terraces
other than active levees adjacent to the river channel. This community may grade to
various mesic, dry-mesic, or dry forest communities. Dominant species in this
community include loblolly pine, American elm, willow oak, red maple, and green ash in
the overstory, and red maple, grape, poison ivy, and Japanese stilt grass in the understory
and ground layers. Wetland WV and WX occur within this community.
4.1.6 Terrestrial Community Impacts
Terrestrial communities in the study area may be impacted by project construction
because of grading and paving of portions of the study area. At this time, decisions
regarding the final alignment and design of the proposed road widening have not been
made. Therefore, community data are presented in the context of total coverage of each
type within the study area (Table 4). Once a final alignment and preliminary design have
been determined, probable impacts to each community type will be calculated.

5.2 Clean Water Act Permits
The proposed project has been designated as a minimum criteria determination
checklist for the purposes of the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)
documentation. As a result, a Nationwide Permit (N WP) 23 will likely be applicable.
8 November 2016
Natural Resources Technical Report TIP U-3400, Guilford and Randolph Counties, N.C.
A NWP No. 33 may also apply for temporary construction activities such as stream
dewatering, work bridges, or temporary causeways. The USACE holds the final
discretion as to what permit will be required to authorize project construction. If a
Section 404 permit is required, then a Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC)
from the NCDWR will be needed.
5.3 Coastal Area Management Act Areas of Environmental Concern
Neither Guilford nor Randolph Counties are designated as coastal counties in North
Carolina; therefore, Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) regulations do not apply.
5.4 Construction Moratoria
There have been no construction moratoria requested for the proj ect at this time. Should
future moratoria be requested by a commenting agencies, a copy of the letter will be
included in the appendix of the final NRTR.

Schweinitz's sunflower
USFWS Optimal Survey Window: late August-October
Habitat Description: Schweinitz's sunflower is endemic to the Piedmont of North and
South Carolina. The few sites where this rhizomatous perennial herb occurs in
relatively natural vegetation are found in Xeric Hardpan Forests. The species is
also found along roadside rights-of-way, maintained power lines and other utility
rights-of-way, edges of thickets and old pastures, clearings and edges of upland
oak-pine-hickory woods and Piedmont longleaf pine forests, and other sunny or
semi-sunny habitats where disturbances (e.g., mowing, clearing, grazing, blow
downs, storms, frequent fire) help create open ar partially open areas for sunlight.
It is intolerant of full shade and excessive coinpetition from other vegetation.
Schweinitz's sunflower occurs in a variety of soil series, including Badin, Cecil,
Cid, Enon, Gaston, Georgeville, Iredell, Mecklenburg, Misenheimer, Secrest,
Tatum, Uwharrie, and Zion, among others. It is generally found growing on
shallow sandy soils with high gravel content; shallow, poor, clayey hardpans; or
shallow rocky soils, especially those derived from mafic rocks.
Biological Conclusion:
Suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower is present in the study area along
roadside shoulders and utility easements. Field investigations were conducted by
SEPI biologists throughout areas of suitable habitat on September 27, 28, and 29,
2016. No individuals of Schweinitz's sunflower were observed. A review of
10 November 2016
Natural Resources Technical Report TIP U-3400, Guilford and Randolph Counties, N.C.
NCNHP records on September 13, 2016, indicates no known occurrences within
1.0 mile of the study area.
Small whorled pogonia
USFWS Optimal Survey Window: mid-May-early July
Habitat Description: Small whorled pogonia occurs in young as well as maturing (second
to third successional growth) mixed-deciduous or mixed-deciduous/coniferous
forests. It does not appear to exhibit strong affinities for a particular aspect, soil
type, or underlying geologic substrate. In North Carolina, the perennial orchid is
typically found in open, dry deciduous woods and is often associated with white
pine and rhododendron. The species may also be found on dry, rocky, wooded
slopes; moist slopes; ravines lacking stream channels; or slope bases near braided
channels of vernal streams. The orchid, often limited by shade, requires small
light gaps or canopy breaks, and typically grows under canopies that are relatively
open or near features like logging roads or streams that create long-persisting
breaks in the forest canopy.
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for small whorled pogonia in the form of a small tract of mixed-
deciduous forest is present along Swathmore Road. Field investigations were
conducted by SEPI biologists throughout areas of suitable habitat on July 21,
2016. No individuals of small whorled pogonia were observed. A review of
NCNHP records on September 13, 2016, indicates no known occurrences within
0 mile of the study area.
Cape Fear shiner
USFWS Recommended Survey Window: April-June (tributaries); year round (large
rivers)
Habitat Description: The Cape Fear shiner is known only from the Cape Fear River
watershed. In general, habitat occurs in streams with clean gravel, cobble, or
boulder substrates. It is most often observed inhabiting slow pools, riffles, and
slow runs associated with water willow (Justicia americana) beds, which it uses
for cover. Juveniles can be found inhabiting slackwater, among large rock
outcrops and in flooded side channels and pools. Spawning occurs May through
June, when water temperatures reach 66 degrees Fahrenheit.
Biological Conclusion: Unresolved
Suitable habitat for the Cape Fear shiner is present in the study area in areas of
Muddy Creek and its tributaries. Field investigations will be required by NCDOT
biologists throughout areas of suitable habitat. A review of NCNHP records on
September 13, 2016, indicates no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study
area.

Northern Long-eared Bat
The US Fish and Wildlife Service has developed a programmatic biological opinion
(PBO) in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), USACE, and
NCDOT for the northern long-eared bat (NLEB) in eastern North Carolina. The PBO
covers the entire NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT projects and
activities. The programmatic determination for NLEB for the NCDOT program is "May
Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect." The PBO provides 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
Guilford and Randolph Counties, where TIP U-3400 is located.

Instructions for wmpletion ot worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by detertnining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terzain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteris[ic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
chazacteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
chazacteristic cannot be evalua[ed due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in [he scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment sec[ion. Where there aze obvious changes in the character of a sheam under review (e.g., the slream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the sueam may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a sVeam reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of ]00 representing a sheam of the

Definition of Vegetation Strata:
Four Vegetation Strata:
Tree stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding vines, 3 in.
(7.6 cm) or more in diameter at breast height (DBH), regardless
of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.

of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.
Shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 3 to 20 ft (1 to 6 m) in height.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
including herbaceous vines, regardless of size, and woody
species, except woody vines, less than approximately 3 ft (1 m)
in height.

(7.6 cm) or more in diameter at breast height (DBH), regardless
of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.
Shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 3 to 20 ft (1 to 6 m) in height.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
including herbaceous vines, regardless of size, and woody
species, except woody vines, less than approximately 3 ft (1 m)
in height.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines, regardless of

Definition of Vegetation Strata:
Four Vegetation Strata:
Tree stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding vines, 3 in.
(7.6 cm) or more in diameter at breast height (DBH), regardless
of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.
Shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 3 to 20 ft (1 to 6 m) in height.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
including herbaceous vines, regardless of size, and woody
species, except woody vines, less than approximately 3 ft (1 m)
in height.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines, regardless of

Definition of Vegetation Strata:
Four Vegetation Strata:
Tree stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding vines, 3 in.
(7.6 cm) or more in diameter at breast height (DBH), regardless
of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.
Shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 3 to 20 ft (1 to 6 m) in height.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
including herbaceous vines, regardless of size, and woody
species, except woody vines, less than approximately 3 ft (1 m)
in height.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines, regardless of

Definition of Vegetation Strata:
Four Vegetation Strata:
Tree stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding vines, 3 in.
(7.6 cm) or more in diameter at breast height (DBH), regardless
of height.
Sapling/shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding
vines, less than 3 in. DBH and greater than 3.28 ft(1 m) tall.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
regardless of size, and all other plants less than 3.28 ft tall.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines greater than 3.28 ft
in height.
Five Vegetation Strata:
Tree - Waody plants, excluding woody vines, approximately 20
ft (6 m) or more in height and 3 in. (7.6 cm) or larger in
diameter at breast height (DBH).
Sapling stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 20 ft (6 m) or more in height and less than
3 in. (7.6 cm) DBH.
Shrub stratum - Consists of woody plants, excluding woody
vines, approximately 3 to 20 ft (1 to 6 m) in height.
Herb stratum - Consists of all herbaceous (non-woody) plants,
including herbaceous vines, regardless of size, and woody
species, except woody vines, less than approximately 3 ft (1 m)
in height.
Woody vines - Consists of all woody vines, regardless of
height.
