Special Conditions:
1. In order to compensate for impacts associated with this permit, mitigation shall be provided in accordance with
the provisions outlined on the most recent version of the attached Compensatory Mitigation Responsibility
Transfer Form. The requirements of this form, including any special conditions listed on this form, are hereby
incorporated as special conditions of this permit authorization.
2. This USACE permit does not authorize you to take a threatened or endangered species, in particular, the
Northern Long-eared Bat (NLEB) (Myotis septentrionalis). In order to legally take a listed species, you must have
separate authorization under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) (e.g., a Biological Opinion (BO) under the ESA,
Section 7, with "incidental take" provisions with which you must comply). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's
(USFWS's) Programmatic BO titled "Northern Long-eared Bat (NLEB) Programmatic Biological Opinion for
North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Activities in Eastern North Carolina (Divisions 1-8),"
dated March 25, 2015, and adopted on Apri110, 2015, contains mandatory terms and conditions to implement the
reasonable and prudent measures that are associated with "incidental take" that are specified in the BO. Your
authorization under this USACE permit is conditioned upon your compliance with all the mandatory terms and
conditions (incorporated by reference into this permit) associated with incidental take of the BO. Failure to comply
with the terms and conditions associated with incidental take of the BO, where a take of the listed species occurs,
would constitute an unauthorized take, and would also constitute non-compliance with your USACE permit. The
USFWS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with the terms and conditions of its BO and with the
ESA.

Your work is authorized by the above referenced permit provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with the attached
conditions and your submitted application and attached information dated Ol/08/2018. Any violation of the attached
conditions or deviation from your submitted plans may subject the permittee to a stop work order, a restoration order, a Class
I administrative penalty, and/or appropriate legal action.
This verification will remain valid until the expiration date identified below unless the nationwide authorization is modified,
suspended or revoked. If, prior to the expiration date identified below, the nationwide permit authorization is reissued and/or
modified, this verification will remain valid until the expiration date identified below, provided it complies with all requirements of
the modified nationwide permit. If the nationwide permit authorization expires or is suspended, revoked, or is modified, such that the
activiry would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit, activities which have commenced (i.e., are
under construction) or are under contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit, will remain authorized provided the
activiry is completed within twelve months of the date of the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless
discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend or revoke the autharization.
Activities subject to Section 404 (as indicated above) may also require an individual Section 401 Water Quality Certification. You
should contact the NC Division of Water Resources (telephone [phone]) to determine Section 401 requirements.
For activities occurring within the twenty coastal counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA),
prior to beginning work you must contact the N.C. Division of Coastal Management in Elizabeth City, NC, at [phone].

program, please contact Andrew Williams at [phone] or Andrew.E.Williams2(a�usace.army.mil.
