Do not click links or open attachments unless verified. Send all suspicious email as an attachment to Report Spam.<mailto:report.spam@nc.gov> Wildlands Engineering, Inc. Asheville, Inc. Scott Gregory, The Corps has requested informal consultation/coordination with US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for Mountain Sweet Pitch Plant (Sarracenia jonesii) on the recently submitted PCNs/applications for the Comet Dive Site (Site Q1B), Patton Park Site (Site Q1G), and Meadowbrook Terrace Site (Site Q1C) Stream Restoration Projects in Hendersonville, Henderson County, NC. We are required to make a determination of effect on federally listed species prior to issuing a permit to impact jurisdictional waters of the United States. If other than a "no effect" determination is made, we must consult with the USFWS. At this time, the Corps cannot make a determination of no effect, therefore we will coordinate/consult the application with the USFWS. Until the Corps completes consultation or can make a determination of no effect, we cannot make a final decision regarding the use of the NWP program for this project. We will contact you once we have made a determination for this project. USFWS usually responds within 30 days with comments. The Corps has placed processing your application on hold until comments are received from USFWS. If you have any questions, please contact me.
