I would also like to point out that it doesn't appear that a final version of the last meeting's summary has been provided or
posted. It's for the B section, but some discussion of the BA section occurred. Teresa Gresham sent them out for review April 11
and Marella and I made comments on the minutes April 17 and 2ptn
I have attached my email communication to the team following that last meeting with our concerns about the longtail
salamander. We are very concerned about any disturbance of the river banks that may impact the rocky outcrops and boulder
habitat these rare salamanders depend on. Is the proposed excavation, especially on the east/south side? Can we route the
drainage away from that area? Of course, we are also concerned about the Hellbender, which may be federally listed next
month. Regardless, we are still concerned and believe avoiding (and minimizing) river bank disturbance will be protective for
hellbenders, too, (sedimentation and erosion). We still believe a site visit would be beneficial, perhaps a small group, such as
NCDOT and/or consultant reps will meet with me and Lori Williams, my coworker with expertise on these species.

I'm wondering if we could get a version of the redline plans without topo lines (or a lot fewer). The plans are hard to read,
especially when sharing with members of our staff that aren't used to reading roadway plans. We do have concerns, that I will
share soon.
