River basin: Lower Catawba River 03050103 (HUC) 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 project area consists of single-family residential development with undeveloped forested and maintained herbaceous areas. On-site elevations range from 680-700 feet above mean sea level (Figures 1-7). Land cover within the project area consists of deciduous forest, herbaceous areas, and medium intensity multi -family residential development and related infrastructure. 3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property: 0.006 -acre c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property: 203 linear feet 3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: The purpose of the project is to construct an expansion of the existing retirement home on the property. 3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The Presbyterian Home of Charlotte will be expanding its current footprint by constructing several new residential structures and an underground parking garage and storm water treatment system within Mecklenburg County tax parcels 17903202, 17903201, 17903248, 17903247, 17903245, 17905109, 17905107. This project will provide for needed new residential space within a quickly growing, urban section of Charlotte and provide a recreational outlet for the current Sharon Towers residents. Site preparation for the new structures will involve engineered fill within Stream A and Wetland AA (Figure 7; Attachment H, Photographs 1-2). Total permanent impacts to Stream A will be 178 linear feet and permanent impacts to Wetland AA will total 0.006 ac (Attachment F -Impact Figure). Plans for the proposed expansion of the Presbyterian Home are shown in Attachment F. Impacts to Stream A (S1) and Wetland AA (W1) will result from fill due to the construction of structures associated with the Sharon Towers expansion, an emergency access road, and a below grade parking garage and the widening and relocation of the on-site access road. The on-site access road will be rerouted and widened to support improvements to the Sharon Road and Sharon View Road intersection as required by the City of Charlotte. Off-site storm water flow supporting the hydrology of Stream A and Wetland AA will be routed away from the original channel by a series of new permanent pipes that will be directed to a below grade BMP composed of sand filter, sediment, and detention chambers. This BMP will remove sediment and excessive nutrients before the water is piped off-site to existing storm water infrastructure (Attachment F). The lower, approximately 25 linear foot, section of Stream A will be left undisturbed. An underground storm water detention structure with a slow release rate pipe, connected to roof leaders of adjacent buildings, will provide hydrology to the undisturbed section of Stream A, thereby supporting continued function of the stream. No loss of channel or hydrology will occur in the lower 25 feet of Stream A. Typical heavy equipment will be used in the grading operations (bulldozers, excavators, dump trucks, graders, etc).

Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. 'No build' alternative: The purpose of the project is to construct an expansion of the existing retirement home on the property and will provide for needed new residential space within a quickly growing, urban section of Charlotte and provide a recreational outlet for the current Sharon Towers residents. A 'no build' alternative would not meet project goals, therefore, this alternative is not practical. Preferred Alternative: To avoid and minimize impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S., the Sharon Towers site was delineated, and a field USACE verification of on-site features was obtained on December 7, 2018. Impacts to Waters of the U.S. are unavoidable due to several site constraints. The below grade parking garage is a requirement of the City of Charlotte and its location is dictated by the lack of above ground area available for the amount of parking required, location of planned underground storm water and utility infrastructure, and the widening and relocation of the on-site access road that provides ingress/egress to the Sharon Road and Sharon View Road intersection. Additionally, grading for the widening and relocation of the on-site access road will cause unavoidable impacts to Wetland AA. The City of Charlotte is requiring improvements to this intersection in anticipation of additional traffic resulting from the expansion of Sharon Towers. The crosswalk distance will be shortened, improving pedestrian safety (Attachment F-Impact Figure). Fill of Stream A will also support a required 20-foot wide emergency vehicle access road. Placement of this road is dictated by available access to Sharon Road and convenient access to all facilities of the Sharon Towers site while avoiding potentially heavily trafficked primary access roads. To minimize impacts to Stream A while still achieving project aims, the lower, approximately 25 linear foot, section of Stream A will be left undisturbed. Water Quality Enhancement: Off-site storm water flow supporting the hydrology of Stream A and Wetland AA will be routed away from the original channel by a series of pipes that will direct water to a below grade BMP composed of sand filter, sediment, and detention chambers that will remove sediment and nutrients before the water is piped off-site to existing storm water infrastructure (Attachment F-Construction Plans). This BMP will improve water quality more effectively than the on-site jurisdictional features as it will treat a greater volume of stormwater. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. An underground storm water detention structure with a slow release rate pipe connected to roof leaders of adjacent buildings will provide hydrology to the undisturbed section of Stream A, thereby supporting continued function of the channel and no loss of channel, or hydrology, in the lower 25 feet of Stream A (Attachment F-Impact Figure). Sediment and erosion control measures will be used to minimize disturbances to downstream waters and control off-site sediment runoff (Attachment F). Construction activities and impacts to on-site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. will comply with all conditions of the Nationwide Permit No. 29 and Water Quality Certification No. 4139. Proposed on-site storm water structures will treat additional off-site storm water as well. Additionally, a NPDES erosion and sediment control permit will be obtained. 2.

Moffat The Presbyterian Home of Charlotte 5100 Sharon Road Charlotte, NC 28210 Subject: Protected Species Habitat Assessment Report Sharon Towers Charlotte, North Carolina CWS Project No. 2018-0348 Dear Ms. Moffat, The Presbyterian Home of Charlotte has contracted Carolina Wetland Services, Inc. (CWS) to provide a protected species habitat assessment for Sharon Towers site. The Sharon Towers site (Mecklenburg County Tax Parcel Nos. 17903245 and 17903247, partial parcels) is approximately 2.4 acres in extent and is located west of the Sharon Road and Sharon View Road intersection in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (Figure 1). Methods In -office Desktop Review To determine which protected species are listed as occurring or potentially occurring within the project vicinity and prior to conducting the on-site field investigation, CWS consulted the United States Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) Endangered and Threatened Species and Species of Concern by County for North Carolina online database for Mecklenburg County'. In addition, CWS performed a data review using the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) Data Explorer2 on November 2, 2018 to determine if any record occurrences of federally -listed, candidate endangered, threatened species, or critical habitat are located within the project limits. Typical habitat requirements for listed species was discerned from multiple USFWS' and NCNHP' online resources including, but not limited to, specific USFWS species profiles, recovery plans, NCNHP's Guide to Federally Listed Endangered and Threatened Species of North Carolina, and List of the Rare Plant Species of North Carolina.

Field Survey CWS scientists Aliisa Harjuniemi, Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS), Megan Shelton, Wetland Professional In Training (WPIT), and Hannah Meeler, Staff Scientist I, conducted a pedestrian habitat assessment of the project area on November 5, 2018. Potential habitats for potentially occurring federally -protected species that were identified during the desktop review were assessed in the field for the quality of physical and/or biological features essential to the conservation of the applicable species. Additionally, during the pedestrian habitat assessment, areas were reviewed for applicable federally protected species. However, formal surveys were not conducted for the occurence of protected species. Identification references for natural communities include the National Land Cover Database (2011)6. Results Based on the NCNHP data explorer review, there are no current records of federally -protected species within the project limits or within a mile of the project limits (Attachment A). The USFWS lists seven federally protected species for Mecklenburg County (Table 1). An official species list has not been obtained from the USFWS Asheville Field Office. Table 1.

A brief description of each species habitat requirements and determination of effect findings are listed below by species. Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzJh Habitat Description: Schweinitz's sunflower is a perennial herb with yellow rays and yellow centers. They can reach heights of five feet. Populations are limited to the piedmont of North and South Carolina. It has been listed as an Endangered species under the ESA since 1991. The typical habitat for this plant includes roadsides, old pastures, transmission line right-of-ways, open areas, either natural or human -maintained habitats, or edges of upland woods. Major characteristics of soils associated with suitable Schweinitz's sunflower habitat include thin soils, soils on upland interstream flats or gentle slopes, soils that are clay like in both composition and texture (and often with substantial rock fragments), soils that have a high shrinkage swell capacity, and those which vary over the course of the year from very wet to very dry. Biological Analysis: Potential on site habitat for this species is limited to the herbaceous areas along the forest edges (Photographs 1 and 2). The desktop review and field survey assessment determined that this area does have the proper soils to support Schweinitz's sunflower. However, these areas are too heavily maintained through the practices of mowing and pesticide application. No individuals of Schweinitz's sunflower or other Helianthus species were observed during the field assessment on November 5, 2018, supportive habitat was not present, and no known population records of the species occurs within one mile of the project area in the NHP database, which leads CWS to conclude that the project will not affect Schweinitz's sunflower. Smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata) Habitat Description: Smooth coneflower is a tall, perennial herbaceous plant found in areas with abundant sunlight where competition in the herbaceous layer is minimal. It has been federally listed as Endangered under the ESA since 1992.8 Typical habitat for this plant includes meadows, open woodlands, the ecotonal regions between meadows and woodlands, cedar barrens, dry limestone bluffs, clear cuts, and roadside and utility rights-of-way. In North Carolina, the species normally grows in magnesium- and calcium- rich soils associated with gabbro and diabase parent material, and typically occurs in Iredell, Misenheimer, and Picture soil series. It grows best where there is abundant sunlight, little competition in the herbaceous layer, and periodic disturbances (e.g., regular fire regime, well-timed mowing, careful clearing) that prevents encroachment of shade -producing woody shrubs and trees. On sites where woody succession is held in check, it is characterized by a number of species with prairie affinities. United States Fish and Wildlife Services. 1991.

Page 3 of 7 Sharon Towers November 14, 2018 Protected Species Assessment Report CWS Project No. 2018-0348 Biological Analysis: A NCNHP data record review revealed that there are no current occurrences for this species within the project limits, or within a one -mile radius of the project (Attachment A). Though disturbed open areas conducive to early -succession species are present in the project area, these areas consist of saprolite and residuum weathered soils, absent of magnesium and calcium and are therefore not suitable for smooth coneflower.9 Due to the lack of habitat and known occurrences, CWS concludes that this project will not affect Smooth coneflower. Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxi)i Habitat Description: Michaux's sumac is a rhizomatous shrub. It is densely hairy with compound leaves exhibiting evenly -serrated leaflets. Flowers are small, greenish to white, in terminal clusters. Fruits are red drupes produced from August to October. It has been listed as an Endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) since 1989.10 It is found on the coastal plains of Virginia to Florida, with most populations occurring in North Carolina. It prefers sandy or rocky open woods with basic soils, as well as, highway right-of-ways, roadsides, or edges of artificially -maintained clearings. Biological Analysis: A NCNHP data record review revealed that there are no current occurrences for this species within the project limits, or within a one -mile radius of the project (Attachment A). Though disturbed open areas conducive to early -succession species are present in the project area, these areas consist of acidic Cecil soils that are not suitable for Michaux's sumac (Figure 2). Additionally the Raleigh Ecological Services Field Office states in its Michaux's sumac profile page that the species is considered historic in Mecklenburg County11. Due to the lack of habitat and known occurrences, CWS concludes that this project will not affect Michaux's sumac. Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) Habitat Description: The Carolina heelsplitter was historically known from several locations within the Catawba and Pee Dee River systems in North Carolina and the Pee Dee and Savannah River systems, and possibly the Saluda River system in South Carolina. In North Carolina, the species is now known only from a handful of streams in the Pee Dee and Catawba River systems. The species exists in very low abundances, usually within 6 feet of shorelines, throughout its known range. The general habitat requirements for the Carolina heelsplitter are shaded areas in large rivers to small streams, often burrowed into clay banks between the root systems of trees, or in runs along steep banks with moderate current. Recently, the Carolina heelsplitter has been found is in sections of United States Department of Agriculture, 2017. Web Soil Survey of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Accessed 11/2/18.

Due to to the lack of habitat, CWS concludes that this project will not affect the Carolina heelsplitter. Rusty Patched Bumble Bee (Bombus affinis) The Rusty patched bumble bee was listed as Endangered under the ESA in January 2017.13 Rusty patched bumble bees once occupied grasslands and tallgrass prairies of the Upper Midwest and Northeast, but most grasslands and prairies have been lost, degraded, or fragmented by conversion to other uses. According to USFWS guidance, "the rusty patched bumble bee is likely to be present in scattered locations that cover only about 0.1 % of the species' historical range. It is within these limited areas USFWS recommend that federal agencies and others consider the need to consult with the Service on the potential effects of their actions or the potential need for an incidental take permit under section 10(a)(1)(B). For the remaining 99.9% of the historical range, USFWS advise agencies and others that this bumble bee is not likely to be present and that consultations or incidental take coverage is not necessary."" According to USFWS' Rusty Patched Bumble Bee Interactive Map, Mecklenburg County is not within the 0.1 % historical range as no high potential zones or low potential zones are present within Mecklenburg County. Therefore, the proposed project will not affect the rusty -patched bumble bee. Northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) The northern long-eared bat (NLEB) is one of the species of bats most impacted by the white -nose syndrome disease. Summer habitat (roosting habitat) of the NLEB includes forests and woodlots containing live trees and/or dead snags greater than three inches diameter at breast height with cavities or crevices. Winter habitat (hibernacula) of the NLEB includes caves, mines, rocky areas, or structures that mimic similar conditions such as culverts greater than 48 -inch in diameter. 15 The NLEB was listed as Threatened (T) on April 2, 2015. The forested areas within the property are potential habitats for the NLEB. A Standard Local Operating Procedure for Endangered Species Act Compliance (SLOPES) was established for NLEB between the USFWS Asheville and Raleigh Ecological Offices and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Wilmington District, on January 31, 2017.16 This SLOPES defines how the USACE will make determinations of effect to the NLEB on projects in which the 12 NCDOT TE Animal Habitat Descriptions. 2015. https://connect.ncdot.gov/resources/Envi ronmenta I/Compliance%20G uides%20and%20Proced uresrrE%2OAn i mal%2OHabitat% 20Descriptions%2OMar 6_2015.pdf 13 United States Fish and Wildlife Services. https://www.fws.gov/midwestlendangered/insects/rpbb/index.html 74 United States Fish and Wildlife Services. https://www.fws.gov/midwestlendangered/insects/rpbb/index.html 75 United States Fish and Wildlife Service. 2016.4(d) Rule for the Northern Long -Eared Bat; Final rule. https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2016-01-14/pdf/2016-00617.pdf 15 USACE http://saw-reg.usace.anny.mil/NLEB/1-30-17-signed_NLEB-SLOPES&apps.pdf Page 5 of 7 Sharon Towers November 14, 2018 Protected Species Assessment Report CWS Project No. 2018-0348 USACE is the lead federal agency. Alternative Local Procedure 1 (ALP 1) applies for the Sharon Towers site as the action area is within range of the NLEB," the action area is located outside of a red 12 -digit HUC as defined by the Asheville Ecological Services Field Office, 18 and consultation by the USACE is required on other listed species or critical habitat. The final 4(d) rule exempts incidental take of NLEB associated with activities that occur greater than 0.25 miles from a known hibernaculum site and greater than 150 feet from a known, occupied maternity roost from June 1 -July 31. In accordance with ALP 1 and the final 4(d) rule (effective as of February 16, 2016), any incidental take that may result from associated activities is exempt under the 4(d) rule. Therefore, this project is exempt under the 4(d) rule. Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act,19 enacted in 1940, prohibits anyone, without a permit issued, from "taking" bald eagles, including their parts, nests, or eggs. Habitat for the bald eagle includes cliffs and forested areas typically within 1.0 mile of estuaries, large lakes, reservoirs, rivers, seacoast, and as they become more abundant, stands of undisturbed forest. A desktop -GIS assessment of the project study area, as well as the area within a 1 mile radius of the project limits, was performed on November 2, 2018 using 2018 color aerials. No water bodies large enough or sufficiently open to be considered potential feeding sources were identified. Since there was no foraging habitat within the review area, a survey of the project study area and the area within the project limits was not conducted. Additionally, a review of the NCNHP database on November 2, 2018 revealed no known occurrences of this species within 1.0 mile of the project study area. Due to the lack of habitat and known occurrences, CWS concludes that this project will not affect this species. Summary Based on the literature search and the results of the on-site assessment for suitable habitat of federally -protected endangered, and threatened species, suitable habitat was not observed within the project limits for Schweinitz's sunflower, smooth coneflower, Michaux's sumac, bald eagle, or Carolina heelsplitter. Additionally, the project area is not located within the 0.1 % historical range of the rusty -patched bumble bee. CWS has concluded that activities within the project area will not directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of Schweinitz's sunflower, the smooth coneflower, Michaux's sumac, bald eagle, rusty -patched bumble bee, and Carolina heelsplitter. Additionally, based on the project area location, no tree removal activities will occur within a 150 -foot radius of a known, occupied NLEB maternity roost from June 1 -July 31 and no trees will be removed within 0.25 miles of a known hibernaculum at any time of year. Therefore, any incidental take on NLEB that may result from associated activities is exempt under the 4(d) rule and notifications will follow the SLOPES agreement20.

Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database, indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here: httos://www.fws.aov/offices/Di rectory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water Management Trust Fund easement, or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area.
