Attention: Shannon Deaton, Chief, Habitat Conservation Division
Reference: Project Review
Robeson LNG Project ERM
Robeson County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Deaton:
On behalf of Duke Energy, Environmental Resources Management (ERM) is writing
regarding the proposed development of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) peaking facility,
referred to as the Robeson LNG Project (Project). The Project is proposed for
development at an approximately 685.34 -acre site in Robeson County (see attached
figures 1-3).
Currently the proposed Project site is undeveloped, used primarily for silviculture, and
consists principally of a mix of forested portions and open, cleared land. ERM has
conducted both desktop database reviews and a field reconnaissance of the Project site.
Project development may involve a measure of impacts to federally jurisdictional waters
and, accordingly, could entail permitting review by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
pursuant to the Clean Water Act.
ERM completed an unofficial species review of the Project site using the Information
Planning and Consultation (IPaC) system (see attached report). Per that review, four
federally listed species (relative to the Endangered Species Act) were identified as
having potential for being within the site boundaries. Those species are:
• Red -cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis)
• Wood stork (Mycteria americana)
• American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)
• Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii)
Based on ERM's review of the site, we do not believe that there is reasonably supportive
habitat on the property for either the Red -cockaded woodpecker (RCW) or Michaux's
sumac. Though there are some remaining pine trees present, they are not mature pines
with the associated natural conditions preferred by the RCW. Furthermore, the property
is subject to ongoing disturbances associated with the silviculture operations. Those
disturbances, including cutting, clearing, and the movement of heavy equipment, also
adversely affect the likelihood of Michaux's sumac populations being present. Though
this plant species is known to be present at locations where there is some degree of
disturbance, such as within maintained rights-of-way, the levels of disturbance

associated with pine plantations, currently occurring at the site, are recognized as
threats to Michaux's sumac.
As for the Wood stork and the American alligator, there is some potential for these
species to be present in Gum Swamp, which borders, and slightly crosses, the western
boundary of the property. However, prospective site development will not include
intrusion into Gum Swamp; therefore, even if these species were present in Gum
Swamp, there would not be direct disturbance of either the species themselves or their
habitat.
Besides the federally listed species as indicated by IPaC, ERM understands that there
may be additional pertinent information, including state level concerns, which the NC
Wildlife Resources Commission could note. The Project is located within the boundaries
of the Wakulla, NC USGS Topographic Quad, for which the NC Natural Heritage
Program (NCNHP) had listed 28 entries (see attached), and for which NCNHP's
mapping shows the Floral College Bay Complex Natural Area nearby (though outside of
the Project boundaries). We ask that you provide preliminary comments regarding the
interests of your agency. Please contact ERM at 612-719-5832 or at the email address
provided below, if you need additional information. Thank you for your time in
reviewing and responding to this request for comments.
Respectfully,
ERM

IPaC resource list
This report is an automatically generated list of species and other resources such as critical habitat
(collectively referred to as trust resources) under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS)
jurisdiction that are known or expected to be on or near the project area referenced below. The list
may also include trust resources that occur outside of the project area, but that could potentially be
directly or indirectly affected by activities in the project area. However, determining the likelihood
and extent of effects a project may have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional
site-specific (e.g., vegetation/species surveys) and project -specific (e.g., magnitude and timing of
proposed activities) information.
Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for the USFWS
offices) with jurisdiction in the defined project area. Please read the introduction to each section
that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds, USFWS Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for
additional information applicable to the trust resources addressed in that section.

Endangered species
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of
project level impacts.
The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species.
Additional areas of influence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of
the species range if the species could be indirectly affected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a
dam upstream of a fish population, even if that fish does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly
impact the species by reducing or eliminating water flow downstream). Because species can move,
and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near
the project area. To fully determine any potential effects to species, additional site-specific and
project -specific information is often required.
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary
information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area
of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any
Federal agency. A letter from the local office and a species list which fulfills this requirement can
only be obtained by requesting an official species list from either the Regulatory Review section in
IPaC (see directions below) or from the local field office directly.
For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website
and request an official species list by doing the following:
1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE.
2. Click DEFINE PROJECT.
3. Log in (if directed to do so).
4. Provide a name and description for your project.
5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST.
Listed species! and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the fisheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAH Fisheries).
Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not shown on this
list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under their jurisdiction.
1. Species listed under the Endangered Species Act are threatened or endangered; IPaC also shows
species that are candidates, or proposed, for listing. See the listing status page for more
information.

The graphs below provide our best understanding of when birds of concern are most likely to be
present in your project area. This information can be used to tailor and schedule your project
activities to avoid or minimize impacts to birds. Please make sure you read and understand the FAQ
"Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report" before using or attempting to
interpret this report.
Probability of Presence ( )
Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your
project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4 -week months.) A
taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort (see below) can be
used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score. One can have higher confidence in the
presence score if the corresponding survey effort is also high.
How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:
1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the
week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that
week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was
found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25.
2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence
is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence
across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted
Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any
week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is
0.05/0.25 = 0.2.
3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical
conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of
presence score.
To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
Breeding Season( )
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time -frame inside which the bird breeds across its
entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.
Survey Effort (1)
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys
performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps. The number of
surveys is expressed as a range, for example, 33 to 64 surveys.
To see a bar's survey effort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
No Data (—)
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.
Survey Timeframe
Surveys from only the last 10 years are used in order to ensure delivery of currently relevant
information. The exception to this is areas off the Atlantic coast, where bird returns are based on all
years of available data, since data in these areas is currently much more sparse.

Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.
Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at
any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to
occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and
avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to
occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures and/or
permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or
bird species present on your project site.
What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location?
The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern {BCC) and other species
that may warrant special attention in your project location.
The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network
(AKN), The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey,, ba Ind ing, and citizen science datasets and is
queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10 km grid ceII(s) which your project
intersects, and that have been identified as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that
area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to offshore
activities or development.
Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not
representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your
project area, please visit the E -bird Explore Data Tool.
What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially
occurring in my specified location?
The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the
Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen
science datasets .
Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To
learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the
Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.
How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area?
https:Hecos.fws.gov/ipac/location/HGSPGXM5BRFDRNF6MWUACMY3QY/resources 7/10

6/5/2018
IPaC: Explore Location
To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or
year-round), you may refer to the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird Guide, or
(if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds
guide. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur
in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds
elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.
What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?
Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:
1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range
anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);
2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the
continental USA; and
3. "Non -BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of
the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non -eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from
certain types of development or activities (e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing).
Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to
avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For
more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird
impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.
Details about birds that are potentially affected by offshore projects
For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of
bird species within your project area off the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal
also offers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review,
Alternately, you may download the bird model results files underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS
Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic
Outer Continental Shelf project web page.
Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year,
including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on
marine bird tracking data, seethe Diving Bird Study_ and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam
Lori ng.
What if I have eagles on my list?
If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the
Eagle Act should such impacts occur.
Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report
The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority
concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be in
your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in
my specified location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10 km
grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look
carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a
red horizontal bar). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of
presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort bar or no data bar means a lack
of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting
point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there,
and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to

Data limitations
The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level
information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high
altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error
is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on -the -ground inspection of any particular site may result in
revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts,
the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted.
Meta data should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be
occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and
the actual conditions on site.
r
Data exclusions
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial
imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged
aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidaI zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters.
Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory.
These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.
Data precautions I.
Federal, state, and Iocai regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a
different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this
inventory, to define the limits of proprieta ryjurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish
the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in
activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal,
state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietaryjurisdictions that may
affect such activities.

A species/community search provides lists of rare plants and animals, natural communities, and
important animal assemblages (e.g., heronries and colonial waterbird nesting sites) known to the
North Carolina Natural Heritage Program. By default, records are summarized by county, but you
also have the option to summarize the records by USGS topographic maps or simple statewide
summaries. For more information or for an explanation of the results of the search, see the
"Help" and "Definitions" links above.
• Partial search terms are acceptable. If you are unsure of the correct spelling, you could
enter the beginning letters of either the genus or species in the Scientific Name field.
• To see distribution maps, click on the scientific or common name of an element in the table
of results from a county or topo database search.. Note that there are no maps for the
statewide summary.
• The results can be further refined by entering a text string in the "Filter search results"
field.

• Clicking the "Download Results' button will give you the option of saving the results table
to a comma -separated -values file. This type of file can be opened with most spreadsheet
programs, including Microsoft Excel..
• If you have any questions or technical issues, contact a Conservation Information Manager.
Use of North Carolina Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field
surveys, particularly if the project area contains suitable habitat for rare species. If a database
search lists no records for a project area, it does not necessarily mean that they are not present..
The area may not have been surveyed by biologists, or the data may not have been reported to
the Natural Heritage Program.
Information obtained from the heritage data search should be cited as follows: North Carolina
Natural Heritage Program Online Data Search.. [search date].. Department of Natural and Cultural
Resources, Division of Land and Water Stewardship, Raleigh, NC. Available att www.ncnhp.org
