The culverts were sized to accommodate a 10 -year 24-hour storm event without overtopping the driveway. The culvert will be installed approximately 1 foot below the existing stream
bed and rip -rap dissipation pad will be set at an elevation that allows for passage of water and movement of aquatic life. The project will be constructed in the dry and will result in
permanent impacts associated with the CMPs and temporary impacts associated with de -watering for the pump around, impervious dikes, the stabilized outlet section, and the sediment
removal device. Standard construction equipment will be used, such as excavators, backhoes, hauling trucks, etc.

O Yes r No
5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat?
The USFWS's Critical Habitat GIS shapefiles were reviewed and a query of the N.C. Natural Heritage Programs
(NCNHP) Data Explore database for protected species distribution and proximity to the Project Area was conducted (see attached Project Report
[NCNHDE-6535]). The USFWS's database revealed that there is no active critical habitat for federally protected species within the Project Area. The
resulting NCNHP Data Explorer Project Report indicated that no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or
conservation/managed areas occur within the Project Area (Figure 4).
No suitable habitat was located within the Project Area for bald eagle, dwarf -flowered heartleaf, or Schweinitts sunflower.
No mature trees (greater than six inches in diameter) exhibiting exfoliating bark (i.e., hickories and oaks) or dead tree snags that would serve as
potential roosting habitat for northern long-eared bats exdst within the Project Area. According to the NCNHP database and USFWS's GIS database of
areas with confirmed hibernation and maternity sites (https://www.fws.gov/asheville/htmis/project_review/NLEB_in_WNC.html), no known occurrences
including hibernacula and/or maternity roost trees have been documented within the Project Area or within 0.25 mile of the Project Area. Since woody
species are routinely maintained within the Project Area, no impacts to this species are anticipated.
Correspondence (August 22, 2018) was sent to the USFWS requesting comments on any possible issues that may emerge with respect to
endangered species, migratory birds, or other resources from the proposed construction activities. To date, no response has been received from the
USFWS; however, when a response is received, it will be forwarded promptly to the USACE.

7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement)
7a. Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation status?*
O Yes r No
7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources?*
HDR reviewed the National Park Service National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) GIS Public Dataset and the N.C. Historic Preservation Office
(NCHPO) HPOWEB GIS Web Service. The review revealed there are no known cultural resources, historic structures, or historic districts located within
the Project area. Archaeological data were not included as part of the NCHPO GIS services and were not assessed as part of this study.
Correspondence
(dated August 22, 2018) was sent to the NCHPO requesting information on historic/cultural resources that may be impacted by the proposed project.

Subject: APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Bumgarner Culvert (Powerline ROW)
Dear Ms. Hoyt:
You have our approval, in accordance with the General Certification and those conditions listed
below, for the purpose proposed in your application dated August 24, 2018 and received by the Division
of Water Resources (the Division) on August 27, 2018. After reviewing your application, we have
determined that this project is covered by Water Quality General Certification Number 4132 which can
be viewed on our web site at https�//deg nc gov/about/divisions/water-resources/water-resources-
ermits/wastewater branch/401-wetlands-buffer-permits/401401 -isolated-wetlands-waters-program
The General Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 3 once it is issued to you by the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE). Please note that you should get any other federal, state or local
permits before proceeding with your project, including those required by (but not limited to) Sediment
and Erosion Control, Non -Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
The above noted Certification will expire when the associated 404 permit expires unless
otherwise specified in the General Certification. It is advised that all conditions of the Certification are
reviewed prior to initiation of the project. In addition to the requirements of the Certification, you must
also comply with the following conditions:
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. I'
you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required to send us a
new application for a new Certification. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future)
exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 300 linear feet,
compensatory mitigation may be required. If the property is sold, the new owner must be
given a copy of the Certification and approval letter; and is thereby responsible for complying
with all conditions. 15A NCAC,02H .0506 and 15A NCAC 02H .0507
