(WSSI) has provided the additional information requested in your letter dated July 25, 2018 (Appendix A) regarding the above -referenced permit application. We have addressed each of your items of concern below, as well as including our responses to other agency comments, including Section 408 requested information, as instructed by your letter dated July 13, 2018 (Appendix A). This letter is organized as follows: • U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) responses — Page 2 - 5 • North Carolina Department of Water Resources (NCDWR) responses — Page 7 - 9 • U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) — Page 10 • North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) responses — Page 11 • North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (NCSHPO) responses — Page 12 • Section 408 Information Requested by USACE — Page 1 Copies of the agency comment letters are included in Appendix A with additional supporting information provided in Appendices B -G of this package. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road Suite 200 • Virginia Beach, Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 . www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 2 of 13 Letter from the USACE dated July 25, 2018 (Appendix A): Reference the information you submitted entitled, Individual Permit Application and Support Document, Camden Plantation, Camden County, North Carolina (Document), dated May 2018. As discussed, please provide the following information to facilitate our evaluation of your application: 1. A complete maps) depicting the boundaries of the 21 offsite alternatives evaluated. Applicant Response: Please see enclosed Figure 3-a, which shows the boundaries of all 21 offsite alternatives evaluated (Appendix B). 2. National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) mapping alone is insufficient to justify the dropping of alternatives from consideration. As discussed, you should utilize available remote sensing tools (Web Soil Survey, LiDAR, aerial imagery, etc), coupled with field reconnaissance (as possible), to present a more accurate estimate of wetland acres that exist on the offsite alternatives. Applicant Response: Please see enclosed Figure 3-b and Figure 3-c. Figure 3-b shows hydric soils, FEMA floodplain data, and the NWI layer overlain on updated aerial imagery (2016) while Figure 3-c shows LiDAR overlain on the same aerial image (Appendix B). All potential sites are mapped as underlain by hydric soils. All remaining sites except for Parcels A, B, C, and the preferred site were eliminated for access, availability to utilities, preponderance of mapped wetlands, and/or being in the 1 percent FEMA floodplain. Parcel A is encumbered by floodplain on approximately 50 percent of the site and is mapped as NWI wetlands over 100 percent of the site and has been reverting to forest since the harvesting of timber between 2003 and 2008. This site was eliminated based on the mapped hydric soils, NWI wetlands, and that harvesting reduces evapotranspiration, increases compaction, and typically reduces infiltration of rainfall, thereby increasing the likelihood of wetlands on the site. Parcel B is mapped as 100 percent wetlands as well. It has been returning to a wooded condition since 2009. This site was also eliminated. In addition to on-site conditions, Parcels A and B are not currently zoned for residential development, making selection of those sites for Camden Plantation not compatible with the Camden County 2035 Comprehensive Plan, per the enclosed Table 1 (Appendix B). Parcel C is currently zoned for conservation and/or agricultural use per The 2035 Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the parcel is long (17,000 feet) and narrow (2,000 feet) and would preclude the development of essential elements of the Camden Plantation, particularly the residential and golf course layouts. As such, this parcel is not a practicable alternative for the Camden Plantation development since residential uses run contrary to the County's approved 2035 Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the parcel also lacks water line infrastructure, has only limited access to an existing sewer line along U.S. Route 17, and therefore will not accommodate development of any kind. This Parcel is removed from consideration. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC March 12, 2019 Page 3 of 13 We have also updated Table 1 with revised wetland impact numbers to reflect the fact that the site plan revisions for the preferred alternative (Camden Plantation) will only impact 3.09 acres of wetlands. This analysis, together with the revisions to Camden Plantation demonstrates that the Preferred Alternative is the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative (LEDPA). 3. Amend Table I a) Add the wetland acres to the column entitled "Potential Wetland Impacts. " Applicant Response: Please see the enclosed "Off-site Alternatives Revised 3-6-19" (Appendix B). b) Delete the last column entitled "Practicable. " Applicant Response: Please see the enclosed "Off-site Alternatives Revised 3-6-19" (Appendix B). 4. Provide the North Carolina Department of Transportation access permit that was issued to you for the connection of the Camden Plantation entrance road to US Highway 17 and other documentation you have supporting the location of the proposed entrance road. Applicant Response: A copy of the NC DOT access permit for the entrance road is included in Appendix C. 5. North Carolina's Dismal Swamp State Park and Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center are both located immediately across US 17 from the proposed development. Pursuant to 40 CFR Subpart F 230.52 through 230.54, provide information on the measures you have considered and are taking to minimize the physical and visual impacts of this large development on the state park, welcome center, and local area.' Applicant Response: The development will be screened from the Welcome Center by the forested area on the following parcels located between Camden Plantation and U.S. 17: 0 017071007472400000 0 017071008307500000 0 017071008328040000 0 017071008338480000 0 017071008402490000 Furthermore, the revised plan proposes smaller PFO wetland impacts to accommodate the entrance off U.S. 17. As such, much less clearing of the existing forested areas fronting the property will occur, maintaining a sufficient visual buffer. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC March 12, 2019 Page 4 of 13 6. As discussed, the Corps and resource agencies believe that you can achieve substantial avoidance and minimization of wetland impacts through redesign of the project including realigning the entrance road and adjusting the commercial/residential lots and golf course layout. Accordingly, you must provide a new plan drawing that depicts further avoidance and minimization of impacts to waters and wetlands resources on the site. Applicant Response: The Site plan has been revised to significantly reduce impacts to wetlands from the previously proposed combined total of 28.90 acres of palustrine forested (PFO) and palustrine emergent (PEM) wetland impacts spread across 5 of the 6 wetlands on the site. Currently, proposed impacts include 3.09 acres of permanent impacts to PFO, 258 linear feet (If) of permanent impact to intermittent Relatively Permanent Waters (RPW), 50 if of temporary impacts to the perennial RPW Joyce Creek (Revised Permit Drawings -Page 1, Appendix D). Impacts to only two of the six wetlands are currently proposed, while four wetlands are fully avoided. Further avoidance and minimization of impacts to wetlands has been achieved by several significant site design revisions. First, the applicant has decided to remove the commercial development from the project; second, the golf course layout has been modified to avoid as much wetland impact as practicable; third, the alignment of the entrance road of Rt. 17 was modified to reduce wetland impacts; and finally, the number of single-family home lots has been reduced by ten. A summary of the unavoidable impacts is provided below. These are impacts associated with the entrance off Rt. 17 and unavoidable constraints associated with the golf course, including fairway width, drainage swales, and safety concerns, as illustrated in further detail on the Revised Permit Drawings and described below: • Impact #1: There are 2.27 acres of unavoidable PFO impact at this location associated with the relocated entrance road and Hole #17 (Impact #1 - Revised Permit Drawings -Page 2, Appendix D). While the road angle was able to be realigned slightly to reduce impacts, the location of the entrance itself along U.S. 17 was unable to be moved from the NCDOT-approved alignment and will result in 0.70 acres of permanent impacts (Appendix Q. The southwest corner of Wetland Area #5 will be filled to create the greens and fairway associated with golf course Hole #17. This filling will result in 1.57 acres of permanent wetland impacts. Even without the necessary golf course impacts, this part of the wetland would become hydrologically isolated by the construction of the adjacent road, thus resulting in secondary impacts over time. Instead, the Applicant is proposing to take golf course impacts here and avoid areas of the wetland north of the road that otherwise would not be isolated by the construction of the road. • Impact #2: This impact will clear-cut and regrade this area in order to construct the tee complex associated with Hole # 18 of the golf course and provide an adequate angle and corridor width to the landing area. If this 0.38 -acre impact was not incorporated into the design of Hole #18, a much more acute angle of the dogleg portion of the first landing area, would result in an awkwardly positioned landing area that would be 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC March 12, 2019 Page 5 of 13 hazardous to homes lining the east side of the course (Impact #2 - Revised Permit Drawings -Page 3, Appendix D). • Impact #3: This 0.12 -acre impact will be cleared with approximately three quarters of the area being graded and the remainder being left as rough. Rough will be mowed twice weekly during the growing season. The filling of the wetland is required to incorporate a swale for drainage and to provide a sufficient playable turf surface (Impact #3 - Revised Permit Drawings -Page 3, Appendix D). • Impact #4: This impact will be cleared to have the ability to place the cartpath between the fairway bunkers and the newly created edge of the wetland. Approximately 0.32 acres of the southern corner of Wetland #4 is proposed for an impact to facilitate clearing for visibility, the development of a bunker complex, and the routing of the cart path. (Impact #4 - Revised Permit Drawings -Page 4, Appendix D) The Applicant also proposes to cross the intermittent RPW in two (2) locations that runs across the center of the property. Previously, this entire ditch was planned to be filled. Both crossings will utilize a 48 -inch reinforced concrete pipe and earthen fill over top. Impact #5 will require 126 If of permanent impacts and Impact #6 will require 132 if of permanent impacts. Table 1 below summarizes the currently proposed permanent impacts. Table 1. Summary of Wetland Impacts Currently Proposed Permanent Wetland Impacts Impact Wetland Area Activity Acre or if 1 5 Road ROW/Golf Course Hole #17 2.27 ac 2 5 Golf Course Hole #18 0.38 ac 3 5 Golf Course Hole #19 0.12 ac 4 4 Golf Course Hole #8 0.32 ac 5 Intermittent RPW Culverted Road Crossing #1 126 if 6 Intermittent RPW Culverted Road Crossing #2 132 if Totals 3.09 ac 2581f The Applicant also proposes to remove one 48 -inch culvert located in Joyce Creek at a farm road crossing in the southeast corner of the project (Temporary Impact #1). A drainage weir and outfall protection will be constructed in adjacent uplands to convey water from golf course Lake A. The side slopes of this new drainage feature will be graded so that they do not impact the portion of the Joyce Creek channel within USACE jurisdictions. This jurisdictional limit is located approximately 50 feet downstream of the limits of grading (Sheets 8-9 of Revised Permit Drawings, Appendix D). A revised impacts table dated March 2019, Table 8 included in Appendix D presents an approximate side-by-side comparison of the currently proposed impacts to impacts previously proposed nearby. Based on concerns and comments from agencies after the May 2018 Permit Application, the applicant has reduced impacts associated with the project by 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC March 12, 2019 Page 6 of 13 26.71 acres of wetlands and 4,304 if of intermittent RPW.

The applicant has provided a very specific purpose to the project and has limited the geographic scope of the project to Camden County, North Carolina. Applicant Response: The location of the proposed project is limited to the County's demand for the services as detailed in the project's Purpose and Need. A letter of support from Camden County's Director of Planning & Community Development Department was included in the original permit application package. Per the off-site alternatives analysis, the location of the project is also constrained by several factors. 2. The applicant has not provided an adequate alternatives analysis for the proposed project. a. The applicant used criteria that was not directly tied to the project purpose when evaluating alternative sites including: access to potable water, access to sanitary sewer, and compatibility with local zoning. Although these criteria are relevant, it must be pointed out that a previous developer -built utility infrastructure to the selected parcel and the selected parcel was rezoned to fit this type of development making these criteria not insurmountable obstacles to achieving the project purpose. Applicant Response: Per the enclosed Utility Installation Chronology exhibit (Appendix E), water and sewer lines have been installed in the vicinity of the project as well as directly adjacent to the property over a period of several years. A summary chronology is as follows: • Tanglewood development is proposed, but Camden County rejects the plan in favor of a Smart Growth multi -use development around 2000. • Based on Google Earth aerial photography, Sander's Crossing and Wharf's Landing residential developments and associated utilities are installed between 2003 and 2005 immediately south of Camden Plantation. • From 2002 to 2006 current applicant Boyd Homes works with Camden County to plan a Smart Growth mixed-use development. • In 2006, Boyd Homes installs sewer lines along McPherson Road to the north and east of proposed Camden Plantation development, extending from the Wharf's Landing development. The distance between the terminus of existing utilities from Wharf's Landing to the Camden Plantation parcel is approximately 1,000 FT, not a significant distance or cost for Boyd Homes. • Camden Plantation plans submitted to Camden County for approval in 2007. • In 2007, sewer force main is installed by Camden County along U.S. Route 17 extending from Wharf's Landing to just south of the North Carolina -Virginia Border. • In 2007, Camden County extends sewer line from Eco -Industrial Park (northwest of Camden Plantation parcel) east along McPherson Road to a lagoon. • In 2008, Camden Plantation property is rezoned as a Planned Unit Development (PUD). b. The applicant has not considered the alternative of constructing a residential and commercial mixed-use development without a golf course, as this could potentially qualify other parcels 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC March 12, 2019 Page 8 of 13 identified in the applicants' proposed alternatives and would still meet the applicant's stated purpose. Applicant Response: The golf course is an essential element to the entire development's design and County's needs, as described in the Project Purpose and Need. 3. The applicant has not provided a detailed avoidance and minimization plan for the proposed project. No alternative layouts were proposed, nor were designs without the inclusion of the golf course. Applicant Response: As stated in the above response to the USACE regarding avoidance and minimization, the Applicant has redesigned the development to greatly reduce the amount of permanent wetland impacts from 29.80 acres to 3.09 acres and permanent impacts to an intermittent RPW from 4,5621f to 2581f while keeping the standard -size 18 -hole golf course which essential to the viability of Camden Plantation. 4. The applicant states the proposed project will have no impact on the Great Dismal Swamp because of the stormwater management plan, however no further information was provided. The Division will be requesting additional technical information from the applicant and requests that the USACE also consider this additional information during the review of the application. Applicant Response: The pre- and post- hydrology model output to support the Section 408 submittal supports our assertion that the project will not impact the Great Dismal Swamp. See Appendix F. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 9 of 13 Letter from the NCDWR dated July 18, 2018 (Appendix A): Title 15A NCAC 02H.0506 requires that a proposed activity has no practical alternative by demonstrating that, considering the potential for a reduction in size, configuration or density of the proposed activity and all alternative designs, the basic project purpose cannot be practically accomplished in a manner which would avoid or result in less adverse impact to wetlands. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) have not determined that the preferred alternative is the least environmentally damaging practical alternative (LEDPA). The Division cannot review the preferred alternative until the USACE determines that this alternative is the LEDPA. Upon the USACE's determination, please provide correspondence from the USACE indicating which alternative is selected as the LEDPA. Applicant Response: Following USACE review of the responses herein and the Revised Permit Drawings, the Applicant will provide correspondence from the USACE that the currently proposed Preferred Alternative is the LEDPA. 2. If the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requests a response to any comments received as a result of the Public Notice, please provide the Division with a copy of your response to the USACE. [15A NCAC 02H. 0502(c)]. Applicant Response: No comments, other than those by agencies addressed herein, were received by the USACE during the Public Notice period. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 10 of 13 Letter from the USFWS dated June 19, 2018 (Appendix A): The Service appreciates the general avoidance and minimization measures taken on the site to limit wetland impacts. However, we note that the wetlands that were avoided are proposed to be surrounded by lots, roads, or water features that may cause indirect effects in the long term. Wetlands 2, 3, and 4 are proposed to be cut through the center, fragmenting the remaining portions that were avoided. Some of the wetlands to remain will be bordered on one or more sides by water features dug to a much lower elevation, which may adversely affect the hydrology of the wetland. It doesn't appear that impacts to the avoided wetlands are considered in the public notice. We appreciate that the remaining wetlands will be preserved by conservation easements; however, we recommend that mitigation credit not be provided for the preservation of these areas due to fragmentation and potential indirect or long-term impacts to hydrology, habitat, and water quality from the surrounding project components. Applicant Response: Per the Revised Permit Drawings (Appendix D), impacts to Wetland Areas 2 and 3 have been entirely avoided and impacts to Wetland Area 4 have been greatly reduced from 10.91 acres to 0.32 acres. The single impact area within Wetland Area 4 occurs on the eastern edge and will therefore not divide the avoided wetlands. Potential secondary hydrologic impacts from water features have also been minimized. No water features are located adjacent to Wetland Area 4. Wetland Areas 1, 2, and 3 are separated from the water features by the golf cart path, major roadways, the existing intermittent RPW, or a combination of those elements. The Applicant also no longer proposes to use the avoided wetlands as a source of mitigation credits. Instead, the Applicant will coordinate with a private mitigation bank and/or the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality's Division of Mitigation Services to purchase credits or pay an in -lieu fee. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 11 of 13 Letter from the NCWRC dated July 9, 2018 (Appendix A): 1. The NCWRC has reviewed the public notice and is concerned with the amount of wetland acres proposed to be impacted. Our agency participated in a NC Department of Environmental Quality scoping meeting with the applicant and several other state and federal agencies in 2017. Our staff noted the amount of impacts and stated impacts needed to be further minimized and recommended the applicant consider development recommendations from the NCWRC's Green Growth Toolbox (http://ncwildli e.org/Conservin /Programs/Green-Growth-Toolbox/About-GGT) to incorporate wildlife friendly options in the development design. Review of the public notice has shown the current proposal had reduced wetland impacts by 4.43 acres from the earlier proposal. However, the remaining wetland impact acreage should still be minimized prior to any acceptance of mitigation. The wetland reduction was accomplished with the redesign of some residential lots that contained wetlands. This did not significantly alter the design or layout of the development. An alternate layout that rearranges the golf course design or removes roadside commercial development may lead to more wetland impact reductions and is recommended. Wetlands provide important habitat opportunities for numerous game and non -game wildlife species. They also serve as an important filtration system for stormwater runoff. These opportunities are not matched by the design of the stormwater treatment system within the golf course and residential development. Open water spaces may provide areas for some aquatic species, but their quality and varied habitats are not equal to those of wetlands and streams. Anadromous species, such as striped bass and blue back herring, utilize the waters of Joyce Creek and the Dismal Swamp Canal and would not be provided any benefits from the filling of wetlands and creation of open water ponds. The conversion of almost 600 acres in this area to • development also removes a large area of land that serves as terrestrial wildlife habitat and travel corridor along US Highway 17 and other large contiguous lands in the area. In general, the NCWRC does not believe appropriate avoidance and minimization of wetland impacts has been demonstrated. We request the applicant redesign the development layout if the project remains in this location. Consideration should be given to impacts imposed upon the Dismal Swamp State Park and the Dismal Swamp Canal that provide public access and cultural benefits to citizens as well as their benefits to wildlife. Applicant Response: Please see our responses above to the USACE and to NCDWR pertaining to avoidance and minimization of wetland impacts. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 12 of 13 Letter from the NCSHPO dated July 5, 2018 (Appendix A): We have reviewed the application for wetland impacts associated with the construction of the proposed Camden Plantation development submitted by Boyd Homes Inc. of Virginia. While no properties eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) are known to be on the tract, it has never been surveyed to determine whether they are present. Therefore, we cannot concur that no historic properties will be affected at this time. We recommend that a comprehensive archaeological survey be performed by a professional archaeological consultant over the tract to determine if archaeological resources are present and to assess the significance of any discoveries as they relate to NRHP criterion. The survey and resulting archaeological report should follow the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology Archaeological Investigation Standards and Guidelines. The report and appropriate site forms should be forwarded to us for review and comment as soon as they are available and well in advance of any construction activities. Applicant Response: As a preliminary step, the Applicant retained the services of Circa— Cultural Resources Management, LLC (Circa) to prepare a Management Summary for the project. Circa— conducted a review of historic maps, search of the NCSHO's historic and cultural resource online database, and performed an on-site walkover survey. In September 2018, Circa— staff walked the site in transects and documented conditions using photography, soil analysis, and shovel tests for artifacts. During the Site survey, no objects of historical or cultural significance were found. Circa— also concluded that given the Site's location on ditched, low, previously -hydric soils on level flats and distance from dry soils and water, the possibility of finding historic resources, and in particular Native American ones, is considered to be low. As a result of their research and field assessment, Circa— did not recommend additional archaeological work. A copy of the Management Summary by Circa— is included in Appendix G. Because of the significant reduction in impacts to Waters, thus the likely reduction in the size of the Permit Area, the need for the comprehensive archaeological survey recommended above by the NCSHO, is not anticipated. 1008 Old Virginia Beach Road, Suite 200 • Virginia Beach • Virginia • 23451 Phone: 757 963 2008 • www.kerrenv.com Mr. Dave Lekson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 12, 2019 Camden Plantation, Camden County, NC Page 13 of 13 Section 408 Materials Requested by the USACE on June 13 and 19, 2018: Based on input from the USACE regarding Section 408 requirements, the project is providing the following information in Appendix F: • Existing Conditions - Rainfall/Runoff modeling showing flow hydrographs that leave the proposed development site that discharge into either the Dismal Swamp Canal (DSC) and/or Joyce Creek. • With Project Condition - Rainfall/Runoff modeling showing flow hydrographs that leave the proposed development site that discharge into either the DSC and/or Joyce Creek. • Analysis of various Joyce Creek water levels and their effect on the drainage system for the proposed development.

The applicant has provided a very specific purpose to the project and has limited the geographic scope of the project to Camden County, North Carolina. 2. The applicant has not provided an adequate alternatives analysis for the proposed project. a. The applicant used criteria that was not directly tied to the project purpose when evaluating alternative sites including: access to potable water, access to sanitary sewer, and compatibility with local zoning. Although these criteria are relevant, it must be pointed out that a previous developer built utility infrastructure to the selected parcel and the selected parcel was rezoned to fit this type of development making these criteria not insurmountable obstacles to achieving the project purpose. b. The applicant has not considered the alternative of constructing a residential and commercial mixed-use development without a golf course, as this could potentially qualify other parcels identified in the applicants' proposed alternatives and would still meet the applicant's stated purpose. 3, The applicant has not provided a detailed avoidance and nninimization plan for the proposed project.

Lekson, Chief Washington Regulatory Field Office 2447 West Fifth Street Washington, NC 27889 Subject; 'Camden Plantation Action ID No. SAW -2015-00397 Dear Mr, Lekson: RECEIVED U -S. ARMY CORPS EUG Washington RegUWWY Rd orc This letter provides the comments of the U. S. Fish and. Wildlife Service (Service) on the June 7, 2018 public notice_ for Camden Plantation. The applicant, Mr. Ken Merner, of Boyd Domes; has applied for authorization ,�o impact 28.9 acres of wetlands and 4,552 linear feet of waters of the U. . to construct Camden Plantation, a 598 acre mixed-use residential and commercial deve. oprreent with recreational amenities located on the east side of U. S. Highway 17, north of South Mills, in Camden County, North Carolina. These comments are submitted in accordance with the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 561-667d). Comments related to the FWCA are to be used in your determination of compliance with 404(b)(1) guidelines (49 CFR'230) and in your public interest review (33 CFR 320.4) in relation to the protection of fish and wildlife resources. Additional comments are provided regarding the District Engineer's determination of project impacts pursuant to Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act {ESA} of 1973, as amended (1.6 U.&C. 1531-1543). Project Area and Proposed Activities The project area is a large parcel, across U.S. 17 from the Great Dismal Swamp State Park Visitor Center. According to the public notice, the applicant proposes to develop Camden Plantation in four phases, involving the construction of approximately 1,750 new residential units, associated roads and utilities infrastructure, a commercial center with a minimum of 160,000 square feet of retaillcommerciWofhce space, an 18 -hole golf course, and other recreational amenities (tennis, swimming, trail and park system). Anticipated services to be provided include a grocery store and complimentary retail business, medical/dental offices, and general office space. The project will impact a total 2 of 4,562 linear feet of waters of the United States and 28.90 acres of nontidal wetlands, including the permanent loss of 27.96 acres of palustrine forested wetlands and the conversion of 0.94 acres of palustrine forested wetlands to palustrine emergent wetlands. Federally Protected Species If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species known to be present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. The Service has reviewed available information on federally -threatened or endangered species known to occur in Camden County, Species occurring near the project area include the red -cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) (RCW) and the northern long-eared bat (Myodas septentrionaiis). The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) has determined that the project may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect the RCW, The Corps has determined that the project may affect, and is likely to adversely affect the northern long-eared bat, but the agency is relying on the provisions of the ESA Section 4(d) rule and incidental take is not prohibited. According to the public notice, the site was logged in the early 1990s and is currently in agricultural and silvicultural production. The wooded areas are primarily vegetated with a mixed pine -hardwood assemblage characteristic of outer coastal plain flatwoods including loblolly pine, red maple, sweetgum, water oak, laurel oak, and swamp white oak tree species. Because the site does not appear to contain older, larger pine trees, and has been largely managed for agricultural and silvicultural production, the Service concurs with the Corp's determination that the project, may affect, but is not likely to affect the RCW. Because of the proposal for tree removal to develop the site, the proposed project may affect the northern long-eared bat, Since the proposed project site is greater than 150 feet frena a known roost tree and the project does not require prohibited intentional take, the project has met the criteria for the 4(d) rule. Any associated take is therefore exempt. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the ESA have been satisfied for this project, Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if. (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2) this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review, or. (3) a new species is listed'or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action. 4 P Service Concerns The Service appreciates the general avoidance and minimization measiues taken on the site to limit wetland impacts. However, we note that the wetlands that were avoided are proposed to be surrounded by lots, roads, or water features that may cause indirect effects in the long term. Wetlands 2, 3, and 4 are proposed to be cut through the center, fragmenting the remaining portions that were avoided. Some of the wetlands to remain will be bordered on one or more sides by water features dug to a much lower elevation, which may adversely affect the hydrology of the wetland. It doesn't appear that impacts to the avoided wetlands are considered in the public notice. We appreciate that the remaining wetlands will be preserved by conservation easements; however, we recommend that mitigation credit not be provided for the preservation of these areas due to fragmentation and potential indirect or long-term impacts to hydrology, habitat, and water quality from the surrounding project components. The Ser -vice appreciates the opportunity to comment on this public notice.

Dunn, Coastal Coordinator Habitat Conservation DATE: July 9, 2018 SUBJECT: Public Notice for Inert Merner, Boyd Homes, Camden County, North Carolina. SAW -2015-00317 Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) reviewed the public notice with regard to impacts on fish and wildlife resources. The project site is a 598 -acre site off the east side of US Highway 17 North, approximately three miles south of the Virginia border, across from the Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center, north of South Mills, NC. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act, as amended, and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.) and Coastal Area Management Act (G.5. 1 13A-100 through 113 A-128), as amended. The applicant proposes to develop a mixed-use residential and commercial development including 1,750 residences, a golf course, trail system, and numerous undetailed retail 1 commercial units. The site was logged in the early 1900's and is currently in agriculture and silviculture production. There are extensive ditches in the property to remove water from the property with a perennial RPW along the southern boundary that directs water west to the Dismal Swamp Canal and east to Cypress Run, a tributary of Joyce Creel.. Witlwt the 598 -acre project area ate 46.1.4 acres of wetlands. To facilitate the development proposal, the applicant proposes to impact 4,562' of waters of the United States and 28.90 wetland acres. The Dismal Swamp Canal is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is all active project of the US Army Corps of Engineers. Joyce Creek, the receiving waters of Cypress Run is also an active project of the US Army Corps of Engineers and is designated an anadromous fish spawning area (AFSA) by the NCWRC. The NCWRC has reviewed the public notice and is concerned with the amount of wetland acres proposed to be impacted. Our agency participated in a NC Department of Environmental Quality scoping -meeting with the applicant and several other state and federal agencies in 2017. Our staff noted the amount of impacts and stated impacts needed to he further m inimized and recornmended the applicant consider Mailing Address: Habitat Conservation • 1721 Mail Service Center * Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 707-0220 e Fax: (919) 707-0028 13 Ken Menier. Camden Plantation 2 July 9.2018 SAW -2015-00317 development recommendations from the NCWRC's Green Growth Toolbox (htt ://ncwildlife.or ConserviliPro rams/Green-Gro-tvth-1 oolbox/About-GGT) to incorporate wildlife friendly options in the development design. Review of the public notice has shown the current proposal had reduced wetland impacts by 4.43 acres from the earlier proposal. However, the remaining wetland impact acreage should stili be minimized prior to any acceptance of mitigation. The wetland reduction was accomplished with the redesign of some residential lots that contained wetlands. This did not significantly alter the design or layout of the development. An alternate layout that rearranges the golf course design or removes roadside commercial development may lead to more wetland impact reductions and is reconunended. Wetlands provide important habitat opportunities for numerous game and non -game wildlife species. They also serve as an important filtration system for stormwater runoff. These opportunities are not matched by the design of the stormwater treatment system within the golf course and residential development. Open water spaces may provide areas for some aquatic species, but their quality and varied Habitats are not equal to those of wetlands and streams. Anadromous species, such as striped bass and blue back herring, utilize the waters of Joyce Creek and the Dismal Swamp Canal and would not be provided any benefits from the filling of wetlands and creation of open water ponds. The conversion of almost 600 acres in this area to development also removes a large area of land that serves as terrestrial Wildlife habitat and travel corridor along US Highway 17 and other large contiguous lands in the area. In general, the NCWRC does not believe appropriate avoidance and minimization of wetland impacts has � been demonstrated. We request the applicant redesign the development layout if the project remains in this location. Consideration should be given to impacts imposed upon the Dismal Swamp State Park and the Dismal Swamp Canal that provide public access and cultural benefits to citizens as well as their benefits to wildlife.

This control of access break is to accommodate a new road to be constructed to access a major new community in Camden County to be known as Camden Plantation. Camden Plantation is a 600+ acre community that will eventually include a commercial district with retail, office, and restaurant uses, an 18 hole golf course open to the public, and over 1,700 single family and multi -family residences. The commercial district is also anticipated to include public uses, such as a post office and satellite office for the sheriff's department. This planned community has been approved by the Camden County Board of Commissioners and is an important part of their plan for smart growth in the County. Economic development is vital to Camden County. As a rare county without even one grocery store, Camden has almost no sales tax base. Camden Plantation will provide a vital business development area with sewer in the northern end of the County. The importance of this development to the County is reflected in the enclosed resolution in support of the control of access break which was adopted by the Board of Commissioners. Jerry Jennings Division Engineer July 21, 2008 Page 2 Without this control of access break, ehicular traffic to and from Camden Plantation will all be funneled to McPherson Road and Cul pper Road, both of which are narrow roads without intersections designed for the level of anticipated to be generated by the growth of Camden County. The intersection planned by Camden Plantation, as shown in the attached documentation, will address these important safety issues. This work will be done without cost to either NCDOT or Camden County. The proposed new road will align with an existing median break with turn lanes. It also coincides with an existing farm access to the property, which has been in use for some time. These features make this location the natural choice for an additional intersection with US Highway 17 to accommodate the anticipated growth of northern Camden County. In support of our request, we have attached the following items: • Control of Access Revision Form • Vicinity Map — Figure 1 • NCDOT Roadway Sheets 1 & 16 from Project # 8.1112204 • Camden Plantation Land Use Plan — Figure 2 • Intersection Layout Plan — Figure 3 • Aerial of the C/A Break Location — Figure 4 • Ordinance No. 2008-07-02, Resolution Of The Camden County Board Of Commissioners In Support Of Vehicular Access On Highway US 17 For The Development Of The Mixed Use Community Known As Camden Plantation.

TO ESTABLISH ADEQUATE FAIRWAY WIDTH AND TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE AREA FOR DRAINAGE ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE FAIRWAY, AN AREA OF 0.12 ACRES IS PROPOSED FOR IMPACT. THE AREA IMPACTED WOULD ALSO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT WIDTH FOR A NORMAL LANDING AREA AS WELL AS CREATING IMPROVED VISIBILITY. IF THIS 0.12 ACRE IMPACT WERE NOT INCORPORATED INTO THE DESIGN OF THIS HOLE, THE LANDING AREA WOULD BE NARROWER THAN STANDARD CRITERIA, RESULTING IN IMPOSSIBLE SECOND SHOT, FOR TEE SHOTS HIT TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FAIRWAY. ADDITIONALLY, WITH THE FLAT TERRAIN AND THE EXTREME PROJECTION OF THIS CORNER OF WETLAND #5 INTO THIS FAIRWAY, IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY AWKWARD FOR ADEQUATE DRAINAGE TO BE DEVELOPED. THIS IMPACT WOULD CLEAR-CUT THE ENTIRE AREA. THE CLEAR-CUT AREA WOULD BE GRADED INCLUDING SWALE DEVELOPMENT FOR DRAINAGE AND 35 PERCENT INCORPORATED INTO THE FAIRWAY. THIS IMPACT WOULD ALSO BE CRITICAL TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE TURF ON A PORTION OF THIS FAIRWAY.

(Circa) conducted a walkover of the approximately 600 -acre Camden Plantation located just south of the Virginia border in South Mills, North Carolina (Figure 1). The development is Camden County's first ever, premier master -planned community with homes to meet the needs and desires of most, ranging from apartments to townhomes to smaller carriage -style homes, and larger manor -style homes with an 18 -hole golf course that features a continuous -course cart path system and a full- service practice fairway. The project area is bordered by Route 17 to the west, rural residential land to the north, south, and east, and to the north by McPherson Road. Carol D. Tyrer, Principal Investigator, completed the walkover. Dawn M. Muir, Architectural Historian and Historian, completed the historic research and graphics. A,a �w WA )7 ' :s$ Y 5 1 Figure 1. Approximate project location, South Mills and Lake Drummond Southeast USGS quads. 1 Environmental Background The primary reasons for incorporating environmental studies into archaeological projects are: to learn of possible environmental constraints or lack of constraints; to determine the presence or absence of critical resources that might have influenced site distribution, etc.; and to discover environmental factors—erosion, deposition, subsidence, and historic land use patterns—that might influence the integrity of archaeological sites once they have formed. Keeping these objectives in mind, a brief environmental summary of the project area is provided below. The project area is located in the tidewater region on the Coastal Plain of North Carolina and is comprised of two agricultural fields and forested areas just to the east of the Dismal Swamp Welcome Center, in northeastern Camden County, North Carolina. Numerous man-made ditches placed roughly west to east and north to south help aid in the drainage of the land. However, even with the ditches, portions of the project area are still heavily ponded during rain episodes. Elevations across the tract range from 17 feet to 13 feet above mean sea level (AMSL). No streams or rivers are located within the tract. The project site can be accessed by Route 17 and McPherson Road. Aerial photos from 1990 to the present show little change within the project area during the last 27 years (Figures 2 - 8).

Current (2018) aerial view of project area, from Google Earth. 5 Soils At least seven different soil types and soil type variants exist within the project area (Natural Resources Conservation Service [NRCS] 2018). These include Tomotley fine sandy loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Roanoke silt loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Perquimans silt loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Portsmouth fine sandy loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Nimmo sandy loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Augusta fine sandy loam, 0% to 2% slopes; Udorthents, loamy (Figure 9 and Table 1). Each of these types and variants are described below including references to drainage, hunting and gathering potential, and horticultural and agricultural productivity potential. Further, conclusions regarding the suitability of each for historic and Native American occupation and archaeological site probability are also explained. Soils maps and associated data provide an analysis of soil types within a geographic area. Despite comprehensive and detailed coverage of most areas by soils surveyors, researchers often miss microenvironments due to their small footprints. Unfortunately, resource rich microenvironments were often common sites of cultural activity. As such, this analysis of archaeological potential is a "best -guess" using the best available data. Well -drained, agriculturally- and horticulturally -productive soils proximal to transportation corridors were the best choices for historic period occupation. Secondary areas, such as those containing wet soils and acid soils, after improvement such as drainage and liming may have also been suitable choices for historic occupation. No navigable waterways exist within the project area; thus, water travel is not a factor in the site probability analysis of this tract. Areas of wet soils may have been attractive to Native American cultures. In these areas, edible herbaceous plant species may have been gathered and faunal species browsing these areas may have been hunted with success. Well -drained soils proximal to these resource -rich areas may have made adequate hunting and gathering campsites where the hunted and gathered resources were processed. These sites would have left an observable archaeological footprint. Little archaeological evidence would be located within the wet areas, the immediate locale of resource procurement. Areas containing gravelly soils may have been especially attractive to stone tool -manufacturing Native American cultures, but the level of attraction may have depended on the type and quality of the gravels available in these locations. Well -drained soils proximal to quarry -able, gravel - rich areas would have made adequate lithic material procurement campsites but in this case, archaeological materials may be located at both the campsites and the quarry sites.

Where wooded, this soil can support loblolly pine, red maple, sweet gum, water oak, willow oak, sweet bay, red bay, bayberry, gall berry, reeds, and greenbrier. E3 Nimmo Soil (NoA) Nimmo soil a very -deep, poorly -drained, moderately -permeable soil with a slow surface runoff that formed in loamy and sandy marine and fluvial sediments on marine terraces of the Coastal Plain (MRCS 2018). Solum thickness is 25 inches to 45 inches and depth to bedrock is over 60 inches in the extremely acid to strongly acid soil. This soil is mostly cultivated and can support corn, soybeans, small grains, truck crops, and pasture. Where wooded, the soil can support loblolly pine, willow oak, yellow poplar, red maple, water tupelo, sweet gum, black gum, and water oak. Understory species include inkberry, large gall berry, and southern bayberry. Augusta Soil (AtA) Augusta soils are very -deep, somewhat -poorly -drained, moderately -permeable soils formed in loamy alluvial sediments and located in the stream terraces of the Southern Piedmont and Upper Coastal Plain (MRCS 2018). Solum thickness ranges from 40 inches to 80 inches with a depth to bedrock greater than 60 inches. This soil has a seasonally high-water table between 12 inches and 24 inches from December to May. This soil is very strongly acid to moderately acid except where limed and features a slow surface runoff. This soil is mostly cultivated. Where cultivated, this soil supports corn, oats, soybeans, small grain, and pasture. Where wooded this soil supports white oak, red oak, post oak, loblolly pine, shortleaf pine, hickory, red maple, sweet gum, elm, American holly, flowering dogwood, sassafras, greenbrier, giant cane, and inkberry. Udorthents (Ud) Udorthents soils are generally -flat, level soils that are disturbed as a result of a combination of materials excavated from borrow pits, soil cuts, and original soil remnants (MRCS 2018). These soils tend to be dense and moderately to slowly permeable in their uppermost levels and can support lawns, gardens, and landscaping, though they are sometimes contaminated by various toxic materials. Previous Research Circa— performed an archival search for the project area using the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology records on September 2, 2018. This research was completed to determine if historic resources exist within the project area boundaries. The search identified two archaeological resources and no architectural resources within a one -mile radius of the project area boundaries. Table 2 lists all of the resources within one mile of the project area boundaries. Figure 10 shows the approximate project area boundaries and resources within close proximity. Of the resources identified, no archaeological resources and no architectural resource were identified within the project area. Although there is no site number, the Great Dismal Swamp Canal is located to the west on the opposite side of Route 17 from the project area. Table 2.

Results and Summary This study was conducted to provide information on the current condition of the property, as well as to assess the potential for the presence of archaeological or architectural resources within the project area. Fieldwork was completed in September 2018 and included a pedestrian walkover of the tract to identify any obvious archaeological or architectural resources and the archaeological site potential of various landforms. The project area is located on level flats with multiple drainage ditches to aid in the conversion of the landform from wetlands to agricultural fields in the early 201h century. The area is currently either forested or overgrown, abandoned fields. All open, exposed areas were inspected for the presence of artifacts and signs of cultural features. Circa— walked the tract at 150 -foot intervals and the ground visibility was roughly 10% to 30% visible. A few modern oilcans and plastic water bottles were noted just to the east of Route 17. No other artifacts were noted during the walkover. In addition, judgmental shovel tests were excavated to sample the stratigraphy of the landforms. Sixteen judgmental shovel tests revealed one soil stratum above a sterile subsoil (Figure 17). In the agricultural fields, Stratum A ranged from approximately 0.87 feet to 0.96 feet thick and consisted of a medium grayish brown (7.5Y 2/2) sandy loam plowzone. Subsoil consisted of a saturated reddish brown (2.5YR 2/6) compact clay (Figure 18). In the forested areas, Stratum A ranged from approximately 0.65 feet to 0.78 feet thick and consisted of a medium grayish brown (7.5Y 2/2) sandy loam relic plowzone. Subsoil consisted of a saturated reddish brown (2.5YR 2/6) compact clay. It appeared that the forested areas were timbered at some time in the past. No artifacts were recovered from the shovel tests. Plates 1 through 27 in the attachments illustrate the current conditions of the project area. 13 Figure 17. Map showing shovel test locations.

Representative shovel test profiles. 14 A review of historic maps and soil surveys indicate that the project tract is comprised of previously -converted hydric soils and wetlands with the excavation of the drainage ditches in the early 20th century. The project area is part of an extensive flat in this area that consists of hydric soils, drained to convert the land into agricultural production. Even with the addition of the drainage ditches, Circa— noted that some of the project area was still in decline from the moisture retained in the soil and ponded on the ground surface during the initial and later site visit. Conclusion Given the project area's location on ditched, low, previously -hydric soils on level flats, and the distance from dry soils and water, the possibility of finding Native American resources on the project area is considered low. Most of the previously -identified Native American resources in the vicinity in both North Carolina and Virginia were found on elevated, dry soils adjacent to or along perennial stream channels. Given the project area's location on ditched, low, previously -hydric soils on level flats, and the distance from water and dry soils, the possibility of finding historic resources is considered low. The previously -identified historic resources in the vicinity in both North Carolina and Virginia were found on dry soils adjacent to or along perennial stream channels and/or early transportation routes. The historic map research, the walkover, and limited shovel testing did not record any resources within the project tract. These results are similar to the previous surveys located nearby in Virginia on similar, historically -drained hydric soils. No further archaeological work is recommended. 15 7� 5 27 26 10 16 W Photo location /// _ ti . 19 * 23 20 . arU 21 ��`• 1 22 i �17 14 t� 15 15 13 L` 7� 5 4 10 16 W Photo location /// _ Google Earth 'C Project Area Photographs Plate 1.
