We received your letter dated October 15, 2018 (received on October 18, 2018), requesting our
commenis on the subject project. The following comments are provided in accordance with the
provisions of section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-
1543) (Act).
According to our records and a review of the information you provided, no federally listed
species or their habitats occur in the project area. Therefore, we believe the requirements under
section 7 of the Act are fulfilled. However, obligations under section 7 of the Act 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 is determined that may be affected by the identified action.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide these comments. If we can be of assistance or if you
have any questions, please contact Mr. Allen Ratzlaff of our staff at 828/258-3939, Ext. 229. In
any future correspondence concerning this project, please reference our Log Number 4-2-18-379.
