Version: May 2017 Page 3 Jurisdictional Determination Request F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One) ❑� I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminarX JD for the property identified herein. A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property. PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is "preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do not expire. ❑ I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein. An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years (subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05- 02). I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information to inform my decision. G. ALL REQUESTS Map of Property or Project Area.

(MMI) was retained by Eagle I Property Group LLC (Client) to prepare a jurisdictional stream and wetland delineation on a 3 lots totaling approximately 3 acres at 881 Derita Road and the two lots immediately to the east on Myint Lane in Concord, Cabarrus County, NC (Study Area). The Study Area is primarily the 3 lots totaling 3 acres. The purpose of the stream and wetland delineation report is to identify, flag and survey the jurisdictional streams and/or wetlands on the parcel in preparation for site development. This report is based on a site visit and web research, including National Wetland Inventory maps and the USDA Soil Survey of Cabarrus County (see all attached graphics). MMI scientists, including Richard Mogensen, PWS, conducted a site evaluation on November 20, 2018. During this evaluation, boundaries between upland and jurisdictional wetlands were marked with orange flagging tape while the stream is marked with blue flagging tape both sequentially numbered and surveyed with a GPS unit. A total of one stream (1221f) and one small wetland area (0.195 ac) were assessed. These areas are shown in bluelines and a cross- hatch shape polygon, respectively, on Figure 5. METHODOLOGY Wetland delineations were made in accordance with the U.S. Armorps of Engineers 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual (1987 Corps Manual) and the State of North Carolina's isolated wetlands rules. These manuals generally follow a three -parameter approach to making wetland delineations: hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils and hydrologic indicators. All three parameters normally must be present for an area to be considered a wetland under Section 404/1 of the Clean Water Act. Wetlands were classified according to the Cowardin System, as described in Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (1979). This is the 2 standard system of wetland classification used by most state and federal agencies. Stream assessments were conducted in accordance with the NCDEQ Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and Their Origins (version 4.11). Although procedures for making the determinations are standardized, judgments are sometimes required, depending on the strength or weakness of any of the defining parameters. In addition, transition areas between uplands and wetlands often exist, also requiring judgments as to the boundaries. Therefore, some adjustments to the boundaries may occur during a field review with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), NC Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). Vegetation Plant species observed at the Study Area were identified and the wetland indicator status for each species was determined from the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands (Region Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain). The indicator status notes the percentage of probability that the plant would occur in a wetland. The following are the indicator status designations: OBL — Obligate Wetland (> 99% probability) FACW — Facultative Wetland (>66% probability) FAC — Facultative (33% to 66% probability) FACU — Facultative Upland (1% to 3% probability) Results: The area delineated as wetlands has a predominance of facultative, facultative wet and/or obligate species according to the USFWS National Wetlands Inventory. For more details on vegetation data refer to the attached Wetland Data Forms. Soils A hydric soil is a soil that is saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions that favor hydrophytic vegetation. A hydric soil may either be drained or undrained, although a drained hydric soil may not continue to support wetland plants. According to the 1987 Corps Manual, only when a hydric soil supports hydrophytic vegetation and the area has indicators of wetland hydrology may the soil be referred to as a wetland soil. During this investigation, soil cores were taken, generally to a depth of 18 inches to determine whether or not wetland soils are present. Soil characteristics that were checked include composition, texture, color, chroma, value, odor and moisture regime of the soil. These characteristics are determined in the absence of direct sunlight and with a moistened sample. The "Munsell Soil Color Chart" is used to determine color and chroma. Results: The soils mapped on the property are primarily Cecil Sandy Loam (CcB2, CcD2) which are found on slopes from 2 to 15%. A small pocket of Enon Sandy Loam is mapped along the east end of Lot 3. In the wetland area we identified the hydric phase of Chewacla soil. For more details on the soils found onsite refer to the attached Wetland Data Forms. Hydrophytic Indicators According to the 1987 Corps Manual, an area must be periodically inundated or have saturated soils for a significant period of time during the growing season, typically between 5 and 12% of the growing season. Hydrologic indicators include, but are not limited to, blackened water, stained leaves, visual inundation, drift lines and hummocks, and wetland drainage patterns. 3 Hydrological characteristics observed on the Study Area were noted during the field investigation and are listed on the attached Wetland Data Forms. Results: Standing water was observed in the upper end of this headwater forested wetland. A high water table (within 3") was noted in other parts of the wetland area. For more details on the existing hydrologic indicators refer to the attached Wetland Data Forms. STUDY AREA DESCRIPTION The project Study Area is located at 881 Derita Road and two adjacent lots along Myint Lane, Concord, NC, Cabarrus County, North Carolina; latitude is 35' 24" 06.18 N, longitude is 80' 42" 49.07 W (Figure 1). The Study Area is bounded by Derita Road on the west, Myint Lane to the south, forest with one single-family house to the north and east. The Study Area is in a primarily industrial area surrounded by warehouses, small factories, scattered houses and open forest. The site contains one house facing Derita Road and the associated grassed lot with a few demolished buildings along the treeline. Two junk cars sit in the grassed lot. The adjacent two lots along Myint Lane are forested with some mature oaks and hickories as well as tulip poplar and dogwood. A small headwater wetland is located at the back of "Lot 2" and runs into "Lot 3" where a small intermittent stream begins and the wetland ends. The stream flows ultimately to the Rocky River which is in the Yadkin River Basin (HUC 03040105). Soils on the Study Area predominantly consist of well drained, sandy loams (Cecil & Enon) in the upland slopes with some areas of poorly drained, frequently flooded silty loam (Chewacla) along the bottomland (Figure 4). The topography on the Study Area moderately rises from 700 to 800 ft. (Figure 2). A majority of the surrounding area is characterized primarily by industrial, residential, developments, roads and some forest pockets. The uplands within the Study Area are dominated by mature forest including sweet gum, hickory, red oak, tulip poplar and flowering dogwood. The upland areas are steeply sloped and well drained while the lower areas are gently sloping and drain to a small stream which runs off site and flows into a perennial stream under Myint Lane. DELINEATED STREAMS & WETLANDS ON STUDY AREA Wetlands One forested headwater wetland was delineated on the Study Area located on the northeastern corner of Lots 2 & 3 and runs into Stream #1 which flows off the property at Lot 3. It is located mostly on the northeastern corner of the 3 -lot complex and is depicted on the attached delineation map (Figure 4). 4 Wetland #1 is a relatively small headwater forested wetland feature that is located above Stream #1 in a natural low flat topographic position. This wetland seems to stop when the surface flow becomes channelized at ST #1 and flows downslope. Hydrology concentrates at the upper end of the wetland. This wetland is a small (0.195 acre) low-lying flat feature which ponds water long enough in the winter and spring to develop hydric soil characteristics. It is dominated by native, bottomland, hardwood trees and has seasonal herbaceous wetland vegetation in the spring and summer. The Study Area is classified as PFO IA (forested) using the Cowardin Classification system. The wetland area is dominated by paw paw, red maple, green ash, and sweet gum with some tulip poplar. Streams The Study Area contains the one small intermittent stream which drains to the Rocky River and ultimately the Yadkin River (HUC 03040105) noted here as ST #1 on the attached delineation map (Figure 5). ST #1 is an intermittent stream located on the Lot 3 (eastern -most lot) and begins at the downslope end of Wetland #1. High groundwater drainage appears to collect up slope in Wetland #1, a relatively flat bottomland area then concentrates into a channel with an Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) at Stream #1. The stream is approximately 122 linear feet long before it leaves the property. This stream scores out as 25.5 on the DEQ SWTIC Form which is intermittent (typically jurisdictional) along most of its extent on the Study Area. The DEQ- DWR and the Corps have not verified the jurisdictional determination and may require seeing the Study Area to confirm MMI's opinion. CONSIDERATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT To verify this delineation, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the NC DEQ-DWR will need to visit the site. Once this report is approved by the Client, we will complete the Pre -JD request forms, DEQ stream forms & wetland data forms and submit to the agencies and request a site visit to verify the stream and wetland boundaries. This all can be done now or at the permitting stage of the project development referenced below. If fill will be placed in any of the wetland or stream areas, a US Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 Clean Water Act permit and NCDEQ Section 401 Water Quality Certification and/or state wetlands permit authorization may be required. Adherence to state and local water quality standards and procedures are also required as part of the permit process. Other local water quality and/or stormwater authorizations may be required due to the Study Area's location. If the project's impacts exceed North Carolina thresholds (0.10 acre for wetlands and 150 linear feet for streams), compensatory mitigation may be required. MMI can assist with any necessary Clean Water Act or Endangered Species Act permits and authorizations.
