E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
2g. Total Permanent Wetland Impact
0.089
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:

Due to the location of the on site wetland, opportunities to completely avoid these areas were limited. Impacts to site surface waters associated withthe
proposed development were limited through site selection location, design, location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes and design of
the concave BMP. Surface drainage areas were analyzed with existing and proposed grades to ensure adequate hydrology will be maintained (1.68
CFS of drainage flow based on a 10 yr event). The remaining onsite wetland area will be supplemented with additional wetland species.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Construction techniques will implement approved erosion control methods to avoid/minimize impacts to onsite/adjacent offsite receiving conveyances.
2:1 slopes are used where feasible and allowed by the City of Charlotte. An concave shape was incorporated to the west side of the dry detention
basin to conform to the adjacent wetland below, the basin incorporates a retaining wall with temporary water storage located along the face of the
wall.This pond storage and wall design approach minimizes impacts to the adjacent wetland.

GENERAL LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION:
The Elm Lane site (12.6 acres) is located just west of Elm Lane, and just north of
Robinson Forest Drive in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. It can be found
on the Weddington, NC USGS Topographic Quadrangle Map; latitude is 35.0510
N, longitude is -80.8178 W. The topography consists of upland flat grading into
gentle slopes, with the elevation ranging from 650 to 690 ft. (Figure 1). Two
church buildings and parking lots with expansive turf grass lawn and planted
small trees occupy the eastern portion of the site, and the western portion is
covered with a secondary growth, disturbed mixed pine/hardwood forest. There
is a dirt -gravel road leading to a cell phone tower in the northern section of the
site.

Elm Lane Site -Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
A total of three plant species with federal protection are listed as potentially
occurring in Mecklenburg County:
Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), listed as Federally
Endangered, is typically found in open habitats which historically have
been maintained by wildfires and grazing bison and elk herds. Now most
occurrences are limited to roadsides, woodland and field edges, and utility
rights-of-way (ROW).
• Smooth Coneflower (Echinacea laevigata), listed as Federally
Endangered, is typically found in open woods, cedar barrens, roadsides,
clear cuts, dry limestone bluffs and power line rights-of-way, requiring
abundant sunlight and little competition from other plant species.
• Michaux's Sumac (Rhus michauxii), listed as Federally Endangered,
requires habitat of sandy forests and woodland edges. This species
requires periodic fire as a part of its ecology.
A total of four animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially
occurring in Mecklenburg County:
Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), protected by the Bald and Golden
Eagle Protection Act, typically inhabits forested areas near large bodies of
open water such as lakes, marshes, seacoasts and rivers, where there are
suitable fish populations and tall trees for nesting and roosting.
Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), listed as Federally
Endangered, is restricted to cool, clean, well -oxygenated water. Stable,
silt- free stream beds are required for this species. Typically stable areas
occur where the stream banks are well -vegetated with trees and shrubs.
Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis), listed as Federally
Threatened. During summer, northern long-eared bats roost singly or in
colonies underneath bark, in cavities, or in crevices of both live and dead
trees. Males and non -reproductive females may also roost in cooler
places, like caves and mines. It has also been found, rarely, roosting in
structures like barns and sheds. Northern long-eared bats spend winter
hibernating in caves and mines, called hibernacula.
Rusty -patched Bumble Bee (Bombus affinis), listed as Federally
Endangered, live in colonies that include a single queen and female
workers. Rusty -patched Bumble Bees historically occupied grasslands
and tallgrass prairies. Bumble bees need areas that provide nectar and
pollen from flowers, nesting sites (underground and abandoned rodent
cavities or clumps of grasses), and overwintering sites for hibernating
queens (undisturbed soil).

Elm Lane Site -Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
RESULTS:
Two church buildings and parking lots with expansive turf grass lawn and planted
small trees occupy the eastern portion of the site, and the western portion is
covered with a secondary growth, disturbed mixed pine/hardwood forest.
The disturbed mixed pine/hardwood forest includes canopy trees of Short -leaf
Pine (Pinus echinata), Willow Oak (Quercus phellos), White Oak (Q. alba),
Southern Red Oak (Q. falcata), Sweet Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Tulip
Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), and Red Maple (Acer rubra). Sub -canopy
species include Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), Southern Magnolia (Magnolia
grandiflora), Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), Flowering Dogwood (Cornus
florida), and American Holly (Ilex opaca). The shrub layer is dominated by
Russian Olive (Elaeagnus umbellate). Vines observed were Japanese
Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), Poison Ivy
(Toxicodendron radicans), and Catbrier (Smilax sp.). The herb layer is sparse
and includes Christmas Fern (Polystichum acrostichoides), Ebony Spleenwort
(Asplenium platyneuron), Japanese Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum), Panic
Grass (Panicum sp.), False Nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica), and Knotweed
(Polygonum sp.).
Transitional areas along the tree line are dominated by common weedy species
including Ragwort (Packera sp.), Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus),
Goldenrod (Solidago sp.), Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), Rabbit Tobacco
(Gnapthalium obtusifolium), Beggars Ticks (Desmodium sp.), and Dogfennel
(Eupatorium capillifolium).
Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results
All potential habitats for Schweinitz's Sunflower, Michaux's Sumac and
Smooth Coneflower along the roadside, transitional areas and woods
edges were examined and none of these species were present.
No habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there were no sightings
nor were any nesting sites observed.
• There are no suitable streams on site with the habitat characteristics
required to support populations of the Carolina Heelsplitter. Based on
existing documentation, Carolina Heelsplitter populations have not been
previously identified within this basin. No individuals were observed during
the survey nor would any be expected on-site.
• Comparing this site location to the USFWS Asheville office's website
(http://www.fws.gov/asheville/htmis/project review/NLEB in WNC.html) it
appears that the site meets the "exempt" criteria which requires no further
Wetlands and Environmental Planning Group Leonard S. Rindner, PLLC.

Elm Lane Site - Threatened /Endangered /Protected Species Evaluation
action under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for the Northern
Long-eared Bat.
• Comparing this site location to the USFWS Range Map for Rusty -patched
Bumble Bee
(https://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/insects/rpbb/rpbbmap.htmi)
Mecklenburg County is in it's Historic Range, and as such, Section 7
consultation is not needed. WEPG concludes that Rusty -patched Bumble
Bee is not present.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the site investigation and the review of available data, WEPG did not
identify any protected species occurring on the subject property. No further
investigation of the presence of protected species on this site is recommended at
this time.
