From an environmental perspective, the APE falls within a residential ove4ike setting within North Carolina's Blue Ridge physiographic province, and is composed primaril f two (2) soil types: Dellwood cobbly sandy loam, O�3% slopes, occasionally flooded (DeA) and aunook loam, 8A5% slopes, stony (SdC).
