Subject: Pre-Construction Notification for Nationwide Permits Nos. 39 and 14
1,000-Cell Close Security Prototypical Correctional Facility
Anson County, North Carolina PAYMENT
LAW Project No. 30100-0-0025
RECEIVED
Dear Mr. Davis:
On behalf of the North Carolina Department of Correction (NCDOC), and in cooperation with
Little & Associates Architects (LAA), enclosed please find completed Joint Forms with
accompanying figures for Nationwide Permits (NWP) Nos. 39 and 14 in the above-referenced
matter (Attachments A and B). The NCDOC has retained Law Engineering and Environmental
Services, Inc. (LAW) to provide wetlands and permitting services for this project. The NCDOC
has authorized LAW to act as its agent in this matter. An executed `Agent Certification of
Authorization' form is enclosed (Attachment C). The project area is located approximately 0.75
mile south of Prison Camp Road (SR 1121) and U.S. Hwy. 74 intersection, near the city of
Polkton (Attachment D - Figure 1). Since the proposed project will impact more than 1/10 acre
of an above-the-headwaters stream, this pre-construction notification (PCN) is being provided in
accordance with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) general conditions for NWP
No. 39 (Residential, Commercial, and Institutional Developments).
Background
1
LAA, on behalf of the NCDOC, has designed the proposed 80-acre correctional facility project in
Anson County, North Carolina. The Anson County Correctional Facility (ACCF) will be located
immediately adjacent to the existing Brown Creek Medium Security State Prison Facility as well as
close to the existing Anson County Minimum Security Correctional Center in Anson County. In

addition to building construction, the project entails grading as well as the construction of a parking
' lot, access road, sewage pump station, and stormwater management ponds.
The North Carolina prison population is projected to exceed prison capacity by the year 2001. This
bed shortage along with a trend toward more serious offense classes of inmates provides the basis
for this project. The purpose of this project is to help satisfy the NCDOC's need for additional
inmate space by providing a 1,000-cell facility that will accommodate 1,000 inmates.
Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S.
Jurisdictional waters of the U.S., depicted on Figure 3 in Attachment D, were delineated in the
field by LAW'S scientists on February 16, February 21 and February 22, 2000, using the Routine
On-Site Determination as described in the 1987 "Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation
Manual"], but have not yet been field verified by you. This submittal also constitutes a
submittal for a "Jurisdictional Determination" (JD) (Attachment D). The JD package includes a
Request for Jurisdictional Determination Form, a Site Location Map (Figure 1), a USDA Soil
Survey Map (Figure 2), Approximate Waters of the U.S. and Wetlands Boundary Maps (Figures
3 and 4), Routine Wetland Determination Forms, Intermittent Channel Evaluation Forms, North
Carolina Division of Water Quality Stream Classification Forms, and photographs. Waters of
the U.S. delineated on-site include three streams (Stream A, Stream B, and Stream C) totaling
approximately 2,241 linear feet (If) of stream channel, a 1.4-acre wetland (Wetland A), and a
' 0.2-acre braided wetland (Wetland B). These waters of the U.S. are part of the Yadkin-Pee Dee
River Basin, and are classified by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) as Class
C freshwaters. Wetland A is designated on the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) map as a
palustrine, unconsolidated bottom, permanently flooded impoundment (PUBHh) and appears as
' an open water pond on the Russellville, NC quadrangle, dated 1971. However, the earthen dam
associated with this impoundment was historically breached resulting in the formation of the
emergent-scrub/shrub wetland area (Attachment D - Photograph A). Wetland B is a braided
wetland with several interconnecting channels that display evidence of over bank flow. This
wetland is heavily wooded. Stream A flows on-site approximately 588 If and flows into and out

of Wetlands A and B. The perennial/important section of Stream A has average widths of four to
' six feet (measured from top of bank to top of bank) with a coarse sand to cobble substrate. The
approximate 520 If upstream portion of Stream A was assessed to be intermittent/unimportant
t (Attachment D - Photograph C). Stream B, which begins off-site and is located outside of the
proposed construction limits, is a perennial stream. The stream is located south and parallel to
' Wetland B and has an average width of three to four feet. Stream B is comprised of
approximately 150 If of unimportant stream channel and approximately 780 if of
perennial/important stream channel. Stream C, located along the western side of the proposed
construction limits is predominantly an unimportant stream channel based on the USACE
Intermittent Channel Evaluation Form (Attachment D - Photograph F). The northernmost onsite
portion of Stream C, which flows along the toe of a large graded area, can be characterized as a
largely v-shaped ditch-like drainage feature with average widths of two to three feet.
Approximately 421 If of unimportant stream channel including two small braided wetland areas
encompassing 0.05 acre (Attachment D - Photograph D) and 0.06 acre, respectively, eventually
flow into the perennial/important segment (242 If) of Stream C to the west (Attachment D -
Photographs B and E). An additional 60 if of unimportant stream channel forks from and
parallels the important portion of Stream C. All totaled, approximately 1.71 acres of wetlands
and 2,241 If of stream (1,090 if perennial/important and 1,151 If intermittent/unimportant) occur
on the subject property.
Cultural Resources and Protected Species
Correspondence from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), dated February 24, 2000,
revealed that there are no known recorded archaeological sites which would be affected by the
project (Attachment E.)
Coastal Carolina Research, Inc. of Tarboro, NC (CCR completed a cultural resources
literature/records review and site reconnaissance and walkover on the proposed project area in
April 2000. CCR's management summary revealed five areas that could potentially contain
archaeological resources. CCR recommended that shovel testing and/or surface surveying be
performed on those areas. Upon further review, of the five areas identified, one area was
' concluded to be outside of the proposed construction limits of the recommended alternative.

During site surveying efforts a small, unmapped cemetery located within the northern boundary
of the proposed construction limits of the ACCF was discovered. CCR performed deed research
to assist in determining the identity of the persons buried there. Deed documents associate the
early nineteenth century cemetery with the Sturdivant family.
?j Pursuant to General Status Chapter 65 and following a survey and determination of eligibility for
the cemetery, it is the NCDOC's intention to relocate the cemetery. The NCDOC will publish at
least once per week for four consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the
county in at attempt to contact and notify the next of kin. The disinterment, removal, and
reinterment will be performed by a fiineral director duly licensed as a "funeral director" or a
"funeral service licensee" under the provisions of Article 13A Chapter 90 of the North Carolina
General Statutes. All disinterment, removal, and reinterment will be made in a proper and
decent manner under the supervision and direction of the County Board of Commissioners or
other appropriated official, including the local health director. Care will be taken to identify all
tombstones or other markers so as to include these items with the reinterment. All remains
exhumed will be buried in a suitable cemetery or burial ground, and care will be taken to relocate
all grave-sites in a proper and decent manner.
CCR's Archaeological Reconnaissance and Survey, prepared June 2000, indicates that the
cemetery does not appear to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, and no
further evaluation is recommended provided that the site is addressed according to North
Carolina General Statutes. CCR's Archaeological Reconnaissance and Survey report was
forwarded to the SHPO on June 13, 2000.
The project sponsor has committed the resources to coordinate the project with the SHPO to
complete the archaeological survey as well as to relocate the cemetery in accordance with North
Carolina General Statutes Chapter 65, Article 5.

Correspondence was forwarded to the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP), dated
February 7, 2000, to determine the presence of any federally-listed or candidate endangered or
threatened species or critical habitat within the permit area of the proposed project.
Correspondence from the NCNHP dated February 17, 2000 indicates that there no known records
' Anson Couno, Correctional Facility - NWPs Nos. 39 and 14 August 7, 2000
1 LAW Project 30100-0-0025
of listed protected species in the vicinity of the project (Attachment F). However, the NCNHP
database indicates that there are six federally and/or state endangered/threatened species which
may occur in Anson County including the red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis),
shortnose sturgeon (Acipenser brevirostrum), Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii),
bog spicebush (Lindera subcoriacea), single-flowered sandwort (Minuartia uniflora) and puck's
orpine (Sedum pusillum).
LAW's initial on-site field investigation, conducted on February 16, 2000, to determine the
presence of suitable habitat for the aforementioned protected species, revealed that Schweinitz's
sunflower had the greatest probability of occurring on the subject property. Optimal foraging
and nesting habitat for the red-cockaded woodpecker is not present on the subject site. Since
there are no granite outcrops located on the proposed site, the presence of puck's orpine and
single-flowered sandwort is remote. The wet, peaty, evergreen shrub bog habitat that the bog
spicebush requires is not located on the subject property. The shortnose sturgeon usually
inhabits large rivers and there are no such waterways located on the site.
The Schweinitz's sunflower is a perennial herb limited to 35 known populations in North and
South Carolina (Weakley and Houk, 1994)2. This plant's habitat includes roadsides, old
pastures, transmission line right of ways (R/Ws), open areas, and edges of upland woods on
' moist and dryish clays, clay loams, or sandy clay-loams that often have a high gravel content and
are moderately podzolized (fort-nation of a layer from the leaching of minerals and organics from
top layers combined with material in lower layers). Schweinitz's sunflower is found primarily
on Iredell soils. This species' survival is largely threatened by destruction/alteration of its open
habitat, fire suppression, residential/commercial development, and R/Ws maintenance practices.
According to the NCNHP, there is not a known occurrence of a Schweinitz's sunflower
population within a one-mile radius of the subject site.
Based on the habitat requirements for this sunflower, the only possible habitat observed on the
subject property was a maintained open field/graded area. These areas of the site were examined
for evidence of Schweinitz's sunflower, but no plants were found.

Alternatives/Minimization
The subject site poses some development challenges, including several drainage features that
dissect the site. Largely due to these constraints, impacts to Stream C and Wetland B on the
subject site are unavoidable due to the construction of the proposed correctional facility and
associated parking lot. The original site plan for the proposed correctional facility, included as
Attachment G, would have impacted all three streams on the site as well as both wetland areas
' resulting in impacts to over 500 If of stream channel and over one acre of wetlands. In an effort
to minimize impacts to waters of the U.S., and as recommended by LAW, the NCDOC
considered three alternative site plans. The site constraints were evaluated by the NCDOC, in
cooperation with LAA and the design team, to determine which alternative would result in the
least amount of environmental impact while best achieving the project's purpose and need and
providing a functionally safe and efficient facility. The original site plan and the first two
alternatives were eliminated due to larger amounts of impacts to wetlands and stream channel.
The third alternative, which shifted the building largely away from existing wetland areas, and
' two of the site's three stream channels, resulted in the least amount of impacts.
A no-action alternative was also considered for the project. As discussed earlier, the proposed
correctional facility is needed to adequately accommodate the projected growth of North
Carolina's prison inmate population. As a result, the no-action alternative does not appear to be
feasible given the projected shortage of prison space.
I Proposed Impacts to Jurisdictional Waters
The proposed Anson County Correctional Facility will result in unavoidable impacts to waters of
the U.S. These impacts have been determined utilizing an overlay of the surveyed boundaries of
waters of the U.S., including wetlands, and the proposed site plan. Construction of the
' correctional facility building will predominantly impact the unimportant section of Stream C. It
is anticipated that impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S., including wetlands, associated
with the Anson County Correctional Facility building and parking lot construction will be
permitted under NWP No. 39 - Residential, Commercial, and Institutional Developments. The
Anson County Correctional Fociliry - NWPs Nos. 39 and 14 August 7, 2000
LAW Project 30100-0-0025
proposed building will impact approximately 242 If of perennial/important stream channel and
481 if (0.17 acre) of intermittent/unimportant stream channel (Attachment D - Figure 4). Project
impacts to the intermittent/unimportant portions of Stream C (481 If) have not been included
towards the 300 linear foot permitting threshold associated with NWP No. 39, but have been
included towards the 0.5-acre waters of the U.S. threshold. Additionally, approximately 0.10
acre of Wetland B will be impacted by the grading limits of the parking lot (Attachment D -
Figure 4). These unavoidable impacts, resulting from the grading limits and construction of the
' correctional facility and associated parking lot, have been minimized to the maximum extent
practicable and are necessary for the construction of the facility and associated parking lot. The
multi-story design of the proposed correctional facility has maximized project function while
minimizing the footprint and resultant impacts. Additionally, the entire building and parking lot
layout has been shifted from its original layout, largely away from existing wetland areas and
stream channels.
The proposed ACCF access road crossing at Stream A will impact approximately 70 if of
perennial/important stream channel, approximately 60 if (0.01 acre) of unimportant stream
channel, and approximately 0.02 acre of Wetland A (Attachment D - Figure 4). It is anticipated
that impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S., including wetlands, associated with the
construction of the access road will be permitted under NWP No. 14 - Linear Transportation
Crossings. These impacts will result from the proposed installation of one 18-inch reinforced
concrete pipe culvert (RCP) and one 36-inch RCP culvert. The proposed installation of these
culverts will include flared end sections and will be sized to convey the 25-year storm. The
culverts will be placed at or below the elevation of the streambed to allow low flow passage and
' unimpeded movement of aquatic life. The culvert installation will not require any additional
channel modifications outside the impacts of the structure.
The proposed fill in wetlands necessary to complete the road will result in impacts to 0.02 acre of
' Wetland A. The access road has been designed to maintain a low vertical profile to minimize
associated fill slopes and subsequent wetland impacts. In addition, the road was aligned to avoid as
' much of the wetland as possible, particularly the central portion of the wetland area. Several
different alternatives were discussed for the entrance road alignment. These options included
shifting the road crossing upstream to cross Stream A at an intermittent/unimportant section,

All totaled, the facility and associated parking lot will result in unavoidable impacts to
approximately 242 If perennial/important stream channel and 0.27 acre of wetlands, including
481 If of intermittent/unimportant stream channel (0.17 acre) pursuant to NWP No. 39. The road

No. 47; March 9, 2000) and State Consistency Conditions, as applicable.
Stormwater Management Plan
' The proposed project is not expected to result in long-term impacts to the water quality of Brown
Creek and its tributaries in the project area. A key condition of the Section 404 wetlands permit
' and corresponding Section 401 water quality certification will be the implementation of an
on-site Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP). The SWMP, approved by DWQ, will be
implemented at the commencement of permitted activities. The SWMP will involve the
collection of stormwater via a series of catch basins and pipes. The storrnwater will ultimately
be conveyed to three proposed wet ponds designed to remove 85% of the total suspended solids.
The proposed wet ponds will be constructed in upland areas. Additional details on the SWMP
are included in Attachment I. In addition, vegetated buffers will be maintained along those
Anson Counh' Correctional Facility - NWPs Nos. 39 and 14 August 7, 2000
LAW Project 30100-0-0025
' portions of on site streams situated outside the proposed construction limits. These undisturbed
vegetated buffer areas of approximately 50 feet in width will further minimize the potential
' introduction of toxic substances and the potential eutrophication of receiving waters associated
with runoff.
1 Compensatory Mitigation - Conceptual Plan
Compensatory mitigation will be accomplished through either an off-site stream restoration plan
on property currently owned by the NCDOC in Alexander County, North Carolina
(Attachment H - Photographs A and B) or through a donation to the North Carolina Wetland
Restoration Program (NCWRP). The Alexander County stream restoration site is located in the
' Catawba River Basin within Hydrologic Unit Map #03050101. Off-site restoration would
include the restoration of stream channel (classified as WS-IV) that has been adjacent to active
' pasture in the past. The dollar amount of a donation to the NCWRP, based on 312 If of perennial
stream channel impacted by the project, i.e., 242 If associated with the building construction
1 (NWP No. 39) and 70 If associated with the road crossing (NWP No. 14), is anticipated to be
$39,000. The NCWRP has indicated that there are on-going restoration projects in Anson
County that are within the same river basin (Yadkin-PeeDee) as this project. Minor impacts to
wetlands associated with the project, totaling 0.31 acre, i.e., 0.27 acre associated with the
building construction (NWP No. 39) and 0.03 acre associated with the road crossing (NWP No.
14), will be compensated through the implementation of the above-described SWMP. It is
anticipated that the open water, permanent wet ponds and associated shoreline areas will
adequately compensate for the project's impacts to wetlands.

' The Anson Count Correctional Facility project exceeds the minimum threshold for preparation
' of an Environmental Assessment (EA) established by the NCDOC of 10,000 sf footprint for new

PURPOSE OF PROPOSED WORK: The North Carolina Sentencing and Policy Advisory
Commission, in coniunction with the Department of Correction's Research and Planning Office
has predicted the future ten-year prison population for North Carolina. Based on the predictions
of this commission there will be a shortage of prison beds by the year 2001, as the projected
prison population will exceed prison capacity. This bed shortage along with a trend toward more
serious offense classes of inmates provides the basis for this project. To alleviate anticipated
overcrowded conditions and to accommodate the future inmate population increase, the NCDOC
has proposed the construction of the Anson County correctional facility located adiacent to the
existing Brown Creek State Prison medium security facility. The proposed Anson County
Correctional Facility project would help to satisfy the NCDOC's need for additional inmate
space by providing a 1,000-cell facility that will accommodate 1,000 inmates.
STATE REASONS WHY IT IS BELIEVED THAT THIS ACTIVITY MUST BE CARRIED OUT IN
WETLANDS. (INCLUDE ANY MEASURES TAKEN TO MINIMIZE WETLAND IMPACTS):
The subject site poses some development challenges including several drainage features that
dissect the site. Largely due to these site constraints, impacts to one unnamed stream (Stream C)
and one wetland (Wetland B) on the subject site are unavoidable for the construction of the
proposed building and associated parking lot. The original site plan for the proposed Anson
County Correctional Facility, included as Attachment G, featuring a north-south compound
orientation would have impacted all three existing stream channels on site and both wetland
areas The original plan would have resulted in total impacts to over 500 If of stream channel
and over one acre of wetlands. In an effort to minimize impacts to waters of the U.S., and as
recommended by LAW the NCDOC considered three alternative site plans. LAA and the design
team first revised the original plan by rotating the building 90 degrees with an east-west
compound orientation. This alternative resulted in stream channel impacts of approximately 550
If and wetland impacts of approximately 1.3 acres. Subsequent revisions to the parking lot
layout and driveway location reduced impacts of this second alternative to approximately 400 if
of perennial stream channel impact and 0.4 acre of wetland impact. The third alternative
maintained the design plan in its original north-south orientation but shifted the entire layout
north largely away from the existing wetland areas, and two of the site's three stream channels.
The site constraints were evaluated by the NCDOC, in cooperation with LAA and the design
team to determine which alternative would result in the least amount of environmental impact
while best achieving the project's purpose and need and providing a functionally safe and
efficient facility. The original site plan and first two alternatives were eliminated due to larger
amounts of impacts to wetlands and stream channel. The third alternative site plan eliminated
impacts to Stream B and lessened the original plan impacts to Wetland A, Wetland B, and
Stream A. The estimated impacts for the third alternative site plan are 0.27 acre of wetland,
including 0.17 acre of intermittent unimportant stream channel, and 242 If of perennial stream
for the proposed building and parking lot. This plan provides the least amount of environmental
impact and is, therefore, the recommended site plan for the project.
A no-action alternative was also considered for the project. As discussed earlier, the proposed
correctional facility is needed to adequately accommodate the proiected growth of North
Carolina's prison inmate population. As a result, the no-action alternative does not appear to be
feasible given the projected shortage of prison space.
Potential impacts to jurisdictional waters, including wetlands, associated with sedimentation and
erosion will be minimized through the implementation and maintenance of a State-approved
erosion and sedimentation control plan. The goal of this plan will be to minimize erosion and
retain sediments, to the maximum extent possible, within the construction area. In addition, a
Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is being developed and will follow Best Management
Practices (BMPs) established by the North Carolina Department of the Environment and Natural
Resources (NCDENR). Additional details on the SWMP are included in Attachment I. No
additional impacts to wetlands or stream channel will result from the SWMP.

PURPOSE OF PROPOSED WORK: The North Carolina Sentencing and Policy Advisory
Commission in conjunction with the Department of Correction's Research and Planning Office,
has predicted the future ten-year prison population for North Carolina. Based on the predictions
of this commission there will be a shortage of prison beds by the year 2001, as the proiected
prison population will exceed prison capacity. This bed shortage along with a trend toward more
serious offense classes of inmates provides the basis for this project. To alleviate anticipated
overcrowded conditions and to accommodate the future inmate population increase, the NCDOC
has proposed the construction of the Anson County correctional facility located adjacent to the
existing Brown Creek State Prison medium security facility. The proposed Anson County
Correctional Facility project would help to satisfy the NCDOC's need for additional inmate
space by providing a 1,000-cell facility that will accommodate 1,000 inmates. The proposed
road and associated stream channel crossing provides access to the proposed correctional facility.
STATE REASONS WHY IT IS BELIEVED THAT THIS ACTIVITY MUST BE CARRIED OUT IN
WETLANDS. (INCLUDE ANY MEASURES TAKEN TO MINIMIZE WETLAND IMPACTS):
The proposed fill in wetlands necessary to complete the road will result in impacts to 0.02 acre of
Wetland A. These impacts will result from the proposed installation of one 18-inch reinforced
concrete pipe (RCP) and one 36-inch RCP culvert. The access road has been designed to maintain
a low vertical profile to minimize associated fill slopes and subsequent wetland impacts. In
addition the road was aligned to avoid as much of the wetland as possible, particularly the central
ortion of the wetland area. Several different alternatives were discussed for the entrance road
alignment. These options included shifting the road crossing upstream to cross Stream A at an
intermittent/unimportant section shifting the road crossing downstream, and shifting the entire
road alignment to the north (closer to the existing Brown Creek Medium Security Facility).
Shifting the road crossing upstream and the alignment to the north would have resulted in large
cuts into an earthen berm that separates the existing Brown Creek facility from the proposed
entrance road. Furthermore the close proximity of the entrance road to the existing perimeter
road of the Brown Creek facility would have caused operational conflicts and a public safety
issue. Shifting the road crossing downstream would result in more wetland impacts (Wetland A)
and/or additional stream channel impacts to more significant downstream stream channel
segments. The proposed fill in jurisdictional areas is unavoidable and is required for construction
of the proposed access road.

Potential impacts to jurisdictional waters, including wetlands, associated with sedimentation and
erosion will be minimized through the implementation and maintenance of a State-approved
erosion and sedimentation control plan. The goal of this plan will be to minimize erosion and retain
sediments, to the maximum extent possible, within the construction area. In addition, a Stormwater
Management Plan (SWMP) is being developed and will follow Best Management Practices
(BMPs) established by the North Carolina Department of the Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR). Additional details on the SWMP are included in Attachment I. No additional impacts
to wetlands or stream channel will result from the SWMP.

' Dear Mr. Iagnocco:
Thank you for your letter of February 7, 2000, concerning the above project.
There are no known recorded archaeological sites within the project boundaries. However, the
' project area has never been systematically surveyed to determine the location or significance of
archaeological resources.
1 Our records indicate numerous archaeological sites are recorded in the region.
The area plotted on your map includes topographic settings with a potential for an archaeological
site that may be significant.
' We recommend that a comprehensive survey be conducted by an experienced archaeologist to
identify the presence and significance of archaeological remains that may be damaged or
' destroyed by the proposed project. Potential effects on unknown resources should be assessed
prior to the initiation of construction activities.
' A list of archaeological consultants who have conducted or expressed an interest in conducting
contract work in North Carolina is available on our website at
http•//tw.arch.dcr.state.nc.us/consult.htm.
' We look forward to reviewing your Scope of Work for the requested archaeological survey.
Should you need assistance with development of the archaeological Scope of Work please do not
hesitate to contact our office. We suggest you urge the archaeological firm you hire to contact
our office prior to the survey to clarify our concerns about the survey.

' NC NATURAL HERITAGE PROGRAM COUNTY STATUS LIST COVER SHEET
The county status list of the NC Natural Heritage Program is a listing of the elements of natural diversity (rare plant and animal
pecies, exemplary natural communities, and special animal habitats) known to occur in all North Carolina counties. The
Information on which this list is based comes from a variety of sources, including field surveys, museums, herbaria, scientific
literature, and personal communications. This list is dynamic, with new records continually being added and old records being
evised as new information is received. As a result, the enclosed list cannot be considered a definitive record of natural heritage
elements present in a given county and should not be used as a substitute for field surveys.
When this information is used in any document, we request that the date this list was compiled be given and that the NC Natural
'Heritage Program be credited.
STATE STATUS
(
CODE STATUS CODE STATUS
E Endangered SR Significantly Rare
T Threatened EX Extirpated
'
SC Special Concern D De-listed
C Candidate P_ Proposed (E, T, SC, EX or D)
Plant statuses are determined by the Plant Conservation Program (NC Department of Agriculture) and the Natural Heritage
Program (NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources). E, T, and SC species are protected by state law (Plant
Protection and Conservation Act, 1979). C and SR designations indicate rarity and the need for population monitoring and
conservation action. Note that some plants have a double status (e.g., E-SC, indicates that while the plant is endangered, it is
collected or sold under regulation). See the Natural Heritage Program List of the Rare Plant Species of North Carolina for further
explanation of these statuses.
' Animal statuses that indicate state protection (E, T, and SC) are published in Endangered Wildlife of North Carolina, March 16,
1992, Nongame and Endangered Wildlife Program (NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources). SR and EX statuses
are Natural Heritage Program designations. SR indicates rarity and the need for population monitoring and conservation action.
' See the Natural Heritage Program List of the Rare Animal Species of North Carolina for further explanation of these statuses.
FEDERAL STATUS
' These statuses are designated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Federally listed Endangered and Threatened species are
protected under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended through the 100th Congress. Unless otherwise
noted, definitions are taken from the Federal Register, Vol. 56, No. 225, November 21, 1991 (50 CFR Part 17).
' CODE STATUS DEFINITION
LE Endangered A taxon "in danger of extinction throughout all of a significant portion of its range."
' LT Threatened A taxon "likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all of a
significant portion of its range."
C Candidate A taxon under consideration for which there is sufficient information to support listing. This category was
formerly designated as a Candidate 1 (Cl) species.
FSC Federal "Species of Concern" (also called "Species at Risk"). Formerly defined as a taxon under
consideration for which there is insufficient information to support listing; formerly designated as a
Candidate 2 (C2) species. Currently, the US Fish and Wildlife Service does not recognize this as an
official designation.
' T(S/A) Threatened due to Similarity of Appearance. The Endangered Species Act authorizes the treatment of a
species (subspecies or population segment) as threatened even though it is not otherwise listed as threatened
if: (a) The species so closely resembles in appearance a threatened species that enforcement personnel
would have substantial difficulty in differentiating between the listed and unlisted species; (b) the effect of
this substantial difficulty is an additional threat to a threatened species; and (c) such treatment of an unlisted
species will substantially facilitate the enforcement and further the policy of the Act. The American
Alligator has this designation due to similarity of appearance to other rare crocodilians. The Bog Turtle
(southern population) has this designation due to similarity of appearance to Bog Turtles in the threatened
northern population.
' PD Species has been proposed for de-listing.

' STORMWATER MANAGEMENT NARRATIVE
The goals of the stormwater management plan are to detain and treat the first 1-inch of
runoff from impervious surfaces and to provide peak flow attenuation for the 10-year
storm event. The proposed 1000 cell prison facility is filing a stormwater management
plan for the construction of the facility due to impacted wetlands.
' Information on this proposed site and watershed information necessary for hydrologic
and hydraulic analysis was obtained from field topography mapping and site plans. Most
of the property's drainage outfall are directed towards wetland areas. The soils are
' predominantly sandy clay soils with an assumed hydrologic soil class "D". Most of the
cover conditions are recently cleared trees and re-established vegetation. For simplicity,
the pre-development curve number for the pre-development area was assumed to be 80
' with a Rational coefficient of 0.30.
The main devices for stormwater management are storm drain inlets and underground
' piping to wet detention ponds designed to detain 1-inch of runoff from impervious
surfaces over the contributing catchment. The detention ponds are designed to slowly
release the volume of the 1-inch runoff for a period of no less than 2 days and no more
than 5 days. These ponds will also provide peak flow attenuation for the 10-year storm
and will be capable of passing the 25-year storm.
' The rational method and the SCS curve number are used to determine the peak inflow for
both pre-development and post development. All the drainage for the project was
' designed in concurrence with the stormwater management plan. The wet detention ponds
are designed in accordance with NC DENR's guidelines for Stormwater Best
Management Practices, to achieve the pollutant removal rate of 85 percent of total
' suspended solids. Storage routing through the ponds (Chainsaw routing, H.R. Malcom)
are used to determine riser/barrel combinations, dam heights and pond volumes. The
Manning's formula was used to size the stormdrain piping system to the ponds.
