Due to the location of the on site streams and wetland, opportunities to avoid these areas were limited. Impacts to site surface waters associated with
the proposed development were limited through site selection, location, design, & location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes. The
impact to the onsite naturalized wetland feature is unavoidable to a residential roadway connection to a pre-eAsting road stub that is being required by
the City of Kannapolis.

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy
of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must
be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is
calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
impact amounts shown below.

Kellswater - Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation
222
GENERAL LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION:
The Kellswater site (+/- 18.5 acres) is located just east of Kannapolis Parkway;
and just south of Rogers Lake Road; in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. It can
be found on the Kannapolis, NC USGS Topographic Quadrangle Maps; latitude
is 35.4665 N, longitude is -80.6658 W. The topography is gently to moderately
sloped. The elevation ranges from 690 to 770 ft. (Figure 1). The site is in
various stages of primary succession from major disturbance in the recent past.
A large overhead power line traverses the perimeter of the northeast boundary,
and a smaller power line parallels the roadside corridor along Kannapolis
Parkway.

METHODOLOGY:
The US Fish and Wildlife Service website
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/species/cntylist/nc_counties.html was referenced to
determine the occurrence of Threatened, Endangered and Protected species for
Cabarrus County, North Carolina, the results of which are listed below (Table 1).
Maps and aerial photographs were assembled, and the site was investigated
during the week of August 11, 2019.

SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS:
One plant species with federal protection was included in the survey efforts:
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).
A total of three animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially
occurring in Cabarrus 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.
RESULTS:
The site is in a highly disturbed state from past timbering and rough grading. It is
in various stages of primary succession. A large overhead power line traverses
the perimeter of the northeast boundary, and a smaller power line parallels the
roadside corridor along Kannapolis Parkway.
The flatter uplands are covered primarily with herbaceous vegetation, including
typical grasses and pea family species used for soil stabilization on disturbed
land. The dominant species overall is Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata),
with Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), Goldenrod (Solidago sp.), Broomsedge
(Andropogon virginicus), Splitbeard (A. ternarius), Groundsel (Senicio sp.),
Thoroughwort (Eupatorium sp.), St. John’s Wort (Hypericum punctatum), and
Dogbane (Apocynum cannabinum).

The remainder of the site is covered with a sucessional scrub/shrub community
composed of pine and hardwood saplings and young trees, and blackberry and
woody vine thickets. Dominant species present include Winged Elm, (Ulmus
alata), Red Maple (Acer rubrum), Honey Locust (Gleditsia triacanthhos),
Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Shortleaf Pine (Pinus echinata), Virginia
Pine (Pinus virginiana), Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), Black Cherry (Prunus
serotina), Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana), Black Gum (Nyssa sylvatica),
Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Russian Olive (Elaeagnus umbellata), Smooth Sumac
(Rhus glabra), Groundsel (Baccharis halimifolia), Japanese Honeysuckle
(Lonicera japonica), Catbrier (Smilax sp.), and Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron
radicans).
At the time of the site evaluation the power line rights-of-way had been sprayed
with herbicide with most of the vegetation dead or dying; and the roadside along
Kannapolis Highway had been recently mowed.
Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results
All potential habitats for Schweinitz’s Sunflower along the roadside, power
lines and edges were examined, and the species was not found.
No suitable nesting habitat exists on the site for Bald Eagles, and there
were no sightings nor were any nesting sites observed.
The on-site streams do not have 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/htmls/project_review/NLEB_in_WNC.html) it
appears that the site meets the “exempt” criteria which requires no further
action under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for the Northern
Long-eared Bat.

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.

Carolina Natural Heritage Program.
Threatened and Endangered Species Surveys and Natural Communities
Evaluation for over 50,000 acres in North and South Carolina, 1996 - present.
Located and identified at least six previously unreported populations of Federally
Endangered Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii).
Located and identified four previously unreported populations of
Threatened Dwarf Heartleaf (Hexastylis naniflora).
Located a previously unknown population of Federally Endangered Schweinitz's
Sunflower at Redlair Farm in Gaston County, NC. This discovery led (in part) to
the purchase of the site by the State of North Carolina Plant Conservation
Program, now called Redlair Preserve. This population has become a Recovery
Site for the species.
Participated in numerous Piedmont Prairie restoration projects in Mecklenburg,
Union, Cabarrus and Gaston Counties, North Carolina.
