Dear Mr. Bateman:

S&ME, Inc. (S&ME) herewith submits this Report on the assessment of the plausible presence of Federally-

Protected species on an approximate 240-acre land parcel located west of SC Highway 25 and south of

Old Laurens Road in Hodges, South Carolina (Site, Attachment I, Exhibit I). This Report defines the area assessed; describes the methodologies used; and, presents the ensuing results and conclusions. The work was performed in accordance with our Proposal No. 42-1800738 rev.2, dated August 2, 2018.

Site Description

Hodges Corporate Park is located in Hodges, Greenwood County. The site is comprised of seven tax parcels and a portion of an eighth, including: 6839-003-983 (81.14 acre), 6829-870-959 (55.23 acre), 6829-

814-999 (9.77 acre), 6920-725-034 (53.26 acre), 6829-971-959 (7.82 acre), 6829-935-957 (2.93 acre), 6930-

042-124 (10.86 acre), 6920-883-325 (13.64 acre portion of) for an approximate total of 234.65 acres (Site).

The Site is bordered by U.S. Highway 25 North and Corporate Court (Exhibit 1).

Exhibit 2 shows the Site topography as it ranges from approximately 580 feet above mean sea level (ft.

msl) to 690 ft. msl. The highest point on the Site is interpreted from Exhibit 1 to be located in the south eastern corner adjacent to Highway 25. The Site topographic relief generally falls from south east to north west.

The global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of the approximate center of the Site are -82.229368 and

34.301879 Decimal Degrees.

Regulatory Basis

Federally-Protected Species

Endangered Species Act of 1973

The 1973 Endangered Species Act (ESA) provides for the conservation of ecosystems upon which threatened and endangered species of fish, wildlife, and plants depend.

Relative to administration of this Federal statute, endangered indicates that the species is in danger of extinction; threatened indicates that the species is likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future. Candidate indicates that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has sufficient information to support listing of the species, although a formal listing as threatened or endangered has not been promulgated. Species of Concern includes species being considered for listing under Section 4 of the ESA, but there is insufficient information to support listing at this time.

Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act of 1940

The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) was enacted in 1940 and has been amended several times. This Act prohibits the taking of bald and golden eagles without a permit issued by the Secretary of the Interior. Taking includes their parts, nests, or eggs by pursuing, shooting/shooting at, poisoning, wounding, killing, capturing, trapping, collecting, molesting, or disturbing. Further, disturb means to agitate or bother a bald or golden eagle to a degree that causes, or is likely to cause, based on the best scientific information available: 1) injury to an eagle, 2) a decrease in its productivity, by substantially interfering with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering behavior, or 3) nest abandonment, by substantially interfering with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering behavior.

The Act also covers impacts that result from anthropogenic alterations initiated near a previously-used nesting site, during a time when eagles are not present. Such alterations are prohibited if, upon an eagle's return to the nest, such alterations agitate or bother the eagle to a degree that normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering habits are interrupted or interfered; thereby, resulting in injury, death, or nest abandonment.

Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918

The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) implements the United States’ commitment to international conventions with Canada, Japan, Mexico, and Russia that protect birds that migrate across international borders. This Act prohibits the taking, killing, possession, transportation, and importation of migratory birds, their eggs, parts, and nests (i.e., taking) except as authorized under a valid permit. The MBTA also authorizes and directs the Secretary of the Interior to determine if, and by what means, the taking of migratory birds should be allowed and to adopt suitable regulations permitting and governing such taking (e.g., hunting seasons for ducks and geese). The MBTA and its implementing regulations provide authority for the conservation of bald eagles and protect against their taking if the ESA protections are removed.

State-Listed Species

As part of the Federally-Protected Species review, the State of South Carolina Heritage Trust Program

(SCHTP), administered by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), was consulted to ascertain if Federally-Protected and State-Listed species have been recorded for the Site.

Nongame and Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1973 (State)

Relative to administration of this State statute, endangered is defined as any species or subspecies of wildlife whose prospects of survival or recruitment within the State are in jeopardy or are likely within the foreseeable future to become so; threatened is defined as a species that is likely to become endangered and in need of management. Species and communities on the State Listing that are neither Federally- nor

State-protected are considered either rare or in need of further study. These species and communities have no legal protection under the Federal or State statutes and are tracked by the SCHTP at the request of SCDNR biologists. Legal protection under this statute is prescribed in the South Carolina Nongame and

Endangered Species Conservation Act, Section 50.15-40(c) and addresses the taking, transporting and selling of species designated as endangered or threatened for remuneration.

Methodology

Review of Federally-Protected and State-Listed Species Databases

The most-current postings in the public domain published on-line by USFWS [i.e., the Federally-Protected

Species Database] (USFWS 2018a), the Information for Planning and Consultation (USFWS 2018b) and by

SCDNR (SCDNR 2018) were obtained for Greenwood County. This review of available data was performed to identify known occurrences of Federally-Protected and State-Listed species currently in Greenwood

County. A site reconnaissance was performed to determine whether suitable habitat was present on the site for the listed species.

The acquired information for the one (1) Federally-protected species was summarized; compiled with photographs; and, consolidated for field reference purposes. Areas of suitable habitat for the Federally-listed species were noted during the habitat assessment.

Field Reconnaissance

The field reconnaissance was conducted concurrently with a jurisdictional assessment on August 22 and

23, 2018 by S&ME Project Scientists Ronald Walker and Jacob Foose (jurisdictional features included in

Attachment I, Exhibit 3, 3a, 3b). The assessment included observations across the Site for the habitat of the target species, as discussed below, and for the general habitat observed on the Site.

Results

Pre-Field Review of Property Soil Associations

The Greenwood County Web Soil Survey (Exhibit 4) indicates the Site is underlain by the following soil associations:

Pre-Field Review of Federally-Protected and State-Listed Species Databases

Data obtained from the USFWS and SCDNR indicated one species protected under the BGEPA, and one

(1) threatened, endangered, or candidate species on this species list. The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucophalus) is protected under the BGEPA, and the Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorate) was identified as occurring in Greenwood County and is considered an endangered species. No additional state threatened or endangered species were listed for Greenwood County (Attachment II).

Brief description of the Bald Eagle and Carolina Heelsplitter and their preferred habitat have been abstracted from USFWS (2018c, and 2018 d) and are provided below:

Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) (USFWS 2018c)

Distinguished by a white head and white tail feathers, Bald eagles are powerful, brown birds that may weigh 14 pounds and have a wingspan of eight feet. Male eagles are smaller, weighing as much as ten pounds and have a wingspan of six feet. Sometimes confused with Golden eagles, Bald eagles are mostly dark brown until they are four to five years old and acquire their characteristic coloring.

Bald eagles live near rivers, lakes, and marshes where they can find fish, their staple food. Bald eagles will also feed on waterfowl, turtles, rabbits, snakes, and other small animals and carrion. Bald eagles require a good food base, perching areas, and nesting sites. Their habitat includes estuaries, large lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and some seacoasts. In winter, the birds congregate near open water in tall trees for spotting prey and night roosts for sheltering.

Eagles mate for life, choosing the tops of large trees to build nests, which they typically use and enlarge each year. Nests may reach ten feet across and weigh a half ton. They may also have one or more alternate nests within their breeding territory. In treeless regions, they may also nest in cliffs or on the ground. Bald eagles travel great distances but usually return to breeding grounds within 100 miles of the place where they were raised. Bald Eagles may live 15 to 25 years in the wild, longer in captivity.

Breeding eagles will typically lay one to three eggs once a year, and they hatch after about 35 days. The young eagles are flying within three months and are on their own one month later.

Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorate) (USFWS 2018d)

Description: The Carolina heelsplitter was first described in 1852. It has an ovate, trapezoid-shaped shell.

The outer surface of the shell varies from greenish brown to dark brown in color, and shells from younger specimens have faint greenish brown or black rays. The nacre (inside surface) is often pearly white to bluish white, grading to orange in the deepest part of the shell. However, in older specimens the entire nacre may be a mottled pale orange. The shell of the largest known specimen of the species measures 4.6 inches (11.7 centimeters) in length. Like other freshwater mussels, the Carolina heelsplitter feeds by siphoning and filtering food particles from the water column.

The reproductive cycle of the species is similar to other native mussels. Males release sperm into the water, and the eggs are fertilized when the sperm are taken in by the females through their siphons during feeding and respiration. Females retain the fertilized eggs in their gills until the larvae (glochidia) fully develop. The glochidia are released into the water and must attach to the gills or fins of the appropriate fish species. They remain attached to their fish host for several weeks, drawing nourishment from the fish while they develop into juvenile mussels. They do not hurt their fish host. The juvenile mussels then detach from the fish host and drop to the bottom of the stream where they continue to develop, provided they land in a suitable place with good water conditions. This dependence on a certain species of fish increases the mussels’ vulnerability to habitat disturbances. If the fish host is driven off or eliminated because of habitat or water quality problems, the mussels can’t reproduce and will eventually die out.

Habitat: The Carolina heelsplitter requires cool, clean, well-oxygenated water. Stable, silt-free stream bottoms appear to be critical to the species. Typically stable areas occur where the stream banks are well-vegetated with trees and shrubs.

Distribution: Historically the Carolina heelsplitter occurred in several locations within the Catawba and Pee

Dee River systems in North Carolina and the Catawba, Pee Dee, Saluda, and Savannah River systems in

South Carolina. Today, only ten populations are known to survive. The species still occurs in two small streams in North Carolina – one in the Catawba River system and one in the Pee Dee River systems. In

South Carolina, the Carolina heelsplitter remains in the Pee Dee, Catawba, and the Savannah River systems. Finally, one population exists on the North Carolina/South Carolina state line, in the Catawba

River System.

Threats: Poor water quality and habitat conditions have led to the decline and loss of populations of the

Carolina heelsplitter and threaten the remaining populations. Studies have shown that freshwater mussels, especially in their early life stages, are extremely sensitive to many of the pollutants (chlorine, ammonia, heavy metals, etc.) commonly found in municipal and industrial wastewater releases. Impoundments

(dams), channelization projects, and in-stream dredging operations directly eliminate habitat. These activities also alter the quality and stability of remaining stream reaches by affecting the water flow, temperature, and chemistry. Agriculture (both crop and livestock) and forestry operations, roads, residential areas, golf courses, and other construction activities that do not adequately control soil erosion and water run-off contribute excessive amounts of silt, pesticides, fertilizers, heavy metals, and other pollutants that suffocate and poison freshwater mussels. The alteration of floodplains or the removal of forested stream buffers can be especially detrimental. Flood plains and forested stream buffers help maintain water quality and stream stability by absorbing, filtering, and slowly releasing rainwater. This also helps recharge groundwater levels and maintain flows during dry months.

Field Reconnaissance

The field reconnaissance was performed on August 22 and 23, 2018. The weather conditions were sunny and warm with a mean temperature of 85º Fahrenheit. The Greenwood County area had received 1.39 inches of rainfall within the previous 48 hours of the field reconnaissance.

Assessment Area Habitat Descriptions

Six natural habitats were observed within the Site as depicted on Exhibit 5 and described below:

Mixed Hardwood Habitat (79.05 acres, approx.) - Dominant species observed were; Red Maple (Acer rubrum), Yellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), Sweet Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), White Oak

(Quercus alba), Southern Red Oak (Quercus falcate) and Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda). Overall, the tree

Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) of the overstory species in this habitat area averaged 8 inches to 14+ inches, approx.

Open / Pasture / Wildlife Food Plot (72.87 acres, approx.) – Dominant species observed included pasture grasses and maintained open areas of fescue (Festuca spp.) and sunflowers (Helianthus spp.), for wildlife browse.

Open Water (1.89 acres, approx.) – Open water pond.

Planted Pine Habitat (73.23 acres, approx.) – Dominant species observed were; Loblolly Pine (P. taeda), Virginia Pine (Pinus virginiana), and Shortleaf Pine (Pinus echinata). Overall this habitat included existing planted pine of different age groups that had been actively managed. Overall DBH of the overstory species averaging 6 inches to over 12 inches.

Recently Harvested Pine / Cutover (6.77 acres, approx.) – This habitat was previously planted pine that had been recently clear cut. The species observed that are currently regenerating include; Sweet Gum

(L. styraciflua), White Oak (Q. alba), Loblolly Pine (P. taeda), Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), and Virginia Pine (P. virginiana). Overall, the DBH of the overstory species in this habitat area averaged under 3 inches.

Rights-of-way (ROW) and Open Habitat (10.37 acres, approx.) – This habitat included an existing overhead electric transmission line. Species observed within the transmission line included warm season grasses adjacent to a cleared roadway. Dominant species observed in this habitat included;

Loblolly Pine (P. taeda), Eastern Red Cedar (J. virginiana), and Fescue grasses (Festuca sp.). Generally, the DBH of overstory species in this habitat area averaged less than 6 inches, approximately.

Photographs (typicals) of the Site are presented in Attachment III and are indexed on Exhibit 6 in

Attachment I.

Site Impacts Evaluation – Federally-Protected Species

Bald Eagle (Protected under Bald and Golden Eagle Act)

The Bald eagle, protected under the BGEPA, is also included on the list of protected species for

Greenwood County. No large water bodies that could provide foraging or nesting habitat for Bald eagle are located on or immediately near the Site. Lake Greenwood is located approximately 3.4 miles east of the Site. No nests were observed on the Site. Based on our observations, the Site does not contain the habitat necessary to support the listed the bald eagle. Accordingly, future development of the Site is not expected to impact this species.

Biological Opinion: No Effect

Carolina Heelsplitter (Endangered, Critical Habitat)

Carolina heelsplitter requires cool, clean, well-oxygenated water. Stable, silt-free stream bottoms appear to be critical to the species. The Site streams appeared to be impacted in upper reaches due to livestock ingress and egress that led to additional siltation. No mussels, or mussel shells were observed within aquatic resources at the Site. Based on our observations, the Site does not contain the critical habitat necessary to support Carolina Heelsplitter.

Biological Opinion: No Effect

Summary

Based on review of species-specific data in the public domain for Federally-Protected Species and on information acquired from the field reconnaissance performed on August 22 and 23, 2018, the proposed

Site development is expected to result in:

No Effect on:

Bald Eagle (H. leucocephalus), and

Carolina Heelsplitter (L. decorate).

The Site qualifies for the USFWS Clearance Letter for Species and Habitat Assessments (Attachment IV) and as such does not require further consultation with the USFWS.

Event Code: 04ES1000-2018-E-02208

Project Name: Greenwood County Hodges Site

Subject: List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project location, and/or may be affected by your proposed project

To Whom It May Concern:

The enclosed species list identifies threatened, endangered, proposed and candidate species, as well as proposed and final designated critical habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your proposed project and/or may be affected by your proposed project. The species list fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the

Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).

New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical habitat. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the

Act, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90 days. This verification can be completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed list.

The purpose of the Act is to provide a means whereby threatened and endangered species and the ecosystems upon which they depend may be conserved. Under sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) of the

Act and its implementing regulations (50 CFR 402 et seq.), Federal agencies are required to utilize their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or designated critical habitat.

August 20, 2018 http://www.fws.gov/charleston/

08/20/2018 Event Code: 04ES1000-2018-E-02208 2

A Biological Assessment is required for construction projects (or other undertakings having similar physical impacts) that are major Federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment as defined in the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2)

(c)). For projects other than major construction activities, the Service suggests that a biological evaluation similar to a Biological Assessment be prepared to determine whether the project may affect listed or proposed species and/or designated or proposed critical habitat. Recommended contents of a Biological Assessment are described at 50 CFR 402.12.

If a Federal agency determines, based on the Biological Assessment or biological evaluation, that listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the proposed project, the agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402. In addition, the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species and proposed critical habitat be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or license applicants, can be found in the "Endangered

Species Consultation Handbook" at:

http://www.fws.gov/endangered/esa-library/pdf/TOC-GLOS.PDF

Please be aware that bald and golden eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle

Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668 et seq.), and projects affecting these species may require development of an eagle conservation plan (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/ eagle_guidance.html). Additionally, wind energy projects should follow the wind energy guidelines (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/) for minimizing impacts to migratory birds and bats.

Guidance for minimizing impacts to migratory birds for projects including communications towers (e.g., cellular, digital television, radio, and emergency broadcast) can be found at: http:// www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdIssues/Hazards/towers/towers.htm; http:// www.towerkill.com; and http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdIssues/Hazards/towers/ comtow.html.

We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages

Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Tracking Number in the header of this letter with any request for consultation or correspondence about your project that you submit to our office.

Endangered Species Act Species There is a total of 1 threatened, endangered, or candidate species on this species list.

Species on this list should be considered in an effects analysis for your project and could include species that exist in another geographic area. For example, certain fish may appear on the species list because a project could affect downstream species.

IPaC does not display listed species or critical habitats under the sole jurisdiction of NOAA

Fisheries , as USFWS does not have the authority to speak on behalf of NOAA and the

Department of Commerce.

See the "Critical habitats" section below for those critical habitats that lie wholly or partially within your project area under this office's jurisdiction. Please contact the designated FWS office if you have questions.

Migratory Birds FAQ Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.

Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures and/or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species present on your project site.

What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location?

The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern

(BCC) and other species that may warrant special attention in your project location.

The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian

Knowledge Network (AKN) . The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project intersects, and that have been identified as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that area, an eagle ( Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to offshore activities or development.

https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/laws-legislations/migratory-bird-treaty-act.php https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/laws-legislations/bald-and-golden-eagle-protection-act.php http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/pdf/management/nationwidestandardconservationmeasures.pdf https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/project-assessment-tools-and-guidance/conservation-measures.php https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/permits.php https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/managed-species/birds-of-conservation-concern.php https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/managed-species/birds-of-conservation-concern.php http://www.avianknowledge.net/ http://www.avianknowledge.net/ https://data.pointblue.org/api/v3/annual-summaries-about-data-types.html https://data.pointblue.org/api/v3/annual-summaries-about-data-types.html https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/managed-species/eagle-management.php

Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your project area, please visit the E-bird Explore Data Tool .

What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location?

The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN) . This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets .

Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.

How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area?

To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or year-round), you may refer to the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird Guide , or (if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds guide . If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?

Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:

1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);

2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation

Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and

3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from certain types of development or activities

(e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing).

Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.
