4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*

The purpose of the project is to meet the growing demand of Piedmont' s customers, specifically during peak seasons, by providing a redundant and modernized source of gas delivered
into Piedmont' s new Robeson LNG Peaking Facility.

4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*

The RLNG Pipeline Project includes the construction and operation of two ( 2) new natural gas pipelines: Line 456 ( 8- inch) and Line 457 ( 24- inch). The two new pipelines will be
collocated along a 4- mile- long corridor. The beginning and ending coordinates are as follows: Beginning: ( 34.743051 °,- 79.282723°) and Ending: ( 34. 797105°,- 79. 277578°). The two
lines will be installed in a parallel manner beginning at the new Robeson LNG Peak Shaving Facility, located adjacent to the north side of North Carolina Highway 71, approximately five
miles west of Red Springs, and ending at a connection with PNG' s existing high- pressure distribution pipeline to the south ( just north of Missouri Road).

A 1. 3- acre meter station will be constructed at the new Robeson LNG Peach Shaving Facility, and a 0. 5- acre tap station will be constructed at the tie in location to PNG' s existing
pipeline just north of Missouri Road. Both stations will be graveled and fenced in. An approximately 1, 200- foot long and 20-foot wide permanent gravel access road will be constructed
along an existing gravel/ dirt road to the tap station.

The pipelines will be installed using conventional open cut construction in most areas; however, the Gum Swamp crossing will be installed using horizontal directional drilling ( HDD)
method. Conventional open cut construction of the two lines will require a 130- foot- wide to 70- foot- wide construction corridor. Since the lines will be co - located within one corridor, the

permanent operational width will be 70- feet- wide. Construction will involve the use of common heavy construction equipment ( e. g. excavators, dozers, scrapers, side booms) and will be
in compliance with all necessary permits and regulatory conditions. The longer ( 1, 781 liner feet) crossing of Gum Swamp will be an HDD; however, due to Piedmont' s Integrity
Management Guidelines, the forested wetland on the surface wil be cleared with roots left in place, resulting in a conversion of PFO to PEM wetlands along a 70- foot- wide corridor. HDD
construction does not require trenching as impacts are limited to the entry and exit points for the HDD. The shorter crossings of Gum Swamp Will be open cut.

Construction and operation of the Project will result in the permanent conversion of approximately 3. 5 acres of PFO wetlands to PEM wetlands. There will be no net loss of wetlands as a
result of the Project. There will be relatively minor, short- term direct impact on about 0. 1 acre of surface water during construction. Stream beds and banks will be returned to pre -
construction conditions once the pipelines have been installed. Indirect impacts to waters should be minimal as Best Management Practices ( BMPs) will be installed for the purposes of
erosion and sediment controls. BMPs will be checked regularly to confirm they are functioning as designed and expected.

Piedmont plans to begin construction in March 2020; and, it' s anticipated in- service date is September 2020.

4j. Please upload project drawings for the proposed project.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation

1. Avoidance and Minimization

1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Wetlands, streams and forested areas were avoided to the greatest extent by placing a 100' buffer from wetlands and siting the pipeline along the
eastern most section of agricultural fields where feasible. The largest wetland crossing will use HDD, and the streams will be crossed at a 90- degree
angle to help minimize impacts on surface waters. In other areas where wetlands will be crossed using open cut construction, PING reduced the overall
width its corridor from 130 feet down to 70 feet.

1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:

For the largest wetland crossing, the pipelines will be installed using HDD, which means the permanent pipeline easement will not require earth work.
Tree clearing will be required as part of PNG' s Integrity Management Plan; however stumps and root systems will remain in place.

2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U. S. or Waters of the State

2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U. S. or Waters of the State?

r Yes r No

2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:

Project Name: PNG Lines 456/ 457

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 species list generated pursuant to the information you provided 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.

Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies ( or their designated non- federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally- listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally- protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
03/ 28/ 2019 Event Code: 04EN2000- 2019- E- 01627 2

evaluation and can be found on our web page at http:// www.fws.gov/ raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes

If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally- listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys.

If you determine that the proposed action may affect ( i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect) a federally- protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect ( i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence ( unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.

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.

Not all Threatened and Endangered Species that occur in North Carolina are subject to section 7
consultation with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service. Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon, sea
turtles, when in the water, and certain marine mammals are under purview of the National Marine
Fisheries Service. If your project occurs in marine, estuarine, or coastal river systems you should
also contact the National Marine Fisheries Service, http:// www.nmfs. noaa. gov/

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. If you have any questions or comments, please contact John Ellis
of this office at john_ellis@fws. gov.

RE: lmile search: esil

Dear Katie Talavera:

The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program ( NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.

A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural
communities, natural areas, and/ or conservation/ managed areas within the proposed project
boundary. These results are presented in the attached ' Documented Occurrences' tables and map.

The attached ' Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that
have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these
records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area
if suitable hab' tat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/ managed areas within a one -mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.

If a Federally - listed species is documented within the project area or indicated within a one - mile
radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service
USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:

Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.

Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional
correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water
Management Trust Fund easement, or an occurrence of a Federally - listed species is documented
near the project area.

If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at mtirn y. i, tEerggn dcr_{ v or 919- 707- 8603.

Species/Resource Conclusion ESA Section 7/Eagle Act Notes/Documentation


Name Determination
American alligator Suitable habitat present is deeper Not Required American alligator is listed as Threatened due to
portion of Gum Swamp; surveys not Similarly in Appearance T(S/A). No NCNHP
conducted occurrences within 1 mile.
Wood stork No suitable habitat present No effect Qualified ESI biologists did not identify habitat
associated with Gum Swamp or Jordan Swamp
that would be conducive for wood stork. The
forested wetland is thickly vegetated, and no
large areas of open water were identified during
the evaluation of the study corridor. No
NCNHP occurrences within 1 mile.
Red- cockaded No suitable habitat present No effect Qualified ESI biologists did not identify any
woodpecker suitable pine stands capable of supporting RCW
nesting or foraging. No NCNHP occurrences
within 1 mile.
Michaux’ s sumac No suitable habitat present No effect Qualified ESI biologists walked the ecotone
between the agriculture field and the forested
wetlands throughout the entire study area. The
agriculture activities occur all the way up to the
tree line. Once at the tree line, the vegetation
becomes extremely thick and the landscape
quickly drops into the jurisdictional wetland.
No NCNHP occurrences within 1 mile.
Bald eagle Unlikely to disturb nesting bald eagles No Eagle Act permit No nest within the action area. No NCNHP
required occurrences within 1 mile.
Critical habitat No critical habitat present No effect Per the species list generated through the
ECOS- IPaC online portal
