Box 8181 <br /> Hillsborough,N.C. 27278 <br /> SUBJECT: Rare Species, High Quality Natural Communities, and Significant Natural <br /> Areas in the Proposed Efland Estate Subdivision, Orange County, North <br /> Carolina <br /> Dear Ms. Fikes: <br /> The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program does not have records of known raze species, high <br /> quality natural communities,or significant natural areas occurring at or within a 1-mile radius of the <br /> Efland Estates subdivision project area. To our knowledge, this project area has not been <br /> systematically inventoried and we cannot definitively state that raze species or significant natural <br /> areas do not occur there. <br /> Enclosed is a list of rare species that are known to occur in Orange County. If suitable habitat for <br /> any of these species occurs in the project area,then those species may be present at the project site. <br /> If it is necessary to be certain that this site does not contain rare species, a field survey would need <br /> to be conducted. <br /> Contact me at the address below or call me at(919) 733-4181 if you have any questions or need <br /> further information. <br /> Sincerely, _ <br /> Amalie Couvillion <br /> Protection Specialist <br /> Natural Heritage Program <br /> /ACC <br /> Enclosures <br /> P.O.
