Governor October 29, 2025 Rachel Fifield Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. 300 Kimball Drive, 4th Floor Parsippany, NJ 07054 Re: Rachel Fifield Block(s) - 174, Lot(s) - part of 1.01 West Orange Township, Essex County Rachel Fifield: Thank you for your data request regarding rare species information for the above referenced project site. Searches of the Natural Heritage Database and the Landscape Project (Version 3.4) are based on a representation of the boundaries of your project site in our Geographic Information System (GIS). We make every effort to accurately transfer your project bounds from the map(s) submitted with the Natural Heritage Data Request Form into our GIS. We do not typically verify that your project bounds are accurate or check them against other sources. We have checked the Landscape Project habitat mapping for occurrences of any rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat on the referenced site. The Natural Heritage Biotics Database was searched for occurrences of rare plant species or ecological communities that may be on the project site. Please refer to Table 1 (attached) to determine if any rare plant species, ecological communities, or rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat are documented on site. A detailed report is provided for each category coded as

to determine if any rare plant species, ecological communities, or rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat are documented on site. A detailed report is provided for each category coded as ‘Yes’ in Table 1. We have also checked the Landscape Project habitat mapping for occurrences of rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat in the immediate vicinity (within ¼ mile) of the referenced site. Additionally, the Natural Heritage Biotics Database was checked for occurrences of rare plant species or ecological communities within ¼ mile of the site. Please refer to Table 2 (attached) to determine if any rare plant species, ecological communities, or rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat are documented within the immediate vicinity of the site. Detailed reports are provided for all categories coded as ‘Yes’ in Table 2. These reports may include species that have also been documented on the project site. We have also checked the Landscape Project habitat mapping for all occurrences of rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat within one mile of the referenced site. Please refer to Table 3 (attached) to determine if any rare wildlife species or wildlife habitat is documented within one mile of the project site. Detailed reports are provided for each category coded as ‘Yes’ in Table 3. These reports may include species that have also been documented on the project site. For requests submitted in order to make a riparian zone width determination as part of a Flood Hazard Area Control Act (FHACA) rule application, we report records for all rare plant species and ecological communities tracked by the Natural Heritage Program that may be on, or in the immediate vicinity of, your project site. A subset of these plant species is also covered by the FHACA rules when the records are located within one mile of the project site. One-mile searches for FHACA plant species will only report precisely located occurrences for those wetland plant species identified under the FHACA regulations as being critically dependent on the watercourse. Please refer to Table 3 (attached) to determine if any NHP File No. 25-4007473-34997

precisely located rare wetland plant species covered by the FHACA rules have been documented. Detailed reports are provided for each category coded as ‘Yes’ in Table 3. These reports may include species that have also been documented on, or in the immediate vicinity of, the project site. The Natural Heritage Program reviews its data periodically to identify priority sites for natural diversity in the State. Included as priority sites are some of the State’s best habitats for rare and endangered species and ecological communities. Please refer to Tables 1, 2 and 3 (attached) to determine if any priority sites are located on, in the immediate vicinity, or within one mile of the project site. A list of rare plant species and ecological communities that have been documented from the county (or counties), referenced above, can be downloaded from https://nj.gov/dep/parksandforests/natural/heritage/database.html. If suitable habitat is present at the project site, the species in that list have potential to be present. Status and rank codes used in the tables and lists are defined in EXPLANATION OF CODES USED IN NATURAL HERITAGE REPORTS, which can be downloaded from https://nj.gov/dep/parksandforests/natural/docs/nhpcodes_2010.pdf. Beginning January 6, 2025, the Natural Heritage Program reports for wildlife species will utilize data from Landscape Project Version 3.4. If you have questions concerning the wildlife records or wildlife species mentioned in this response, we recommend that you visit the interactive web application at the following URL, https://dep.nj.gov/njfw/landscapeapp/, or contact the Division of Fish and Wildlife, Endangered and Nongame Species Program at (609) 292-9400. Occurrences of Bald Eagle nest and roost habitat have “special concern” rank and are included in Landscape Project Version 3.4. The DEP also recognizes that the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service maintains additional jurisdiction pursuant to the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA). They provide guidance to avoid negative impacts in the “National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines” document found at https://www.fws.gov/sites/default/files/documents/national-bald- eagle-management-guidelines_0.pdf. They also provide a screening tool to help identify activities that may require a Federal permit, at https://www.fws.gov/media/northeast-bald-eagle-project-screening-form. For

ement-guidelines_0.pdf. They also provide a screening tool to help identify activities that may require a Federal permit, at https://www.fws.gov/media/northeast-bald-eagle-project-screening-form. For occurrences of Osprey nests and other bird nests that persist year to year, active nests continue to be protected from disturbance that can result in “take” (i.e., disturbance that can cause abandonment or loss) pursuant to the NJ Endangered and Nongame Species Conservation Act (ENSCA) and the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act. As a result of delisting of Osprey to “stable” conservation status, Osprey nests are not represented in Landscape Project maps, but nest locations are available online at www.Osprey-Watch.org. For additional information regarding any Federally listed plant or animal species, please contact the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, New Jersey Field Office at http://www.fws.gov/northeast/njfieldoffice/endangered/consultation.html. Information supplied by the Natural Heritage Program summarizes existing data known to the program at the time of the request regarding the biological elements (species and/or ecological communities) or their locations. They should never be regarded as final statements on the elements or areas being considered, nor should they be substituted for on-site surveys required for environmental assessments. Thank you for consulting the Natural Heritage Program. The attached invoice details the payment due for processing this data request. Feel free to contact us again regarding any future data requests.
