References: Section 404 Individual Permit, issued 6/2/2009, USACE Action ID SAW-2009-00032-
241.
Section 401 Individual Water Quality Certification, issued 3/4/2009, NCDENR-DWQ
Water Quality Certification No. 3782, NCDWQ Project No. 20081797
Notification of Unauthorized Activity/Permit Noncompliance, issued 1/20/2010, USACE
Action ID: 2009-00032
Debit $570.00 from WBS Element 35007.1.1.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to extend SR 4126 (Bridford
Pkwy, new route) from SR 1541 (Wendover Ave.) at Hornaday Rd. to Burnt Poplar Rd. at Swing Rd. in
Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina. The proposed 1.1 mi. extension consists of a four-lane
curb and gutter section with a raised grass median, 12-ft. inside lanes, and 14-ft. outside lanes, as well as
the realignment of Big Tree Way with Bridford Pkwy and structures over I-40. The purpose of this
submittal is to request a permit modification to the Section 404 permit and Section 401 Water Quality
Certification for U-4006. Please see the enclosed copies of the revised permit drawing sheets, and
revised summary table.
The revised design does not compromise NCDOT's compliance with the existing permit conditions. The
revision has been evaluated for compliance with the avoidance/minimization criteria and is in compliance
with all previous issues, including the following:

Changes in impacts are due to culvert alignment at Site 1, UT to South Buffalo Creek (see enclosed
revised permit drawings sheets 15 of 15 and 4a of 15). NCDOT was permitted eight feet of bank
stabilization at the culvert outlet only. Impacts to this site have increased to include an additional 30 feet
of bank stabilization at the culvert inlet and 20 feet of bank stabilization at the culvert outlet. Mitigation
for the additional 50 feet of bank stabilization is not required from the USACE or NCDWQ. NCDOT
will further monitor. culvert placement for natural sedimentation fill-in and possible head cutting.
A copy of the permit modification with these revisions will be posted on the NCDOT website at:
http://www.ncdot.org/doh/preconstruct/pe/. If you have any questions or need additional information,
please call James Pflaum at 919-431-6527.
