Subject: Proposed repair of existing structures on SR 1716 (George Sherman Road)
conveying West Prong in Granville County. WBS Element No.
58.203911 4 20a
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to repair the
existing structures on SR 1716 (George Sherman Road) conveying West Prong in
Granville County (Figure 1). The existing structures are 12 foot x 5 foot corrugated
rnetal pipe arches that are 60 feet long. Recent avy rains have resulted in the wash out
of the roadside shoulder extending dawn to the streambank. Additionally, a band
between two pipe segments on the southern-most structure has failed The NCDOT
proposes to repair the failed shoulder and streambank, and re-set the failed bauld. The
repair of the band will require dewatering of the stream.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
The repairs will result in impacts to West Prong (NCDENR-DWQ Index No. 27-13-0.2),
Best Usage Classification WS-IV NSW, HUC 03020101) in the Neuse River Basin.
Permanent Impacts
Bank stabilization activities will result in impacts to West Prong. These impacts are
suinnaarized below:
• X linear feet of bank impact at outlet of the replacement structure and 10 linear feet of
bank impact at inlet of structure-
Temporary Impacts
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the work zone during construction for
approximately four days. This will involve the temporary placement of sand bags or sheet
piling 40 linear feet upstream of the existing inlet and 30 linear feet downstream of the
existing outlet. This will result in a total of 40 linear feet of non-concurrent temporary
stream impacts. To maintain water flow during construction, water upstream of the sand
bags or sheet piling will be temporarily pumped out by a hose and conveyed downstream

of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter through vegetation before
flowing into the stream. The effluent from the work area will be pumped into a
prefabricated silt bag allowing water to slowly filter out of the bag in a dispersed manner
and the sediment to be captured in the bag. The temporary sand bags will be removed
after construction.
Riparian Buffer
Construction at this site involves the road crossing of a stream that is subject to the
Neuse River Buffer Rules. The stream is depicted on the most recent version of the
Grissom topographic quadrangle (USGS, 1978, 1987) (Figure 1) and Soil Survey of
Granville County (USDA-SCS, 1992) (Figure 2). Construction impacts at this site total
3 749 square feet in Zone 1 and 0 square feet in Zone 2 (totaling 70 linear feet of riparian
buffer impac s . ase on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, this crossing is
ALLOWABLE. Temporary erosion control measures will be installed as required within
the permitted buffer footprint.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance;
Permanent impacts to the West Prong cannot be avoided. The existing structures and
streambank must be repaired.
Minimization:
The proposed rip rap at the inlet and outlet of the structures has been minimized as much
as possible while providing the required long-term stability.
Compensatory Mitigation:
Compensatory mitigation will be provided at the request of the regulatory agencies.
Summary
The NCDOT proposes to repair the existing structures on SR 1716 (George Sherman
Road). Application is hereby made for a NCDENR-DWQ Section 401 Water Quality
Certification (WQC) 3657, 3688 and 3689 and Neuse River Buffer Authorization. The
NCDOT proposes to use Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide Permit
(NWPs) 3 and 13; however, these permits do not require notification to the USAGE. An
automated payment procedure has been implemented between the NCDOT and
NCDE.NR-DWQ. This procedure will enable the Division to apply for the 401 WQC
without submitting a check for this permit application. This procedure will provide
payment to the NCDWQ by charging the permit application fee directly to the
appropriate NCDOT WBS Element No. 5B.203911. A pre-construction notification and
permit drawings are attached with this request. If you have any questions or need
additional information, please contact Mr. Chris Murray at [phone].

included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.): N/A
Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: N/A
Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A
VIII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
Avoidance:
Proposed repair of the structures cannot avoid impacts to waters of the United States.
:Minimization:
The proposed rip rap at the inlet and outlet of the structure has been minimized as much as
possible while providing the required long-term stability. NCDOT will implement best
management practices for the protection of surface waters in accordance with the most recent

during design and construction phases of the project.
Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USAGE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when.
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http:/,'h2o.eni.state.ne,us/newetlands/strmgide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as
much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or
map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of
mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description
of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate
sheet if more space is needed.
Mitigation for the project will be provided if requested by the regulatory agencies
1. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the N'CEEP at
[phone] to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating
that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at htrp:/Ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/wry/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
