Pre-Construction Notification for Nationwide 14
CD_,I Project No. 76360-67708
Dear Mr. McMillan:
Charlotte-Douglas Airport proposes to construct improvements to Airport Drive adjacent to
the Charlotte-Douglas International Airport. The project consists of the vertical raising, of
approximately 1,200 linear feet of airport Drive between Ashley Circle and West Boulevard
and is needed to improve the existing roadway. The project site consists of residential and
light industrial properties on Airport Drive. The scope of work includes the replacement of an
existing storm water culvert with new materials and conversion of a short length of piped
storm water conveyance to an open channel.
Enclosed please find five copies of the Pre-Construction :Notification Application for the
project and a check in the amount of 570.00 for the permit fee. Please review this application
and call me at (704) 342-446 should you have any questions or concerns.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
To minimize impacts we will be removing the existing damaged culvert for 250 feet and replacing this with an open channel to
convey intermittent stormwater flows. The channel has been designed to carry the appropriate design storm without eroding at
the bottom or on the stream banks. Use of rip rap has been minimized and vegetation has been specified. The replacement
culvert beneath the roadway will be embedded.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
During construction the damaged culvert will be removed and a new channel constructed. Sediment and erosion control will
be used to protect the downstream waters during construction. The channel will be constructed and restored with natural
vegetation.

2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for
impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State? ? Yes ® No
