Dear Mr. O'Quinn:
Reference your application of may 18, 1993, for Department of the Army (DA)
authorization to place fill material in 3.21 acres of wetlands above the headwaters
of Smith Creek to construct a segment of the Smith Creek Parkway from NC Highway
132 to US Highway 74 in Wilmington, Now Romer City; North Carolina.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33, Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the Federal Register on
November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was provided, pursuant
to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, for discharges of dredged or fill material
into headwaters and isolated waters.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is accomplished
in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and provided you receive a
Section 401 water quality certification from the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management (NCDEM) and, in the coastal area, a consistency
determination from the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM). You
should contact Mr. John Dorney, telephone [phone], regarding water quality
certification, and Mr. Steve Benton, telephone [phone], regarding
consistency determination. This nationwide permit does not relieve you of the
responsibility to obtain other required State or local approval.
This verification will be valid for two years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued or revoked. Also, this
verification will remain valid for the two years if, during that period, the
nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the activity
complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit authorization.
If during the two years, the nationwide permit authorization expires or is
suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity would no longer comply
with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit, activities which have
commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract to commence in
reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain authorized provided the activity
is completed within twelve months of the date of the nationwide permit's
expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has been
exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or revoke the authorization.

Dear Sir:

SECRETARY
SUBJECT: New Hanover County, Proposed construction of Smith
Creek Parkway from NC 132 (College Rd.) to US 74
(Eastwood Rd.), State Project No. 8.2250101, TIP
No. U-0092D.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation is
proposing to construct a segment of the Smith Creek Parkway
from NC 132 to US 74 in Wilmington. This 1.1 mile segment is
the first of four sections of the 7.8 mile total Smith Creek
Parkway project. This section involves the construction of
three 12' travel lanes in each direction, with an eighteen to
twenty foot median. Signalized intersections are pro d
where the parkway crosses NC 132, US 17, and US 74
The proposed project will lead to the loss 3.09 a res
of wetlands and :I acres of Waters of the US whe e the
alignment crossering Branch (see enclosed s?eets 5of 9, 6
of 9, 7 of 9). Spring Branch will also be rechannelized for
approximately 500 feet at this crossing (sheet 6 of 9).
Additionally, two ditches that have been classified as Waters
of the US will be impacted. At station 255+75 (see sheet 4 of
9) a small drainage ditch will be replaced with a 30"
reinforced concrete pipe. At station 263 (see sheet 5 of 9),
a 42" reinforced concrete pipe is proposed to allow a small
stream to flow underneath the roadway. The Waters of the US
jurisdiction at this site extends from the centerline south.
Impacts to jurisdictional Waters of the US at these two sites
-
totals 4-.-O-6-acres.
©.(2
Avoidance of wetland impacts will not be possible. Any
shift of the alignment northward would still lead to an impact
7qA
r t
to wetlands associated with the crossing of Spring Branch, and
would also lead to a significantly greater number of
relocatees. A slight southern alignment shift would lead to
greater impacts to Spring Branch, while a further shift
southward would lead to unacceptable impacts to the Corning
Glass plant.
Wetland impacts have been minimized as much as possible
by the choice of the preferred alignment. As mentioned above,
an alignment shift northward would not decrease wetland
impacts, and a shift to the south would lead to greater
impacts to Spring Branch. Maximum side slopes will be
utilized to further minimize wetland encroachment.
According to Mr. Ernie Jahnke (COE-Wilmington), this
project is a candidate for authorization under Nationwide
Permit 26 (Above-Headwaters). Projects authorized under
Nationwide Permits do not require compensatory mitigation-to
offset wetland habitat losses. However, in this specific
case, NCDOT has identified an area immediately adjacent to th
project that we propose to utilize to mitigate for wetland
losses. This area, 4.5 acres in size, is directly south ofd?
the proposed alignment (see sheets 2 of 9, 3 of 9, 4 of 9
5--of 9). Small pine seedlings are currently___growing-on part
of This-ar-ea.--(-sheets-- 2--of--9-) whil=e-the rest of the site
involves areas where several homes are now located (3 of 9, 4
of 9, 5 of 9). These homes are to be removed prior to
initiation of construction. Specifics of NCDOT's proposed
mitigation effort can be found in the enclosed mitigation
plan.
It is anticipated that this construction activity
qualifies for Federal authorization pursuant to the pre-
discharge notification provisions set forth in Nationwide
Permit 33 CFR 330.6(B.26). Application is hereby made for
Department of Army permits as required for such activities.
Enclosed please find a pre-discharge notification form and
permit drawings for this project. We are also requesting a
401 Water Quality Certification from the Division of
Environmental Management. The North Carolina Division of
Coastal Management has indicated that Coastal Area Management
Act authorization is not required for this project.
By copy of this application we are also requesting
comments from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National
Marine Fisheries Service regarding the presence of any
federally listed or proposed threatened or endangered species
or critical habitat, and from the State Historic Preservation
Office regarding the presence of any historic properties in
the area.
s
If you have any questions, or if we may provide any
further information, please contact Mr. Doug Huggett of
NCDOT's Environmental Unit at [phone].

MITIGATION PLAN
New Hanover County
Proposed construction of Smith Creek Parkway
from NC 132 (College Rd.) to US 74 (Eastwood Rd.)
State Project No. 8.2250101
TIP No. U-0092D.
PROJECT SCOPE
The proposed action involves construction of a segment of the
Smith Creek Parkway from NC 132 to US 74 in Wilmington. This 1.1
mile segment is the first of four sections of the 7.8 mile total
Smith Creek Parkway project. This section involves the construction
of three 12' travel lanes in each direction, with an eighteen to
twenty foot median. Signalized intersections are proposed where the
parkway crosses NC 132, US 17, and US 74.
IMPACTS
The proposed project will lead to the loss of 3.09 acres of
wetlands and 0.06 acres of Waters of the US where the alignment
crosses Spring Branch (see enclosed sheets 5 of 9, 6 of 9, 7 of 9).
Additionally, two ditches that have been classified as Waters of the
US will be impacted. At station 255+75 (see sheet 4 of 9) a small
drainage ditch will be replaced with a 30" reinforced concrete pipe.
At station 263 (see sheet 5 of 9), a 42" reinforced concrete pipe is
proposed to allow a small stream to flow underneath the roadway. The
Waters of the US jurisdiction at this site extends from the
centerline south. Impacts to jurisdictional Waters of the US at
these two sites totals 0.06 acres.
MITIGATION
The proposed mitigation site, which is 4.5 acres in size, is
directly south of the proposed alignment (see sheets 2 of 9, 3 of 9,
4 of 9 and 5 of 9). Small pine seedlings are currently growing on
part of this area (sheets 2 of 9) , while the rest of the site
involves areas where several homes are now located (3 of 9, 4 of 9, 5
of 9). These homes are to be removed prior to initiation of
construction. NCDOT plans to grade the mitigation site from the edge
of the roadway embankment to the bank of Spring Branch (Sheet 8 of 9,
Section A-A). The mitigation site will be graded to approximate
elevation +18' at a 0% slope. After grading of the sites are
completed, bottomland hardwood species such as River Birch (Betula
nigra), Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), Black Gum (Nyssa
sylvatica), Overcup Oak ( uercus.lyrata), Swamp Chestnut Oak ( uercus
michauxii) and Water Oak ( uercus nigra) will be planted on 8 foot
average centers to compensate for project related wetland impacts.
Species compositions will be approximately equal. If less than six
species are available at the time of planting, NCDOT will consult
with environmental agency personnel to determine an acceptable course
of action. NCDOT will attempt to obtain seedlings a minimum of one
year old (12-18" tall). If possible, all seedlings will be obtained
from suppliers at approximately the same longitude as the planting
site.
MONITORING
To insure the success of our mitigation effort, The North
Carolina Department of Transportation has developed a monitoring plan
for this proposed bottomland hardwood creation effort. This
monitoring plan is attached.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation will insure that
the mitigation site will exceed the 1987 Manual criteria for wetland
hydrology (ie. be saturated to within 12 inches of the surface,
ponded, or flooded for at least 50 or =12 days of the growing
season). NCDOT will document, by monitoring wells or visual
observation, that this hydrology parameter has been met. Locations
and numbers of monitoring wells, if utilized, will be established
through coordination with Corps of Engineers personnel. Installation
of any wells will take place prior to planting.
NCDOT proposes a success criteria of at least 320 trees per acre
surviving for at least three years. If, at any point during the
monitoring process, the number of stems per acre drops below 320,
NCDOT will consult with Corps personnel to determine appropriate
corrective actions.
In order to determine the number of stems per acre, NCDOT
proposes to utilize permanent sample plots which adequately represent
the site. No more than one 0.05 acre plot per acre will be utilized.
The number and location of these sites will be determined through
consultation with Corps personnel after initial planting.
MITIGATION PLAN SUMMARY
As proposed, the project will lead to a loss o /3.09, acres of
wetland habitat and 0.12 acres of jurisdictional Wat r-s- of the US.
Successful implementation of NCDOT's mitigation proposal will lead to
the creation of 4.50 acres of wetland habitat: This area will not
only serve to replace lost wetland habitat, but will also act as a
stormwater runoff buffer zone between the roadway and Spring Branch.
The created wetland system will be in NCDOT permanent right of
way, and will therefore be protected from future development.
