Re: Recommendation on Bridge No. 29 over Scranton Creek
List of Recommendations
After review of the permit application, I recommend that we issue the permit. The proposed ditches are not
in violation of the ditching policy. Moreover, the impacts are minimal because the impact is resultant from
existing ditches being moved to allow for the placement of an on-site detour bridge. Brad had a similar
issue on another, almost identical, project. We may want to discuss it at the Regional office meetings.

NCDOT Bridge #29
Hydc County
Project Setting
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace Bridge 1129
located on US 264 and NC 45 over Scranton Creek between Belhaven and Swan Quarter in Hyde
County, North Carolina. The bridge is oriented north-south, and the proposed construction will take
place on the upstream (east) side of the bridge. The wetlands in the project area have been delineated
as 404 wetlands by NCDOT but the delineation has not been approved by the US Army Corps of
Engineers.
The bridge is located in an undeveloped area with abundant wetlands, dominated by black
needle rush Juncus roemerianus). The existing right of way contains vegetated uplands with various
grass species, and drainage ditches containing a mix of Coastal Wetlands and other 404 wetland
species. The dominant species in the ditches include wax myrtle, Iva frutescens, Carex sp., other
wetland species. A small area of Coastal Wetlands, dominated by .luncus roemerianus with Tynha
spp. borders the creek, and extends approximately 20 ft. landward on the North side of the bridge.
Also on the North side of the project area, there is a narrow strip of wooded uplands between the
existing ditch and the adjacent .luncus roemerianus marsh. These uplands appear to be growing on
an old spoil berm. On the South side of the project area, there is a ±150' wide area of mixed wetland
between the existing road shoulder and the .luncus roemerianus marsh. The dominant species in this
area include wax myrtle, Iva frutescens, and Carex sp.. '
The navigable water depth at the existing bridge is ±5'. Scranton Creek is ±300' wide at the
existing bridge crossing. All of the existing bridge bents are in the creek proper. Navigation is
limited by the bent configuration of the existing bridge, and the temporary structure will not further
impede navigation. The proposed bridge will increase navigability upstream because there will be
fewer bents in the creek. Scranton Creek is classified as SC-NSW by the Environmental
Management Commission and is not open to shell fishing at this location.
Project Description
The NCDOT proposes to replace an existing ±26' wide by ±300' long two lane bridge over
Scranton Creek with a ±36' wide by ±322' long two lane bridge and to construct a ±24' wide by ±289'
long temporary detour bridge. The existing bridge has twelve bents in Scranton Creek evenly spaced
across the creek. The creek is ±300' wide at the crossing. The proposed bridge will have six bents
in the creek with the center bent approximately in the center of the creek. The existing bridge has
a navigation clearance of±3.5' and the proposed bridge will have a navigational clearance of ±3.5'.
A temporary detour bridge will be constructed on the upstream side of the existing bridge .
NCDOT proposes to temporarily fill ±14,975 ft- of noncoastal 404 wetlands to construct the
temporary detour stricture and its associated approaches. These temporary impacts will be returned
to preproject contours and elevations upon completion of the permanent bridge. Construction of the
replacement bridge will result in the permanent filling of ±400 ft'- of Coastal Wetlands and ±5,903
ft2
NCDOT Bridge 929
Hyde County
Page 2
of noncoastal 404 .vetlands immediately adjacent to the existing; structure. Construction of
permanent drainage ditches will result in excavation of ±5,015 ft` of noncoastal 404 wetlands.
Approximately 70,000 fe of highground will be temporarily filled during; construction of the detour
structure, and ±40,700 ft'- of highground will be permanently filled during construction of the
replacement bridge.
Anticipated Impacts
Construction of the detour structure will result in temporary impacts.,ahat will be restored
upon completion of the replacement bridge. Approximately ±14,975 W of noncoastal 404 wetlands
will be filled to construct the temporary detour structure. Approximately 70,000 fe of highground
will be filled during construction of the detour structure. These impacts will be temporary, and the
effected areas will be returned to preproject contours and elevations upon completion of the
permanent replacement bridge.
Construction of the replacement bridge and widened approaches will result in the permanent
filling of ±400 ft2 of Coastal Wetlands, predominantly vegetated with Juncus roemerianus, and
±5,903 ft' of other 404 wetlands adjacent to the existing structure. This area already impacted by
existing road fill and an existing unassociated fill area ±20' to the east. Permanent drainage ditches
will be constructed in the area that will be impacted by the temporary detour structure, and will result
in the excavation of ±5,015 ft'` of other 404 wetlands. Approximately 40,700 ft'` of highground will
be filled during construction of the replacement bridge. Construction of the new bridge will result
in the shading of 4,152 ft'- of creek bottom. Turbidity from construction activities will vary with
construction technique, water depth and substrate type, and will temporary.
The net impact of the proposed bridge replacement is the permanent loss of ±400 it' of
Coastal Wetlands and ±29,109 ft'- of other 404 wetlands that will be filled or excavated.
Approximately 4,152 ft'- of creek bottom will be shaded by the replacement bridge.

SUBJECT:Application for CAAMA Major Development Permit for the Proposed Replacement
of Bridge No. 29 over Scranton Creek on US 264-NC 45 in Hyde County; TIP No. B-
3193; State Project No. 8.1080501; Federal Aid Project No. BASTP-263(6)
The Department of Transportation is planning on replacing the bridge over Scranton Creek on
US 264 in Hyde County. The aging bridge is becoming structurally deficient and should be
replaced in the near future. The proposed design will result in the construction of a new bridge at ,
the same location; however, it will be necessary to construct a temporary detour immediately east,
of the existing bridge alignment to accommodate traffic during the construction interval. An off_
site detour utilizing existing secondary roads is not feasible.
Project construction will result in the loss of 0.15 acre of Section 404 wetlands due to the
permanent discharge of fill and 0.10 acre from excavation (relocation of ditch) for a total of 0.25
acre (0.247 acre). As pan of the construction of the temporary detour, 0.34 acre of Section 404
wetland (including up to 0.1 acre of coastal wetland) will receive temporary fills. The
Department agrees to prohibit grubbing activities within the detour alignment and require the
placement of a geotechnical fabric under all fills that will be placed to accommodate the detour.
At the conclusion of construction, all temporary fills and fabric will be removed. Upon
inspection with staff from the DCM and the USACE, if substantial changes have occurred to the
underlying wetlands, the Department agrees to undertake compensatory mitigation for losses
agreed to during the post-project, interagency review.
Attempts to minimize impacts to adjacent wetlands from temporary construction were carefully
examined. For example, the use of sheet piling to eliminate impacts from temporary fill slopes
along Elie east side of the temporary fills could potentially reduce wetland impacts only up to 0.1
acre at an estimated cost of $100,000-200,000. The Department feels that such costs
substantially outweigh the benefits that would be derived.

One further resource issue which must be explored because of its importance to aquatic and
estuarine ecosystems is submerged aquatic vegetation. There are stands of SAV in the shallows`,
of the creek, particularly along the north shore. Since the proposed bridge is to be built on the
same alignment as the existing bridge, and since the proposed structure will have 5 less structural
bents in the water than the existing structure, it is reasonable to conclude that less SAV habitat,-_,
will be affected by the proposal. The temporary bridge may result in temporary impacts to SAV;,
but it is also reasonable to anticipate that the population will adjust when the temporary pilings
and the bridge deck have been removed. In order to properly gauge the effect of construction on
existing. SAV populations, the Department will conduct an underwater survey to establish spatial
distribution of SAV, species composition and population densities. This prc-construction survey
will serve as the base line for comparing a later post-construction survey. In order to determine
the effects of factors unrelated to construction activities, similar surveys will be conducted in a
nearby "control" site. Results of the pre-construction survey will be forwarded to the DCM (and
USACE) when the report is published.
Since the proposal will result in development activities in Areas of Environmental Concern,
CAMA application forms MP-1 and MP-5, as well as site drawings, letters and forms to adjacent
riparian landowners and a check for $250.00 are enclosed for your review and consideration.
Also enclosed is a copy of the Categorical Exclusion document and a tear sheet from the U.S:
Army Corps of Engineers, authorizing the proposal under NWP-23.
