LYNM TIPPETT SECRETARY U LE I Subject: Secondary Road Improvements to SR 1919 (Canal Road), Union County. State Work Order No. 6.692342 (DWQ Minor Permit Fee $200.00). Dear Mr. Lund: The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade SR 1919 from SR 1005 (Landsford Road) for 0.75 mile, in Union County. SR 1919 is an unpaved roadway that will be upgraded to a paved roadway. Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G. S. 136-44.6, 136-44.7, 136-44.7A, 136- 44.8 and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries, recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a thoroughfare. SR 1919 is scheduled for paving in the 2002-2003 Secondary Roads Construction Program. Protected Species The subject project has been reviewed for the presence of listed threatened and endangered species. It has been determined that the construction of this project will have no effect on any listed plant or animal species. Impacts to Waters of the United States This project cannot be completed without impacts to waters of the United States. The project lies in the Yadkin River Basin (Hydrologic Unit # 03040105), affecting the drainage of an unnamed tributary to Rocky River. Stream impacts will be incurred due to existing pipe replacements and one bridge replacement. There will be approximately 30 linear feet of permanent impacts to the existing stream channels as a result of the proposed construction. 716 West Main Street, Albemarle, NC 28001 • (704) 982-0101 • Fax (704) 982-3146 r. Wetland Impacts There are no wetland impacts that will result from the construction of this project. Stream Impacts There will be one intermittent stream impacted as a result of the proposed project. Table 1 includes information related to site number, stream name, existing pipe length (ft), existing pipe width (in), proposed replacement or extended pipe length (ft) and width (in). Table 1. Impacts to Stream s from impro vements to SR 1919 Canal Road Site No. Stream Name Existing ; Length feet :Existing ; Width (inches) Proposed . Length . F (feet) -Proposed =V Width inches Sta. 26+46.87 UT of Lanes Creek 28' 18" 48' 24" Note: "UT' refers to unnamed tributary. Dewaterina The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream, as needed, during the construction of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags, sheet metal cofferdams, or Class B or Class 2 riprap, covered with filter fabric, in the stream channel approximately 10 feet upstream of the proposed pipe inlet. In order to maintain water flow during construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter through vegetation before flowing back into the stream channel. This activity will result in temporary impacts to the aforementioned surface water. Approximately 70 linear feet of stream channel will need to be dewatered. This would result in 105 square feet of dewatered streambed. Any dewatering activity that occurs will be conducted for less than five consecutive working days and the sandbags or rip rap covered filter fabric will be entirely removed from the stream channel after construction. The volume of temporary fill required for this activity would consist of no more than 6 cubic yards per structure. The NCDOT believes that this project can be authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide Permit 14 and 33. Avoidance/Minimization All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters. The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible and the proposed roadway adjusted to lessen the impacts to jurisdictional sites. Sedimentation and erosion control Best Management The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible and the proposed roadway adjusted to lessen the impacts to jurisdictional sites. Sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during project construction. Continued coordination will occur between maintenance forces and the Division Environmental Officer during construction in an effort to minimize impacts to jurisdictional sites. Compensatory Mitigation At this time, the NCDOT does not anticipate the need for compensatory mitigation based upon the limited impacts associated with the construction of this project. Summary The purpose of this letter is to request authorization to construct the proposed project under Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14. Additionally, the NCDOT requests authorization under Section 404 Nationwide Permit 33 for temporary impacts that will result from dewatering activities associated with this project. Application is also made to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. GC3375 that is required for this project. The 401 WQC No. GC3366 (which corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as the NCDOT intends to comply with the conditions for the WQC. If you have any questions or need any additional information concerning this project, please fee free to contact Mr. Larry Thompson, Division Environmental Officer, at (704) 982-0101.
