Subject: NWP 14 request, for the construction of an egress only road (for Talecris
Biotherapeutics Corporation from Powattan Road to Talecris property in
Johnston County, NC. WBS # 59002
Dear Sirs:
Please find enclosed the Pre-Construction Notification for the above referenced project.
The purpose of this new road is to provide an emergency exit for Talecris employees due
to occasional blockage from railroad activities of their main entrance/exit. There are
unavoidable impacts to wetlands, buffers and one stream crossing associated with this
project. An unnamed tributary to the Neuse River is located will be impacted and is
classified by the Division of Water Quality at this crossing as WS -IV, NSW waters. Best
Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters will be strictly adhered to
during conscructuion of this project. Also enclosed is a Talecris mitigation plan to provide
offsets to mitigated buffer impacts associated with this road crossing as well as additional
mitigation that will be banked for future NCDOT projects.
Federally Protected Species and Cultural Resources
The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) currently list four federally protected species for
Johnston County (Table 1).

No element occurrences are listed on the NHP database within one mile of this crossline.
Biological surveys was performed by NCDOT NEU and Chad Coggin DEO on Feb. 10, 2010
with a conclusion of No affect for all four species. Historic and archeological reviews were
performed by NCDOT HEU with a no affect finding.
Minimization Information
impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection
of surface waters and wetlands, restriction against the staging of equipment in or adjacent to
waters of the US, and coordination (including a pre-construction meeting) with the Division
Environmental Officer.

Memorandum to: Chad Coggin, Div. 4 Division Environmental Officer
From Jason W. Mays, Biological Surveys Group
Subject: Novo Nordisk/ Talecris access road environmental evaluation
Jason Mays, from the NCDOT Biological Surveys Group, with help from Chad Coggin, Division
4 Environmental Officer, performed surveys for Tar River spinymussel (Elliptio steinstansana, TSM),
dwarf wedgemnsel (Alasmidonta heterodon, DWM), Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii) and red-
cockaded woodpecker along the alignment for the proposed access road on new location, located behind the
Novo Nordisk facility off of SR 1901, Powaten Rd. in Johnston County, NC. Mussel surveys were
conducted within an unarmed tributary to the Neuse River and extended approximately 1312 It (400m)
downstream of the Iii-nits of construction. Habitat within this tributary was poor to marginal for DWM
which is normally an inhabitant smaller streams: This second order stream did not have the habitat
constituents necessary for TSM which typically inhabits high order streams or rivers. There were no
mollusks or fish observed within the stream during surveys and the stream appears to be subject to periodic
summer drying which would preclude most mollusk fauna. Visual searches for Michaux's sumac within
maintained open areas did not reveal any stems. Appropriate nesting trees for red-cockaded woodpecker
were not present on site.
Biological Conclusions
Tar River spinymussel: No Effect
Dwarf wedgemussel: No Effect
Michaux's sumac: No Effect
Red-cockaded woodpecker: No Effect

Talecris Mitigation Plan
UT to Neuse River
WBS No.59002 Division 4
April 26, 2010
The North Carolina Department of Transportation will perform on-site mitigation for
impacts associated with Talecris access road project, Division 4 WBS No. 59002 in
Clayton NC. An alternative access road is proposed from SR 1901 Powatan Road across
the NovoNordisc property to the eastern side of the Talecris property. The mitigation site
encompasses approximately 1160 feet of an unnamed tributary (UT) to the Neuse River
and occurs on the Talecris property.
NCDOT proposes that the mitigation site will provide 1160 feet of stream enhancement,
75,000 sq ft of buffer restoration, and 1 acre of wetland enhancement. Onsite mitigation
is proposed to offset impacts due to the roadway project of 21 sq ft to Buffer Zone 1 and
1360 sq ft to Buffer Zone 2, for a total debit of 2103 sq feet of buffer mitigation.
Existing Conditions
This project is located in Johnston County near Clayton at the Talecris Biotherapeutic
facility on Hwy 70 (Figure 1). Within the site, the UT to the Neuse River was previously
ponded by a dam at the northern end of the site. Currently, the UT enters the site from the
south at a stone culvert under the railroad. It flows in a northerly direction approximately
1200 feet before to its confluence with another unnamed tributary. The UT then exits the
site across the breached darn of the old pond. The drainage area is 350 acres. The UT is
approximately 8 feet wide and 2 feet deep. The slope varies from.01 to.02 ft/ft. The
banks along the entire channel are fairly stable but are covered only with herbaceous
vegetation. The buffer along the portion of the channel within the old pond bed is
composed of herbaceous vegetation with pines along the outer edge. One acre of wetland
was delineated along this portion of the channel. The buffer along the upper reach of the
channel is wooded.
Proposed Conditions
NCDOT will construct the Talecris access road from Powatan Road across the
NovoNordisc property to the Talecris facility. The access road will enter the Talecris
property from the east and cross the UT of the Neuse River at the location of the old pond
dam. The proposed crossing will be in a baffled culvert on a slope of.02 ft/ft.
NCDOT will enhance approximately 1160 feet of the UT by planting the banks of the
channel with live stakes of silky dogwood (Cornus amomum) and buttonbush
(Cephalanthus occidentahs) on three foot centers. Approximately 75,000 sq feet of
buffer will be restored along both banks of the channel by planting a minimum of 50 feet
with bare root seedlings on 8 foot centers. Bottomland hardwood species will be planted
as available including at least three of the following: water oak (Quercus nigra), tulip
poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), willow oak
(Quercus phellos), sycamore (Platanis occidentalis), water tupelo (Nyssa aquatica),
swamp chestnut oak (Quercus'michauxii).
A two foot sill will be constructed at the culvert inlet to prevent a headcut through the old
pond sediment and stream channel. The site will be protected by placing it in a
conservation easement granted to NCDOT. See the attached Figure 2 for the conservation
easement , stream enhancement, and buffer restoration boundaries.
Monitoring
The site will be visually monitored and documented with photo points for channel
stability and vegetation survival for three years. The conservation easement will be held
in perpetuity and recorded on the Talecris deed. The mitigation site and conservation
easement boundary will also be placed on the Natural Environment Unit's Mitigation
Geodatabase for long term stewardship.
