Brian,
Our proposal is to use the culvert removal at site 4 as well as the planting of the
portion of stream relocation at site 3 without 30 ft buffers to offset the remaining
portion of stream impacts at site 3 that would not be mitigated by the natural
stream design at site 3.
To break it down by numbers would be as follows:
The permanent stream impacts at site 3 are 865 feet.
The on site stream mitigation (natural stream design with at least 30 ft buffers) at
site 3 is 535 feet.
The remaining impacts at site 3 requiring mitigation would be 330 feet (865' -
535'). This remaining 330 feet would be mitigated by the culvert removal at site 4
and replanting the stream relocation at site 3 in areas with less than 30' buffers.
So planting the portion of stream relocation at site 3 with less than 30 ft buffers
is not providing mitigation by itself but in conjunction with the culvert removal at
site 4.
Let us know if this makes sense or is acceptable.
Thanks,
Andrew

I have some questions regarding the "Other Discussion" section of the minutes. It
appears that the group approved providing mitigation for removal of the culvert at
site 4 and for replanting the stream relocation at site 3 in areas with less than
30' buffers. I can understand looking at mitigation for the culvert removal at site
4. However, as noted in our comments, DWQ cannot provide mitigation for stream
relocations with buffers less than.30' wide. If I have misunderstood this, please
let me know. Thanks.

There have been some design changes to this project since the 4c meeting on
3/18/2009. The design changes are as follows:
The existing 3 @ 10' x 11' RCBC under I-40 (site 4) will have to be removed due to
the extra fill being placed on the culvert and the condition of the existing
culvert. Due to the large amount of fill in this area a cost analysis was done
which compared the cost of replacing the culvert with a new culvert and with
replacing it with a bridge. It was determined that replacing the culvert with a
bridge would save about $1,200,000. This is mainly due to the extensive amount of
temporary shoring that would be required to replace the culvert with a culvert. We
are therefore proposing to replace the culvert with a single span bridge 172' long..
The channel under the bridge will be stabilized with rip rap on the banks and not in
the stream bed. We are not proposing natural stream design for the new stream
channel where the old culvert was located. The stream impacts should not change for
this site.
Due to a conflict with the Duke Energy power lines that run through this projects
interchange the alignment of Ramp A and B will have to be moved to keep their
intersections with NC 18 out of the Duke Energy Right of way. This will result in
the alignment of Ramp A impacting more of the stream
at site 3 where the stream relocation is proposed. This change has not been
finalized but will result in approximately 100 more feet of stream impact. It will
also reduce the amount of natural stream design for this site from 700 feet to about
500 feet. This is due to the alignment being shifted north which will prevent us
from maintaining a 30' buffer for that part of the stream relocation. We may also
have to use rip rap on the stream banks or along the toe of the fill slope through
the portion of stream that does not have the 30' buffer.
I have attached some sketches of the changes for review.
Would you all like to have another meeting to review these changes with the team?
Let me know how you would like to proceed.
Thanks,
Andrew
