ATTN: Mr. Richard Spencer
NCDOT Coordinator
Subject: Nationwide 23 Permit Application for the proposed grade separation
intersection of US 74 and SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) in Robeson County. Federal
Aid Project No. STPNHS-74(66), TIP No. W-4704. WBS Element 37723.1.1
Please find enclosed permit drawings and half-size plan sheets for the above referenced project.
A Categorical Exclusion (CE) was completed for this project on June 13, 2007 and distributed
shortly thereafter. Additional copies are available upon request. The North Carolina Department
of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to install a grade separation at the intersection of US 74
and SR 2210 (ICingsdale Road) in Robeson County. The project involves conversion of an at
grade intersection to a grade separation bridge. The new structure will consist of two 99'6"
spans (199' total length) with a width of 33'3". A footing on piles will be utilized for the interior
bent. There will be 0.38 acre of permanent impacts to non-riverine wetlands. Traffic will be
detoured off-site, on surrounding roads, during construction.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
General Description: The project is located in the Lumber River basin (NCDWQ sub-basins 03-07-
51 and 03-07-54, HUC 03040206). The entire project area is located on an interstream divide,
therefore no jurisdictional streams occur in the project area. One man-made pond is located in the
northeast quadrant of the project study area. No waters classified as High Quality Water (HQW),
Water Supplies (WS-I or WS-II), listed Section 303(d) impairments, or Outstanding Resource
Waters (ORW) occur within 1.0 mile of the project study area.
Permanent Impacts: Wetlands within the project study area will be impacted by the proposed
project. Construction of the proposed project will result in permanent impacts to non-riverine
wetlands, including 0.25 acre of fill in 404 wetlands due to roadway and slope fill, and 0.13 acre
due to excavation in wetlands. Permanent impacts to wetlands total 0.38 acre.

Temporary Impacts: No temporary impacts to wetlands will result from this project.
Hand Clearing: There will be 0.08 acre of hand clearing in wetlands.
Utility Impacts: There will be no impacts to jurisdictional resources due to the relocation of
utilities. Any utility relocations, adjustments, or mechanized clearing performed by the utility
companies shall occur outside of the wetland boundaries. If the utility companies install their
proposed facilities by directional bore, then bore pits shall be located outside of wetland
boundaries.
Federally Protected Species
As of January 31, 2008, the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists three federally
protected species for Robeson County (Table 1).
Table 1. Federally Protected Species in Robeson County
Federal Biological
Common Name Scientific Name l3abitat
Status Conclusion
American alligator Alligator T (S/A) N/A N/A
mississi iensis
Red-cockaded Picoides borealis E No No Effect
wood ecker
Michaux's sumac Rhus michauxii E Yes No Effect
Bald Eagle
Effective August 8, 2007, the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) was delisted from the
Endangered Species Act. A Biological Conclusion is no longer necessary for this species. The
bald eagle is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. No suitable nesting or
foraging habitat exists within 660 feet of the project limits.
Avoidance and Minimization
Avoidance examines all appropriate and practicable possibilities of averting impacts to "Waters
of the United States". Due to the presence of surface waters and wetlands within the project study
area, avoidance of all impacts is not possible. The NCDOT is committed to incorporating all
reasonable and practicable design features to avoid and minimize jurisdictional impacts.
Minimization measures incorporated as part of the project design included:
• Use of an off-site detour during construction
• Avoidance of impacts to surface waters located within the project limits
Mitigation
There are no available nonriverine mitigation credits within HUC 03040206. NCDOT proposes
debiting the Juniper Bay Mitigation site (JBMS) at a 1:1 ratio for the 0.38 acres of unavoidable
NCDOT TIP W-4704

a-
impacts. The JBMS is in the adjacent HU within the Lumber River Basin and has been in the
ground for 2 years, as described below.
The DBMS is a Carolina bay located in Robeson County, North Carolina comprising 728.5 acres.
The site, located in HUC 03040203, was constructed by the North Carolina Department of
Transportation in 2005.
The JBMS previously was used for agricultural production with a drainage ditch network
constructed to drain the site. The hydrologic restoration plan involves systematically plugging
and backfilling the interior ditch network to increase surface and subsurface water storage
capacity and to increase the retention of water onsite. The wetland vegetation restoration plan is
to establish two natural community types: Peatland Atlantic White Cedar Forest/Bay Forest and
Pond Pine WoodlandBay Forest.
The DBMS has met the hydrologic and vegetative success criteria over the majority of the site.
The monitoring report is posted on the EEP webpage at the following link:

Project Schedule
The review date for this project is September 2, 2008 and the Let Date is October 21, 2008.
Regulatory Approvals
Section 404 Permit: All aspects of this project are being processed by the Federal Highway
Administration as a "Categorical Exclusion" in accordance with 23 CFR 771.115(b). The
NCDOT requests that a Nationwide Permit 23 authorize these activities (72 CFR; 11092-11198,
March 12, 2007).
Section 401 Permit: We anticipate 401 General Certification numbers 3701 will apply to this
project. NCDOT will adhere to all conditions of this General Water Quality Certification.
NCDOT is providing two copies of this application to the North Carolina Department of
Environmental and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality, for their review.
A copy of this application will be posted on the NCDOT website at:
http://www.ncdot. org~oh/preconstruct/pe/neu/permit. html

At the Intersection of US 74 and SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road)
Federal Aid Project No. STPNHS-74 (66)
W.B.S. No. 37723.1.1
T.I.P. No. W-4704
INTRODUCTION: Project W-4704 is included in the approved 2007-2013 State
Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) and is eligible for the Federal-Aid Program. The
location is shown in Figure 1. No substantial environmental impacts are anticipated; therefore,
the project is classified as a Federal "Categorical Exclusion".
I. PURPOSE AND NEED STATEMENT
At the intersection of US 74 and SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road), twenty-three accidents have been
reported in a recent 3-year study; three of these accidents were fatal. To improve the safety of
this intersection and to allow the future upgrading of US 74 to interstate standards, this
intersection needs to be upgraded.
II. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The project is located at the intersection of US 74 and SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) south of
Lumberton in Robeson County (see Figure 1). Land use in the area is mainly agricultural with
some scattered residences along SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road).
US 74 is classified as a principal arterial in the National Highway System and is a strategic
highway corridor. SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) is classified as a local route in the Statewide
Functional Classification System and it is not a National Highway System Route.
Neither US 74 nor SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) are designated bicycle routes.
In the vicinity of the intersection, US 74 is a four-lane divided facility with right and left turns
entering the intersection in either direction (see Figure 3). SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) is a two-
lane roadway with concrete medians at the intersection (see Figure 3).
US 74 had a 2005 traffic volume of 8000 to 9200 vehicles per day (VPD), and is expected to
increase to 22,800 to 24,600 VPD by the year 2030. The volumes include 19%truck-tractor
semi-trailer (TTST) and 6% dual-tired vehicles (DT).
SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) had a 2005 traffic volume of 1200 VPD, and is expected to
increase to 2200 to 2400 VPD by the year 2030, however creating this grade separation will

reduce the future traffic to .400 VPD. Truck percentages on SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) are 1
TTST's and 2% DT's.
The posted speed limit on US 74 is 55 miles per hour. The speed limit is not posted for SR
2210 (Kingsdale Road).
The existing right of way on SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) ranges from 60 ft to 200 ft. The
existing right of way along US 74 is approximately 340 ft.
III. ALTERNATIVES
A. Project Description
The proposed bridge is approximately 200 ft in length, 30 ft wide, and a vertical clearance of
16 feet 11 inches. The length and vertical clearance of the bridge will accommodate future
upgrades of US 74 to interstate standards. The total project length of the improvement along
SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) will be approximately 0.51 miles.
The project will have a design speed of 60 miles per hour.
The existing roadway approach on SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) will remain two lanes and will
be repaved. This roadway is classified as a local route, however it has been designed to rural
collector standards because of the possibility this grade separation might be changed to an
interchange in the future
No improvements will occur to US 74, with the exception of the addition of median pier
protection and removal of left turn lanes for approximately 500 ft on each side of the grade
separation and regrading the median ditch. The project is designed to utilize the existing right
of way; therefore minimal additional right of way is required.
Utilities that will be relocated during construction are; Robeson County water line, buried
telephone facilities, and aerial power facilities.
2

B. Reasonable and Feasible Alternatives
Only one alternative was studied in detail for improving the existing intersection. The
alternative involves converting the existing at-grade intersection to a grade separation. US 74
will remain the same, with SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) to be reconstructed with atwo-lane
bridge over US 74.
During construction, anoff--site detour for SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) traffic will be utilized.
US 74 will remain open. Up to an 18-month duration of construction is expected on this
project.
C. Alternatives Eliminated from Further Consideration
The "do-nothing" alternative would allow the traffic safety problems to continue to worsen at
the existing intersection and US 74 would not be upgraded to interstate standards. This is not
acceptable due to the number of accidents and fatalities that have occurred in the last several
years.
An alternative was initially proposed to install a traffic signal at the intersection. After further
review of future traffic and the plans to upgrade US 74 to interstate standards, it was decided
that this alternative was inadequate.
An interchange was not considered because of access to an interchange to the west at NC 41
and US 74, 3.2 miles from the project.
IV. ESTIMATED COSTS
The estimated costs for the alternative is as follows:
Table 1: Project Cost
;:Cost
Structure $ 908,000
Roadway $2,552,061
Utility Construction $ 124,750
Misc. & Mob. $ 765,189
Eng. & Contingencies $ 650,000
Total Construction Cost $5,000,000
Right-of--Way Costs $ 30,000
Total Project Cost $5,030,000

V. NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
A. Physical Characteristics
1. Water Resources
The project is located in the Lumber River basin (NCDWQ sub-basins 03-07-51 and 03-07-
54, HUC 03040206). The entire project area is located on an interstream divide. Therefore, no
jurisdictional streams occur in the project area. One man-made pond is located in the northeast
quadrant of the project study area.
No waters classified as High Quality Water (HQW), Water Supplies (WS-I or WS-II), listed
Section 303(d) impairments, or Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW) occur within 1.0 mile
(1.6 km) of the project study area.
2. Biotic Resources
Four terrestrial communities were identified within the project area: maintained disturbed,
mixed pine/hardwood forest, early succession pine forest, and bottomland hardwood forest.
The estimated impacts are listed in Table 2.
Table 2: Estimated Area of Terrestrial Communities within Project Area
Communi `Area acres
Maintained/Disturbed 34.5
Mixed Pine/Hardwood Forest 2,9
Earl Succession Pine Forest 1.0
Non-Riverine Wet Hardwood Forest 2.7
Total Area: 41.1
B. Jurisdictional Topics
1. Surface Waters and Wetlands
Jurisdictional wetlands occur within the project area and approximately 0.5 acres will be
impacted by project construction. These non-riparian forested wetlands occur on an
interstream divide. The only surface water present is a man-made pond, which will not be
impacted.
2. Permits
Because of impacts to jurisdictional surface waters, permits and certifications from various
state and federal agencies will be required prior to construction activities.

Construction is likely to be authorized by Nationwide Permit (NWP) No. 23, as promulgated
under 61 FR 65874, 65916; December 13, 1996. This permit authorizes activities undertaken,
assisted, authorized, regulated, funded, or financed in whole or in part, by another Federal
agency or department where that agency or department has determined that, pursuant to the
Council on Environmental Quality Regulations for Implementing the Procedural Provisions of
the National Environmental Policy Act:
• the activity, work, or discharge is categorically excluded from environmental
documentation because it is included within a category of actions which neither
individually nor cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment; and
• the Office of the Chief Engineer has been furnished notice of the agency's or department's
application for the categorical exclusion and concurs with that determination.
This project will also require a 401 Water Quality Certification or waiver thereof, from the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) prior to issuance of the NWP 23.
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act requires that the state issue or deny water certification for
any federally permitted or licensed activity that results in a discharge into Waters of the U.S.
Final permit decision rests with the United States Army Corps of Engineers (LTSACE).
3. Mitigation
The December 14, 1989 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between EPA and the
Department of the Army on Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines sets forth the
policy and procedures to be used in the determination of the type and level of mitigation
necessary to demonstrate compliance with the Clean Water Act. The purpose of the MOA is
to implement the objective of the Clean Water Act to restore and maintain the chemical,
physical, and biological integrity of the Nation's waters, including wetlands. As part of the
MOA, a project assessment procedure is set forth requiring a sequential assessment of (1)
impact avoidance, (2) impact minimization, and (3) compensatory mitigation for unavoidable
impacts. Adherence to sequencing during project planning and design stages is intended to
assist in attaining a goal of no net overall loss of wetland functions and values.
Avoidance of wetlands was not possible due to utilizing the existing right of way and to avoid
impacts to several homes on the southwest side of the project limits. Utilizing the minimum
required typical section and construction footprint has reduced impacts.
4. Federally Protected Species
Plants and animals with a federal classification of Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Proposed
Endangered (PE), and Proposed Threatened (PT) are protected under provisions of Section 7
and Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The USFWS lists 3 species
under federal protection for Robeson County as of January 29, 2007. These species are listed
in Table 3.

Table 3: Federally Protected Species in Robeson County
Common Name Scient~c Name Federal Status
American Alli ator Alli ator mississi iensis T S/A
Red-cockaded wood ecker Picoides borealis E
Michaux's sumac Rhus michauxii E
Notes: E Endangered-A species that is threatened with extinction throughout all or a
significant portion of its range.
T Threatened-A species that is likely to become an endangered species within the
foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range.
T(S/A) Similarity of Appearance-A species that is listed as threatened due to similarity of
appearance with other raze species.
Alligator mississippiensis (American alligator) Threatened (Similarity of Appearance)
Family: Alligatoridae
Federally Listed: 1967
Biological Conclusion:
No Survey Required
The federal listing for the alligator is due to "Similarity of Appearance" and does not afford it
any special protection. However, no habitat is present within the project study area.
Picoides borealis (Red-cockaded woodpecker) Endangered
Vertebrate Family: Picidae
Federally Listed: 1970
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
A search of the NHP files found no occurrences of the red-cockaded woodpecker in the
project vicinity. In addition, suitable nesting or foraging habitat does not exist within the area
to be impacted by the project. The Early Succession Pine Forest Community did not consist
of trees at the appropriate age and the Mixed Pine Hardwood Community was composed of
less than 50 percent pine species. Therefore, it can be concluded that the project will not
impact this species.
Rhus michauxii (Michaux's sumac) Endangered
Plant Family: Cashew (Anacardiaceae)
Federally Listed: September 28, 1989
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac exists in the project area in form of sandy open woods
and roadsides. However, no individuals of this species were observed on the day of the site
visit or on a follow-up visit on June 23, 2006. A search of the NHP database found no

occurrences of Michaux's sumac in the project vicinity and during the plant-by-plant surveys
no specimens were observed. It can be concluded that the project will not impact this species.
VI. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT
A. Cultural Resource Impacts
This project is subject to compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act of 1966, as amended, and implemented by the Advisory Council on Historic
Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106, codified at Title 36 CFR Part
800. Section 106 requires Federal agencies to take into account the effect of their undertakings
(federally funded, licensed, or permitted) on properties included in or eligible for inclusion in
the National Register of Historic Places and to afford the Advisory Council a reasonable
opportunity to comment on such undertakings.
1. Historic Architecture
The State Historic Preservation Office (HPO) reviewed the subject project and stated that they
are not aware of any historic resources that would be affected by the project (see letter dated
06/15/05 in Appendix A).
2. Archaeology
The State Historic Preservation Office (HPO) reviewed the subject project. There are no
known archaeological sites within the proposed project area, and no archaeological
investigation needed to be conducted (see letter dated 11/03/06 in Appendix A).
B. Community Impacts
No adverse impact on families or communities is anticipated. Right-of--Way acquisition will
be limited. No relocatees are expected with implementation of the proposed alternative.
The project is not expected to adversely affect social, economic, or religious opportunities in
the area. The Robeson County Public Schools Transportation Director stated that closure of
the intersection would affect 16 bus trips per day, and prefers construction to occur in the
summer.
The primary impact to services in the area will be to the Smyrna Volunteer Fire Department
and Robeson County EMS. This emergency response team uses the existing intersection of
SR 2210 (Kingsdale Road) to access US 74. They will be impacted because emergency
response time will increase in some cases by a longer detour route. At the' informational
workshop, NCDOT met with representatives of the fire department/ EMS. While the group
was not pleased about the required change to the access, they understood the benefit of the
project because of the history of fatalities. They preferred the construction of a fully
functioning interchange.

C. Noise & Air Quality Impacts
This project is an air quality "neutral" project in accordance with 40 CFR 93.126. It is not
required to be included in the regional emissions analysis and project level CO or PM 2.5
analysis aze not required. This project will not result in any meaningful changes in traffic
volumes, vehicle mix, location of existing facility, or any other factor that would cause an
increase in emissions impacts relative to the no-build alternative. Therefore, FHWA has
determined that this project will generate minimal air quality impacts for Clean Air Act
criteria pollutants and has not been linked with any special mobile source air toxins (MSATs)
concerns. Consequently, this effort is exempt from analysis for MSATs. Any burning of
vegetation shall be performed in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations of the
North Carolina State Implementation Plan (SIP) for air quality in compliance with 15 NCAC
2D.0520. Noise levels may increase during construction; however, these impacts are not
expected to be substantial considering the relatively short-term nature of construction noise
and the limitation of construction daytime hours. Noise transmission loss provided by the
building structure should be sufficient to moderate any intrusive traffic noise. Therefore, the
project's impact on noise and air quality will not be significant. This evaluation completes the
assessment requirements for highway traffic noise of Title 23, Code of Federal Regulation
(CFR), Part 772 and for air quality (1990 Clean Air Act Amendments and the National
Environmental Policy Act) and no additional reports are required.
D. Section 4(F) Resource Impacts
There are no Section 4(F) properties impacted by this project.
VII. GENERAL ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
The project is considered to be a Federal "Categorical Exclusion" due to its limited scope and
lack of substantial environmental consequences.
The project is expected to have an overall positive impact. Constructing a bridge on SR 2210
(Kingsdale Road) at the intersection of US 74 will result in safer traffic operations and will
help to upgrade US 74 to interstate standards.
The project will not have an adverse effect on the quality of the human or natural environment
with the use of the current North Carolina Department of Transportation standards and
specifications.
The proposed project will not require right-of--way acquisition or easement from any land
protected under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966.
An examination of records at the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources, Division of Environmental Management, Groundwater Section and the North
Carolina Department of Human Resources, Solid Waste Management Section revealed no
underground storage tanks or hazardous waste sites in the project area.

VIII. AGENCY COORDINATION
NCDOT has sought input from the following agencies as a part of the project development.
Written comments were received and considered from agencies noted with an asterisk (*)
during the preparation of this environmental study. This correspondence is included in the
Appendix.
• U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
• U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
• U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
• NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)
• NC DENR Division of Water Quality
• *North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
• *North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office
• *Robeson County Schools Transportation Director
IX. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT
A Citizen's Informational Workshop was held on December 8th, 2005. Citizens were
encouraged to express concerns regarding the proposed improvements. Twelve citizens
attended the workshop. Feedback about the project from the citizens was positive. However,
some individuals felt the project should be a full interchange, not just grade separated.
X. CONCLUSION
On the basis of the above discussion, it is concluded that no substantial adverse environmental
impacts will result from implementation of the project. The project is therefore considered to
be a federal "Categorical Exclusion" due to its limited scope and lack of substantial
environmental consequences.

SUBJECT: .Design Change Notification: Conversion of an At-grade Intersection to Grade Separation for
SR 2210 (Old I{ingsdale Road) at US 74, W-4704, Robeson Count~~, ER 05-0718
Thank you for your letter of October 2, 2006, concerning the above project.
We have reviewed the design change .for the grade separation cited above and concur with your
recommendation that no additional archaeological investigation is warranted as a result of the slight increase in
the area of potential effect (APE). It is our opinion that the project as currently proposed will have no effect
upon archaeological sites.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 10G of the National Historic Preservation Act and the
Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR

DATE: May 6, 2005
SUBJECT: Response to the start of study notification from the N. C. Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) regarding fish and wildlife concerns for the
proposed conversion of an At-grade Intesection on US 74 to Grade
Separation in Robeson County, North Carolina. TIP No. W-4704
This memorandum responds to a request from Greg Thorpe of the NCDOT for
our concerns regarding impacts on fish and wildlife resources resulting from the subject
project. Biologists on the staff of the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC)
have reviewed the proposed improvements. Our comments are provided in accordance
with certain provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(c))
and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-
667d).
We leave no specific concerns regarding this project. However; 'o help facilitate
ducuuien~ preparaiiun and tine review process, our general mfoi-mationat needs are
outlined below:
Description of fishery and wildlife resources within the project area,
including a listing of federally or state designated threatened, endangered,
or special concern species. Potential borrow areas to be used for protect
construction should be included in the inventories. A listing of designated
plant species tail be developed through consultation with:

2. Description of any streams or wetlands affected by the project. The need for
channelizing or relocating portions of streams crossed and the extent of
such activities.
3. Cover type maps showing wetland acreages impacted by the project.
Wetland acreages should include all project-related areas that may
undergo hydrologic change as a result of ditching, other drainage, or
filling for project construction. Wetland identification may be
accomplished through coordination with the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers (COE). If the COE is not consulted, the person delineating
wetlands should be identified and criteria listed.
4. Cover type maps showing acreages of upland wildlife habitat impacted by
the proposed project. Potential borrow sites should be included.
5. The extent to which the project will result in loss, degradation, or
fragmentation of wildlife habitat (wetlands or uplands).
6. Mitigation for avoiding, minimizing or compensating for direct and indirect
degradation in habitat quality as well as quantitative losses.
7. A cumulative impact assessment section which analyzes the environmental
effects of highway construction and quantifies the contribution of this
individual project to environmental degradation.
8. A discussion of the probable impacts on natural resources which will result
from secondary development facilitated by the improved road access.
9. If construction of this facility is to be coordinated with other state, municipal,
or private development projects, a description of these projects should be
included in the environmental document, and all project sponsors should
be identified.
Tha~Ik you for the opportunity to provide input in the early planning stages for
this project. If we can further assist your office, please contact me at [phone].
