The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace five bridges on NC304 in Pamlico County (Figure 1). Please accept this letter as a request for a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) General Permit for the above referenced projects. NCDOT plans to replace these bridges using staged construction and roadway approach work will be kept to a minimum so that one lane of traffic can be maintained on site during construction. The five bridges are being replaced because they have been deemed structurally deficient. The new bridges will be built to match existing alignments and parameters on current locations. Each of the existing bridges has a superstructure composed of a reinforced concrete deck on timber joists. End bents and interior bents are timber caps on timber piles. The existing bridges will be removed in accordance with the NCDOT Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and Removal (BMP-BDR). The timber and steel components will be removed without dropping any components into Waters of the U.S. MAILING ADDRESS: 113 AIRPORT DRIVE SUITE 100 EDENTON, NO 27932 TELEPHONE: 252-482-7977 FAX: 252-482-8722 WEBSITE: WWW.DOH.DOT.STATE.NC.US LOCATION: 113 Airport Drive Suite 100. Edenton, NO 27932 Page 2 March 6, 2009 The recommended replacement structure for each bridge is a concrete cored slab deck with a clear roadway width of 33 feet. Table 1 shows the existing bridge length and the proposed bridge length for the five bridge replacements. Table 1. Existing and Proposed Bridge Lengths Bridge Site Existing Bridge Length Proposed Bridge Length B-5129B, Bridge No. 31 over Vandemere Creek 87 feet 120 feet B-5129C, Bridge No. 35 over Little Vandemere Creek 52 feet 7 inches 85 feet 13-51291), Bridge No. 40 over Bear Creek 52 feet 3 inches 90 feet B-5129E, Bridge No. 42 over Gale Creek 101 feet 6 inches 120 feet B-4594, Bridge No. 44 over UT to Jones Bay 52 feet 80 feet The approach roadway will hold the existing horizontal alignment and roadway width. It will also be at approximately the same elevation as the existing roadway. Deck and roadway drainage will be maintained at approximately the same slopes as the existing structure and roadway approaches. No deck drains are included in the project. The bridges are all located within the Neuse River Basin and US Geological Survey hydrologic unit 03020105. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) has designated a best usage classification for each stream and its unnamed tributaries (UT) as shown in Table 2. Table 2. NCDWQ Index Number and Best Usage Classification Stream Name DWQ Index Number Best Usage Classification Vandemere Creek 27-150-15 SC Sw — NSW Little Vandemere Creek 27-150-15-1 SC Sw — NSW HQW Bear Creek 27-150-28 SA HQW - NSW Gale Creek 27-150-31 SA HQW - NSW UT to Jones Bay 27-152 SA HQW - NSW There are currently no outstanding resource waters (ORW) or drinking water supply waters (WS-I and WS-II) within a one mile radius of the project study area. The 2008 Draft 303(d) list (dated January 10, 2008) or the 2006 Final 303(d) list (dated June 19, 2007) indicates impaired waters located within one mile upstream or downstream of Vandemere Creek, Bear Creek, and Gale Creek are due to fecal coliform contamination. Jurisdictional wetlands are located immediately adjacent to the existing bridges. Avoidance and minimization measures have been incorporated to the extent possible; however, impacts to jurisdictional resources will occur. Permanent impacts to coastal wetlands include fill materials required for widening approach roadways at new end bent locations, which is necessary to conform to current design standards and to accommodate guardrail installation. Permanent surface water impacts include placement of interior bent bridge supports in the channel and rip - rap for fill slope stabilization at new end bent locations. Page 3 March 6, 2009 Existing relic wood pilings located in the water at the bridge locations will be pulled out of the channel because they pose a safety hazard. Sediment curtains will be used to ensure that sediment releases from this activity will be contained to the immediate location of the pile removal operation. Construction equipment will be operated from the existing road surface and/or upland areas and will not enter wetland areas. As of January 31, 2008, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) list of protected species includes six federally protected species for Pamlico County (Table 3). Table 3. Federally protected species listed for Pamlico County.

According to NCNHP Virtual Workroom records, updated on September 23, 2008, shortnose sturgeon has been observed in waters of the Neuse River and Pamlico Sound south of Pamlico County. Shortnose sturgeon is a mobile species that is expected to relocate to avoid construction activities; therefore, project construction may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect, this species. There are no viable options for use of an off -site detour and existing traffic must be maintained on one lane during bridge construction. NCDOT requests relief from moratoriums on in -water work to allow completion of this project concurrent with the four adjacent bridge sites along NC 304. Work can be completed in one construction season which will cause minimal disruption to public school bus traffic. Page 4 March 6, 2009 Please find attached a copy of the U.S. Coast Guard letter dated February 19, 2009 granting advance permit approval for these bridge replacements. The following information is provided for each of the bridge replacement projects: CAMA permit forms MP-1, MP-2, and MP-5; U.S. Postal Service Return Receipt certification cards from adjacent landowner notification packages; Pre -Construction Notification Form; permit drawings; and Figures 1 and 2 which identify the project sites. We are requesting that the proposed work be authorized under a CAMA General Permit. By copy of this letter we are also requesting issuance of a US Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit 14 and the corresponding 401 General Certification 3704. In compliance with Condition 1 of this certification we request written concurrence from the NC Division of Water Quality.

PO Box 33127 Raleigh, NC 27636 Dear Ms. Carr: I apologize for our late response to your letter of November 6, 2008, requesting for Advance Permit Approval for the following North Carolina Department of Transportation Bridge Replacement Projects in Pamlico County, NC: 1) B-5129B, Bridge No. 31 over Vandemere Creek; 2) B-5129C, Bridge No. 35 over Little Vandemere Creek; 3) B-51291), Bridge No. 40 over Bear Creek; 4) B-5129E, Bridge No. 42 over Gale Creek; and 5) B-4594, Bridge No. 44 over Jones Bay Our examination and historical data indicate that there is sufficient factual support for concluding that these waterways are navigable waters of the United States. However, the waterways also meet the criteria for advanced approval waterways outlined in Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 115.70. Advance approval waterways are those that are navigable in law, but not actually navigated by other than small boats. The Commandant of the Coast Guard has given his advance approval to the construction and rehabilitation of bridges across such waterways. Therefore, a Coast Guard Bridge permit will not be required for these proposed bridge replacement projects. These projects will be placed in our Advance Approval category for the locations and replacement of the Abovementioned Bridge projects and is valid for five years from the date of this letter. If the construction does not commence within this time period, you must contact this office for reaffirmation of this authorization. Future bridge projects along the same waterways will have to be independently evaluated before they may be considered for Advance Approval. The fact that a Coast Guard bridge permit is not required does not relieve you of the responsibility for compliance with the requirements of any other Federal, State, or local agency who may have jurisdiction over any aspect of these projects. Although these projects will not require a bridge permit, other areas of Coast Guard jurisdiction apply. The following must be met: From: 7573986334 Page: 313� Date: 2/1912009 3:46:20 PM 16591 19 FEB 09 a. The lowest portion of the superstructure of the bridge across the waterway should clear the 100-year flood height elevation, if feasible. b. The National Ocean Service (NOS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is responsible for maintaining the charts of U.S. waters; therefore they must be notified of these proposed bridge projects. You must notify our office and the NOS upon completion of the activities approved in this letter. Your notification of completion must include as -built drawings, which certifies the location and clearances of the each bridge that was constructed. This information will be sent to the following address: Ken Forster National Ocean Service (NOS) N/CS26, Room 7317 1315 East-West Highway Silver Spring, MD 20910-3282 Please contact me at the above address or telephone number for any further assistance.

Ross Jr., Secretary MEMORANDUM TO: John Rouse THROUGH: Anne Deaton FROM: Sean McKenna DATE: December 23, 2008 SUBJECT: Request for comments on NCDOT Pamlico County Bridge Replacement Projects. The following comments by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (NCDMF) on the replacement of the subject bridges are offered pursuant to G.S. 113-131. Bridge numbers 35 (Little Vandemere Creek), 40 (Bear Creek), 42 (Gale Creek), and 44 (UT to Jones Bay) cross Primary Nursery areas, and the NCDMF requests that NCDOT impose an in - water work moratorium from April 1 through September 30. Additionally, the NCDMF requests that the replacement bridges span high ground to high ground; deck drains should not discharge directly into the stream; uncured concrete should not contact the water in or entering the stream; and that the NCDOT utilize sedimentation and erosion control measures to protect aquatic resources. While Vandemere Creek (bridge No.31) is not a Primary Nursery area, there are numerous Primary Nursery Areas located downstream of this site. All care must be taken to protect these critical habitat areas. The NCDMF requests that NCDOT take a risk adverse approach to this project and impose an in -water moratorium from April 1 through September 30, and follow the other aforementioned guidelines. 3441 Arendell Street, P.O.

Sean Travis Wilson wrote: Sean, has DMF commented on the projects below? Hi Travis, 0 Justin Homan looked at these crossings yesterday. All of these streams appear to be very productive biologically. Vandemere Creek (B-5129A Bridge No. 31) is the only low -salinity 1 stream (salinity = 1.3 ppt) and this bridge crossing is a boundary between inland and coastal waters, so downstream impacts would affect waters under jurisdiction by Division of Marine Fisheries. With the exception of Vandemere Creek, the rest of the bridges cross very saline waters and downstream impacts would affect coastal fishing waters (all of which are designated as PNA's by DMF)............ 0 -----Original Message ----- From: Travis Wilson[ma iIto: travis.wilson@ncwildlife.org] Sent: Monday, December 01, 2008 4:17 PM To: Barwick, Bob Subject: bridge replacements Comments?

Lane, Stephen From: Lane, Stephen Sent: Friday, May 01, 2009 4:53 PM • To: 'Johnson, Jay B' Cc: 'Sutton, Michael W' Subject: B-5129(Replacement of five bridges on Hwy 304 in Pamlico County) Hi Jay, DCM received the general permit applications for TIP Project B-5129(A-E) on April 27, 2009. Review of the applications indicate that 3 of the 5 bridges do not qualify for the general permit. As you are aware, the general permit allows a maximum of 500 square feet of wetland impacts. Bridges 31, 42, and 44 exceed that amount and will have to be processed under a major permit application as they are currently proposed. Additionally, there are minor corrections needed to the drawings and MP-5 forms for Bridge 35 and Bridge 40. To obtain general permits for the projects the following items need to be addressed: Bridge 31 1 Reduce wetland impacts to under 500 sq. ft. 2 Revise MP-5 Section 3 items (e),(f),(g) Bridge 35 1 Correctly show extent of causeway removal areas 2 Revise MP-5 Section 3 items (e),(f),(g) Bridge 40 1 Correctly show extent of causeway removal areas in cross section and plan view 2 Correctly show marsh and stream in area of existing dock 3 Revise MP-5 Section 3 items (e),(f),(g) Bridge 42 1 Reduce wetland impacts to under 500 sq. ft. 2 Correctly show marsh and stream in area of wetland impact area W-1. 3 Revise MP-5 Section 3 items (e),(f),(g) Bridge 44 1 Reduce wetland impacts to under 500 sq. ft. 2 Correctly show extent of causeway removal areas in cross section 3 Revise MP-5 Section 3 items (e),(f),(g) Some of the information listed above can possibly be corrected over the phone, however, the biggest obstacle is the wetland impacts being over 500 square feet. I have visited the sites and have tried to figure out how to help you fit the projects under the general permit process. I have some possible recommendations that may help in this regard. Please call me when you get a chance so we can discuss this further.
