In the northeast corner of Onslow 226, a wooden bulkhead from private property ties back into the NCDOT road fill. The existing permitted scenario would apparently have the proposed cut line for the floodplain going through or at the edge of the subject wooden bulkhead tie in area leaving a steep drop between the proposed cut area and what would then be a higher elevation area to the immediate north of the floodplain and east of the bulkhead tie in wall. This currently permitted proposal would likely result in compromising the bulkhead and/or the earth presently being supported by the bulkhead. It seems that erosion would be apt to occur in this area over time considering the steep slope that would remain even if vegetation and matting were attempted. This likely would result in sediment accumulation in the nearby marsh and creek area. Therefore, NCDOT proposes a better scenario. While a portion of the original proposed floodplain area will still be cut out, the proposed rip rap bridge abutment protection would be extended to tie into existing rip rap currently protecting the bulkhead tie in wall section. This should result in preserving the integrity of this bulkhead tie in wall and help create a stable situation as opposed to the perhaps likely erosive scenario described in the preceding paragraph. I had previously thought that this proposed solution may result in more floodplain area as I thought that we may actually be removing some of the existing rip rap. However, further data gathering, drawing up the scenario, and better thinking this through shows that we need to preserve the existing rip rap and tie in our proposed rip rap abutment protection to the existing rip rap to create a more stable situation than is currently permitted. Please keep in mind that there will be no additional jurisdictional impacts as a result of this proposal. Please keep in mind that we are attempting to create a more stable situation. Please also keep in mind that the total "loss" of what would otherwise be created floodplain area is approximately 30 square feet; this 30 square feet may very well have been lost to sedimentation over time any way if we do not create the more stable situation proposed. Also, NCDOT did not formally propose coastal wetland restoration on this east side of Wheeler Creek, however, we are planning to take steps as we have discussed in the field to match adjacent marsh elevations with our floodplain cut and also to plant some marsh grass sprigs on this east side of the creek as well. Please approve this proposed field adjustment as described in the second paragraph above and justified throughout. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. I am supplying a drawing and photo(s) to support this request. This project is permitted as follows: USACE Action ID 2009 1811, NCDCM General Permit # 58384C (.2300), and NCDWQ Water Quality Cert. 3883.

CONTI, JR. SECRETARY r' PXCEIVEI:D JUN 0 4 2012 DCAI.Nl" CITY' The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is requesting issuance of CAMA General Permit .2300 to replace Onslow County Bridge #226 on SR 1557 Wheeler Creek Road. The proposal is to replace the existing 53 feet long by 25 feet wide bridge with a 100 feet long by 30 feet wide bridge. The existing navigable vertical clearance would be maintained and slightly improved while the horizontal navigable clearance would be significantly improved. The proposed bridge replacement project would require the installation of guardrails, stormwater controls, raising the elevation of the roadbed and the relocation of an existing underground telephone line in highground inside the ROW. Please find enclosed the following: 1) CAMA Permit application forms MP -1 and MP -5 2) Adjacent riparian property owner listed on MP -1 form, copy of letter(s) that were sent 3) Certified mail receipts from the mailings to the adjacent riparian property owners 4) Three maps including a lidar map, an aerial photo map, and a USGS map 5) Attachment G detailing many aspects and environmental considerations for this project 6) Wetland Impact Summary Table 7) Plan set with 10 sheets prepared by HNTB North Carolina containing vicinity map, legend, plan sheets, and cross-sections of creek at specified stations 8) Bridge Survey Report 9) Memorandum dated July 8, 2011 from Mr. Travis Wilson of the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission to Ms. Amanda Glynn, P.E. NCDOT Bridge Manager in regard to recommendations for, amongst others, Onslow County Bridge #226 project BD -5103P. Please see page 3 near the bottom of the page for Mr. Wilson's specific comments regarding Onslow County Bridge #226 project BD -5103P 10) Email correspondence with Ms. Jessi Baker with North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries dated 05-27-2012 concerning moratorium requirements for this project. 5501 BARBADOS BLVD.

NCDOT Environmental Engineer. 13) NCDOT Cultural Resources Staff Architectural and Archaeological clearance documents for this project. Email correspondence between Shane Petersen (NCDOT) and myself concerning additional review by Cultural Resources for work areas located outside existing NCDOT ROW. Mr. Petersen stated that the original "no survey required" will still stand. 14) Concurrence from the US Department of Transportation that no Coast Guard permit is required for this project. The water body at the location of Onslow County Bridge #226 is Wheeler Creek and is classified as SA HQW. Wheeler Creek is classified as Primary Nursery Area. Wheeler Creek is not classified as Anadromous Fish Spawning Area at this location. Attachment G states that this location is classified for Sturgeons and references the moratorium for sturgeon; this is on the Attachment G because during our initial scoping efforts it was suspected and therefore noted that a sturgeon moratorium may be required. After speaking with Mr. Fritz Rohde with NMFS on 05-17-2012 it has been determined that this project is not located in an area that supports Sturgeon and as such does not require any moratorium related to sturgeon. In regard to the note on the Attachment G about the Threatened and Endangered Species being present, this note was originally made in regard to Sturgeon. Referencing the phone conversation with Mr. Rohde, a biological conclusion of No Effect is determined in regard to Sturgeon. Also, all other listed species for Onslow County have now been considered and a biological conclusion of No Effect has been determined for all. There are some minor wetland delineation discrepancies between the ESI package provided by Mr. Robert Turnbull and the plan set provided by HNTB. These discrepancies are located in the SW quadrant and the NW quadrant on the project area. ESI had performed a delineation prior to the onsite scoping meeting with the resource agencies. During that meeting it was determined that the coastal wetland (CW) line in the SW quadrant should be a joint line from the waterline to a point approximately 80' west where the 404 line and the CW line would split as noted on plan sheets. Additionally, there were no 404 wetlands delineated by ESI in the NW quadrant of the project site. After further review by Mr. Stonewall Mathis (NCDOT), it was determined that there were 404 wetlands located between the waterline and the permanent drainage easement (PDE) as shown on plan sheets. Please note that the plan sheets would stand as the actual wetland delineation. The excavation described in Item 3.a. of the MP -5 form is landward of the existing eastern abutment. This excavation is proposed in order to make a smooth tie in of the existing channel with the proposed excavation due to the increased bridge length. The proposed bridge replacement will have no stream impacts. The proposed work will require the filling of approximately 180 sq.ft. of coastal wetlands. In order to gain access to the work area, NCDOT will need to hand clear the vegetation (not disturbing the root mat) of approximately 530 sq.ft. of coastal wetland vegetation and approximately 19 sq. ft. of 404 wetland vegetation. Additionally, NCDOT is proposing to restore approximately 537 sq.ft. of coastal wetlands once the project is completed. The restoration area will be located on the north and south Onslow County Bridge #226 CAMA Permit Application Cover Letter May 31, 2012 Page 13 side of the western abutment. Planned grade for the restoration area will match the adjacent coastal wetlands areas and will be planted with similar plant species. The grading work for the restoration will be completed during the construction schedule. Depending on the completion date of the project the planting may be delayed due to seasonal planting requirements of the plant species to be planted. NCDOT requests that this restoration be considered as complete mitigation for the impacts associated with this project. Additionally, NCDOT by copy of this package is making application to the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for a Nationwide Permit #3 and North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for corresponding Water Quality Certification #3883; please also find enclosed a copy of the cover letter to the USACE and NCDWQ in this regard. NCDOT acknowledges that $400.00 will be debited against the WBS element provided above for processing this CAMA General Permit .2300 application.

Glynn, P.E. Division Bridge Program Manager, NCDOT FROM: Travis Wilson, Highway Project Coordinator Habitat Conservation Program DATE: July 8, 2011 SUBJECT: Division 3 Bridge Replacements Biologists with the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the information provided and have the following preliminary comments on the subject project. Our comments are provided in accordance with 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). Our standard recommendations for bridge replacement projects of this scope are as follows: 1. We generally prefer spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not require work within the stream and do not require stream channel realignment. The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges allows for human and wildlife passage beneath the structure, does not block fish passage, and does not block navigation by canoeists and boaters. 2. Bridge deck drains should not discharge directly into the stream. 3. Live concrete should not be allowed to contact the water in or entering into the stream. 4. If possible, bridge supports (bents) should not be placed in the stream. 5. If temporary access roads or detours are constructed, they should be removed back to original ground elevations immediately upon the completion of the project. Disturbed areas should be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and native tree species should be planted with a spacing of not more than 10'x10'. If possible, when using temporary Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries • 1721 Mail Service Center • Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 707-0220 • Fax: (919) 707-0028 Bridge Memo Page 2 July 8, 2011 structures the area should be cleared but not grubbed. Clearing the area with chain saws, mowers, bush -hogs, or other mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact, allows the area to revegetate naturally and minimizes disturbed soil. 6. A clear bank (riprap free) area of at least 10 feet should remain on each side of the steam underneath the bridge. 7. In trout waters, the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission reviews all U.S. Army Corps of Engineers nationwide and general `404' permits. We have the option of requesting additional measures to protect trout and trout habitat and we can recommend that the project require an individual `404' permit. 8. In streams that contain threatened or endangered species, NCDOT biologist Mr. Logan Williams should be notified. Special measures to protect these sensitive species may be required. NCDOT should also contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for information on requirements of the Endangered Species Act as it relates to the project. 9. In streams that are used by anadromous fish, the NCDOT official policy entitled "Stream Crossing Guidelines for Anadromous Fish Passage (May 12, 1997)" should be followed. 10. Sedimentation and erosion control measures sufficient to protect aquatic resources must be implemented prior to any ground disturbing activities. Structures should be maintained regularly, especially following rainfall events. 11. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. 12. All work in or adjacent to stream waters should be conducted in a dry work area. Sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams, or other diversion structures should be used where possible to prevent excavation in flowing water. 13. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams. 14. Only clean, sediment -free rock should be used as temporary fill (causeways), and should be removed without excessive disturbance of the natural stream bottom when construction is completed. 15. During subsurface investigations, equipment should be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. If corrugated metal pipe arches, reinforced concrete pipes, or concrete box culverts are used: The culvert must be designed to allow for aquatic life and fish passage. Generally, the culvert or pipe invert should be buried at least 1 foot below the natural streambed (measured from the natural thalweg depth). If multiple barrels are required, barrels other than the base flow barrel(s) should be placed on or near stream bankfull or floodplain bench elevation (similar to Lyonsfield design). These should be Bridge Memo Page 3 July 8, 2011 reconnected to floodplain benches as appropriate. This may be accomplished by utilizing sills on the upstream and downstream ends to restrict or divert flow to the base flow barrel(s). Silled barrels should be filled with sediment so as not to cause noxious or mosquito breeding conditions. Sufficient water depth should be provided in the base flow barrel(s) during low flows to accommodate fish movement. If culverts are longer than 40-50 linear feet, alternating or notched baffles should be installed in a manner that mimics existing stream pattern. This should enhance aquatic life passage: 1) by depositing sediments in the barrel, 2) by maintaining channel depth and flow regimes, and 3) by providing resting places for fish and other aquatic organisms. In essence, base flow barrel(s) should provide a continuum of water depth and channel width without substantial modifications of velocity. 2. If multiple pipes or cells are used, at least one pipe or box should be designed to remain dry during normal flows to allow for wildlife passage. 3. Culverts or pipes should be situated along the existing channel alignment whenever possible to avoid channel realignment. Widening the stream channel must be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage. 4. Riprap should not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be professionally designed, sized, and installed. In most cases, we prefer the replacement of the existing structure at the same location with road closure. If road closure is not feasible, a temporary detour should be designed and located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing stream banks. If the structure will be on a new alignment, the old structure should be removed and the approach fills removed from the 100 -year floodplain. Approach fills should be removed down to the natural ground elevation. The area should be stabilized with grass and planted with native tree species. If the area reclaimed was previously wetlands, NCDOT should restore the area to wetlands. If successful, the site may be utilized as mitigation for the subject project or other projects in the watershed.

BD -5103P - Onsloxv 226 Environmental Services, Inc., (ESI) has completed the jurisdictional wetland and surface water delineation for Onslow County Bridge #226. The project study area is located on Wheeler Creek Road (SR 1557) over Wheeler Creek. One (1) Section 404 jurisdictional wetland, three (3) coastal wetlands, and one (1) jurisdictional stream channel (Wheeler Creek) were flagged per U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE), N.0 Division of Coastal Management (DCM), and N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) criteria. All of the jurisdictional wetlands are abutting Wheeler Creek. One (1) potentially jurisdictional tributary, a man-made ditch with an ordinary high water mark, was also flagged and flows into Wheeler Creek. Normal high water elevation was marked with an orange flag near flag SA2. The attached jurisdictional layout depicts the approximate location of the jurisdictional features. It is our understanding that these features will be located via traditional survey. The attached layout is intended to be used by your surveyor to aid in locating the wetland and stream flagging.

TN NN' identify TNW: Summarize rationale supporting determination: 2. Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND iTS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY): This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Ropanes have been met. The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent waters" (RPVI's), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3 months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round (perennial) flow, skip to Section IiI.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow, skip to Section III.D.4. A ii etland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPV4* requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents lite existence of a significant nexus bet" cell a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water; even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law. if the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RP`'i', a JD will require additional data'to determine if the wat.erbody has a significant nexus with a TN1i'. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines; for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section IIl.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below. 1.

SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATiON A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TN\V. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW. Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent "etlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a tributary and its adjacent Aetland or between a tributary and the TNAV). Similar])-, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus. Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNV4', as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example: • Does the tributary; in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), ha%e the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TN Ws, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? • Docs the tributary, in combination with its adjacent �retlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW?

Assign points to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of tite stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions. enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. \Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into srnaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must ranee between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality.

The bridge replacement is currently proposed within existing ROW. The total project length is estimated at 350 feet (106.68 meters) including 150 -foot approaches at each end of a new 100 -foot long structure. The APE is eery roughly estimated at .964 acres (39 hectares) based on an assumed 60 -foot ROW. Traffic flow will be maintained with an off-site detour during construction. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief de-raiption of rerienv actit ities, results of review, and conadusionr. A review of the maps and files archived at the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology was conducted on January 7, 2010. While no previously identified archaeological sites are recorded in the immediate vicinity of the proposed bridge replacement. No further archaeological investigations are recommended for the project as currently proposed. '11iis project should be considered to be compliant with Section 106 and NCGS 121- 12(a). Brief Explanation of why the availableirfornration pmtrides a reliable bcuisfor naronabfy predicting that their are no unidentfied historic properties in the APE: Despite a paucity of known archaeological resources in the immediate vicinity of the bridge replacement project, numerous archaeological resources abound along the coast in both terrestrial and marine settings along the New River and Stump Sound. An examination of the soil survey for Onslow County suggests that the majority of the proposed APF mill fall within disturbed Muckalee loam soils in the existing ROW; areas very unlikely to contain NRI IP -eligible archaeological sites. However, because of the potential in surrounding areas, further archaeological review will be required should the proposed project change or earth -disturbing activities (including temporary easements) extend outside existing ROW.

Based on this review, there were no existing NR, SL, LD, DE, or SS properties in the Area of Potential Effects. The CRS also accessed Onslow County GLS and tax records online that same day. Based on this information, there appeared to be properties within the APE that were built prior to 1960. A historic architecture site visit was recommended. During the site visit the CRS observed two properties over fifty years of age within the APE. Both properties are altered examples of small cottages that arc typical of those found throughout rural areas of the state and do not meet any of the criteria for National Register listing.

I really appreciate the follow-up and the detailed map is excellent! Based on the mapping and the information obtained from the original review, I think the original "no survey required" call can stand. The proposed actions outside existing ROW appear to still be within areas mapped as Muckalee loam. This soil type reflects conditions that are generally ill-suited to pre-Columbian and historic period occupations. Additionally, no previously identified archaeological resources have been recorded in these areas. The potential for NRHP-eligible archaeological resources is considered extremely low for those areas. I'm not going to submit a new "No Survey" form since the last recommendation will stand, but you might want to put a copy of this email in the file. Thanks again, and please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Shane C.

Let me introduce myself, my name is Jon Giles I will be working with Stoney and Annaliese. I look forward to working with you. This email is in reference to bridge replacement Onlsow 226, project tracking number (10-01-0007). The "No Survey Required Form" dated 08-10-11 states that further review would be required if work was to extend beyond existing ROW. After reviewing the submitted plans dated 04-27-12 1 noticed two areas located outside the existing ROW where work is proposed. One, on the NW side of the work area there is a Permanent Drainage Easement(PDE) planned that measures 15' x 15' with rip rap outlet protection. The PDE is located on the north side of the western approach near station 12+80. Second, there is approximately 180 sq.ft. of fill material to be placed on the south side of the western approach between stations 12+50 and 13+23. I have attached a pdf titled BDO4 034 see sheet no. 4 for your review. This shows the details and locations of the work areas outside the existing ROW. Please review the additional work and reply with your determination. Thank you in advance for timely response.
