PROJECT NARRATIVE
PNG Line 150 Project
Piedmont Natural Gas (PNG) proposes to install a new ten -inch diameter natural gas
pipeline to be located in Brunswick and New Hanover Counties, North Carolina. The
new pipeline will originate approximately 1.4 miles southwest of Clarendon Road and
approximately 0.5 mile north of Town Creek (34.1586°N, 78.0356°W) adjacent to the
west of the U.S. Army railroad easement and south of the Brunswick Forest development
in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The pipeline continues generally east before
crossing the Cape Fear River to its terminus northeast of River Road in New Hanover
County, North Carolina (34.1527°N, 77.9403°W).
The purpose of the project is to provide natural gas transmission to southern New
Hanover County. This area is currently served by an existing eight -inch transmission line
that is leased from Exxon with the lease set to expire in June 2013. The project will cross
two Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) —jurisdictional waters, Little Mallory Creek
and the Cape Fear River. Portions of the forested area contain jurisdictional wetlands,
and coastal wetlands are present within the floodplain of the Cape Fear River only. The
project will not result in a loss of Waters of the US, but will affect approximately 4.21
acres of wetlands. Of those impacts, 2.42 acres will involve conversion of forested
wetlands to herbaceous wetlands, while the remainder will consist only of temporary
disturbance. There will be no impacts to Little Mallory Creek or the Cape Fear River, as
the pipeline will be installed beneath the waterways via horizontal directional drill
(HDD).
The project as proposed requires authorization from the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) under Nationwide 12 (utility line activities), written concurrence from the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) under Water Quality Certification
(WQC) No. 3819, as well as a General Permit from the North Carolina Division of
Coastal Management (NCDCM) for Subaqueous Utility Crossings.
To minimize impacts and disturbance to jurisdictional Waters of the US, PNG plans to
limit the width of the proposed ROW. The work will be conducted within a 40-foot
ROW, 10 feet of which will consist of temporary work space (TWS), with the remaining
30 feet consisting of a permanently -maintained easement. This is the minimum width
required to support: 1) leakage surveys from ground mobile units or aerial technology;
2) aerial patrolling for possible encroachment activity near the pipeline; 3) accurate
identification of possible repairs and maintenance; 4) promotion of damage prevention in
that the ROW can be more easily identified by the public; 5) minimization of potential
canopy encroachment, which creates visibility concerns; and 6) minimum turnaround
Construction will first involve identification of the clearing limits, followed by removal
of above -ground woody vegetation from the proposed ROW and TWS either by
mechanical means or hand -clearing, as appropriate. Efforts will be made to remove trees
in a manner that minimizes disturbance of the forest floor, and prevents exposure of soil.
No grubbing or below -ground vegetation removal will occur within wetlands or along
stream banks outside of the temporary crossing footprints. Select portions of the ROW
and TWS may require rough grading to facilitate safe passage of equipment, and to
prepare a suitably -level work surface. Appropriate sediment and erosion control
measures will be installed following initial soil disturbance as the project progresses.
Within the wetland area, timber mats will be employed for equipment to work and travel
on.
In general, the pipe will be trucked to the site from a temporary storage yard, strung along
the ROW, and placed on skids (wooden pedestals). Specialized machines will be used to
bend individual segments of pipe to fit the contours of the trench where necessary. The
pipe segments will be welded together, x-rayed and inspected for structural integrity, and
then lowered into the trench. In areas where segregation of the subsoil and topsoil is
required (wetlands), the topsoil will be replaced last. Affected areas will then be
"cleaned up" by rough -grading and temporary seeding (if necessary), followed by final
grading, permanent seeding, and mulching to restore the ROW as closely as possible to
pre -disturbance contours and conditions.
Areas within wetlands which are disturbed will be seeded with a customized wetland
seed mix. Areas outside of the permanently -maintained ROW will be allowed to re -
vegetate naturally.
