Division of Coastal Management Elizabeth City District 1367 U.S. 17 South Elizabeth City,NC 27909 ATTN: Mr. Frank Jennings Dear Sir: SUBJECT: PERMIT MODIFICATION FOR THE PROPOSED ROANOKE ISLAND VISITOR INFORMATION CENTER AND REST AREA ADJACENT TO US 64- 264 BETWEEN THE CROATAN SOUND AND THE US 64/NC 345 INTERSECTION, DARE COUNTY, TIP NO. R-2551. U. S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS ACTION ID NO. 199502334. N.C. DIVISION OF COASTAL MANAGEMENT CAMA PERMIT NO. 7-98 N.C. DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY WQC PROJECT NO. 970856. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to construct a visitor information center and rest area on a 9.2 ac. parcel adjacent to US 64-264 between the Croatan Sound and the US 64/NC 345 intersection, Dare County. The scope of work for this project was documented as a Categorical Exclusion (CE) approved by the Federal Highway Administration [Federal Aid Project NHS 64 (27), State Project 8.1052501] on 8 August, 2000. On January 20, 1998, The N.C. Division of Coastal Management issued Permit No. 7-98, for improvements to US 64-264, including the construction of a new Croatan Sound Bridge, from west of Manns Harbor to NC 345 south of Manteo in Dare County [TIP No. R-2551, Federal Aid Project No. NHF-64 (6), State Project No. 8.T051401]. At the request of the resources agencies,NCDOT proposes to modify this permit as opposed to applying for a separate permit for impacts associated with the visitor information center and rest area.

This access, which is located south of the US 64-264 corridor is now owned by the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) has been closed and will not be used to provide access to the new section US 64-264 once construction is complete. A letter from WRC is included with this permit application. The access to the property on the northern side of the corridor is registered to Dare County. Terry Wheeler, Dare County Manager has informed NCDOT that the County is in the process of closing the access, however a definite date of closure is unavailable at this time. Written confirmation of this closure will be forwarded as soon as it becomes available. NCDOT is aware that the project will not be permitted unless this access is permanently closed. Environmental Impacts Jurisdictional Streams. An unnamed tributary to the Croatan Sound [DWQ Index No. 30- 20-(2), (8/1/90)], will be crossed by the driveway for the visitor center and rest area resulting in 145.5 linear ft of impacts. This is a perennial stream in the Pasquotank River Basin which carries a Best Usage Classification of SA which are salt waters suitable for commercial, shellfishing, and all other tidal saltwater uses by definition. No stream relocation or channel change will be involved. There will also be 0.01 acres of fill in surface waters Jurisdictional Wetlands. Project construction will result in 1.14 ac of permanent impacts to a portion of a estuarine fringe forest. Dominant vegetation present in this community include loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), red bay (Persea borbonia), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), red maple (Acer rubrum), greenbrier (Smilax sp.), and American holly (Ilex opaca). Impacts consist of 0.82 acres of fill, 0.18 ac of isolated wetlands, and 0.15 acres due to mechanized clearing. Permit drawings depicting this proposed work are attached. Threatened And Endangered Species. The following species are listed as threatened, endangered, or experimental for Dare County: A Biological Conclusion of No Effect has been reached for each of the following species. Final concurrence from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was issued for each of these species on February 20, 2001. • Red wolf(Canus rufus). Experimental. • Loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta). Threatened • Piping plover(Charadrius melodus). Threatened • Green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas). Threatened • Leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea). Endangered • American alligator(Alligator mississippiensis). Threatened (S/A) • Hawksbill sea turtle (Eretomochelys imbricata). Endangered • Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus). Threatened • Kemp's ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys kempii). Endangered • West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus). Endangered • Red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis). Endangered • Roseate tern (Sterna dougallii). Endangered • Seabeach amaranth(Amaranthus pumilus). Threatened Cultural Resources. No historic structures listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places are located within the project area. This determination was issued by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) on May 10, 2000. There is one known archaeological site, 31DR76, within the proposed project. The site was originally thought to have been eligible for the National Register. However, after additional evaluation, SHPO found the site to be not eligible. Mitigation Sequencing Avoidance. The NCDOT is committed to incorporating all practicable design features to avoid and minimize wetland impacts, and to provide full compensatory mitigation of the remaining wetland impacts. During the design of this project,NCDOT has investigated several alternatives for the location of the driveway entrance to the Visitor Center and Rest Area. The Categorical Exclusion (CE) describes in detail why the current location was selected; however, there have been some developments relating to this issue since the CE was signed. The Army Corps of Engineers, the N.C. Division of Water Quality, and the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commission all expressed their concern over the location of the driveway entrance and the associated impacts to wetlands and the unnamed tributary to the Croatan Sound. Based on these comments,NCDOT investigated moving the location of the driveway such that it would avoid impacting these resources. By moving the driveway entrance north of the proposed location, additional wetland impacts would occur. NCDOT's proposed location places the entrance in a location that minimizes impacts to the surrounding wetlands. Moving the driveway entrance south of its proposed location was also investigated; however, this alternative would compromise the safety of the traveling public along the US 64 Bypass as well as those exiting the Visitor Center. The minimum safe stopping/sight distance listed in the Roadway Design Manual is 917 feet. From the end of the bridge rail on the US 64 Bypass, which is the farthest point south for which cars exiting the Visitor Center can see, to the proposed driveway entrance, the sight distance is 967 feet. Therefore, the proposed entrance location is situated such that it is approximately 50 feet greater than the minimum design limit for safe stopping/sight distance as listed in the Roadway Design Manual. Moving the driveway entrance 50 feet to the south, the point of minimum design safe stopping/sight distance, would place the entrance directly on top of the unnamed tributary to the Croatan Sound and would; therefore, dramatically increase the amount of linear stream impacts associated with this project. Due to existing topography and design constraints it was determined that the driveway entrance location could not be moved without additional wetland and stream impacts or unacceptable compromises to driver safety. Avoidance measures were taken during the planning phases of the CE; minimization measures were incorporated as part of the project design. The avoidance measures will include: 1. Permanent closure of two existing access points along the portion of US 64-264 currently under construction. 2. No staging of construction equipment or storage of construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands or near surface waters. 3. All wetland areas not affected by the project will be protected from unnecessary encroachment. Minimization. Minimization includes the examination of appropriate and practicable steps to reduce the adverse impacts. Minimization techniques were implemented as follows: 1. Slopes: Fill slopes adjacent to the stream crossing are at a 2:1 ratio as opposed to the original designs of 3:1. 2. High quality water standards: Strict enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices (BMP) for the protection of surface waters and wetlands will be enforced. 3. Reduced impacts to surface waters: Impacts to surface waters were reduced to 145.5 linear ft compared to 600 linear ft for the original design. Mitigation—Jurisdictional Wetlands. The project will impact 1.14 ac. of jurisdictional wetlands. NCDOT proposes to offer 0.88 ac of onsite mitigation in the form of both restoration and creation (0.11 ac., 0.77 ac. respectively). The attached Onsite Mitigation Plan for the Roanoke Island Visitor Center/Rest Area provides detailed information pertaining to onsite mitigation, but the plan is summarized in the following paragraph. NCDOT also proposes to debit wetland mitigation sites for the remaining impacts, one of which is not in Dare County. NCDOT is aware of Dare County's Land Use Plan and justification for debiting a site outside of the county is explained later in this section. Wetland compensation for the Visitor Center/Rest Area will be accomplished by restoration, creation, and preservation (see Table 1). NCDOT plans to mitigate for 0.88 ac. of the total wetland impacts through on-site restoration of 0.11 ac. (1:1) and creation of 0.77 ac. (1:1) by removing fill from portions of the onsite borrow pit. These areas will then be vegetated with species matching the estuarine fringe wetland community. NCDOT requests a 1:1 ratio for creation due to the high probability of success for extending adjacent wetland boundaries. In addition,NCDOT will preserve 1.1 ac. of estuarine fringe wetlands on the Visitor Center/Rest Area property. NCDOT plans to mitigate for the remaining 0.26 ac. of impacts offsite. NCDOT will mitigate 0.26 ac. with 0.26 ac. of successful riverine wetland restoration(1:1) at the NCDOT owned Dismal Swamp Mitigation Site in Gates and Perquimans Counties. A summary sheet showing total debits to the site and coordinates for this debit are included with this permit modification. NCDOT plans to mitigate for the remaining portion of the 0.26 ac. of impacts with 1.3 ac. of forested wetland preservation (5:1) at the Mashoes Road Mitigation Site in Dare County. Per conversations with resources agencies, no stream restoration will be required due to impacts being less than 150 ft however, NCDOT will vegetate the portions of the stream banks where vegetation has been removed do to a stream restoration project. The stream banks to be vegetated are within NCDOT right-of-way and will include species matching the estuarine fringe wetland community. TABLE 1.

Total 3.54 Dare County's Land Use Plan requires that "Mitigation activities and improvements designed as compensation for wetland loss occurring in Dare County shall be located, whenever possible, in Dare County and in proximity to the loss." Landmark Design Group (formerly Langley and McDonald), conducted a wetland mitigation search for the Pasquotank River Basin in September of 1998 under contract with NCDOT. Of the sites identified, only one (Mashoes Road Site) included mitigation within Dare County matching the impacts associated with this project. The Forested Wetland Restoration acreage at this site has been debited for other NCDOT projects. Therefore,NCDOT proposes to debit 0.26 ac of wetland restoration outside of Dare County. The N.C. Coastal Resources Commission has adopted a 30 ft buffer for new development along navigable waterways in the 20 counties governed by the N.C. Division of Coastal Management. A portion of the fill material necessary for the Visitor Center/Rest Area will be placed within 30 ft of the unnamed tributary to the Croatan Sound. NCDOT plans to remove portions of the existing fill material that falls within the 30 ft buffer and replace it with new fill material to create a more stable fill slope. However, this new fill material will not exceed the footprint of the existing fill material and NCDOT has minimized where,possible, the need to place any fill material within the 30 ft buffer. Also included with this permit modification is revised information for wetland reforestation planting in wetland areas east of the new Croatan Sound bridge currently under construction. At the request of the Roanoke Corridor Commission, indigenous wetland trees will be planted from the toe of slope to existing vegetation and/or right-of-way line totaling 2.1 ac. No additional fill, excavation, or clearing in jurisdictional wetlands will occur as a result of this reforestation. The mix will planted at rate of approximately 680 trees/acre and include: 20%Pinus taeda, loblolly pine 20% Quercus virginiana, live oak (planted closest to the toe of slope) 20 % Taxodium distichum, bald cypress 20%Magnolia virginiana, sweetbay magnolia 20% Quercus nigra, water oak It is anticipated these activities will be authorized by a minor modification to the existing CAMA Major Permit No. 7-98. Checks in the amount of$100.00 are enclosed to cover the CAMA processing fee and $475.00 for the NCDWQ processing fee. The adjacent property owner has been notified of this permit request. A copy of the letter sent to the property owner and the certified mail receipt are attached. The signed return receipt from this property owner will be forwarded to you as soon as possible. The N.C. Stormwater Management permit application is also attached as required by NCDWQ.

This modification request was coordinated by public notice dated April 5, 2001,with the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, and other appropriate State and Federal agencies. This coordination revealed one objection to this modification request. By letters dated April 24 and May 15, 2001,the Environmental Protection Agency requested higher mitigation ratios than those supplied by the applicant and that stream impacts be mitigated. The applicant addressed these concerns and agreed to mitigate for stream impacts. However,the wetland creation, _>y. restorationnand pre a ation is adequate mitigation for project impacts when associated with the closing of all future acces;ivoints alon this bypass project: Additional access points could produce secondary wetland impacts. • • Therefore, the permit is hereby modified in accordance with the specific work activities described above. It is understood that all conditions of the original permit remain applicable and that the expiration date is unchanged. In addition,the permittee will comply with the following special permit conditions: a. To partially mitigate for project impacts and to prevent secondary wetland impacts from this project,no access points will be granted along the TIP R-2551,Manteo Bypass project. b. The Permittee shall fully implement the mitigation plan, entitled Roanoke Island Visitor Center/Rest Area Mitigation Plan, dated May 2001, and this plan will be commenced immediately, and implemented concurrently with all phases of construction activities authorized by this permit modification. c. NCDOT will maintain the wetland and stream mitigation sites utilized to satisfy Special Condition(b.)in perpetuity in the condition established by the mitigation plan. Prohibited activities within these mitigation areas specifically include,but are not limited to: the construction or placement of roads,walkways,buildings, signs, or structures of any kind (i.e., billboards,interior fences, etc.);filling,grading,excavation, leveling, or any other earth moving activity that may alter the drainage pattern on the property;the cutting,mowing, destruction, removal, damage or other alternation of.any vegetation; disposal or storage of any debris,waste or garbage; except as may be authorized by the mitigation plans or subsequent modifications which are approved by the Corps of Engineers. In addition,the permittee shall take no action, whether on or off the mitigation properties,which will adversely impact the mitigation sites. d. Special Condition(c.), above, runs with the land. The permittee shall not sell, lease, or otherwise convey any interest in the properties used to satisfy mitigation requirements for this permit, to any third party,without the express written consent of the US Army Corps of Engineers. e.

Anticipated impacts from the project include the filling of 1.14 acres of both Estuarine/Public Trust Waters and Section 404 Jurisdictional Wetlands. The mitigation required for the 1.14-acre loss totals 3.54 acres. Part of the mitigation will be onsite and the balance elsewhere in Dare County except for a .26 acre portion debited to the Dismal Swamp. Overview of LUP Policy: The Dare County Land Classification Map identifies the site area as "Community". Due to project also being within an Estuarine Shoreline AEC, it also qualifies for the "Conservation Classification. The following policies are related to this request: Freshwater Swamps & Marshes: Policy 2.1.2(h-1), pg. 60 (amended 1998). "Dare County supports the Coastal Commission's policy to mitigate losses of Coastal Resources for those projects shown to be in the public interest as defined by the standards in 15NCAC7M .0700 et. Seq. and only after all other means of avoiding or minimizing such losses have been exhausted."

In instances when improvements to publicly owned or managed facilities conflict with freshwater wetlands protection programs, an alternative analysis should be conducted in an effort to avoid wetland loss or alteration Mitigation activities and improvements designed as compensation for wetland loss occurring in Dare County shall be located, whenever possible, in Dare County and in proximity to the loss. Freshwater Swamps & Marshes: Policy 2.1.2 (h-2), pg. 61 (amended 1998) "Dare County supports the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Program." Discussion of Determination: Dare County's Land Use Plan requires that "Mitigation activities and improvements designed for wetland loss occurring in Dare County shall be located, whenever possible, in Dare County and in proximity to the loss." NCDOT's correspondence dated February 23, 2001 noted that alternative design efforts and alternatives were explored to avoid the wetland related impacts of the project. Alternatives were determined to either result in either increased wetlands related impacts or increase safety risks for vehicular movements. Further the mitigation credits and sources proposed will result in over 96% of the mitigation to be located either on site or within Dare County. Therefore I recommend a determination that the project be determined as consistent with and not in conflict with the Dare County LUP, provided mitigation is accomplished. 2 North Carolina • Department of Environment and Natural Resources 4 • Division of Coastal Management Michael F.Easley,Governor NCDE§IR William G.Ross Jr.,Secretary Donna D.Moffitt,Director MEMORANDUM APR 3 0 2001 TO: Pat McClain,NC Division of Land Resources COASTAL MANAGEMENT Renee Gledhill-Earley,NC Division of Archives&History David Cox,NC Wildlife Resources Commission John Sutherland,NC Division of Water Resources R � � - Sara Winslow,NC Division of Marine Fisheries John Hennessy,NC Division of Water Quality Bill Moore,NC Division of Water Quality n • Linda Sewall,NC Division of Environmental ��� OASTAL MANAGc;�,�, Kelly Williams,NC Division of Coastal Management John Thayer,NC Division of Coastal Management(w/o attachments) MAR 2 2 2001 CC: Frank Jennings,NC Division of Coastal Management Bill Arrington,NC Division of Coastal Management FROM: Cathy Brittingham DATE: March 21, 2001 SUBJECT: K-4003,permit modification request to construct the proposed Roanoke Island Visitor Information Center and rest area adjacent to US 64-264 between the Croatan Sound and the US 64/NC 345 intersection,Dare County.

DeLony District Engineer ATTN: Mr. Michael Bell Washington Regulatory Field Office Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers P.O. Box 1000 Washington, North Carolina 27889-1000 SUBJ: NCDOT: TIP R-2551; Modification of Permit for Roanoke Island Visitor Center • Action ID No. 199502334 Dear Colonel DeLony: This is in response to the above mentioned public notice for the North Carolina Department of Transportation(NCDOT), to modify an existing permit for the widening of US4l264 and fill an additional 1.0 acre of wetlands, mechanize land clear an additional 0.14 acres of wetlands, and partially fill 145.5 linear feet of stream to construct the Roanoke Island Visitor Information Center and Rest Area. Wetland mitigation is proposed in the form of a combination of(a) 0.11 acre wetland restoration, 0.77 acre wetland creation, and 1.1 acre wetland preservation on-site, (b) 0.26 acre riverine wetland restoration at the Dismal Swamp Mitigation Site in Gates and Perquimans Counties, and (c) 1.3 acre of wetland preservation at the Mashoes Road Mitigation Site in Dare County. No stream restoration is proposed. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 Wetlands Section (EPA) has reviewed the public notice, and recommends that the applicant be required to provide compensatory mitigation for the stream impacts. We understand that the State of North Carolina typically does not require compensatory mitigation for stream impacts less than 150 linear feet. However, the federal agencies have no such limits, and we believe that high quality waters such as SA waters should be mitigated regardless of the amount of impacts. The stream functions should he replaced a the following minimum mitigation ratios: Stream restoration 1.5:1 Stream enhancement (more activities 3:1 than just planting of vegetation) • Stream stabilization 5:1 Stream preservation (with buffer) 10:1 2 We note that the planting of vegetation along the remaining reach of the creek may be utilized as stream stabilization credit. EPA also believes that the wetlands mitigation is insufficient. We do not believe it is appropriate to compensate wetland losses with 1:1 restoration, 1:1 creation, or 5:1 preservation. Although the credit makeup of mitigation banks allows the use of 1:1 and 5:1 for restoration and preservation (respectively), an applicant must typically pay for 2 credits for each acre of impact. We recommend that the EPA's recommended mitigation ratios be applied to the mitigation proposal. Applying these ratios, one arrives at the following number of acres which are compensated: 0.11 acre Estuarine Fringe Restoration _ 2 = 0.06 0.77 acre Estuarine Fringe Creation = 6= 0.13 0.26 acre Riverine Wetland Restoration 4. 2 = 0.13 1.3 acre Forested Wetland Preservation_ 10 = 0.13 1.1 acre Estuarine Fringe Preservation= 10= 0.11 Total 0.56 acres compensated As the total number of wetland impacts is 1.14 acres, the applicant should mitigate for the remaining 0.58 acre. We note that the use of the Dismal Swamp mitigation bank is acceptable. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project.

The applicant should be advised that plans and specifications for all water system improvements must be approved by the Division of Environmental Health prior to the award of a contract or the initiation of construction (as required by 15A NCAC 18C 0.0300 et. seq.). For information, contact the Public Water Supply Section, (919)733- 2460. This project will be classified as a non-community public water supply and must comply with state and federal drinking water monitoring requirements. For more information, the applicant should contact the Public Water Supply Section, (919)733-2321. If this project is constructed as proposed, we will recommend closure of adjacent waters to the harvest of shellfish. For information regarding the shellfish sanitation program, the applicant should contact the Shellfish Sanitation // Section, (252)726-6827. Cumulative impacts from this type of project could cause deterioration in water quality. The proposed project would increase impervious surfaces and alter natural drainage patterns. There would be a loss of natural vegetation causing an increase in stormwater runoff which could jeopardize the open status of adjacent waters. For more information, the applicant should contact the Shellfish Sanitation Section at (252)726-6827. The subject project is located in an area open to shellfish harvesting. The 10-slip dock, as proposed, would not cause closure in accordance with 15A NCAC 18A MARINAS: DOCKING FACILMES: OTHER MOORING AREAS: however, dockage at the facility could exceed 10 boats. If this was to occur, closure would be recommender in accordance with DEH rules. For information regarding shellfish sanitation, the applicant shculc contact the Shellfish Sanitation Section at (252)726-6827. Proliferation of these type facilities could cause deterioration in water quality and consequently additional olcsures of shellfishing waters. For more information, the applicant should ccntcct the Shellfish Sanitation Section at (252)726-6827. The spoil disposal area(s) proposed for this project may produce e mosquito breeding prcbiem,.
