Attention: Mr. Bob Stroud DIVISION OFCOASTAL MANAGEMENT
SUBJECT: New Hanover County, proposed replacement of Bridge
No. 17 over Mott Creek on SR 1100, State Project
No. 8 .2250301, TIP No. B-2596 .
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes
to replace bridge 17 over Mott Creek on SR 1100 between
Wilmington and SR 1187 (see enclosed drawing 1 of 4 ) . The
proposed replacement involves constructing a new bridge on
existing location. Traffic will be detoured on existing
roadways during construction.
The new bridge will be constructed by utilizing two 12 . 5
meter cored slab bridge sections, with one support bent being
placed within Mott Creek (see enclosed Figure 3 of 4 ) . The
existing in-water support bent will be removed. The elevation
of the proposed bridge will be slightly higher than that of the
existing structure. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the
placement of the two cored slab bridge sections, the existing
roadway fill behind the existing end bents will be excavated
back for a distance of approximately 4 meters ( 13 feet) behind
the northwest bent and approximately 6 meters (20 feet) behind
the southeast bent. This will allow for a wider navigational
clearance at this location. With this information in mind, the
Department believes that the project is consistent with the
management objectives and use standards for Public Trust AEC' s,
which are stated in T15A: 07H: 0207 (d) and T15A: 07H: 0208 (H) .
The paved roadway width of the existing bridge approaches
is 19 feet, with 4 foot shoulders on either side. Whenever the
Department replaces an existing bridge, it is the policy of the
American Association of State Highway and Transportation

Officials (AASHTO) that the roadway approaches be up-graded to
conform with current design standards . The standards for this
type of new bridge requires a paved roadway width of 24 ' with 6
foot graded shoulders on either side. This mandated widening
of the roadway and approaches will require that the fill slopes
also be extended, leading to unavoidable losses to the adjacent
tidal freshwater marsh community.
As originally designed, the use of 3 : 1 fill slopes would
have lead to 0 . 07 acres of wetland impact within three of the
bridge quadrants . However, based upon coordination between the
Department and the Division of Coastal Management, the
Department recognized that further wetland impact minimizations
were needed. Therefore, the project design was changed to
reflect 2 : 1 fill slopes, reducing impacts to 0 . 04 acres .
The 2 : 1 slope, which will require select fill material and an
underlayer of filter fabric, is the steepest stable slope that
can be obtained. A l : 1 slope could not be stabilized due to
the presence of approximately 8 meters of muck in the area.
Rock plating of a slope steeper than 2 : 1 could cause slope
failure, further settlement problems and a resulting mud wave
into the marsh. Additionally, a fill slope steeper than 2 : 1
would require additional guardrail and shoulder width. It
should be noted that the muck underneath the exiting roadway
has consolidated and settled, making it possible to construct
the proposed end bent slopes at 11 : 1 with rock plating.
NCDOT is requesting that the proposed work be authorized
under the appropriate Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA)
permit. This project has previously been authorized under 404
Nationwide Permit 23 (COE Action ID. 199303655, issued August
16 , 1993) and the corresponding 401 General Water Quality
Certification. Therefore, this application is being supplied
to the Corps of Engineers for informational purposes only.
The enclosed permit drawings do not show any adjacent
property owner boundaries . NCDOT believes that obtaining
specific property boundaries for permit purposes when replacing
existing structures beneath public highways would be of
considerable expense and would be unwarranted for routine
maintenance operations . In this specific case, the proposed
activity will not lead to any impacts outside of the existing
right of way. The Department therefore does not believe that,
in this case, showing exact property lines is necessary.
Included for your information are a permit application
package, set of permit drawings (4 pages) , adjacent property
owner list ( 1page) , and adjacent property owner notification
receipts . A processing fee of $250 is also included.

additional information, please contact Mr. Doug; uggett of

NC DOT SR 1100
Page 2
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1/18/95
The applicant is the Department of Transportation with a proposal to replace and upgrade the bridge
crossing Mott's Creek on State Road 1100 (River Rd) in New Hanover County. Mott's Creek is a small
tributary to the Cape Fear River approximately 5 miles north of Snow's Cut. Mott's Creek is a tidal
creek with significant freshwater influence. The area is typically vegetated with Spartina cynosuroides,
Cladium jamaicense, and Baccharis halimifolia. The navigable portion of the creek is between the
abutments of the bridge which is approximately 36' wide. The present bridge is elevated above mean
high water approximately 2.5', and the depth in the channel is approximately -3' mlw and approximately
6.5' mhw. The present bridge has one support bent midway through the structure.
The project area is within the Conservation classification of the New Hanover County Land Use Plan.
The waters are classified C-swamp by the Division of Environmental Management. The Division of
Marine Fisheries has designated the creek as Primary Nursery Area, and there is no shellfish resource.
Bridge #17 is along a straight stretch of River Road. The approaches are presently 19' wide, with 4'
shoulders, and a 24' wide bridge. The Department policy is to upgrade the roadway approaches to
conform to current design standards upon bridge replacement. The proposal is to widen the approaches
24'; to widen the shoulders to 6'; and to replace the bridge. The widening of the approaches would
require the filling of approximately 2918 square feet of the mixed marsh mentioned above. This was
minimized through the use of 2:1 slopes rather than the original plan of 3:1 slopes. There would be
a resultant increase of 750 square feet of impervious area from the paved surface.
The bridge would be replaced with two 12.5 meter core slab bridge sections (82'). This would widen
the opening from the current 36' to approximately 65.5' between the rip rap, with a channel 49' wide.
There would remain one support bent in the middle of the structure. To accomplish the extra width,
the high ground under the current roadway would be excavated landward of the existing abutments for
19.5' on the south side, and 13' on the north side. This would also require the excavation of
approximately 390 square feet of wetlands due to the extra width of the shoulders. Approximately 9.5
cubic yards of Class B rip rap are to be placed under the bridge along the new abutments and the newly
graded creek banks. The rip rap will extend for approximately 62' on the north and 56' on the south,
and will be approximately 6.5' wide.
The newly constructed bridge will be elevated above mean high water approximately 3' as opposed to
the existing structure which is elevated approximately 2.5' above mean high water.
Approximately 7355 square feet of high ground and marsh area will be graded for the roadway and
shoulders. Best management practices will be utilized for sedimentation/erosion control. The
Department plans to utilize existing roadways for detours during construction.
A spoil site has not been determined for the nominal amount of excavated material. This area will be
a high ground site approved by a representative of DCM prior to construction. The chosen method of
containing the spoil will also be approved by the Division prior to construction.
While the application does not reflect exactly the same square footage impacts to the wetlands, these
determinations were made by field inspection.

10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The replacement of Bridge #17 will increase the navigability of Mott's Creek. The upgrading of the
road system with the rip rap for stabilization will cause to be filled approximately 2918 square feet of
mixed marsh, and 7355 square feet of high ground. Approximately 618 square feet of high ground and
390 square feet of mixed marsh will be excavated landward and surrounding the existing abutments for
the placement of the core slab section. Approximately 1968 square feet of open water will be
incorporated by this structure.
The shoulders will reflect a 2:1 slope, and will be vegetated. While there does not appear to be the
necessity to widen the shoulders at this site, the Department has stated that this is policy, and has
minimized the impact with the use of 2:1 slopes. The creek bank under and around the bridge will be
stabilized with rip rap.
There will be a resultant increase of approximately 26% in impervious surface coverage over that
existing.

Recommendations for State Permit - NC DOT SR 1100
1) In order to protect ' v _rile shrimp and finfish populations, no excavation or filling will be
permitted between Aprn1 and September 30 of any year without the prior approval of the
Division of Coastal Management, in consultation with the Division of Marine Fisheries.
2) The riprap material must be free from loose dirt or any other pollutant. It must be of a size
sufficient to prevent its movement from the site by wave or current action.
,1 3) No excavated or fill material will be placed at any time, in any marsh or surrounding waters,
outside of the alignment of the fill area indicated on the workplat(s).
4) All excavated materials will be confined above mean high water and landward of regularly or
irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spill-
over of solids into any marsh or surrounding waters.
5) The diked disposal area will be constructed a sufficient distance from the mean high water level
or any marsh to eliminate the possibility of dike erosion into or upon any marsh or surrounding
waters.
6) Silt fencing or other barrier will be placed between the newly graded shoulders and the adjacent
marsh until this area is stabilized.

NC-DOT Mott's Creek Bridge Replacement, River Road
DATE: January 23, 1995
This permit consistency opinion is based on my review of the NC-DOT, c/o B.J.O'Quinn permit
application, the Field Investigation Report (T. Barrett, 1/18/95), and my understanding and
interpretation of the policies presented in the Wilmington/New Hanover County Land Use Plan.
The applicant requests a permit to replace and upgrade River Road bridge#17 and its approaches
over Mott's Creek (north of Saunders Road intersection). The proposal is to bring the bridge
up to current NCDOT standards. This will include increasing bridge length and width, increasing
approach lanes and shoulder width, and raising the bridge. The location and complete description
of the project are in the Field Investigation Report.
LAND USE CLASSIFICATION: Conservation
RELATED POLICIES AND IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES:
1.2 PROTECTION OF CAMA-DEFINED AREAS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
The policies in this section support state and federal protection of Areas of Environmental
Concern. The County desires to protect the water quality of estuaries and rivers. Land use along
the AEC's is to be a balance of public good and resource protection. The implementation
measures support careful management of runoff during and after development.
The Land Use Plan looks to state and federal project review to protect the natural resources.
This project will be consistent with the New Hanover County Land Use Plan if all conditions
placed on construction of the replacement bridge and approach by review agencies are met.
There are numerous creek crossings along River Road and throughout the County. While one
bridge replacement/upgrade with its accompanying marsh disturbance (however well controlled)
may not have a detrimental effect upon the adjacent waters, the cumulative impact of
construction is unknown. All efforts should be made to minimize impacts of this project.

Bridge #17 over Mott ' s Creek on SR1100, Wilmington, New
Hanover County, North Carolina.
Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have
reviewed the project and associated impacts on wildlife and
fishery resources in the area. A site visit was made on February
8 , 1995 . Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions
of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat . 401, as
amended; 16 U. S . C. 661 et . seq. ) and the Coastal Area Management
Act (G. S . 113A-100 through 113A-128) .
The Department of Transportation is proposing to replace and
upgrade bridge #17 over Mott ' s Creek and its approaches . This
will result in the filling or excavation of about 3 , 308 sq. ft .
of mixed marsh consisting of Spartina cynosuroides, Cladium
jamaicense, and Baccharis halimifolia. The bridge is to be
replaced with two slabs totalling 82 ft . , widening the opening
from 36 ft . to 65 . 5 ft . Rip-rap will be placed along the new
bridge abutments and newly graded creek banks . Mott ' s Creek is a
tributary to the Cape Fear River and is classified as ' C-sw'
waters . This section of the creek is also designated as a
Primary Nursery Area.
Our major concern is the potential adverse impacts to marine
fauna resulting from turbidity associated with the proposed
activities . Elevated turbidity could reduce water quality in
these areas and stress marine organisms . Excessive turbidity is
particularly damaging to egg and larval life stages of marine
organisms . Therefore, we recommend that bridge replacement and
road upgrade be prohibited between A ril 1 and September 30 .
Also, we recommend that a minim of t . be left between the

' NCDOT Bridge #17 2 February 14 , 1995
•
rip-rap and both sides of the main channel of Mott ' s Creek. This
would provide a travel corridor for small animals and reduce the
chance of wildlife crossing the highway, therefore reducing
vehicle/animal collisions . So modified, we would not object to
the project as proposed.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project .

Dear Mr. O'Quinn:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for State
approval for development of your property located on State Road 1100 over Mott's Creek in New
Hanover County. It was received completed on 1/18/95, and appears to be adequate for processing at
this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is 04/03/95. An additional 75-day review
period is provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been
notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review period
extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended review.
However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the
proposed development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be
posted at the property of your proposed development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous
point along your property where it can be observed from a public road. Some examples would be:
Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-way fronting your property;
or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your property.
Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
A field report has been prepared and is in the process of being circulated to the various state and
federal review agencies for their comments. If additional information is required based on this review,
the agencies may contact you directly.
Sincerely,
T. Barrett
Field Representative

Dear Sir:
SUBJECT: New Hanover County, proposed replacement of Bridge
No. 17 over Mott Creek on SR 1100, State Project
No. 8 . 2250301, TIP No. B-2596 .
Please reference North Carolina Department of
Transportation' s December 16, 1994 permit application for the
above referenced project. It has recently been discovered
that copies of the adjacent property owner notification
certified mail receipts for this project were omitted from
the permit package . Copies of these receipts are therefore
included. Additionally, at the request of Division of
Coastal Management field staff, a check for $250 was
submitted to the Wilmington Division DCM office on December
16 , 1994 .
If we may be of further assistance, or if you require
any additional information, please contact Doug Huggett at
( 919 ) 733-3141 .
