of Burgaw - Bridge No. 92 .

NCDOT (Bridge No. 92)
Page 2
9 . PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located just downstream of the existing SR
1509 which crosses Burgaw Creek. The creek at the existing bridge
is approximately 50 ' wide. The wetland to either side of the
creek appears to be seasonally wet due to the overflow from the
creek. Existing vegetation in this wetland include maple and gum.
There is some evidence of previous cypress growth in this area
based on the presence of stumps . There appears to be somewhat
limited navigation opportunities upstream of the bridge . Sampling
activities in the past indicate that fisheries resources in this
stream are fairly limited due to the presence of the Town of
Burgaw' s waste treatment plant upsteam.
The applicants propose to relocate the existing roadbed across the
creek and to replace the existing bridge with box culverts . The
new roadbed will be aligned to the south of the existing road. The
distance across the wetlands from east to west for the proposed fill
is approximately 6 , 500 ' . The average width of the fill is approxi-
mately 70 ' . The area of the proposed fill in the wetland is
approximately 1 . 06 acres . The stream bed will be excavated to an
elevation of approximately 8 . 0 ' and four 12 ' x 9 ' reinforced
concrete box culverts will be installed. Fill will be placed
around the culverts to stabilize the installation. Approximately
800 cubic yards of material will be removed for the project below
the ordinary high water contour (OHW) . Approximately 3 , 680 cubic
yards will be placed below OHW to complete the fill and culvert
installation. Two 36" culverts will connect the wetland on either
side of the road fill .
The applicant proposes to remove the portion of the existing road-
bed now in the wetlands . This is approximately 0 . 5 acres of area
within the wetland.
10 . ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
Approximately 1 . 0 acres of wooded wetland and stream bed will be
filled as a result of the relocation. Approximately 0 . 5 acres
will be recovered upon the removal of the existing roadbed. The
impacts of the new fill can be somewhat minimized by controlling
the slopes of the fill and by continuous sedimentation control
measures . The possibility of navigation by all but the smallest
crafts will be eliminated by the bridge replacement. The crossing
is located within a 100 year floodplain. Hopefully the design will
accommodate the expected storm event.
SUBMITTED BY: C. Robert Stroud, Jr. OFFICE: OCM-Wilmington DATE: 9/26/84

Re: State Application for a State Permit - NCDOT - Bridge No. 92
We have no objections subject to the following conditions:
1 . In order to minimize impacts all slopes within the wetland boundaries
should be 2: 1 .
2 . The total existing roadbed within the wetland boundaries must be
removed (as compaired to that work shown on sheet 2 of 3) .
3 . Siltation dams and other control measures must be implemented
upstream and downstream of the total project.
4 . The project design must comply with construction within the 100
year storm floodplain.

I . Description
This report covers the proposed replacement of the
SR 1509 bridge over Burgaw Creek near the Town of Burgaw in
central Pender County. Location of the bridge is shown on
Figure 1.
II . Summary
The existing timber bridge is structurally deficient and
in poor condition. The proposed treatment is replacement
with a box culvert along new location just south of the
present bridge site. (The location is denoted as Alternate 2
on Figure 3 ) . Approximately 0 .3 mile of new roadway
construction would be involved. Proposed cross section is •
22-foot pavement with minimum 6-foot shoulders . The existing
bridge would be utilized to maintain traffic flow during
construction, but would be removed upon completion of the
project. Total estimated cost of the project is $215, 000 .
III . Existing Conditions
SR 1509 is designated as a minor collector route in the
Pender County Functional Classification Plan. Current
traffic volume is approximately 400 vehicles per day. The
estimated volume for the year 2005 is 700 vpd, including 5
TTSTs and 20 dual tired trucks .
The existing bridge spanning Burgaw Creek was
constructed in 1950 and is comprised of timber beams and deck
supported by timber piles, abutments, and bents . Length of
the bridge is 87 feet, and the clear roadway width is 23 feet.
The weight limit is 8 tons single vehicle and 12 tons truck
and trailer. Sufficiency rating for the bridge is 2 . 0 .
Views of the bridge are shown on Figure 2 .
The west approach to the subject bridge was recently
improved to a 22-foot shoulder section in conjunction with
construction of the Benson-Wilmington Freeway which
underpasses SR 1509 approximately 1400 feet west of the
bridge. The east approach has an 18-foot pavement with
generally 6-foot shoulders laid on a 17-degree curve . A 25
MPH advisory speed sign is in place on each side of this
curve. Only one accident attributed to the curve has been
reported in the past four years .

. 2
Land use in the project area is primarily wooded and
agricultural . Existing development is rural residential of
light density.
IV. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
A. Alternate 1 (Existing Location)
The replacement structure would be placed at the present
bridge site with minimum approach work. Horizontal and
vertical alignment for the approaches would remain the same
as the present facility. Based on a preliminary hydrographic
study, the estimated replacement structure is 44 feet of 4
barrel (12-foot by 9-foot each) reinforced concrete box
culvert. The structure would accommodate a stream having a
drainage basin of approximately 18 square miles .
During construction, traffic flow would be maintained
along a temporary detour immediately north of the
construction site. Detouring traffic along other routes is
not feasible and prudent because of considerable out of
direction travel that would be involved. For example, the
nearest alternate routes would require residents to travel
approximately additional 10 miles for each round trip between
the intersection of SR 1509 and SR 1411 and the Town of
Burgaw. Those closer to the bridge could be faced with as
much as 20 additional miles of two-way travel .
Estimated cost of Alternate 1 is as follows :
Roadway 24, 000
Structure 85, 000 CNI;xi
Bridge Removal 6, 000 ,
Temporary Detour 50, 000 4/4l c
Engineering & 1984
Contingencies 17 , 000 OFF 1
Right of Way 3 , 000
Total $185, 000
B. Alternate 2 (New Location)
The replacement structure would be placed on the south
(downstream) side of the existing location along an
approximate alignment shown as Alternate 2 on Figure 3 . With
this plan, the existing bridge could be used to maintain
traffic during construction.
Approximately 1500 feet of new roadway construction
would be involved. Preliminary design shows that the new
roadway could be aligned between the existing bridge and a
sharp bend of Burgaw Creek to avoid any channel change and
provide a minimum AASHTO design speed of 50 MPH. Such

3
alignment would require combination curves of approximately 2
and 7 1/2 degrees . Pavement and shoulder widths for the new
roadway should be the continuation of the new 22-foot
pavement and minimum 6-foot shoulders in place west of the
bridge.
Estimated cost of Alternate 2 is as follows :
Roadway $ 95, 000
Structure 85 , 000
Bridge Removal 6, 000
Engineering &
Contingencies 19, 000
Right of Way 10, 000
Total $215, 000
C. Alternate 3 (Existing Location with Realignment)
The replacement structure would be placed at the
existing bridge site but with realignment of the east
approach to alleviate the existing adverse curve. A
temporary on site detour would be required with this scheme.
Approximately 800 feet of new roadway construction would
be involved. The improved alignment would provide the same
design speed standard prescribed for Alternate 2 .
Estimated cost of Alternate 3 is as follows :
Roadway $ 61, 000 1
Structure 85, 000
Bridge Removal 6, 000 .tttr )�qz
Temporary Detour 50, 000 OFFICE OF COASTAL
Engineering & MGZ.
Contingencies 20, 000 W1 MIIVGTOj ,
Right of Way 8, 000
Total $230, 000
D. Recommended Alternate
Based on consideration of overall traffic safety .
benefits, project costs and environment, Alternate 2 is the
recommended plan for replacement of the subject bridge.
Although more costly than Alternate 1, Alternate 2 offers a
much better and safer alignment commensurate with the
function of the route and allows the use of the existing
bridge for maintaining traffic flow during construction. By
contrast, Alternate 1 retains a poor alignment that severly
restricts safe speeds to 25 MPH and creates a high potential
for accidents . It requires construction of a detour
facility. Alternate 3 improves the adverse curvature with
less roadway construction than Alternate 2 , but has greater
project cost due to the necessity for an on site detour.

. •
. 4
Construction of Alternate 2 requires the removal of
approximately 1 . 0 acre of wetlands from biological
production. -In contrast, Alternate 3 , if constructed, would
require the taking of 0 . 5 acre of wetlands, or half as much as
Alternate 2 . However, since Alternate 3 would require a
temporary detour facility across Burgaw Creek, some damage
would occur to the area wetlands in addition to that already
calculated in the 0 . 5 acre loss . Although Alternate 2 would
result in the highest acreage loss of wetlands, approximately
500 feet of the existing roadbed would be removed and the
underlying 0 . 5 acre land area would return to conditions
conducive to wetland vegetation. As a result, the net
wetland impact difference between Alternates 2 and 3 would be
approximately the same . Any other new location designed for
this project would require as much as, or more than, the
wetland acreage involved with Alternate 2 .
V. Environmental Evaluation
The nature and magnitude of the proposed project do not
indicate than any significant adverse effect on the
environment would result. The project replaces an old and
inadequate bridge with a modern facility near the existing
location with no displacement of businesses or residences
required. Because of limited impacts, the proposal qualifies
as a categorical exclusion.
The project would benefit the traveling public by
providing a safer facility. Heavy vehicles and equipment,
restricted from using the existing bridge due to the load
limit, would be able to utilize the new roadway. Motorists
would be afforded easier and less hazardous travel because of
the improved alignment of the road.
The project would not significantly increase traffic
volumes, and therefore, its impact on noise levels and air
quality should be minimal . Noise and air pollution would
increase during construction but would be temporary and held
to a minimum with appropriate construction control measures .
No construction noise impacts can be identified. The noise
evaluation completes the noise assessment requirements of
FHPM 7-7-3 , and no additional noise reports are required.
No structures of historical or architectural ?1-
significance are located within the project limits . The /y�
State Historic Preservation Officer will be asked to rew
this report and indicate whether an archaeological surv4v"i fb
will be necessary. 4 O.r S
Seasonally flooded bottomlands (wetlands ) occur onGJ.00lp j`9� `1
either side of SR 1509 at Burgaw Creek. Flooded conditions j, �1?
are evident in the woodlands, and along the banks of the
creek. Species noted throughout this stand include red it" �G'/e'

5
maple, sweet gum, swamp chestnut oak, ironwood, American
holly, water oak, black gum, green ash, American elm, tulip
poplar, cane, and cabbage palmetto . A few knees of once
present cypress trees were also observed along the banks of
the creek.
Approximately 700 feet of wetlands would be crossed by
the proposed project. As mitigation for loss of
approximately 1 . 0 acre of wetlands judged to be of average
quality, project plans will include removing portions of the
existing roadbed and allowing the underlying area to return
to wetland conditions . Estimated land area of the old
roadbed to be removed is 0. 5 acre.
Although the project would cause some loss of vegetation
and woodland cover, it should not significantly affect plant
and animal life. No taking of habitat for any know
threatened or endangered species would be required.
Burgaw Creek, a tributary to the Northeast Cape Fear
River, is classified ecologically as Redfin-Warmouth waters,
and sanitarily as Class C. Class C water is suitable for
fishing and fish propogation and any other usage of waters of
lower classification. According to Fish (1968) , this stream
is a poor fishing stream particularly in the polluted and
channelized reaches below Burgaw. Construction across Burgaw
Creek could result in some siltation of the stream, but would
be minimized by use of standard erosion control measures with
periodic inspection and maintenance.
The project should have no significant effect on flood
levels . Since Pender County is a participant in the Federal
Flood Insurance regular program, this crossing of Burgaw
Creek is within an identified flood hazard area. Figure 4
depicts the limits of the 100 year flood plain as contained
in the flood insurance study. The proposed replacement with
a crossing design of similar conveyance to the existing
crossing will be consistent with the intent and requirements
of the zoning regulations .
It will not be necessary to apply to the Corps of
Engineers for an individual permit as the Nationwide Section
404 permit provisions are applicable, and the provision of
330 . 5(b) and 330 . 6 will be followed. However, a Coastal Area
Management Act permit will be required. No other permits
will be required.

Dear Mr. Waters:
This is with reference to the application submitted for the replace-
ment of 92 over B Creek - Pender County - North Carolina.
Based on observations made during a recent field investigation it
has been determined that this portion of Burgaw Creek qualifies as
a public trust area of environmental concern. Therefore a CAMA
permit is required for the activities described in the permit appli-
cation.
A review of the application indicates that the information provided is
complete with the exception of a processing fee of $100 . 00 which is
the required amount for projects of this nature.
Would you please submit a check for that amount payable to NCNRCD in
order that the permit processing can continue.
If you have any questions concerning the above or if I can be of any
other assistance, please advise.
Sincerely,
Jp-

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Parker
-J6°
FROM: Bob Stroud
SUBJECT: Burgaw Creek - 'dge Replacment S.R. 1509
Assessment Package --.- --�"
DATE: February 29, 1984
On February 16, 1984 we investigated the proposed project site. Based on our
observations it appears that the area under the alternate route is a typical
flooded wooded swamp. Water extended almost to the highway right-of-way at
the time of the visit. Historical sampling efforts indicate that Burgaw Creek
is used by anadromous species. Additionally the approximately 1.0 acre which
will be lost provides for nutrient uptake, sediment control and also provides
detrital materials for various aquatic species which use the stream. The
100 year flood plan classification requires, based on my recent conversation
with FEMA officials in Atlanta, that construction practices are compatible
with expected storm events. The calvalier language in the assessment does not
actually address this problem. We need to know the current flow designed for
the bridge configuration and the proposed design flow which the culverts
represent.
When we receive a permit application I assume that conditions would be suggested
that closely resemble those in the X-3D project which minimize wetland impacts.
