RALEIGH

Attention: Mr. Ed Harrell
Dear Mr. Sampson:
SUBJECT: Proposed Improvements to Halstead Boulevard,
Pasquotank County; Federal Aid No. STP-1152(4); State
Project No. 8.2110201; TIP No. U-3449.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to extend Halstead Boulevard
in Elizabeth City,North Carolina, from the existing US 17 business to the new US 17 Elizabeth
City bypass. The purpose of the proposed project is to provide expedient access to residential and
commercial districts in Elizabeth City from the Elizabeth City Bypass. Completion of the
project will also provide equally convenient access to the bypass for travel out of the immediate
Elizabeth City area for those who want to avoid more congested urban routes. Northbound
traffic on the new US 17 bypass could access the downtown area by exiting at the proposed
Halstead Boulevard interchange. Southbound traffic on the bypass may choose to exit here as
well if the destination is south and west Elizabeth City. Similarly, local traffic enroute to points
south or north of Elizabeth City may choose to use the Halstead Blvd. extension to gain access to
the more efficient freeway facility rather than traveling along existing urban routes.
The project will result in the construction of a new section of roadway from the existing
western terminus of Halstead Boulevard to a proposed interchange with the Elizabeth City
Bypass. The project is approximately 5.8 km (3.6 mi) in length, more than 70% of which will
cross open farm fields. The project is designed as a four-lane divided facility with a 16.0-foot
median.

RALEIGH NC 27699-1548

The project will cross one jurisdictional wetland near the eastern terminus of the project.
This wetland is a bottomland community associated with the proposed crossing of an unnamed
tributary to Knobbs Creek. The upland fringes and upper reaches of the floodplain are vegetated
with sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), red maple, ironwood(Carpinus caroliniana) and tulip
poplar(Liriodendron tulipifera), along with privet (Ligustrum sinense), greenbrier(Smilax spp.),
grapevine (Vitis rotundifolia), honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) and giant cane. In the wetter
portions of the floodplain bald cypress (Taxodium distichum), tupelo (Nyssa aquatica), swamp
gum (N. sylvatica. var. bijlora), green ash(Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and swamp white oak
(Quercus bora) are abundant. Red maple and swamp chestnut oak (Q. michauxii) are
common, but not co-dominants. This community will be bridged in its entirety from high ground
to high ground.
A temporary work bridge, instead of a fill causeway, will be utilized for construction of
the permanent structure. Both the new structure and the temporary work bridge are
approximately 208.0 meters (682.25 feet) in length. The permanent bridge will contain 7
interior bents. Each bent will have a single row of 12 concrete piles. Each pile will measure
3.67 feet by 3.67 feet and will be 65.27 feet long. Average span length will be 85.5 feet. Spans
of this length minimize the number of permanent bents in wetlands. However, they present the
challenge of accessing the bridge for construction. The length of the bridge and the length of the
each span does not allow for top-down construction. Therefore, there are two options. The
NCODT can build a temporary earthen causeway as a construction access or a temporary bridge
can be built.
The NCDOT has chosen to construct the more expensive temporary bridge as a way to
minimize impacts to the high quality wetlands surrounding the unnamed tributary to Knobbs
Creek. The temporary work bridge eliminates the need for a causeway while maintaining the
ability of the wetland to continue its current hydrologic regime and function. Please note that the
only fill that will be placed into this wetland will be from the temporary work bridge pilings and
the permanent bridge pilings. The support pilings for the temporary bridge will be removed
immediately following completion of the permanent structure. The area(square feet) of
permanent fill resulting from the pilings themselves is discussed on forms MP2 and MPS. Please
note that jetting will not be used to install pilings.
The project will not require shoreline stabilization. However,there will be placement of
rip-rap under each end bent on the bridge abutments. This will help to stabilize the bridge
approach. It will not protect, nor is it intended-to protect,the shoreline of the unnamed tributary
to Knobbs Creek. The placement of this rip-rap is noted on Form DCM MP-2 in item number 3;
questions a and b.
It should be noted that the project also crosses an agricultural drainage that ties into a
natural drainage just"downstream" of the project. This area has been channelized heavily in the
past and discussions with various members of the regulatory community have indicated that bank
stability and water quality within the immediate area could be improved by providing a vegetated
buffer from the edge of the crossing to the nearest tree line downstream of the pipe crossing. The
vegetated buffer will be 50.0 feet wide on each side of the channel and will run continuously for
approximately 200.0 meters (656.0 feet)to the tree line. The buffer will be planted with a

•
mixture of river birch Betula nigra, sycamore Platanus occidentalis, willow oak Ouercus
phellos, and green ash Fraxinus pennsylvanica.
The NCDOT hereby requests that this project be authorized by the issuance of a Coastal
Area Management Act Major Development Permit. Please find attached the completed MP
forms along with the appropriate permit drawings. The certified mail "green cards"from the
adjacent riparian landowner notifications are also included. It should be noted that two attempts
were made to contact Mr. Meliville Jones. Both packages were returned by the postal service.
The Pasquotank County Tax Office was contacted after the first attempt, to ensure the correct
address, and a new package was mailed. The receipts from these attempts are included even
though no signature was obtained. The NCDOT has also requested authorization from the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers under separate cover.
If you have any questions,please don't hesitate to call Mr. Lindsey Riddick of my staff at (919)

tributary to Knobbs Creek and associated wetlands located 3/10 mile north of the US 17
Business/Halstead Boulevard intersection.

NC DOT (HALSTEAD BOULEVARD EXTENSION BRIDGE) TIP No. U-3449
FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT
PAGE #2
Project Setting
NC DOT proposes to create a connector road to link the existing US 17 Business road in
downtown Elizabeth City to the new US 17 Elizabeth City bypass. The 3.6 mile connector road
will extend from the western terminus of Halstead Boulevard to a proposed interchange with the
Elizabeth City bypass. More than 2 1/2 miles of the four lane divided highway with 16' median
will cross open farm fields. The road will cross an unnamed tributary to Knobbs Creek and
associated "404" jurisdictional wetlands (bottomland) located 3/10 of a mile from the end of
Halstead Boulevard.
The lower portions of the floodplain are vegetated with bald cypress (Taxodium distichum),
tupelo (Nyyssa aquatica), swamp gum (N. sylvatica), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and
swamp white oak(Quereus biflora). Upper portions of the floodplain are vegetated with sycamore
(Pratanus occidentalis), red maple (Acer rubrum), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), and tulip
poplar (Liradendron tulipfera).
The waters of Knobbs Creek and tributaries to it are classified as CSW by the NC Division
of Environmental Management. These waters are classified as Inland Fishing Waters by the NC
Marine Fisheries Commission and NC Wildlife Resources Commission and as Public Trust Waters
by the NC Coastal Resources Commission. At the proposed crossing the tributary ranges 100'-
110' in width and 1'-2' below NWL in depth.
Proposed Project
NC DOT proposes to cross the tributary and associated freshwater wetlands by constructing
a 52' x 682' long concrete bridge with seven bents. Each bent is supported by twelve 44" x 44"
driven concrete piles. Permanent impact to the tributary is reduced by the longer spans which
require that only 12 supporting piles (for 1 bent) be placed within the tributary. However the
lengthened spans do not allow top-down construction, thereby creating the need for a temporary
work bridge. A 25' wide temporary work bridge with seven 25' x 64' long fingers is proposed
approximately 6' east of the permanent structure. Vertical clearances for the permanent and
temporary bridges are 10' and 3' respectively.
Anticipated Impacts
•
The construction of the 52' x 682' concrete bridge will eliminate 161 square feet of public
trust waters/shallow water habitat and shade 5250 square feet of public trust waters. The
placement of six bents within the bottomland located adjacent to the tributary will result in the
filling of 970 square feet of freshwater wetlands. The installation of a work bridge will cause the
temporary shading of 4375 square feet of public trust waters.

TO: Doug Huggett, DCM Major Permit Processing Coordi ator
FROM: John A. Thayer Jr. AICP, NE DCM District Planner
SUBJECT: Major Permit Request (STP-1152(4) & TIP-U3449) by CDOT, To
Construct A Bridge Over A Tributary Of Knobbs Creek, North of US
Hwy 17 Business/Halstead Blvd. Intersection, Elizabeth City,
Pasquotank County
DATE: March 11, 2002
Consistency Determination: The proposal is consistent w/not in conflict the Elizabeth City
Land Use Plan, certified by the CRC on Sept. 23, 1994.
This request involves construction of a 52' x 682' bridge over a 100' wide tributary to Knobbs
Creek and associated wetlands located 3/10ths of a mile north of US Business 17's intersection
w/Halstead Blvd. within the Elizabeth City's Extra-territorial Jurisdiction Boundary (ETJ). The
project is part of the Elizabeth City by-pass project. Anticipated impacts from the proposal
includes: the elimination of 161 sf. of Public Trust Water AEC; the shading of an additional
5,250 sf. Public Trust Water AEC; and the filling of 970 sf. of freshwater wetlands.
Basis for Determination: The Land Classification Map designation for this project area is
"Developed". Other text policy on page 95 notes that AEC properties also qualify for the
"Conservation" classification. Applicable policy includes the following:
II-G-2-b. Policy Statements: Natural Resources: (page 75)
(1) Elizabeth City believes that the statutory Areas of Environmental Concern
(AECs) which occur within its jurisdiction. ...should be protected from undue
encroachment in order to preserve their natural and important ecological
functions.
(2) The City believes that any development permitted must conform to State, Local
and Federal environmental regulations and not cause a degradation or
irreversible damage to the sensitive estuarine system.

Dear Mr. Bell:
SUBJECT: Proposed Improvements to Halstead Boulevard,
Pasquotank County; Federal Aid No. STP-1152(4); State
Project No. 8.2110201; TIP No. U-3449.
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide expedient access to residential and
commercial districts in Elizabeth City from the Elizabeth City Bypass, which is currently under
construction. Completion of the project will also provide equally convenient access to the
bypass for travel out of the immediate Elizabeth City area for those who want to avoid more
congested urban routes. Northbound traffic on the new US 17 bypass could access the
downtown area by exiting at the proposed Halstead Boulevard interchange. Southbound traffic
on the bypass may choose to exit here as well if the destination is south and west Elizabeth City.
Similarly, local traffic enroute to points south or north of Elizabeth City may choose to use the
Halstead Blvd. extension to gain access to the more efficient freeway facility rather than
traveling along existing urban routes.
The project will result in the construction of a new section of roadway from the existing
western terminus of Halstead Boulevard to a proposed interchange with the Elizabeth City
Bypass. The project is approximately 5.8 km (3.6 mi) in length, more than 70% of which will
cross open farm fields. The project is designed as a four-lane divided facility with a 16.0-foot
median.
The project will cross one jurisdictional wetland near the eastern terminus of the project.
This wetland is a bottomland community associated with the proposed crossing of an unnamed
tributary to Knobbs Creek. The upland fringes and upper reaches of the floodplain are vegetated
with sycamore (Platanus occidentalis),red maple, ironwood(Carpinus caroliniana) and tulip
poplar(Liriodendron tulipifera), along with privet(Ligustrum sinense), greenbrier(Smilax spp.),
grapevine (Vitis rotundifolia),honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) and giant cane. In the wetter

portions of the floodplain bald cypress(Taxodium distichum),tupelo (Nyssa aquatica), swamp
gum (N. sylvatica. var. N lora), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica)and swamp white oak
(Quercus bWora) are abundant. Red maple and swamp chestnut oak(Q. michauxii) are
common,but not co-dominants. This community will be bridged in its entirety from high ground
to high ground. Additionally, a temporary work bridge, instead of a fill causeway, will be
utilized for construction of the permanent structure. Both the new structure and the temporary
work bridge are approximately 227.0 meters(744.5 feet) in length.
It should be noted that the project also crosses an agricultural drainage that ties into a
natural drainage just"downstream" of the project. This area has been channelized heavily in the
past and discussions with various members of the regulatory community have indicated that the
water quality within the immediate area could be improved by providing a vegetated buffer from
the edge of the crossing to the nearest tree line downstream of the pipe crossing. The vegetated
buffer will be 50.0 feet wide on each side of the channel and will run continuously for
approximately 200.0 meters (656.0 feet)to the tree line. The buffer will be planted with a
mixture of river birch Betula nigra, sycamore Platanus occidentalis,willow oak Quercus
phellos, and green ash Fraxinus pennsylvanica.
It is anticipated that this project will be authorized by Nationwide Permit No. 14. Please
find attached a completed Pre-construction Notification Form along with the appropriate permit
drawings. By copy of this letter,the NCDOT is also requesting that the North Carolina Division
of Water Quality issue the appropriate Section 401 Water Quality Certification. If you have any
questions, please don't hesitate to call Mr. Lindsey Riddick of my staff at(919) 733-7844,

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
Wetland will be bridged in its entirety. In addition, instead of using a temporary earthen
Causeway to construct the permanent structure, a temporary work bridge will be used.
Impacts to intermittent channel are limited to the minimum number necessary for the crossing.
The remainder of the channel downstream of the crossing to the nearest tree line will be buffered
by a new forested buffer provided by NCDOT.
Page 7 of 13

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE — In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
1, Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
• of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
Mitigation is proposed for the piping of 164 feet of intermittent stream channel. The
NCDOT will provide a vegetated buffer for 50.0 feet on each side of the existing channel
from the end of the proposed pipe to the nearest tree line. This will provide a continuous
forested buffer to filter runoff for approximately 656.0 feet. This is detailed on page 2 of the
permit application cover letter.
Page 8 of 13

2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested(square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested(acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federal/state/local)
land?
Yes X No ❑
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at(919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes X No ❑
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes X No ❑
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Page 9 of 13

Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other(please identify )?
Yes l No X If you answered "yes",provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* Impact Multiplier Required
(square feet) Mitigation
1 3
2 1.5
Total
* Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel;Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
If buffer mitigation is required,please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration/Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260.
XI. Stormwater(DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Project is a new location project. Presently, most of the surface area is not impervious. The
impervious surfaces added by construction of the project will be a small fraction of the total area
of the surrounding agricultural areas. However, in an effort to protect water quality,the NCDOT
will reforest a 50.0 foot buffer for a distance of approximately 640.0 feet downstream of an
agricultural channel crossing. This will provide a continuous vegetated buffer from theproposed
culvert outlet to the existing tree line.
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Page 10 of 13

XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules(15A NCAC 2H .0500)or any Buffer Rules?
Yes n No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

SUBJECT: NC DOT — Halstead Boulevard Extension Bridge Project
DATE: January 2, 2002
The North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries submits the following comments
pursuant to General Statute 113-131.
Knobbs Creek has been documented to function as a spawning and nursery area
for blueback herring and alewife. Other species such as white perch, yellow perch and
catfishes utilize the area as well.
The proposed project will result in a temporary work bridge being constructed so
that a permanent bridge can be built. The permanent bridge will be 52 ft by 682 ft
over a 100 ft wide tributary to Knobbs Creek.
The Division requests an inwater construction moratorium from February 15
through June 30. This will ensure the environmental integrity of the area is protected
during critical times of usage by the above mentioned species.

Dear Mr. Gilmore:
•
This letter is with reference to your application for a Coastal Area Management Act
Major Development permit to construct proposed improvements to Halstead Boulevard, T.I.P.
No. U-3449, in Pasquotank County.
Although processing of the application is nearing completion, additional time is needed
for this office to complete the review and make a decision on your request. Therefore, it is
necessary that the standard review time be extended. An additional 75 days is provided by G.S.
113A-122(c) which would make May 9, 2002 the new deadline for reaching a decision on your
request. However, we expect to take action prior to that time and will do so as soon as possible.
In the interim, if you have any question on the status of your application, please do not hesitate to
contact this office.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Gilmore:
The NC Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for
State approval for development of property located north of the US 17 Business/Halstead
Boulevard intersection in Elizabeth City, Pasquotank County, at an unnamed tributary to Kobbs
Creek. It was received on December 10, 2001, and appears to be adequate for processing at
this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is February 23, 2002. 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.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted
by the appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and
notify me in writing if you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from
reviewing agencies.
Sincerely,
M. Edward Harrell

Dear Mr. Gilmore:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application
on November 7, 2001, for State approval for the development of the referenced project.
An initial screening of the submittal package has been conducted. This revealed certain
deficiencies, which must be corrected before the application package can be accepted as
complete. To assist you in expediting the permitting process as much as possible, I am
notifying you of these deficiencies immediately so that they can be quickly corrected to
facilitate the detailed review by the Field Representative.
I am returning the original application package so that the needed changes can be made,
but will retain a copy so that the Field Representative can commence the detailed review.
Please understand that the subsequent detailed review may reveal additional areas where
further information or documentation is required to demonstrate compliance with the
rules directly applicable to the proposed development. If this occurs, you will be notified
of such issues separately by the Field Representative.
Our initial screening has identified the following deficiencies:
1. Not all questions on the application have been answered, or indicated as "not
applicable." Please address the following items:
■ Form DCM-MP-1: Numbers 4.g, h, and j, need to be completed
concerning the CAMA Land Use Plan land classification of the site, how
the tract is zoned by local government, and who has performed the
archaeological assessment, respectively. For items under Number 5, the
indicated attached list of the names and addresses of adjacent riparian
landowners was not included, and the Statement of Compliance with the
NC Environmental Policy Act was not provided. In addition, the very last
part of the form for signature and certifications did not print out.
■ Form DCM-MP-2: In Number 3 for Shoreline Stabilization, "Not

Re: Halstead Avenue Extension, Federal-aid project
STP-1152(4), U-3449, archaeological site
testing, Pasquotank County, ER 99-7799
Dear Mr. Graf:
Thank you for your letter of November 1 9, 1998, transmitting the archaeological
testing report by Coastal Carolina Research (CCR) concerning the above project.
Evaluative testing was conducted at six archaeological sites--31PK88, 31PK89,
31PK90, 31PK92, 31PK93, and 31PK94. In each instance, CCR determined that
the site was either disturbed or would not otherwise be affected by the proposed
construction. Therefore, we recommend no further archaeological investigations in
connection with this project.
The report meets our office's guidelines and those of the Secretary of the Interior.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations
for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions
concerning the above comment, please contact Renee Gledhill-Earley, environmental
review coordinator, at 919/733-4763.
