RE-SCOPING OF B-2506
AGENDA
. Introductions (Michele James, Project Planning Engineer)
. Project Overview (Michele James)
Project Description (TIP Project No. B-2506)
Replacement of Bridge No.8 on SR 1627 over Brown Creek; Anson County; Federal Aid
Project No. BRZ-1627(1); State Project No. 8.2651301
Project Status
On April 30, 1998, a meeting was held between Roadway Design, Federal Highway
Administration (FHW A), and Planning and Environmental representatives. After some
discussion, it was the consensus of the group that due to changes in personnel at the Pee
Dee Wildlife Refuge and constraints associated with the project, another scoping meeting
be held.
Project History
On November 25, 1997, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), North
Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT), North Carolina Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO), and the FHW A met to discuss alternatives for project B-2506. At this
meeting, the USFWS expressed the need to remove the bridge and embankment for
SR 1627 and restore the floodplain of Brown Creek to its natural condition. To do this,
removing SR 1627 between SR 1634 and SR 1649 from the State Highway System
would be necessary. It is NCDOT's understanding that the USFWS owns all of the
property adjacent to this section of SR 1627.
..
A couple options for removing Bridge No.8 and its embankment and restoring the
floodplain of Brown Creek to its natural condition were also discussed.
They are as follows:
(1) The NCDOT and USFWS would cooperatively develop a restoration plan.
After removing SR 1627 from the State Highway System, NCDOT would
remove the bridge and the embankments that are in the floodplain. In
cooperation with the USFWS, NCDOT would restore the floodplain to natural
condition and by that create a wetland and stream restoration mitigation bank
within the Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge. NCDOT and USFWS would
include preservation of the archaeological site in any restoration plans.
NCDOT would use this mitigation bank to mitigate impacts associated with
other projects in the region.
(2) The USFWS could request removal of SR 1627 from the State Highway
System. Once NCDOT removed SR 1627 from the State Highway System the
Right-Of-Way reverts to the adjacent property owners. Therefore, the USFWS
would become the owner of the facility. The USFWS would then be free to
restore the floodplain to its natural condition by removing the bridge and the
embankment.
In a letter on December 16, 1997 from the FHW A to the USFWS, the process for
removing SR 1627 between SR 1634 and SR 1648 from the State Highway System was
given. The letter also noted that if this sectionofSR 1627 was not removedJrom the
State Highway System, replacement or closure of the bridge would be necessary.
A December 18, 1997 letter from the USFWS to NCDOT proposed the following:
(1) NCDOT abandon SR 1627 between SR 1634 and 1650
(2) NCDOT remove the existing bridge and road from the floodplain of Brown
Creek
(3) NCDOT return natural contours and functions to the project area
(4) The USFWS proposed to maintain the upland portions ofSR 1627 as part of
the refuge road system.
(5) The USFWS proposed that the Corps of Engineers, NCDOT and
NCWRC explore the possibility of credit for the wetland restoration and
enhancement.
This letter also stated that the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) supported
removal of the bridge and roadway to stabilize the archaeological site.
Then on February 18, 1998, an on-site meeting and field review was conducted by
NCDOT mitigation specialist Robin Little. Representatives of the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (COE), USFWS, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-
Division of Water Quality (DENR-DWQ), NCWRC, FHWA, and the Pee Dee Wildlife
Refuge were invited. Scott McLendon of the COE, Cyndi Bell ofDWQ, David Cox of
NCWRC, Laura Fogo and Scott Lanier of the Pee Dee WRlUSFWS, and Anson County
'o'
representatives attended. During the meeting, it became apparent that the local
opposition from the County had reversed the Wildlife Refuges' support for removal of
the bridge and roadway as a mitigation partnership between USFWS and NCDOT. While
the previous Refuge Manager, Mike lelmini, had promoted the bridge and partial
roadway removal as a wetland mitigation project in recent meetings with NCDOT, he
apparently understated the cooperative nature of the Refuge with the local farmers
farming the Refuge lands under long-term lease agreements. His transfer apparently
resulted in a reversal of the Pee Dee Wildlife Refuge's position which was communicated
to the group on the morning of the field review. The representatives from Anson County
apologized for the timing of the situation, and indicated that the County could not support '
the removal of the bridge and causeway, because the local farmers use the road to
transport livestock to Norman, NC.
An April 30, 1998 letter from Steve Carpenter, the Anson County Manager, stated that
their initial reaction to closing SR 1627 was one of opposition and gave several reasons
why. They are as follows:
(1) The road is used by citizens that liVe in Ansonville and travel to Wadesboro on
a regular basis
(2) Emergency Services uses the road when Highway 52 is blocked
(3) SR 1627 provides the best route north when the other main roads are closed
(4) The county is in the final stages of land acquisition for the County Airport
expansion. The traffic on the road may be increased because the facility is
located off Pinkston River Road and is planned to be primarily developed as
an industrial park location.
Proposed Planning Document
An Environmental Assessment (EA) will be completed for the project.
The EA is scheduled for completion in January 1999.
Alternatives
(1) Existing location replacement (road closure)
(2) Bridge replacement with slight shift in alignment (road closure)

Attached is a revised scoping sheet which includes
additional information provided at the scoping meeting.
The Hydraulics Unit recommends a 140-foot long spanning
structure to replace the existing bridge. Replacement of the
structure in its present location appears to be the best
location. Road closure is a viable and preferable option of
handling traffic during construction du~ to the low traffic
yolumes and the availability of suitable detour routes in~he
area. The division engineer concurs with road closure during
-
construction. In addition, the project area is surrounded by
wetlands, and efforts should be made to avoid and minimize
wetland takings; replacement of the bridge at its existing
location would minimize such impacts.
The resource agencies described the project area to be
designated as a North Carolina Natural Heritage Area. It was
also mentioned that the area was considered o~e of th~ ee3r
examples of a swamp forest in North Carolina.
,.
~
During a recent site visit, a staff archaeologist
examined hand hewn log structures submerged at and around the
existing bridge site. These structures are suspected to be
of historical significance, possibly a gold mining facility,
and will require further investigation.
A list of alternatives to be studied is as follows:
Alternate 1 - Replace the bridge at its existing location.
The road will be closed during construction
and traffic will be detoured along existing
roads.
Alternate 2 - Replace the bridge on new location immediately
west of its present location. Traffic could
be maintained on the existing structure during
the construction period.
Alternate 1 is the preferred alternate at this time
since traffic can be detoured during construction and because
it will minimize the amount of impact to surrounding wetland
communities. It is also anticipated that Alternate 1 will
cost the least to construct.
It is anticipated that a Section 4(f) document will need
to be prepared for this project since the project is located
within the Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge. Compliance with
Section 4(f) will necessitate the documentation of avoidance
and minimization of harm to the refuge. (

The meeting floor was then opened for input from other DOT representatives and
environmental agencies. The following points summarizes issues discussed:
."..
The Refuge flreters.to-replace the briq~~~8.the existing location, with road
closure. ' ." ,'"
Mitigation to the archaeological site needs to be addressed along with the
hydrological needs of the bridge. Consideration should be given to the
entire stream function.
Damage to the archaeological site should be minimized and data recovery
will be needed to serve as mitigation.
It was suggested that a more detailed traffic study is needed, to assess the
seasonality of the traffic.
It was noted that a " no action" alternate would have an effect on the
archaeological site because of the existing scouring problem.
It was also requested that the project use long spans for the bridge, allow
for sufficient light penetration, facilitate wildlife passage, and not use rip
rap.
Cyndi Bell prefers no on-site detour be built and wants detail design in the
document (amount offill in repaved area).
If additional right of way is required, NCDOT will coordinate with the
regional office in Atlanta, Georgia. However, NCDOT can obtain a
"SI'ecial Use Permit" from the Refuge for temporary construction
easements. Betty Yancey stated they will need approximately 10 months
to coordinate with the Atlanta Office.
It was noted that at a previous meeting, a spill along the side of the road
was disclosed and if it has to removed, NCDOT will need to discuss how
it will be moved.
Sections 106, 110 and 4( f) will have to be addressed in the document for
the archaeological site and the refuge property.
An Individual Permit will be required for this project.
The EA will evaluate five alternatives, with 2 sub alternatives. They are
as follows:

Alternate 1- Replace in the existing location-road closure
Alternate lA- Replace in the existing location-road closure; raIse the grade and
add culverts in the floodplain
Alternate 2- Replace bridge slightly to the west-road closure
Alternate 2A- Replace bridge slightly to the west-road closure; raise the grade

Roadway Design will have costs and designs ready by the end of
September, 1998. A meeting will then be scheduled with Anson County
Representatives and the Federal agencies to discuss alternatives.
