See attached plan sheets showing the work that has been completed and what is remaining. Currently we have 41
spans of the 47 removed and 17 bents of the 46 removed. The contractor can remove between 3 and 9 bents per week
based on rough weather or perfect weather conditions with piles precut. Therefore, let’s assume the contractor can
average 6 bents a week, it will take another 6 weeks for bent removal. In addition, the 6 spans (deck and rail) will take
about 3 weeks to remove.
We would anticipated being able to complete bridge demo by March 31, 2020.
Thank you,

Subject: B-4722B - Moratorium Extension
All,
The NCDOT would like to request an extension to the moratorium for B-4722B North River. Currently the moratorium
as listed in the permits doesn’t allow in water work between Feb. 15 and September 30. We are requesting an
allowance to March 31 to perform and complete in water work of removal of all existing bridge structure and existing
causeway as shown in the contract/permit drawings.
The contractor has had a few set backs at no fault of their own. The utility company Conterra (Broadplex) did not
complete the switch over to their new fiber line until 90 days after traffic was placed on the new structure, thus delaying
the date Carolina Bridge could begin demo. The location of the North River bridge is prone to strong winds and rough
water, slowing the demo for safety of the workers. In addition, new piles not shown in the contract plans have been
found under the existing causeway that will have to be removed increasing the amount of work.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you,
Brad McMannen, PE
