PROJECT SUMMARY: Department of Transportation proposes the replacement and upgrading of bridge #17 over. Mott's Creek and its approaches. NC DOT SR 1100 Page 2 9. PROTECT 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. Molt'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 IlVIPACTS 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. Submitted by: T.

NCDOT has not yet included this permit in the construction contract. Permit Condition No. 2 imposes a construction moratorium on excavation and filling from February 1 through September 30 of any year. This means that site work can only be conducted during four months of any given year. We have been informed by our design staff that the construction can be completed in six consecutive months. With this moratorium, the work would have to be suspended after four months, and construction would be resumed the following year. In our opinion, it would be more prudent to complete the site work once it is initiated. Disruption of the site on two separate occasions may do more damage to local aquatic resources than a single complete construction phase. we hereby request a modification of this construction moratorium to extend from February 1 through August 1. This would allow us six months to complete the construction of the new bridge in one phase. If this modification is issued, we expect to begin construction on August 2, 1995 and complete any activities requiring excavation or filling by January 30, 1996.
