Attention: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer, NCDOT Coordinator
Subject: Proposed maintenance improvements to structures conveying an unnamed
tributary to Castle Creek on SR 1322 (McGehees Road) in Person County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace the
pipes conveying an unnamed tributary to Castle Creek on SR 1322 (McGehees Road) in
Person County (Figure 1 and Figure 2). Information concerning this activity is provided
below:
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Site 1 - Waters of the U.S.
Maintenance activities at this site will impact an unnamed perennial tributary to Castle
Creek [NCDENR-DWQ Index No. 22-58-13, Best Usage Classification C] (Figure 3) in
the Roanoke River Basin. The existing structures that convey the creek include
2@72"x48" corrugated metal pipe arches that are 41 feet long (Photographs 1 and 2).
Please note that the existing structures are undersized, have rusted out underneath, and
are perched at the outlet.
The NCDOT proposes to replace the existing structures with 2@81"x59" corrugated
metal pipe arches that are 60 feet long. Please note that there is bedrock in the area of this
crossing. This bedrock may affect the ability of the NCDOT to properly bury these pipes
during construction of the site. The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the work
zone during the construction of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of
sandbags in the creek at the upstream and downstream limits of construction. Once the
stream has been dewatered, the pipes will be replaced. Permanent impacts at the site
associated with the replacement of the structures (19 ft) and minimal amounts of rip rap
to protect the structures (20 ft) totals 39 linear feet existing channel impacted. The work
zone will be dewatered for approximately 5 days. Temporary concurrent impacts to the
stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of 39 linear feet of stream. The
sandbags will be removed after construction.

Riparian Buffer
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is NOT subject
to Riparian Buffer Rules as this project site is located within the Roanoke River Basin.
Therefore, the construction of the project at Site 1 will not result in impacts to protected
riparian buffers.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands and surface waters not affected by the project will be protected
from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of
construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands or near surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at jurisdictional
sites. Strict enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices
for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during project
construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces and the
Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal impacts
to waters of the United States. Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the
maximum extent possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts,
compensatory mitigation for stream and wetland impacts will not be provided for this
project.
Protected Species
Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed
Endangered and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and
Section 9 of the ESA. As of January 29, 2003, there is one federally protected species
listed for Person County: dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon). The stream at
this site is a perennial stream. However it is located within the Roanoke River Basin.
No dwarf wedge mussels are known to exist within this river basin. Therefore, a
Biological Conclusion of No Effect has been rendered for this species.
Summary
The NCDOT proposes to replace the existing structures with 2@81"x59" corrugated
metal pipe arches that are 60 feet long. Please note that there is bedrock in the area of this
crossing. This bedrock may affect the ability of the NCDOT to properly bury these pipes
during construction of the site. The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the work
zone during the construction of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of
sandbags in the creek at the upstream and downstream limits of construction. Once the
stream has been dewatered, the pipes will be replaced. Permanent impacts at the site
associated with the replacement of the structures and minimal amounts of rip rap to
protect the structures include 39 linear feet existing channel impacted. The work zone
will be dewatered for approximately 5 days. Temporary concurrent impacts to the stream
from this activity will result in the dewatering of 39 linear feet of stream. The sandbags will
be removed after construction.
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is NOT subject
to Riparian Buffer Rules as this project site is located within the Roanoke River Basin.
Therefore, the construction of the project at Site 1 will not result in impacts to protected
riparian buffers.
Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 3 and NWP 33. Additionally, this application provides notification to the
NCDWQ as Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3376 and No. 3366
will be utilized for construction of this project. The NCDOT will comply with all
applicable NWP and WQC conditions. A pre-construction notification is attached with
this request. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact
Ms. Heather Montague at (919) 560-6081.

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 detennining 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
