Dear Ms. Beckwith:
The purpose of this permit modification is to account for utility work not previously
addressed in the original permit for Section R-2519A of the US 19E widening project that
extends from SR 1336 (Jack's Creek Road) to SR 1186 (US 19) west of Micaville. The
North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to widen US 19/US
19E from future I-26 (existing US 19-23) in Madison County to SR 1186 (US. 19) near
Micaville in Yancey County. The total length of the project (R-2518A, R-2518B & R-
2519A) is approximately 21 miles. The length of the R-2519A section is 7.4 miles. The

project will upgrade the existing two and three-lane principal arterial to a multi-lane
facility with partial access control.
In November 2010, the utility contractor for Burnsville notified NCDOT that there will
be utility impacts at permit sites 10, 15, & 16. Impacts will constitute open trenching to
relocate existing utility lines. NCDOT will have an inspector onsite during installation of
all sewer lines in jurisdictional areas to ensure compliance with Best Management
Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities. All work will be conducted in the
dry and follow Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters. All
impacts from this utility work are temporary impacts to surface waters and are within the
footprint of an already permitted impact.
Permit Site 10 - Utility Impacts: (See attached Plansheet 13) Permit Site 10 is located on
the right-side of Plansheet 13 with the temporary utility impacts in pink. The first pink
utility impact area has blue and green lines passing through it. The blue line is a 200mm
water line that crosses SR 1139/Cherry Lane and then McIntosh Branch. The creek
crossing occurs in an area that will be permanently impacted by construction of a culvert.
The green line is a 250mm sewer line that crosses SR 1139/Cherry Lane and McIntosh
Branch. Only a few feet separate the 200 mm water line from the 250 mm sewer line so
the impacts are combined. This action will result in 67.6 linear feet temporary utility
impacts.
The second pink utility impact area is located near the edge of Plansheet 13 and has a
blue line passing through it. The blue line is a 300mm water line that crosses a UT to
McIntosh Branch and then US 19E. The creek crossing occurs in a location that will be
permanently impacted by the construction of a culvert. This action will result in 20.3
linear feet temporary utility impacts.
Permit Site 15 - Utility Impacts: (See Plansheet 21-22) Permit Site 15 is located in the
lower center of Plansheet 21-22. The pink utility impact area has a green line passing
through it. The green line is a 200mm sewer line that runs parallel to US 19E, then
crosses Little Crabtree Creek and SR 1428. The creek crossing occurs in an area that will
be temporarily impacted by a culvert extension. This action will result in 21.7 linear feet
temporary utility impacts
Permit Site 16: (See Plansheet 21-22) Permit Site 16 is located in the upper center of
Plansheet 21-22. The pink utility impact area has a green line passing through it. The
green line is a 200mm sewer force main that crosses SR 1428, a UT to Little Crabtree
Creek and Little Crabtree Creek, and then runs parallel to US 19E. The stream crossings
occur in an area that will be temporarily impacted by a culvert extension. This action will
result in 29.2 linear feet of temporary utility impacts to a UT to Little Crabtree Creek and
34.1 linear feet of temporary utility impacts to Little Crabtree Creek.
Permit Sites 15 and 16 have trout moratoriums from January 1 to April 15. Permit Site 10
does not have a moratorium.
