21.Comments:
0.035 acres of excavation will occur due to moving the ditch out for the road widening.The new ditch will be cut at same elevation as original ditch to
prevent further drainage effect.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation u
1.Avoidance and Minimization
la.Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
The excavation for ditch will only take place along the edge of the wetland,minimizing impacts.
1 b.Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
NCDOT's Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities will be employed in all facets of construction.
2.Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S.or Waters of the State
2a.Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S.or Waters of the State?
Yes No
