SUBJECT: Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) Package for the following Natural
Resources Technical Report: NCDOT STIP No. BR-0102: Proposed Replacement of
Bridge No. 840037 on NC 268 (Lynchburg Road) over Big Creek, Stokes County, North
Carolina.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace Bridge No. 840037 on
NC 268 (Lynchburg Road) over Big Creek in Stokes County, North Carolina (Appendix A, Figure 1).
Below and attached are a brief description of the project, figures depicting all features, and appropriate
forms.
Initial natural resource investigations within the original Project Study Area (PSA) were completed by
Dewberry Engineers, Inc. on July 18 and September 20, 2019. In the early Spring of 2022, the PSA was
expanded along Lynchburg Road. Three Oaks Engineering, Inc. (Three Oaks) has been tasked with
completing natural resource surveys within the entire revised PSA. Three Oaks staff members Byron
Levan (MS) and Mark Guerard conducted the site investigation within the entire PSA on July 21, 2022.
No potential jurisdictional features were identified within the PSA expansion area along Lynchburg
Road and no changes were made to the previously delineated reaches of the Dan River and Big Creek in
the original PSA. Likewise, no potential jurisdictional wetlands were identified within the original PSA
footprint. In total, two potential jurisdictional features, Big Creek and the Dan River, were identified
within the PSA (Table 1; Appendix A, Figures 2-4). This project is located in the Roanoke River Basin
(United States Geological Survey [USGS] Hydrologic Unit Code [HUC] 03010103).
Neither North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) Stream Identification forms nor North
Carolina Stream Assessment Method (NCSAM) forms were completed for either Big Creek or the Dan
River since both resources exhibited characteristics indicative of high -quality perennial features. United
States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Determination forms and North Carolina Wetland
Assessment Method (NCWAM) forms were not required since no wetlands were present. However,
upland forms were completed that represent the PSA and confirm that there are no wetlands (Appendix
B). A USACE ORM Data Entry form, USACE Jurisdictional Determination Request form, USACE

Jurisdictional Determination Request
F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One)
❑✓ I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminary JD for the property identified herein.
A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may
be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property.
PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all
waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of
the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is
"preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do
not expire.
❑ I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein.
An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that
jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United
States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of
waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or
Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit
decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be
posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected
party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years
(subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05-
02).
❑ I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information
to inform my decision.
G. ALL REQUESTS

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option
to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an
informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their
characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a
Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre -
construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or
other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the
activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has
elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an
official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the
option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit
authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result
in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) the
applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms
and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can
accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has
determined to be necessary; (5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject
permit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance
of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit
authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the
review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and
waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance
or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7)
whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms
and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively
appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic
jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official
delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will
provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds
that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of
the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review
area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following
information:
