No. 17BP.7.R.73 N/A Federal Permit Required? County: Guilford Document: Not Listed Funding: � State ❑ Federal ❑ Yes ❑ No Permit Type.• To be determined Project Description: NCDOT's Division 7 proposes to replace Bridge No. 254 on SR 3121 (Ferguson Road) over an Unnamed Tributary of the South Prong of Stinking Quarter Creek in Guilford County. Bridge No. 254 was built in 1957, and is considered to be functionally obsolete. There may be minor ditch-line impacts. An off-site detour is to be used during construction. The proposed project measures approximately 634 feet (0.120 mile) long by a proposed ROW width of 100 feet. Based on these measurements, the Area of Potential Effects (APE) measures approximately 63,400 square feet ar about 1.46 acres, inclusive of the existing roadway and structure. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: A map review and site iile search was conducted at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) on Thursday, August 8, 2013. An archaeological survey at this particular bridge location has never been conducted, and no archaeological sites have been recorded within one-half (1/2) mile of the proposed project. Digital copies of HPO's maps (Kimesville Quadrangle) as well as the HPOWEB GIS Service (http://gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/) were last reviewed on Thursday, August 8, 2013. There are no known historic architectural resources located within the project area that may have intact archaeological deposits within the footprint of the proposed project. In addition, topographic maps, historic maps (NCMaps website), USDA soil survey maps, and aerial photographs were utilized and inspected to gauge environmental factors that may have contributed to historic or prehistoric settlement within the project limits, and to assess the level of modern, slope, agricultural, hydrological, and other erosive-type disturbances within and surrounding the archaeological APE. Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicting that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE: This is a State-funded project that may or may not require a Federal permit and permanent or temporary easements. Whether a Federal permit will be required was not conveyed with the information provided for the project. At this time, there appears to be no Federal connection for this project; NC GS 121-12a does not apply since there are no eligible of potentially eligible (i.e. National Register-listed) archaeological resources located within the project's Area of Potential Effects (APE) that would require our attention. Existing ROW appears to measure approximately 60 feet. Therefore, there may be impacts up to 20 feet beyond the existing ROW along the project corridor. From an environmental perspective, the APE consists of the rolling and undulating terrain of the North Carolina Piedmont, and is composed entirely of Cecil sandy clay loam, 2-6% slopes, eroded (CeB2), Cecil sandy clay loam, 6-10% slopes, "No ARCHAEOLOGYSURVEYREQUIRED " farm for Minor Transportation Projects as Qualified in the 2007 Programmatic Agreement. 1 of 2 Project Tracking No.: 13-07-0039 eroded (CeC2), and Madison sandy loam, 15-35% slopes (MaE). Current soil conditions (i.e. eroded) and topography would not be conducive to containing intact archaeological materials. The Office of State Archaeology (OSA) reviewed a similar bridge replacement project approximately 1.5 miles downstream from Bridge No. 254 on the South Prong of Stinkin� Quarter Creek (ER 08-2554) for possible archaeological impacts; it was subsequently cleared by OSA stating a low probability for containing intact archaeological deposits. Overall, the project corridor is unlikely to contain significant cultural, archaeological, or historical resources. Based on the information above, there should be no archaeological survey required for this project. If design plans change, then additional consultation regarding archaeology will be required. At this time, no further archaeological work is recommended. If archaeological materials are uncovered during project activities, then such resources will be dealt with according to the procedures set forth for "unanticipated discoveries," to include notification of NCDOT's Archaeology Group.
