A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III B.1 for the tributary, Section 111.112 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III B3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III C below 1 Characteristics of non-TNWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNW (i) General Area Conditions Watershed size c Drainage area MecLi Average annual rainfall inches Average annual snowfall inches (u) Physical Characteristics: (a) Relationship with TNW ?

(Y/N) Size (in acres) Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed C SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TNW For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e g between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW) Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplam is not solely determinative of significant nexus Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook Factors to consider include, for example • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and l?fecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TN W? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW? Note the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below 1 Significant nexus findings for non-RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III D 2 Significant nexus findings for non-RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non-RPW flows directly or indirectly into TNWs Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III D 3 Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III D D DETERMINATIONS OF JURISDICTIONAL FINDINGS THE SUBJECT WATERSIWETLANDS ARE (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY) I TNWs and Adjacent Wetlands Check all that apply and provide size estimates in review area Q TNWs linear feet width (ft), Or, acres Q Wetlands adjacent to TNWs acres 2 RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs ® Tributaries of TNWs where tributaries typically flow year-round are jurisdictional Provide data and rationale indicating that tributary is perennial Q Tributaries of TNW where tributaries have continuous flow "seasonally" (e g , typically three months each year) are jurisdictional Data supporting this conclusion is provided at Section III B Provide rationale indicating that tributary flows seasonally Provide estimates for jurisdictional waters in the review area (check all that apply) 1" Tributary waters 125 linear feet 12 width (ft) [j Other non-wetland waters acres Identify type(s) of waters Non-RPWs8 that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs D Waterbody that is not a TNW or an RPW, but flows directly or indirectly into a TNW, and it has a significant nexus with a TNW is jurisdictional Data supporting this conclusion is provided at Section III C Provide estimates for junsdictional waters within the review area (check all that apply) Q Tributary waters linear feet width (ft) [l Other non-wetland waters acres Identify type(s) of waters Wetlands directly abutting an RPW that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs © Wetlands directly abut RPW and thus are jurisdictional as adjacent wetlands Q Wetlands directly abutting an RPW where tributaries typically flow year-round Provide data and rationale indicating that tributary is perennial in Section III D 2, above Provide rationale indicating that wetland is directly abutting an RPW Q Wetlands directly abutting an RPW where tributaries typically flow "seasonally " Provide data indicating that tributary is seasonal in Section III B and rationale in Section III D 2, above Provide rationale indicating that wetland is directly abutting an RPW Provide acreage estimates for junsdictional wetlands in the review area acres Wetlands adjacent to but not directly abutting an RPW that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs.

Project Description: NCDOT will replace Bridge No 51 on SR 1424 (John's River Road) over Parks Creek in Burke County The bridge will be replaced with a new approximately seven feet higher than the existing The new bridge will be located approximately 50 feet south of the existing The new bridge will be approximately 100 feet in length The proposed structure shall be of sufficient width to accommodate a 22- foot travelway and minimum 3 foot offsets on each side The actual width will take into account the use of a cored slab bridge and stripping to accommodate the curved alignment The approach roadway will consist of two 11-foot travel lanes and shoulder widths of 5 feet Shoulder widths will vary from eight feet to eleven feet where guardrail is warranted Traffic will be detoured off-site, along surrounding roads, during construction Total project length will be approximately 950 feet B. Purpose and Need: Bridge No 51 has a sufficiency rating of 53 2 out of 100 This bridge was added to the TIP in 1998 when the sufficiency rating was 33 3 and the bridge was functionally obsolete Since that time, temporary repairs have been installed in order to keep the bridge open These repairs resulted in a higher sufficiency rating For these reasons, Bridge No 51 needs to be replaced C. Proposed Improvements: The following Type II improvements which apply to the project are circled Modernization of a highway by resurfacing, restoration, rehabilitation, reconstruction, adding shoulders, or adding auxiliary lanes (e g , parking, weaving, turning, climbing) a Restoring, Resurfacing, Rehabilitating, and Reconstructing pavement (3R and 4R improvements) b Widening roadway and shoulders without adding through lanes c Modernizing gore treatments d Constructing lane improvements (merges, auxiliary, and turn lanes) e Adding shoulder drains f Replacing and rehabilitating culverts, inlets, and drainage pipes, including safety treatments g Providing driveway pipes h Performing minor bridge widening (less than one through lane) Slide Stabilization Structural BMP's for water quality improvement 2 Highway safety or traffic operations improvement projects including the installation of ramp metering control devices and lighting a Installing ramp metering devices b Installing lights c Adding or upgrading guardrail d Installing safety barriers including Jersey type barriers and pier protection e Installing or replacing impact attenuators f Upgrading medians including adding or upgrading median barriers g Improving intersections including relocation and/or realignment h Making minor roadway realignment i Channelizing traffic J Performing clear zone safety improvements including removing hazards and flattening slopes k Implementing traffic aid systems, signals, and motorist aid 1 Installing bridge safety hardware including bridge rail retrofit O Bridge rehabilitation, reconstruction, or replacement or the construction of grade separation to replace existing at-grade railroad crossings a Rehabilitating, reconstructing, or replacing bridge approach slabs b Rehabilitating or replacing bridge decks c Rehabilitating bridges including painting (no red lead paint) scour repair, fender systems, and minor structural improvements O Replacing a bridge (structure and/or fill) 4 Transportation corridor fringe parking facilities 5 Construction of new truck weigh stations or rest areas 6 Approvals for disposal of excess right-of-way or for joint or limited use of right- of-way, where the proposed use does not have significant adverse impacts 7 Approvals for changes in access control 8 Construction of new bus storage and maintenance facilities in areas used predominantly for industrial or transportation purposes where such construction is not inconsistent with existing zoning and located on or near a street with adequate capacity to handle anticipated bus and support vehicle traffic 9 Rehabilitation or reconstruction of existing rail and bus buildings and ancillary facilities where only minor amounts of additional land are required and there is not a substantial increase in the number of users 10 Construction of bus transfer facilities (an open area consisting of passenger shelters, boarding areas, kiosks, and related street improvements) when located in a commercial area or other high activity center in which there is adequate street capacity for projected bus traffic 2 11 Construction of rail storage and maintenance facilities in areas used predominantly for industrial or transportation purposes where such construction is not inconsistent with existing zoning and where there is no significant noise impact on the surrounding community 12 Acquisition of land for hardship or protective purposes, advance land acquisition loans under section 3(b) of the UMT Act Hardship and protective buying will be permitted only for a particular parcel or a limited number of parcels These types of land acquisition qualify for a CE only where the acquisition will not limit the evaluation of alternatives, including shifts in alignment for planned construction projects, which may be required in the NEPA process No project development on such land may proceed until the NEPA process has been completed 13 Acquisition and construction of wetland, stream and endangered species mitigation sites 14 Remedial activities involving the removal, treatment or monitoring of soil or groundwater contamination pursuant to state or federal remediation guidelines D. Special Protect Information: Estimated Costs: Total Construction $ 575,000 Right of Way $ 14,000 Total $ 589,000 Estimated Traffic: Current - 200 vpd Year 2025 - 400 vpd TTST - 1 % Dual - 2% Proposed Typical Cross Section: The approach roadway will consist of two 11-foot travel lanes and shoulder widths of 5 feet Shoulder widths will be increased by at least 3 feet where guardrail is warranted Design Speed: 60 mph Design Exceptions: A design exception is anticipated for speed and horizontal stopping sight distance Functional Classification: 3 SR 1424 is classified as a Rural Local Route in the Statewide Functional Classification system Division Office Comments: The Division 13 Construction Engineer supports the chosen alternate and proposed method for detouring traffic during construction Bridge Demolition: The superstructure of Bridge No 51 consists of a timber floor on I-beams with an asphalt-weanng surface The substructure is composed entirely of timber, which can be removed without any falling debris Therefore, Bridge No 51 will be removed without dropping components into Waters of the United States during construction Alternatives Discussion: (including Studied Offsite Detour Evaluation) According to the Transportation Director for Burke County Schools, there are no school bus crossings over Bridge No 51 An alternate route would not affect their operations Burke County Emergency Management Services states an alternate route can be used during construction The studied detour route utilizes SR 1405, SR 1423, and SR 1438 This route results in 2 4 miles of additional travel "Do-nothing" is not practical, requiring the eventual closing of the road as the existing bridge completely deteriorates Rehabilitation of the existing deteriorating bridge is neither practical nor economical 4 E.

following preliminary comments on the subject project Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the National Environmental Policv Act (42 U S C 4332(2)(c)) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat 401 as amended 16 US C 661-667d) follows Our standard recommendations for bridge replacement projects of this scope are as 1 We generally prefer spanning structures Spanning structures usually do not require work within the stream and do not require stream channel realignment The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges allows for human and wildlife passage beneath the structure, does not block fish passage, and does not block navigation by canoeists and boaters 2 Bridge deck drains should not discharge directly into the stream 3ridge Memo iay 3 =1302 3 Live concrete should not be allowed to contact the water in or entering into the stream 4 If possible, bridge supports (bents) should not be placed in the stream 5 If temporary access roads or detours are constructed they should be removed back to original ground elevations immediately upon the completion of the project Disturbed areas should be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and native tree species should be planted with a spacing of not more than 10'x10' If possible, when using temporary structures the area should be cleared but not grubbed Clearing the area with cham saws, mowers, bush-hogs, or other mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat mtact, allows the area to revegetate naturally and minimizes disturbed soil 6 A clear bank (nprap free) area of at least 10 feet should remain on each side of the steam underneath the bridge 7 In trout waters, the N C Wildlife Resources Commission reviews all U S Army Corps of Engineers nationwide and general `404' permits We have the option of requesting additional measures to protect trout and trout habitat and we can recommend that the project require an individual 404' permit 8 In streams that contain threatened or endangered species NCDOT biologist Mr Tim Savidge should be notified Special measures to protect these sensitive species may be required NCDOT should also contact the U S Fish and Wildlife Service for information on requirements of the Endangered Species Act as it relates to the project 9 In streams that are used by anadromous fish, the NCDOT official policy entitled "Stream Crossing Guidelines for Anadromous Fish Passage (May 12 1997) ' should be followed. 10 In areas with significant fisheries for sunfish, seasonal exclusions may also be recommended 11 Sedimentation and erosion control measures sufficient to protect aquatic resources must be implemented prior to any ground disturbing activities Structures should be maintained regularly, especially following rainfall events 12 Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control 13 All work in or adjacent to stream waters should be conducted in a dry work area Sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams, or other diversion structures should be used where possible to prevent excavation in flowing water 14 Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams 15 Only clean, sediment-free rock should be used as temporary fill (causeways), and should be removed without excessive disturbance of the natural stream bottom when construction is completed Bridge Memo 16 During subsurface investigations equipment should be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials If corrugated metal pipe arches. reinforced concrete pipes or concrete box culverts are used 1 The culvert must be designed to allow for aquatic life and fish passage Generally, the culvert or pipe invert should be buned at least 1 foot below the natural streambed (measured from the natural thalweg depth) If multiple barrels are required, barrels other than the base flow barrel(s) should be placed on or near stream bankfull or floodplatn bench elevation (similar to Lyonsfield design) These should be reconnected to floodplatn benches as appropnate This may be accomplished by utilizing sills on the upstream and downstream ends to restrict or divert flow to the base flow barrel(s) Silled barrels should be filled with sediment so as not to cause noxious or mosquito breeding conditions Sufficient water depth should be provided in the base flow barrel(s) during low flows to accommodate fish movement If culverts are longer than 40-50 linear feet, alternating or notched baffles should be installed to a manner that mimics existing stream pattern This should enhance aquatic life passage 1) by depositing sediments in the barrel, 2) by maintaining channel depth and flow regimes, and 3) by providing resting places for fish and other aquatic organisms In essence base flow barrel(s) should provide a continuum of water depth and channel width without substantial modifications of velocity 2 If multiple pipes or cells are used. at least one pipe or box should be designed to remain dry during normal flows to allow for wildlife passage 3 Culverts or pipes should be situated along the existing channel alignment whenever possible to avoid channel realignment Widening the stream channel must be avoided Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage 4 Riprap should not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the stream be-i in a manner that precludes aquatic life passage Bioengineering boulders or structures should be professionally designed sized, and installed In most cases, we prefer the replacement of the existing structure at the same location with road closure If road closure is not feasible. a temporary detour should be designed and located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing stream banks If the structure will be on a new alignment the old structure should be removed and the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplatn Approach fills should be removed down to the natural ground elevation The area should be stabilized with grass and planted with native tree species If the area reclaimed was previously wetlands, NCDOT should restore the area to wetlands If successful, the site may be utilized as mitigation for the subject project or other projects in the watershed Undue Memo Project specific comments N,is% f o ,uu- 1 Bridge No 26, NC 133
