STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION MICHAEL F. EASLEY GOVERNOR U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Regulatory Field Office 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road Suite 120 Raleigh, NC 27615 ATTN: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer NCDOT Coordinator June 27, 2003 030814 LYNDO TIPPETT SECRETARY WE60/ 406 jRoUp JWRQUALITYSEMON Subject: Nationwide 12, 23, and 33 application. Wake County, Replacement of Bridge No. 124 Over Perry Creek on SR 2006, Federal Aid Project No. BRZ-2006(1), State Project No. 8.2406901, TIP Project No. B-3529. Please find enclosed three copies of the project planning report for the above referenced project. We plan to replace Bridge No. 124 with an 105 ft (32 m) long bridge. The bridge will be phase-constructed beginning north of the existing structure to allow for maintenance of traffic on-site. The new roadway cross section will be 52 ft (16 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. In addition, sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the bridge. Approximately 0.25 ac of wetlands will be impacted by this project. Bridge Demolition The existing bridge is composed of concrete and timber. There is potential for components of the deck to be dropped into waters of the U.S. The resulting temporary fill associated with the concrete deck is approximately 33 yd3. This project can be classified as Case 2, which allows no work at all in the water during moratorium periods associated with fish migration, spawning, and larval recruitment into nursery areas. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission recommends an in-water work moratorium from February 15 to June 15. Temporary Causeways There will be 0.031 ac temporary impacts from the construction of temporary rock causeways in Perry Creek for the construction of Bridge No. 124. Temporary rock causeways will be required for construction of the interior bents in order to provide for construction access. The causeways will facilitate the construction of drilled shafts. The causeways will consist of plain Class II rip rap topped with a layer of Class B rip rap. Restoration Plan: No permanent fill will result from the subject activity. The materials used as temporary fill in the construction of the causeway will be removed. The temporary fill areas will be graded back to the original contours. Elevations and contours in the vicinity of the proposed causeways are available from the field survey notes. Schedule for Construction of Causeways: It is assumed that the Contractor will begin construction of the proposed causeways shortly after the date of availability for the project. The Let date is September 16, 2003 with a date of availability of October 19, 2003. Removal and Disposal: The causeways will be removed within 90 days of the completion of the deck slab for the structure. The temporary rock causeways will be removed by the Contractor using excavating equipment. All materials placed in the stream by the Contractor will be removed. The Class II rip rap that is removed may be used on end slopes where Class II rip rap is required at the discretion of the Engineer. All other materials removed by the Contractor will be disposed of at an off-site upland location. Utilities An existing water line will need to be relocated. The areas of waters of the U.S. to be disturbed will be limited to the minimum necessary to install the utility line. There will be no permanent fill in waters of the U.S. resulting from this relocation. Temporary impacts will result from trenching and laying the line across Perry Creek. As part of the waterline installation, approximately 20 linear ft (each side) of stream bank will be disturbed. The stream is approximately 30 ft wide at the point of crossing. This corresponds to a 600 ft2 (0.01 ac) disturbance area within the stream itself. The method of installation will be left up to the Contractor. It is assumed that the stream would be partially dammed to progressively open-cut L the stream and install the pipeline. Upon completing the installation across the stream, the dams would be removed and the stream would be returned to pre-construction grade, armored with Class H rip rap. The City of Raleigh-Utility Department (per Donna Jackson) does not allow for HDPE (boring underneath the creek); hence, we have been requested by them to open-cut the proposed water line. Federally-Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered, and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. As of January 29, 2003, the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) lists four federally protected species for Wake County (Table 1). Table 1. Federally-protected species for Wake County. Common Name Scientific Name Status Bald eagle Haliaeetus leucocephalus Threatened (proposed for delisting) Red-cockaded woodpecker Picoides borealis Endangered f wedgemussel k Alasmidonta heterodon Endangered sumac 7?Mhaux's Rhus michauxii Endangered Endangered: a taxon "in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Threatened: a taxon "likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range. A Biological Conclusion of "No Effect" was reached for these species as reflected in the attached CE dated April 2000. A re-survey for Michaux's sumac was conducted on August 17, 2001. No specimens of Michaux's sumac were found during this survey. A survey for dwarf wedgemussel was conducted on July 27, 1999. It was found that suitable habitat for dwarf wedgemussel is not present within this portion of Perry Creek. 3 Neuse Buffer Impacts This project is located in the Neuse River Basin; therefore the regulations pertaining to the Neuse River Buffer Rules will apply. The project consists of a bridge replacement and the construction of approximately 1,600 feet of roadway approach work. There will be impacts to the buffers due to bridge construction. No buffer impacts will occur from the roadway approach work. Impacts have been minimized. In addition, there will be no erosive velocities entering the buffers (Q10 2.0 ft3/s or less) and all flow will be diffuse. The impacts from bridge onstruction are 14,792 ft2 (9,171 W in Zone 1 and 5,621 ft in Zone 2) and thus allowable under the Neuse Buffer Rules. Therefore, no mitigation is required for this project. Regulatory Approvals Section 404 Permit: This project is being processed by the Federal Highway Administration as a "Categorical Exclusion" in accordance with 23 CFR 771.115(b). Therefore, we do not anticipate requesting an individual permit, but propose to proceed under a Nationwide 12, 23, and 33 as authorized by Nationwide Permits 12, 23, and 33 (FR number 10, pages 2020-2095; January 15, 2002). Section 401 Permit: We anticipate 401 General Certification numbers 3374, 3403, and 3366 will apply to this project. In accordance with 15A NCAC 211.0501(a) we are providing two copies of this application to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality, for their records. Riparian Buffer Certification: We request issuance of a Neuse River Riparian Buffer Certification from the DWQ for impacts to the Neuse Buffers in compliance with the Neuse River Buffer Rules.

Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: Adjacent land use to Perry Creek is dominated by an alluvial forest with excessive sediment deposition caused by upstream development. Wetland Page 6 of 133 pockets and a forested floodplain are located off of both the left and right banks. Residential neighborhoods, a private school, and a soccer complex dominate the land use in the vicinity of the project. 10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: Bridge No. 124 will be replaced with a 105-foot (32.0 m) long bridge north of the existing structure. The new bridge cross section will be 64 feet (19.5 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. Additionally, sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the bridge to comply with the City of Raleigh's sidewalk policy. The proposed bridge replacement will accommodate clearance for the City of Raleigh's proposed greenway located along Perry Creek. The clearance required for the greenway will increase the bridge length from 95 feet (29.0 m) to the proposed 105 feet (32.0 m). In addition to the replacement of Bridge No. 124, there will be approximately 800 feet (243.9 m) of new approach work from both east and west of the bridge. Equipment to be used during construction includes excavation equipment (dozers, backhoes, etc.) trucks, and other machinery necessary for the completion of bridge structures. 11.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Because the bridge will be widened to a multilane facilitv it will be necessarv to extend the bridge northeast over Perry Creek and into existing wetlands. Impacts are minimized and in large part avoided by replacing the bridge virtually within the footprint of the existing alignment. Page 9 of 133 A comprehensive alternatives analysis was completed to determine the most feasible location of the new bridge. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.

Green Sheet Categorical Exclusion Page 1 of 1 April 18, 2000 Wake Count Bridge No. 124 on SR 2006 Over Perm Creek Federal Project BRZ-2006 (1) State Project 8.2406901 TIP No. B-3529 Bridge No. 124 is located in Wake County over Perry Creek. It is programmed in the 2000-2006 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) as a bridge replacement project. This project is part of the Federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRRP) and has been classified as a "Categorical Exclusion". No substantial enviromnental impacts are expected. . 1. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS Bridge No. 124 will be replaced as recommended in Alternate 1 with a new 105-foot (32 m) long bridge. The new bridge will be phase constructed beginning north of the existing structure (see Figure 2). The new roadway cross section on the bridge will be 52 feet (15.8 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. The curb and gutter section will transition to a shoulder section on the roadway approaches. In addition, sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the bridge. Traffic will be maintained on the existing structure until 2'/z lanes are completed to the north side. Traffic will then be shifted to the north while the remainder of the bridge is built. The new roadway cross section will accommodate two lanes of traffic initially with the capacity to handle four lanes in the future. There will be approximately 800 feet (244 m) of new approach work to the east and 800 feet (244 m) of new approach work to the west. The roadway cross section on the immediate approaches will be 52 feet (15.8 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters for approximately 200 feet (60.9 m) on either side of the bridge. From this point, the approach roadway cross section will be 48 feet (14.6 m) wide plus 4-foot (1.2-m) paved shoulders on both sides of the roadway. The approach roadway cross section will then transition to the existing roadway width. The total shoulder width through this section of approach roadway will be 8 feet (2.4 m), including 4 feet (1.2 m) of paved shoulder and 4 feet (1.2 m) of grassed shoulder. Based on preliminary design, the design speed wilfbe approximately 50 mph (80 km/h). In addition, the proposed bridge replacement will accommodate clearance for the City of Raleigh's proposed greenway located along Perry Creek. The clearance required for the greenway will increase the bridge length from 95 feet (30 m) to the proposed 105 feet (32 m). The estimated cost of the project is $1,560,000 including $1,500,000 in construction costs and $60,000 in right of way costs. The estimated cost shown in the 2000-2006 TIP is $737,000. II. ANTICIPATED DESIGN EXCEPTIONS Based on preliminary analysis, a design exception will not be required for this project. III. EXISTING CONDITIONS SR 2006 (Perry Creek Road) is classified as an Urban Local Route in the Statewide Functional Classification System. SR 2006 connects US 401 with US 1 in the northeastern area of Raleigh. Currently the traffic volume is 9000 vehicles per day (VPD) and projected at 24,000 VPD for the year 2025. Approximately 1 percent of the traffic is truck-tractor semi-trailers (TTST) and 2 percent of the traffic is dual-tired vehicles (DT). The design hourly.volume is 9 percent and the directional split is 60 percent. There is a 45-mph (70-km/h) posted speed limit in the vicinity of the bridge. The existing bridge was completed in 1952. The bridge contains a four-span superstructure, including a concrete deck with timber girders.. The deck is 70 feet (21.3 m) long and 25 feet (7.6 m) wide. The substructure is composed of timber end and interior bents. There is approximately 15 feet (4.6 m) of vertical clearance between the floorbeams of the bridge.deck and streambed. There are two lanes of traffic on the bridge. According to Bridge Maintenance Unit records, the sufficiency rating of the bridge is 11.2 out of a possible 100. Presently the bridge is posted with weight restrictions of 17 tons for single vehicles and 24 tons for truck-tractor semi-trailers. Vertical alignment is good and horizontal alignment is fair in the bridge vicinity. The pavement width on the approaches to the existing bridge is 20 feet (6 m). Shoulders on the approaches of the bridge are approximately 4 feet (1.2.m) wide. The Traffic Engineering Branch indicates that 16 accidents have been reported during a recent three-year period in the vicinity of the project. The assortment of accidents occurred-due to a variety of reasons. None involved the bridge. There are 24 daily. school bus crossings over the studied bridge. According to the Transportation Director for Wake County, closing the road would be a major burden. Carolina Power and Light (CP&L) has multiple electrical lines along the south side of SR 2006. Cable Television cables are attached to the CP&L poles. In addition, the City of Raleigh has a 16-inch (40-cm) water line along the north side of SR 2006 crossing SR 2006 approximately 130 feet (40 m) west of the bridge. The City of Raleigh also owns a 30-inch (76-cm) sanitary sewer outfall line approximately 150 feet (45.7 m) east of the bridge. Also, Bell South owns underground cables along the south side of SR 2006. IV. PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES There are two "build" options considered in this document as follows: Alternate 1: (Recommended) Bridge No. 124 will be replaced with a 105-foot (32-m) long bridge. The bridge will be phase constructed beginning north of the existing structure to allow for maintenance of traffic on-site. The new roadway cross section will be 52 feet (15.8 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. In addition, sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the bridge. The design speed will be approximately 50 mph (80 km/h). Alternate 2: Bridge No. 124 would be replaced with a 105-foot (32-m) long bridge. The bridge would be phase constructed beginning north of the existing structure to allow for maintenance of traffic on-site. The new roadway cross section would be 64 feet (19.5 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. In addition, sidewalks would be constructed on both sides of the bridge. The design speed would be approximately 50 mph (80 km/h). "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. An alternative of providing a basic two-lane shoulder facility with sidewalk on the north side of the bridge was considered. This alternate was rejected due to the obvious need for a future multi-lane facility. V.

RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS Bridge No. 124 will be replaced as recommended in Alternate 1 with a 105-foot (32-m) long bridge to be phase constructed on the north side of the existing structure (see Figure 2). The new roadway cross section will be 52 feet (15.8 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters. The curb and gutter section will transition to a shoulder section on the approaches. In addition, sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the bridge. The bridge will be phase constructed to allow for maintenance of traffic on-site. The roadway cross section will provide for two lanes of traffic initially. There will be approximately 800 feet (244 m) of new approach work to the east and 800 feet (244 m) of new approach work to the west. The roadway cross section on the immediate approaches will be 52 feet (15.8 m) wide from face to face of curbs with gutters for approximately 200 feet (60.9 m) on either side of the bridge. From this point, the approach roadway cross section will be 48 feet (14.6 m) wide plus 4-foot (1.2-m) paved shoulders on both sides of the roadway. The approach roadway cross section will then transition to the existing roadway width. The total shoulder width through this section of approach roadway will be 8 feet (2.4 m), including 4 feet (1.2 m) of paved shoulder and 4 feet (1.2 m) of grassed shoulder. Based on preliminary design, the design speed will be approximately 50 mph (80 km/h). Alternate I is recommended because the proposed four-lane section on the bridge accommodates future traffic volumes and requires the least cost of the alternates considered. Although the 1994 Statewide Thoroughfare Plan for Wake County recommends a five-lane section along SR 2006, only four lanes are needed across the bridge. A center turn-lane will not be required in the future on the immediate approaches to the bridge since the land is not developable. The multi-lane bridge is justifiable due to the existing and planned development in the anticipated highest growth area in the City of Raleigh. Large subdivisions are located east and west of the bridge along SR 2006. Dense urban development is located immediately south of SR 2006. The Northern Wake Expressway and the Triangle Towne Center regional mall are under construction within a mile. The mall is accessible from SR 2006. The Neuse Crossroads development is under construction on SR 2006 west of the bridge. This includes a shopping center, an 800-student elementary school, 252 single-family units, and 1116 condominiums. A proposed Wake Technical Community College is planned nearby. Much of the above mentioned development will have entrances "onto SR 2006. Coordination with the City of Raleigh was accomplished in order to comply with their transportation plans in the bridge vicinity. The City of Raleigh has a sidewalk policy, which states that widening a thoroughfare with significant development along the road requires sidewalks on both sides of the roadway. Currently, the City has plans to widen SR 2006 to a multi-lane facility in the future to accommodate the tremendous traffic growth in the bridge vicinity. In order to comply with the City's future widening project, sidewalks will be installed on both sides of the bridge. Justification for the sidewalks is due to the high-density development underway which will generate pedestrian activity. The WRAL Soccer Field Complex is located'/4 mile west of the bridge. In addition, the City of Raleigh acquired right-of-way up to the north and south sides of the bridge for a proposed greenway located along Perry Creek. NCDOT will accommodate the greenway under the northwest side of the bridge, which increases the bridge length from 95 feet (30 m) to the proposed 105 feet (32 m). This accommodation is contingent upon a municipal agreement with the City- of Raleigh to determine a cost- sharing agreement for expenses associated with the increased bridge length. VII. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS A. GENERAL This project is expected to have an overall positive impact. Replacement of an inadequate bridge will result in safer traffic operations. This project is considered to be a "Categorical Exclusion" due to its limited scope and insignificant environmental consequences. This bridge replacement will not have a substantial adverse effect on the quality of the human or natural environment. Environmental commitments listed on the Project Commitments sheet of this document will be implemented in addition to the use of current NCDOT standards and specifications. The project is not in conflict with any plan, existing land use, or zoning regulation. No change in land use is expected to result from construction of this project. There are no hazardous waste impacts. No adverse effect on families or communities is anticipated. Right-of-way acquisition will be limited. No adverse effect on public facilities or services is expected. The project is not expected to adversely affect social, economic, or religious opportunities in the area. There are no publicly owned parks, recreational facilities, or wildlife and waterfowl refuges of national, state, or local significance in the vicinity of the project. This project will not impact any resource protected by Section 4(f) of the U. S. Department of Transportation Act of 1966. The proposed bridge replacement project will not raise the existing flood levels or have any significant adverse effect on the existing floodplain. Utility impacts are considered to be moderate for the proposed project. B. AIR AND NOISE This project is located in Wake County, which is within the Raleigh-Durham non- attainment area for ozone (03) and carbon monoxide (CO) as defined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) designated this area as a "moderate" non-attainment area for 03 and CO. However, due to improved monitoring data, this area was re-designated as "maintenance" for 03 on June 17, 1994. Section 176(c) of the CAAA requires that transportation plans, programs, and projects conform to the intent of the state air quality implementation plan (SIP). The current SIP does not contain any transportation control measures for Wake County. The Capital Area 1995 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) has been determined to conform to the intent of the SIP. The MPO approval date for the TIP is April 21, 1999. The USDOT approval date of the TIP is July 30, 1999. The current' conformity determination is consistent with the final conformity rules found in CFR Part 51. There have been no significant changes in the project design concept or scope. as used in the conformity analysis; The impact on air quality will be insignificant. If the project disposes of vegetation by burning, all burning shall be done in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations of the North Carolina SIP for air quality in compliance with 15 NCAC 2D.0520. This evaluation completes the assessment requirements of the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments and the National Environmental Policy Act. This project requires no additional reports. The project will not substantially increase traffic volumes. Therefore, it will not have substantial impact on noise levels. Temporary noise increases may occur during construction. C. LAND USE & FARMLAND EFFECTS In the vicinity of this project, Wake County has no zoning. This project will impact no soils considered to be prime or important farmland. D. HISTORICAL EFFECTS & ARCHAEOLOGICAL EFFECTS On March 8, 1999, the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) reviewed the subject project. Subsequently, the SHPO recommended no architectural or archaeological surveys be conducted in connection with this project (see attachment). E. NATURAL RESOURCES 1. PHYSICAL RESOURCES Soil and water resources, which occur in the study area, are discussed below. Soils and availability of water directly influence composition and distribution of flora and fauna in any biotic community. The project study area lies within the Piedmont Physiographic Province. The topography in this section of Wake County is characterized by gently rolling hills, which are dissected by fairly wide flood plains bordered by steep slopes. Topography in the project area is relatively flat since it is located in a wide flood plain area associated with Perry Creek. Project elevation is approximately 190.0 ft (58.0 m) above mean sea level (msl). SOILS . Five soil map units occur within project boundaries: Wehadkee and Bibb soils, two types of Appling sandy loams, Wahee fine sandy loam, and Altavista fine sandy loam. The Wehadkee and Bibb soils are the dominant soil types associated with the project study area and are so similar in use and management that they have been mapped together as an undifferentiated unit. The remaining soil units may be encountered during project construction. Table 2 lists study area soils and their characteristics. 'r,.L.i. i C,.:1? ri,n Prninrt Ctnrlv Area 1 aVIC !r.

The water table may be at the surface for periods of as much as six months. They are poorly drained soils, and surface runoff is slow to ponded. Infiltration is fair for the Wehadkee soil and good for the Bibb soil. Permeability is moderate to moderately rapid. Flooding occurs very frequently for extended periods. Wehadkee and Bibb soils are listed as hydric soils. Wehadkee and Bibb soils are low in natural fertility and may be strongly acid to very strongly acid. Cultivated crops are difficult to grow because adequate drainage requires both surface drainage and subsurface drainage. Flooding and ponding are major limitations for these soils. . Appling sandy loam, with 6-10 percent and 10-15 percent slopes, are well drained soils that occur on narrow side slopes in the uplands. Permeability is moderate, and surface runoff is rapid to very rapid. Infiltration is fair to good. Appling_soils are low in natural fertility, however, they are well suited to locally grown crops. These soils are strongly acid. About one-third of the acreage is cultivated or in pasture, and the remainder is forested. Intensive practices that effectively control runoff and erosion are required if cultivated crops are grown. Erosion is a major limitation for these soils. , Wahee fine sandy loam, with 0-2 percent slopes, is a somewhat poorly drained soil that occurs on low stream terraces. Infiltration is good, and surface runoff is slow to ponded. Permeability is slow, and the seasonal high water table is at a depth of about 1.5 ft (0.5 m). The natural fertility of Wahee soils is medium, and the soils are strongly acid. Most of the acreage is in forest, however, if properly drained it may be cultivated or in pasture. Wetness and the slowly permeable subsoil are the main limitations for this soil. Wahee fine sandy loam is listed as having hydric inclusions of Roanoke. Altavista fine sandy loam, with 0-4 percent slopes, is a moderately well drained soil that occurs on low stream terraces. Infiltration is good, and surface runoff is slow to. medium. Permeability is moderate, and the seasonal high water table is at a depth of approximately 2.0 ft (0.6 m). Altavista soils are low in natural fertility, however this soil is well suited to most of the locally grown crops. These soils may range from medium acid to strongly acid. A small acreage is occupied by trees, but it is mainly used for row crops or pasture. Infrequent flooding does -occur, but the floodwaters remain for short periods. Altavista fine sandy loam is listed as having hydric inclusions of Roanoke. Soil core samples taken throughout the project area revealed soils with a silty texture. The soils did exhibit hydric conditions, such as low chroma colors. in low areas of the floodplain and in the herbaceous wetland. Therefore, hydric soil indicators, as defined in the "Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual". 1987, were observed within the project study area. WATER RESOURCES . This section contains information concerning those water resources likely to be impacted by the project. Water resource information encompasses physical aspects of the resource, its relationship to major water systems, Best Usage Standards and water quality of the resources. Probable impacts to these water bodies are also discussed, as are means to minimize impacts. Waters Impacted and Characteristics Perry Creek will be the only surface water resource directly impacted by the proposed project (Figure 2). Perry Creek is located in sub-basin.03-04-02 of the Neuse River Basin. Perry Creek is a tributary to the Neuse River, and has its confluence with the river approximately 0.6 mi (1.0 km stream channel distance) downstream of Bridge No. 124. At Bridge No. 124, the channel of Perry Creek is approximately 45.0 ft (13.7 m) wide and has an average depth of 6.0 ft (1,8 m). The average baseflow width is 14.0 ft (4.3 m), and the average depth of the baseflow is 5.0 in (12.7 cm). The substrate is composed of sand and gravel. Sand deposits have caused the formation of numerous shoals. Pools of stagnant water with iron bacteria, as well as filamentous algae, horsehair algae, (Pithophora sp.) are present. Approximately 50.0 ft (15.2 m) from the center of the road, on the southeast comer of Bridge No. 124, there is a small unnamed tributary (UT) flowing into Perry Creek. The channel width is approximately 4.0 ft (1.2 m), and the depth is 2.0 ft (0.6 m). The baseflow width is approximately 1.5 ft (0.5 m), and the baseflow depth is 2.0 in (5.1 em). The UT is approximately 10.0 ft (3.1 m) out of the proposed ROW. As long as NCDOT stays within the proposed ROW of 120.0 ft (36.6 m), project construction should not infringe on the UT. Best Usage Classification Streams are assigned a best usage classification by the DWQ. The classification of Perry Creek [index no. 27-25-(2)] is C NSW. Class C uses include aquatic life propagation and survival, fishing, wildlife, secondary recreation and agriculture. The supplemental classification of NSW denotes Nutrient Sensitive Waters which require limitations on nutrient inputs. The Falls Lake Protected Watershed Area is located approximately 3.8 mi (6.1 km) northwest of the project area. The project area is not located in a water supply watershed. Neither High Quality Waters (HQW), Water Supplies (WS-I: undeveloped watersheds or WS-II: predominately undeveloped watersheds) nor Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW) occur within 1.0 mi (1.6 km) of project study area. Water Qualitti The DWQ has initiated a whole basin approach to water quality management for the 17 river basins within the state. To accomplish this goal the DWQ collects biological. chemical and physical data that can be used in basinwide assessment and planning. All basins are reassessed every five years. Prior to the implementation of the basin-wide approach to water quality management, the Benthic Macroinvertebrate Ambient Network (managed by the DEM) assessed water quality by sampling for benthic macroinvertebrate organisms at fixed monitoring sites throughout the state. A Benthic Macroinvertebrate data site is located at Bridge No. 124. This site was sampled in July of 1995 and received a rating of Fair. Many benthic macroinvertebrates have stages in their life cycle that can last from six months to a year, therefore, the adverse effects of a toxic spill will not be overcome until the next generation. Different taxa of macroinvertebrates have different tolerances to pollution, thereby, longterm changes in water quality conditions can be identified by population shifts from pollution sensitive to pollution tolerant organisms (and vice versa). Overall, the species present, the population diversity and the biomass are reflections of long term water quality conditions. Point source dischargers located throughout North Carolina are permitted through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program. Any discharger is required to register for a permit. Three permitted dischargers are located within 1.0 mi (1.6 km) of Bridge No. 124 (Table 3). kml of Rridup.

Nonpoint source discharge refers to runoff that enters surface waters through stormwater or snowmelt. Agricultural activities may serve as a source for various forms of nonpoint source pollutants. Land clearing and plowing disturb soils to a degree where they are susceptible to erosion, which can lead to sedimentation in streams. Sediment is the most widespread cause of nonpoint source pollution in North Carolina. Pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and land application of animal wastes can be transported via runoff to receiving streams and potentially elevate concentrations of toxic compounds and nutrients. Animal wastes can also be a source of bacterial contamination and elevate biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). Drainage ditches on poorly drained soils enhances the transportation of stormwater into surface waters (DEM, 1993). Summary of Anticipated Impacts Replacing an existing structure in the same location without constructing a detour bridge during construction is almost always preferred. It poses the least risk to aquatic organisms and other natural resources. Bridge replacement on new location usually results in more severe impacts. Utilizing the full ROW width of 120.0 ft (36.6 m). .anticipated impacts to Perry Creek. will be 120.0 ft (36.6 m) for each alternate. Usually. project construction does not require the entire ROW; therefore. actual impacts may be considerably less. Project construction may result in the following impacts to surface waters: 1. Increased sedimentation and siltation from construction and/or erosion. 2. Changes in light incidence and water clarity due to increased sedimentation and vegetation removal. Alteration of water levels and flows due to interruptions and/or additions to surface and ground water flow from construction. 4. Changes in water temperature due to streamside vegetation removal. Increased nutrient loading during construction via runoff from exposed areas. 6. Increased concentration of toxic compounds from highway runoff, construction and toxic spills. Precautions must be taken to minimize impacts to water resources in the study area, NCDOT's Best Management Practices (BMP) for the Protection of Surface Waters must be strictly enforced during the construction stage of the project. Guidelines for these BMPs include, but are not limited to: minimizing built upon area and diversion of stormwater away from surface water supply waters as much as possible. Provisions to preclude contamination by toxic substances during the construction interval must also be strictly enforced. The Wildlife Resource Commission (WRC) indicated that Perry Creek supports an anadromous fish-spawning run due to recent dam removals on the Neuse River. They requested that NCDOT follow the officially adopted "Stream Crossing Guidelines for Anadromous Fish Passage" and that no in-water work occur from February 15 to June 15. II. BIOTIC RESOURCES Biotic resources include aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This section describes those ecosystems encountered in the study area, as well as, the relationships between fauna and flora within these ecosystems. Composition and distribution of biotic communities throughout the project area are reflective of topography, hydrologic influences and past and present land uses in the study area. Descriptions of the terrestrial systems are presented in the context of plant community classifications and follow descriptions presented by Schafale and Weakley (1990) where possible. Dominant flora and fauna observed, or likely to occur, in each community are described and discussed. Scientific nomenclature and common names (when applicable) are provided for each animal and plant species described. Plant taxonomy generally follows Radford, et al. (1968). Animal taxonomy follows Martof, et al. (1980), Menhenick (1991), Potter, et al. (1980), and Webster, et al. (1985). Subsequent references to the same organism will include the common name only. Fauna observed during the site visit are denoted with an asterisk (*). Published range distributions and habitat analysis are used in estimating fauna expected to be present within the project area. 10 TERRESTRIAL COMMUNITIES The study area appears to have been previously disturbed. Five distinct terrestrial communities (Figure)) are identified in the project study area: Mixed Pine Hardwood forest, Alluvial forest.. a Depressional Wetland, a Herbaceous Wetland. and maintained/disturbed areas. Community boundaries within the study area are well defined without a significant transition zone between them. Faunal species likely to occur within the study area will exploit all of the communities for shelter and foraging opportunities or as movement corridors. Mixed Pine Hardwood Forest The mixed pine hardwood forest is present in the upland areas adjacent to the Perry Creek floodplain. The transition from mixed pine hardwood forest to the surrounding communities is abrupt due to the change in vegetation and road shoulder maintenance activities. The canopy is primarily composed of American elm (Ulmus americana), winged. elm (U. alata), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), mockemut hickory (Carya tomentosa), water oak (Quercus nigra), white oak (Q. alba), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), black gum (Nyssa sylvatica), loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), red mulberry (Morus rubra), and red maple (Acer rubrum). The shrub layer consists of saplings of the canopy trees, Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), and southern arrowwood (Viburnum dentatum). Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), ground ivy (Glecoma hederacea), and greenbrier (Smilax rotundifolia) comprise the vine layer of this community. Alluvial Forest The alluvial forest is present along the Perry Creek corridor. The hydrology of the alluvial forest is driven by intermittent flooding during high flow periods. Periodic flooding provides nutrient input through sediment deposition making this system very productive. However, periodic flooding can also be a destructive factor during large storm events by undercutting banks and eroding soils. The canopy is primarily composed of river birch (Betula nigra), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), water oak, and sweetgum. The shrub layer consists of saplings of the canopy trees, boxelder (Acer negundo), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), and Chinese privet. Herbs within the alluvial forest include: dayflower (Commelina sp.), pokeweed (Phytolacca americana), river oats (Chasmanthium latifolium), and giant cane (Arundinaria gigantea). Virginia creeper, poision ivy, muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifolia), and greenbrier comprise the vine layer of this community. Depressional Wetland A depressional wetland occurs inside the alluvial forest on the northeast side of the existing bridge. This open water wetland is approximately 30.0 ft (9.1 m) long and 25.0 ft (7.6 m) wide. On November 17, 1999, the water depth was approximately 1.0 ft (0.3 m). This depressional wetland was void of vegetation due to the ephemeral nature of the pool. On the northwest side of the existing bridge is another depressional wetland. It lies outside of the project boundaries. As long as project construction remains inside the proposed ROW, this wetland should not be impacted. 11 Herbaceous Wetland A herbaceous wetland occurs on the northeast side of the bridge in between the alluvial forest and the mixed pine hardwood forest. Herbs within the wetland include: rush (Juncus sp.), false nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica), sedge (Carer sp.). Japanese grass (Microstegium vimineum), goldenrod (Solidago sp.), beggar ticks (Bidens sp.), dayflower, woolgrass (Scirpus cyperinus), and smartweed (Polygonum sp.). Sycamore. red maple, and sweetgum occur along the perimeter. Maintained/Disturbed Community The maintained/disturbed community includes road shoulders along SR 2006 and are present along the entire length -of the project and a residential area located southeast of the existing bridge. Flora within this periodically maintained community includes: fescue (Festuca spp.), crab grass (Digitaria spp.), narrow leaf plantain (Plantago lanceolata), poison ivy, trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans), ragweed (Ambrosia sp.), Virginia creeper, blackberry (Rubus sp. ), greenbrier, Queen Anne's lace (Daucus carota), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), fox grape (Vitis labrusca), muscadine grape, water oak, sapling trees of winged elm, black cherry, and sweetgum. The residential community includes Southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora), Leyland cypress (X Cupressocyparis leylandii), hemlock (Tsuga canadensis), white oak, holly (Ilex sp.), azalea (Rhododendron sp.), loblolly pine, mimosa (Albizia julibrissin), bead grass (Paspalum sp.), and crab grass. The width of the road shoulder varies between 10.0 and 15.0 ft (3.1 and 4.6 m). Wildlife Wildlife associated with the communities present within the project vicinity include: white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), eastern mole (Scalopus aquaticus), opossum (Didelphis virginiana), meadow vole (Microtus pennsylvanicus), muskrat* (Ondatra zibethicus), gray squirrel* (Sciurus carolinensis), beaver (Castor canadensis), and raccoon (Procyon lotor). White-tailed deer will use these communities for cover and will forage on twigs and leaves as well as mast. The wetter areas such as the herbaceous wetland and the alluvial forest may be inhabited by reptiles and amphibians such as eastern box turtle (Terrapene c. carolina), ground skink (Sincella lateralis), Eastern garter snake (Thamnophis sirtalis), spotted salamander (Ambystoma maculatum), and spring peeper (Hyla crucifer). Avian species utilizing the project vicinity include: red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus), blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata), northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis), . rufous-sided towhee (Pipilo erythrophthalmus), summer tanager, (Piranga rubra), tufted titmouse (Parus bicolor), white-eyed vireo (Vireo griseus), and red-eyed vireo (Vireo olivaceus). The maintained habitat within the project area is surrounded by extensive forested areas and represents only a minor constituent of a larger community structure within the project vicinity. Therefore, faunal species frequenting the maintained community will be largely those species inhabiting the adjacent communities. AQUATIC COMMUNITIES One aquatic community, Perry Creek, will be impacted by the proposed project. Physical characteristics of the water body and condition of the water resource influence 12 faunal composition of aquatic communities. Terrestrial communities adjacent to a vvater resource also greatl}., influence aquatic communities. No submersed or emergent aquatic vegetation was observed within this section of Perry Creek. Vegetation along the streambank includes jewel-weed (Impatiens spp.). Japanese grass, asiatic day flower (Murdannia keisak), false nettle, river oats, Chinese privet. poison ivy, greenbrier, blackberry, rush, rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos), and cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis). Fauna associated with these aquatic communities includes various invertebrate and vertebrate species. Fish species likely to occur in Perry Creek include creek chub (Semotilus atromaculatus), pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus), redbreast sunfish (L. auritus), bluegill sunfish (L. macrochirus), tessellated darter (Etheostoma olmstedi), and yellow bullhead catfish (Ameiurus natalis). Invertebrates that would be present include: various species of caddisflies (Trichoptera), mayfly (Ephemeroptera), crayfish (Decapoda), water striders* (Aquarius sp.), whirligig beetles* (Gyrinidae), water spiders* (Dolomedes sp.), and dragonflies* and damselflies* (Odonata). Mollusks identified in Perry Creek includes two species of freshwater mussels* (Elliptio spp.), asiatic clams* (Corbicula fluminea), and a snail* (Physella sp.). The snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina), pickerel frog (Rana palustris), and northern water snake (Nerodia sipedon) are common permanent residents to this community. SUMMARY OF ANTICIPATED IMPACTS Construction of the subject project will have various impacts on the biotic resources described. Any construction related activities in or near these resources have the potential to impact biological functions. This section quantifies and qualifies impacts to the natural resources in terms of area impacted and ecosystems affected. Temporary and permanent impacts are considered here as well. Calculated impacts to terrestrial resources reflect the relative abundance of each community present within the study area. Project construction will result in clearing and degradation of portions of these communities. Table 4 summarizes potential quantitative losses to these biotic communities, resulting from project construction. Estimated impacts are derived using the entire proposed ROW width of 120.0 ft (36.6 m). The paved roadway width of 24.0 ft (7.3 m) has been excluded from the impact calculations. Usually, project construction does not require the entire ROW, therefore, actual impacts may be considerably less.

Replacing Bridge No. 124 and its associated improvements will reduce habitat for faunal species, thereby diminishing faunal numbers. However, due tq the size and scope of this project, it is anticipated that impacts to fauna will be minimal. Areas modified by construction (but not paved) will become road shoulders and early successional habitat. Reduced habitat will displace some wildlife further from the roadway while attracting other wildlife by the creation of more early successional habitat. Animals temporarily displaced by construction activities will repopulate areas suitable for the species. Aquatic communities are sensitive to even small changes in their environment. Stream channelization, scouring, siltation, sedimentation and erosion from construction- related work will effect water quality and biological constituents. Although direct impacts may be temporary, environmental impacts from these construction processes may result in long term or irreversible effects. Impacts often associated with in-stream construction include increased channelization and scouring of the streambed. In-stream construction alters the stream substrate and may remove streamside vegetation at the site. Disturbances to the substrate will produce siltation, which clogs the gills and/or feeding mechanisms of benthic organisms (sessile filter-feeders and deposit-feeders), fish and amphibian species. Benthic organisms can also be covered by excessive amounts of sediment. These organisms are slow to recover or repopulate a stream. The removal of streamside vegetation and placement of fill material at the construction site alters the terrain. Alterations of the streambank enhances the likelihood of erosion and sedimentation. Revegetation stabilizes and holds the soil thus mitigating these processes. Erosion and sedimentation carry soils, toxic compounds and other materials into aquatic communities at the construction site. These processes magnify turbidity and can cause the formation of sandbars at the site and downstream, thereby altering water flow and the growth of vegetation. Streamside alterations also lead to more direct sunlight penetration and to elevations of water temperatures, which may impact many species. III. JURISDICTIONAL TOPICS This section provides descriptions, inventories and impact analysis pertinent to two important issues--Waters of the United States and rare and protected species. WATERS OF THE UNITED STATES Surface waters and wetlands fall under the broad category of "Waters of the United States," as defined in Section 33 of the Code of Federal Register (CFR) Part 328.3. Wetlands, defined in 33 CFR 328.3, are those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted to life in saturated conditions. Any action that proposes to place fill into these areas falls under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). 14 Characteristics of Wetlands and Surface Waters Potential wetland communities were investigated pursuant to the 1987 "Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual". The three-parameter approach is used where hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation and prescribed hydrologic characteristics must all be present for an area to be considered a wetland. Wetlands are present within the project area, and are associated with the alluvial forest (Figure 2). The wetlands can be described as palustrine forested broad-leaved deciduous seasonally flooded (PFO1 C, Cowardin, et al.), or piedmont/low mountain alluvial forest (Schafale and Weakley, 1990). Soils within the wetland areas have a silty texture and a Munsell color notation of l OYR 5/1. Mottles found in the soils have a Munsell color notation of 7.5 YR 5/6. Hydrological indicators include damp soil, the presence of oxidized rhizospheres and water stained leaves. Vegetation within the wetlands include: rush, false nettle, sedge, Japanese grass, goldenrod, beggar ticks, dayflower, woolgrass, and smartweed. Perr y Creek is a jurisdictional surface water under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Discussion of the biological, physical and water quality aspects of Perry Creek are presented in previous sections of this report. Summary of Anticipated Impacts Anticipated impacts to wetland areas are determined by using the entire project ROW width of 120.0 ft (36.6 m). Total impacts to wetlands have been determined to be 0.26 acre (0.11 ha) for Alternate 1, as well as Alternate 2. Impacts to Perry Creek have been determined to be 120.0 ft (36.6 m) due to Alternate 1, as well as Alternate 2. Usually, project construction does not require the entire ROW, therefore, actual wetlands and surface water impacts may be considerably less. Permits impacts to jurisdictional surface waters are anticipated. In accordance with provisions of section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), a permit will be required from the COE for the discharge of dredged or fill material into "Waters of the United States." A Section 404 Nationwide Permit 33 CFR 330.5(a) (23) is likely to be applicable for all impacts to Waters of the United States from the proposed project. This permit authorizes activities undertaken, assisted, authorized, regulated, funded or financed in whole, or part, by another Federal agency or department where that agency or department has determined that pursuant to the council on environmental quality regulation for implementing the procedural provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act; (1) that the activity, work, or discharge is categorically excluded from environmental documentation because it is included within a category of actions which neither individually nor cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment, and; (2) that the office of the Chief of Engineers has been furnished notice of the agency' or department's application for the categorical exclusion and concurs with that determination. A North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Section 401 Water Quality 15 General Certification is required prior to the issuance of the Section 404 Nation"vide Permit No. 23. Section 401 Certification allows surface waters to be temporarily impacted for the duration of the construction or other land manipulations. Neuse River Buffers As the project is located in the Neuse River Basin, Riparian Area Rules for Nutrient Sensitive Waters apply. The rules state that roads, bridges, stormwater management facilities, ponds, and utilities may be allowed where no practical alternative exists. They also state that these structures shall be located, designed, constructed, and maintained to have minimal disturbance, to provide maximum erosion protection, to have the least adverse effects on aquatic life and habitat, and to protect water quality to the maximum extent practical through the use of best management practices. Every reasonable effort will be made to avoid and minimize wetland and stream impacts. Estimated impacts to the riparian buffers are quantified in Table 5. It is possible the water resource listed below may be exempted when an on-site determination by the Division of Water Quality is conducted. Therefore impacts may be considerably less. Table 5.

The purpose of this policy is to restore and maintain the chemical, biological and physical integrity of Waters of the United States, specifically wetlands. Mitigation of wetland impacts has been defined by the CEQ to include: avoiding impacts (to wetlands), minimizing impacts, rectifying impacts, reducing impacts over time and compensating for impacts (40 CFR 1508.20). Each of these three aspects (avoidance, minimization and compensatory mitigation) must be considered sequentially. Avoidance Avoidance mitigation examines all appropriate and practicable possibilities of averting impacts to Waters of the United States. According to a 1990 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the COE, in determining "appropriate and practicable" measures to offset unavoidable impacts, such measures should be appropriate to the scope and degree of those impacts and practicable in terms of cost, existing technology and logistics in light of overall project purposes. Wetland impacts can be avoided by confining construction activities within the boundaries of the existing road shoulder (maintained/disturbed community). Minimization Minimization includes the examination of appropriate and practicable steps to reduce the adverse impacts to Waters of the United States. Implementation of these steps will be required through project modifications and permit conditions. Minimization typically focuses on decreasing the footprint of the proposed project through the 16 reduction of median widths. ROW widths. fill slopes and/or road shoulder widths. Other practical mechanisms to minimize impacts to Waters of the United States crossed by the proposed project include: strict enforcement of sedimentation control BMP's for the protection of surface waters during the entire life of the project- -reduction of clearing and grubbing activity; reduction/elimination of direct discharge into streams; reduction of runoff velocity; re-establishment of vegetation on exposed areas, judicious pesticide and herbicide usage; minimization of "in-stream" activity; and litter/debris control. Compensatory Mitigation Compensatory mitigation is not normally considered until anticipated impacts to Waters of the United States have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent possible. It is recognized that "no net loss of wetlands" functions and values may not be achieved in each and every permit action. Appropriate and practicable compensatory mitigation is required for unavoidable adverse impacts, which remain after all appropriate and practicable minimization has been required. Compensatory actions often include restoration, creation and enhancement of Waters of the United States. Such actions should be undertaken in areas adjacent to or contiguous to the discharge site. Compensatory mitigation is not usually necessary with a Nationwide Permit No. 23, however the final decision lies with the COE. Bridge Demolition Bridge No. 124 has four spans totaling 70.0 ft (21.3 m) in length. The deck and bridge railings are composed of concrete. The substructure is composed of timber. Both the bridge railings and substructure will be removed without dropping components into Waters of the U.S. There is potential for components of the deck to be dropped into. Waters of the U.S. The resulting temporary fill associated with the concrete deck is approximately 33 cubic yards. RARE AND PROTECTED SPECIES Some populations of fauna and flora have been in, or are in, the process of decline either due to natural forces or their inability to coexist with human activities. Federal law (under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended requires that any action, likely to adversely affect a species classified as federally-protected, be subject to review by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife (FWS). Other species may receive additional protection under separate state laws. Federally-Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Proposed Endangered (PE) and Proposed Threatened (PT) are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. As of March 2000, the FWS lists the following federally protected species for Wake County (Table 6). A brief description of each species' characteristics and habitat follows. 17 Table 6 Federallv-Protected Species for Wake County Scientific Name Common Name Status Haliaeetus leucoce halus Bald eagle Threatened Picoides borealis Red-cockaded woodpecker Endangered Alasmidonta heterodon Dwarf wedge mussel Endanaered Rhus michauxii Michaux's sumac Endangered Threatened species are species that are likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Endangered is defined as a species that is threatened with extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Haliaeetus leucocephalus (bald eagle) Threatened Family: Accipitridae Date Listed: March 11, 1967 Adult bald eagles can be identified by their large white head and short white tail. The body plumage is dark-brown to chocolate-brown in color. In flight bald eagles can be identified by their flat wing soar. Eagle nests are found in proximity to water (within a half mile) with a clear flight path to the. water, in the largest living tree in an area, and having an open view of the surrounding land. Human disturbance can cause an eagle to abandon otherwise suitable habitat. The breeding season for the bald eagle begins in December or January. Fish are the major food source for bald eagles. Other sources include coots, herons, and wounded ducks. Food may be live or carrion. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Suitable nesting habitat in the form of large trees with a clear flight path to water . is not present within the project vicinity. The trees occupying the canopy of the alluvial forest are fairly uniform in height and the trees in the mixed pine hardwood forest are uniform in height and very dense. Open water that is of sufficient size for foraging opportunities for the bald eagle (Falls Lake) is approximately 5.3 mi (8.5 km) northeast of the project area. A review of the NC Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database of rare species and unique habitats, on November 18, 1999, has no record for the presence of the bald eagle within the project vicinity. Therefore, project construction will not affect the bald eagle. Picoides borealis (red-cockaded woodpecker) Endangered Family: Picidae Federally Listed: October 13, 1970 The red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) once occurred from New Jersey to southern Florida and west to eastern Texas. It occurred inland in Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. The RCW is now found only in coastal states of its historic range and inland in southeastern Oklahoma and southern Arkansas. In North Carolina moderate populations occur in the sandhills and southern coastal plain. The few populations found in the piedmont and northern coastal plain are believed to be relics of former populations. The adult red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) has a plumage that is entirely black and white except for small red streaks on the sides of the nape in the male. The back of the RCW is black and white with horizontal stripes. The breast and underside of this 18 woodpecker are white with streaked flanks. The RCW has a large white cheek patch surrounded by the black cap. nape, and throat. The RCW uses open old growth stands of southern pines. particularly longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), for foraging and nesting habitat. A forested stand must contain at least 50% pine, lack a thick understory, and be contiguous with other stands to be appropriate habitat for the RCW. These birds nest exclusively in trees that are >60 years old and are contiguous with pine stands at least 30 years of age. The foraging range of the RCW is up to 500 acres (200 hectares). This acreage must be contiguous with suitable nesting sites. These woodpeckers nest exclusively in living pine trees and usually in trees that are infected with the fungus that causes red-heart disease. Cavities are located in colonies from 12-100 ft (3.6-30.3 m) above the ground and average 30-50 ft (9.1-15.7 m) high. They can be identified by a large incrustation of running sap that surrounds the tree. The large incrustation of sap is believed to be used as a defense by the RCW against possible predators. A clan of woodpeckers usually consists of one breeding pair and the offspring from previous years. The RCW lays its eggs in April, May, and June and hatch 38 days later. Clutch size ranges in number from 3-5 eggs. All members of the clan share in raising the young. Red-cockaded woodpeckers feed mainly on insects but may feed on seasonal wild fruits. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Suitable nesting habitat in the form of large pine trees with little understory is not present within the project vicinity. The mixed pine hardwood forest present is primarily comprised of hardwoods and has a dense understory. A review of the NCNHP database of rare species and unique habitats, on November 18, 1999, has no record for the presence of red-cockaded woodpecker within the project vicinity. Therefore, project construction will not affect the red-cockaded woodpecker. Alasmidonta heterodon (dwarf wedge mussel) Endangered Animal Family: Unionidae Dat'Listed: March 14, 1990 Alasmidonta heterodon formerly ranged from the Petitcodiac River, Canada to the Neuse River, North Carolina. In North Carolina populations are found in Middle Creek and the Little River of the Neuse River Basin and in the upper Tar River and Cedar, Crooked, and Stony Creeks of the Tar River system. . The dwarf wedge mussel is a small mussel ranging in size from 2.5 cm to 3.8 cm in length. Its shell is distinguishable by two lateral teeth on the right half and one on the left half. The periostracum (outer shell) is olive green to dark brown in color and the nacre (inner shell) is bluish to silvery white. Successful reproduction is dependent on the attachment of larval mussels to a host fish. It is not known what the host fish is but evidence suggests that it is either an anadromous or catadromous species. This mussel is sensitive to agricultural, domestic, and industrial pollutants and requires a stable silt free streambed with well oxygenated water to survive. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT 19 On July 27. 1999. NCDOT biologists Lynn Smith and Sue Brady surveyed Perri Creek within the project study area. Suitable habitat for dwarf wedge mussel is not present within this portion of Perry Creek. The survey was conducted by wading through the stream and utilizing visual techniques. Two Elliptio spp. were found utilizing one man hour of search time. A review of the NCNHP database on November 18, 1999 indicated that there are no known occurrences of dwarf wedge mussel within the project study area. Therefore, this project will not affect dwarf wedge mussel. Rhus michauxii (Michaux's sumac) Endangered Family: Anacardiaceae Federally Listed: September 28, 1989 Flowers Present: June Michaux's sumac is a densely pubescent rhizomatous shrub. The bases of the leaves are rounded and their edges are simply or doubly serrate. The flowers of Michaux's sumac are greenish to white in color. Fruits, which develop from August to September on female plants, are a red densely short-pubescent drupe. This plant occurs in rocky or sandy open woods. Michaux's sumac is dependent on some sort of disturbance to maintain the openness of its habitat. It usually grows in association with basic soils and occurs on sand or sandy loams. Michaux's sumac grows only in open habitat where it can get full sunlight. Michaux's sumac does not compete well with other species, such as Japanese honeysuckle, with which it is often associated. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Potential habitat for Michaux's sumac is present only within the road shoulder portions of the project area. A plant by plant survey for Michaux's sumac, within areas of potential habitat was conducted on July 1, 1999 by NCDOT biologists Bruce O. Ellis and Lynn Smith. No Michaux's sumac was observed during the survey. A review of the NCNHP database of rare species and unique habitats, on November 18, 1999, contains one record of Michaux's sumac within the project region. A population of Michaux's sumac is located approximately 1.5 mi (2.4 km) southwest of Bridge No. 124. However, replacement of Bridge No. 124 will not affect this plant population. Therefore, project construction will not affect Michaux's sumac. Federal Species of Concern and State Listed Species There are eleven Federal Species of Concern (FSC) listed for Wake County. Federal Species of Concern are not afforded federal protection under the ESA and are not subject to any of its provisions, including Section 7, until they are formally proposed or listed as Threatened or Endangered. Federal Species of Concern are defined as those species, which may or may not be listed in the future. These species were formally candidate species, or species under consideration for listing for which there was insufficient information to support a listing of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered and Proposed Threatened. Organisms which are listed as Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Significantly Rare (SR) or Special Concern (SC) by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) list of rare plant and animal species are afforded state protection under the State Endangered Species Act and the North Carolina Plant Protection and Conservation Act of 1979. 20 Table 7 lists Federal Candidate and State listed species. the species state status and the existence of suitable habitat for each species in the study area. This species list is provided for information purposes as the status of these species may be upgraded in the future.

Salisbury Street, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-1188, 919-733-3391 Charles R. Fullwood, Executive Director MEMORANDUM TO: Karen Orthner, Project Planning Engineer Project Development & Environmental Analysis Branch, NCDOT FROM: David Cox, Highway Project Coo -dinator Habitat Conservation Program \ DATE: March 19, 1999 SUBJECT: NCDOT Replacements in Granville, Johnston, Montgomery, Wake and Watauga counties. TIP Nos. B-3459, B-3481, B-3210, B-3529, and B-3534. Biologists with the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the information provided and have the following preliminary comments on the subject project. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(c)) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d). On bridge replacement projects of this scope our standard recommendations are as follows: 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. 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. Bridge Replacement Memo 2 March 19, 1999 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 chain saws, mowers, bush-hogs, or other mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact, allows the' area to revegetate naturally and minimizes disturbed soil. 6. A clear bank (riprap 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. If corrugated metal pipe arches or concrete box culverts are used: 1. The culvert must be designed to allow for fish passage. Generally, this means that the culvert or pipe invert is buried at least I foot below the natural stream bed. If multiple cells are required the second and/or third cells should be placed so that their bottoms are at stream bankful stage (similar to Lyonsfield design). This will allow sufficient water depth in the culvert or pipe during normal flows to accommodate fish movements. If culverts are long, baffle systems are required to trap gravel and provide resting areas for fish and other aquatic organisms. 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 so that no channel realignment or widening is required. Widening of the stream channel at the inlet or outlet of structures usually causes a decrease in water velocity causing sediment deposition that will require future maintenance. 4. Riprap should not be placed on the stream bed. 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 Bridge Replacement Memo March 19, 1999 avoid destabilizing stream banks. If the structure will be on anew alignment, the old structure should be removed and the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplain. 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 that is reclaimed was previously wetlands, NCDOT should restore the area to wetlands. If successful, the site may be used as wetland mitigation for the subject project or other projects in the watershed. Project specific comments: 1. B-3459 - Granville County - Bridge No. 6 is over Island Creek, which is low gradient, deep channeled stream with a sand and silt substrate. This stream may provide fair fishing for sunfish and pickerel. Our general comments apply. 2. B-3481 - Johnston County - Bridge No. 94 is over the Little River. The federally endangered dwarf wedgemussel (Alismidonta heterodon) and other freshwater mussels are found just downstream of this bridge. We request that a field meeting be held to discuss conservation measures to protect these species. This structure should be replaced specifically with a bridge. There are plans to remove a dam on the Little River downstream of this site which will open this area up to anadromous fish runs. 3. B-3210 - Montgomery County - Bridge No. 45 over the Uwharrie River. The Uwharrie River is a very high quality stream and supports an important and diverse fishery for all sunfish and also supports a spawning run for white bass from Lake Tillery. The river also contains numerous species of freshwater mussels including federal species of concern as well as state listed species. The Uwharrie and Little rivers are two of only a few river basins within the Pee Dee system which still supports a high diversity of mussels. We request that NCDOT hold a field meeting to discuss mussel conservation measures. We request that sedimentation and erosion control measures for sensitive watersheds be used to protect these aquatic resources. No in-water work should be performed from March 1 to May 30. We request that the new structure be replaced on existing location. If the bridge must be replaced on new location, the old bridge approaches should be retained and used as a fishing access area. 4. B-3529 - Wake County - Bridge No. 124 crosses Perry Creek a tributary to the Neuse River. Due to recent dam removals on the Neuse River this stream now supports an anadromous fish spawning run. Therefore, NCDOT should follow the NCDOT officially adopted document " Stream Crossing Guidelines for Anadromous Fish Passage". No in-water work should occur from February 15 to June 15. 5. B-3534 - Watauga County - Although this project was sent to field biologists for comment, I have not received comments at this time. There is the possibility that you may.receive comments directly from the biologist or through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. We request that NCDOT routinely minimize adverse impacts to fish and wildlife resources in the vicinity of bridge replacements. The NCDOT should install and maintain sedimentation control measures throughout the life of the project and prevent Bridge Replacement Memo 4 March 19, 1999 wet concrete from contacting water in or entering into these streams. Replacement of bridges with spanning structures of some type, as opposed to pipe or box culverts, is recommended in most cases. Spanning structures allow wildlife passage along streambanks, reducing habitat fragmentation and vehicle related mortality at highway crossings. If you need further assistance or information on NCWRC concerns regarding bridge replacements, please contact me at (919) 528-9886.
