Subject: Nationwide Permit 23 and Nationwide Permit 33 Application for the
proposed replacement of Bridge Nos. 128 and 130 on I-85 Business over
Abbotts Creek, Davidson County, Federal Aid Project No. BRSTP-29
(19), State Project 8.1602001, WBS Element 33453.1.1, TIP No. B-4095
Please see the enclosed Pre-Construction Notice (PCN), permit drawings, design plans and
Categorical Exclusion (CE) for the subject project. The North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) plans to replace Bridge Nos. 128 and 130 with new three span bridges
with a minimum length of 220 feet. The new bridges will be constructed in place. The existing
bridges will be used as detours. Bridge No. 128 will be used as a two-lane detour (one lane of
traffic in each direction) while Bridge No. 130 is being replaced in place. The new Bridge No.
130 will then be used as a two lane detour (one lane of traffic in each direction) while Bridge No.
128 is replaced in place. During the construction period, the speed limit in the project area will
be lowered to 45 mph because of the two-lane detour and to meet the temporary detour design
requirements. In addition, wide load vehicles will be directed to off-site detour routes.
The typical section for the structures includes two 12-foot travel lanes with 8-foot outside
shoulders and a 4-foot inside shoulders. The typical section for the approach roadway for the
permanent replacement structures consists of four 12-foot travel lanes and 4-foot outside paved
shoulders and 2-foot inside paved shoulders. The approach roadways will extend approximately
1500 east and approximately 1500 west of the new bridges. The design speed of the roadway is
60 mph. The elevation of the new structures will be approximately the same as the existing
structures. The replacement structures are bridges with a minimum grade to facilitate drainage.

V
IMPACT TO WATERS OF THE UNITED STATES

General Description: The project is located in the Yadkin River basin (Sub-basin 03-07-07),
Hydrologic Unit Code 03040103. The jurisdictional resource in the project area is Abbotts
Creek. Abbotts Creek is a perennial stream. The Division of Water Quality stream index
number for Abbotts Creek is 12-119-(6). The channel of Abbotts Creek at the bridges is
approximately 45 feet wide and has an average depth of 1.5 feet. The creek appeared to have an
ES Rosgen classification (stream with gentle slopes, and sandy bed with some gravel and silt/clay
deposits) although this was difficult to determine due to high turbidity. From the upstream side
of the bridges to the Abbotts Creek arm of High Rock Lake, Abbotts Creek has a best usage
classification of C. Upstream of the bridges the best usage classification is WS-III, CA [stream
index number 12-119-(4.5)].
According to the City of Lexington Utilities Water Resource section, there are two water valves
located upstream of the bridges (west of Abbotts Creek) and immediately north of the study area.
These water valves are from the water plant and one serves as a drain structure and the other
serves as an intake structure. A valid permit is maintained for these structures. The intake
structure is not being used at this time and has not been used for a long time. The drain structure
is used periodically.
No Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters (HQW), WS-I, or WS-II Waters
occur within 1.0 mile of the project study area.
Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds are listed on the CE Greensheet. The study area is not
located in a ORW, HQW, WS-I or WS-II. The site is located in a critical area (CA) because it is
near two water valves that are not currently being used as intake structures (see above paragraph).
Project construction will occur downstream of the water valves. Because of these reasons
NCDOT will use Best Management practices for this project and not Design Standards in
Sensitive Watersheds.
Permanent Impacts: There will be 0.01 acres of permanent surface water impacts associated with
the project. The permanent impacts are resulting from fill in surface waters due to construction
of the proposed substructures (bents) of each bridge (0.0007 acre). The project will not impact
wetlands.
The CE states that no bents will be placed in the creek. Bents are now proposed because the
bridge structure could not be adjusted to keep the bents out of the creek.
Temporary Impacts: There will be 0.04 acres of temporary surface water impacts due to
installation of two temporary work pads for each bridge (0.02 acres). No temporary wetland
impacts are associated with this project.
Bridge Demolition: Bridge No. 128 carries I-85 Business - US 29/70 northbound traffic. Bridge
No. 128 was built in 1951. The overall bridge length is 200 feet. Bridge No. 128 has four spans,
each 50 feet long. The superstructure consists of a reinforced concrete deck with bituminous
wearing surface and reinforced concrete deck girders. The substructure consists of a reinforced
concrete cap on a spread footing at end bent 1, a reinforced concrete cap on timber piles at end
bent 2 and reinforced concrete post and web interior bents.

b
~ Bridge No. 130 carries I-85 Business- US 29/70 southbound traffic and was built in 1946. The
overall bridge length is 200 feet. The bridge has four spans, each 50 feet long. The
superstructure consists of a reinforced concrete deck with bituminous wearing surface and
reinforced concrete deck girders. The substructure consists of a spill through concrete abutment
at End Bent 1, a reinforced concrete cap on steel piles at End Bent 2, and reinforced concrete post
and web interior bents.
For each bridge, the roadway width, including paved shoulders, is 30 feet and the total deck
width is 33.3 feet. The existing approach roadway width, including paved shoulders is
approximately 30 feet for each bridge. The height of each bridge (from crown to bed) is 26 feet.
The existing median width is 24 feet. The existing right of way includes the maintained area and
is 260 feet. There are no posted weight limits. The posted speed limit is 55 mph.
Bridges No. 128 and 130 will be removed without dropping components into Waters of the
United States. Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters and Bridge
Demolition and Removal guidelines will be followed.
Utility Impacts: There will be no utility relocation impacts to jurisdictional resources. An
overhead electrical line crosses the roadway immediately southwest of the bridges. There is a
sanitary sewer line that runs parallel to the roadway and crosses the creek approximately 100 feet
upstream of the bridges. An underground gas line and overhead telephone line also are located
approximately 120 feet upstream. There are three water lines in the study area. Two of the water
lines and the aerial line have conflicts with the project.
The water line that runs diagonally across the study area (at the bridges) will be relocated. This
water line will be relocated by putting bends in the line. These bends will be installed on the
bank away from the bridge. A second water line is located east of US 29/70 Business and old
highway US 29. This line will be relocated further away from the road but will remain inside the
right-of--way. No utility impacts to jurisdictional areas are anticipated from the relocation of both
utility lines (water).
Two aerial poles located in the southeast and northeast quadrants will be removed and the line
reattached to existing poles. No utility impacts to jurisdictional areas are anticipated from the
pole removal and reattachment of the overhead aerial line.
FEDERALLY PROTECTED SPECIES
Plants and animals with a federal classification 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. The USFWS lists 3 federally -
protected species, as of December 11, 2006, for Davidson County. The Endangered and
Threatened species in North Carolina web-site was checked on December 20, 2006 for any
changes and the list remains the same. The species under federal protection are listed in Table 1.

No suitable habitat for the bald eagle, bog turtle and Schweinitz's sunflower are located in the
study area according to the CE. The Biological Conclusion of No Effect remains valid for all
three species.
RESTORATION PLAN
Following construction of the bridge, all material used in the construction of the structure will be
removed. The impact area associated with the bridge is expected to recover naturally, since the
natural streambed and plant material will not be removed. NCDOT does not propose any
additional planting in this area. Class I riprap and filter fabric will be used for bank stabilization.
Pre-project elevations will be restored. NCDOT will restore stream to its pre-project contours.
Schedule: The project calls for a letting of August 21, 2007 with a date of availability of October
2, 2007. It is expected that contractor will choose to start construction in October 2007.
Removal and Disposal Plan: The contractor will be required to submit a reclamation plan for the
removal of and disposal of all material off-site at an upland location. The contractor will use
excavation equipment for removal of any earthen material. Heavy-duty trucks, dozers, cranes
and various other pieces of mechanical equipment necessary for construction of roadways and
bridges will be used on site. All material placed in the stream will be removed from the stream at
that time. The contractor will have the option of reusing any of the materials that the engineer
deems suitable in the construction of project. After the erosion control devices are no longer
needed, all temporary materials will become the property of the contractor.
AVOIDANCE, MINIMIZATION and MITIGATION
Avoidance and Minimization:
Avoidance examines all appropriate and practicable possibilities of averting impacts to "Waters
of the US". The NCDOT is committed to incorporating all reasonable and practicable design
features to avoid and minimize jurisdictional impacts and to minimize impacts as part of the
project design. Practical means to minimize impacts to surface waters temporarily impacted by
the project include:
4

Project Specific Measures-
, • During construction road closure is planned for one bridge and traffic will diverted to the
other bridge.
• The bridges are to be replaced in the same location
• The existing bridges can be removed without any debris falling into the water.
Standard Measures-
Best Management Practices will be followed for this project as outlined in "NCDOT's Best
Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities"
Mitigation: No mitigation is proposed because of minimal impacts.
REGULATORY APPROVALS
Section 404 Permit: It is anticipated that impacts from construction of the new bridges will be
authorized under Section 404 Nationwide Permits 23 and 33. We are therefore requesting the
issuance of a Nationwide Permit 23 and 33 for the bridge construction.
Section 401 Permit: We anticipate 401 General Certification number 3403 and 3366 will be
applicable to this project. All general conditions of the Water Quality Certification will be met.
Therefore, in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H, Section .0500(a) and 15A NCAC 2B .0200 we are
providing 2 copies of this application to the North Carolina Department of Environment and
Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality for their notification.
Thank you for your time and assistance with this project. A copy of this permit application will
be posted on the NCDOT website at http //www.ncdot or /g_doh/preconstruct/~e/neu/permit html

be replaced in the same location The existing bridges can be removed without any debris falling
into the water
VIII. 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 January 15, 2002, 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 maybe 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 NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http:I/h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.

INTRODUCTION: The replacement of Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 is included in the North
Carolina Department of Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and in the Federal-
Aid Bridge Replacement Program. The location of the bridges is shown in Figure 1. No
substantial environmental impacts are anticipated. The project is classified as a Federal
"Categorical Exclusion".
I. PURPOSE AND NEED FOR PROJECT
NCDOT Bridge Maintenance Unit records indicate that Bridge No. 128 has a sufficiency
rating of 41.0 out of a possible 100 for a new structure, and Bridge No. 130 has a
sufficiency rating of 37.8. These bridges are considered functionally obsolete and
structurally deficient. The replacement of these inadequate structures will result in safer
and more efficient traffic operations.
1I. EXISTING CONDITIONS
'Project Setting. Figure 1 shows the project location in relation to the county and state.
The project is located in the piedmont area of the central part of the state. I-85
Business - US 29/70, which is a north/south roadway, runs east/west in the project area.
I-85 Business - US 29/70 is classified as a rural
minor arterial. It is a four-lane median divided
facility. Land use in the project area is mixed.
Rural residential and agricultural land use is
predominant south of I-85 Business - US 29/70.
Lexington Water Works, a public water treatment
facility, is just northwest of the bridges. There is

Nos. 128 & 1301ooldng west.

some wooded land, a barn, and a portable restroom business in the area northeast of the
bridges. Davidson County Community College is approximately one mile northwest of
the bridges on I-85 Business - US29/70. t
An overhead electrical line crosses the roadway immediately southwest of the bridges.
There is a sanitary sewer line that runs parallel to the roadway and crosses the creek
approximately 100 feet upstream of the bridges. An underground gas line and overhead
telephone line also are located approximately 120 feet upstream. The utility conflicts for
this bridge project are considered medium.
Existing Bridge Data. Bridge No. 128 carries I-85
Business - US 29/70 northbound traffic. Bridge
No. 128 was built in 1951. The overall length of
the bridge is 200 feet. The bridge has four spans,
each 50 feet long. The superstructure consists of a
reinforced concrete deck with bituminous wearing
surface and reinforced concrete deck girders. The
substructure consists of a reinforced concrete cap on
a spread footing at End Bent 1, a reinforced
concrete cap on timber piles at End Bent 2, and
reinforced concrete post and web interior bents.
Bridge No. 130 carries I-85 Business - US 29/70 southbound traffic and was built in
.1946. The overall length of the bridge is 200 feet. The bridge has four spans, each 50
feet long. The superstructure consists of a reinforced concrete deck with bituminous
wearing surface and reinforced concrete deck girders. The substructure consists of a spill
through concrete abutment at End Bent 1, a reinforced concrete cap on steel piles at End
Bent 2, and reinforced concrete post and web interior bents.
The existing drainage area for Abbotts Creek is 70.7 square miles.
For each bridge, the roadway width, including paved shoulders, is 30 feet and the total
deck width is 33.3 feet. The existing approach roadway width, including paved shoulders
is approximately 30 feet for each bridge. The height of each bridge (from crown to bed)
is 26 feet. The existing median width is 24 feet. The existing right of way includes the
maintained area and is 260 feet. There are no posted weight limits. The posted speed
limit is 55 miles per hour (mph).

Traffic Information. Traffic volumes at this bridge project location are 23,700 vehicles
per day (vpd) for the year 2003 and 42,700 vpd for the design year 2030. The projections
a
estimate six (6) percent truck-tractor semi-trailer (TTST) and ten (10) percent dual-tired
(DT) vehicles.
Twenty-one accidents were reported in the vicinity of these bridges during the period
from July 1, 2000 to June 30, 2003. Eight of these crashes occurred in the southbound
lanes in the vicinity of Bridge No. 130 and thirteen of these crashes occurred in the
northbound lanes in the vicinity of Bridge No. 128.
Fourteen Davidson County school busses cross Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 once each day.
This section of I-85 Business - US 29/70 in Davidson County is a highway where
bicycling and walking are not allowed. This section of I-85 Business - US 29/70 is not
part of a designated bicycle route nor is it listed in the TIP as needing incidental bicycle
accommodations.
III. ALTERNATIVES
A. Project Description
Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 will be replaced with new bridges. The typical section for these
structures is shown in Figure 2. Each new structure will be a three span bridge with a
minimum length of 220 feet. None of the bents will be in the creek. The typical section
for the structures includes two 12-foot travel lanes with 8-foot outside shoulders and a 4-
foot inside shoulders. The typical section for the approach roadway for the permanent
replacement structures consists of four 12-foot travel lanes and 4-foot outside paved
shoulders and 2-foot inside paved shoulders. The approach roadways will extend
approximately 780 feet east and approximately 670 feet west of the bridges. The design
speed for the roadway is 60 miles per hour.
Based on the preliminary hydraulic analysis, the elevation of the new structures will be
approximately the same as the existing structures. The replacement structures are bridges
with a minimum grade to facilitate drainage. The length and opening of the new bridge
structures may increase or decrease as necessary to accommodate peak flows, which will
be determined from detailed hydraulic analysis during final design.

_~
B. Build Alternatives
Two alternatives were evaluated for the replacement of Bridge Nos. 128 & 130. These
alternatives are shown in Figures 3a-g and described below.
Alternative 1- TemQorary Realignment Upstream (North)
This alternative will involve building a temporary detour structure upstream (north) and
constructing the replacement bridges at the existing location. The detour bridge will be
approximately 200 feet long and 28 feet wide. The detour bridge will be offset a distance
of approximately 72 feet upstream of the existing bridge. During construction, traffic
will be maintained on the temporary detour bridge. Upon completion of the new bridges,
the temporary bridge and approaches will be removed.
During the construction period, the Caldcleugh RoadlI-85 Business intersection east of
the bridges will be closed. Caldcleugh Road can be accessed by another intersection with
I-85 Business approximately 1 mile northeast. The Caldcleugh Road/I-85 Business
intersection near the bridge will be reopened when the replacement bridges are
completed.
Alternative 1 was not selected because it is more costly and has more impacts to biotic
communities when compared to Alternative 3.
Alternative 3 -Temporary Median Cross-Overs (Preferred)
This alternative will use the existing bridges as detours. Bridge No. 130 will be used as a
two lane detour (one lane of traffic in each direction) while Bridge No. 128 is being
replaced in place. The new Bridge No. l28 then will be used as a two lane detour (one
lane of traffic in each direction) while Bridge No. 130 is replaced in place.
During the construction period, the speed limit in the project area will be lowered to 45
miles per hour because of the two lane detour and to meet the temporary detour design
requirements. In addition, wide load vehicles will be directed to off-site detour routes.
C. Alternatives Eliminated from Further Study
The "do-nothing" alternative will eventually necessitate removal of the existing
structures. This is not desirable due to the service provided by Bridge Nos. 128 &.130.
Rehabilitation of the existing structures is not feasible due to their age and deteriorated
condition.

Categorical Exclusion
November 2004

~,
A road closure alternative is not feasible due to the volume of traffic using I-85 Business
- US 29/70.
Alternative 2 - Tem ora Reali ent Downstream
This alternative involves building a temporary detour structure downstream (south) and
constructing the permanent replacement bridges at the existing location. The detour
bridge will be approximately 200 feet long and 28 feet wide. The approach roadway will
extend approximately 780 feet east and approximately 670 feet west of the bridge. The
detour bridge will be offset a distance of approximately 72 feet downstream of the
existing!bridge. During construction, traffic will be maintained on the detour bridge.
Upon completion of the new bridges, the temporary detour bridge and approaches will be
removed.
Alternative 2 was eliminated from further study because it would relocate approximately
415 feetof Abbotts Creek.
D. Preferred Alternative
Alternative 3 is the Preferred Alternative. Alternative 3 uses each bridge as a detour
while the other bridge is replaced in place. Alternative 3 was selected as the Preferred
Alternative because it is the least expensive alternative and has the least impacts to biotic
communities when compared to Alternative 1. Both structures will be designed and
constructed to allow for a future six-lane facility.
The Division 9 Engineer concurs with the selection of Alternative 3 as the Preferred
Alternative.

V. NATURAL RESOURCES
Definitions for area descriptions used in this report are as follows: Project Study Area
denotes the area bounded by proposed construction limits; and Project Vicinity describes
an area extending 0.5 mile on all sides of the Project Study Area.
A. Methodology
Background research on soils, water resources, wetlands, protected species and other area
features were conducted prior to field investigations. Information sources used in this
pre-field investigation of the study area included:
• US Geological Survey (USGS) quadrangle map (High Point West)
s-4o9s 6
Categorical Exclusion
November 2004
r

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory Map (High
Point West)
Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS, formerly the Soil Conservation
Service) soil maps, and
NCDOT aerial photographs of project area (scale 1" =100').
Water resource information was obtained from the following source:
• Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ)
Information concerning the occurrence of federal and state protected species in the study
area was gathered from the following sources:
• US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) website list of Davidson County
Endangered Species, Threatened Species, and Federal Species of Concern
• NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) database of rare species and unique habitats
General field surveys were conducted along the proposed alignment April 12, 2001,
September 18, and October 31, 2001. Plant communities and their associated wildlife
were identified and recorded. Wildlife identification involved using one or more of the
following observation techniques: active searching and capture, visual observations, and
identifying characteristic signs of wildlife (sounds, scat, tracks and burrows).
Jurisdictional wetland determinations were performed using delineation criteria
prescribed in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (USAGE, 1987).
Estimated impacts were derived using the construction limits shown on the functional
designs for each alternative. The estimated construction limits on the functional designs
were developed based on site visits, aerial photography, and USGS topographic mapping.
B. Physiography and Soils
The Project Study Area denotes the area bounded by proposed construction limits. It lies
within the Piedmont Physiographic Province. The topography in this section of Davidson
County is characterized by gently rolling hills, dissected by wide floodplains.
Topography in the Project Study Area includes moderate slopes leading down to a
relatively wide and flat floodplain associated with Abbotts Creek. The project elevation is
approximately 650 feet above mean sea level (msl).

adjoining upland sideslope depressions. Permeability is moderate, and the seasonal high
water table is located 0.5 foot-1.5 feet below the surface. Chewacla loam is frequently
flooded, and is listed as a hydric soil because of saturation for a substantial period during
the growing season.
The forest potential on Chewacla loam is listed as high, although excessive water can be
a substantial limitation. Wetness may impede equipment use. (US Department of
Agriculture, Soil Survey of Davidson County, 1976).
C. Water Resources
1. Waters Impacted
Abbotts Creek will be the only surface water resource temporarily impacted by the
proposed project. Abbotts Creek is located in sub-basin 07 of the Yadkin-Pee Dee River
Basin (03-07). Figure 4a-b shows the various resources in the project study area.
2. Water Resource Characteristics
Abbotts Creek at Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 is approximately 45 feet wide and has an
average depth of 1.5 feet. The creek appeared to have an ES Rosgen classification
(stream with gentle slopes, and sandy bed with some gravel and silt/clay deposits),
although this was difficult to determine due to high turbidity. The drainage area for
Abbotts Creek is 70.7 square miles.
There is a small dam approximately 200 feet upstream (north) of the bridges. A public
water treatment facility, Lexington Water Works, is located northwest of the existing
bridge about 300 feet upstream. It has a discharge pipe in Abbotts Creek located
approximately 40 feet upstream of the dam (240 feet upstream of the existing bridge).
The dam stands about 3 feet high and is used to pool water for the discharge. The water
passed freely over the dam on the days of the site visits. The Public Works Manager for
the City of Lexington was contacted and had no concerns regarding the project in relation
to the water treatment facility.

3. Best Usage Classification and Water Quality
Best Usage Classification. Streams are assigned a best usage classification by the
NCDWQ. The classification of Abbotts Creek [Index No. 12-119-(6)] is C. The Class C
listing indicates that the water uses include aquatic life propagation and survival, fishing,
wildlife, secondary recreation, and agriculture.
Neither High Quality Waters (HQW), Water Supplies (WS-I: undeveloped watersheds or
WS-II: predominately undeveloped watersheds) nor Outstanding Resource Waters
(ORW) occur within one mile downstream of the Project Study Area.
Water Quality Monitoring. The Benthic Macroinvertebrate Ambient Network
(BMAN) is managed by NCDWQ and is part of an ongoing ambient water quality
monitoring program which addresses long-term trends in water quality.. The program
assesses water quality by sampling for selected benthic macroinvertebrate organisms at
fixed monitoring sites. Some macroinvertebrates are sensitive to very subtle changes in
water quality; thus, the species richness and overall biomass of these organisms are
reflections of water quality. There is a BMAN station on Bridge No. 130. It was sampled
in 1985, and received a rating of Fair.
The overall support rating for this section of Abbotts Creek is support-threatened (ST).
This rating indicates that while the creek is currently capable of supporting activities
indicated by its best usage classification (Class C), it may not be able to support these
activities in the future without pollution prevention or a control action. (NCDWQ 1998).
NPDES Pernutted Dischargers. There are 19 major and 41 general NPDES permitted
dischargers in the subbasin (NCDENR-DWQ 1998). It is not anticipated that the project
will impact any of these facilities, including the water treatment plant (Lexington Water
Works) about 300 feet upstream from the bridge. The Public Works Manager for the
City of Lexington was contacted and had no concerns regarding the project in relation to
the water treatment facility.
Non-Point Source Dischargers. Non-point source dischargers cause water problems in
sub-basin 07. Major sources in this basin include; agriculture, especially cattle and
poultry production, urban/residential areas, construction, timber harvesting, onsite
wastewater disposal, generally from septic systems, and solid waste disposal.

4. Anticipated Impacts to Water Resources
Alternative 3 (Preferred) is a bridge without bents in the creek; therefore, there will be no
permanent impacts to Abbotts Creek.
Impacts to water resources can occur during construction. NCDOT, in cooperation with
NCDWQ, has developed a sedimentation control program for highway projects, which
adopts formal best management practices (BMPs) for the protection of surface waters.
5. Impacts Related to Bridge Demolition and Removal
The superstructure should be removed without any resulting fill. Since the substructures
of the existing bridges are made of concrete, there is a potential for some of this material
to be dropped into Waters of the United States during removal. The substructures of
Bridge No. 128 and Bridge No. 130 each are made up of 277 cubic yards of concrete.
Therefore, the removal of the substructure will likely result in 554 cubic yards of
temporary fill dropped into the water during removal of Bridge Nos. 128 & 130.
D. 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.
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. Scientific nomenclature and common names (when applicable) are provided for
each plant and animal 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
include the common name only. An asterisk (*) after the faunal species name indicates
that an animal or evidence of a particular animal was observed on the site visits (nest,
scat, tracks, sound etc).
1. Terrestrial Communities
As shown in Figure 4, two distinct terrestrial communities occur in the Project Study
Area: Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest and Maintained/Disturbed. Community
B-4o9s 10

boundaries within the Project Study Area are well defined, without a substantial
transition zone between them.
Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest. There is a fringe Piedmont/Low Mountain
Alluvial Forest along the Abbotts Creek corridor extending about 20 feet on either side of
the stream bank. Southwest and northeast of the project area, there are large areas of
alluvial forest, intermixed with disturbed land. The transition from alluvial forest to
maintained/disturbed community is abrupt due to road shoulder maintenance activities.
Intermittent flooding during high flow periods drives the hydrology of the alluvial forest.
Periodic flooding provides nutrient input through sediment deposition, making this
system very productive. However, periodic flooding can be a destructive factor during
large storm events by undercutting banks and eroding soils.
The canopy of the Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest is composed of green ash
(Fraxinus Pennsylvanica), river birch (Betula nigra), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis),
and red maple (Ater rubrum). The understory consists of tag alder (Alms serrulata),
silky dogwood (Corms amomum), and red maple saplings. The shrub layer consists of
multiflora rose (Rosa multijlora), blackberry (Rebus sp.), and privet (Ligustrum sinense).
Herbs in the area include clover (Trifolium sp.), bamboo (Fargesia sp.), dandelion
(Taraxacum sp.), violet (Viola sp.), and rush (Juncos effuses). Japanese honeysuckle
(Lonicera japonica), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), and greenbrier (Smilax sp.)
comprise the vine layer.
Wildlife associated with the alluvial forest include: raccoon* (Procyon lotor), gray
squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), opossum (Didelphis virginiana), and white-tailed deer*
(Odocoileus virginianus). These species will use this forest community for cover and
will forage on twigs and leaves as well as mast. Amphibians and reptiles likely to inhabit
this habitat type include the two-lined salamander (Eurycea bislineata), spring peeper
(Hyla crucifer), and snake species such as the northern copperhead (Agkistrodon
contortrix mokasen) and the black rat snake (Elaphe obsoleta obsoleta).
Avian species using the alluvial forest include: song sparrow* (Melospiza melodia),
tufted titmouse* (Pares bicolor), northern mockingbird* (Mimes polyglottos), eastern
bluebird* (Sialia sialis), belted kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon), northern parula (Parula
americana), and blue-gray gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea). The barred owl (Stria
varia) is a permanent resident in this community type. Swallows* (Family Hirundinidae)
and pigeons* (Columbia Livia) are using the current bridge for nesting and roosting.
B-ao9s 11
Categorical Exclusion
November 2004

Maintained/Disturbed Community. The Maintained/Disturbed areas are mowed
infrequently and have a variety of early successional species including: multiflora rose,
goldenrod (Solidago sp.), daisies (Family Compositae), and Japanese honeysuckle. A
few sapling sycamores are growing through the herb and shrub layer.
The Maintained/Disturbed Community includes residential and commercial areas. T'he
residential areas are primarily covered with turf grasses, with some planted trees. The
area immediately to the west of the project area is in commercial use by the Lexington
Water Works and other commercial buildings. Most of the area is maintained in turf
grasses (Festuca sp. and Cynodon dactylon).
The Project Study Area is surrounded by a combination of farmland and alluvial forest.
Therefore, faunal species frequenting the maintained community will be species
inhabiting the alluvial forest or early successional habitat.
Wildlife associated with the maintained/disturbed community includes: gray squirrel*,
opossum*, groundhog (Marmota monax), raccoon, and white-tailed deer. Amphibians
and reptiles likely to inhabit this habitat type include spring peeper and other frog and
toad species as well as snake species such as the northern copperhead and the black rat
snake.
Avian species using the maintained/disturbed community include: song sparrow*, tufted
titmouse*, northern mockingbird*, eastern bluebird*, blue jay* (Cyanocitta cristata), and
American robin (Turdus migratorius).
2. Aquatic Communities
One aquatic community, Abbotts Creek, will be temporarily impacted by the proposed
project. Physical characteristics of the water body and condition of the water resource
influence faunal composition of aquatic communities. Terrestrial communities adjacent to
a water resource also greatly influence aquatic communities.
Fish associated with the aquatic community include redbreast sunfish (Lepomis auritus),
gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum), bluehead chub (Nocomis leptocephalus), redlip
shiner (Notropis chiliticus), creek chub (Semotilus atromaculatus), fantail darter
(Etheostoma flabellare), and tessellated darter (Etheostoma olmstedi) (Tracy, Pers.
Comm.). A fisherman in the area stated he had caught catfish (Ictalurus sp.) and carp
(Ctenopharyngodon sp.) at the dam upstream of the bridge (April 12, 2001).
B-4095 12
Categorical Exclusion
November 2004

Invertebrates that will be present include: crayfish (Family Cambaridae) and nymphal
stages of dragonflies and damselflies (Order Odonata). The bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana),
pickerel frog (R. palustris), snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina), and northern water
snake (Nerodia sipedon) are common permanent residents in this community.
3. Anticipated Impacts to Biotic Communities
a. Terrestrial Communities
Calculated impacts to biotic 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 2 summarizes potential quantitative losses to
these biotic communities resulting from Alternative 1 (temporary realignment upstream)
and Alternative 3 (temporary median crossovers). Estimated impacts are derived using
the construction limits (slope stakes) shown on the functional designs for the alternative.
Table 2

Piedmont/Low Mountain Alluvial Forest (acres) 1.46 0.67
Maintained/Disturbed (acres) 1.08 0.81

Total acres of habitat 2.54 1.48
linear feet of creek 0 0
As indicated in Table 2, the total area of impact for Alternative 1 is greater than for
Alternative 3 (Preferred). The habitat impacted most will be Piedmont/Low Mountain
Alluvial Forest for Alternative 1 and Maintained/Disturbed for Alternative 3. Impacts
from Alternative 1 will be temporary since the detour bridge will be removed after the
bridges are constructed and the area around the detour bridge will be restored. Impacts
from Alternative 3 (Preferred) are caused by construction of the roadway approaches and
will be temporary since the existing bridges will be used as detours and will be removed
after the bridges are constructed and the area will be restored. Areas modified by
construction, but not paved, will become road shoulders and early successional or
maintained/disturbed habitat.

Categorical Exclusion
November 2004

-r
Plant communities found within the proposed project area serve as nesting and sheltering
habitat for various wildlife species. Due to the size and scope of this project, it is
anticipated that impacts to fauna will be minimal.
Invasive species such as Japanese honeysuckle are already prevalent in the area. To
avoid further spread of these species, establishment of a hardy groundcover as soon as
possible after disturbance is recommended.
b. Aquatic Communities
Aquatic communities are sensitive to even small changes in their environment. Stream
channelization, scouring, siltation, sedimentation and erosion from construction-related
work will temporarily affect water quality and biological constituents.
Impacts often associated with construction that disturbs streambanks include increased
channelization and scouring of the streamsed. Construction activities that take place in-
stream, such as equipment crossing the stream, alter the stream substrate and may remove
streamside vegetation at the site.
The removal of streamside vegetation and placement of fill material at the construction
site alters the terrain. Alterations of the streambank increase the likelihood of erosion and
sedimentation. Erosion and sedimentation carry soils, toxic compounds and other
materials into aquatic communities at the construction site. Revegetation stabilizes and
holds the soil, thus mitigating these processes.
Implementation of guidelines and Best Management Practices for surface waters, trout
waters, waters classified as ORW, and bridge demolition and removal will result in no
notable losses to aquatic species or habitats.
E. Special Topics
1. 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 Regulations (CFR) Part 328.3 and
in accordance with provisions of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344).
Waters of the United States are regulated by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE).
s-ao9s 14
Categorical Exclusion
November 2004

Potential wetland communities were investigated pursuant to the 1987 Corps of
Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (USCE, 1987). According to the three-parameter
approach outlined in the manual, hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation and prescribed
hydrologic characteristics all must be present for an area to be considered a wetland. No
jurisdictional wetlands are present within the Project Study Area.
Abbotts Creek is a Jurisdictional Surface Water under Section 404 of the Clean Water
Act (33 USC 1344). Abbotts Creek will not be permanently impacted by the proposed
project.
2. Permits
a. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
It is anticipated that this project will fall under Nationwide Permit 23 (33 CFR 330.5(x)),
which is a type of general permit. Nationwide Permit 23 is relevant to Categorical
Exclusions. This permit authorizes activities, work, and discharges undertaken, assisted,
authorized, regulated, funded or financed in whole, or part, by another Federal agency
and that the activity 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. Activities authorized
under nationwide permits must satisfy all terms and conditions of the particular permit.
b. Section 401 Water Quality Certification
A Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality (NCDWQ) is necessary for projects that require Section 404 Permits. Written
concurrence/notification is not always required by the State, and varies depending upon
the General Certification. If this project qualifies under Nationwide Permit 23, the
NCDWQ must be notified, however written concurrence from the NCDWQ is not
required.
c. Bridge Demolition and Removal
Since the substructure and superstructure of the existing bridges are made of concrete,
there is a potential for some of this material to be dropped into Water of the United States
during removal. Permitting will be coordinated such that any permit needed for bridge
construction will address issues related to bridge demolition. If the bridge is to be
B-4095 1$
Categorical Exclusion

,.
removed in a fashion such that there is a practical alternative to dropping bridge
components into the water, that alternative shall be followed.

3. Avoidance
Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 will be replaced with new bridge structures with no bents in the
creek. Therefore, impacts to Abbotts Creek are avoided.
4. Minimization
The Preferred Alternative (Alternative 3) minimizes impacts to the Waters of the United
States by replacing Bridge Nos. 128 & 130 at the existing location. Utilization of BMPs
will be used in an effort to minimize impacts. No jurisdictional wetlands are present
within the Project Study Area.
5. Mitigation
The USACE has adopted, through the CEQ, a wetland mitigation policy which embraces
the concepts of "no net loss of wetlands" and sequencing. The purpose of this policy is to
restore and maintain the chemical, biological and physical integrity of Waters of the
United States, including wetlands. Mitigation of wetland impacts has been defined by the
CEQ to include avoiding impacts, 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. There are no wetland impacts associated with this project. Mitigation is not
expected for any alternative.
The USACE usually requires compensatory mitigation for activities authorized under
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act if unavoidable impacts to Waters of the United States
total more than 0.10 acre of wetlands or 500 linear feet of perennial and intermittent
streams.
The NCDWQ may require compensatory mitigation for activities authorized under
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act if unavoidable impacts to waters of the United States
total more than 0.10 acre of wetlands and/or 1501inear feet of perennial streams.
A final determination regarding mitigation requirements rests with the agencies noted
above.

F. 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.
1. 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. Table 3
includes the federally protected species listed by the USFWS for Davidson County as of
October 4, 2004. A brief description of each species' characteristics and habitat follows.

Endaneered species are in danger of becoming extinct throughout all or a significant portion of their
range.
Threatened species are likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a
significant portion of their range.
~ On November 4, 1997, the northern population of bog turtles (from Maryland to New York) was
listed as threatened. The southern population was listed as threatened due to similarity of appearance
(T(S/A)). This listing bans collection, interstate and international commercial trade in bog turtles, but
it has no effect on private landowners.
Bald Eagle - (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) -Threatened
Family: Accipitridae
Date. Listed: March 11, 1967
BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT
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 maybe live or carrion.
The major reasons for the eagles' decline are habitat loss, direct shooting, and pesticide
use. The birds use riparian systems, many of which have been altered for recreational,
urban, or agricultural uses. Human disturbance and tree removal, particularly of large
trees used for nesting, has further reduced the birds' reproductive abilities. From the
1950's to the 1970's, DDT use was a major cause for the species' decline. Even today,
environmental contamination from pesticide use, lead and mercury, is a threat to the
species (Sierra Club, Spotlight on the Species website, http://www.sierraclub.org/
habitat/species/bald.aspy.
Habitat for the bald eagle is not found within the Project Study Area. It is possible that
eagles may occasionally fly over the project area. However, the lack of appropriate
feeding, roosting and perching habitat or suitable nesting habitat in the form of large trees
with a clear flight path to water is not present within the project vicinity. Additionally,
the NC Natural Heritage Program database of raze species and unique habitats has no
record for the presence of the bald eagle within the project vicinity. Therefore, project
construction will not affect the bald eagle.
Schweinitz's sunflower - (Helianthus schweinitzii) - Endangered
Family: Helianthus
Date Listed: May 7, 1991
BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT
Schweinitz's sunflower is a perennial plant with a pubescent stem and a head less than
1.4 inches. It is 3.3-6.5 feet tall, often with several flowering stems. The yellow flowers
bloom from September to frost, with rays 0.8-1.2 inches long. In September through
October, dark brown glabrous nutlets develop. These are rounded at the apex and 0.12-
.13 inches long. The stiff pubescent leaves are the plant's most readily identifiable
indicator. The upper surface is rough, with broad-based spinose hairs directed towards
the leaf tip. The underside is densely covered with soft white hairs that obscure the leaf
surface.

The plant is generally found in upland areas, in wood fringes, thickets or pastures in
moist to fairly dry clay, clay-loam, or sandy-clay loam soil.
The major threats to Schweinitz's sunflower are habitat destruction, fire suppression,
habitat alteration, and highway right-of--way maintenance. Many areas where the plant
lives have been developed as cities or suburbs grow. Some known populations have
disappeared for unknown reasons (USFWS Endangered Species Program website,
http://endangered.fws.gov).
Habitat for the Schweinitz's sunflower is not found within the Project Study Area. A
population of Schweinitz's sunflower has been recorded in Davidson County. However,
a review of the NC Natural Heritage Program database of rare species and unique habitats
revealed no records of North Carolina rare and/or protected species in or near the project
study area. Additionally, the soil type in the Project Area is not generally favorable for
Schweinitz's sunflower growth. The plants prefer moist to dry clay soils, and the
frequent flooding expected in a streambed and common to the Chewacla soils will not be
conducive to this plant. No plants were found during site visits on any of the field visits,
including September 18, 2001, when the species would have been in bloom. Project
construction will not affect the Schweinitz's sunflower.

protect Threatened or Endangered species that may be difficult to differentiate. These
species are not subject to Section 7.
There is one Federal Threatened Species Due to Similarity of Appearance (T(S/A)), the
bog turtle (Clemmys muhlenbergii), listed for Davidson County. Directed surveys for the
Bog turtle were not conducted during the site visits, nor was this species observed. There is
no suitable habitat for this species in the project vicinity. Project construction will not

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 or
Proposed Threatened.

VI. CULTURAL RESOURCES
A. Compliance Guidelines
This project is subject to compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, and implemented by the Advisory Council on
Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106, codified as 36 CFR
Part 800. Section 106 requires Federal agencies to take into account the effect of their
undertakings (federally-funded, licensed, or permitted) on properties included in or
eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and to afford the
Advisory Council a reasonable opportunity to comment on such undertakings.
B. Historic Architecture
All structures within the Area of Potential Effects (APE) were photographed, and later
reviewed by the State Historic Preservation Office (HPO). In a concurrence form dated
March 29, 2001, the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) concurred there are no
historic architectural resources either listed in or eligible for listing in the National
Register of Historic Places within the project's area of potential effect. A copy of the
concurrence form is included in the Appendix.
C. Archaeology
The SHPO, in a memorandum dated June 13, 2001, stated that the agency was "unable to
comment on the potential for an effect upon archaeological sites." The SHPO requested
that plans be forwarded so that they can continue their review. A map of the Preferred
Alternative was sent to the SHPO. In a memorandum dated October 21, 2003, the SHPO
stated that an archaeological survey is not necessary. A copy of the memorandums are
included in the Appendix.
VII. OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
Summary. The project is a Federal "Categorical Exclusion" due to its limited scope and
lack of substantial environmental consequences. The project is expected to have an
overall positive impact. Replacement of an inadequate bridge will result in safer traffic
operations. The bridge replacement will not have an adverse effect on the quality of the
human or natural environment with the implementation of current NCDOT standards and
B-4o9s 21

specifications. On the basis of information included in this document, it is concluded that
no significant adverse environmental effects will result from implementation of the
project. ''
Land Use Planning. 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 the
Preferred Alternative.
Community Services and Facilities. No adverse effects on public facilities or services
are anticipated. The project is not expected to adversely affect social, economic, or
religious opportunities in the area. None of the alternatives require an offsite detour;
therefore, school bus or emergency vehicle service should not be disrupted.
Relocations. Right of way acquisition will be limited. No relocatees are expected with
implementation of the Preferred Alternative.
Utilities. Major existing utilities within the immediate project study area include a
sanitary sewer line and electrical lines. An underground gas line and overhead telephone
lines are located approximately 120 feet upstream. All utility providers will be contacted
and coordinated with to ensure that the proposed design and construction of the project
will not disrupt service.
Section 4(n Resources. 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 does not require right-of--way acquisition or easement from any
land protected under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966.
Air Quality. This project is an air quality "neutral" project. Therefore, it is not required
to be included in the regional emission analysis (if applicable) and a project level CO
analysis is not required.
The project is located in Davidson County, which has been determined to be in
compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. 40 CFR Part 51 is not
applicable, because the proposed project is located in an attainment area. This project is
not anticipated to create any adverse effects on the air quality of this attainment area. If
vegetation is disposed of 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 for air quality (1990 CAAA and
NEPA) and no additional reports are required.
Noise. Because traffic volumes will not increase or decrease because of this project and
there are no noise sensitive receptors located in the immediate area of this project, no
noise impacts attributable to this project are expected.
Noise levels could increase during construction, but this increase will be temporary.
This evaluation completes the assessment requirements for highway traffic noise
(23 CFR Part 772) and no additional reports are required.
Hazardous Materials. Afield reconnaissance survey was conducted in the vicinity of
the existing bridges. A file search at the North Carolina Department of Environmental
and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management, Groundwater Section
and the NC Dept of Human Resources, Solid Waste Management Section was conducted
to identify any known problem sites along the proposed project alignment. No
underground storage tank facilities or hazardous waste sites are known to be present in
the Project Study Area.
Prime and Important Farmland. The Farmland Protection Policy Act requires all
federal agencies or their representatives to consider the potential impacts to prime and
important farmland soils by all land acquisition and construction projects. Prime and
important farmland soils are defined by the United States Department of Agriculture
Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA NRCS). An assessment was completed
using form AD 1006 to determine if the project's impact on Prime and Important
Farmland will require consideration of mitigation. This project was not submitted to
NRCS for land evaluation due to the low site assessment criteria score. The completed
form is included in the Appendix.
Floodplains. Abbotts Creek is included in a detailed flood insurance study with
regulatory floodway established. The proposed replacement is not anticipated to increase
the extent of upstream flood hazard. There are no practical alternatives to crossing the
floodplain. All reasonable measures will be taken to minimize harm to the floodplain. A
copy of the Flood Insurance Rate Map (see Figure 5) shows the approximate limits of the
100-year floodplain in the vicinity of the project.
Geodetic Survey Markers. No geodetic survey markers will be impacted.

Environmental Justice. In compliance with Executive Order 12898 (Federal Actions to
Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations) a
review of project impacts was conducted to determine whether minority or low-income
populations will receive disproportionately high and adverse human health or
environmental impacts as a result of this project. The review determined the project will
not require any relocations nor are there any concentrations of minority or low-income
populations. Therefore, the project will not disproportionately impact any minority or
low-income populations.
VIII. AGENCY COORDINATION
Local, state, and federal agencies were contacted to provide technical assistance in
identifying the key issues and potential impacts associated with the proposed project with
scoping letters mailed on June 1, 2001.
Agency Comments
Agency comments are summarized below. Letters from the commenting agencies are
included in the Appendix.
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Comment:
"This Creek (Abbotts Creek) flows into High Rock Lake. Abbotts Creek supports a diverse fishery
including Largemouth bass, redbreast sunfish, bluegill, channel catfish, and crappie. White Bass
make a seasonal spring run up the creek to spawn. We request that High Quality Sedimentation
and Erosion Control Measures 6e used due to the DWQ water quality classification of
WS-III CA. "
Response: The DWQ water quality classification for Abbotts Creek [Index No. 12-119-
(6)] is C. This classification was verified by the NCDWQ on February 19, 2003 (Alridge
Renn, Personal Communication). Due to the C classification of Abbotts Creek, no High
Quality Sedimentation and Erosion Control Measures are necessary.

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
stream 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 baze soil
within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide Lang-term erosion control.
13. All work in or adjacent to stream waters should be conducted in a drv 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.

l6, All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters should be regularly
inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels,
lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials.

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; lb
U.S.C. 661-667d).
On bridge replacement projects of this scope our standard recommendations are as
follows:
I. We generally prefer spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not require
work within the stream and do not require stream channel realignment. The honzontaI
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. Wet concrete should not be allowed to contact stream water. This will lessen the
chance of altering the stream's water chemistry and causing a fish kill.
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

Bridge Memo

June 27, 2001
If corrugated metal pipe arches, reinforced concrete pipes, or concrete box culverts are
used:
1. The culvert must be designed to allow for fish passage. The culvert or pipe invert
should be buried at least 1 foot below the natural streambed. The installation of the
culvert or pipe should insure that all waters flow without freefalling or damming on
either end during low flow conditions. If culverts are long, notched baffles should be
placed in reinforced concrete box culverts at 15 foot intervals to allow for the
collection of sediments in the culvert, to reduce flow velocities, and to provide resting
places for fish and other aquatic organisms moving through the structure.
2. When two pipes are installed, only the tower pipe should be buried 12" into the
substrate so that all base flows continue uninterrupted in the lower pipe during normal
and low flow conditions to maintain aquatic life passage. The bottom of the second
pipe should be placed at grade or at bankfull elevation. The second pipe should
remain dry during normal flows to allow for wildlife passage. Where disrupted,
natural floodplain benching should be restored upstream and downstream of the
second, "dry", pipe.
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 streambed.
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 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-4033 -Buncombe County -Bridge No. 85 over Hominy Creek. We have no specific
comments. We are not aware of any threatened of endangered species in the project vicinity.
2. B-3814 -Burke County -Bridge No. 56 over Canoe Creek. Canoe Creek at the bridge
replacement is in a designated water supply watershed. NCDOT should adhere to strict
erosion corrtrol measures.
3. B-3818 -Caldwell County -Bridge No. 3 over Lost Cove Creek. First class trout waters
with wild populations of brown and rainbow trout present in both Lost Cove Creek and
downstream in Wilson Creek. The area is designated Public Mountain Trout Water. We will
requue a trout moratorium from Oct. 15's -April 15~. We request that High Quality

Bridge Memo ~ 4 ~ June 27, 2001

classification of ORW (Outstanding Resource Waters).
4. B-3826 -Cherokee County -Bridge No. 166 over Bates Creek. The upper portion of Bates
Creek is on gamelands and is designated wild trout. Trout are ~ so likely blow the bridge
replacement. We will require a trout moratorium from Oct. 15 -April IS . NCDOT should
adhere to strict erosion comrol measures.
5. B-3834 -Davidson County -Bridge No. 156 over Hanks Creek. No comment.
b. B-4095 - Davidson Courny -Bridge No. 130 over Abbotts Creek. This Creek flows into
High Rock Lake. Abbott Creek supports a diverse fishery including Largemouth bass,
redbreast sunfish, bluegiIl, channel catfish, and crappie. White Bass make a seasonal spring
run up the creek to spawn. We request that High Quality Sedimentation and Erosion Cornrol
Measures be used due to the DWQ water quality classification of WS-III CA
7. B-3854 -Haywood County -Bridge No. 329 over Jonathon Creek. Jonathon Creek is
designated hatchery supported water. Therefore, Brook, Brown and Rainbow Trout will be
presern. We will require a trout moratorium from Oct. I5~` -April 15ei. NCDOT should
adhere to strict erosion control measwes.
$. B-3859 -Jackson County -Bridge No.138 over Pressley Creek. The upper section of a
tn'butary to Pressley Creek is on game lands and supports wild trout. The lower end of
Presley also supports wild trout. Hatchery supported water begins at the confluence with
Cullowhee Creek. It looks like this bridge is actually over Tilley Creek. Tilley Creek is
considered trout waters. We will require a trout moratorium from Oct. 15s' -April 15a'.
NCDOT should adhere to strict erosion control measures.
9. B-3860 -Jackson County -Bridge No. 33 over Buff Creek. Upper sections of the creek
support wild trout. The lower section is de~~signated Hatchery Supported. We will require a
trout moratorium from Oct. 15 -April 1 S NCDOT should adhere to strict erosion control
measures.
I0. B-4184 -Madison County -Bridge No. 4 over Ivy River. We have no specific comments.
We are not aware of any threatened of endangered species in the project vicinity.
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 wet concrete from
contacting water in or entering into these streams. Replacement of budges with spanning
structures of some type, as opposed to pipe or box culverts, is recommended in most cases.
Spanning structures allow vv~ldlife passage along streambanks, reducing habitat fragmentation
and vehicle related mortality at highway crossings.
If you need further assistance or information an NCWRC concerns regarding bridge
replacements, please contact me at [phone]. Thank you for the opportunity to review and
comment on these projects.

~~~` L,`..h r.1
Please see the enclosed Pre-Construction~i etieer (PCN), permit drawings, design plans and
Categorical Exclusion (CE) for the subject project. The North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) plans to replace Bridge Nos. 128 and 130 with new three span bridges
with a minimum length of 220 feet. The new bridges will be constructed in place. The existing
bridges will be used as detours. Bridge No. 128 will be used as a two lane detour (one lane of
traffic in each direction) while Bridge No. 130 is being replaced in place. The new Bridge No.
130 will then be used as a two lane detour (one lane of traffic in each direction) while Bridge No.
128 is replaced in place. During the construction period, the speed limit in the project area will
be lowered to 45 mph because of the two lane detour and to meet the temporary detour design
requirements. In addition, wide load vehicles will be directed to off-site detour routes.
The typical section for the structures includes two 12-foot travel lanes with 8-foot outside
shoulders and a 4-foot inside shoulders. The typical section for the approach roadway for the
permanent replacement structures consists of four 12-foot travel lanes and 4-foot outside paved
shoulders and 2-foot inside paved shoulders. The approach roadways will extend approximately
1500 east and approximately 1500 west of the new bridges. The design speed of the roadway is
60 mphl:7, j~ ,~
The elevation of the new structures will be approximately the same as the existing structures. The
replacement structures are bridges with a minimum grade to facilitate drainage. T'1~[e~e

General Description: The project is located in the Yadkin River basin (Sub-basin 03-07-07), ,, ;.
Hydrologic Unit Code"1+~ 03040103. The jurisdictional resource in the project area is Abbotts ~ ~' ' ` ~ ~'~
Creek. The Division of Water Quality stream index number for Abbotts Creek is 12-119-(6). The "~^~z
channel of Abbotts Creek at the bridges is approximately 45 feet wide and has an average depth
of 1.5 feet. The creek appeared to have an ES Rosgen classification (stream with gentle slopes,
and sandy bed with some gravel and silt/clay deposits) although this was difficult to determine
due to high turbidity. From the upstream side of the bridges to the Abbotts Creek arm of High
Rock Lake, Abbotts Creek has a best usage classification of C. Upstream of the bridges the best
usage classification is WS-III, CA [stream index number 12-119-(4.5)).
According to the City of Lexington Utilities Water Resource section, there are two water valves
located upstream of the bridges (west of Abbotts Creek) and immediately north of the study area.
These water valves are from the water plant and one serves as a drain structure and the other
serves as an intake structure. A valid permit is maintained for these structures. The intake
structure is not being used at this time and has not been used for a long time. The drain structure
is used periodically.
No Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters (HQW), WS-I, or WS-II Waters
occur within 1.0 mile of the project study area.
C ~%
Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds are listed on the Greensheet. The study area is not
located in a ORW, HQW, WS-I or WS-II. The site is located in a critical area (CA) because it is
near two water valves that are not currently being used as intake structures (see above paragraph).
Project construction will occur downstream of the water valves. Because of these reasons
NCDOT will use Best Management practices for this project and not Design Standards in
Sensitive Watersheds.
Permanent Impacts: There will be 0.01 acres of permanent surface water impacts associated with
the project. The permanent impacts are resulting from fill in surface waters due to construction
~,~{~~.+ y~,efZ
,,. he proposed substructures (bents) of each bridge (0.0007 acre). The project will not impact
wetlands.
The CE states that no bents will be placed in the creek. Bents are now proposed because the
bridge structure could not be adjusted to keep the bents out of the creek.
Temporary Impacts: There will be 0.04 acres of temporary surface water impacts due to
installation of two temporary work pads for each bridge (0.02 acres). No temporary wetland
impacts are associated with this project.
Bride Demolition: Bridge No. 128 carries I-85 Business - US 29/70 northbound traffic. Bridge
No. 128 was built in 1951. The overall bridge length is 200 feet. Bridge No. 128 has four spans,
2

each 50 feet long. The superstructure consists of a reinforced concrete deck with bituminous
wearing surface and reinforced concrete deck girders. The substructure consists of a reinforced ~~_ + ~
concrete cap on a spread footing at end bent 1, a reinforced concrete cap on timber piles atd c. <~
'~$ent 2 and reinforced concrete post and web interior bents.
Bridge No. 130 carries I-85 Business- US 29/70 southbound traffic and was built in 1946. The
overall bridge length is 200 feet. The bridge has four spans, each 50 feet long. The
~: superstructure consists of a reinforced concrete deck with bituminous wearing surface and
-~ :i reinforced concrete deck girders. The substructure consists of a spill through concrete abutment
~` ~ "~ ~ ~d~ent 1, a reinforced concrete cap on steel piles at End Bent 2, and reinforced concrete post
and web interior bents. ~' 14 ., ~~i ~ ~ ~k ~,~ ~~ .~~, , .j c-~ (-
For each bridge, the roadway width, including paved shoulders, is 30 feet and the total deck
width is 33.3 feet. The existing approach roadway width, including paved shoulders is
approximately 30 feet for each bridge. The height of each bridge (from crown to bed) is 26 feet.
The existing median width is 24 feet. The existing right of way includes the maintained area and
is 260 feet. There are no posted weight limits. The posted speed limit is 55 mph.
Bridges No. 128 and 130 will be removed without dropping components into Waters of the
United States. Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters and Bridge
Demolition and Removal guidelines will be followed.
Utility Impacts: There will be no utility relocation impacts to jurisdictional resources. An
overhead electrical line crosses the roadway immediately southwest of the bridges. There is a
sanitary sewer line that runs parallel to the roadway and crosses the creek approximately 100 feet
upstream of the bridges. An underground gas line and over head telephone line also are located
approximately 120 feet upstream. There are three water lines in the study area. Two of the water
lines and the aerial line have conflicts with the project.
The water line that runs diagonally across the study area (at the bridges) will be relocated. This
water line will be relocated by putting bends in the line. These bends will be installed on the
bank away from the bridge. A second water line is located east of US 29/70 Business and old
highway US 29. This line will be relocated further away from the road but will remain inside the
right-of--way. No utility impacts to jurisdictional areas are anticipated from the relocation of both
utility lines (water).
Two aerial poles located in the southeast and northeast quadrants will be removed and the line
reattached to existing poles. No utility impacts to jurisdictional areas are anticipated from the
pole removal and reattachment of the overhead aerial line.
FEDERALLY PROTECTED SPECIES
Plants and animals with a federal classification 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. The USFWS lists 3 federally -
protected species, as of December 11, 2006, for Davidson County. The Endangered and
3

Threatened species in North Carolina web-site was checked on December 20, 2006 for any
changes and the list remains the same. The species under federal protection are listed in Table 1.

three species.
AVOIDANCE, MINIMIZATION and MITIGATION
~~~
~~~
~~
REGULATORY APPROVALS
Section 404 Permit: It is anticipated that impacts from construction of the new bridges will be
authorized under Section 404 Nationwide Permits 23 and 33. We are therefore requesting the.
issuance of a Nationwide Permit 23 and 33 for the bridge construction.
Avoidance and Minimization:
Avoidance examines all appropriate and practicable possibilities of averting impacts to "Waters
of the US". The NCDOT is committed to incorporating all reasonable and practicable design
features to avoid and minimize jurisdictional impacts and to minimize impacts as part of the
project design. Practical means to minimize impacts to surface waters temporarily impacted by
the project include:
Project Specific Measures-
• During construction road closure is planned for one bridge and traffic will diverted to the
other bridge.
• The bridges are to be replaced in the same location
• The existing bridges can be removed without any debris falling into the water.
Standard Measures-
• Best Management Practices will be followed for this project as outlined in "NCDOT's Best
Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities"
Miti atg_ ion: No mitigation is proposed because of minim impacts.

Section 401 Permit: We anticipate 401 General Certification number 3403 and 3366 will be
~ applicable to this project. All general conditions of the Water Quality Certification will be met.
'Therefore, in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H, Section .0500(a) and 15A NCAC 2B .0200 we are
providing 2 copies of this application to the North Carolina Department of Environment and
Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality for their notification.

VIII. 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.
USAGE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, 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 maybe 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 USAGE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
~://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
