MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael Kelly, Deputy Director
Division of Solid Waste Management
FROM: Philip J. Prete, Head
Field Operations Branch
Subject: Haywood County
CDBG - Environmental Impact Study
LT.
Fz
The Solid Waste Section has reviewed the attached project proposal and has seen no
adverse impact on the surrounding community and likewise knows of no situations in the
community which would affect the project.
Haywood County should make every feasible effort to minimize the generation of waste,
to recycle materials for which viable markets exist, and to use recycled products and materials in
the development of this project where suitable. This project will likely generate land clearing and
inert debris (LCID) and construction and demolition (C&D) debris. All waste that cannot be
beneficially reused must be disposed of at a properly permitted facility. The nearest facilities
permitted to receive LCID and C&D debris are:
Haywood County LCID Landfill
Incinerator Road
near Canton, NC
[phone]
Haywood County C&D MRF
Incinerator Road
near Canton, NC
[phone]
Additional questions regardign solid waste management should be directed to Mr. Jim
Patterson, Waste Management Specialist, Solid Waste Section, at [phone].

3. Descriplion of Action
The Federal Highway Administration and the North Carolina Department of
Transportation propose to widen and improve US 23 Business (Asheville Road) from the
Waynesville City Limits (Marshall Street/Woodland Drive) to SR 1801 (Jerry Liner
Road). This project is approximately 3.5 kilometers (2.2 miles) long. A location map is
shown as Figure 1.
_, The existing two-lane shoulder facility is proposed to be widened to a five -lane,
20.4-meter (68-foot) (face to face of curbs) curb and gutter roadway from Marshall
Street/Woodland Drive to approximately 0.4 km (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 (Industrial

ii
Park Drive). No widening is proposed for the existing four -lane section of US 23
Business from 0.4 km (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 to SR 1801; however, minor curve
realignment and resurfacing improvements, where warranted, are proposed for this
section of roadway.
The proposed project has an estimated cost in the 1998-2004 Transportation
Improvement Program (TIP) of $ 5,650,000, including $ 2,200,000 for right of way and
$ 3,450,000 for construction costs. The cost of the recommended improvements included
in this environmental assessment is $ 10,541,000, which consists of $ 3,941,000 for right
of way and $ 6,600,000 for construction.
4. Alternatives Considered
This project proposes to widen the existing two-lane roadway to a multi -lane
facility, and realign and resurface the existing four -lane roadway, where warranted. The
two studied alternates, which are evaluated in detail in this document, are described
below and are shown in Figure 2.
Alternate 1 - A combination of east, west, and symmetrical widening of US 23
Business from Marshall Street to approximately 0.4 km (0.25 mile) north
of SR 1267 (Industrial Park Drive), and resurfacing, where warranted,
from approximately 0.4 (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 to SR 1801.
Alternate 2 (Recommended) - A combination of east, west, and symmetrical
widening of US 23 Business from Marshall Street to approximately
0.4 km (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 (Industrial Park Drive), and
realignment and resurfacing, where warranted, from approximately
0.4 km (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 to SR 1801.
In addition to the alternates described above, consideration was given to
maintaining the existing three -lane, 12-meter (40-foot) (face to face of curbs) curb and
gutter section from the Waynesville City Limits (Marshall Street/Woodland Drive)
northward approximately 65 meters (220 feet) to East Street. The section of US 23
Business from East Street to approximately 0.4 km (0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 would
be widened to a three -lane, 12-meter (40-foot) curb and gutter section. From 0.4 km
(0.25 mile) north of SR 1267 to SR 1801, US 23 Business would be resurfaced as needed.
However, because of the high traffic volumes projected along US 23 Business in the
vicinity of the southern project terminal, it was determined that widening the facility to
five lanes along the entire project corridor was necessary to promote safer traffic flow and
provide an acceptable level of service.
