Subject: Request for Refinement of the Existing CAMA Major Development
Permit for the Expansion of Smith Creek Parkway from the Northeast
Cape Fear River to 0.53 mile East of 23`d Street; State Project No.
8.2250101; Federal Aid Projects No. MAM-M-5851(2) and MANHS-
0332(8); TIP Nos. U-92B and U-92A, respectively; New Hanover County
The Department of Transportation (DOT) proposes to modify its activities in
jurisdictional areas in portions of U-92A and U-92B. The "A" project is under
construction; the "B" project was let on May 21, 2002. The contractor's date of
availability for the "B" project is likely to occur near the end of July. With this letter and
attachments, a request is hereby made for a CAMA Letter of Refinement. A similar
request (for modifications) has been made by separate letter to the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the Division of Water Quality.
U-92A
The DOT requests permission to install additional temporary work bridges at site 3
(centered at Station -L- 29+00). This action would occur at Smith Creek. The bridges
have become necessary due to scheduling delays and resulting tie-up of an adjacent
trestle, which was the intended construction access over Smith Creek. Tidewater Skanska
Construction Corporation proposes to fabricate and install additional trestles to allow a
continuous work-bridge across Smith Creek. The proposed design allows for a center
span, which could be removed with 24 hours notice to allow a clear span of 33 feet if
necessary. Placement of the trestle above Bents 19 and 20 footing locations would allow
sufficient overhead clearance for passage of small watercraft. In order to comply with the
instream moratorium from February 1 through June 15, the additional work bridge will be
installed in September 2002 and removed in September 2003. The resulting temporary

Mr. Arrington
fill in Smith Creek from cylinder piles would be 0.001 acres. Modified permit
drawings for Site 3 and the Summary Sheet are attached for your review.
U-92B
Construction on this project is likely to begin near the end of July 2002. A general
description of the proposed modifications follows:
• Site 1: Undercut limits have been extended slightly; 4 equalizer pipes (stations
Y 1 LpD-1 +95, Y 1 RpD-22+70, Y 1 RpD-23+65, and right of station Y 1 LpD-1 +50) and
2 shoulder drains (left of station Y 1 RpD-22+75 and left of station Y 1 RpD-23+40)
have been added. , Impacts resulting from fill/undercut (3.17 acres) and mechanized
clearing (0.16 acre) in jurisdictional areas represents a net increase in impacts by
0.07 acre.
• Site 2: An equalizer pipe has been added at station L-40+80. Impacts resulting from
fill/undercut (0.35 acre) and mechanized clearing (0.01 acre) in jurisdictional areas
represents a net decrease in impacts by 0.01 acre.
• Site 3: Temporary work bridges have been added at Y3RpB (right of from station
1+50 to 2+85) and between stations L-42+55 and L-44+40, and between L-46+00 and
L- 48+90). Shoulder drains are proposed along Y3 between stations 18+10 and
19+00, and at station 49+90. Finally, a sanitary sewer line is proposed to pass
through the wetland right of station L-48+10. Impacts resulting from fill/undercut
(0.37 acre) and mechanized clearing (0.17 acre) in jurisdictional areas represents a net
decrease in impacts by 0.03 acre.
• Site 4: The proposed retaining wall along the north side of wetland site 4 has been
eliminated. A shoulder drain will be installed in the wetland at station L-51+20.
Impacts resulting from fill/undercut (0.62 acre) and mechanized clearing (0.05 acre)
in jurisdictional areas represents a net decrease in impacts by 0.89 acre.
• Site 5: A sanitary sewer line will cross a small part of site 5. Impacts resulting from
fill/undercut (0.01 acre) and mechanized clearing (0.01 acre) in jurisdictional areas
represents a net increase in impacts by 0.02 acre.
• Summary of Impacts:
Site Previous Impact New Impact Net Change
1 3.26 3.33 +0.07
2 0.37 0.36 -0.01
3 0.57 0.54 -0.03
4 1.56 0.67 -0.89
5 0.00 0.02 +0.02
Net change in impacts to wetlands will be -0.84 acre.
Please note that, as a result of installation of equalizer pipes, sanitary sewer lines and/or
curb drains (pipes), 0.24 acre of temporary excavation/fills in wetlands will occur.
Finally, the revised design will result in a very small increase of 0.08 acre in the total
Page 3

Mr. Arrington
discharge of fill into surface waters. This results in a total net decrease in permanent
impacts to wetlands and surface waters of 0.081 acre.
Although approval of the temporary bridge on the "A" project is not needed before mid-
August, the "B" project has a more critical schedule. A letter of Refinement is needed
before the end of July on this project. If you have any questions, please contact Elizabeth
L. Lusk at [phone], extension 335 for Section A; and Randy Turner at extension
270 for Section B.

Street, JVil/nington, New Hanover County, North Carolina; State Project No.8. 2250102;
Federal Aid Project No. ,11A1f4f-3831(2); TIP No. U-92x1/B
The Department recently discovered that a small section of sanitary sewer line will have
to be relocated left of station 22+60 (see figures). The proposed work will impact 0.07
acre of bottomland hardwood forested wetland within wetland site 2. The scope of work
will include clearing and grubbing, excavation and filling in a rectangular area measuring
approximately 8 x 38 meters.
Please modify the existing permit to allow this work to go forward. Insofar as
compensatory mitigation is concerned, the Department offers to provide up to 0.14 acre
of in-kind credit at the Haw's Run Mitigation Site. Alternatively, in an attempt to
provide mitigation within the local watershed, you are asked to consider applying the
0.14 acre against the overall compensatory wetland mitigation package for the Smith
Creek Parkway (U-92 A/B). This plan provides over 87 acres of total compensation
including 9.8 acres of restoration credits for impacts totaling only 6.5 acres.

SUBJECT: Application for Modification to Dai Permit No. 199603836 for the
Construction of a four-lane divided highway on New Location from 23rd Street to Third
Street, TVilmingtort, Neiv Hanover County. North Carolina; State Project No.8.2230102;
Federal Aid Proiect No. J11A?11 Af 585](2); TIP No. U-92.1113
The Department recently discovered that a small section of sanitary sewer line will have
to be relocated left of station 22+60 (see figures). The proposed work will impact 0.07
acre of bottomland hardwood forested wetland within wetland site 2. The scope of work
will include clearing and grubbing, excavation and filling in a rectangular area measuring
approximately 8 x 38 meters.
Please modify the existing permit to allow this work to go forward. Insofar as
compensatory mitigation is concerned, the Department offers to provide up to 0.14 acre
of in-kind credit at the Haw's Run Mitigation Site. Alternatively, in an attempt to
provide mitigation within the local watershed, you are asked to consider applying the
0.14 acre against the overall compensatory wetland mitigation package for the Smith
Creek Parkway (U-92 A/B). This plan provides over 87 acres of total compensation
including 9.8 acres of restoration credits for impacts totaling only 6.5 acres.
A separate letter is being sent to the Division of Coastal Management requesting that the
impacts resulting from the relocated sewer line be authorized by a Letter of Refinement to
the CAMA Major Development Permit. A check in the amount of $200.00 is being
forwarded under separate cover to the Division of Water Quality to cover the cost of the
Section 401 modification.

Subject: New Hanover County, Smith Creek Parkway (Sections A and B)
TIP No. U-92A/B, State Project No. 8.2250102
COE Action ID No. 199603836
On July 10, 2000, the North Carolina Department of Transportation submitted a
permit application for the subject project. On September 29, 2000 the NC Division of
Water Quality issued a Section 401 permit, and on December 12, 2000 the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers issued a Section 404 permit for this project.
Since the permits were received, a small discrepancy in the permit drawings was
found in the area around the existing Third Street Bridge (Site 1 of U-92A). In order to
avoid working directly in the CAMA jurisdictional wetlands, the temporary work bridges
will be extended. This change will not affect the amount of permanent wetland impact
for the project, and will slightly reduce the amount of temporary wetland impact. This
change is reflected in the attached drawings, which replace the corresponding pages in
the previously submitted permit drawings.
If you have any questions or need additional information please call Ms. Sue
Brady at [phone] ext. 270.
Sincerely,
William . Gilmore, P.E., Manager

Dear Mr. Gilmore:
Reference the Department of the Army permit issued on December 12, 2000 for the subject
project and your letter dated January 30, 2001 requesting a permit modification to the permit
drawing for Wetland Site 1 of U-92A that shows a temporary workbridge near STA 12+00.
The permit drawing for Wetland Site 1 of U-92A shows a temporary workbridge that will
be used for construction access across jurisdictional wetlands, associated with the Northeast
Cape Fear River, near STA 12+00. Based on recent information from the NCDOT, the
authorized temporary workbridge does not extend to the CAMA boundary. You have requested
a permit modification to authorize extension of the temporary workbridge at Wetland Site 1 of
U-92A to the CAMA boundary. This revision does not change the amount of permanent wetland
impacts associated with this project.
Your DA permit is hereby modified to allow the temporary Work Bridge at Wetland Site 1
to be extended to the CAMA Boundary along the Northeast Cape Fear River near STA 12+00.
The permit drawing for Wetland Site 1 of U-92A, attached to your letter dated January 30, 2001,
which reflects this extension, replaces the permit drawing for Wetland Site 1 of U-92A of the
permit issued on December 12, 2000.

NORTH CAROLINA 401 WATER QUALITY CERTIFICATION
THIS CERTIFICATION is issued in conformity with the requirements of Section 401 Public Laws 92-
500 and 95-217 of the United States and subject to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
Regulations in 15 NCAC 2H, Section .0500. The attached modification authorizes no additional impacts to
wetlands or streams. Rather, the certification authorizes the design changes to Site I as described in the
correspondence dated January 31, 200. It should be noted the modification is applicable only to the
proposed changes presented in the January 31, 2001 correspondence. All the authorized activities and
conditions of certification associated with the original Water Quality Certification dated September 29,
2000 and all other corresponding modifications still apply except where superceded by this certification.
The application provides adequate assurance that the discharge of till material into the proposed wetlands in
conjunction with the proposed development will not result in a violation of applicable Water Quality
Standards and discharge guidelines. Therefore, the State of North Carolina certifies that this activity will
not violate the applicable portions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306, 307 of PL 92-500 and PL 95-217 if
conducted in accordance with the application and conditions hereinafter set forth.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you submitted in your application, as described in
the Public Notice. Should your project change, you are required to notify the DWQ and submit a new
application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval
letter, and is thereby responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland tills for this project
(now or in the future exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC
2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to remain valid, you are required to comply with all the
conditions listed below. In addition, you should obtain all other federal, state or local permits before
proceeding with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion control, Coastal
Stormwater, Non-discharge and Water Supply watershed regulations.
Condition(s) of Certification:
Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices which equal or exceed those outlined in the
most recent version of two manuals. Either the "North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control
Planning and Design Manual" or the "North Carolina Surface Mining Manual" (available from the
Division of Land Resources in the DEHNR Regional or Central Offices). The control practices
shall be utilized to prevent exceedances of the appropriate turbidity water quality standard (50
NTUs in all fresh water streams and rivers not designated as trout waters; 25 NTUs in all lakes
and reservoirs, and all saltwater classes; and 10 NTUs in trout waters);
2. All sediment and erosion control measures placed in wetlands or waters shall be removed and
the natural grade restored after the Division of Land Resources has released the project;
3. Measures shall be taken to prevent live or fresh concrete from coming into contact with
waters of the state until the concrete has hardened;
4. There shall be no excavation from or waste disposal into jurisdictional wetlands or waters
associated with this permit without appropriate modification of this permit. Should waste or
burrow sites be located in wetlands or stream, compensatory mitigation will be required since it is
a direct impact from road construction activities;
5. No additional compensatory mitigation shall be done in accordance with this modification.
6. All other conditions written into previous Water Quality Certifications for this project still apply.
Violations of any condition herein set forth shall result in revocation of this Certification and may result in
criminal and/or civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions
are made conditions of the Federal 404 and/or coastal Area Management Act Permit. This Certification
shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA permit.

If this Certification is unacceptable to you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request
within sixty (60) days following receipt of this Certification. This request must be in the form of a written
petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of
Administrative Hearings. P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. If modifications are made to an
original Certification, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing on the modifications upon written
request within sixty (60) days following receipt of the Certification. Unless such demands are made, this
Certification shall be final and binding.
This the 31" day of January 31, 2001

Re: Permit Application for the construction of the Smith Creek Parkway in New Hanover County
DWQ No. 001045; T.I.P. No. U-092.
Dear Mr. Gilmore:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your submittal for a 401 Water Quality Certification for the
aforementioned project. Review of your application revealed it lacking necessary information required for
making an informed permit decision. The permit application was deficient in the following areas:
The discussion presented in the permit application that describes the construction methods for the
proposed bridge piles is incomplete. The NCDOT will need to submit a detailed proposal describing
the proposed construction techniques for the placement of bridge piles. The application states, "Due to
on-site soil conditions, it may be necessary to use jetting to set the piles for the proposed bridge...".
The NCDOT needs to explain in detail the "on-site soil conditions" that require jetting in jurisdictional
areas. It should be noted that the NCDWQ is not necessarily opposed to the use of jetting to place
bridge piles. If there are legitimate engineering constraints that require the use of jetting to construct
the bridge, then the NCDWQ is willing to approve the method, provided a plan is developed to address
the containment and cleanup of sediment displaced from the operation. Therefore, a complete
application will require: 1) a detailed discussion explaining the need to use jetting for the placement of
bridge piles, 2) a plan explaining the proposed methods for containing sediment during the jetting
operation, and 3) a plan for the cleanup of sediments upon completion of the pile placement. In the
absence of an appropriate technical rationale for the use of jetting, the NCDWQ would prefer the
NCDOT use more environmentally sensitive construction techniques, such as drilled shaft construction
with accompanying sediment curtains or pile driving.
Therefore, pursuant to 15A NCAC 2h .0507(a)(4), we will have to place the permit application on hold
until we are supplied the necessary information. Furthermore, until the information is received by the NC
Division of Water Quality, we request (by copy of this letter) that the US Army Corps of Engineers place
the permit application on hold.

9. PROTECT DESCRIUIO
The proposed Smith Creek Parkway project will connect Eastwood Road (US 17) with Third Street
(NC 133) at the Northeast Cape Fear River Bridge. The project was designed as a by-pass of the City
of Wilmington downtown area to alleviate traffic congestion on Market Street (US 17). The sections
of the Smith Creek Parkway between Eastwood Road and 23rd Street have already been completed.
This project is the final 3.6 mile section, between 23rd Street and 3rd Street, including a realignment
of the Northeast Cape Fear River bridge and two bridge crossings of Smith Creek. The project has
been in the coordinated interagency review and planning process since the early 1980s. This 12 step
procedure integrates the requirements of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA) into the development and design of the final proposed project. Environmental
documents that were completed during this planning and review process include; Final Environmental
Impact Statement (1991), Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (1998), and Smith
Creek Parkway (Sections A & B) Compensatory Mitigation Plan (Revised 6/29/00). Your Agency's
copies of these documents should be used for reference and specific detailed information during the
review of this project.
The proposed highway alignment is primarily north of Smith Creek, except for the two crossings. The
proposed alignment would impact jurisdictional wetlands and perennial streams in eleven (11)
different areas. The majority of the project's wetland impacts (5.5 acres) affect areas of Coastal Plain
Bottomland Forest systems. These areas are dominated by both hardwood and softwood species
including: Sweet Gum (Lquidambar sta 'flue), Black Gum yssa sylvatica), Red Maple (Am
n?bnim), Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron tulip'&m), and Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda). At the Smith
Creek crossing sites, wetland impacts (1.4 acres) affect Tidal Cypress/Gum Wooded Swamp.
Hydrophytic vegetation includes Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum), Black Gum (hj, ssa s,, lvy_atica),
and Red Maple (Acer rubrum).Adjacent areas of tidal marsh and shrub wetland vegetation include
various shrubs; Black Willow ( 'x ), Silverling (Baccharis halimifolia), and Wax Myrtle
(Myrica cerfera); with borders of Giant Cordgrass (tea cynocoroidesl, Saw Grass (Cladium
spp.), Narrow-leaf Cat-tail (Typha angus ifo ia) and Bulrush (S ' = spp.).
The waters of Smith Creek are classified as C Sw by the NC Division of Water Quality. The waters
of Smith Creek are classified as Inland waters. The adjacent Northeast Cape Fear River is a
designated Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries, and although Smith
Creek functions similarly as a nursery area, the PNA designation cannot be extrapolated to the Inland
Waters classification.
The NCDOT proposes to construct this portion of the Smith Creek Parkway (TIP No. U-92A/B)
totaling 3.6 miles, on a new undeveloped right-of-way in New Hanover County. The project would
consist of a four-lane divided highway with two (2) four-lane bridges over Smith Creek. The highway
would include a new interchange at North Third Street which would require the reconfiguration of
the east end of the existing Northeast Cape Fear River bridge to allow for a new approach from the
proposed Smith Creek Parkway. The project would also include the replacement of the existing 23rd
Street bridge over Smith Creek. Efforts have been made to reduce the project's wetland impacts by
extending the length of the proposed bridges. The western bridge crossing of Smith Creek, near
Castle Hayne Road, would be 3,100 feet in length, 82 feet wide, and provide a navigational vertical
Smith Creek Parkway/ NC DOT-DOH
Page 3
clearance of 26 feet. The eastern bridge crossing of Smith Creek, near 23rd Street , would be 2,106
feet in length, directional separates each 49 feet wide (total width outside to outside 120 feet), and
provide a navigational vertical clearance of 26 feet. The replacement bridge at 23rd Street would be
262 feet in length, 63 feet wide, and provide a navigational vertical clearance of 12.8 feet. This is an
increase in vertical clearance of 1.3 feet from the existing bridge. The new approach to the Northeast
Cape Fear River Bridge would be 567 feet in length, 66 feet wide, and provide a height of 39 feet
above the wetlands. This proposed section of bridge is not located over navigable waters. To facilitate
construction of the permanent bridges, temporary work bridges would be constructed adjacent on one
or both sides of the permanent bridge alignment. Bridge construction over open water area would be
facilitated from floating work barges. In addition to the bridge work, an existing box culvert would be
extended for 95 linear feet to allow for a wider road width. The extension would match existing
culvert dimensions (7 ft. X 6 ft.).
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
This portion of the proposed Smith Creek Parkway project (TIP U-92A/B) would impact a total of 6.9
acres of jurisdictional wetlands. Of that amount, approximately 1.4 acres of tidal wetlands containing
coastal wetland species would be consumed by the project , as well as, additional temporary impacts
associated with the construction of the temporary work bridges. In addition, there would be 875
linear feet of jurisdictional stream impacts and approximately 87 acres of highground disturbance.
NCDOT proposes to mitigate for the Smith Creek Parkway's wetlands and stream impacts at six (6)
sites within or near the proposed project. They have provided a compensatory mitigation plan for the
project that describes the mitigation sites in detail. A summary of the mitigation totals is listed below.
1. Restoration(11.7 acres) and preservation (16 acres) of Tidal Swamp Forest
2. Restoration (1.1 acres) and Enhancement (11.7 acres) of Tidal Freshwater Marsh
3. Creation (1.3 acres) of Bottomland Hardwood Forest
4. Creation (2.7 acres) of Tidal Swamp Forest
6. Preservation (47.3 acres) of Tidal Cypress-Gum Swamp
Total Wetland Mitigation - 92.8 acres.
NCDOT proposes to mitigate for the Smith Creek Parkway's stream impacts through the North
Carolina Wetland Restoration Program for 875 linear feet of stream channel restoration.

Dear Mr. Stroud; _,?',1TE o!?r.u, C
Subject: New Hanover County, Construction of Smith Creek Parkway from Twenty-
third Street to Third Street, Wilmington, TIP No. U-92 A and B, State Project
No. 8.2250102.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to construct
Sections A and B of Smith Creek Parkway, a controlled-access, four-lane divided highway.
These sections extend from Twenty-third Street to Third Street in the City of Wilmington, and
total approximately 3.6 miles in length on new alignment. This facility will connect with the
previously constructed Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway on the eastern end, and the NC
117 Northeast Cape Fear River Bridge on the western end. When completed, the Smith Creek
Parkway will serve as a bypass around downtown Wilmington. allowing traffic to move more
easily from east to west and reducing congestion on Market Street.
The proposed project contains one area of coastal wetlands, two crossings of Smith
Creek, a culvert extension, and nine areas of impact to non-coastal wetlands (see attached
permit drawings). The area of coastal wetlands and the first crossing of Smith Creek are in
Section A of the project (U-92A Site 1 and U-92A Site 3, respectively). The second crossing
of Smith Creek and the culvert extension are in Section B of the project (U-92B Site 3 and U-
92B Site 5, respectively). In addition to the impacts associated with construction of the Smith
Creek Parkway, the existing 23`d Street bridge will also be replaced as part of this project, as
shown on the permit drawings for U-92B Site 3. Impacts to wetlands and streams for each
section are presented in tabular form in the packets of permit drawings.
We request that the proposed work be authorized under the appropriate Coastal Area
Management Act (CAMA) permit. Enclosed is a permit application for a CAMA Major
T Development Permit, including permit drawings, roadway design sheets. mitigation plan, and
a check for the $475.00 application fee.
This project will also require a Clean Water Act Section 404 Individual Permit from
the Corps of Engineers and a Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Applications for these permits were
submitted to the Corps and DWQ in June 1999 at the Corps' request, in order to help satisfy
concerns about the mitigation for Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway. These applications
have now been activated, and are being reviewed. In addition to the Section 404 and 401
permits, this project will also require a Coast Guard permit. This application has been
submitted and is being reviewed.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please call Ms. Sue Brady at

Dear Sir:
Subject: New Hanover County, Smith Creek Parkway (Sections A and B)
TIP No. U-92A/13, State Project No. 8.2250102
COE Action ID No. 199603836
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to
construct Sections A and B of Smith Creek Parkway, a controlled-access, four-lane,
divided highway. These sections extend from Twenty-third Street to Third Street in the
City of Wilmington, and total approximately.' .6 miles in length on new alignment. This
facility will connect with the previously constructed Section C of the Smith Creek
Parkway on the eastern end, and the NC 117 Northeast Cape Fear River Bridge on the
western end. When completed, the Smith Creek Parkway Nvill serve as a bypass around
downtown Wilmington, allowing traffic to move more easily from east to west and
reducing congestion on Market Street.
On May 28. 1999, the North Carolina Department of Transportation submitted a
preliminary permit application for the subject project. This application was submitted at
the request of the Corps of Engineers in order to address concerns about the mitigation
for TIP No. U-92C (Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway). At this time, NCDOT
would like to activate the permit application for U-92A/B.
Summary of project impacts: Impacts to jurisdictional areas of TIP No. U-92A and B
consist of 6.9 acres of fill in wetlands and 875 feet of impact to streams.
Section U-92A: Impacts to jurisdictional areas of Section U-92A consist of
2.7 acres of fill in wetlands and 344 feet of impact to streams.

Section U-9213: Impacts to jurisdictional areas of Section U-92B consist of
4.2 acres of fill in wetlands and 531 feet of impact to streams..
Mitigation: We have avoided and minimized impacts to the maximum extent
possible. For the remaining impacts to jurisdictional wetlands and streams,
we propose compensatory mitigation at six sites. These are the Third Street,
McRae Street, Smith Creek, Waste Treatment, County Property, and North
Kerr Avenue Mitigation Sites. The mitigation plans for these sites are part of
this application. Stream impacts will be mitigated through an agreement with
the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program.
Due to difficulties in accessing the Smith Creek Mitigation Site, it will be
necessary to construct a temporary haul road across the wetland area located behind the
Corbett Package Company (from approximately Station 30+60 to Station 31+80, see
attached roadway design sheets). This haul road will allow access to the mitigation site
from the east, and will facilitate removal of debris and solid waste materials from the
mitigation site. The roadway will be 15 feet wide, and will have 3:1 side slopes. The
road will be placed as close to the edge of the right-of-way as possible, minimizing
impact to the wetland. After grading on the site is complete, the haul road will be
removed.
Due to on-site soil conditions, it may be necessary to use jetting to set the piles for
the proposed bridges at the intersection of the Smith Creek Parkway and the NC 117/

will be taken to contain the resulting material, and remove it without undue disturbance
to the surrounding area. It is possible that this may be done from the proposed work
bridges.
NEPA DOCUMENT STATUS
A Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FSEIS) for the Smith
Creek Parkway (A and B Sections) was approved by the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) on March 30, 1998. This document describes the need for transportation
improvements in an east-west linkage corridor to avoid congestion in downtown
Wilmington, especially on Market Street. In addition, existing and projected conditions
of the study area were described, including natural systems and wetlands. Alignments
were evaluated with respect to cost, social and economic impacts, and environmental
consequences. The Record of Decision (ROD) was approved on August 13, 1998.
Copies of the FSEIS and ROD have been provided to regulatory review agencies
involved in the approval process. Additional copies will be provided upon request.
2. Section U-9213: Impacts to jurisdictional areas of Section U-92B consist of
4.2 acres of fill in wetlands and 531 feet of impact to streams..
Mitigation: We have avoided and minimized impacts to the maximum extent
possible. For the remaining impacts to jurisdictional wetlands and streams,
we propose compensatory mitigation at six sites. These are the Third Street,
McRae Street, Smith Creek, Waste Treatment, County Property, and North
Kerr Avenue Mitigation Sites. The mitigation plans for these sites are part of
this application. Stream impacts will be mitigated through an agreement with
the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program.
Due to difficulties in accessing the Smith Creek Mitigation Site, it will be
necessary to construct a temporary haul road across the wetland area located behind the
Corbett Package Company (from approximately Station 30+60 to Station 31+80, see
attached roadway design sheets). This haul road will allow access to the mitigation site
from the east, and will facilitate removal of debris and solid waste materials from the
mitigation site. The roadway will be 15 feet wide, and will have 3:1 side slopes. The
road will be placed as close to the edge of the right-of-way as possible, minimizing
impact to the wetland. After grading on the site is complete, the haul road will be
removed.
Due to on-site soil conditions, it may be necessary to use jetting to set the piles for
the proposed bridges at the intersection of the Smith Creek Parkway and the NC 117/
Third Street bridge over the Northeast Cape Fear River. If this is necessary, measures
will be taken to contain the resulting material, and remove it without undue disturbance
to the surrounding area. It is possible that this may be done from the proposed work
bridges.

DESIGN STATUS
The schedule for the design of Sections A and B of the Smith Creek Parkway is
proceeding based on the letting of the construction contracts (Let Dates). As of May 24,
2000, the let date for TIP No. U-92A is November 2001 (production let date 1-16-01),
and the let date for TIP No. U-92B is November 2003 (production let date 9-17-02). The
drawings included in this permit application for Section B are Preliminary Designs, as
final designs are not yet complete.
RESOURCE STATUS
For information on the wetland delineations and protected species, please
reference the preliminary permit application, submitted May 28, 1999.
MITIGATION OPTIONS
The Corps of Engineers has adopted, through the Council on Environmental
Quality (CEQ), a wetland mitigation policy that embraces the concept 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. Mitigation of
wetland and surface water 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). Executive Order 11990 (Protection of
Wetlands) and DOT Order 5660.1 A (Preservation of the Nation's Wetlands), emphasize
protection of the functions and values provided by wetlands. These directives require
that new construction in wetlands be avoided as much as possible, and that all practicable
measures are taken to minimize or mitigate impacts to wetlands.
The NCDOT is committed to incorporating reasonable and practicable design
features to avoid and minimize wetland impacts, and to provide full compensatory
mitigation of remaining wetland impacts. Avoidance measures were taken during the
planning and EIS/ROD phases, minimization measures were incorporated as part of the
project design. For a discussion of the avoidance and minimization measures that were
taken as a part of this project, please see the original permit application, submitted May
28, 1999.
SUMMARY OF COMPENSATORY MITIGATION ACTIVITIES
NCDOT proposes to provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable impacts to
wetlands resulting from the construction of TIP No. U-92A and B. as well as the
remaining amount of mitigation required for TIP No. U-92C, through the use of six
mitigation sites. These sites are known as the Third Street Site, McRae Street Site, Smith
Creek Site, Waste Treatment Site, County Property Site, and Kerr Avenue Site. All are
located in the City of Wilmington and are adjacent to Smith Creek, except the Third
Street Site, which is adjacent to the Northeast Cape Fear River. The Third Street, McRae
Street, Smith Creek, Waste Treatment, and County Property Sites are adjacent to the
proposed project sections, and the Kerr Avenue Site is located approximately 2 miles
northeast of the eastern end of the project. These sites will help restore, enhance, and/or
preserve the function of the floodplains of the waterbodies impacted by the proposed
project. The Revised Mitigation Plan for these sites is attached. Acreage for each type of
mitigation at each site is given in Table 1.

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to construct
Sections A and B of the Smith Creek Parkway from Third Street to Twenty-third Street in the
City of Wilmington (TIP No. U-92A/B). The proposed project is a 3.6-mile divided four-lane
limited-access roadway. This facility will connect with the previously constructed Section C of
the Smith Creek Parkway on the eastern end, and the Third Street Northeast Cape Fear River
Bridge on the western end. When completed, the Smith Creek Parkway will serve as a bypass
around downtown Wilmington, allowing traffic to move more easily from east to west and
reducing congestion on Market Street. The alignment of the project is generally north of Smith
Creek, and crosses the creek twice. The environmental impacts of the project have been
addressed in several documents, most recently the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement (FHWA, 1998). Efforts have been made to reduce the acreage of wetlands impacted
by this project. By analyzing several alternatives for potential impacts and extending bridges to
avoid wetlands, the total area of impacted wetlands was reduced to 6.9 acres. The total amount
of streams impacted by the proposed project is 875 linear feet.
2.0 IMPACTED WETLAND RESOURCES
2.1 Methodology
Impacted jurisdictional wetlands and streams were delineated using the parameters
provided in the "Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (87 Manual)" (DOA 1987).
The delineations were done in May 1995 and January 1999, and confirmed by the US Army
Corps of Engineers.
2.2 Affected Environment
A total of 6.9 acres of jurisdictional wetlands will be impacted by the construction of the
project. These wetlands are described as Coastal Plain Bottomland Hardwood Forest (5.5 acres)
and Tidal Cypress-Gum Swamp Forest (1.4 acres). These communities have been described in
the Natural Resources Technical Memorandum for Jurisdictional Wetlands, Biotic Communities
and Protected Species (HNTB 1994).
3.0 WETLAND MITIGATION SITES
Several sites will provide compensatory mitigation to offset unavoidable impacts to
wetlands as a result of construction of TIP No. U-92A/B. These sites are:
• Third Street Site (at the Third Street Bridge)
• McRae Street Site (at the present location of McRae Street)
• Smith Creek Site (behind the Corbett Lumber Company)
• Waste Treatment Site (at the waste treatment plant on Division Drive)
• County Property Site (on New Hanover County property adjacent to Smith Creek)
• Kerr Avenue Site (near North Kerr Avenue)
These sites are all within the City of Wilmington, and are adjacent to Smith Creek, except
the Third Street Site which is adjacent to the Northeast Cape Fear River. The locations of these
sites are shown in Figure 1.
3.1 Site Descriptions
3.1.1 Third Street Site
This site is approximately 1.3 acres in size and is located where the Smith Creek Parkway
will join the Third Street Bridge at the Northeast Cape Fear River. Vegetation on this site
consists mainly of weedy species such as Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), kudzu (Pueria
lobata), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), and Japanese
honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), as well as upland vegetation such as loblolly pine (Pinus
taeda), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), southern magnolia (.Magnolia grandijlora), grape
(Vitis rotundifolia), and greenbriers (Smilax spp.). Soils in this area are mapped as Urban,
indicating disturbance from development so that the soil properties have been altered to the
extent that a soil series cannot be recognized. Grading this area down and planting with
hardwood trees and shrubs will result in the creation of 1.3 acres of bottomland hardwood forest.
3.1.2 McRae Street Site
This site is approximately 13.8 acres in size, and consists of tidal marsh south of Castle
Hayne Road, adjacent to Smith Creek. Currently, McRae Street acts as a dike, with the only
hydrological exchange between the east and west sides of the road occurring through two 18-inch
diameter culverts. The proposed project design calls for removing the portion of McRae Street
that passes through the marsh and replacing it with a low bridge, approximately 6.5 feet above
the surface of the marsh. This will result in the restoration of 1.1 acres of tidal marsh wetland
within the present footprint of McRae Street and enhancement of 12.7 acres of tidal marsh
wetland to the west of the road, through restored hydrological connection. Soils in this area are
mapped as Dorovan, which is listed as hydric.
Vegetation on this site consists mainly of black needlerush (Juncus roemariancts),
arrowhead (Sagittaria falcata), and narrow-leaved cattail (Typha angustifolia). Shrubs such as
black willow (Salix nigra), wax myrtle (Afyrica cerifera), and silverling (Baccharis halimifolia)
are present along the edges of the marsh, and there are numerous dead bald cypress (Taxodium
distichum) standing in the center.
3.1.3 Smith Creek Site
This site is approximately 27.7 acres in size and is located south of Castle Hayne Road
behind the Corbett Lumber Company, adjacent to Smith Creek. The mitigation plan for the
Smith Creek Site has already been written, as it was originally planned to offset wetland impacts
associated with construction of Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway. For a description of this
site, see the Compensatory Mitigation Plan for Smith Creek, Spring Branch, and Dreyfours
South Mitigation Sites (NCDOT 1996). Since this Mitigation Plan was written, an additional 2.8

These sites are all within the City of Wilmington, and are adjacent to Smith Creek, except
the Third Street Site which is adjacent to the Northeast Cape Fear River. The locations of these
sites are shown in Figure 1.

3.13 Smith Creek Site
This site is approximately 27.7 acres in size and is located south of Castle Hayne Road
behind the Corbett Lumber Company, adjacent to Smith Creek. The mitigation plan for the
Smith Creek Site has already been written, as it was originally planned to offset wetland impacts
associated with construction of Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway. For a description of this
site, see the Compensatory Mitigation Plan for Smith Creek, Spring Branch, and Dreyfours
South Mitigation Sites (NCDOT 1996). Since this Mitigation Plan was written, an additional 2.8

acres of mitigation has been proposed for construction in the area under the proposed bridge.
This will result in the restoration of 11.7 acres and preservation of 16.0 acres of Tidal Swamp
Forest.
3.1.4 Waste Treatment Site
This site is 0.8 acres in size, and is located adjacent to the Bridge Maintenance Mitigation
Site (currently under construction), on the present site of a New Hanover County waste treatment
facility. This site is heavily maintained, and vegetation found here includes weedy species such
as fescue (Festuca spp.), henbit (Lamium amplexicaule), narrow-leaved plantain (Plantago
lanceolata), dandelion (Taraxacum offinale), geranium (Geranium spp.), vetch (Vicia spp.),
verbena (Verbena bonariensis), red clover (Trifolium pratense), blackberry (Rubus spp.), and
silverling. Soils in this area are classified as Urban, indicating disturbance from development so
that the soil properties have been altered to the extent that a soil series cannot be recognized.
Mitigation activities on this site will result in the creation of 0.8 acres of Tidal Swamp Forest.
3.1.5 County Property Site
This site is comprised of three adjacent areas, totaling 1.9 acres, and is located between
the CSX Railroad and Twenty-third Street on property currently owned by New Hanover
County. This site is currently upland, and vegetation found here includes loblolly pine, southern
magnolia, red maple (Acer rubrum), tulip tree, grapes, and greenbrier. Soils in this area are
classified as Kenansville fine sand (0-3% slope) in the eastern portions of the site and Craven
fine sandy loam (1-4%) in the western portion, both of which are listed as non-hydric. Mitigation
activities on this site will result in the creation of 1.9 acres of Tidal Swamp Forest.
3.1.6 Kerr Avenue Site
This site consists of approximately 47 acres of Cypress-Gum Swamp preservation, and is
located east of North Kerr Avenue and north of Smith Creek (Figure 2). Soils at this site are
classified as Dorovan in the southern portion and Johnston in the northern portion. These soils
are both listed as hydric. There are small areas of Murville tine sand and Baymeade fine sand in
the extreme northwestern side, both of which are listed as non-hydric.
This area is dominated by bald cypress, with loblolly pine in the higher elevation areas.
Other species in the canopy include red maple, sweetgum, water oak (Ouercus nigra), and
sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana). The understory is composed of sweet pepperbush (Clethra
alnifolia), fetterbush (Lyonia lucida), American holly (Ilex opaca), and sweetbay. Vines present
in this community include greenbrier, poison ivy, muscadine grapes, and Japanese honeysuckle.

4.0 WETLAND MITIGATION ACTIVITIES
4.1 Third Street Site
Mitigation activities on this site will involve grading down the area adjacent to and under
the Third Street Bridge, where the Smith Creek Parkway joins the bridge (see attached design
sheets). This area was historically upland and/or filled wetlands; it will be graded to an elevation
of 3.6 feet and planted with an appropriate selection of plant species. Shrub species such as
buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis), Virginia sweetspire (Itea virginica), smooth alder
(Alnus serrulata), and red chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia) will be planted near and under the
bridges. Bottomland hardwood tree species such as laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), overcup oak
(Q. lyrata), willow oak (Q. phellos), and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and will be planted
in areas farther from the bridges, as available. The trees/shrubs will be planted at a density of
approximately 680 plants per acre. Construction of this site will take place after all road and
bridge construction activities in the area are completed.
4.2 McRae Street Site
Wetlands will be restored by first removing the section of McRae Street that passes
through the marsh (see attached design sheets). Then the fill material associated with the road
will be removed and the site graded down to an elevation similar to that of the surrounding areas
of unfilled wetlands. If necessary, the soil will be rehabilitated in order to facilitate colonization
from the adjacent marsh. The road will be replaced on a low bridge, approximately 6.5 feet
above the marsh. No planting activities are planned for this site, as it already supports marsh
vegetation, and colonization of the graded area under portions of the proposed bridge is expected
to occur quickly.
4.3 Smith Creek Site
The mitigation plan for the Smith Creek Site has already been written and submitted, as it
was originally planned to offset wetland impacts associated with construction of Section C of the
Smith Creek Parkway. For a description of the site and proposed mitigation activities, see the
Compensatory Mitigation Plan for Smith Creek, Spring Branch, and Dreyfours South Mitigation
Sites (NCDOT 1996). This plan will be implemented as written, except for the expansion of the
area of wetland restoration to include the area under the proposed bridge over Smith Creek (see
attached design sheets). No trees will be planted in this area, as it will be under a bridge;
however, herbaceous vegetation will be planted.
The area not under the proposed bridge will be planted with bald cypress (Taxodium
distichum), big cordgrass (Spartina cynosuroides), and sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense). It is
uncertain whether the bald cypress will survive due to changes in the hydrologic regime of Smith
Creek. Increased tidal amplitude and natural sea level rise, as well as the increased salinity in
Smith Creek in the recent past, has caused a significant reduction in the density of bald cypress in
the wetlands surrounding the creek (Hackney and Yelverton, 1990). Trees as tall as possible will
be utilized for planting in the restoration area. This will allow the crowns to remain above the

4.0 WETLAND MITIGATION ACTIVITIES
4.1 Third Street Site
Mitigation activities on this site will involve grading down the area adjacent to and under
the Third Street Bridge, where the Smith Creek Parkway joins the bridge (see attached design

(O. lyrata), willow oak (Q. phellos), and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and will be planted
in areas farther from the bridges, as available. The trees/shrubs will be planted at a density of
approximately 680 plants per acre. Construction of this site will take place after all road and
bridge construction activities in the area are completed.
4.2 McRae Street Site
Wetlands will be restored by first removing the section of McRae Street that passes
through the marsh (see attached design sheets). Then the fill material associated with the road
will be removed and the site graded down to an elevation similar to that of the surrounding areas
of unfilled wetlands. If necessary, the soil will be rehabilitated in order to facilitate colonization

vegetation, and colonization of the graded area under portions of the proposed bridge is expected
to occur quickly.
-1.3 Smith Creek Site
The mitigation plan for the Smith Creek Site has already been written and submitted, as it
was originally planned to offset wetland impacts associated with construction of Section C of the
Smith Creek Parkway. For a description of the site and proposed mitigation activities, see the
.nnPrsatorv Mitigation Plan for Smith Creek, Spring Branch, and. Dre-fours Soutb Mitigation

area of wetland restoration to include the area under the proposed bridge over Smith Wreck (see
attached design sheets). No trees will be planted in this area, as it will be under a bridge;
however, herbaceous vegetation will be planted.
The area not under the proposed bridge will be planted with bald cypress (Taxodium
distichum), big cordgrass (Spartina cynosuroides), and sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense). It is
uncertain whether the bald cypress will survive due to changes in the hydrologic regime of Smith
Creek. Increased tidal amplitude and natural sea level rise, as well as the increased salinity in
Smith Creek in the recent past, has caused a significant reduction in the density of bald cypress in
the wetlands surrounding the creek (Hackney and Yelverton, 1990). Trees as tall as possible will
be utilized for planting in the restoration area. This will allow the crowns to remain above the
4
elevation of the highest tides and help to increase their chance of survival. The cypress trees will
be planted at a density of 108 trees per acre.
Herbaceous marsh vegetation (big cordgrass and sawgrass) will be planted over the whole
site, including the area under the proposed bridge, at a density of 4840 plants per acre. It may be
necessary to plant a 75:25 mix of Spartina:Cladium, rather than 50:50, due to difficulty in
obtaining Cladium. Colonization by other native species is expected to result in the development
of species composition in the mitigation area similar to that of the relatively undisturbed flood
plain of Smith Creek.
4.4 Waste Treatment Site
Mitigation activities on this site will involve removal of the existing waste treatment
facility and grading the area outside the till slope of the proposed roadway to an elevation of
approximately 2.0-2.2 feet, adjusted as necessary to tie into the adjacent Bridge Maintenance
Mitigation Site and existing natural wetlands (see attached design sheets). The area will then be
planted with bald cypress, big cordgrass, and sawgrass. A mentioned above, it is uncertain
whether the bald cypress will survive due to changes in the hydrologic regime of Smith Creek.
Trees as tall as possible will also be used in the planted areas of this site. The cypress trees will
be planted at a density of 108 trees per acre.
Herbaceous marsh vegetation (big cordgrass and sawgrass) will be planted between the
trees, at a density of approximately 4840 plants per acre. It may be necessary to plant a 75:25
mix of Spartina:Cladium, rather than 50:50, due to difficulty in obtaining Cladium.
Colonization by other native species is expected to result in the development of species
composition in the mitigation area similar to that of the relatively undisturbed flood plain of
Smith Creek.

Mitigation activities on this site will involve grading the area outside the fill slope of the
proposed roadway to an elevation of approximately 2.0-2.2 feet, adjusted as necessary to tie into
the adjacent existing natural wetlands (see attached design sheets). The area will then be planted
with bald cypress, big cordgrass. and sawgrass. Again, it is uncertain whether the bald cypress
will survive due to changes in the hydrologic regime of Smith Creek. Trees as tall as possible
will also be used in the planted areas of this site. The cypress trees will be planted at a density of
108 trees per acre.
Big cordgrass and sawgrass will be planted between the trees at a density of
approximately 4840 plants per acre. It may be necessary to plant a 75:25 mix of
Spartina:Cladium, rather than 50:50, due to difficulty in obtaining Cladium. Colonization by
other native species is expected to result in the development of species composition in the
mitigation area similar to that of the relatively undisturbed flood plain of Smith Creek.

4.6 Kerr Avenue Site
Forty-seven acres of existing Cypress-Gum Swamp (Blackwater Subtype) at the Kerr
Avenue Site will be preserved (see Figure 2). There will be no construction activities (grading or
planting) at this site. The property will be preserved in perpetuity through the transfer of the
deed to a resource agency (public or private) acceptable to the appropriate regulatory agencies.
Covenants and/or restrictions on the deed will be included that will ensure protection of the site
in perpetuity.
5.0 MONITORING PLAN
5.1 Third Street Site
Hydrology:
Two groundwater monitoring wells (40-inch), a surface water gauge, and a rain gauge
will be placed in the planted area of the site. Data from these wells will be collected throughout
the year, with particular attention given to the growing season (February 27 through November
26). Hydrological success of this area will be determined using data from these wells to
demonstrate that inundation or saturation within 12 inches of the surface has existed
consecutively for at least 12.5% of the growing season.
Vegetation:
This site will be monitored through the use of a minimum of two 50-foot x 50-foot
sampling plots, placed within the planted areas. The total number of live trees/shrubs within
each plot will be counted during each monitoring period. The site will be considered successful
if there is a survival rate of 320 trees/shrubs per acre after three years and 259 trees/shrubs per
acre after five years.
5.2 McRae Street Site
No monitoring activities are planned for this property; the site will be graded down to
restore the hydrology of the area, and no planting is planned.
5.3 Smith Creek Site
Hydrology:
Water level data already collected from the Bridge Maintenance Mitigation Site (adjacent
to the Smith Creek Site and the Waste Treatment Site) indicates that an elevation of 2.5 feet
above sea level will result in flooding approximately 37% of the time. In order to ensure that the
Smith Creek Site accomplishes this, the elevations of a series of points located throughout the
site will be measured after grading is complete. This will ensure that the target elevation of the
site is met (2.5 feet above sea level). A tide gauge will be installed on the adjacent Bridge
Maintenance Mitigation Site to monitor the tidal regime in this stretch of Smith Creek and serve
as a reference for the Smith Creek, Bridge Maintenance, Waste Treatment, and County Property
Sites. This gauge will record the water depth in Smith Creek every hour for one growing season

5. Smith Creek Site
Hydrology:
Water level data already collected from the Bridge Maintenance Mitigation Site (adjacent
to the Smith Creek Site and the Waste Treatment Site) indicates that an elevation of 2.5 feet
above sea level will result in flooding approximately 37% of the time. In order to ensure that the
Smith Creek Site accomplishes this, the elevations of a series of points located throughout the
site will be measured after grading is complete. This will ensure that the target elevation of the
site is met (2.5 feet above sea level). A tide gauge will be installed on the adjacent Bridge
Maintenance Mitigation Site to monitor the tidal regime in this stretch of Smith Creek and serve
as a reference for the Smith Creek, Bridge Maintenance, Waste Treatment, and County Property
Sites. This gauge will record the water depth in Smith Creek every hour for one growing season
6
(February 27 through November 26). These data will then be compared to the elevation data to
confirm the period of flooding at the Smith Creek Site.
Vegetation:
Emergent herbaceous vegetation monitoring of the site will utilize a system of sample
plots randomly located within the previously delineated restoration area, using GPS software and
different coordinates each year. The location of the sample plots in the field will be determined
using real-time GPS. Sampling will take place at the end of the growing season. A total of 180
1.0-m' sample plots will be located in the planted area.
In order to assess the success of the site, sample plots will be taken in the planted marsh
areas. Specific success criteria for the marsh restoration will be frequency of emergent
herbaceous vegetation, determined by using the Braun-Blanquet Technique (see Appendix I) as
recommended by the National Marine Fisheries Service. Frequency will be determined by F=
(nc/n,) x 100, where F= frequency, n,= the number of plots where emergent herbaceous
vegetation occurs, and n,.= total number of plots. Density (cover) will be determined by D=
E,,,/n, where D= density, E,?a = the sum of Braun-Blanquet scale values for all plots, and n= the
total number of plots. The site will be considered a success if the calculated value for density
is greater than or equal to 5.0 (75% cover) by the end of the fifth growing season. If
frequency falls below 70% at the end of any growing season, replanting will be undertaken to
reestablish the grass species. If Phragmites australis appears in any monitoring period, in more
than five sampling plots, then the Department of Transportation will consult with the Corps of
Engineers to develop potential control measures.
Bald cypress monitoring will utilize two 100.0 x 100.0 ft sampling plots. These plots
will be placed within the planted areas, and the total number of live trees within the plot counted
during each monitoring period. As mentioned above, changes in the hydrology of Smith Creek
have caused the decline in natural bald cypress populations, and it is uncertain if the planted bald
cypress trees will survive. NCDOT will not be responsible for the success of the cypress trees.
5.4 Waste Treatment Site
Hydrology:
The hydrologic success of this site will be evaluated in the same way described for the
Smith Creek Site. After grading is complete, the elevations of a series of points located
throughout the site will be measured to ensure that the target elevation (2.0-2.2 feet above sea
level) is met. These data will then be compared to data from the tide gauge located at the Bridge
Maintenance Mitigation Site to confirm the period of flooding.
Vegetation:
This site will be monitored using the same protocols described above for the Smith Creek
Site. A total of 30 sampling plots will be taken within the planted area. The success criteria will
be the same as those described for the Smith Creek Site.

NCDOT proposes to provide compensatory mitigation for 875 linear feet of unavoidable
impacts to streams. The North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program has agreed to provide a
total of 875 feet of stream channel restoration.
7.0 IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
Construction of all the wetland mitigation sites and on-site stream mitigation will be
implemented concurrently with the construction of TIP Project Number U-92A/B. The NC
Wetland Restoration Program has been contacted regarding the 875 feet of stream mitigation,
and has agreed to provide it. NCDOT has purchased and holds title to the Kerr Avenue Site.
8.0 AS-BUILT REPORT AND DRAWINGS
As-built descriptions, photographs, and plans describing the Smith Creek, Third Street,
Waste Treatment, and County Property Mitigation Sites will be provided to the appropriate
regulatory agencies within 90 days after the mitigation project is completed. This information
will include, but not be limited to, descriptions of vegetation establishment, vegetation
monitoring plot locations, ground and surface water gauges (if any), and final ground elevations.
9.0 ANNUAL REPORT PREPARATION AND SUBMITTAL
Annual reports for the Smith Creek, Third Street, Waste Treatment, and County Property
Mitigation Sites, including photographs (or copies thereof), will be prepared annually after field
monitoring activities are completed. Vegetation and hydrologic data will be included in these
reports, as well as information on any significant developments on the sites. Copies of these
reports will be submitted to the appropriate regulatory agencies by January 31 of each year
following monitoring for five years after planting the mitigation site.
10.0 CONTINGENCY PLANS
Establishment of cypress trees over the restoration area of the Smith Creek, Waste
Treatment, and County Property Mitigation Sites is proposed, although there is evidence that
they may not survive because of increases in salinity, tidal amplitude, and sea level (Hackney
and Yelverton, 1990). Consequently, cypress mortality may occur and the areas may develop
into emergent marsh communities. The vegetation success criteria will therefore be based on
emergent marsh vegetation.
Should noxious plant species become established on the Third Street, Smith Creek, Waste
Treatment, or County Property Sites, NCDOT will undertake appropriate control measures using
accepted chemical, biological, and/or cultural methods.

11.0 DISPENSATION OF PROPERTY
NCDOT will maintain ownership of the mitigation properties until all mitigation
activities are completed. Although no final plan for dispensation of the properties has been
developed, NCDOT may deed the properties to a resource agency (public or private) acceptable
to the appropriate regulatory agencies. Covenants and/or restrictions on the deeds will be
included that will ensure adequate management and/or protection of the sites in perpetuity.

Dear Mr. Stroud;
DAVID MCCOY
SECRETARY

Subject: New Hanover County, Construction of Smith Creek Parkway from Twenty-
third Street to Third Street, Wilmington, TIP No. U-92 A and B, State Project
No. 8.2250102.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to construct
Sections A and B of Smith Creek Parkway, a controlled-access, four-lane divided highway.
These sections extend from Twenty-third Street to Third Street in the City of Wilmington, and
total approximately 3.6 miles in length on new alignment. This facility will connect with the
previously constructed Section C of the Smith Creek Parkway on the eastern end, and the NC
117 Northeast Cape Fear River Bridge on the western end. When completed, the Smith Creek
Parkway will serve as a bypass around downtown Wilmington, allowing traffic to move more
easily from east to west and reducing congestion on Market Street.
The proposed project contains one area of coastal wetlands, two crossings of Smith
Creek, a culvert extension, and nine areas of impact to non-coastal wetlands (see attached
permit drawings). The area of coastal wetlands and the first crossing of Smith Creek are in
Section A of the project (U-92A Site 1 and U-92A Site 3, respectively). The second crossing
of Smith Creek and the culvert extension are in Section B of the project (U-92B Site 3 and U-
92B Site 5, respectively). In addition to the impacts associated with construction of the Smith
Creek Parkway, the existing 23"' Street bridge will also be replaced as part of this project, as
shown on the permit drawings for U-92B Site 3. Impacts to wetlands and streams for each
section are presented in tabular form in the packets of permit drawings.
We request that the proposed work be authorized under the appropriate Coastal Area
Management Act (CAMA) permit. Enclosed is a permit application for a CAMA Major
