NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION:
Project Setting
Bridge 138 is located on SR 1470 and crosses over the Neuse River at approximately 0.5 miles
northeast of SR 1472 (Biddle Road) near the community of Fort Barnwell in Craven County. Bridge
139 is located on SR 1470 approximately 0.25 miles northeast of Bridge 138 and crosses an
overflow of the Neuse River. Typical elevations in the project area range from 0 to 8 feet above the
normal water level of the Neuse River. The land within the project area is mostly undeveloped with
silviculture and agriculture being the predominant uses. A N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission
(WRC) public boat ramp is located 400' upstream from the project with the access road to the boat
ramp intersecting with SR 1470 between Bridges 138 and 139.
Approximately 4,200' of SR 1470 is an elevated fill causeway over the floodplain of the Neuse
River with Bridges 138 and 139 connecting the sections of the causeway. The sides of the causeway
are vegetated with sod grasses while the surrounding woodlands can be grouped into the riverine
swamp forest, bottomland hardwood forest, or mixed pine/hardwood forest plant communities.
There are no Coastal Wetlands present in the proj ect area. An unnamed tributary to the Neuse River
crosses under SR 1470 in two 84" diameter corrugated metal pipes at approximately 680' northeast
of Bridge 139. The closest inhabited structure to the project is a residential dwelling located
approximately 350' to the northeast of the project. There are no known historic or archaeological
resources within the project area.
Bridge 138 was constructed in 1952. It is 580.5' long with 22' of clear roadway width, including
two 9' wide travel lanes and 2' wide shoulders. The bridge consists of fourteen fixed spans, with a
maximum horizontal distance of 55' between bents. The vertical clearance underneath the bridge is
28'. The superstructure consists of a steel girder beam floor system with a reinforced concrete deck.
The bridge is supported with reinforced concrete caps on timber piles. Deck drains on each side of
the bridge convey storm water directly into the Neuse River. A USGS station has been installed on
the west side of the bridge and a N.C. Geodetic Survey benchmark resides in the southwest corner of
the bridge.
Bridge 139 is 180' long with 29' of clear roadway width, including two I I' wide travel lanes, and
was constructed in 1972. The bridge consists of four 45' spans, which allows for 43' of horizontal
clearance and 10.2' of vertical clearance. It has a steel girder beam floor system with a prestressed
concrete deck and steel piles that have been encased with concrete.
The bridges received a 7.98 and a 71.42, respectively, out of a possible 100 points during their
last sufficiency rating tests and subsequently have been deemed structurally deficient, functionally
obsolete bridges. SR 1470 has been classified as a major collector road in the project area and the
annual average daily volume of traffic over the bridge is approximately 1,800 vehicles per day.
The utilities in the project area consist of a water line that parallels the west side of SR 1470 and
overhead electric lines that parallel the east side of SR 1470 from the north end of the project area to
the south end of Bridge 139, where it crosses over the road and heads in a southwesterly direction to
the supply power to the WRC boat access area.
The Neuse River is classified C; Sw, NSW in the area of the proposed construction by the
Environmental Management Commission. The stream has been designated as Inland Waters in the
vicinity of the bridge and is classified as a Primary Nursery Area/Anadromous Fish Spawning Area.
The waters are closed to shellfish harvesting by the Division of Marine Fisheries. The river is part of
the Neuse River Basin and therefore the adjacent land is subject to the Neuse River Basin Buffer

Rules. The Neuse River is 320' wide at the project site with a maximum water depth of -10' below
the normal water level. This area of the river is heavily utilized by small powerboats (12' to 25'
range) due to its proximity to the WRC boat ramp. The overflow channel under Bridge 139 is 180'
wide at the bridge with water depths in the -1'to -3' range, however, there is little to no use by
watercraft due to the shallow water depths and it's proximity to the river. There were no SAV's
observed in the project area during the site visit.
Project Proposal
NCDOT proposes to replace Bridge 138 and Bridge 139 over the Neuse River and nearby
overflow. The project involves replacement of the existing bridges and related approaches with two
54" concrete girder bridges and new approaches on a new alignment approximately 60' west of the
existing alignment. Additionally, the project would relocate a portion of the channel that is adjacent
to the culverts north of Bridge 139. The applicant has designed the project to maintain traffic on the
existing bridges during construction of the new bridges.
To facilitate the construction of Bridge 138, a 40' wide x approximately 1,070' long temporary
work bridge would be built along the west side of the proposed bridge location, with the exception of
a 110' long gap at the main navigation channel of the Neuse River. The work bridge would include
five 30' long x 40' wide fingers platforms to provide access to the proposed bridge bents. The low
chord of the work bridge would be set at 10.5' above the normal water level of the Neuse River. The
applicant has also proposed to use barges in addition to the work bridge along the portions of the
project with water depths sufficient for their use.
The new bridge as proposed would be 600' in length, which would be 9.5' longer than the
existing bridge. The new bridge would consist of six 100'spans with five bents in the river. The new
bridge would be 30' wide with two I V wide travel lanes and a 4' wide paved shoulder on each side.
The bridge would be arched and reach its maximum height at the navigation channel, where it would
have 28.5' of vertical clearance over the channel. The navigational span of the bridge has been
designed to provide a minimum of 98' of horizontal clearance. Bridge piles would be installed by
driving with pile cushions and driving would be gradually ramped up to minimize the effects of in -
water vibration and noise.
The bases of the bridge would be stabilized with vertical retaining wall structures on the upstream
side of the bridge to reduce impacts from the project. The retaining wall on the south side of the
bridge would be 250' in length, while the retaining wall on the north side of the bridge would be
525' in length. Additionally, the bases of the bridge are to be stabilized with Class II riprap. The
riprap as proposed would be up to 200' in length and 40' in width under each end of the bridge and
would be placed entirely above the normal water level of the Neuse River.
The construction of Bridge 139 would necessitate the relocation of the gravel drive leading to the
WRC boat ramp, which is currently located approximately 100' south of the bridge. Approximately
425' of the drive would be relocated 350' further south than the current location. This would allow a
40' wide x 385' long temporary work bridge to be constructed from the gravel drive adjacent to the
proposed Bridge 139 location. The work bridge would include three 30' long x 40' wide finger
platforms.
The replacement bridge for Bridge 139 would be 400' in length and would consist of four 100'
spans, with three bents in the water. The bridge would be 31' wide with two I P wide travel lanes.
The bridge would also include a 3' wide paved shoulder on the east side of the travel lanes and a 6'
wide paved shoulder on the west side of the travel lanes. The additional width of the west side
paved shoulder is required to accommodate stormwater spread on that side of the bridge, as the

FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT:
N.C.D.O.T. - CRAVEN BRIDGES 138 AND 139
PAGE #4
bridge is sloped to the west.
The bases of Bridge 139 would be stabilized with 125 linear feet of Class II riprap on the south
end of the bridge and 105 linear feet of Class II riprap on the north end of the bridge. Additionally,
943 linear feet of rock plating would be placed along the west slope of the causeway on the north
end of the bridge from Sta. 43+57 to Sta. 53+00. Approximately 250 linear feet of rock plating
would be installed along the east slope of the causeway on the north end of the bridge from Sta.
50+50 to Sta. 53+00. The rock plating would be constructed at a 1.5:1 ratio and reduce impacts to
the adjacent wetlands.
The stormwater from the bridges would be collected in closed deck drainage systems. The
captured stormwater would initially enter drop inlets located at the ends of each bridge. The
stormwater would then be conveyed via 15" diameter reinforced concrete pipes to riprap dissipater
pads located at the toe of the fill slopes, thereby discharging into the adjacent wetlands, but outside
of the Buffer Zones. An additional stormwater collection structure would be located near the north
and south ends of the retaining walls.
To tie the new bridges to the existing roadway structure, a new roadway structure (including
causeway fills) would be constructed from Sta. 17+00 to Sta. 54+50. The typical roadway would
include two 11' wide travel lanes with 6' wide paved shoulders, although in areas where guardrail is
required the shoulders would extend out up to 11' from the travel lanes. The roadway shift would
require that the existing twin 84" corrugated metal pipes located northeast of existing Bridge 139 be
collared and extended approximately 10'. The scour hole located at the mouth of the pipes would be
backfilled with 22 tons of Class I riprap and a metal headwall would be attached to the pipes.
To redirect stormwater flow into the pipes' new entrance, approximately 170' of channel would
need to be slightly realigned. The new channel would be shifted approximately 20' to 30' west of its
current location between Sta. 48+80 and Sta. 50+50. The new channel would have a minimum
depth of 1.5' below the adjacent elevations, a basal width of 8', and 4:1 side slopes.
The relocation of SR 1470 onto the new bridges and roadway would allow the NCDOT to
abandon and demolish the existing bridges. The superstructure of the bridges would be cut and
removed one section at a time and the piles removed utilizing NCDOT's Best Management Practices
for Construction and Maintenance Activities. The fill slopes adjacent to Bridge 138 would be
graded to elevation 13' from Sta. 22+28 to Sta.22+46 and laid back at a 3:1 slope from Sta. 21+78 to
Sta. 22+78 on the south end of the bridge. On the north end of the bridge, the fill slopes would be
graded to elevation I F from Sta. 27+42 to Sta. 27+89 and laid back at a 3:1 slope from Sta. 27+89
to Sta. 28+39. The fill slopes adjacent to Bridge 139 would be graded to elevation 7' from Sta.
39+73 to Sta. 40+47 and Sta. 42+21 to Sta. 43+32. The fill slopes would also be laid back at a 3:1
slope from Sta. 39+41 to Sta. 39+73 and from Sta. 43+32 to Sta. 43+58.
The power and water lines would be relocated in conjunction with the project. The existing
overhead powerline currently located on the northeast side of Bridge 139 would be in conflict with
the construction of the new Bridge 139. To allow construction to proceed, an existing pole located at
Sta. 39+65 RT would be removed and a new pole set at approximately 25' to the southwest. A
second new pole would be located at Sta. 38+10 RT. The powerline would be relocated onto the
new poles, crossing over the roadway and out of the way of construction.
Two sections of the existing 10" water line located adjacent to the existing roadway and bridges
would be upsized and relocated. A 25' section of the 10" diameter line would be placed in ductile
iron pipe and trenched in from Sta. 17+55 to Sta. 17+80 on the west side of the roadway. The line
would then be directionally drilled from Sta. 17+80 to Sta. 32+90 a minimum of 12' under the
bottom of the Neuse River, and the section replaced with 12" diameter HDPE pipe. The line would

FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT:
N.C.D.O.T. - CRAVEN BRIDGES 138 AND 139
PAGE #5
then transition to 10" diameter line and run for another 230' under the proposed roadway and
connect to the existing line on the east side of the road.
A second section of water line would be upsized and relocated from the west side to the east side
of the roadway. The line would be directionally drilled from Sta. 38+60 to Sta. 44+15 a minimum of
6' below the stream bed of the overflow channel and replaced with 12" HDPE pipe. The line would
then transition to 10" ductile iron pipe and be trenched in for approximately 395'. The line would
then transition back to 12" HDPE pipe to allow it to be directionally drilled under the unnamed
tributary adjacent to the twin 84" pipes from Sta. 48+12 to Sta. 50+00. The remaining 515' of water
line would require trenching in the 10" ductile iron pipe along the east side of the roadway and tie
into the existing water line near SR 1450.
Anticipated Impacts
The proposed bridges would permanently shade 19,635 sq. ft. of open water, while the temporary
bridges would shade 28,320 sq. ft. of open water during the construction of the project.
The proposed bridges and associated causeway work would fill 47,550 sq. ft. of Section 404
Wetlands and require the excavation of an additional 8,712 sq. ft. of Section 404 Wetlands. The
relocation of the channel would result in 11,761 sq. ft. of temporary fill in Section 404 Wetlands.
Construction of the causeways and retaining walls would require 52,272 sq. ft. of mechanized
clearing in Section 404 Wetlands, of which 25,265 sq. ft. would be allowed to revegetate after
construction of the project.
Approximately 11,843 sq. ft. of area within the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Area adjacent
to the Neuse River would be impacted by the construction of the bridge and roadway, of which 7,479
sq. ft. would be in Zone I and 4,364 sq. ft. would be in Zone lI. The applicant investigated potential
on -site wetland mitigation opportunities, however, they were deemed not practical, therefore, the
N.C. Division of Mitigation Services has accepted responsibility for providing mitigation for the
impacts associated with the project, as indicated by their acceptance letter dated October 3, 2019.
The project would result in a total of 286,938 sq. ft. of high ground disturbance, including the
grading and paving of the new approaches to the bridge and removal of the causeway areas adjacent
to the existing bridges. The lengthening of the bridges would increase the opening under the bridges
to allow an increase in storm flows under the structures as seen in recent years. The vertical
navigable clearance under the bridges would also increase slightly by 0.5' at Bridge 138 and by 1.3'
at Bridge 139. The new bridges would allow an increase in the maximum horizontal opening under
the bridges, increasing from 55' to 98' at Bridge 138 and from 43' to 98' at Bridge 139.
The applicant has incorporated multiple avoidance and minimization measures into the project
design. These would include the use of minimum roadway design widths, steepened slopes with the
use of rock plating and vertical retaining walls, increased bridge lengths, and commitment to utilize
NCDOT's Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities during
construction of the project. The applicant has also agreed to follow the USFWS's "Guidelines for
Avoiding Impacts to the West Indian Manatee", survey the project area for Bald Eagle nests prior to
construction, consider the use of turbidity curtains in areas where practical, and to monitor turbidity
during in -water work to ensure compliance with state water quality standards.
A localized increase in turbidity can be expected during the in -water construction portion of the
permanent and temporary work bridges, however, the applicant has committed to an in -water work
moratorium from February 15 to September 30 to avoid impacts to fisheries resources. Work within
exclusion devises around individual bents or other work areas prior to the start of the moratorium
would be allowed to continue. No additional closures of shellfishing waters are expected in

association with the proposed project.
Vehicle and public access to the WRC boat ramp would not be affected as the new entrance drive
will be constructed prior to closure of the existing entrance. Watercraft transiting through the
project site during construction will not be impacted, with the exception of the unavoidable
temporary closure of the channel during placement of the bridge girders over the navigational
channel for safety reasons. The public is expected to benefit upon completion of the project by the
increase in the safety of the new structure.

River on SR 14770 (Maple Cypress Road) in Craven County, North Carolina TIP B-
4484. Debit Permit Fees from WBS No. 33723.1.2
Dear Sirs:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT') proposes to replace the existing bridges 138
and 139 over the Neuse River in Craven County with a parallel bridges to the northwest. The purpose of
this letter is to request approval under a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major Development
Permit, Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 404 Individual Permit, a CWA Section 401 Water Quality
Certification, Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) Section 10, and Neuse River Buffer Authorization. In
addition to this cover letter, ENGE Form 4345 and CAMA MP 1, 2, and 5 Forms, this application
package includes the following: adjacent landowner list, CAMA adjacent riparian landowner
notifications, stormwater management plan, permit impact drawings (including utility relocation plans),
and half size roadway plans. The US Coast Guard has issued an exemption for this project, which is
attached. In addition, a request has been submitted to the National Marine Fisheries Service for
concurrence that the project will not affect the Atlantic Sturgeon.
1.0 Purpose and Need
As identified in the October 2017 Environmental Assessment / Finding of No Significant Impact
(EA/FONSI), the need for the proposed action is to replace two structurally deficient, functionally
obsolete bridges. The purpose of the proposed action is to improve bridge structural safety and
functionality for vehicular traffic.
NCDOT Structures Management Unit records (Bridge Inspection Report, March 29, 2019; Bridge
Inspection Report, June 7, 2019) indicate Bridge No. 138 and 1.39 have sufficiency ratings of 7.98 and
71.42, respectively, out of a possible 100 for a new structure. Bridge No. 138 is considered structurally
deficient due to superstructure and substructure ratings of four or less and has two years of estimated

remaining life left. Bridge No. 139 has an estimated twelve years of estimated remaining life. NCDOT
has completed recent repairs to both structures.
2.0 Project Description
The proposed project is located in northeastern Craven County, approximately midway between Kinston
and Vanceboro. The land surrounding the bridge is predominantly rural and includes marshes, wooded
areas, large tracts of agricultural crops, and low -density single family homes.
SR 1470 (Maple Cypress Road) is a two-lane roadway with a statutory speed limit of 55 miles per hour
(mph). It is classified as a major collector road according to NCDOT Functional Classification maps. The
estimated (2012) annual average daily traffic (AADT) along SR 1470 (Maple Cypress Road) is 1,800
vehicles per day (vpd). There are no signalized intersections within the project study area. Craven County
school buses make two total trips per day across the bridges.
Known utilities in the project study area include a water line, power, and telecommunications
cable.
3.0 Summary of impacts
Construction of the project would result in 2.5 acres of permanent wetland impacts, 0.4 acre of temporary
wetland impacts, <0.01 acre of permanent surface water impacts, and 0.13 acre of temporary surface
water impacts.
See Section 7.3 for wetland and surface water impact summary tables.
4.0 Summary of Mitigation
The proposed construction of B4484 will permanently impact 2.5 acres of jurisdictional wetlands.
NCDOT has investigated potential on -site wetland mitigation opportunities, but no practical mitigation
sites were available. The existing roadway embankments that will be graded as part of the project were
evaluated for potential mitigation credit. However, due to the presence of overhead utility lines and the
relocated water line, access and clearing would be required in these areas. Therefore no mitigation credit
opportunity was practical.
Therefore, mitigation will be provided by North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality —
Division of Mitigation Services (DMS). In accordance with the "Memorandum of Agreement Among the
North Carolina Department of Transportation, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington
District' (MOA), July 22, 2003, the DMS will be requested to provide off -site mitigation to satisfy the
federal CWA compensatory mitigation requirements for this project.
5.0 Project Schedule
B-4484 is scheduled to be let in April 2020. Mobilization will begin upon let followed by upland staging
and construction, and relocation of utilities in uplands or via directional bore. In -water construction will
start in October 2020. Due to the in -water work moratorium of February 15-September 30, proposed
completion of the new bridge is 2023 and demolition of existing bridges is scheduled for 2024.

6.0 NEPA Document Status
An Environmental Assessment / Finding of No Significant Impact was signed on October 2, 2017 and is
attached.
7.0 Resource Status
The project is located in the Neuse River Basin and lies within the USGS Hydrologic Unit 03020202.
The project crosses the Neuse River (NCDEQ Index No. 27-(85) which is classified as C;Sw;NS W.
7.1 Welland Delineations
Wetland delineations were performed using the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland
Delineation Manual and the USACE 2010 Regional Supplement for the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain
Region. Results of the wetland delineation were reported in the April 2014 Natural Resources Technical
Report (NRTR). While updated delineations were performed in 2017, inundation of the Neuse River
floodplain prevented verification of this delineation, which had reduced wetland sizes in several locations.
Therefore the impacts provided in this application are based on the 2014 delineation. The 2017
delineation data was used to extend the wetland boundary parallel and adjacent to the existing boat ramp
driveway only. This line was field inspected on September 12, 2019 and deemed accurate. The final
design avoids and minimizes wetland impacts to the maximum extent practical.
7.2 Characterization of Jurisdialonal Sties
The project area bridges the Neuse River on Maple Cypress Road in Craven County. Seven wetlands
were mapped within the project footprint, including riverine swamp forest and bottomland hardwood
forest. All wetlands are subject only to Section 404 regulations. No CAMA coastal wetlands are present
on the site.
The Neuse River has not been designated an Outstanding Resource Water (ORW), High Quality Water
(HQW) or water supply watershed (WS-I or WS-II) within 1.0 mile downstream of the study area.
Per the above NSW designation, NCDOT's Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds will be
implemented for the project.

Permanent Impacts: Proposed permanent impacts include fill for roadway embanlanent in 1.09 acres of
404 jurisdictional wetlands at Sites 1 and 2. Permanent excavation impacts to 404 riparian wetlands
consist of 0.09 acre for relocation of an existing channel at impact site 2. There will be 1.2 acres of
mechanized clearing at both sites I and 2 in wetlands for construction access (0.58 ac) and maintenance
(0.62 ac). Proposed permanent impacts to surface waters are <0.01 acre (141 sq. ft), which includes the
proposed bridge piles (Sites 1 and 2).
Temporary Impacts: There will be 0.27 acre of temporary wetland impacts for dewatering and
construction access associated with the channel relocation within the Neuse River floodplain at Site 2,
which will also require 0.09 acre of excavation in wetlands to construct. A total of 0.11 acre of
excavation will also be required to allow the grading of the causeway areas downstream of the new bridge
139 to be tied into adjacent wetland elevation. There will be 0.13 we of temporary surface water
impacts to the Neuse River due to the work platforms, bridge construction, and existing bridge
demolition. Of the 1.2 acres of mechanized clearing, 0.58 acre will be allowed to revegetate after project
completion.
Utility Relocation: Overhead power lines and aerial and subsurface water lines will require relocation to
allow construction of the proposed project. The overhead power line relocation will involve one pole
moved within an upland location near bridge 139 at the Wildlife Resources Commission boat ramp access

drive. The existing water line is both aerial and subsurface throughout the project. The new line will be
installed from upland roadside bore pits using directional drill methods.
Bridge Demolition
Both bridges will be demolished using top -down methods. Temporary impacts associated with the
removal of the existing piles at each bridge total 0.07 acre of surface water for bridge 138, and 0.03 acre
of wetland for bridge 139. The superstructure of each bridge will be cut and removed with measures in
place to prevent materials from entering jurisdictional waters. Once a segment of bridge is removed, the
existing piles will be pulled. Full removal of piles will be accomplished unless they break off during
removal. In that case, the piles will be cut at or below the river bed (bridge 138) or wetland elevation
(bridge 139) to avoid increased disturbance to completely remove the piles. NCDOT's Best Management
Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities will be implemented for the bridge demolition. A
Bridge Demolition Plan will be prepared by the selected contractor, submitted to NCDOT for approval,
and shared with permitting agencies.
Individual impact site descriptions are provided below.
7 3. 1 Site 1 (Permit Drawings 4-5)
Site 1 is the replacement of bridge 138 over the Neuse River. The bridge approaches will be constructed
with retaining walls to reduce encroachment into adjacent wetlands. Fill slopes above the retaining wall
have been steepened as much as practical to 2:1 due to load limits on the retaining wall and
constructability and safety considerations adjacent to the sheet pile walls. Rock plating, while not
required, will be applied to the slopes for added protection and stability. Mechanized clearing will be
performed adjacent to the retaining walls for construction access and under the bridge for maintenance
access. A work platform will be used to construct the new bridge from both sides of the Neuse River,
with a span left open to maintain boat passage. Three minor impacts (fill and mechanized clearing) are
also proposed to allow for non -erosive discharge of stormwater from the bridge into the adjacent
wetlands, rather than direct discharge into the river.
7.3.2 Site 2 (Permit Drawings 6-9)
Site 2 is the construction of the new bridge over the Neuse River overflow and associated approaches.
The roadway fill approaching this bridge will be constructed with 1.5:1 side slopes protected with rock
plating. A retaining wall was evaluated for this area but deemed not practical due to design and
constructability considerations. Construction of the wall at this location would require tie -backs that
would result in moving the wall further out into the wetland in order to maintain traffic on the existing
road. This would have caused additional impacts to wetlands as compared to the proposed 1.5:1 slopes
without retaining walls. Mechanized clearing will be performed adjacent to the fill slope and for the
bridge and work platform to allow for construction access and pile installation. The existing road
embankment will be abandoned upon completion of the construction and graded down to drain via sheet
flow into the adjacent wetlands. A temporary construction area has been established around the channel
relocation to allow for sheet piling or other dewatering method to be implemented so the culvert extension
can be constructed in the dry.

NCDOT has determined that the project will not affect listed species, with the exception of Northern
long-eared bat, Atlantic sturgeon, and West Indian manatee. Biological conclusions from the 2014 NRTR
are provided in Table 3. A request has been submitted to the NMFS for concurrence that the project is
not likely to adversely affect the Atlantic sturgeon.
American alligator
Biological Conclusion: Not Applicable
The American alligator remains on the protected species list due to its similarity in appearance to
the Endangered American crocodile and no biological conclusion is required.
Green sea turtle
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
This project will not affect the beaches or coastal waters of North Carolina, therefore no habitat
for green sea turtles exists within the study area. A review of NCNHP records, accessed
September 24, 2019, indicates no known green sea turtle occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study
area.
Leatherback sea turtle
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
This project will not affect the beaches or coastal waters of North Carolina, therefore no habitat
for leatherback sea turtles exists within the study area A review of NCNHP records, updated

Northern long-eared bat
Biological Conclusion: May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect
The USFWS has developed a programmatic biological opinion (PBO) in conjunction with the
Federal Highway Administration, the US Army Corps of Engineers and NCDOT for the northern
long-eared bat (NLEB) (Wds septatWonalis) in eastern North Carolina. The PBO covers the
entire NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT projects and activities. The
programmatic determination for NLEB for the NCDOT program is "May Affect, Likely to
Adversely Affect." The PBO provides incidental take coverage for NLEB and will ensure
compliance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for five years for all NCDOT projects
with a federal nexus in Divisions 1-8, which includes Craven County.
Red -cockaded woodpecker
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for the red cockaded woodpecker does not exist in the study area Forests in the
study area are comprised of a closed hardwood canopy and subcanopy. Where pine trees occur in
maintained or disturbed areas, they are not of sufficient age or density to provide suitable nesting
or foraging habitat. A review of NCNHP records, accessed September 25, 2019, indicates no
known RCW occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area.
Red knot
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for the red knot does not exist in the study area. The study area consists of
forested, riparian areas in a freshwater system. It lacks coastal foraging and roosting areas
preferred by the red knot. A review of NCNHP records, accessed September 25, 2019, indicates
no known red knot occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area
Atlantic Sturgeon
Biological Conclusion: May Affect, Not Likely to Adversely Affect
The Neuse River at this location is designated as critical habitat for the Atlantic sturgeon. A
review of NCNHP records, access September 25, 2019, indicates there are no known Atlantic
sturgeon occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area.
West Indian manatee
Biological Conclusion: May Affect, Not Likely to Adversely Affect
Suitable habitat for the West Indian manatee does exist in the study area A review of NCNHP
records, accessed September 25, 2019, revealed a 1994 manatee occurrence within the study area
(EO ID: 5451). NCDOT will utilize the "Guidelines for Avoiding Impacts to the West Indian
Manatee: precautionary Measures for Construction Activities in North Carolina's Waters" during
construction of the bridge.
Rough -leaved loosestrife
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for rough -leaved loosestrife does not exist in the study area. The canopy in the
wetland areas that are not regularly flooded is too dense to allow rough -leaved loosestrife to
grow. A review of NCNHP records, accessed September 25, 2019, indicates no known rough -
leaved loosestrife occurrence within 1.0 mile of the study area.

Sensitive Joint -vetch
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for sensitive joint -vetch does not exist in the study area. The wetland areas and
roadside ditches are not brackish or tidally influenced and therefore do not provide the necessary
conditions for this vetch. A review of NCNHP records, accessed September 25, 2019, indicates
no known sensitive joint -vetch occurrence within 1.0 mile of the study area.
Two other species, the Neuse River waterdog and the Carolina madtom are proposed for listing under the
Endangered Species Act. Surveys were performed at the site in Spring 2019 and none were found.
8.1 Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA)
In the July 9, 2007 Federal Register (72:37346-37372), the bald eagle was declared recovered, and
removed (de -listed) from the Federal List of Threatened and Endangered wildlife. This delisting took
effect August 8, 2007. After delisting, the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (Eagle Act) (16 U.S.C.
668-668d) became the primary law protecting bald eagles.
The Neuse River is a water body of sufficient size to be considered potential feeding habitat. Also, there
are trees near the project large enough to support the nesting of bald eagles. While a bald eagle was seen
on the July 6, 2009 site visit, no nest trees were visible within 660 feet of the study area. A review of
NCNHP records, accessed September 26, 2019, indicates no known bald eagle occurrence within 1.0 mile
of the study area. The NCDOT will survey the project area again for bald eagle nests prior to
construction.
8.2 Protection Measures
Protection measures for several species have been recommended for B-4484. The Neuse River within the
project area is designated as critical habitat for the Atlantic sturgeon. In order to minimize potential
effects to these resources, NCDOT has committed to the following nondiscretionary measures for the
construction of this project:
An in -water work moratorium will be implemented during the construction of B-4484. Construction
activity at or below the mean high water elevation within the News River, including its floodplain when
inundated, will not be allowed from February 15 to September 30. Work in upland areas, on the bridge
superstructure, and within exclusion devices around individual bents or other work areas (installed prior
to the start of the moratorium) will be allowed to continue.
West Indian Manatee:
All conditions outlined in Guidelines for Avoiding Impacts to the West Indian Manatee: Precautionary
Measures for Construction Activities in North Carolina Waters (USFW S, 2003) will be adhered to.
9.0 Cultural Resources
No sites eligible for the National Register of Historic Places are within the project area. NC State
Historic Preservation Office concurrence is included in the attached EA.

10.0 FEMA Compliance
The project has been coordinated with appropriate state and local officials and the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) to assure compliance with FEMA, state, and local floodway regulations.
11.0 Mitigation Options
The NCDOT is committed to incorporating all reasonable and practicable design features to avoid and
minimize jurisdictional impacts, and to provide full compensatory mitigation of all remaining,
unavoidable jurisdictional impacts.
11.1 Avoidance & Minimization
All jurisdictional features were delineated, field verified and surveyed within the corridor for B-4484 as
described above. Using these surveyed features, preliminary designs were adjusted to avoid and/or
minimize impacts to jurisdictional areas. NCDOT employs many strategies to avoid and minimize
impacts to jurisdictional areas in all of its designs. Many of these strategies have been incorporated into
BMP documents that have been reviewed and approved by the resource agencies and which will be
followed throughout construction. All wetland areas and environmental sensitive areas (ESA) not
affected by the project will be protected from unnecessary encroachment. Individual avoidance and
minimization measures include the following:
11.1.1 Design Measures
• Bridge 138 over the Neuse River has been lengthened to span riparian buffers and the river banks.
• Retaining walls have been utilized to reduce wetland impacts on the approaches to bridge 138.
• There will be no deck drains or direct discharge of stormwater off the bridges. All stormwater will be
discharged at the ends of the bridges at non -erosive velocity.
• Riprap has been eliminated along the base of sheet pile walls.
• Granite, not marl, will be specified for riprap protection areas.
• Fill slopes have been steepened to the maximum extent practical considering erosive velocities and
geotechnical considerations.
• 2:1 slopes are used above retaining walls for load, constructability, and safety considerations
• 1.5:1 slopes are used where retaining walls were not practical (see Impact Site 2 discussion)
11.1.2 General Construcdon Measures
• Refer to Section 8.2 for protected species measures
• No staging of construction equipment or storage of construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands.
• Temporary work platforms are proposed to access the new bridge alignments except one span to
allow boat passage along the river where a barge may be used.
• Sediment and erosion control measures shall adhere to the Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds
during construction of the project.
• Special Sediment Control Fence and Environmentally -Sensitive Area fencing will be used where
applicable.
• Bridge piles will be driven, and no jetting will be used.
• Pile driving will be accomplished using pile cushions and will be ramped up to minimize the effects
of in -water noise.
• No dredging is proposed.
• Turbidity curtains will be considered in areas of adequate shallow depth and lower velocity.
Turbidity will be monitored during in -water work to ensure compliance with state water quality
standards.

TIP B-4494 CAMA Major and Individual Permit Application
September 30, 2019
Water line relocation will be accomplished using directional subsurface methods to avoid wetland and
surface water impacts.
To ensure that all borrow and waste activities occur on high ground, except as authorized by permit,
the NCDOT shall require its contractors to identify all areas to be used to borrow material, or to
dispose of dredged, fill or waste material. Documentation of the location and characteristics of all
borrow and disposal sites associated with the project will be available on request.
11.1.3 Demolition Measures
• NCDOT will adhere to Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities.
• Demolition will be accomplished through top -down and/or barge access.
• Non -shattering methods will be implemented (no explosives) for bridge removal.
• No bridge deck or substructure components will be dropped in the water.
• Existing bridge piles will be removed completely, unless not practicable.
• If a pile snaps off at a depth below the stream bed or wetland elevation it will be left in place rather
than disturb additional area to remove.
• A demolition plan will be finalized by the selected contractor. The final demolition plan will also be
approved by NCDOT and provided to permitting agencies for review prior to implementation.
11.2 Compensation
The NCDOT has avoided and minimized impacts to jurisdictional resources to the greatest extent possible
as described above. Unavoidable jurisdictional wetland impacts will be offset by in -lieu fee payment to
the NCDMS.
12.0 Indirect and Cumulative Effects
The project is a replacement of existing infrastructure; therefore, additional development is not likely to
occur as a result of the project. The replacement will neither influence nearby land use or stimulate
growth as no new travel lanes are proposed.
13.0 Regulatory Approvals
NCDOT requests that the proposed work be authorized under:
- A Coastal Area Management Act Major Development Permit. The Certified Mail records for
each adjacent riparian landowner are provided with this permit application. The return receipts
will be forwarded once they have been received Authorization to debit the $475 Permit
Application Fee from WBS 33723.1.2 is hereby given.
- A Clean Water Act Section 404 Individual Permit and Rivers and Harbors Act Section 10 Permit
. A Clean Water Act Section 401 Certification and Neuse Buffer Authorization. Authorization to

Dear Landowner:
JAMES H. TROGDON, III
SECRETARY
The North Carolina Department of Transportation is planning to replace bridges 138 and 139 on SR 1470
(Maple Cypress Road) over the Neuse River. The proposed project will replace the aging existing
structures over the Neuse River and its overflow channel. A full permit application detailing the bridge
replacement will be provided to you in the Fall of 2019. NCDOT is currently proposing to relocate
utilities (overhead power lines and underground water) out of the future construction area.
This bridge relocation crosses an Area of Environmental Concern, as defined by the North Carolina
Division of Coastal Management (DCM), and must be approved by the DCM under provisions of the
Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA). One of the prerequisites to this approval is that adjacent riparian
landowners be given an opportunity to comment on the proposal.
The attached form is submitted to ensure that you have an opportunity to comment on the proposal. If you
have no objections to the proposal, please return the form with your response within 30 days to this
office. If you do have objections to the project, please forward your comments to:
Mr. Stephen Lane
N.C. Division of Coastal Management
400 Commerce Ave.
Morehead City, NC 28557
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,

ADJACENT RIPARIAN LANDOWNER STATEMENT
(Craven County: Replace Bridge Nos. 138 and 139 over the Neuse River)
NCDOT TIP B-4484
General Statutes and Division of Coastal Management Major Permit approval procedures require
that riparian landowners with property adjoining a proposed development in an Area of
Environmental Concern (AEC) be given thirty (30) days in which to comment on the proposed
development. This form allows the adjacent riparian landowner to express either: (1) that he/she
objects to the project; or, (2) that he/she does not object and desires to waive his/her right to the 30-
day period so that the processing of the application can progress more rapidly. Of course, the
adjacent riparian landowner need not sign this form at all if he/she so chooses.
►, , am an adjacent riparian property owner and am aware of the
North Carolina Department of Transportation's plans for relocating utilities associated with the
future replacement of bridges 138 and 139 over the Neuse River in Craven County, North Carolina.
I am further aware that this work will occur in one or more Areas of Environmental Concern and
therefore will require authorization from the Division of Coastal Management in accordance with the
Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
1 have no objection to the project as presently proposed and hereby waive that right of
objection as provided in General Statute 113-229.
I have objections to the project as presently proposed and my comments are attached.

The impacts and associated mitigation needs were under projected by the NCDOT in the 2019 impact data. DMS will
commit to implement sufficient compensatory wetland mitigation credits to offset the impacts associated with this project as
determined by the regulatory agencies using the delivery timeline listed in Section F.3.c.iii of the In -Lieu Fee Instrument dated
July 28, 2010. If the above referenced impact amounts are revised, then this mitigation acceptance letter will no longer be valid
and a new mitigation acceptance letter will be required from DMS.

Dear Mr. Whitley:
POY COOPS,
Governor
MICHAEL S. PEGAN
Ser, .far,
BRAXTON C. DAVIS
Director
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of the
application submitted to this office by you for State approval for the replacement of Bridge No.
138 and Bridge No. 139 on SR 1470 within the Public Trust Waters and Coastal Shoreline
adjacent to the Neuse River and adjacent overflow, Craven County. It was received completed
on December 4, 2019 and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected
deadline for making a decision is February 17, 2020. An additional 75-day review period is
provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been
notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review
period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended
review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from December 4, 2019, you may
request a meeting with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to
discuss the status of your project. Such a meeting will be held within five working days from the
receipt of your written request and shall include the property owner, developer, and project
designer/consultant.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the
proposed development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must
be posted at the property of your proposed development. You should post this notice at a
conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from a public road. Some
examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-
way adjacent to the project, or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would
lead one to your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
