Travis and Gary,
I met with Kyle and Garcy onsite yesterday morning to evaluate the site. It was decided the JD shouldn't be revised, but
the past jurisdictional determination may not have been accurate. Just upstream of the existing culvert is a remnant
storm water structure and pond that no longer functions, as shown in the attached photos. After looking at the site, I
don't expect any aquatic life passage is possible through this site. NCDOT requests comments on removing the burial
requirement for this culvert.
Let me know if you need any additional information or have any concerns.
Thanks,
Paul Williams

Subject: R-2582A - Culvert at Site 12
Kyle and Garcy,
I have another culvert issue on the R-2582A project. The 48" RCP at site 12 was supposed to be buried 0.8', but the
contractor used the elevation on the construction plans and didn't measure off the existing stream bed. The inlet of the
culvert is buried, but the outlet is perched. Please see photos.
After looking at the site yesterday, I question the need of burial at this site. The delineated jurisdictional stream above
the site doesn't appear functional, and I don't think there is much aquatic life movement in this area. I would like to
evaluate this culvert onsite with you to determine if the burial is needed. What would be your availability next week to
look at this?
Travis,

Please let me know your comments on this situation.
Thanks,
