Permits and Mitigation Unit, 5/26/98
General Specifications for the "Grading Contract"
of a Wetland Mitigation Site
(for NCDOT Roadway Design Unit, Design Services Unit, and Division Engineers)
Following is a comprehensive list of specifications that should be consulted when preparing the "Special
Provisions" section for contracts, purchase orders, or supplemental contract agreements. This list
consolidates in one place those specifications that relate to construction operations of a mitigation site.
(Note: Specifications for a forestry/planting contract are not included.) As this list is all-inclusive,
every specification is NOT required for each mitigation site. This document's purpose is to serve as a
"shopping list" of specifications that design engineers can choose from, depending on specific site
conditions.
Prior to final issuance, all plans and contract provisions must be reviewed by the NCDOT Mitigation
Coordinator. It is his responsibility to:
1. Review for compliance with permit conditions.
2. Review for consistency with any commitments made in the Mitigation Plan.
3. Consider the environmental consequences of plan sheet proposals or contract
provisions.
Field Inspection
Field Inspections are a normal occurrence of the design phase. The Roadway Design Unit is
responsible for scheduling field inspections, and for sending preliminary construction plan sheets to all
participants prior to the meeting. Prior to sending plan sheets out, however, the sheets must be reviewed
by the Wetlands Mitigation Coordinator. Given the high level of interest that resource agencies show
toward mitigation sites, agency participation in field inspections is a normal occurrence. The Roadway
Design Engineer should consult the Mitigation Coordinator for a list of agency personnel to invite.
Permits and Mitigation Unit, 5/26/98
General Comments:
Planting Activities
All planting activities will be coordinated through NCDOT Roadside Environmental Unit.
Reforestation areas will include areas cleared due to installation of the chain link fence.
Pre-Bid Conference
The unfamiliarity of contractors with wetland construction often causes a lack of interest in
bidding this type of project; therefore Division Engineers are highly encouraged to hold a pre-bid
conference with interested contractors. Only contractors present at the pre-bid conference shall be
allowed to "bid" on the project.
Preconstruction Conference
Due to the intense interest of resource agencies in the success of NCDOT wetland mitigation
sites, NCDOT should schedule preconstruction conferences well in advance so that the date of the
conference can be provided to agency personnel. The Resident Engineer is responsible for informing the
Wetland Mitigation Coordinator of the date of preconstruction conference, which should be held
approximately one week prior to the availability date.

Permits and Mitigation Unit. 5/26/98
A General Specifications
1. Contractor shall not utilize a borrow pit that is located within 1 /2 mile of any boundary of a NCDOT
wetland mitigation site, if excavation in the borrow pit will fall below the highest elevation of the nearby
mitigation site.
2. No borrow material shall be taken from the mitigation site unless directed by the Engineer.
3. There is no subsurface information available for this project. The contractor shall make his own
investigation of subsurface conditions.
B Site Preparation prior to Grading Operations
1 Clearing and Grubbing
a. Clearing and grubbing operations shall be performed, according to Section 200 of the
Standard Specifications, and as directed by the Engineer. The extent of clearing and grubbing includes
the necessary amount to install the chain link fence as depicted on the detail sheet.
b. Burning restrictions:
1. On-site burning of clearing and grubbing material is allowed: the contractor is
responsible for obtaining all necessary permits.
c. Disposition of debris and waste material
1. Debris and waste material shall be disposed of off site at a location to be determined
by the contractor.
2. Hand Clearing,
a. Hand clearing operations shall be performed as identified by flagging in the field. or as
directed by the Engineer. The extent of hand clearing includes the necessary area to install the chain link
fence and the adjacent banks of the ephemeral pool.
b. Trees present along the bank of the ephemeral pool will be hand cut and laid down along the
bank slope to provide slope stabilization.
3. Temporary Seeding
a. Temporary seeding will be required following all land disturbing activities as directed by the
Engineer.
b. Fertilizer shall be 10-20-20 analysis applied at the rate of 400 pounds per acre. Upon written
approval of the Engineer, a different analysis fertilizer may be used provided the 1-2-2 ratio is
maintained and the rate of application is adjusted to provide the same amount of plant food as a 10-20-
20 analysis.
c. Rye grain at the rate of 50 pounds per acre shall be used for seeding.
C. Access Roads and Haul Roads
1. Access to the project site shall be limited to the designated routes and locations, as directed by the
Engineer.
Permits and Mitigation Unit, 5/26/98
2. Damage to any existing access road shall be repaired to a condition which is at least as good as the
road condition before start of construction, as directed by the Engineer.
D. Erosion Control
The contractor will utilize an erosion control plan as directed by the Engineer. Erosion control
techniques such as silt fence will be utilized in the minimization of sediment runoff into the pond.
E. Traffic Control
To limit disturbance of established bank slopes and exotic animal species on site, the Contractor shall
restrict the movement of all construction equipment to the allowable areas, as directed by the Engineer.
Prior to construction activities, all non-disturbance areas shall be identified by using a highly visible
tape, silt fencing, or orange boundary fencing, and limits of where construction equipment is permitted
to travel, shall be staked.
F. Fences and Access Gates
1. Chain Link Fencc
a. The Contractors attention is directed to the attached sheet for the location of chain link
fence. The chain link fence shall be six (6) feet high and constructed as detailed.
b. The chain link fence shall conform to specifications as detailed in Section 866(c) of
the Standard Specifications.
c. Materials shall meet the requirements of Division 10, Article 1050-5 of the Standard
Specifications.
G Areas of Special Environmental Concern
1. Other areas of environmental concern
The Ephemeral Pool area shall not be disturbed. There shall be no work or any disturbance in
this area. Erosion control techniques shall be utilized to insure that sediment runoff is directed away
from this area. To ensure that no construction equipment enters this area, prior to commencement of
work, the contractor shall identify the boundaries of this area using a highly visible tape, silt fence, or
orange boundary fencing, as directed by the Engineer.
H Cooperation Between Contractors
In accordance with Section 105-7 of the Standard Specifications, the Department reserves the
right at any time to contract for and perform other or additional work on or near the work covered by the
contract.
When separate or additional contracts are let within the limits of any one project, each Contractor
shall conduct his work so as not to interfere with or hinder the progress or completion of the work being
performed by other Contractors. Contractors working within the limits of the same project shall
cooperate with each other.
Each Contractor shall conduct his operations in such a manner as to avoid damaging any work
being performed by others or which has been completed by others.
4
Permits and Mitigation Unit. 5/26/98
When a project is let under more than one contract and the plans and/or special provisions
include a construction schedule, it shall be the responsibility of the Contractors to complete the various
phases of the project in accordance with the time limits specified such that the total contracts will be
completed by the completion date. This construction schedule will remain in effect until such time as
the Contractors at their option submit to the engineer a joint construction schedule meeting the approval
of the Engineer. This joint construction schedule shall be signed by authorized representatives of each
firm and upon the approval of the Engineer shall be binding on each Contractor and made a part of the
contract documents. Subsequent modifications to the joint construction schedule maybe made during
the course of the work in the same manner.
Failure of the Contractor(s) to complete the various phases of work within the time limits set
forth in the construction schedule or latest approved joint construction schedule shall be just cause for
removing the Contractor(s) from the Department's list of qualified bidders. A Contractor disqualified
from bidding by reason of this provision will not be reinstated until such time as his progress is in
accordance with the latest approved construction schedule or until the project is completed and accepted,
whichever occurs first.
The Department will under no circumstances be liable for any claim for additional compensation
due to acts of one Contractor holding up the work of another.
The Department will under no circumstances be liable for any damages experienced by one
Contractor as a result of the presence and operations of other Contractors working within the limits of
the same project.

SUBJECT: State Environmental Assessment/Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) for US 401/15/501, Laurinburg Bypass, State Project No.
6.591005 (R-613), Scotland County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Ward:
This responds to your June 13, 1990 letter soliciting comments on the
subject document. This is the report of the Department of the Interior and
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) and is submitted in accordance with
provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended (16 U.S.C.
661-667e), and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended
..(16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). This supplements our report dated February 8, 1990.
The Service has reviewed the subject document and offers the following
comments. The proposed project will result in the direct loss of 2.90 acres
of wetlan s, as described in the subject document. In our previous report,
we requested:
"...any-future document-:for this project should include a specific
wetland mitigation plan sufficient to fully mitigate for fish and
wildlife .habitat values lost to project construction, and a
commitment to implement the plan.".
..
f The final State Environmental Assessment (SEA) was not amended-as requested
JOE = by the Service, and on Page 4 of the FONSI, the North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) indicates that mitigation for the w-etlarxLs lost due
13 rJ to project activities will not be considered if the project activities are
_
= covered under Bridge General or Nationwide Permits.
Although the 1990; Memorandum of Agreement between the U.S. Army Corps of "
T Engineers and-the Environmental Protection Agency specifically focuses:.on
standard ?Permits ' the _. guidelines for Section 404(b) (1) of . the `Clean` Water
-Act remain `applicable _t6_-al -1 discharges of dredge or fill material. thin
.wetlands. As such, mitigation_considerations are required-as pert of ;:the .
:Section 404(b)(1).guidelines analysis.
f
The 1985 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by the Service, NCDOT,
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, and North Carolina Nature
Conservancy clearly outlines mitigation procedures for NCDOT highway`
projects that will unavoidably impact palustrine forested wetlands.
According to General Provision 6 of the MOU, the mitigation bank (as
described in the MOU) will be used for mitigating unavoidable impacts,
associated with NCDOT projects, regardless of the type of 404 permit that
the project. is covered under. The MOU also states that mitigation from the
bank will be used only to offset unavoidable impacts when NCDOT can
demonstrate to the satisfaction of all parties to the MOU that there are no
available or practical onsite mitigation alternatives.
Therefore, the Service requests that NCDOT develop and provide to the
Service a specific wetland mitigation plan sufficient to fully mitigate for
fish and wildlife habitat values lost to project construction, and a
commitment to implement the plan. Based on information on Page 82 of the
SEA, it appears that onsite mitigation may be feasible. If the N,= can
document that onsite mitigation is not available or practical, then debiting
from the appropriate mitigation bank, on an acre-for-acre basis should be
proposed.
The Service is also concerned about the impacts that this project may have
on the Federally-listed endangered red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides
borealis). The draft SEA did not adequately address project-related impacts
to the red-cockaded woodpecker for the Service to concur with a finding of
"no effect". Consequently, we requested in our report dated February 8,
1990, that the final SEA include the results of an evaluation of project-
related impacts, on the red-cockaded woodpecker in accordance with the
Service's "Guidelines for Preparation of Biological Assessments and
Evaluations for the Red-Cockaded Woodpecker" dated September, 1989. 'T'hese
guidelines state that if the proposed project will be removing pine trees
greater than or equal to 30 years of age in pine or pine/hardwood habitat,
surveys should be conducted for active red-cockaded woodpecker cavity trees
within a 0.5 mile radius of project boundaries. If red-cockaded woodpeckers
are observed within the project area or active cavity trees found, the
project has the potential to adversely affect the red-cockaded woodpecker,
and our office should be contacted for additional information. As the final
SEA provides no more information regarding project-related impacts on the
red-cockaded woodpecker than the draft SEA, it appears that NCDOT has not
cc?conducted an adequate survey for red-cockaded woodpeckers, as requested by
the Service. Therefore, the Service cannot concur with a finding of "no
-,
I. effect" with respect to project-related impacts on red-cockaded woodpeckers.
We will reconsider our position when NCDOT provides the Service with results
of the requested evaluation.

Sincerely yours,

Debbie C. Scruggs
