MEMORANDUM
TO: Mr. Robert Johnson, Office Manager
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Asheville
FROM: Mark S. Davis,
Assistant Fisheries Biologist
DATE: November 9, 1992
SUBJECT: A review of an application by Mr. Larry J. Cordell of
the NCDOT to replace twin pipes in an unnamed tributary
to Reems Creek (below trout water designation) on SR
1720 near Asheville, Buncombe County.
Mr. Larry J. Cordell of the North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) is requesting a letter of concurrence from
the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) in order
to obtain a 404 permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Staff field biologists of the NCWRC have reviewed the information
provided by the applicant, and an onsite investigation was
conducted on November 6, 1992, for the purpose of assessing
potential construction impacts on wildlife and fisheries
resources. These comments are provided in accordance with
provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C. 466 et.
seq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401,
as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d).
Based on the information provided by the applicant and our
information on the range of trout in the project area, we do not
believe this project will cause significant effects to waters
supporting trout. However, construction must be accomplished so
that wet concrete does not contact stream water. This will
lessen the chance of altering the stream's water chemistry and
causing a fish kill.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this
project. If there are any questions regarding these comments,
please contact Mr. Mark S. Davis at [phone].
