SUBJECT: Mecklenburg County - Charlotte Outer Loop from.
Interchange with NC 51 to Interchange with Rea
Road T.I.P. Nos. R-0211DA, DD and DB; State
Project No. 8.1670102; DOA Action ID. 199200013
Reference the Department of the Army permit modification
issued to NCDOT on April 12, 1994 for the construction of 780
linear feet of elevated boardwalks and 180 linear feet of
concrete trail at the McMullen and McAlpine Creek greenway
crossings of the o thern Charlotte-Outer Loop. During the
permit review meeting on November 17, 1994, you informed us
that your agency is reconsidering a request from Mecklenburg
County to allow construction of paved walkways throughout
both corridors, rather than boardwalks. Since NCDOT is
required to construct this greenway trail as part of our
right-of-way agreement with Mecklenburg county, we will need
to know of the final approved version so that we can prepare
our construction contract.
Attached are revised plan drawings of the walkways at
McMullen and McAlpine Creeks. A typical cross section
drawing of the 14-foot-wide concrete trail is also included.
The two walkways will require a total of 960 linear feet of
paving. Please note that a 180-foot section directly beneath
the highway at McMullen Creek was approved under the previous
modification, and the associated 0.06 acre wetland impact is
to be mitigated at NCDOT's Long Creek mitigation site. The
remaining 780 linear feet proposed herein would require an
PHONE [phone] FAX [phone]

"*` L
additional 0.25 acre of wetland fill. NCDOT does not propose
mitigation for this impact, as we consider our commitments at
this site to have been fulfilled under the previous
agreements with Mecklenburg County. We hereby request
modification of the 404 Permit issued on May 28, 1992, to
allow construction of paved walkways within the NCDOT right-
of-way boundaries at the McMullen and McAlpine Creek
crossings.
Thank you for your continued assistance with this
project. If you have any questions, please contact Cyndi
Bell at [phone].
