Dear Sir:
SUBJECT: Rowan County - Bridge No. 89 over High Rock Lake Backwater
and Approaches on SR 2168; T.I.P. No. B-2611; State Project
No. 8.2632201; DOA Action ID. 199302545
Reference Nationwide Permit No. 23 (Categorical Exclusion) issued June 16, 1993
by the Corps of Engineers for this bridge replacement. The project is ready for
construction, and involves placement of a new structure on existing location. No wetland
fill or channel change is required. Traffic will be maintained on local secondary roads
throughout construction.
The contractor hired to construct this project has requested permission to use
temporary work platforms to construct each end of the new bridge, but not the middle
span. Attached herein is a drawing submitted by the contractor, showing the proposed
work platform design, construction materials, and schedule. A single platform would be
placed on each end of the new bridge during construction, and will be removed as soon as
possible after construction is completed.
NCDOT does not anticipate any permanent impacts to High Rock Lake as a result
of the proposed work. Please review this material and inform us of any concerns you may
have regarding the proposed work platform.

A
Application is hereby made for Nationwide Permit No. 33 for Temporary
Construction, Access and Dewatering. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting
issuance of 401 Water Quality Certification by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management.
Thank you for your assistance. If you have any questions, please contact Cyndi
Bell in Raleigh at (919) 733- 7844, Ext. 306.
