Subject: Nationwide Permit #13
Replace Bridge #25 on SR 1225
Watauga County, North Carolina
Project Number: 42570.1.1 (No DWQ Permit Fee Required)
Dear Mr. Matthews:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation is scheduled to replace Bridge #25 with a new
bridge at the same location. The existing bridge is structurally deficient. The new single span
bridge will be built using an off-site detour. There is a nice floodplain on the western side of the
bridge. We are proposing to minimize the amount of fill on the floodplain by armor plating the fill
on a 1.5:1 instead of using just soil on a 2:1. Most of this roadway fill armoring will be well away
from the stream but the very bottom portion is probably within the 2-year high water mark at the
outer edge of the floodplain so we are permitting it as an impact. All impacts associated with this
bridge replacement are due to bank armoring. This project is almost identical to the recently
permitted Bridge #37 in Watauga County. Stream impacts are tabulated below.

Construction of this project will require impacts to waters of the United States in the Watauga
River Basin. The existing bridge crosses Little Beaverdam Creek (Class: C, Trout). This project
was reviewed for the presence of threatened and endangered species in April of 2011. The

subject project will have no effect on any federally listed endangered plant or animal species.
Historic compliance work will be scheduled and concurrence with the State Historic Preservation
Office will be obtained if required.
The project impacts are not significant in nature and should not alter the best usage for this
stream. All appropriate BMPs will be used during construction. Attached is a Preconstruction
Notification Form, plan sheets, photographs, a marked county map and a marked topography
map.
By copy of this letter, it is requested that Mr. Ron Linville, Mountain Region Coordinator, with
the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission comment directly to you concerning the 404
Nationwide Permit application with a copy sent to me. We will be requesting a trout buffer
variance from stations 14+15 - 19+00.
We would like to begin construction as soon as possible. If further information is required, please
let me know. Your early review and consideration will be appreciated.

® North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Gordon Myers, Executive Director
MEMORANDUM
TO: Monte Matthews, USACOE
Raleigh Regulatory Field Office
FROM: Ron Linville, Regional Coordinator ZPVW
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: April 14, 2011
SUBJECT: SR1225, BDG 25, Little Beaverdam Creek, Watauga County
North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace an existing bridge with a
larger spanning structure. Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission are
familiar with habitat values in the area. These comments are provided in accordance with the provisions
of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25).
The NCDOT project will span the creek without major fill in waters; however, riprap impacts to
streambanks will constitute 180 linear feet. Rainbow trout are present throughout this stream basin.
Based on our review of the submittal and our knowledge of area habitats, we will not object to the project
as proposed providing stringent erosion control measures for sensitive watersheds are used. We will
waive the trout moratorium for land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone during the rainbow
trout spawning season of January 1 through April 15 if NCDOT implements stringent erosion control
measures and avoids doing the work outside the growing season so that vegetation can be established. To
the extent practicable, work done in the water should be avoided from January I through April 15.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project during the early planning stages. If
you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336-769-9453.
