Subject: Proposed maintenance improvements to a structure conveying an unnamed
tributary to Basal Creek on SR 1101 Piney Grove-Wilson Road in Wake
County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace a pipe
conveying an unnamed tributary to Basal Creek on SR 1101 Piney Grove-Wilson Road in
Wake County (Figure 1 - 3). Information concerning this activity is provided below:
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Site 1 - Waters of the U.S.
Maintenance activities at this site will impact an unnamed intermittent tributary to
Basal Creek [NCDENR-DWQ Index No. 27-43-15.3, Best Usage Classification B NSW,
HUC 03020201] (Figure 3) in the Neuse River Basin. The existing structure conveying the
creek is an 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe that is 42 feet long (Photographs 1 and 2). The
NCDOT proposes to replace the existing structure with a 30-inch corrugated aluminum pipe
that is 45 feet long. The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the work zone during the
construction of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of either sheet piling
or sandbags in the creek 10 ft upstream and 10 ft downstream of construction. Once the
stream has been dewatered, the pipe will be replaced. Permanent impacts at the site
associated with the replacement of the structure and minimal amounts of rip rap to protect the
structure involve a total of 23 linear feet (3 ft of surface water fill and 20 ft of rip rap). The
work zone will be dewatered for approximately 5 days. Temporary concurrent impacts to the
stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of 23 linear feet of stream. The
materials used for dewatering will be removed after construction. Fill in wetlands is also
anticipated at this site. The placement of rip rap along the inlet of the new structure will result
in 36 ft- (0.001 ac) of fill in a fringe wetland along this unnamed tributary. (See Appendix
One for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets).

Riparian Buffer
Site 1 - Buffers
The maintenance at this site involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject to the
Neuse River Buffer Rules. The intermittent tributary to Basal Creek, at Site 1 is depicted
on the most recent version of the Apex (USGS 1974/1988) topographic quadrangle
(Figure 1) and the Soil Survey of Wake County (USDA-SCS, 1970) (Figure 2).
Construction impacts at this site total 169 ft2 in Zone 1 and 0 ft2 in Zone 2 (totaling 23
linear feet of riparian buffer impacts). Based on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this
site, this crossing is EXEMPT.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands and surface waters not affected by the project will be protected
from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of
construction supplies will?be'allowed in wetlands or near surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at jurisdictional
sites. Strict enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices
for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during project
construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces and the
Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to these sites.
Compensatory Miti ag tion: Unavoidable impacts to 3 linear feet of stream associated with
this project will be mitigated (at a 2:1 ratio) by providing 6 linear feet of stream
restoration equivalent in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03020201).
Additionally, unavoidable impacts to 0.001 acre of non-riverine wetlands will be
mitigated (at a 1:1 ratio) by providing 0.001 acre of restoration equivalent non-riverine
wetlands within the same river basin and cataloging unit. All compensatory mitigation
requirements will be assimilated on a quarterly basis and provided to the Ecosystem
Enhancement Program (EEP) for their acceptance with a copy provided to the USACE
for verification and accounting purposes.
Protected Species
Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed
Endangered, and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and
Section 9 of the ESA. As of January 29, 2003, there are four federally protected species
listed for Wake County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus),
red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta
heterdon), and Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii). SR 1101 is not adjacent to nor is it
surrounded by open water suitable of supporting foraging habitat for the bald eagle. The
dense stands of mixed hardwood surrounding this roadway do not offer suitable forging
or nesting habitat for red-cockaded woodpecker. The UT to Basal Creek does not provide
suitable habitat for mussel fauna. Additionally, the roadway shoulders along SR 1101 are
heavily maintained from the pavement to the woods line, eliminating the possibility for
Michaux's sumac to exist in this area. Therefore, based on lack of suitable habitat
observed during the 11/08/04 site visit, biological conclusions of No Effect have been
rendered for each species.

Summary
The NCDOT proposes to replace the existing structure with a 30-inch corrugated
aluminum pipe that is 45 feet long. The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the
work zone during the construction of the project. This will involve the temporary
placement of either sheet piling or sandbags in the creek 10 ft upstream and 10 ft
downstream of construction. Once the stream has been dewatered, the pipe will be
replaced. Permanent impacts at the site associated with the replacement of the structure
and minimal amounts of rip rap to protect the structure involve a total of 23 linear feet
(3 ft of surface water fill and 20 ft of rip rap). The work zone will be dewatered for
approximately 5 days. Temporary concurrent impacts to the stream from this activity will
result in the dewatering of 23 linear feet of stream. The materials used for dewatering will
be removed after construction. Fill in wetlands is also anticipated at this site. The
placement of rip rap along the inlet of the new structure will result in 36 ft2 (0.001 ac) of
fill in a fringe wetland along this unnamed tributary. (See Appendix One for USACE
Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). Construction impacts at this site total
169 ft2 in Zone 1 and 0 ft2 in Zone 2 (totaling 23 linear feet of riparian buffer impacts).
Based on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT.
Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 3 and NWP 33. Additionally, this application provides notification to the
NCDWQ as Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3376 and No. 3366

Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
