Gilmore, P.E., Manager NCDOT Project Development and Environmental Analysis Branch 1548 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1548 Dear Mr. Gilmore: Thank you for your June 21, 2001, request for information from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) on the potential environmental impacts of proposed bridge replacements in Franklin and Wake Counties, North Carolina. This report provides scoping information and is provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) (16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). This report also serves as initial scoping comments to federal and state resource agencies for use in their permitting and/or certification processes for this project. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace the following bridge structures: ,1 1. B-4515 Bridge No. 40 on SR 1235 over Bear Swamp Creek; `2. B-3916 Bridge No. 63 on US 401 over Middle Creek; and, ?. B-4299 Bridge No 255 on SR 1006 over unnamed creek. The following recommendations are provided to assist you in your planning process and to facilitate a thorough and timely review of the project. Generally, the Service recommends that wetland impacts be avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practical as outlined in Section 404 (b)(1) of the Clean Water Act Amendments of 1977. In regard to avoidance and minimization of impacts, we recommend that proposed highway projects be aligned along or adjacent to existing roadways, utility corridors, or previously developed areas in order to minimize habitat fragmentation and encroachment. Areas exhibiting high biodiversity or ecological value important to the watershed and region should be avoided. Crossings of streams and associated wetland systems should use existing crossings and/or occur on a structure wherever feasible. Where bridging is not feasible, culvert structures that maintain natural water flows and hydraulic regimes without scouring, or impeding fish and wildlife passage, should be employed. Highway shoulder and S median widths should be reduced through wetland areas. Roadway embankments and fill areas should be stabilized by using appropriate erosion control devices and techniques. Wherever appropriate, construction in sensitive areas should occur outside fish spawning and migratory bird nesting seasons. i. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps of the Ingleside and Lake Wheeler 7.5 Minute Quadrangles show wetland resources in the specific work areas. However, while the NWI maps are useful for providing an overview of a given area, they should not be relied upon in lieu of a detailed wetland delineation by trained personnel using an acceptable wetland classification methodology. Therefore, in addition to the above guidance, we recommend that the environmental documentation for this project include the following in sufficient detail to facilitate a thorough review of the action. The extent and acreage of waters of the U.S., including wetlands, that are to be impacted by filling, dredging, clearing, ditching, or draining. Acres of wetland impact should be differentiated by habitat type based on the wetland classification scheme of the National Wetlands Inventory. Wetland boundaries should be determined by using the 1987 Corps of Wetlands Delineation Manual and verified by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps). 2. If unavoidable wetland impacts are proposed, we recommend that every effort be made to identify compensatory mitigation sites in advance. Project planning should include a detailed compensatory mitigation plan for offsetting unavoidable wetland impacts. Opportunities to protect mitigation areas in perpetuity, preferably via conservation easement, should be explored at the outset. The document presents a number of scenarios for replacing each bridge, ranging from in-place to relocation, with on-site and off-site detours. The Service recommends that each bridge be replaced on the existing alignment with an off-site detour. The enclosed list identifies the federally-listed endangered and threatened species, and Federal Species of Concern (FSC) that are known to occur in Franklin and Wake Counties. The Service recommends that habitat requirements for the listed species be compared with the available habitats at the respective project sites. If suitable habitat is present within the action area of the project, biological surveys for the listed species should be performed. Environmental documentation that includes survey methodologies, results, and NCDOT's recommendations based on those results, should be provided to this office for review and comment. FSC's are those plant and animal species for which the Service remains concerned, but further biological research and field study are needed to resolve the conservation status of these taxa. Although FSC's receive no statutory protection under the ESA, we would encourage the NCDOT to be alert to their potential presence, and to make every reasonable effort to conserve them if found. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program should be contacted for information on species under state protection. I k' The Service appreciates the opportunity to comment on this project. Please continue to advise us during the progression of the planning process, including your official determination of the impacts of the project. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact Tom McCartney at 919-856-4520, Ext. 32. Sincerely, (,6N r. Garland B.

The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated received November 2, 2004. This approval shall act as your Authorization Certificate as required within the Tar-Pamlico River Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0259). In addition, you should get any other required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control. This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below). Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ and submit a new application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter, and is thereby responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to remain valid, you must adhere to the conditions listed in the attached certification. 1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401 Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project. 2.) If the old bridge is removed, no discharge of bridge material into surface waters is preferred. Strict adherence the Corps of Engineers guidelines for bridge demolition will be a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification. 3.) All stormwater runoff shall be directed to sheetflow through stream buffers at nonerosive velocities, unless approved otherwise by this certification. 4.) During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or protected riparian buffers. 5.) Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season following completion of construction.

The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream above and below the crossing should not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic conditions. 7.) Any riprap used must not interfere with thalweg performance and aquatic life passage during low flow conditions. 8.) All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. 9.) Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is prohibited. 10.) The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this authorization shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts to areas within the fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification. 11.) There shall be no excavation from or waste disposal into jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this permit without appropriate modification of this permit. Should waste or borrow sites be located in wetlands or stream, compensatory mitigation will be required since it is a direct impact from road construction activities. 12.) Pursuant to NCAC15A 2B.0259(6), sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in Zone I of any Tar-Pamlico Buffer without prior approval by the NCDWQ. At this time, the NCDWQ has approved no sediment and erosion control devices in Zone 1, outside of the approved project impacts, anywhere on this project. Moreover, sediment and erosion control devices shall be allowed in Zone 2 of the buffers provided that Zone 1 is not compromised and that discharge is released as diffuse flow. 13.) Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream. 14.) No live or fresh concrete shall come into contact with waters of the state until the concrete has hardened 15.) The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances must rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the wetted stream channel under authorization of this permit, except in the immediate vicinity of the culverts. 16.) All work shall be performed during low or normal flow conditions. 17.) A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be posted on the construction site at all times. In addition, the Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer and the on-site project manager. 18.) All protected riparian buffers impacted by the placement of temporary fill or clearing activities shall be restored to the preconstruction contours and revegetated with native woody species upon completion of the project construction. A post-construction as-built with the restoration activities included shall be submitted to the DWQ no later than 60 days after the project is closed out by the Department of Transportation.

The NCDOT proposes to replace Bridge No. 40 over Bear Swamp Creek with a 3 span, cored slab bridge using top down construction. The new bridge will be 130 feet long with no bents in the water. Bear Swamp Creek [DWQ Index #28-23] is a jurisdictional stream in the Tar River Basin and therefore is subject to the Tar-Pamlico River Basin Buffer Rules. Tar-Pamlico River Basin Buffer Rules As previously noted, this project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin (subbasin 030301, HUC 03020101). Bear Swamp Creek originates north of SR 1002 in Franklin County and flows southwest to its confluence with the Tar River south of the study area. Buffer impacts associated with this project are 1339 sq. ft. for Zone 1 and 3105 sq. ft. for Zone 2. There will be a total of 4444 sq. ft. of impacts to the riparian buffers as a result of the bridge replacement. According to Administrative Code Section 15A NCAC 0213.0259 (6), bridges are ALLOWABLE. Uses designated as allowable may proceed within the riparian buffer provided that there are no practical alternatives to the requested use pursuant to Item (8) of this Rule.

There will be 3 preformed scour holes outside the buffer zone to slow velocities and to ensure diffusion of flow before entering the buffer. The creek will be bridged from high ground to high ground such that no fill will be placed in the surface waters; the side slope of SR 1235 will be primarily at 2:1 with a small area at a maximum of 4:1. Bridge Demolition: The NCDOT and all potential contractors will follow appropriate guidelines for bridge demolition and removal as presented in NCDOT's Guidelines for Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and Removal. Components of the superstructure will be removed without any structure falling into Waters of the United States. The substructure consists of timber; this will be removed without dropping any portion into Waters of the United States. It is anticipated that there will be no temporary fill associated with demolition and removal of the superstructure and substructure. Utility Impacts: There are two Sprint telephone utility poles with aerial lines crossing Bear Swamp Creek perpendicularly inside the buffer zone on this project. These poles will be removed with equipment that will be placed on the road (SR 1235). Once the aerial lines are removed, Sprint plans to reinstall the telephone lines using directional bore method. All equipment and machinery will be located outside the buffer zones. According to 15A NCAC 02B.0259 (6) Rule, non electric utility lines that are perpendicular crossings and disturb equal to or less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer with a maintenance corridor equal to or less than 10 feet in width are EXEMPT. Impacts from the proposed reinstallation of the Sprint utility poles will not be more that 40 linear feet with a maintenance corridor less than 10 feet. Rare and Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classification of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA). As of January 29, 2003 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists seven federally-protected species for Franklin County (see Table 1). Table 1. Federally-protected species for Franklin County.

Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC 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 Page 9 of 122 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 incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stn-ngide.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. NA 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): NA Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): NA Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ) Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land? Yes ® No ? Page 10 of 122 If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ® No ? If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ® No ? X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information: Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers.

Thorpe, Ph.D. n'T,gt ptAa?. North Carolina Department of Transportation Project Development and Environmental Analysis 1548 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1548 Dear Dr. Thorpe: This letter is in response to your letter of February 12, 2004 which provided the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) with the biological conclusion of the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) that the replacement of Bridge No. 40 on SR 1235 over Bear Swamp Creek in Franklin County (TIP No. B-4515) may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect the federally-endangered dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) and the Tar spinymussel (Elliptio steinstansana). These comments are provided in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). According to the information you submitted, mussel surveys were conducted at the project site on June 1 and 5, 2003. The survey extended 100 meters upstream and 400+ meters downstream of SR 1235. Neither of the federally listed species was found. Based on the information provided and other information available, the Service concurs with your conclusion that the proposed bridge replacement may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect the dwarf wedgemussel and Tar spinymussel. We believe that the requirements of section 7 (a)(2) of the ESA have been satisfied. We remind you that obligations under section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if. (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered in this review; (2j this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by this identified action. The Service appreciates the opportunity to review this project. If you have any questions regarding our response, please contact Mr. Gary Jordan at (919) 856-4520 (Ext. 32).

Green Sheet Categorical Exclusion October 2003 FRANKLIN COUNTY BRIDGE NO.. 40 ON SR 1235 (DYKING ROAD) OVER BEAR SWAMP CREEK FEDERAL-AID PROJECT NO. BRZ-1235(1) STATE PROJECT NO. 8.2360601 T.I.P. NO. B4515 INTRODUCTION The replacement of Bridge No. 40, located on SR 1235 (Dyking Road) over Bear Swamp Creek, in Franklin County, is included in the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) 2004-2010 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) as B4515 and the Federal-Aid Bridge Replacement Program (BRZ-1235(1)). The location is shown in Figure 1. No substantial impacts are anticipated. The project is classified as a Federal "Categorical Exclusion". 1. PURPOSE AND NEED The NCDOT Bridge Maintenance Unit records indicate Bridge No. 40 has a sufficiency rating of 13.4 out of a possible 100 for a new structure. The bridge is considered to be structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. The replacement of this inadequate structure will result in safer and more efficient traffic operations. II. EXISTING CONDITIONS Bridge No. 40 is located approximately 1.0 mile west of US 401 / NC 39 on SR 1235 (Dyking Road) north of Louisburg in Franklin County. Refer to Figures 2 and 3 for photos of the existing project area. Bridge No. 40, was constructed in 1961, and has a sufficiency rating of 13.4 out of a possible 100. The bridge is currently posted to restrict weight limits, 19 tons (17.2 metric tons) for single vehicles and 22 tons (20.0 metric tons) for truck-tractor semi-trailers. The overall length of the two-span structure is 41.0 ft (12.5 m). It has a clear roadway width of 24.2 ft (7.4 m) that includes two travel lanes over the bridge. The superstructure consists of a timber deck on steel I-beams with an asphalt wearing surface. The end and interior bents are constructed of timber piles and caps. A steel crutch bent has been added to help support the floor beams near the west abutment. SR 1235 is classified as a rural minor collector in the Statewide Functional Classification System. The estimated 2003 average daily traffic (ADT) volume is 1,350 vehicles per day (vpd). The percentages of truck traffic are 1 percent TTST vehicles and 2 percent dual-tired vehicles. The projected 2030 ADT is 2,350 vpd. The two-lane facility measures approximately 20 ft (6.0 m) in width and has variable (approximately 3 - 6 ft (0.9 - 1.8 m)) grassed shoulders on each side of the roadway. The horizontal alignment of SR 1235 is straight and the vertical alignment is generally flat within the project area with slight upward grades both east and west from the bridge. The speed limit in the immediate vicinity of the bridge is posted at 45 miles per hour (mph) (73 km/h) east of the existing bridge and at 55 mph (88 km/h) west of the existing bridge. Existing right-of-way is approximately 60 ft (18.3 m) in width. The roadway is situated approximately 17 ft (5.2 m) above the creek bed. There are utilities along the south side of SR 1235. Sprint has an underground telephone line located approximately 28 ft (8.5 m) south of the existing bridge structure. The line is aerial over Bear Swamp Creek. Overhead power lines are also located.along the south side of SR 1235 approximately 23 ft (7 m) from the existing bridge structure. There are no utilities attached to the existing structure. Utility impacts are expected to be low. This section of SR 1235 is not part of a designated bicycle route nor is it listed in the Transportation Improvement Program as needing incidental bicycle accommodations. There is no indication that an unusual number of bicyclists use this roadway. Land use within the project area is a mixture of residential properties, cultivated and wooded areas. Please refer to Figure 8. An animal clinic is located approximately 850 ft (260 m) from the east end of the bridge in the southeast quadrant. There are old bridge abutments located approximately 55 ft (17 m) north (upstream) of the existing bridge. These abutments are unstable. According to Franklin County school officials, school buses cross Bridge No. 40 eight times per day. There has been one crash reported in the vicinity of Bridge No. 40 during the period from August 1, 1999 to July 31, 2002. III. ALTERNATIVES A. Project Description Based upon the preliminary hydraulics report the proposed replacement structure will consist of a multi- span 100 ft (30.5 m) spill through bridge with a 40 ft (12.2 m) clear roadway width. The structure will provide two 12 ft (3.6 m) travel lanes with 8 ft (2.4 m) of lateral clearance on each side of the bridge. The length and opening size of the proposed structure may increase or decrease as necessary to accommodate peak flows as determined by a more detailed hydraulic analysis to be performed during the final design phase of the bridge. The roadway approaches will provide two 12 ft (3.6 m) travel lanes with 8 ft (2.4 m) grassed shoulders. The roadway approach and bridge grades will be raised approximately 3 ft (0.9 m) to meet design speed. The design speed is 60 mph (100 km/h). B. Build Alternatives Three (3) build alternatives studied for replacing the existing bridge are described below: 2 Alternative A (Preferred) Alternative A consists of replacing the bridge in-place with a new bridge. During construction, traffic will be maintained by an off-site detour. Existing traffic would be detoured via SR 1237 (Beasley Road) and US 401. The detour is estimated to be 8.4 miles (13.5 km) long. Refer to Figures 4 and 5 for illustration of this alternative. The total length of roadway approach work for this alternative is approximately 900 ft (274 m). Alternative B (in-place with On-Site Detour- South) Alternative B consists of replacing the bridge in-place with a new bridge. During construction, traffic will be maintained by a temporary on-site detour along the south side of SR 1235. The temporary detour structure will consist of a 28 ft (8.4 m) clear roadway width with two 11 ft (3.3 m) travel lanes and 3 ft (0.9 m) of lateral clearance on each side of the bridge. The temporary detour structure is an approximate 90 foot (27 m) bridge with spill-through slopes. The roadway approaches will provide two 11 ft (3.3 m) travel lanes with 6 ft (1.8 m) grassed shoulders. The temporary detour design speed is 40 mph (65 km/h). Refer to Figure 6 for illustration of this alternative. The total length of roadway approach work for this alternative is approximately 900 ft (274 m) and the length of the temporary detour is approximately 1,100 ft (335 m). This alternative was not selected because it has greater impacts to wetlands, floodplains and utilities than Alternative A. It also involves more borrow material and has a greater cost. Alternative C (In-Place with On-Site Detour- North) Alternative C consists of replacing the bridge in-place with a new bridge. During construction, traffic will be maintained by a temporary on-site detour along the north side of SR 1235. The temporary detour structure will consist of a 28 ft (8.4 m) clear roadway with two 11 ft (3.3 m) travel lanes and 3 ft (m) of lateral clearance on each side of the bridge. The temporary detour structure is an approximate 90 foot (27 m) bridge with spill-through slopes. The roadway approaches would provide two 11 ft (3.3 m) travel lanes with 6 ft (1.8 m) grassed shoulders. The temporary detour design speed is 40 mph (65 km/h). Refer to Figure 7 for illustration of this alternative. The total length of roadway approach work for this alternate is approximately 900 ft (274 m) and the length of the temporary detour is approximately 1,100 ft (335 m). This alternative was not selected because it has greater impacts to wetlands, floodplains and utilities than Alternative A. It also involves more borrow material and has a greater cost. C. Alternatives Eliminated From Further Discussion A "Do-Nothing" alternative will eventually necessitate closure of the bridge due to its poor condition. This is not desirable due to the traffic service provided by SR 1235. Investigation of the existing structure by the NCDOT Bridge Maintenance Unit indicates that rehabilitation of the old bridge is not feasible due to its age and deteriorated condition. D. Preferred Alternative Alternative A consists of replacing the bridge in-place with a new bridge. During construction, traffic will be maintained by an off-site detour. This alternative was selected as the Preferred Alternative because it has less impact to wetlands, floodplains and utilities. Alternative A also has a lower cost than Alternatives B or C. The Division Engineer concurs with Alternative A as the preferred alternative. IV.

V. NATURAL RESOURCES Natural resources within the project study area were evaluated to provide: 1) an assessment of existing vegetation, wildlife, protected species, streams, wetlands, and water quality; 2) an evaluation of probable impacts resulting from construction; and 3) a preliminary determination of permit needs. A. Methodology Materials and research data in support of this investigation have been derived from a number of sources. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute quadrangle topographic maps of Louisburg, NC (USGS 1978) and Ingleside, NC (USGS 1979) were consulted to determine physiographic relief and to assess landscape characteristics. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) National Wetlands Inventory mapping was also consulted to determine what potential wetland types may be encountered in the field. Detailed soils information was obtained from the Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District. A county soil 4 survey is currently being prepared by Franklin County. Recent aerial photography (scale 1 inch = 200 feet) was furnished by NCDOT prior to starting the field investigation. Aerial photography served as the basis for mapping plant communities and wetlands. Plant community patterns were identified from available mapping sources and then field verified during May 2001. Plant community descriptions are based on a classification system utilized by the NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) (Schafale and Weakley 1990). When appropriate, community classifications were modified to better reflect field observations. Vascular plant names typically follow nomenclature found in Radford et al. (1968). Jurisdictional areas were identified using the three parameter approach (hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, wetland hydrology) following U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) delineation guidelines (DOA 1987). Jurisdictional areas were characterized according to a classification scheme established by Cowardin et al. (1979). Water resource information for Bear Swamp Creek was derived from the most recent versions of the Tar- Pamlico River Basinwide Water Quality Plan (DWQ 1999), Basinwide Assessment Report-Tar-Pamlico River Basin (DWQ 1998), and several NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) internet resources. Quantitative sampling was not undertaken to support existing data. At the time of the field investigation, the most current USFWS list of federal protected species listed for Franklin County was dated February 26, 2001, and this list was reviewed prior to the field investigation. Currently, the most recent USFWS list is dated February 18, 2003. No additional species have been listed for Franklin County. In addition, NHP records, documenting the presence of federal or state listed species within the project study area were consulted before commencing the field investigation and an updated records search was performed on December 20, 2001, April 12, 2002 December 10, 2002 and May 15, 2003. Direct observations of terrestrial and aquatic wildlife were documented, and expected population distributions were determined through observations of available habitat and review of supportive documentation found in Martof et al. (1980), Webster et al. (1985), Menhinick (1991), Hamel (1992), Rohde et al. (1994), and Palmer and Braswell (1995). Quantative calculations were based on the worst-case scenario using the 100-foot (30-meter) right of way limits (minus the existing right of way), the width and length of the replacement structure, the width of the stream for aquatic impacts, and the length of the project approaches. The actual construction impacts should be less, but without specific replacement structure design information, the worst case was assumed for the impact calculations. B. Physiography and Soils The project study area is located in the Piedmont Physiographic Province of North Carolina. The topography in the project study area is generally characterized as nearly level. Elevations in the project study area range from 195 to 250 feet (59 to 76 m) above sea level (USGS 1978, 1979). The project study area consists of existing maintained right-of-way, pine/hardwood forest, successional land, agricultural 5 land, piedmont alluvial forest, and maintained/disturbed land. Current land use in the project vicinity is a mixture of rural residential, agriculture and forested. The project study area crosses four soil mapping units based on information provided by the Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District. These soils include Wedowee sandy loam, Helena sandy loam, Wake-Wateree-Wedowee complex, and Chewacla and Wehadkee soils and are described below. Wedowee sandy loam is a gently sloping, well-drained soil with a loamy surface layer and clayey subsoil; on Piedmont uplands. It is derived from felsic crystalline rock. Helena sandy loam is a strongly sloping, moderately well drained with a loamy surface layer and clayey subsoil; on Piedmont uplands. It is derived from a mixture of felsic, intermediate, or mafic igneous or high- grade metamorphic rock. Wake-Wateree-Wedowee is a gently sloping to moderately steep, excessively drained to well-drained soils that have a sandy or loamy surface layer and sandy, clayey, or loamy subsoil; on Piedmont uplands. It is derived from felsic crystalline rock. Chewacla-Wehadkee is a nearly level, moderately well-drained to poorly drained soils that have a loamy surface layer and a loamy subsoil; on floodplains and terraces. It is derived from metamorphic or igneous rock. Hydric soil units mapped as occurring within the project study area include the Chewacla and Wehadkee series (Fluvaquentic Dystrochrepts and Typic Fluvaquents) which are frequently flooded. Non-hydric soil units that may contain hydric inclusions mapped as occurring in the project study area include the Helena series (Aquic Hapludults), which are moderately well drained to somewhat poorly drained and may contain inclusions of Wehadkee in depressions and drainageways. Non-hydric soils mapped as occurring within the project study area include the Wake-Wateree-Wedowee series (Ldhic Udipsamments-Typic Dystrochrepts-Typic Kanhapludults). C. Water Resources CA. Waters Impacted The project study area is located within sub-basin 030301 of the Tar-Pamlico River Basin (DEM 1998) and is part of USGS hydrologic unit 03020101 (USGS 1974). Bear Swamp Creek originates north of SR 1002 in Franklin County and flows southwest to its confluence with the Tar River south of the study area. This stream has been assigned Stream Index Number (SIN) 28-23 by the DWQ from its source to the Tar River. C.2. Waters Resource Characteristics Bear Swamp Creek is a perennial stream with moderate flow over substrate consisting of sand and silt. The channel ranges in width from 12 to 30 feet (3.7 to 9.1 m). The water depth ranges from 3 feet (0.9 m) to 5 feet (1.5 m). A geomorphic characterization of the stream section within the project study area indicates Bear Swamp Creek is an "F" type channel (Rosgen 1996). The stream occurs on a terrace- bounded alluvial valley and has moderate sinuosity. The "F" designation indicates that the stream has an entrenched meandering riffle/pool channel on a low gradient with high width/depth ratio (Rosgen 1996). 6 Bear Swamp Creek has been assigned a best usage classification of WSIV NSW (DEM 1993, DENR 2001). The WSIV designation indicates waters protected as water supplies which are generally in moderately to highly developed watersheds; point source discharges of treated wastewater are permitted in these waters, pursuant to Rules .0104 and .0211 of 15A NCAC 213; however, local programs to control nonpoint source and stormwater discharge of pollution are required. The NSW supplemental classification indicates Nutrient Sensitive Waters which require limitations on nutrient inputs. No Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters (HQW), WS I, or WS-II Waters occur within 1.0 miles (1.6 km) upstream or downstream of the project study area (DEM 1993, DENR 2001). Bear Swamp Creek is not designated as a North Carolina Natural and Scenic River, nor as a National Wild and Scenic River. One method used by DWQ to monitor water quality is through long-term monitoring of macroinvertebrates. In 1997, benthic macroinvertebrate samples were taken downstream of the study area at SR 1229 on the Tar River. The sampling location received a bioclassification of Good (DWQ 1998). Another measure of water quality being used by the DWQ is the North Carolina Index of Biotic Integrity (NCIBI), which assesses biological integrity using the structure and health of the fish community. No NCIBI sampling has been completed on this stream or its receiving waters within subbasin 030301 in Franklin County (DWQ 1998). Discharges that enter surface waters through a pipe, ditch or other well-defined point of discharge are broadly referred to as "point sources". A total of 20 permitted dischargers are located in this subbasin. There are no permitted point source dischargers located on Bear Swamp Creek or any of its upstream tributaries. One permitted point source discharger is located on the Tar River downstream from the study area. C.3. Anticipated Impacts to Water Resources Short-term impacts to water quality, such as sedimentation and turbidity, may result from construction- related activities. Temporary construction impacts due to erosion and sedimentation will be minimized through implementation of a stringent erosion control schedule and the use of BMP's. The contractor will follow contract specifications pertaining to erosion control measures as outlined in 23 CFR 650 Subpart B and Article 107-13 entitled Control of Erosion, Siltation, and Pollution pursuant to NCDOT's Standard Specifications for Roads and Structures. These measures include: the use of dikes, berms, silt basins, and other containment measures to control runoff and elimination of construction staging areas in floodplains and adjacent waterways. Disturbed sites will be revegetated with herbaceous cover after any temporary construction impacts Other impacts to water quality, such as changes in water temperature as a result of increased exposure to sunlight due to the removal of stream-side vegetation or increased shade due to the construction of the bridges, and changes in stormwater flows due to changes in the amount of impervious surface adjacent to the stream channels, can be anticipated as a result of this project. However, due to the limited amount of overall change in the surrounding areas, impacts are expected to be temporary in nature. 7 No adverse long-term impacts to water resources are expected to result from the alternatives being considered. The proposed project calls for replacement of the bridge in-place across Bear Swamp Creek, which will allow for continuation of present stream flow within the existing channel, thereby protecting stream integrity. Alternatives with on-site detours (Alt. B and Alt. C) will utilize a temporary bridge which will also allow for continuation of stream flow. CA. Impacts Related to Bridge Demolition and Removal In order to protect the water quality and aquatic life in the area affected by this project, the NCDOT and all potential contractors will follow appropriate guidelines for bridge demolition and removal. These guidelines are presented in three NCDOT documents entitled Pre-Construction Guidelines for Bridge Demolition and Removal, Policy: Bridge Demolition and Removal in Waters of the United States, and Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and Removal. Components of the superstructure will be removed without dropping them into Waters of the United States. The substructure consists of timber; this will be removed without dropping any portion into Waters of the United States. It is anticipated that there will be no temporary fill associated with demolition and removal of the superstructure and substructure. Because no moratoriums apply, this project falls under Case 3 (no special restrictions) of the Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and Removal. D. BIOTIC RESOURCES D.I. Plant Communities Distribution and composition of plant communities throughout the project study area reflect landscape-level variations in topography, soils, hydrology, and past and present land use practices. When appropriate, the plant community names have been adopted and modified from the NHP classification system (Schafale and Weakley 1990) and the descriptions written to reflect local variations within the project study area. Five plant communities were identified within the project study area: piedmont/low mountain alluvial forest, pine woodlands, mixed pine/hardwood forest, agricultural land, maintained/disturbed areas, and successional areas. Piedmont Alluvial Forest - This specific community is found within the Bear Swamp Creek floodplain. The piedmont alluvial forest community is located in river and stream floodplains in which separate fluvial landforms and associated vegetation zones are too small to distinguish (Schafale and Weakley 1990). This community is characterized by location in a floodplain and the presence of alluvial species such as green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), sweet gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), river birch (Betula nigra), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), and box elder (Acer negundo). Pine Woodlands - The pine woodlands located within the project study area are non jurisdictional and located on the north and south sides of SR 1235 west of Bear Swamp Creek. These areas appear to have been planted and managed for timber production. Dominant tree species consist of loblolly pines (Pinus taeda). Shrub species consists of sweetgum, red maple (Acer rubrum), and tulip poplar (Lifiodendron tulipifera) saplings. Groundcover species consist of greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia), trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), and blackberry (Rubus argutus). 8 Mixed Pine/Hardwood Forest - Dominant species include loblolly pine, red maple, sweetgum, and tulip poplar. Groundcover consists of blackberry, poison ivy, and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica). Agricultural Land - The agricultural land consists of active pastures and a fallow field. Pastures located on the north and south sides of SR 1235 east of Bear Swamp Creek are vegetated with various grasses and are used for horse grazing. The fallow agricultural field is located on the south side of SR 1235 west of Bear Swamp Creek. This field is currently vegetated with various grasses. Maintained/Disturbed Areas - The maintained/disturbed areas located within the project study area include: roads, road right-of-ways, maintained residential yards, and areas where human related activities dominate. Roadsides are typically maintained by mowing and/or herbicides. Residential yards are dominated by various grasses, shrubs, ornamentals, and loblolly pines. Successional Area - This community type represents land that has been disturbed in the past and has begun to revert back to a natural state. The successional area located within the project study area has been logged within the past ten years. Dominant species consist of sweetgum, tulip poplar, Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), winged elm (Ulmus alata), and winged sumac (Rhus copallinum). Groundcover species consist of blackberry and Japanese honeysuckle. D.2. Wildlife The project study area was visually surveyed for signs of terrestrial and aquatic wildlife; however, little evidence of wildlife was observed during the field effort. The project study area is surrounded by a state maintained road, agricultural fields and pastures, pine forests and residential yards. Alluvial forests along streams such as Bear Swamp Creek provide cover and food and allow animals to travel between more optimal habitats. Other expected wildlife species are those adapted to ecotones between the maintained roadsides and adjacent natural forest. Few bird species were observed within or adjacent to the project study area. Bird species observed include American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos), mouming dove (Zenaida macroura), song sparrow (Melospiza melodia), and blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata). Species that commonly occur in regional alluvial forests include pileated woodpecker (Dryocopus pileatus), barred owl (Strix varia), and belted kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon). White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) tracks and evidence of beaver (Castor canadensis) activity were found within the project study area. No other mammals were observed within the project study area. Other species expected to be found in and around roadside and urban settings include raccoon (Procyon lotor), Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana), woodchuck (Marmota monax), red fox (Vulpes vulpes), gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), and eastern cottontail (Sylvilagus floddanus). Other species that may use the Bear Swamp Creek floodplain as a travel corridor include possibly bobcat (Felis rufus). No terrestrial reptiles were observed within the project study area. Species expected to occur within the project study area include eastern box turtle (Terrapene carolina), eastern garter snake (Thamnophis shfalis), ringneck snake (Diadophis punctatus), and black rat snake (Elaphe obsoleta). 9 No terrestrial amphibians were observed within the project study area. Species expected to occur within the project study area include American toad (Bufo americanus), spring peeper (Pseudacris crucifer), and northern cricket frog (Acris crepitans). D.3. Aquatic Communities Fish species documented in the segment of Bear Swamp Creek within the project study area are chain pickerel (Esox niger), largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), redbreast sunfish (Lepomis auritus), warmouth (Lepomis gulosus), creek chubsucker (Erimyzon oblongus), and eastern mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki). No aquatic reptiles were observed within the project study area. Species expected to occur within the project study area include the northern water snake (Nerodia sipedon), painted turtle (Chrysemys picta), and common snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina). No aquatic amphibians were observed within the project study area. Species expected to occur within the project study area include red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens), bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana), and pickerel frog (Rana palustds). Aquatic invertebrate surveys included kick-net surveys, limited bottom sampling, and walking all streambanks in the project study area to locate freshwater mussel middens. Visual observation of the streambanks along Bear Swamp Creek revealed evidence of the eastern elliptio (Elliptio complanata) (a freshwater mussel) and Asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea). Benthic macroinvertebrates were sampled pursuant to current DWQ protocol. Benthic organisms collected within Bear Swamp Creek were identified to at least Order and Family if possible and include dragonflies (Odonota: Gomphidae and Calapterygidae), mayflies (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae and Siphlonuridae), caddisflies (Trichoptera: Neophylax, Hydropsychidae and Polycentropodidae), crane flies (Diptera: Tipulidae), beetles (Coleoptera), stoneflies (Plecoptera:Pedodidae) midges (Diptera:Chironomidae), aquatic earthworms (Oligochaeta), leeches (Hirudinea), and snails (Gastropods: Physidae). Identifications are based on McCafferty (1998). DA. Anticipated Impacts to Biotic Communities DA.a. Terrestrial Community Impacts Anticipated impacts to plant communities are estimated based on the approximate acreage of each plant community present within both the proposed right-of-way and the temporary construction limits of the on- site alternative location. The proposed right-of-way width is 100 feet (30.5 m). A summary of potential plant community impacts is presented in Table 2. All plant community impacts are based on aerial photograph base mapping. A portion of the permanent plant community impact amount will consist of future right-of-way for the road after bridge replacement is complete. Permanent impacts due to bridge replacement will result from expansion of the existing right-of-way and are generally limited to narrow strips adjacent to the existing bridge structure and roadway approach segments. The right-of-way will be expanded from 60 feet (18.3 m) to 100 feet (30.5 m) resulting in clearing and maintenance within the new right-of-way. 10 Permanent community impacts for Alternatives A, B, and C are 1.13 acres (0.46 ha), which includes 0.51 acre (0.21 ha) of impacts to forested natural plant communities. Temporary impacts typically consist of on- site detour routes and/or staging areas. Alternative B has 0.22 acre (0.09 ha) of temporary impact, of which 0.15 acre (0.06 ha) of impact is to natural forested communities. Alternative C has 0.25 acre (0.10 ha) of temporary impact, of which 0.22 acre (0.09 ha) of impact is to natural forested communities.

DA.b. Aquatic Communities Impacts The proposed bridge replacement will not result in substantial loss or displacement of known aquatic wildlife population. Potential down-stream impacts to aquatic habitat will be avoided by bridging Bear Swamp Creek to maintain regular flow and stream integrity. In addition, temporary impacts to downstream habitat from increased sediment during construction are expected to be reduced by limiting in-stream work to an absolute minimum, except for the removal of the portion of the sub-structure below the water. BMP- BDRs will be followed to minimize impacts due to anticipated bridge demolition. E. SPECIAL TOPICS E.I. Waters of the United States Surface waters within the embankments of Bear Swamp Creek are subject to jurisdictional consideration under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act as "Waters of the United States" (33 CFR 328.3). The surface waters within Bear Swamp Creek exhibit characteristics of riverine, lower perennial, unconsolidated bottom, permanently flooded (R2UBH) waters (Cowardin et al. 1979). 11 Wetlands subject to review under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344) are defined by the presence of three primary criteria: hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation, and evidence of hydrology within 12 inches (31 cm) of the soil surface for a portion (12.5 percent) of the growing season (DOA 1987). Based on this three-parameter approach, jurisdictional wetlands to occur within the project study area in the form of palustrine, broad-leaf deciduous forested wetlands (PF01C). Only small portions of the Bear Swamp Creek floodplain are jurisdictional, and none of these jurisdictional areas are within the construction limits of the proposed bridge replacement project. E.2. Anticipated Impacts to Waters of the United States Temporary and permanent impacts to wetlands and surface waters are estimated based on the amount of each jurisdictional area within the project limits. Permanent impacts are those areas that will be in the construction limits and/or the proposed right-of-way of the new structure and approaches. Temporary impacts include those impacts that will result from temporary construction activities outside of the proposed right-of-way and/or those associated with staging areas and/or temporary detours. Temporary impacts will be restored to their original condition after the project has been completed. Potential wetland and surface water impacts are included in Table 3.

None of the three alternatives impacts jurisdictional wetlands; however, each alternative does impact jurisdictional surface waters. Within the right-of-way for Alternative A, potential impacts total approximately 0.11 acre (0.04 ha) of R2UBH surface waters along 100 linear feet (30.5 m) of stream channel. Within the right-of-way for Alternative B, potential impacts total approximately 0.16 acre (0.06 ha) of R2UBH surface 12 waters along 150 linear feet (45.7 m) of stream channel, of which 0.05 acre (0.02 ha) is considered temporary impact. Within the right-of-way for Alternative C, potential impacts total approximately 0.15 acre (0.06 ha) of R2UBH surface waters along 150 linear feet (45.7 m) of stream channel, of which 0.04 acre (0.02 ha) is considered temporary impact. Potential permanent impacts to R2UBH surface waters consist of 0.11 acre (0.04 ha) for all three alternatives; however, Alternative A does not have the additional temporary impacts the two other alternatives have as a result of the on-site detours. These potential impacts are calculated based on the proposed right-of-way limits. These impacts include areas that may be cleared for the new right-of-way, open water areas that may be spanned by the new bridge and the bridges associated with the temporary on-site detours. The totals depicted in Table 3 are considered worst-case scenarios. Most impacts can be avoided by using BMP's and not working directly in streams. E.3. Permits Section 404 of the Clean Water Act - In accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), a permit is required from the USACE for projects of this type for the discharge of dredged or fill material into "Waters of the United States". The USACE issues two types of permits for these activities. A general permit may be issued on a nationwide or regional basis for a category or categories of activities when: those activities are substantially similar in nature and cause only a minimal individual or cumulative environmental impacts, or when the general permit would result in avoiding unnecessary duplication or regulatory control exercised by another Federal, state, or local agency provided that the environmental consequences of the action are individually and cumulatively minimal. If a general permit is not appropriate for a particular activity, then an individual permit must be utilized. Individual permits are authorized on a case-by-case evaluation of a specific project involving the proposed discharges. It is anticipated that this project will fall under Nationwide Permit 23, which is a type of general permit. Nationwide Permit 23 is relevant to approved Categorical Exclusions. This permit authorizes any activities, work and discharges undertaken, assisted, authorized, regulated, funded or financed, in whole or in part, by another federal agency and that the activity is "categorically excluded" from environmental documentation because it is included within a category of actions which neither individually nor cumulatively have a significant effect on the environment. Activities authorized under nationwide permits must satisfy all terms and conditions of the particular permit. However, final permit decisions are left to the discretionary authority of the USACE. Section 401 Water Quality Certification - A 401 Water Quality Certification, administered through the DWQ, will also be required. This certification is issued for any activity which may result in a discharge into waters for which a federal permit is required. According to the DWQ, one condition of the permit is that the appropriate sediment and erosion control practices must be utilized to prevent exceedances of the appropriate turbidity water quality standard. E.4. Tar-Pamlico River Buffer Rule Since the study area is within the Tar-Pamlico River Drainage Basin, jurisdictional surface waters are subject to the Tar-Pamlico River Riparian Buffer Rules. The Buffer Rules apply to a 50 ft (15.2 m) wide riparian buffer directly adjacent to surface waters in the Tar-Pamlico River Drainage Basin. This includes intermittent streams, perennial streams, lakes, ponds, and estuaries that are depicted on USGS maps and county soil survey maps, but does not include jurisdictional wetlands (non-surface waters) regulated under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Bear Swamp Creek is mapped on the USGS map and the Franklin 13 County soils map and will be subject to the Buffer Rules. The riparian buffer consists of two distinct zones. Zone 1 comprises a 30 ft (9.1 m) wide area adjacent to the surface water that cannot be disturbed except for those specific activities that are allowed by the Buffer Rules. Zone 2 comprises a 20 ft (6.1 m) wide area adjacent to Zone 1 that is to be left undisturbed except for those activities specifically allowed by the Buffer Rules. Activities in the buffer area beyond the footprint of the existing use are classified as either "exempt", "allowable"," allowable with mitigation", or " prohibited". Table 4 provides a list of activities that may be subject to buffer rules within the project study area along with their classifications. Depending upon project alternatives, not all of the uses listed may apply, and other uses not listed here, such as utility crossings and roadside drainage ditches, among others, may be regulated under the buffer rules. Guidelines will be consulted in entirety to review all project related uses subject to the buffer rules. Table 4 Activities That May Be Subject To the Buffer Rules in the Project Study Area Use Exempt Allowable Allowable With Prohibited Mitigation Bridges X Road crossings that impact less than or equal to 40 linear feet X 12m Road crossings that impact greater than 40 linear feet (12 m) but less than or equal to 150 X linear feet (46 m) or 0.33 acres 0.13 ha of riparian area. Road crossings that impact greater than 150 linear feet (46 m) X or greater than 0.33 acres (0.13 ha of riparian buffer Temporary roads used for bridge construction or replacement provided that restoration activities X such as soil stabilization and revegetation occur immediately after construction. Activities deemed "exempt" will be designed, constructed, and maintained to minimize soil disturbance and to provide the maximum water quality protection practicable. "Allowable" activities may proceed within the riparian buffer provided that there are no practicable alternatives to the requested use. Written authorization from the DWQ or delegated local authority is required. Activities deemed "allowable with mitigation" may proceed within the riparian buffer if there are no practicable alternatives to the requested use and an appropriate mitigation strategy has been approved. Written authorization from the DWQ or 14 delegated local authority is required. "Prohibited" activities, none of which are listed above, may not proceed within the riparian buffer unless a variance is granted from the DWQ or delegated local authority. Alternative A expands the existing right-of-way from 60 feet (18.3 m) to 100 feet (30.5 m), resulting in 40 feet (12.2 m) of impact to riparian buffer through clearing of forested vegetation in Zones 1 and 2. Buffer impacts resulting from Alternative A should be "Exempt". Alternative B results in an additional 50 feet (15.2 m) of clearing of existing buffer resulting from the temporary on-site detour. Alternative C also results in an additional 50 feet (15.2 m) of clearing of existing buffer resulting from the temporary on-site detour. Buffer impacts resulting from Alternative B or C will total 90 linear feet (27.4 m) and should be "Allowable". Since portions of the project study area are within the 50 ft (15.2 m) riparian buffer zone, measurements should be taken prior to initiating any activities on the site in order to keep any stockpiled material a minimum of 50 ft (15.2) from this stream channel. Silt fences should also be erected around any stockpiled material in order to minimize the chance of erosion or run-off from affecting the stream channel. E.5. Mitigation Evaluation Avoidance - Each alternative contains jurisdictional open water areas, which will be subject to impact. However, open water will be bridged from high ground to high ground such that no fill will be placed in the Waters of the United States for any of the alternatives. Each alternative also contains riparian buffers, which will be subject to unavoidable impact resulting from clearing activities for the expanded right-of-way. Minimization - Of the three alternatives studied, Alternative A will impact the least amount of open water area and riparian buffer. Efforts to minimize impacts to open water areas and riparian buffer have been made by reducing the side slope of SR 1235 from a desired 6:1 slope to a maximum of 2:1. Mitigation - Compensatory mitigation is not proposed for this project due to the limited nature of project impacts. However, BMPs will be used in an effort to minimize impacts, including avoiding placing staging areas within wetlands. Temporary impacts associated with the construction activities will be mitigated by replanting disturbed areas with native species and removal of any temporary fill material within the floodplain upon project completion. Mitigation should not be required for the potential buffer impacts based on Table 4. F. RARE AND PROTECTED SPECIES F.1. Federally Protected Species Species with the federal classification of Endangered (E) or Threatened (T), Proposed Endangered (PE), and Proposed Threatened (PT) are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 of seq.). The following federal protected species are listed for Franklin County (USFWS list dated February 18, 2003): 15 Table 5 Federally Protected Species for Franklin County, NC Common Name Scientific Name Status Biological Conclusion Dwarf wed emussel Alasmidonta heterodon E May Effect/Not Likely to Adverse) Effect- Tar sin mussel Elli do steinstansana E No Effect Michaux's sumac Rhus michauxii E No Effect Enda ed ti nger - any na ve or once-native species in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range NHP files document one occurrence of an endangered species within 3.0 miles (4.8 km) of the project study area. The dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) has been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) southeast of the project study corridor along the Tar River at NC 56. Dwarf wedgemussel - The dwarf wedgemussel rarely exceeds 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in length. The outer shell is brown or yellowish brown with faint green rays, and the nacre is bluish or silvery white. The shells of the females are somewhat wider than those of males. This mussel species typically inhabits streams with moderate flow velocities and substrates varying in texture from gravel and coarse sand to mud with little silt deposition (FWS 1993). It is generally found in association with other mussels but is never very numerous. As with other mussel species, the dwarf wedgemussel has suffered from excess siltation in streams and rivers and from the toxic effects of various pollutants entering waterways. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION: May Effect/Not Likely to Adversely Affect A survey was performed by Mr. John M. Alderman of Alderman Environmental Services, Inc. on June 1 and 5, 2003. The survey limits were 1300 it (400 m) downstream and 330 ft (100 m) upstream of the bridge crossing. No specimens of Dwarf wedgemussel were found. Tar spinymussel -The Tar spinymussel is a small, subrhomboidal mussel that grows to approximately 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) in length. The external shell of the adult is smooth, orange-brown to dark brown, and ornamented by one or two rows of short spines up to 0.2 inch (0.5 cm) long. The shell is thicker on the anterior end and thinner on the posterior end. Preferred habitat of the spiny mussel includes relatively fast- flowing, well-oxygenated, circumneutral water over a silt-free, noncompacted, gravel/coarse sand substrate (FWS 1992). BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION: No Effect A survey was performed by Mr. John M. Alderman of Alderman Environmental Services, Inc. on June 1 and 5, 2003. The survey limits were 1300 it (400 m) downstream and 330 ft (100 m) upstream of the bridge crossing. No specimens of Tar spinymussel were found. Michaux's sumac - Michaux's sumac is a dioecious, densely pubescent rhizomatous shrub, generally 2 to 3 feet (0.6 to 0.9 m) in height that produces fruits and seeds in late summer. In the Piedmont, Michaux's sumac appears to prefer clay soil derived from mafic rocks or sandy soil derived from granite. Michaux's 16 sumac typically grows in disturbed areas where competition is reduced by periodic fire or other disturbances, and may grow along roadside margins or utility right-of-ways (Weakley 1993). Due to the absence of suitable soil types and habitat within the project study area, no impacts to this species are expected as a result of this project. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION: No effect The project study area does contain vegetative communities that could potentially support Michaux's sumac although the mapped soil units do not appear to be clay or granite derived as is typically encountered. A species specific surrey performed during the field investigation revealed no specimens of Michaux's sumac. F.2. Federal Species of Concern The February 18, 2003 FWS list also includes a category of species designated as "Federal species of concern" (FSC). The FSC designation provides no federal protection under the ESA for the species listed. The presence of potential suitable habitat (Amoroso 1999, LeGrand and Hall 1999) within the project study area has been evaluated for the FSC species listed for Franklin County and are presented in Table 6. Table 6 Federal Species of Concern (FSC) for Franklin County, NC Common Name Scientific Name Potential Habitat State Status* Pinewoods shiner L hrurus matutinus N SR Yellow lance Elli fio lanceolata Y T Atlantic i toe Fusconaia masoni Y T Yellow lam mussel Lam silis cariosa Y T Flatrock panic grass Panicum I?thophilum N SR-T Carolina madtom Noturus furiosus Y SR Threatened (T) - any native or once-native species which is likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Significantly Rare (SR) - species which are very rare, generally with 1-20 populations in the state, and generally reduced in numbers by habitat destruction. NHP files document three occurrences of FSC within 3.0 miles (4.8 km) of the project study area. The yellow lance (Elliptio lanceolata) has been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) southeast of the project study corridor along the Tar River at NC 56. Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni) and yellow lampmussel (Lampsilis cadosa) have been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) west of the project study area along the Tar River at SR 1003. No FSC were identified during the site visit. F.3. State Protected Species Plant and animal species which are on the North Carolina state list as Endangered (E), Threatened (T), or Special Concern (SC), receive limited protection under the North Carolina Endangered Species Act (G.S. 113-331 et seq.) and the North Carolina Plant Protection Act of 1979 (G.S.106-202 et seq.). 17 NHP records indicate that in addition to the aforementioned federal species of concern, three other state- listed species have been documented within 3.0 miles (4.8 km) of the project study area. Triangle floater (Alasmidonta undulata), which is listed by the State as T has been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) southeast of the project study corridor along the Tar River at NC 56. Neuse River waterdog (Necturus lewisi), which is listed by the State as SC has been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) west of the project study corridor along the Tar River at SR 1003. Squawfoot (Strophitus undulatus), which is listed by the State as T has been documented 3.0 miles (4.8 km) southeast of the project study corridor along the Tar River at NC 56. VI. CULTURAL RESOURCES A. Compliance Guidelines This project is subject to compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, implemented by the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106, codified at 36 CFR Part 800. Section 106 requires Federal agencies to take into account the effect of their undertakings (federally funded, licensed, or permitted) on properties included in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and to afford the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation a reasonable opportunity to comment on such undertakings. This project has been coordinated with the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) in accordance with the Advisory Council's regulations and FHWA procedures. B. Historic Architecture In their August 6, 2001, memorandum the SHPO stated "We have conducted a review of the project area and are aware of no properties of architectural, historic, or archaeological significance, which would be affected by the project. Therefore, we have no comment on the project as currently proposed." A copy of the SHPO memorandum is included in the Appendix. C. Archaeology In their August 6, 2001, memorandum the SHPO stated "We have conducted a review of the project area and are aware of no properties of architectural, historic, or archaeological significance, which would be affected by the project. Therefore, we have no comment on the project as currently proposed." A copy of the SHPO memorandum is included in the Appendix. VII. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS The project is expected to have an overall positive impact. Replacement of inadequate bridges will result in safer traffic operations. The project is considered a Federal "Categorical Exclusion" due to its limited scope and lack of substantial environmental consequences. Replacement of Bridge No. 40 will not have an adverse effect on the quality of the human or natural environment. The project should have an overall positive impact due to the improvement of existing, poor bridge conditions. 18 The project is not in conflict with any plan, existing land use, or zoning regulation. No change in land use is expected to result from the construction of the project. No adverse impact on families or communities is anticipated. Right-of-way acquisition will be limited. No relocates are expected with implementation of the proposed alternative. In compliance with Executive Order 12898 (Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations) a review was conducted to determine whether minority of low- income populations were receiving disproportionately high and adverse human health and environmental impacts as a result of this project. The investigation determined the project would not disproportionately impact any minority or low-income populations. There is the possibility that the overhead power line and the Sprint telephone line may be impacted. This determination will be made during final design. No adverse effect on public facilities or services is expected. The project is not expected to adversely affect social, economic, or religious opportunities in the area. The studied route does not contain any bicycle accommodations, nor is it a designated bicycle route; therefore, no bicycle accommodations have been included as part of this project. This project has been coordinated with the United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service. The Farmland Protection Policy Act requires all federal agencies or their representatives to consider the potential impact to prime farmland for all land acquisition and construction projects. The proposed project involves replacing the bridge in its existing location; therefore, no impacts to prime or locally important farmland are anticipated. No publicly owned parks or recreational facilities, wildlife and waterfowl refuges, or historic sites of national, state or local significance in the immediate vicinity of the project will be impacted. The proposed project will not require right-of-way acquisition or easement from any land protected under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966. No adverse effects to air quality are expected to result from this project. This project is an air quality "neutral" project, so it is not required to be included in the regional emissions analysis (if applicable), and a project level CO analysis is not required. Since the project is located in an attainment area, 40 CFR Part 51 is not applicable. If vegetation or wood debris is disposed of by open burning, it shall be done in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations of the North Carolina State Implementation Plan (SIP) for air quality in compliance with 15 NCAC 2D.0520 and 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments and the National Environmental Policy Act. This evaluation completes the assessment requirements for air quality, and no additional reports are required. Ambient noise levels may increase during the construction of this project; however this increase will be only temporary and usually confined to daylight hours. There should be no notable change in traffic volumes after this project is complete. Therefore, this project will have no adverse effect on existing noise levels. Noise receptors in the project area will not be impacted by this project. This evaluation completes 19 the assessment requirements for highway noise set forth in 23 CFR Part 772. No additional reports are required. During the site visit, observation revealed no existence of underground storage tanks or hazardous waste sites in the project area. Franklin County is a participant in the National Flood Insurance Regular Program. The bridge is not located in a Detailed Study Area, but is located in a Zone A floodplain. The replacement structure is proposed as an in-kind replacement and in the absence of historical problems, increased flood impacts associated with this bridge replacement are not anticipated. The approximate 100-year floodplain in the project area is shown in Figure 9. Geotechnical borings for the bridge foundation will be necessary. Based on the above discussion, it is concluded that no substantial adverse environmental impacts will result from the replacement of Bridge No. 40. VIII. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT No formal public involvement program was initiated. Efforts were undertaken early in the planning process (June 2001) to contact local officials to involve them in the project development with a scoping letter. IX. AGENCY COMMENTS Agency comments are summarized below. Letters from the commenting agencies are included in the appendix. North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) - NCWRC indicated that "there are records of state and federally listed mussels in the project vicinity. Therefore, due to the potential for impacts to listed species we request the NCDOT perform a mussel survey prior to the construction of this bridge." Response: NCDOT Environmental Specialist have conducted a mussel survey on June 1 and 5, 2003, and found no species. Franklin County Schools - The Franklin County school system commented that "this crossing provides significant access to other county roads traveled by our buses." They requested to be notified as soon as possible in advance of bridge closure so they may plan their bus routing. Response: NCDOT will provide adequate notice to Franklin County Schools so they may plan their bus routing. 20 X. REFERENCES Amoroso, J.L. 1999.

Basis for Determination: The site contains wetlands, as indicated on the data forms submitted on August 22, 2001, and stream channels with indicators of ordinary high water marks. The wetlands are located adjacent to Bear Swamp Creek, a tributary to the Tar River. Indicate Which of the Following Apply: There are waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, on the above described property which we strongly suggest should be delineated and surveyed. The surveyed wetland lines must be verified by our staff before the Corps will make a final jurisdictional determination on your property. Because of the size of your property and our present workload, our identification and delineation of your wetlands cannot be accomplished in a timely manner. You may wish to obtain a consultant to obtain a more timely delineation of the wetlands. Once the consultant has flagged a wetland line on the property, Corps staff will review it, and, if it is accurate, we strongly recommend that you have the line surveyed for final approval by the Corps. The Corps will not make a final jurisdictional determination on your property without an approved survey. X The waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, within the project limits, have been delineated, as shown in the August 22, 2001 submittal, and a desktop verification of Corps jurisdiction has been completed on this date. Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification. There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described property which are subject to the permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification. Placement of dredged or fill material in wetlands on this property without a Department of the Army Permit is in most cases a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1311), A permit is not required for work on the property restricted entirely to existing high ground.

Gilmore, P.E., Manager NCDOT Project Development and Environmental Analysis Branch 1548 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1548 Dear Mr. Gilmore: 1 AUG I ,, 200t -a o ot,,o! ?o Thank you for your June 21, 2001, request for information from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) on the potential environmental impacts of proposed bridge replacements in Franklin and Wake Counties, North Carolina. This report provides scoping information and is provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) (16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). This report also serves as initial scoping comments to federal and state resource agencies for use in their permitting and/or certification processes for this project. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace the following bridge structures: LB-4515 Bridge No. 40 on SR 1235 over Bear Swamp Creek; 2.-B-3916 Bridge No. 63 on US 401 over Middle Creek; and, 3::B-4299;- Bridge No. 255 on SR 1006 over unnamed creek. The following recommendations are provided to assist you in your planning process and to facilitate a thorough and timely review of the project. Generally, the Service recommends that wetland impacts be avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practical as outlined in Section 404 (b)(1) of the Clean Water Act Amendments of 1977. In regard to avoidance and minimization of impacts, we recommend that proposed highway projects be aligned along or adjacent to existing roadways, utility corridors, or previously developed areas in order to minimize habitat fragmentation and encroachment. Areas exhibiting high biodiversity or ecological value important to the watershed and region should be avoided. Crossings of streams and associated wetland systems should use existing crossings and/or occur on a structure wherever feasible. Where bridging is not feasible, culvert structures that maintain natural water flows and hydraulic regimes without scouring, or impeding fish and wildlife passage, should be employed. Highway shoulder and median widths should be reduced through wetland areas. Roadway embankments and fill areas should be stabilized by using appropriate erosion control devices and techniques. Wherever appropriate, construction in sensitive areas should occur outside fish spawning and migratory bird nesting seasons. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps of the Ingleside and Lake Wheeler 7.5 Minute Quadrangles show wetland resources in the specific work areas. However, while the NWI maps are useful for providing an overview of a given area, they should not be relied upon in lieu of a detailed wetland delineation by trained personnel using an acceptable wetland classification methodology. Therefore, in addition to the above guidance, we recommend that the environmental documentation for this project include the following in sufficient detail to facilitate a thorough review of the action. The extent and acreage of waters of the U.S., including wetlands, that are to be impacted by filling, dredging, clearing, ditching, or draining. Acres of wetland impact should be differentiated by habitat type based on the wetland classification scheme of the National Wetlands Inventory. Wetland boundaries should be determined by using the 1987 Corps of Wetlands Delineation Manual and verified by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps). 2. If unavoidable wetland impacts are proposed, we recommend that every effort be made to identify compensatory mitigation sites in advance. Project planning should include a detailed compensatory mitigation plan for offsetting unavoidable wetland impacts. Opportunities to protect mitigation areas in perpetuity, preferably via conservation easement, should be explored at the outset. The document presents a number of scenarios for replacing each bridge, ranging from in-place to relocation, with on-site and off-site detours. The Service recommends that each bridge be replaced on the existing alignment with an off-site detour. The enclosed list identifies the federally-listed endangered and threatened species, and Federal Species of Concern (FSC) that are known to occur in Franklin and Wake Counties. The Service recommends that habitat requirements for the listed species be compared with the available habitats at the respective project sites. If suitable habitat is present within the action area of the project, biological surveys for the listed species should be performed. Environmental documentation that includes survey methodologies, results, and NCDOT's recommendations based on those results, should be provided to this office for review and comment. FSC's are those plant and animal species for which the Service remains concerned, but further biological research and field study are needed to resolve the conservation status of these taxa. Although FSC's receive no statutory protection under the ESA, we would encourage the NCDOT to be alert to their potential presence, and to make every reasonable effort to conserve them if found. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program should be contacted for information on species under state protection. The Service appreciates the opportunity to comment on this project. Please continue to advise us during the.progression of the planning process, including your official determination of the impacts of the project. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact Tom McCartney at 919-856-4520, Ext. 32. Sincerely, p4rrolGarGarland B.

North Carolina 'MI life Resources Commission Charles R. Fullwood, Iwlccudve Director T0: Theresa Ellerby Project Development Engineer, NCDOT FROM: David Cox, Highway Project Co rt ti n3 r Habitat Conservation Program DATE: October 8, 2001 SUBJECT: NCDOT Bridge Replacements in Franklin and Wake counties of North Carolina. TIP Nos. /B-4515, B-3916, and B-4299. Biologists with the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the information provided and have the following preliminary comments on the subject project. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(c)) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d). On bridge replacement projects of this scope our standard recommendations are as follows: 1. We generally prefer spanning structures. Spanning structures usually do not require work within the stream and do not require stream channel realignment. The horizontal and vertical clearances provided by bridges allows for human and wildlife passage beneath the structure, does not block fish passage, and does not block navigation by canoeists and boaters. 2. Bridge deck drains should not discharge directly into the stream. 3. Live concrete should not be allowed to contact the water in or entering into the stream. 4. If possible, bridge supports (bents) should not be placed in the stream. 5. If temporary access roads or detours are constructed, they should be removed back to original ground elevations immediately upon the completion of the project. Disturbed areas should be seeded or mulched to stabilize the soil and native tree species should be planted with a spacing of not more than 10'x10'. If possible, when using temporary structures the area should be cleared but not grubbed. Clearing the area with chain Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries - 1721 Mail Service Center - Ralei h, NC 27699-1721 Telcohone: (919) 733-3633 est. 281 - Fax: (919) 715-7643 Bridge Memo 2 October 8, 2001 saws, mowers, bush-hogs, or other mechanized equipment and leaving the stumps and root mat intact, allows the area to revegetate naturally and minimizes disturbed soil. 6. A clear bank (riprap free) area of at least 10 feet should remain on each side of the steam underneath the bridge. 7. In trout waters, the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission reviews all U.S. Army Corps of Engineers nationwide and general `404' permits. We have the option of requesting additional measures to protect trout and trout habitat and we can recommend that the project require an individual `404' permit. 8. In streams that contain threatened or endangered species, NCDOT biologist Mr. Tim Savidge should be notified. Special measures to protect these sensitive species may be required. NCDOT should also contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for information on requirements of the Endangered Species Act as it relates to the project. 9. In streams that are used by anadromous fish, the NCDOT official policy entitled "Stream Crossing Guidelines for Anadromous Fish Passage (May 12, 1997)" should be followed. 10. In areas with significant fisheries for sunfish, seasonal exclusions may also be recommended. 11. Sedimentation and erosion control measures sufficient to protect aquatic resources must be implemented prior to any ground disturbing activities. Structures should be maintained regularly, especially following rainfall events. 12. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. 13. All work in or adjacent to stream waters should be conducted in a dry work area. Sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams, or other diversion structures should be used where possible to prevent excavation in flowing water. 14. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in stream channels in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into streams. 15. Only clean, sediment-free rock should be used as temporary fill (causeways), and should be removed without excessive disturbance of the natural stream bottom when construction is completed. 16. During subsurface investigations, equipment should be inspected daily and maintained to prevent contamination of surface waters from leaking fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. If corrugated metal pipe arches, reinforced concrete pipes, or concrete box culverts are used: 1. The culvert must be designed to allow for fish passage. Generally, this means that the culvert or pipe invert is buried at least 1 foot below the natural stream bed. If multiple cells are required the second and/or third cells should be placed so that their bottoms are at stream bankful stage (similar to Lyonsfield design). This could be Bridge Memo October 8, 2001 accomplished by constructing a low sill on the upstream end of the other cells that will divert low flows to another cell. This will allow sufficient water depth in the culvert or pipe during normal flows to accommodate fish movements. If culverts are long, notched baffles should be placed in reinforced concrete box culverts at 15 foot intervals to allow for the collection of sediments in the culvert, to reduce flow velocities, and to provide resting places for fish and other aquatic organisms moving through the structure. 2. If multiple pipes or cells are used, at least one pipe or box should be designed to remain dry during normal flows to allow for wildlife passage. 3. Culverts or pipes should be situated so that no channel realignment or widening is required. Widening of the stream channel at the inlet or outlet of structures usually causes a decrease in water velocity causing sediment deposition that will require future maintenance. 4. Riprap should not be placed on the stream bed. In most cases, we prefer the replacement of the existing structure at the same location with road closure. If road closure is not feasible, a temporary detour should be designed and located to avoid wetland impacts, minimize the need for clearing and to avoid destabilizing stream banks. If the structure will be on a new alignment, the old structure should be removed and the approach fills removed from the 100-year floodplain. Approach fills should be removed down to the natural ground elevation. The area should be stabilized with grass and planted with native tree species. If the area that is reclaimed was previously wetlands, NCDOT should restore the area to wetlands. If successful, the site may be used as wetland mitigation for the subject project or other projects in the watershed. Project specific comments: 1. B-4515 - Franklin County - Bridge No. 40 over Bear Swamp Creek. There are records of state and federally listed mussels in the project vicinity. Therefore, due to the potential for impacts to listed species we request that NCDOT perform a mussel survey prior to the construction of this bridge. Standard comments apply. 2. B-3916 - Wake County - Bridge No. 63 over Middle Creek. There are also records of state listed mussels upstream of the project. Therefore, due to the potential for impacts to listed species we request that NCDOT perform a mussel survey prior to the construction of this bridge. Standard comments apply. 3. B-4299 - Wake County - Bridge No. 255 over unnamed Creek. Standard comments apply. We are not aware of any threatened of endangered species in the project vicinity. We request that NCDOT routinely minimize adverse impacts to fish and wildlife resources in the vicinity of bridge replacements. The NCDOT should install and maintain sedimentation control measures throughout the life of the project and prevent wet concrete from contacting water in or entering into these streams. Replacement of bridges with spanning structures of some type, as opposed to pipe or box culverts, is recommended in most cases. Spanning structures allow wildlife passage along streambanks, reducing habitat fragmentation and vehicle related mortality at highway crossings.

Main Street Louisburg, NC 27549 July 9, 2001 NC Department of Transportation Attn: Mr. William D. Gilmore Project Development and Environmental Analysis 1548 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1548 Dear Mr. Gilmore, IE (Vcr? JUL 19, 2001 U ?' av?saio? ?Q i \?? NI(AYS oti eT n. r%p-?` This letter is in response to your correspondence dated June 21, 2001 regarding Bridge No. 40 on Highway SR 1235 over Bear Creek Swamp in Franklin County. I am providing information relative to the # of times daily that a school bus crosses the bridge and the impact of bridge closure on school bus operations. School buses in Franklin County cross the bridge 8 times per day. This crossing provides significant access to other county roads traveled by our buses. A solution that repairs/replaces the bridge with as little bridge closure and detour as possible will certainly help Franklin County Schools. Scheduling closure during June and July, based on our current school calendar is also highly desirable. We appreciate you allowing us to provide input on this project. Once you have decided on an action plan and schedule, please notify us as soon as possible in advance of bridge closure (if necessary) so that we may adequately plan alternate school bus routing.

Thorpe, Ph.D. North Carolina Department of Transportation Project Development and Environmental Analysis 1548 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1548 Dear Dr. Thorpe: U "6114ND81401 GROUP 0cp . 2003 WgT?RQUq /)ys'.C7/ pN This letter is in response to your letter of September 11, 2003 which provided the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) with the biological conclusion of the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) that the replacement of Bridge No. 40 on SR 1235 over Bear Swamp Creek in Franklin County (TIP No. B-4515) may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect the federally endangered dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) and will have no effect on the Tar spinymussel (Elliptio steinstansana). These comments are provided in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). According to the information you submitted, a mussel survey was conducted at the project site by Alderman Environmental Services, Inc. on June 1 and 5, 2003. The survey extended 100 meters upstream and 400+ meters downstream of SR 1235. Neither of the federally listed species was found, and habitat quality for Tar spinymussel appears to be less than optimal. Based on the negative survey results, the Service concurs with your conclusion that the proposed bridge replacement may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect the dwarf wedgemussel and will have no effect on the Tar spinymussel. We believe that the requirements of section 7 (a)(2) of the ESA have been satisfied. We remind you that obligations under section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered in this review; (2) this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by this identified action. The Service appreciates the opportunity to review this project. If you have any questions regarding our response, please contact Mr. Gary Jordan at (919) 856-4520 (Ext. 32). Sincerely, Garland B.
