Letter
Good morning all,
In an effort to become a little greener and reduce paper usage, I thought we would attempt to begin sending out our
site closeout request letters electronically versus the standard paper request that we've done in the past. I've attached
the normal signed NCDOT closeout request letter for the U-2524AB/AC UT to Hickory Creek (Sites #7, #17, and #28) &
UT No. 9 to Bull Run (Site #1) mitigation sites that you're all used to seeing for your review and would request
documentation stating that no further monitoring is required and that the site is closed. This can be done by either the
normal closeout letter that you send or electronically. Of course if anyone would like to receive a paper copy I'll be
more than happy to send one to you. I hope you all have a good weekend and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Re: UT to Hickory Creek (Sites 47, #17, and #28) & UT No. 9 to Bull Run (Site #1) Stream
Mitigation Sites; Guilford County, WBS Project # 34820.1.1, TIP Nos. U-2524AB &
U-2524AC, Action ID No. 200321137; DWQ Project No. 030909
Mr. Williams:
As you are aware, the Department has monitored the UT to Hickory Creek (Sites #7, #17, and
#28) stream relocations since their construction in February 2006 and UT No. 9 to Bull Run (Site
#1) since its construction in March 2005. The stream relocation sites are located in Guilford
County adjacent to the US 73 Greensboro Western Loop. Sites #7 and #17 are located at Sta.
11+60 -40SB REV- (Site #7) and Sta. 11+00 -40SB REV- (Site #17) and provide 952 linear feet
of stream relocation for impacts associated with the U-2524AB project. Site 428 is located at
Sta. 29+00 -40SB REV- and provides 935 linear feet of stream relocation for impacts associated
with the U-2524AB project. UT No. 9 to Bull Run (Site #1) is located at Sta. 57+80 Lt. -L- and
provides 198 linear feet of stream relocation for impacts associated with the U-2524AC project.
The stream relocations were constructed and revegetated with appropriate hardwood species. Per
permit requirements, NCDOT was required to monitor the stream mitigation sites for channel
stability by visual observation on a biannual basis for five years or until success criteria were
met.
During the monitoring period, biannual monitoring reports were submitted to the appropriate
regulatory agencies via the PDEA Natural Environment Unit's (NEU) website:

After five years of vegetation and stream stability monitoring, the UT to Hickory Creek (Sites 97,
#17, and 928) and UT No. 9 to Bull Run (Site #]) stream relocations indicate that the planted
vegetation is surviving and the streambanks remain stable at this time. Individual biannual
monitoring reports are available on NEU's website for 2006-2010.
A site visit was conducted to all sites on August 2"d , 2011 with the regulatory agencies and
NCDOT personnel present. It was determined at that meeting that the site success criteria had
been met and that no further monitoring would be required. NCDOT requests that the
appropriate resource agencies provide documentation stating that no further monitoring is
required and that these sites are closed. If you have any questions about this project, please
contact Mr. Randy Griffin at [phone].
