Description 3a Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at time of this application The 4 000 foot long trail corridor is located southeast of I 85 exit 191 between Butner and Creedmoor in southern Granville County It extends from East Lyon Station Rd southeastward following a powerlme right of way for 2 170 feet then turns northeastward following the east edge of Pond Dnve for 1 830 feet to its intersection with NC 56 The adjacent area north of the proposed trail contains commercial industnal and institutional development An apartment complex and a mobile home community are located southeast of Pond Drive and additional residential development is located northeast of NC 56 The adjacent land southwest of the powerlme is forested and industrial land A small unnamed stream flows southeastward into Ledge Creek roughly parallel to the powerlme segment of the project 3b List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property The stream segment near the middle of the project has adjacent marsh and scrub /sapling wetlands mostly in the powerlme right of way RJG &A Environmental Consultants delineated portions of two wetlands (CA and CB) within 50 feet of the project corridor The area of wetland CA delineated is approximately 0 21 acre and the area of wetland CB delineated is approximately 0 20 acre The Granville County Soil Survey shows Chewacla loam mapped along the stream near these wetlands The wetlands may extend beyond the limits of RJG &A s field delineation (beyond the project construction impact area) 3c List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property An unnamed tnbutary of Ledge Creek parallels the powerlme and is within 50 feet of the project construction corridor for approximately 900 feet between project stations 15 +00 to 22 +00 and stations 28 +50 to 30 +50 This stream is depicted on both the USGS Quad (Stem NC) and the Granville County Soil Survey The trail will cross this stream near station 20 +60 The Soil Survey also depicts a smaller tributary crossing the corridor near station 45 +00 along Pond Drive but this channel was piped and buried when Pond Drive was built and does not exist as an open channel in the project corridor 3d Explain the purpose of the proposed project The project will provide a safer walking and biking route between the residential areas to the south and east and the commercial and institutional destinations to the north and west This new trail combined with existing trails and sidewalks is expected to decrease the number of short automobile trips 3e Describe the overall project in detail including the type of equipment to be used The project includes construction of approximately 4 000 feet of new 10 foot wide greenway trail Beginning at East Lyon Station Rd the proposed trail extends southeastward for 2 170 feet mostly within a Progress Energy transmission line easement then turns northeastward and follows the edge of an existing street (Pond Drive) for 1 830 feet Cleanng construction and restoration methods vary based upon the location of greenway trail as described below Boardwalk trail (10 ft wide) will be installed along three trail segments totaling 385 feet at stream wetland and zone 1 buffer crossings Short boardwalk sections will also be used in a few areas as passive stormwater drainage devices in lieu of pipes to get drainage from the upstream side of the greenway to the downstream side The majority of the project will be asphalt paved trail with a 10 ft wide paved surface plus a 2 ft crushed stone shoulder on each side Side slopes will be 3H IV or flatter as recommended by DWQ Nearly all of the project corridor is non forested either within the mowed powerlme easement or along the mowed roadside One segment 210 ft long (station 18 +50 to 20 +60) extends into the upland forest adjacent to the powerlme easement in order to minimize wetland and zone 1 buffer impacts The only forested land where mechanical clearing is necessary is approximately 0 21 acre of upland pine/hardwood forest in this area The trail alignment and construction access have been selected to avoid and minimize impact to trees and wetlands and to provide as much separation as possible from streams and npanan buffers The construction corridor will be generally 25 feet wide to allow 10 feet for the trail plus 15 feet for temporary equipment access Tree protection fencing will be installed prior to cleanng to protect trees and other vegetation not scheduled for removal Because of the narrow construction corridor trees will be cut down first and then the stumps removed where necessary to install the asphalt surface greenway Where boardwalk is installed trees will be cut at ground level and stumps left in the ground All cleared material will be removed from site and no on site burning will be perrmtted Tree removal will be scheduled and Page 3 of 11 PCN Form — Version 1 3 Dec 2008 3e Describe the overall project in detail (continued) coordinated such that silt fence can be installed by the end of each work day to cover the area cleared that day By working in short segments and installing silt fence daily impacts to streams and wetlands related to sedimentation and erosion will be minimized As an added measure to protect wetlands the contractor will be required to use mats when crossing wetland areas No crossing of streams with clearing equipment is planned The contractor has access to both sides of all streams thus precluding the need to cross the stream with heavy equipment Silt fence or combination silt fence /tree protection fence will be placed between the work area and the adjacent stream or wetland area to keep sediment and equipment out of the stream and wetland area Much of the greenway will occupy the transmission line easement and a sanitary sewer easement both built prior to the Neuse Buffer Rules Following corridor clearing and staking for greenway construction the contractor will begin rough grading and building boardwalk where specified While the plans do not anticipate such underground utilities will be reinforced to support additional loads where needed Small bull dozers hydraulic excavators front end loaders dump trucks and sheep s foot type equipment will be used In installing the boardwalk it is anticipated the contractor will employ a small farm tractor with an auger connected to its power takeoff The auger will excavate a three foot diameter hole (7 1 sq ft) for each boardwalk footing where sonotube and reinforcing steel will be installed and then concrete poured to support the post All excavated material will be removed from the wetland area for disposal in uplands As the greenway subgrade approaches design elevation storm drainage pipe with outlet protection measures will be installed Rip rap used for energy dissipation downstream of pipes will be bedded on geotextile fabnc Crushed stone will be delivered to the site by dump trucks After partially spreading the stone during dumping a motor grader will further spread the stone along the proposed asphalt surface segments Vibratory compactors will compact the stone base to the required compaction then paving equipment will place the asphalt Once the surface is paved the 2 feet wide shoulders and slopes will be dressed and seeded Side slopes will be 3H IV or flatter as recommended by DWQ At stream and wetland crossings silt fence will be installed between the work area and the stream Soil will be excavated for boardwalk foundations and removed from the wetland area and the concrete foundations poured The remaining boardwalk construction will require no further ground disturbance For the timber boardwalk after the foundations are installed the contractor will cut timber posts to the design elevation and install support girders support beams decking and handrail system The contractor will collect all construction debris daily for disposal All erosion and sedimentation control measures will be regularly monitored at least weekly immediately before a forecasted storm event and immediately after a storm event exceeding 1/2 inch of rainfall within a 24 hour period Remediation measures will be employed to keep the erosion and sedimentation control measures performing as designed Restoration of the disturbed area will commence near the end of construction Following fine grading all disturbed areas not covered with new asphalt or boardwalk will be stabilized by seeding and mulching Erosion and sedimentation control measures will remain in working order until disturbed areas have been stabilized with new grass No fescue or other non native perennials will be seeded in wetland areas Town of Butner staff will maintain the greenways and take measures to mitigate any local erosion problems that may occur The 2 feet wide greenway shoulder will be mowed to preclude trees and other large vegetation In the forested area just west of the stream crossing the remainder of the temporary construction corridor beyond the trail shoulders will be left to regenerate in natural forest With the exception of periodic maintenance vehicles this greenway will not carry motor vehicle traffic Thus the greenway should not contribute to road runoff pollutants except for the minor hydrocarbons from the asphalt itself Boardwalk at the single stream and wetland crossing will mimmize impacts to flow aquatic life passage soil compaction and vegetation 4 Jurisdictional Determinations 4a Have jurisdictional wetland or stream determinations by the ❑ Yes ® No ❑ Unknown Corps or State been requested or obtained for this property / project
