Yesterday, Axiom submitted an e-PCN for stream impacts resulting from the construction of a second platform at the Salisbury Station in Rowan County. I believe you will be our NCDWR contact for this project. Andy Williams is the USACE representative for this. This morning, he and I spoke about the application and discussed changes that need to be made (examples: change the requested permit to NWP 18, revise stream bank stabilization from temporary to permanent impacts, provide additional information for stream functional assessment and Schweinitz’s sunflower habitat, apply for stream mitigation. He plans to send an e-mail to me, with you copied, sometime today listing items needed to make the application complete. I plan to respond to this e-mail with the items requested and copy you on the response. Please let me know if you need anything in addition to what Andy requests. Thanks, Sandy Alexander P.

No wonder you found nothing living in the stream. ???? I see no need to review the site for this project. It looks pretty straight forward from the data you sent and Axiom is very conscientious. I’ll send a letter out in a week or two. Let me know if you need anything further. Thanks.

Good Morning Nicholle and Dave, The NCDOT Rail Division is proposing improvements to the train station in downtown Salisbury (Salisbury Station). Axiom has conducted a potential wetland/stream delineation in the vicinity of the station, and we have been requested to obtain agency verification of our delineation. We identified one stream that we believe to be perennial. The identified stream is an approximately 182-foot long reach in a field of kudzu between two culverts (see attached photos). There was nothing living in the stream. The upstream culvert appears to be collecting water from under downtown Salisbury and flows through “catacombs” beneath the station. These are the first catacombs I have encountered professionally. The downstream culvert extends approximately 500 feet before daylighting into an urban landscape. Please let us know if you have any questions about this request or need additional information. We will be happy to meet you to look at the stream at your convenience. Thank you, Sandy Alexander P.
