The existing bridge is an approximately 30-foot wide channel beam structure with two approximately 11-foot travel lanes and approximately 4-foot paved shoulders.The bridge is approximately 91 feet in length.The STIP for this project was formerly 17BP.10.R.147 and is now 17BP.10.PE.147. The proposed project is state funded and proposes replacing the existing 3 span bridge with a 2 span cored slab bridge with a total length of 120 feet.The proposed bridge would be a 30-foot wide structure with two 10-foot travel lanes and 4-foot shoulders.The proposed grade across the profile of the new bridge structure is approximately 5 feet higher than the existing bridge profile in order to increase the design speed.The proposed approach roadway includes two 10-foot wide travel lanes with approximately 2-foot paved shoulders.The proposed approach roadway extends approximately 700 feet from the western end of the new bridge and approximately 330 feet from the eastern end of the new bridge.The project also requires a tie in at the intersection of SR 1134(Millingport Road)and Miller Road located approximately 50 feet west of the proposed bridge structure.The tie-in to Miller Road would extend 120 feet north of the intersection and would include two 10-foot travel lanes with 3-foot shoulders.The total length of the project is approximately 1,160 feet(0.2 mile). An eight-mile off-site detour would be required for the full duration of construction.The detour route would take vehicles on SR 1134(Millingport Road),SR 1449(Sunnybrook Road), SR 1434(Rogers Road),SR 1451(Paul's Crossing Road),and SR 1447(Frick Road). Impervious dikes will be installed on the eastern and western banks of Long Creek to prevent sediment from entering the stream during the removal of the existing bridge and will be dewatered as needed;these dikes will result in 10 If of temporary impacts.Permanent impacts of 93 If will result from bank stabilization of the eastern and western banks of Long Creek. Impervious dikes will additionally be constructed within Long Creek on the northern side of SR 1134(Millingport Road)in order to install a water line,this will cause 20 If of temporary impacts.A temporary pipe will be placed from the northern impervious dike to the southern impervious dike to allow flow to continue through the channel while the water line is installed. Erosion and sediment control measures will be installed at the outset of construction.Overall drainage patterns will be maintained.There are proposed ditches that flow towards the stream on both the begin and end sides of the downstream portion of the bridge and on the end side of the upstream portion of the bridge.On the begin side of the bridge,a traffic bearing grated drop inlet will be placed to the left side of the roadway in the shoulder berm gutter to pick up runoff from the bridge.Class-II riprap abutment protection on both banks of the stream is also proposed to prevent future erosion and stream migration. The mechanized equipment to be used for construction will include track hoes,back-hoes,bulldozers and grading equipment. 4j.Please upload project drawings for the proposed project.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation 1.Avoidance and Minimization 1a.Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project: Riprap bank stabilization for protection of the bridge abutments is being placed only on the stream banks and will not disturb the stream bed.The bridge replacement will be conducted from the upland areas/roadway approaches.Dewatering strategies,including impervious dikes,will be employed.A temporary pipe will be placed through the impervious dike north of SR 1134(Millingport Road)to minimize the disruption of flow. lb.Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: NCDOT Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities will be employed.Demolition and construction methods from the upland roadway approaches will be used to minimize potential temporary demolition related impacts and avoid construction related impacts. 2.
