On behalf of the City of Durham, Kimley-Horn is submitting this pre -
filing meeting request for a section of the proposed Northern Durham
Parkway project located in Durham, Durham County, NC. The
proposed section would extend from Ferrell Road south to Cheek
Road. The typical section of the proposed roadway would consist of a
2-lane road with curb and gutter and a sidewalk facility. The project will
be constructed through the proposed Junction Road and Ferrell Road
industrial development and the road will be built in phases. Phase I will
extend from Ferrell Road south to a point north of Panther Creek and
Phase II will extend from Phase I south to Cheek Road. The project is
aligned to tie into previously dedicated right-of-way on both the north
and south termini. The project is located within the Neuse River Basin
(03020101).
Stephanie Goss (NCDWR) conducted a field review to determine
which streams in the project area are subject to the Neuse River Basin
Buffer Rules and to identify isolated wetlands that may be subject to
State regulation on March 8, 2021(NBRRO #21-004). Additionally,
April Norton (USACE) issued a Preliminary and Approved
Jurisdictional Determination for the covering the proposed roadway on
April 9, 2021. A pre-app meeting was conducted with April Norton,
Sam Dailey (USACE), and Andy Williams (USACE) to discuss the
project permitting approach. During this meeting, it was determined
that the stretch of Northern Durham Parkway that is to be constructed
through the proposed Junction Road and Ferrell Road site would be
considered a separate project from the industrial development and
would need to be permitted by the City of Durham under a separate
permit application.
Phase I of the proposed roadway will result in unavoidable impacts to
two 404/401 wetlands, three intermittent streams, and multiple buffer
zones. All three stream and buffer crossings are proposed to be near
perpendicular. Phase II, which is still in design and would be
constructed following completion of Phase I, would result in
unavoidable impacts to Panther Creek, floodplain wetlands along
Panther Creek, and associated buffer zones. It is anticipated that
impacts resulting from Phase I of the NDP project will qualify for
authorization under Nationwide Permit #14 and corresponding Water
Quality General Certification 4135. Additionally, the project will require
a Riparian Buffer Authorization for impacts to buffer zones 1 and 2.
Please attach the documentation you would like to have the meeting about.
