SUBJECT: Pipe Replacements, Springs Road NE S/D (SR 2303(23`d Ave. Pl. NE), SR 1615
(25� Ave. NE), SR 1659 (23`d Ave. NE), and SR 3008 (24`" St. Dr. NE), Catawba County
Dear Mr. Kichefski:
The North Carolina Department of Transportafion requests autharization to replace five
deteriarating pipes on state maintained roads, SR 2303(23Td Ave. PL NE), SR 1615 (25�' Ave.
NE), SR 1659 (23`d Ave. NE), and 5R 3008 (24�` St. Dr. NE) located in a subdivision off of
Springs Road NE in Catawba County.
NCDOT proposes to replace the following pipes on:
• SR 3008- replace the e�sting 50-foot, 48" CMP with a 52-foot, 60" RCP. The existing
pipe is perched appro�mately 2 feet and is �2.4% slope. A 5-ft wide x 10-ft long
scourhole has formed at the outlet. To bury the pipe to meet permit conditions would
result in a steeper slope of; tUerefore, it is proposed to place the pipe in1eY at streambed
elevation and leave the new pipe perched, with the construcrion of a"rock ladder" to
provide limited aquaric passage.
• SR 2303 (east of SR 3008)- replace the existing 52-foot, 48" CMP with a 56-foot, 60"
RCP. The existing pipe is on a 3.9% slope and a 6-ft wide x 15-ft long scourhole has
formed at t}ie outlet. Due to tbe steep slopa, it is proposed to place the inlet and ouUet at
streambed elevation and embed large riprap into the existing scourhole to provide energy
dissipation.
• SR 2303 west of SR 30081- replace the e�stiug 60-foot, 48" CMP with a 56-foot, 48"
RCP. The e�sting pipe is perched appro�mately 2 feet and is �2% slope. An 8-ft wide
x 15-ft long scoarhole has formed at the ouUet To bury the pipe to meet permit
conditions would result in a steeper slope of; therefore, it is proposed to place the pipe
inlet at streambed elevation and leave the new pipe perched, with the construction of a
"rock ladder" to provide limited aquatic passage.
• SR 1615- replace the existing 40-foot, 48" CMP with a 48-foot, 54" RCP.
• SR 1659 - replace the existing 35-foot, 48" CMP with a 40-foot, 54" RCP

SR 2303(23`d Ave. Pl. NE), 1615 (25`" Ave. NE), 1659 (23`a Ave. NE), and 3008 (24"' St. Dr. NE)

Due to the site conditions at three of the locations, NCDOT request a waiver from the
Regional Conditions 2(b)(e) permit depth specificafion for the construcrioa of this project.
Temporary cofferdam pumping systems will be used to divert the streams around the construction
sites as needed. Any azeas affected by the temporary cofferdam will be restored to pre-project
conditions.
The scope of the work will result in a total of 89 feet of permanent impacts to three unnamed
tributaries to Snow Creek, which is classif'ied as Class C Waters by the N.C. Water Quality
Section:( Cumulative impacts to la` unnamed tributary = 59 feeY; 2"d unnamed tributary = 15; 3`d
unnamed tributary = 15 feet).
The project is not located within % mile of any critical watershed azea nar is any of these roads a
rura) or urban arterial; therefore, hazardous spill basins are not required. Enclosed is the
hazardous spill basin checklist.
This office has conducted a GIS and field survey for the project threatened/endangered species on
February 4, 2014. The federally listed species for Catawba County (LISFWS listed date
September 22, 2010) include dwarf-flowered hearHeaf (Hexastydis nanfflora) and schweinitz's
sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii). National Heritage Program records document the nearest
heartleaf location 2 miles northwest of the proposed project area. The heartleaf is usually
found on dry to moist ravine slopes (usually north facing and of the oak-hickory-pine
forest type) and in boggy areas near springheads. There is no suitable habitat in the
proposed project area and no heartleaf species was observed within the project
footprint. Natural Heritage Pmgram records document the nearest Helianthus
Schweinitzii location approximately 17 miles southeast of the proposed project
area. Although the survey was conducted outside of the optimal survey window, no
plants were observed and the site is located in a regularly maintained NCDOT right of
way in a residential neighborhood; therefore, no impact on the species is anticipated.
The State Historic Preservation office resources and the National Register of Historic Places were
reviewed for historic sites in the vicinity of the project. A delineated historic site (per Arcmap) is
located in close vicinity to the road crossings; however, will not be impacted by the pipe
replacements. The project has been submitted to the cultural resources office for review. The
proposed project has been reviewed/cleazed for Historic Architecture (4/5/14). (Project Tracking
# 14-02-0033).
I have enclosed a pre-construction notifioation for a NW#3, sketches of planned activities and
location maps relative to the project.
Project information for the 401 Automated Payment Procedure is as follows:
• Work order number: 150465-55120000-12.201811-3126
• TIP#: NA
• Project Category: $240.00 Fee

SR 2303(23'� Ave_ Pl. NE), 1615 (25"' Ave. NE), 1659 (23`a Ave. NE), and 3008 (24`� SY. Dr. NE)

3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of the proposed work is to replace the deteriorating culverts for the safety of the travelling pubfic.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation requests authorization to replace five deteriorating pipes on state
maintained roads, SR 2303(23" Ave. PI. NE), SR 1615 (25�' Ave. NE), SR 1659 (23'" Ave. NE), and SR 3008 (24�h St. Dr.
NE) in Catawba County. All of the pipes are within the same vicinity (subdivision off of Springs Road NE).
SR 3008- replace the existing 50-foot, 48" CMP with a 52-foot, 60" RCP. The existing pipe is perched approximately 2
feet and is —2.4% slope. A 5 ft wide x 10 ft long scourhole has formed at the outlet. To bury the pipe to meet permit
conditions would result in a steeper slope of; therefore, it is proposed to place the pipe inlet at streambed elevation and
leave the new pipe perched, with the construction of a"rock ladder" to provide limited aquatic passage.
SR 2303 (east of SR 3008)- replace the existing 52-foot, 48" CMP with a 56-foot, 60" RCP. The existing pipe is on a
3.9% slope and a 6-R wide x 15-ft long scourhole has formed at the outlet. Due to the steep slope, it is proposed to
place the inlet and outlet at streambed elevation and embed large riprap into the existing scourhole to provide energy
dissipation.
SR 2303 (west of SR 3008) - replace the existing 60-foot, 48" CMP with a 56-foot, 48" RCP. The existing pipe is perched
approximately 2 feet and is —2% slope. An 8 ft wide x 15 ft long scourhole has formed at the outlet. To bury the pipe to
meet permit conditions would result in a steeper slope of; therefore, it is proposed to place the pipe inlet at streambed
elevation and leave the new pipe perched, with the construction of a"rock ladder" to provide limited aquatic passage.
SR 1615- replace the existing 40-foot, 48" CMP with a 48-foot, 54" RCP.
SR 1659 - replace the existing 35-foot, 48" CMP with a 40-foot, 54" RCP
Temporary cofferdam pumping systems will be used to divert the streams around the construction sites as needed. All
areas affected by temporary cofferdam system will be restored to pre-project condltions. The Project will be constructed
using typical heavy equipment (trackhoe, backhoe, etc.)
