RE: Pre-Construction Notification: Nationwide Permit 23
TIP Number B-5411
Replace Bridge No. 124 over Phillips Creek on SR 1318 (River Rd)
Bladen County, NC
Dear Ms. Hair;
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace bridge No. 124 on
River Road (SR 1318) over Phillips Creek. Enclosed is an application for a Clean Water Act
Section 404 Nationwide Permit 23 and 401 General Water Quality Certification No. 3891.
The purpose of this project is to replace a bridge over a structurally deficient dam and spillway with
a culvert and improve roadway safety. The proposed culvert is of adequate size for hydraulic
passage, reduces the cost of construction and maintenance compared to a bridge, and improves
aquatic life passage through the removal of the dam and spillway. The roadway will be widened to
ensure the safety of the traveling public as the existing shoulders do not meet current design
standards. Hydrology will be restored a portion to the original downstream channel of Phillips
Creek, and the existing pond above the dam will be allowed to convert to wetlands upon completion
of the construction.
Impacts to waters of the U.S. include 110 linear feet of permanent stream impacts due to culvert
construction and removal of hydrology from the existing spillway channel as well as 20 linear feet
of temporary stream impacts due to dewatering. There are also 0.01 acres of wetland impacts
associated with culvert construction. Hydrology will be restored to 30 linear feet of stream channel
at the outlet of the proposed culvert and impact to 60 feet of tributary waters at the spillway outlet.
The contractor will be required to re-establish dimensions of the existing channel once the pond is
completely drained. Approximately 0.22 acres of pond will convert to wetland. This area will be
vegetated with an appropriate wetland seed mix after accumulated sediment has been removed.
Sills and baffles (see attached plans) have been included in the culvert design to reduce velocity
through the barrel and match existing stream channel dimensions. Some removal of sediment may
be required to tie the stream channel into the culvert, but this will be limited to the area upstream of
the culvert, as generally shown in the attached plans. To prevent headcutting, the inlet of the
B-5411 Permit Application
March 28, 2014

culvert pipe will be at the approximate elevation of the historic stream bed in the pond area, and the
outlet matches the elevation of the bed below an existing grade control point in the stream channel.
The preceding information, along with the enclosed project information sheet, Pre-Construction
Notification (PCN), vicinity map, U.S Geological Survey (USGS) map, impact summary table,
wetland and stream impact drawings, preliminary construction plans, historic and archaeological
resource assessments, and Programmatic Categorical Exclusion are being submitted for your
review. A copy of this application is also being sent to the NC Division of Water Resources for
their 401 Certification review.
If you have questions or need additional information, please contact me at (919)-606-1065

3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
Land use in the project vicinity consists primarily of residential development and agricultural areas. A forested buffer of
varying width is present adjacent to Phillips Creek.
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
Approximately 0.1 acres of wetlands are present within the study area.
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
Approximately 130 linear feet of stream channel is present within the study area
3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The project will replace an existing bridge over a dam and spillway with a pipe arch culvert. The dam and spillway have
been categorized by the NC Dam Safety Section as having "conditions that are indicators of continued deterioration that
may lead to failure". The existing bridge also has a deck geometry appraisal of 2 out of 9.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The project involves replacing the existing bridge with a 20'-1" x 12'-6" structural plate pipe arch culvert. A culvert was
chosen as a replacement structure as it provides adequate hydrologic passage and reduces cost of construction and
maintenance as compared to a bridge. In addition, the existing bridge spanned a dam, and stream flow was already
impeded. The proposed culvert will be of sufficient length to provide 11-foot lanes with 6-foot shoulders. This will provide
a safer roadway as the existing shoulders do not meet current safety standards. Minor regrading of the roadway fill slope
will occur to allow for the wider roadway. The proposed culvert is designed to restore hydrology to the original Phillips
Creek channel from which water was diverted by the spillway. The area upstream of the roadway will convert from pond
to wetland after completion of the construction. Rip rap will be placed at the inlet and outlet of the proposed culvert to
stabilize the stream banks. The existing dam and spillway will be removed and replaced with clean fill. Standard road
building equipment will be used for construction such as excavators, dump trucks, bulldozers, and cranes.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Guard rail and steep slopes are being implemented to minimize wetland impacts associated with roadway fill. An off site
detour will be used during project construction to avoid temporary impacts associated with an onsite detour. In addition, the
project will result in restoration of hydrology to 30 linear feet of the original Phillips Creek stream bed and approximately 0.22
acres of the old pond bed within the right-of-way will convert to wetlands upon completion of the project. This area will be
vegetated with an appropriate wetland seed mix after accumulated sediment has been removed. The contractor will be
required to re-establish dimensions of the existing channel once the pond is completely drained. The culvert has been
designed with sills and baffles to mimic the channel dimensions of the stream, reduce velocity through the barrel, and maintain
aquatic passage.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
NCDOT BMP's for bridge demolition and construction as well as North Carolina standard erosion control measures will be
strictly enforced throughout project construction.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for
impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
Yes No
2b. If yes, mitigation is required by (check all that apply): DWQ Corps
2c. If yes, which mitigation option will be used for this
project?
Mitigation bank

E. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWQ)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified
within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules? Yes No
1b. If yes, then is a diffuse flow plan included? If no, explain why.
Comments:
Yes No
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. What is the overall percent imperviousness of this project? 24.1 %
2b. Does this project require a Stormwater Management Plan? Yes No
2c. If this project DOES NOT require a Stormwater Management Plan, explain why: The project involves replacement of
existing infrastructure, and a negligible increase in impervious surface will result from this project (852 square feet). The
stormwater design has been reviewed by NCDOT. Stormwater will sheet flow off the roadway to vegetated areas, which
matches existing conditions. GC 3891 does not require a SMP.

Map Scale: 1:2,310 if printed on A size (8.5" × 11") sheet.
The soil surveys that comprise your AOI were mapped at 1:24,000.
Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil line
placement. The maps do not show the small areas of contrasting
soils that could have been shown at a more detailed scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for accurate map
measurements.

The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were
compiled and digitized probably differs from the background
imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor shifting
of map unit boundaries may be evident.
