Sills, baffles, and floodplain bettches will be installed to maintaiu stream dimensions and provide aquatic life passage during periods of lo�v flo�v. .�1n off-site detour �vill be used to convey traftic during construction. The project ��ill also include some minor approach work on the existing road��vay. Enclosed are the Pre-Constrnction Notification (PCN) form, Rapanos Jtu'isdictional Porm, �T:P Mitigation Acceptance Letter, SHPO Concurrence Form, viciuiry map, USGS topograpl�ieal map, plan sheets, Culvert Suivey Report and photographs. The North Carolina Natural Heritage (NCNHP) Database was cliecked for records of tlueateiied aud eudangered species. The database lists 47 species for Transylvania Coimty that h�ve federal status. The bag turtle (Gl��ten{1�s miJ�lenbergii) is listed �s tlu�eatened dt�e to similai'ity of appearance to the listed northern bog hirtle. Eight species, Carolina nortliern (lyiug squirrel (Gloucanys snGrinus colornhrs), Appalachian elktoe (Alnsnticlontn rm�eneNmrn), uiouutain sweet pitcher plant (Snrrncei7in ri�G�•n ssp. jonesii), small whorled pogonia (I.sovin �nedeoloirles), spreading avens (Gea�n rodinlu�n), swauip pink (Helo»ins Gu!(a1a), Vi�ginia spiraea (S�iraeo ��rrgrirrmra) �nd rock gnome liclien (G��ntnoderma Ihrenre), are listed as either tln�eatened or eudangered. There is also poteutial for tlie federal listing of tlie Nortliem long-eared bat (il�fylosis septenU�ioilnlis) in the near futnre. Fourteenlh Dirision OtTice Telephone: (32R) SRC-2141 2S3 VVebster Road, Sylva, nbrlh C�u�olioa 23779 Fas: (h28) SS6-4043 Bridge No. 162 — T'r�usylvania Cowity Page 2 August l9, 2014 Appalachian elktoe is found in �vell-osygeuated streams �vitli moderate to fast flowiug water and requires stable relatively silt fi•ee substrate that is gravelly or rock. The Appalachian elktoe records in the area are from relatively large streams, the Prench Broad River, Littic River and Mills Iuver. Thcre are no records for the smaller tributaries of these streams. No Appalachian elktoe �vere oUserved during the field scoping process and records i��dicate tlie neai•est luio�vn occurrence is located approaimately <}.0 miles do�vnstrcam of tlie project in the French Broad River. Virginia spiraea occurs along rocky, flood-scoured riverbanks in gotges or canyoils. Gravel aud rock bars tliat provide habitat for flie Viiginia spiraea are laeking at the project location. Swamp pink and motmtaiu sweet pitcher plant are species that ai'e fottnd in saturated soils. Tlie project vicinity is highly disturbed and wetlands are not associated ��vitl� the site. Small ��horled pogonia genera115� occurs iu open, diy, deciduous �voods �vitli acid soil according to tlie U.S. Fish ancl Wildlife Service. However, it is also la�own to occur in a variery of habitats in Nortl� Caroliva, iucliiding along streauis. 'Tl�e project site is maintained road riglit of way, with forest area consisting of decidt�ous trees surroonding the project. Tliere are also cesidential sh�uctures located to the east and sotitheast of the biidge. The area is impacted by invasive species, such as Chinese privet; Japauese honeysuckle, nniltiflora rose, and periwinkle. The bridge site appeats to have a vei}� lo�� potential of siipporting small whorled pogouia. Records indicate the nearest known occm�re�ice of small whocled pogonia is approtimately 10.4 uiiles soutli oY the prqject area. Carolina northern fl}�ing squiirel, rock gnome lichen, aud spreading avens are species that requirc habitat found at relatively hi�h elevation. Alttiough most rock gnome licheu populations occur near or above 5,000 feet elevation, it does occm- at lo�ver elevations witliiu deep river gorges. 'I'he elevatiai at tlie subject site is approximately 2,200 fcet and vertical rock subshate required by the rock g��ome licheu is lacking uear tlie project site. Tlierefore, there is no suitable ltabitat for these species near Bridge No. 162. 'I'he US Fish aud Wildlife Serviee (USFWS) �re considering the listiug of tlie northern long- eared bat iu the fall/winter of 2014. Northern loug-eared bats are known to use trees with sloughing bark for summer roosts. Thei'efore, as prescribed by the USFWS, any tree re�uoval at tlie bridge site will be conducted bet��veen October 15 and Apcil 15 (wiuter cleariug) to prevent incidental impTCts to roosting bats. There could be indirect effects due to removal of pote�itial roost trees, birt tlie loss of stiich a small �muiber of trees in a primarily forested landscape sliould be insiguiticaut. The pt•oject is limited to the replacement of an eaisting spanning structure �vitli a bo� culvert. Erosion and scd'unentatiou control measures ��vill be iniplemeuted to fiu�ther minimize potential to adversel}� affect aquatic liabitat. No Appalacl�ian elktoe were obse�ved during the tield scoping process and records are lacking for smaller tributaries of the Prench Broad River. Siuce the uearest occupied habitat in the French Broad River is 4.0 miles downstream from the project, ��ve recouimeud a"�io effcet" determinatiou for the Appalachian elktoe. Biidge No. 162 —Trausylvania County Page 3 August I9, 2014 Terresh�ial habitat l�as been 1�ighly disturbed at tlie project site due to i•oad right of �vay and iesidential de��elopinent. The pi•oject is liu�ited iu scope and hTbitat appears to be lacking for terrestri�l threatened and eudingered species. For these reasons and those discussed above, �>�e recommend a"no effecY' determination for terrestrial threatened aud eudaugered species. This project �vas reviewed by NCDOT's Humau Environment Unit in 2013 for potential affects to l�istorical arcliitectuee and archaeology. It was deteruiiued that no survey was required for historical architectt�re. An arcliaeology smve}� ��as co�iducted on October 2 aud 15, 2013, aud it was determiued there would be no effect, and uo further archaeological investigations were necessary for this project (see attached forins). NCDOT best management practices will be used to miuimize and control sedintentation and erosion. The construction foreman �vill review all erosion and sedimentation control ineasnres daily to ensurc erosion aud sedimentation is beiug efYectively controlled. If the devices are not hmctioniug as iuteuded, tl�ey will be replaced innnediately witli better devices. Impacts to Wnters of the United States Silver Creek (DWQ Class: WS-V; B, Tr) is sho�vn on the USGS topograpl�ie map as T pereimial stream. The chanuel is �vell deluied �vith a suUsh•ate primarily composed of cobble, gravel and sand/silt and is approsimatel}� 10 fcet in widtl�. Sil��er Creek flo��s approxirnately 0.6 miles to Turkey Creek. Turkey Creek flo�vs appro�iinately I.0 mile to the Davidson River. Davidson River flo�vs approaimately 2A miles to the French Broad River. The Prench Broad River meets die definition of a Traditional Navigable Water. For these reasons, we believe Silver Creek is a Relatively Permanent Water aud is under the jurisdietion of thc U.S. Ariny Corps of Engineers. In order to construct tlie project, it will be necessary to iuipact waters of the United States in the French Broad Rivei' Basin (IIUC 06010105).

A rottd is shown rwining nor(h aloug Silver Creek, �nd looping mound b�ck to Old NC 280; �he hvo structures depicled on ihe 1906 map appe�r to also be sho�vn on the 1935 map, along �vith nt least six oNier structures in ihe project vicinity; Ihree of ihese �re ne�r the project are� .ilong Olcl NC 280. One appcars to be �vithiu or adjlcent to the south�vestern por�ion of the APG, while fhe other hvo are fiu�lher fi�om �he project limits and outsiAe of Ihe APE. The soathern structure depicted probnbly represents ihe Joshua and Julia Orr house (TV042G), which is still standing (bul hns been detenninecl not eligible for the NRHP). On-line soils dat� indicntc ih�t three soil types, �annin fine sandy loam, IS-30°/o slopes, Tate llne s�ndy lo�m, 8—I S% slopes, and Cullowhee-Ela complex, 0-3% slopes, occasionally flooded (NRCS 2013) are �vilhin tlie project nrea. Thc archaeologic�l field swvcy included � system�tic wnikover of Ihe APE to search for abovo-ground fe�tures and the excnv��ion of 20 shovel tes�s in areas lacking st�nding waler, �vcllanA soils, or signs of severe distnrbance. The shovel �ests measured 30 cm in diame[er and +vere excavnted to subsoil or �l lenst 75 cm belo�v surface (cmbs); all soils Ihat were not obvious fill were dry-screened Ihrough '/a-inch mesh. The northeastern portion of the projecl area is steeply sloped and was not suitlble for shovel testing (figure 3). \Uilhin Ihe southweslern �nd soulheastern qundranls, surFace evidence of �n old road was notecl, bul no subsurface �rfifacts were founcl within the shovel tests excavaled in these areas (STs 9-15). This appears to be an oldcr �lignment of Old NC 280; laige sec�ions of concrete (some displ�ced), rock, .1YUNA'UO,YdL Ifl:'(il5'//;ft li! l(i/Hl li OR LL141iD ARC{IAEOLIXi!(>IL.II/lid' PRhBL,VTOR AF/�%CJEU /„��/ ,n�mo, r �,��an�r,�,� raq,.�� ,�, ��if.•n;,, �n.- zam r.�,A.��,��m�..ts.� �„�.,,�.

The slruchue depicted on lhe 1935 USGS quad�.vigle (USGS 1935) tha� appeTred to be wilhin or adjacenl to �he soulhwestern portion of ihe APE would have been situated on the south side of the old ro�d nlignment, no evidence of tl�at structure was found during ihe cmrenl work, �nd it was presumably oulside of the APE. 'I'he sin vey discovered one arcliaeologic�l site, 3I'I'V 1074, in the norlhwestern quadrant of the projecl are� (see Figure 2; T�ble I). Site 31'f V 1074 is loc�ted rloug a woodeA terrace, soutlnvest of n small unnamed drainage, wcst of Silver Creek (figwc S). Soils at the site are relatively consislent nnd coiisist of a 20-30 cm thick dark yellowish bro�vn Q OYR 3/�I) lo�m A or Ap horizon, alop a dark yellowish brown ( IOYR 4/6) snndy lonm to sandy clay loam [3 horizon. Dark brown ( I OYR 3/3) s�ndy clay loam wilh cleiise pebbles and cobbles �vns encountered at a depth of 45-53 cin belo�v surface (cmbs) (�igures 6 and 7). 'fhe present landowner indicated ihe land used to be a livestock field, but hacl not been used as such for nt lenst 60 ye�rs. Si� shovel tests cont�ined cidlurnl mnterial, and n single I x I m �est unit tvas excavated lo g�ther roore inFormation on soils and components preseN (Tables 2 �nd 3). A total of67 �rtiFacts wcre recovered including 63 lithic artifncts, Iwo sherds, �nd lwo pieces of inetal. Eighteen of the 65 prehistoric nrlif�cts were recovered liom shovel tests, �rtil;�c� density r�nged from one to seven ariifacts per lesL ArtifTCls were recovered froin bo�h the A/Ap tind F3 horizons �o depths up l0 50 embs, .dlhuugh mosl nr�ifacls �vere recoverecl finm Ihe upper 35 cmbs.'I'he reinainder or the nrtifacts were recovered from the test unil, .dmost exclusively Gom the plowzone. The hvo prehistoric shercls hnve unidentified surface decorations and cannot be assigned to auy specific time period. The li�hic �rtit�ds include one non-diaguoslic projeclile poinUkuife (pp/k) Gagment, four bif�ce or prcform frngments, 46 pieces of debilage (including fl�kes nnd shTtter), and I2 pieces of fire- cracked rock (f CR). The chipped stone raw m�terials consist of chert (n=20), quar�z (u=17), and qu�rtzile Qi=14). Both of the met�l �rtit;�cts ere hcavily corroded, but are probable fragmcnts of �vire n�ils; �hese are not lhought to represent a significant hisforic component �f the sile. 31 TV 1074 ahnost certninly continues nordi outside Ihe cw�renl project APE; Ihe I�ndform rises in �hnt direction nnd con�ains a rclatively broad, (la� area. As defined witliin fl�e curreul APG, however, the site is relatively Iow densiq� nnd is unlikely to contein intact cultur�l fe�tures nnd well slratitied deposits. Site 31"f V 1074 is recommended ineligible for the N�tionnl Register of Historic Places (NRIiP) �vithin �he APE. Based ou thc resulls of ihe backgrouud research and (ield smvey, there is no evidence thnt NIZHP-eligible arcli�eologicnl resources me situated wilhin the Bridge 162 APE.
