RE: Flowers Plantation Neuse River Parkway
Bridge Crossing #1
Bridge Detailed Site Plan with Impact Areas
Revised per Oct I1 Request
Dear Cyndi:
Olo -I$D~ ~/'~
This letter is in response to your letter dated October 11, 2007, in which you requested additional information
concerning your review of the proposed Bridge Crossing #1 at Flowers Plantation. Summarized below are your
comments and associated responses:
1. Please provide a separate detailed profile of your proposed bridge.
The profile has been revised to include additional information on riparian buffer zones, stream centerline
and stream bank. End bents and backfill is also identified.
2. Please revise your plan sheet to show where the bents are located. If there are no bents, be sure to clearly
indicate the type of approach you are using.
The proposed bridge is a 70' clear span without any intermediate bents. The end bents and wing walls are
identified on the revised plan sheet.
3. On your revised plan sheet, please clearly mark the stream.
The stream has been identified on the revised plan and profile sheets.
4. Please explain why the bridge cannot span Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers. It appears that the
bridge could span Zone 1 to avoid and minimize the proposed impacts to Zone 1 of the protected buffers.
The majority of riparian buffer Zone I is occupied. by_the bridge approaches. Because the slope beyond the
end bents requires rip-rap stabilization spanning this additional distance would not lessen the impact to
Zone 1 There is not enough clear vertical distance to permit vegetative growth this close to the end bent.
5. Please show on your revised plan sheet how the banks under the bridge will be stabilized.
The revised profile sheet identifies rip-rap stabilization under the bridge and outside of the stream bank.
6. Clearly show on your revised plan sheet where the end bents are for the bridge in reference to the stream
bank.
The revised profile identifies the end bent locations relative to the stream bank on either side of the stream.
