No 17BP.7.R.30 N/A Federal Permit Required? County: Document: Rockingham Minimum Criteria Checklist Funding: � State ❑ Federal ❑ Yes ❑ No Permit Type: TBD Project Description: NCDOT's Division 7 proposes to replace Bridge No. 191 on SR 2337 (Carlton Road) over Jacobs Creek in Rocldngham County. Bridge No. 191 was built in 1956, and is considered to be structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. There may be minor ditch-line impacts and additional ROW is anticipated along the North side of the road. Traffic will be maintained during construction on existing local roads (i.e. offsite detour). Temporary and permanent easements are anticipated as well; however, their exact locations and dimensions are not known at this time. To incorporate possible locations for additional ROW and easements, project length along SR 2337 (Carlton Road) will measure about 305 feet from either end of the bridge and 50 feet from centerline to the south and 100 feet from centerline to the north. Based on these dimensions, the Area of Potential Effects (APE) measures approximately 95,316 square feet or about 2.19 acres, inclusive of the existing roadway and structure. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: A inap review and site file search was conducted at the Office oi State Archaeology (OSA) on Tuesday, October 21, 2014. A comprehensive archaeological survey at this particular bridge location has never been conducted, and no archaeological sites have been recorded within one-half (1/2) mile of the proposed project. Digital copies of HPO's maps (Ellisboro Quadrangle) as well as the HPOWEB GIS Service (http://gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/) were last reviewed on Thursday, October 23, 2014. There are no known historic architectural resources located within or adjacent to the proposed project corridor that may have intact archaeological deposits within the footprint of the proposed project. In addition, topographic maps, historic maps (NCMaps website), USDA soil survey maps, and historic orthophotography were utilized and inspected to gauge environmental factors that may have contributed to historic or prehistoric settlement within the project limits, and to assess the level of modern, slope, agricultural, hydrological, and other erosive-type disturbances within and surrounding the archaeological APE. Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicting that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE: This is a State-funded project that may require a Federal permit as well as permanent and temporary easements. The location of such easements is not known at this time; however, all proposed project activities are to take place within the proposed APE as deiined above. Since NCDOT's existing ROW along SR 2337 (Carlton Road) measures 60 feet wide, there may be environmental impacts beyond what is currently owned/maintained by the NCDOT. From an environmental perspective, the APE consists of the rolling and undulating terrain characteristic of the North Carolina Piedmont, and is composed of only "No ARCHAEOLOGYSURVEYREQUIRED "jorm for Minor Transportation Projects as Qualified in the 2007 Progr�arnmafic Agreement. 1 of 2 Project Tracking No.: 14-10-0003 two (2) soil types: Pacolet sandy clay loam, 8-15% slopes, eroded (PcD2) to either side of the drainage and Pacolet sandy loam, 15-25% slopes (PaE) along the side slopes of the drainage. The Ofiice of State Archaeology (OSA) has reviewed one (1) nearby project (ER 00-8890 [Goldhill Nextel Tower]) for which the probability of containing intact archaeological resources was considered low based on the presence of eroded soils and steeply sloped topography similar to what is present within the APE. Based on the overall topography, notable erosion, and hydric soils within the APE, it is believed that the project area, as depicted, is unlikely to contain intact and significant archaeological resources. Therefore, there should be no archaeological survey required for this project. If design plans change or are made available prior to construction, then additional consultation regarding archaeology will be required. At this time, no further archaeological work is recommended. If archaeological materials are uncovered during project activities, then such resources will be dealt with according to the procedures set forth for "unanticipated discoveries," to include notification of NCDOT's Archaeology Group.
