The three crossings are located along a 4.6-mile segment of the NCRR H-Line corridar between Milepost (MP) H-43.89 and MP H-48.49 in Orange County, NC. The Project will provide increased safety through the elimination of at-grade crossings along the NCRR H-Line corridor. This Project is part of the Piedmont Improvement Prog�am (PIP). The PIP is an initiative by the NCDOT, NS, and the NCRR to improve passenger and freight railroad operations along the Piedmont Corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. The Piedmont Corridor consists of the Greensboro to Charlotte portion of the NS Washington, DC to Atlanta, mainline and the NCRR H-line that runs from Greensboro to Raleigh. The Project is also located along the alternative of the Southeast High Speed Rail (SEHSR) Corridor selected by the FRA and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in the Record of Decision (ROD) following the Tier I SEHSR Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)' in 2002. The SEHSR involves the development, implementation, and operation of high speed passenger rail service along the approximately 500-mile travel corridor from Washington, DC to Charlotte, NC. The Project area is comprised of three separate sub-project areas (see Figures 2, 3b, and 4a). The three sub-project areas are located along Old NC 10 between the Town of Hillsborough and the City of Durham in a part of the North Carolina region known as the Triangle. All three areas have the distinct advantage of being close to inajor transportation routes (I-85, I-40, US 70, NC 86, and NC 751) that provide quick connections to employment centers in Research Triangle Park (RTP), Durham, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough. Primary destinations such as places of employment, schools, churches, grocery stores, and other retail establishments for citizens near the three crossings are found in the City of Durham and the Town of Hillsborough. The Gordon Thomas Drive and Greenbriar Drive sub-project areas are in rural residential areas, while the Byrdsville Road sub-project area is in close proximity to Hillsborough where residential density is comparatively higher. The crossings at Gordon Thomas Drive and Greenbriar Drive are approximately one mile west of the Durham city limit and about seven miles from the city center. � Federal Railroad Administration. October 2002. Tier I Record of Decision for the Southeast High Speed Rail Program from Washington, DC to Charlotte, NC. http://www.sehsr.org/reports/RODFinal.pdf. 2.0 Procedural History NCDOT frst identified these crossings for possible closure based on the recommendations of the NCDOT Rail Division Private Crossing Safety Initiative (PCSI).� The PCSI Program is a subcomponent of the PIP that seeks to reduce the number of privately owned railroad crossings along the NCRR and the NS corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. The PCSI report was completed in October 2003 and supplemented in December 2009. The Project is also included in the NCDOT 2016-2025 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) as P-4405, as well as the Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Metropolitan Planning Organization's (DCHC MPO) 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan. The project was initiated by the NCDOT Rail Division with FRA as the Federal Lead Agency. Funding for the project was authorized under the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of (PRIIA) 2008, and appropriated through the American Recovet-y and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).3 PRIIA primarily focuses on improving service, operations, and facilities for intercity passenger rail and development of high speed rail corridors, including the SEHSR corridor. The potential impacts of the Project were analyzed in the Environmental Assessment (EA) that was approved and signed by NCDOT on May 6, 2015 and by FRA on May 26, 2015. NCDOT advertised a 15-day public comment period and provided the public with an opportuniry to request a public hearing but did not receive a request for a hearing. NCDOT did receive comments on the Project from 15 agencies and two members of the public, and responses to those comments are included in a later section of this FONSI. Right-of-way acquisition and construction are scheduled to begin in 2015. 3.0 Statement of Purpose and Need The purpose of the Project is to remove existing at-grade private railroad crossings. The PCSI Program recommended closing the Gordon Thomas Drive and Greenbriar Drive crossings because of poor geometric conditions and the availability of nearby alternative access. The PCSI Program recommended closing the Byrdsville Road crossing because of prior accidents and the potential far more collisions due to higher traffic volumes. Currently, this portion of the NCRR hosts five to ten freight trains and six passenger trains (three round trips) per day. The improvements associated with the PIP will facilitate the introduction of three daily Piedmont round trips and four daily SEHSR round trips. Future freight operations are expected to increase to approximately 15 trains per day. The maximum train speeds on this section of track are 55 miles per hour (mph) for freight trains and 79 mph for passenger trains. Maximum speeds may be reduced for localized conditions such as track curvature through the Gordon Thomas crossing. The Project is needed to reduce the potential for roadway vehicle/train collisions to occur at the crossings as rail traffic increases in the future. The Gordon Thomas Drive crossing is humped, lacks automatic warning signals, has limited sight distance, and has an estimated traffic volume of less than 100 vehicles per day. Additionally, the Gordon Thomas Drive crossing is located near the center of a two-mile passing siding on the NCRR H-Line. The removal of the crossing will allow the railroad to utilize the full length of the siding for holding or passing of trains without blocking traffic at the crossing. � NCDOT Rail Division. 2003. Private Crossing Safety Initiative Crossing Evaluations and Recommendations (Supplemental Report 2009). 3 The FRA grant, obligated as part of the High-Speed Intercity Passenger Rail Program is funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) (Pub. L. 111-5, February l 7, 2009). 2 The Greenbriar Drive crossing is slightly humped, lacks automatic warning signals, and has an estimated traffic volume of less than 100 vehicles per day. The Byrdsville Road crossing is slightly humped, is protected by automatic warning devices with lights and gates, has a history of crashes, and has an estimated traffic volume of 400 vehicles per day based on 2015 traffic counts. The Project will improve safety for rail passengers, train crews, and vehicles by eliminating the at-grade crossings and providing alternative access to nearby public roads with safer railroad crossing conditions. In 2013, there were 56 recorded highway-rail collisions resuliing in seven deaths and 29 injuries in ihe State of North Carolina. There are no records of accidents at the Gordon Thomas Drive and Greenbriar Drive crossings; however, the Byrdsville Road crossing has a record of four crashes between 1994 and 1999, with one fatality in the 1994 accident. According to the NCDOT, trespassing on railroad property and collisions at highway-rail grade crossings are the two leading causes of death in the entire railroad industry, far surpassing employee or passenger fatalities. The US Department of Transportation's 2004 Secretary's Action Plan for Highway-Rail Crossing Safety and Trespass Prevention identifies nine initiatives that are central to the effort to reduce the number of the rail-highway accidents. Among these initiatives is the effort to close unneeded at-grade crossings. The initiative is a continuation of the 1994 action plan which succeeded in a forty-three percent reduction in fatalities over the ten-year period from 1994 to 2004. The effort to close unneeded at-grade crossings is endorsed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and various state department of transportation. There is consensus among these organizations on the imperative need to close at-grade crossings in order to reduce fatalities and injuries. 4.0 Alternatives Considered All reasonable alternatives meeting the Project's purpose and need were explored during the Project development process. This process included the examination of optional alignments for Byrdsville Road and Greenbriar Drive roadway connections. Only one alignment was determined to be reasonable for Gordon Thomas Drive to connect with Paschall Drive. This alignment follows an existing path that is currently used as an informal alternative access route to Murphey School Road (SR 1714) when trains are queued at a NCRR H-Line siding. The proposed Gordon Thomas Drive alignment was determined to be the only reasonable alternative because it upgrades an existing road and path and avoids extensive construction on new location across adjacent properties. As required by NEPA, the EA examined the No Build alternative in addition to the Build Alternative. The EA identified the Build Alternative as the Preferred Alternative. Preferred Alternative — Under the Preferred Alternative, NCDOT will close all three at-grade crossings and provide access through alternate routes. The Project will reduce the potential far roadway vehicle/train collisions as rail traffic increases in the future, thereby improving safery for rail passengers, train crews, and vehicles in the unincorporated area of Orange County between the City of Durham and Town of Hillsborough. Improvements associated with these crossing closures will further the goals of the PIP by improving passenger and freight railroad operations along the Piedmont Carridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. In addition, ihe combined improvements will improve safety and operations along the SEHSR, which when complete will provide high-speed passenger rail service between Washington, DC and Charlotte, NC. K3 The Preferred Alternative consists of three sub-projects with separate sub-project areas as described below: • Gordon Thomas Drive will be closed and alternative access to four residences will be provided using Paschall Drive west of Gordon Thomas Drive (see Figure 2). From there, drivers will be able to access Old NC 10 via SR 1715 or SR 1714. The design of the new Paschall Drive roadway section will be 20 feet wide within a 50-foot right-of-way. • Greenbriar Drive will be closed and alternative access will be provided to connect Greenbriar Drive to Spruce Pine Trail in the Whispering Pines subdivision. A new roadway will be constructed along the Alternative 2 alignment at the northern end of Greenbriar Drive; approximately 950 feet north of the NCRR H-Line (see Figure 3b). The design of the new road will be 20 feet wide within a 50-foot right-of-way. • The Byrdsville Road crossing will also be closed and drivers west of the crossing will be rerouted to NC 86 to the west. NCDOT will construct a new roadway to connect Byrdsville Road to an unnamed existing road that joins NC 86 ai Walier Clark Drive (see Figure 4a). Jaspers Lane will be reconnected to this roadway. The design of the new roadway will be 20 feet wide within a right-of-way that varies between approximately 50 and 130 feet. No Build Alternative - Under the No Build Alternative, the at-grade crossings in all three sub-projects would remain in operation, and would experience an increase in accident potential due to future growth in freight and passenger train volumes. The No Build Alternaiive would not result in direct impacts io the natural environment or socioeconomic environment; however, it would not address the potential for roadway vehicle/train collisions under the current conditions and as rail traffic increases in the future. Alternatives Considered but Eliminated from Further Studv Other alternatives considered but eliminated from further study in the EA included the optional alignments in the Greenbriar Drive and Byrdsville Road sub-project areas. These alternatives are discussed below. Greenbriar Drive - For the Greenbriar Drive crossing closure, initially two alternative locations for the new road were considered (see Figure 3a). The first location, Alternative 1, was approximately 400 feet north of the railroad crossing and connected to Spruce Pine Trail approximately 450 feet north of the NCRR H-Line. Alternative 2 is at the northern end of Greenbriar Drive, approximately 950 feet north of the NCRR H-Line and connects to Spruce Pine Trail. As shown in Figure 3a, the proposed Alternative 1 alignment traveled between two homes to join with Spruce Pine Trail. A resident of the southernmost properiy indicated this alignment could be located within that property's septic field. Moving this alignment further to the north ar south to avoid the septic field would result in a residential relocation. Alternative 2 would not require the relocation of this residence; and therefore, was carried forward for evaluation in the EA and Alternative 1 was eliminated from consideration. Byrdsville Road — NCDOT considered three additional options to the Byrdsville Road alignment that were analyzed in the EA to try to reduce the potential for impacts to the rear of residential properties in the Joppa Oaks subdivision; however, NCDOT withdrew these options from consideration due to the potential for disproportionately severe impacts to environmental resources. The first conceptual alignment alternative began at Byrdsville Road, west of the NCRR rail crossing, traveled north approximately 1,400 feet along the railroad right-of-way and Stony Creek, and ended at Workman Road � (see Figure 4b). NCDOT eliminated this alignment based on potential impacts to Prime Farmland, a wetland, and substantial linear stream impacts. A second conceptual alignment extended from the existing Byrdsville Road toward Walter Clark Drive, turning south and then west along the perimeter of Duke Forest to NC 86 at Fletcher Road (see Figure 4b). NCDOT eliminated this alignment due to potential impacts to Duke Forest property. It would more than double the linear impact along the Duke Forest boundary when compared to the Preferred Alternative. It would introduce unofficial access poinis to ihe property and would interfere with ongoing research projects and Reseroe Officer Training Corps (R.O.T.C.) training activities. In addition, Duke Forest is concerned that the alignment would adversely affect two high quality streams used as reference streams for research. A third alignment oprion extended from the existing Byrdsville Road, crossed Walter Clark Drive, and crossed property owned by the Piedmont Electric Membership Corporation (Piedmont Electric) io access NC 86, connecting with a service parking lot. On August 20, 2013, NCDOT met with representatives from Piedmont Electric to discuss an ali�nment that traveled along the north side of the offices, connecting with its service parking lot. This parking lot is an important component of the utility company's emergency service. When storms damage power lines in the region, this parking lot is used as a staging area for up to 100 vehicles that are responsible for repairs. This alignment was removed from consideration because it would substantially impact the company's emergency response operations due to encroachment on Piedmont Electric's emergency response staging area. 5.0 Summary of Environmental Effects The analysis and discussion of the potential environmental impacts associated with the Greenbriar Drive, Gordon Thomas Drive, and Byrdsville Road crossing closures are located in Section 4.0 of the EA. The potential for environmenta] impacts is summarized for each resource category in Table 1 below. Table 1 identifies the study area resources where the EA identifies the potential for some, although not significant, impacts. Those study resource areas not impacted by the Project are not discussed here further.4 Table 1— Summar of Im acts — Preferred Alternative MITIGATION SUMMARY OF MEASURES AND BEST SECTION OF EA ADVERSE IMPACTS MANAGEMENT PRACTICES 3.1 Land Use Minor Impacts. The Project will not have a None Required. significant impact on local land use. There will be minor land use changes where new roadways are being proposed as land use in the sub- project areas will occur with the conversion of land to roadway and right-of-way use; however ' These resource areas include physiography, water resources, Bald and Golden Eagles, candidate endangered species and federal species of concern, essential fish habitat, various jurisdictional resources; parks, recreational facilities, Section 4(fj properties, and mineral resources.

The proposed improvements do not conflict with land use or development plans. 3.2 Farmlands No Impacts. While this Project is expected to None Required. impact soil suitable for farmland in the Gordon Thomas Drive and Byrdsville Road sub-project areas, there is no evidence of current or past farming activities in these areas; iherefore, despite the presence of farmland, the Project will not impact ongoing or foreseeable farming activities. 3.3 Social No Impacts. Closing the Gordon Thomas None Required. Environment and Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road Transportation railroad crossings will not affect community interaction ar hinder access to local businesses or public facilities. The Project will not adversely affect school bus routes. Byrdsville Mobile Home Park residents currently access a mailbox kiosk on the opposite side of the NCRR H-Line. Direct roadway access to the existing mailbox kiosk on Old NC 10 will not be available under the Build alternative; therefore, NCDOT will assist local authorities in relocating the mail boxes in a location that is convenient for Byrdsville Road residents. In addition, there will be no adverse community/neighborhood cohesion or stability impacts associated with this Project as described further in the EA. Closing the Gordon Thomas Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road railroad crossings will not prevent area residents from interacting with one another, nor will it hinder access to neighbors or frequent business destinations. The Project will have a positive impact on the Table 1— Summar of Im acts — Preferred Alternative MITIGATION SUMMARY OF MEASURES AND BEST SECTION OF EA ADVERSE IMPACTS MANAGEMENT PRACTICES transportation system by eliminating the crossings and facilitating safer travel along the highway and railroad corridor. In the Byrdsville Road and Greenbriar Drive sub-project areas, ihe only existing roadway access is via the railroad crossings. Constructing the proposed new routes will provide unimpeded access for residences and emergency services. NCDOT performed a traffic study for the Byrdsville Road sub-project and concluded that a southbound left turn lane from NC 86 to Walter Clark Drive is warranted. This turn lane will require an additiona150-foot wide easement to the east side of NC 86. Using posted speed limits along shortest routes, ideal conditions, with no delays caused by trafiic ar trains, NCDOT concluded no impacts to travel times for emergency response vehicles are anticipated. 3.4 Right-of-way and Minor Impacts.

NCDOT conducted outreach with potentially impacted residents and the property owner. Based on the minor impacts and results of outreach, NCDOT and FRA determined the Project will not disproportionately impact this or any other minority or low-income community. 3.6 Air Quality No Impacts. The FRA and NCDOT have None Required. determined the Project complies with the general conformity rules in 40 CFR 93.153(b).

NCDOT and FRA have determined that project actions May Affect — but are Not Likely to Adversely Affect the Dwarf-wedge mussel. The US Fish and Wildlife Service concurred with this determination on September 12, 2014 (see Appendix B). 3.16.1 Clean Waters Minor Impacts.

Raleigh, NC. https://connect.ncdot.govhesources/hydro/Guidelines%20far%20Drainage%20Study%20Documents /Best%20Management%20Practices%20for%20Protection%20of%20Surface%20 Waters.pdf �: and the FRA that the Project will not have a significant impact upon the human or natural environment and that the Project is not controversial from an environmental standpoint. No significant impacts to natural, ecological, cultural, social, economic, or aesthetic resources are expected. For all right-of-way acquisition during final design, mitigation will be conducted in accordance with federal and siate regulations; however, NCDOT does not anticipate that ihe Project will result in residential relocations. There will be no community/neighborhood cohesion or stability impacts, and no negative impacts to economic resources are anticipated. The Project will not conflict with localland use plans, and it is not expected to alter land uses in or near the sub-project areas. Impacts to terrestrial resources will be minimized where possible by improving existing roadbeds and incorporating previously disturbed or maintained areas. The proposed Greenbriar Drive alignment crosses an unnamed tributary that is not a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regulated stream. It is within the backwater of a FEMA regulated stream, but it does not affect the floodway elevations. The NCDOT Hydraulics Unit will coordinate with the NC Floodplain Mapping Program (FMP), to determine the extent of anticipated impacts and mitigation measures to address impacts. Impacts to jurisdictional wetlands are anticipated along the Greenbriar Drive alignment. Project-related stream impacts are also anticipated in the Byrdsville Road and Greenbriar Drive sub-project areas. If compensatory mitigation is required and on-site mitigation is not feasible, mitigation may be provided by DENR Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP). The Project will require the relocation of existing underground and overhead utilities with short-term interruptions to service during construction; however, overall impacts to public utilities are anticipated to be low. NCDOT's Utilities Coardination Unit will coordinate directly with the owners of the affected utilities in the sub-project areas to minimize impacts. The Project will not induce growth or affect overall water quality, will not give new exposure to properties, and will not change land use ar influence development. The addition of the Project to the current development trend will not increase cumulative impacts significantly when compared to the impacts of other past, present, and future actions. FRA finds that the impacts of the Preferred Alternative, as assessed in the Proposed Private Closures with the NCRR/NS railroad at Gordon Thomas Drive (TIP No. P-4405I), Greenbriar Drive (TIP No. P-4405�, and Byrdsville Road (TIP No. P-4405K) EA, and this FONSI satisfy the requirements of FRA's Procedures of Considering Environmental Impacts, and that the Project will not have a significant impact on the quality of the human or natural environment. NCDOT shall implement all mitigation measures and follow BMPs outlined above.

Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to close three private at- grade railroad crossings with the North Carolina Railroad (NCRR)/Norfolk Southern Railway (NS) in Orange County at Gordon Thomas Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road. The project will improve safety through the elimination of at-grade crossings along the NCRR H-Line corridor. This project is part of the Piedmont Improvement Program (PIP). The PIP is an initiative by the NCDOT, NS, and the NCRR to improve passenger and freight railroad operations along the Piedmont Corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. The three crossings are also part of the Private Crossing Safety Initiative (PCSI) Program that seeks to reduce the number of privately owned railroad crossings along the Piedmont Corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. The closure of the Gordon Thomas Drive railroad crossing will eliminate the eastern access for residences to Old NC 10 (SR 1710). The project will provide alternate access using existing Paschall Drive west of Gordon Thomas Drive. From there, drivers will have access to Old NC 10 (SR 1710) via Dove Creek Road (SR 1715) or Murphey School Road (SR 1714). The closure of the Greenbriar Drive railroad crossing will eliminate the access for residences to Old NC 10. The project will provide alternate access to Old NC 10 by constructing a new road connecting Greenbriar Drive to Spruce Pine Trail in the Whispering Pines subdivision. The closure of the Byrdsville Road railroad crossing will eliminate the access for residences in and near the Byrdsville Mobile Home Park to Old NC 10. The project will provide alternate access by extending Byrdsville Road westward to connect to Walter Clark Drive. From Walter Clark Drive, the primary access to the Byrdsville Mobile Home Park will be rerouted to NC 86, which connects with Old NC 10. Additional right-of-way will be required for the project. Right-of-way acquisition is scheduled to begin in summer 2015 with construction scheduled to begin in late 2015. In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the NCDOT has prepared a Federal Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed project. The EA is a federally required environmental document that describes the need for the project and evaluates the project's concept for potential social, economic, and environmental effects. The EA and preliminary plans are available for public review at the following locations: ■ NCDOT 7t" Division, 15t District Office, 127 East Crescent Square Dr., Graham ■ Orange County, Planning and Inspections, West Campus Office Building, 131 West Margaret Lane, Hillsborough. The EA will also be available for download and viewing on the NCDOT's website at the following link: http://www.ncdot.�ov/proiects/publicmeetin�s/ (In the Search box, type "P-44051, P-4405J, P-4405K") No public hearing is currently scheduled for this project.

These include: Gardon Thomas Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road. The elimination of these crosszngs will substantially improve vehicular and rail safety as well as improve the efficiency of freight operations in the Piedmont Corridor and the proposed SEHPR pro�ect. The private crossings are characterized by poar geometric conditions, lack of signalization, and the availability of nearby access options. Alternatives Considered Section 2.0 of the EA provides detailed discussions concerning alternatives, including tk�e no-build alternative. Gordon Tk�omas Drive and Greenbriar Drive both had one alternative while the Byrdsville Road crossing had four preliminary alternatives that were evaluated and ranked based on how well they met the purpose and need and their respective environmental constraints. Three options were studied in addition to tk�e preferred Byrdsville Road alignment in an effort to decrease the potential for impacts to the Joppa Oaks subdivision, Tk�ese three options, however, would result in impacts to Prime Farmland, wetlands, streams, and the Duke Forest (including high quality streams used as reference streams for research); additionally, substantial impacts to Piedinont Electric's emergency response operations would occur as their staging area would be eiimii�ated, � Human Resources Impacts The �ro�osed �roject is not expected to impact any residences ar businesses (i.e., no relocations). There are no Environmental Justice impacts, Noise and vibration impacts are anticipated to be of no impact. No §4(�} or 6(fl properties are impacted by this project. Natural Resources Tm acts The proposed project is located within a rural area. Farmland impacts are not anticipated.

After a review of the subject EA, the US Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, Raleigh Regulatory Field Office (Cor}�s) offers the following comments: 1} Generally, the Corps notes that avoidance and m;,,;mization of impacts to waters of the US to the maa�imum extent practicable is required per section 404 of the Ciean Water Act. As such, and #o avoid future project delay, NCDOT is encouraged to design the praject accordingiy and reduce the wetland and stream impacts proposed as project planning proceeds. 2) Page xiv-Table ES 1, Page 42-section 3.16.2: the document states that a Nationwide Permit (NWP) 23 will likely be applicable. However, the environmental documen.t produced is an EA ra.thex than a Categorical Exclusion (CE). Since NWP 23 is used for approved Categorical Exclusions, NWP 14 is likely more appropriate for the impacts to waters of the US proposed. 3} Page 43-section 3.16.7: the dacument states that on-site stream mitigation options may be pursued, with mifiagating through the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP}, now called the NC Divisian of Mitigation Services (NCDMS), as a seconda.ry option. Note that compensatory mitigatian rnust be provided in accordance with 33 CFR 332, the EPA Mitigation Rule, which lists a standard mitigation hierarchy. As such, any on-site mitigation proposed must clearly state why the proposal will provide superior replacement of aquatic function than either a mitigation bank (if availabie) or an in-lieu fee program (i.e. NCDMS).

The second sentence of the "No Impact" As described in Section 3.26 of the EA (page 47), statement states that "The addition of the the cumulative impact is the incremental impact of proposed Project to the current development an action added to other past, present, and trend will not increase cumulative impacts reasonably foreseeable future actions. The Project significantly when compared to the impacts of is limited in scope, does not induce growth or other past, present, and future actions." That's development, does not change the land use, is in an very vague. area with little development activity, and does not si�nificantly affect fragile natural resources. For these reasons, NCDOT and FRA determined the Project will not significantly increase cumulative impacts. 11.

Dave Subject: Orange County Rail Crossing Closures Date: Friday, July 17, 2015 11:25:49 AM Chief Hayes and Chief Cabe, Thank you for taking time this morning to discuss your concerns regarding the rail crossing closure projects at Gordon Thomas Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road. Below is a summary of the topics covered during the conference call. Common Concerns for All Three Crossinas • Fire department officials request roadway designs consider allowing two fire trucks to pass each other in curves. In some cases water has to be brought to the scene by multiple trucks, causing a scenario where one truck is arriving on the scene while another is leaving to get more water. A delay in this operation could result in firefighters running out of water. A variety of other cases frequently involve large fire trucks going to and coming from the scene. • If curves cannot be wide enough to accommodate two fire trucks at once, there needs to be enough room on both ends of the curve for one truck to safely pull over while the other passes. This area should be maintained and stable enough so that trucks do not get stuck during inclement weather. Recently, fire trucks have gotten stuck — hindering firefighting operations, and resulting in significant property damage and cost to pull the trucks out. Gordon Thomas Road and Greenbriar Drive Concerns — Chief Keith Hayes, Eno Fire Department • The proposed designs will not significantly affect travel times to properties in these two project areas. • The cul-de-sacs should be designed large enough for fire trucks to turn around. �rdsville Road Concerns — Chief Jeff Cabe, Orange Rural Fire Department • The name of the proposed roadway should have a different name than Walter Clark Drive. Having two roads on each side of NC 86 with the same name will create confusion with emergency dispatchers and responders. • The sharp curves in the proposed design could increase response times under the circumstances discussed above. • Response times to the Byrdsville Road area average over five minutes. • Traffic congestion near the I-85/ NC 86 interchange hinders response times to the project area. The comments above will be noted and documented for consideration as these projects progress. Best regards, Clay Clay D. Oliver, P.E.

Projects are subject to the Farmland Protection Poliry Act (FPPA) requirements if they irreversibly convert farmland, either directly or indirectly, to a nonagricultural use and are completed or funded by a Federal agenry. For the purpose of FPPA, farmland includes prime farmland, unique farmland, and land of statewide or local importance. Farmland subject to FT'PA does not have to be currendy in crops. It can be forest land, pastureland, cropland, or other land. Farmland does not include land previously converted to urban development or water storage. Urban development is land that has been identified as urbanized area on the Census Bureau Map or as urban-built-up on the USDA Important Farmland Maps. The area in question meets one or more of the above criteria for Farmland. Enclosed is the Farmland Conversion Impact Rating form (AD1006 / NRCS-CPA-106) with PARTS II, IV and V completed by NRCS. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, ' �L ��%%?�G Kristin L. May � Resource Soil Scientist CK� Brent Bogue, District Conservationist, NRCS, Hillsborough Marc L.

North Carolina Department of Transportation Rail Division 1553 Mail Service Center Rala�gr�, North Carolina 2'r�99�=:55�� Dear Mr. White: This letter is ir� response to your letter of September 9, 201� which provided the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Ser�ice} wath the biological conclusion of the North Carolina Department of Transportation that t�e closure of three private rail crossings and associated work in Orange County {TIP Nas. P-4405I, P-��OSJ and P-�k405I�} may affect, but are not likely to adversely affect the federally endangered dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon}. These comments are provided in accordance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act {ESA} of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543}. According ta information provided, a mussel survey was conducted in Stoney Creek wit�in t4�e praject study area on January 9, 2013. No dwarf wedgemussels were observed. Only 17 specimens of the comanon eastern elliptia (Elliptio compla�ata) were observed, thus indicating poor mussel diversity. Based an the mussel survey results and other a�ailable informatian, t�e Service concurs with your conclusian that the proposed project miay affect, but is not lik(1){t} adversely affect the dwarf wedgemussel. We believe that the requirements of Section 7 a 2 af the ESA have been satisfied. We remind you that obligations under Section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified aciion that ri�ay affect listed species or Critical habitat in a manner not previously considered in this review; (2) this action is subsequently modi�ed in a manner that was not considered in this review; or (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by t4iis identified action. Tl�e Service appreciates the opportunity to review this pro�ect. If you have any questions regarding our response, please contact Mr. Gary Jordan at {919) SSb-4520 (Ext. 32). ` Sincerely, � � , �'+- Pete Benjamiin ' Field Supervisor Electronic copy: David �ailey, USACE, Wake Forest, NC Travis Wijson, NCWRC, Creedmoor, NC APPENDIX C PUBLIC CORRESPONDENCE Kerr, Will From: Nancy Dixon <heavenslight@embarqmail.com> Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2015 7:23 PM To: Kerr, Will Cc: Reep, Mark; Kerr, William; 'Bridges, James F'; 'havener, daniel';jmpullen@ncdot.gov; jarobbins@ncdot.gov; pdwilsonl@ncdot.gov Subject: RE: P-4405IJK Notice of Opportunity for Public Hearing Thank you for keeping me in the loop.

The N.C. Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to close three private at-grade railroad crossings with the North Carolina Railroad (NCRR)/Norfolk Southern Railway (NS) in Orange County at Gordon Thomas Drive, Greenbriar Drive, and Byrdsville Road. The project will improve safety through the elimination of at-grade crossings along the NCRR H-Line corridor. This project is part of the Piedmont Improvement Program (PIP). The PIP is an initiative by the NCDOT, NS, and the NCRR to improve passenger and freight railroad operations along the Piedmont Corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. The three crossings are also part of the Private Crossing Safety Initiative (PCSI) Program that seeks to reduce the number of privately owned railroad crossings along the Piedmont Corridor from Raleigh to Charlotte. In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the NCDOT has prepared a Federal Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed project. The EA is a federally required environmental document that describes the need for the project and evaluates the project's concept for potential social, economic, and environmental effects. 1Ri17 The EA and preliminary plans are available for public review at the following locations: ■ NCDOT 7t" Division, 15t District Office, 127 East Crescent Square Dr., Graham ■ Orange County, Planning and Inspections, West Campus Office Building, 131 West Margaret Lane, Hillsborough The EA will also be available for download and viewing on the NCDOT's website at the following http://www.ncdot.gov/proiects/publicmeetin�s/ (In the Search box, type "P-44051, P-4405J, P-4405K") No public hearing is currently scheduled for this project. Requests to hold a public hearing on this project should be sent by registered letter to Ms. Diane Wilson, Senior Public Involvement Officer, 1598 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699- i 1598, phone (919) 707-6073, or email pdwilsonl@ncdot.�ov.

As we discussed, the current plans propose the ditches near your property to be lined with a Permanent Soil Reinforced Matting (PSRM) which would allow grass to grow in the ditches. Rip rap is proposed at the pipe or culvert outfalls. I have attached a copy of the latest preliminary plan sheet showing this proposal in your area. Once right of way acquisition begins in the coming months, an agent will be in contact with you from that point forward. If you need additional information, please let us know.
