This project was issued a 401 Water Quality Certification and Authorization Certificate per the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Protection Rules on August 11, 2015. The project team recently received comments from Norfolk Southern Railway regarding the proposed extension rail line off their existing main line to the terminal rail yard. Norfolk Southern requested a track realignment which requires a slight modification in the stream and wetland impact areas. Additional retaining walls have been incorporated to minimize impacts. This redesign ultimately results in a 0.0033 acre reduction of permanent impacts, from 0.4962 to 0.4929 acres. Based on correspondence with Ms. Chem Smith, due to the reduction of the total permanent impact area a filing fee is not required with this submittal.
