Hello All,
Please see the attached Cover letter, PCN and supporting documents for the replacement of a pipe on Greensboro
Street in Carrboro, Orange County, NC. Due to the size of the documents, I will likely split into two or more e-mails. Dave
Bailey, I will also send you a hard copy. Please call me if you have any questions. [phone]

Wanted to give you some language on the need for this project/impact and to also run something by you.
The outlet stream channel is steep. From the outlet of the existing 48" to the inlet of existing 8'x8' box culvert the drop
is approx. 7.5' (approx. 8% slope). This happens mainly in a series of 2 steep drops, shown in the attached photo. My
recommendation is to set our new outlet invert 1' or 2' below the toe of the first drop. This will require some channel
excavation but will reduce scour potential at the outlet down to the box culvert. Also recommend armoring some of the
channel bed at the outlet with Class II rip rap. We will be impacting this reach of stream regardless and plan to rip rap
banks with Class II to west of the box culvert inlet.
As far as need/scope of project:
The existing storm drain system under South Greensboro Street is significantly undersized. The existing
offsite/upstream system, that approaches from the East, is even smaller. This site has been an abandoned lot for a
number of years. The undersized system results in overtopping of South Greensboro Street as recent as 2013. The
Department has records beginning in the mid 1980's of this issue and has acknowledged improvements are
needed. However, until the system upstream and outside of R/W was upsized any improvement within R/W would
result in negligible benefit and overtopping of the road would still be anticipated for relative storm events. In 2013 the
Hydraulics Unit was again requested to reinvestigate the site. Development of the site was now proposed and
improvements to the offsite drainage system was anticipated. Coordinating with the offsite development we are now
proposing improvements in R/W. The improvements will extend from just East of South Greensboro Street to the outlet
channel just North of the South Greensboro Street and NC 54 westbound ramp. Along with the system improvements
we are also proposing rip rap bank stabilization along the outlet channel.
Let me know if you need additional info. Also attached sketch of proposed outlet.
Thanks
Galen

Project Number- 7B.206814.12
To Whom It May Concern:

Cavernor
NICHOLASJ.TENNYSON
Secretary
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to improve the
outlet channel of an existing storm drain system by placing riprap along the banks for
bank stabilization and placing Class II riprap in the stream for energy dissipation.
Currently the azea connects to a severely undersized drainage system and is prone to
flooding during high flow events. The project is located at South Greensboro Street in
Carrboro adjacent to the on ramp onto NC 54. The proposed work is necessary in order
to reduce future maintenance and to increase traffic and public safety. This activity will
result in permanent impacts to an UT to Morgan Creek and temporary impacts to the
stream's buffer. The NCDOT anticipates that the activity will be authorized under
Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 and DWR General Certification #3820 This application is
intended as a request for cvritten authorization from the US Army Corps of Engineers
far the Nationwide 14. This package is also being forwarded to the NC Division of
Water Quality for authorization as prescribed under General Water Quality Certification
#3820. No road widening or additional travel lanes are proposed. The following
information is being provided to satisfy conditions of the Nationwide Permit and General
Water Quality Cert�cation.
A memo from a NCDOT hydraulics engineer is attached to further explain the purpose,
need and scope of the proposed project.

RCP = reinforced concrete pipe; CMP = Corrugated metal pipe; CMPA = Corrugated metal pipe arch; EIC =
Erosion control. *A less intrusive dewatering device may be used in lieu of the one proposed.
MINIMIZATION INFORMATION
Impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices
for the protection of surface waters and wetlands, restrictions against the staging
of equipment in or adjacent to waters of the US, and coordination (ittcluding a
pre-constructiou meetiag) with the Division Environmental Officer.
MITIGATION INFORMATION
Stream mitigation is not anticipated, as the impacts to the individuat stream will
not exceed 160 feet. Wetland mitigation is not anticipated, as wetland impacts do
not exceed 0.10 acres aad do not occur in a unique natural wetland.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
