Subject: Bridge #71 Replacement, SR 1338 (St. Clair Road), Alexander County
This project was originally submitted as a non -notifying NW 3 due to consultant design which did not included riprap
under the bridge; however, the contractor working on the project and the Division 12 Bridge Engineer have requested
that riprap be placed under the bridge and tied into the riprap ditchlines. This will require an additional 50 feet of riprap
impacts, which is above the DWR GC#3883 threshold for non -notifying.
Please note that the project has been let and the contractor is mobilizing equipment to begin work on the project. It
would be appreciated if this application could be expedited.
Thank you

The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to replace an existing 40.6 foot long x 20 foot wide timber
deck bridge with a 70 -ft long x 20 ft wide concrete bridge on SR 1338, St. Clair Road in Alexander
County. Approximately 5 feet of riprap slope protection will be used at the end of the new ditchlines in all four
quadrants of the project. Therefore, there will be a total of 20 feet of permanent riprap impacts Grassy Creek, which is
classified as Class C waters by the Division of Water Resources. The project will not impact any federally listed T & E
species (survey conducted 6/25/15, bat habitat assessment form for bridge and surrounding trees completed February
2015; available upon request) or historical structures (NCDOT Cultural Resources Review- Internal Tracking No. 13-08-
0007). No wetlands or high quality waters will be impacted by this project.

SUBJECT: Bridge #71 Replacement on SR 1338 (St. Clair Road), Alexander County
Dear Mr. Kichefski:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation requests authorization to replace an existing
40.6 -foot long x 20 -foot wide timber deck bridge with a 70 -ft long x 20 -ft wide concrete bridge on
SR 1338 (St. Clair Road) in Alexander County. NCDOT proposes to place a total of 70 feet of
riprap bank stabilization under Bridge 471. Therefore, there will be a total of 70 -feet of permanent
riprap impacts to Grassy Creek, which is classified as Class C waters by the Division of Water
Resources.
The Division 12 Environmental Office conducted a threatened/endangered species survey on SR
1338 (St. Clair Road) on June 25, 2015. The federally listed species for Alexander County (USFWS
listed dated July 24, 2015) include the dwarf -flowered heartleaf (Hexastylis nanii lora)- Threatened;
the bog turtle (Clemmys muhlenbergii)- Threatened due to similarity of Appearance (T/SA); and
the Northern Long Eared Bat (Myotic septentrionalis)- Threatened. The Natural Heritage Program
records document the nearest dwarf -flowered heartleaf location approximately 11.5 miles southeast
of the proposed project. The heartleaf is usually found on dry to moist ravine slopes (usually north
facing and of the oak -hickory -pine forest type) and in boggy areas near springheads. There is no
potential habitat within the proposed project area and no species were observed. There will be "No
Effect' on the Hexastylis nanii lora species for this project. The Natural Heritage Program records
document the bog turtle location approximately 4 miles southeast of the proposed project. Bog
turtles are typically found in bogs, marshes, and wet pastures. There is no suitable habitat located
within the project footprint. T/SA species are not subject to Section 7 consultation; however, no
habitat existed at the project and no species were observed; no impact on this species is anticipated.
The Natural Heritage Program records document the nearest Northern Long Eared Bat location
approximately 20 miles northwest of the proposed project area. During summer, northern long-
eared bats roost singly or in colonies underneath bark, in cavities, or in crevices of both live and
dead trees. They may also roost in cooler places, like caves and mines. Tree species may be used
based on suitability to retain bark or provide cavities or crevices. It has also been found, rarely,
roosting in structures like barns and sheds. Northern long-eared bats spend winter hibernating in
humid caves and mines. Minimal roadside tree clearing will be done as part of these pipe
replacements project. There are no abandoned structures, barns or shed in close vicinity and the
closest underground mine — Dagenhart mine (per NET database) is 7.2 miles southeast of the
project area.

There are currently no known hibernaculum or maternity roost trees in Division 12 counties for
NLEB; therefore, the minor tree clearing associated with this DOT project would be exempted from
incidental take under the 4d rule. Attached is the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) NLEB
4(d) Rule streamlined consultation form. Per guidance from USFWS personnel, concurrence is
granted by citing the following website and a 30 day response period is waived.
http:/hvww.fws.gov/asheville/htmis/project review/NLEB_in WNC.html
There are no sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places are located in the vicinity of
the project and the project has been reviewed and cleared by cultural resources staff (NCDOT
Cultural Resources Review — Internal Tracking No. 13-08-0007).
The project area is not located within /2 mile of any critical watershed area nor is SR 1338 a rural
or urban arterial; therefore, hazardous spill basins are not required. Enclosed is the hazardous spill
basin checklist.
I have enclosed a pre -construction notification for a NW#3, sketches of planned activities and
location maps relative to the project.
Project information for the 401 Automated Payment Procedure is as follows:
• Work order number: 150475-55120005-17BP.12.R.103-3372
• TIP#: NA
• Project Category: $240.00 Fee
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me at (704) 480-9044. Thank you for your

Northern Long -Eared Bat 4(d) Rule Streamlined Consultation Form
Federal agencies should use this form for the optional streamlined consultation framework for the northern long-
eared bat (NLEB). This framework allows federal agencies to rely upon the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's
(USFWS) January 5, 2016, intra -Service Programmatic Biological Opinion (BO) on the final 4(d) rale forthe
NLEB for section 7(a)(2) compliance by: (1) notifying the USFWS that an action agency will use the streamlined
framework; (2) describing the project with sufficient detail to support the required determination; and (3) enabling
the USFWS to track effects and determine if reinitiation of consultation is required per 50 CFR 402.16.
This form is not necessary if an agency determines that a proposed action will have no effect to the NLEB or if
the USFWS has concurred in writing with an agency's determination that a proposed action may affect, but is not
likely to adversely affect the NLEB (i.e., the standard informal consultation process). Actions that may cause
prohibited incidental take require separate formal consultation. Providing this information does not address
section 7(a)(2) compliance for any other listed species.
Information to Determine 4(d) Rule Compliance:
YES NO
1. Does the project occur wholly outside of the WNS Zone'?
❑
2. Have you contacted the appropriate agency2 to determine if your project is near
0
❑
known hibemacula or maternity roost trees?
3. Could the project disturb hibernating NLEBs in a known hibernaculum?
❑
4. Could the project alter the entrance or interior environment of a known
❑
hibemaculum?
5. Does the project remove any trees within 0.25 miles of a known hibernaculum at
❑
any time of ear?
6. Would the project cut or destroy known occupied maternity roost trees, or any
❑
EJ
other trees within a 150 -foot radius from the maternity roost tree from June 1
through July 31.
You are eligible to use this form if you have answered yes to question #1 or yes to question #2 and no to
questions 3, 4, 5 and 6. The remainder of the form will be used by the USFW S to track our assumptions in the
BO.

presume that its determination is informed by the best available information and that its project
responsibilities under 7(a)(2) with respect to the NLEB are fulfilled through the USFWS January 5,
2016, Programmatic BO. The action agency will update this determination annually for multi-year
activities,
