No: B-5760 45716.1.1 Federal Permit Required? County: Richmond Document: Attachment G Funding: � State ❑ Federal � Yes ❑ No Permit Type: nwp3 Project Description: NCDOT proposes to replace Bridge No. 0079 on SR 1424 (Jones Spring Church Road) over Naked Creek in Richmond County. While state-funded, a federal permit is required from the USACE, therefore, Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act applies. This is a Low Impact Division project, and, as such, has a minimal footprint, little new impacts, and, importantly, an offsite detour. Design was available at the time of review and establishes a clear Area of Potential Effects (APE) that can be described as less than 300 feet in length and generally conforming to the existing transportation facility footprint in the 60 ft ROW. A small amount of fill wark may lay outside of the existing ROW close to the bridge. For purposes of this review, the APE width is a maximum of 100 feet in close proximity to the crossing. The majority of the APE may be considered disturbed by the existing roadway, bridge and associated soil disruption, ar otherwise having wet soils. For this improvement to an existing facility, the submitter provided detailed design mapping which will be attached to this form. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: Specific design mapping was available and compared to aerial and topgraphic mapping. The project area along SR 1424 passes through a largely undeveloped, wooded landscape where Naked Creek is crossed by Bridge 0079. The only soil type present is Johnston mucky loam, a low, frequently flooded soil that is often considered as having a low probability for archaeological sites due to wetness. Virtual drive by viewing was accomplished using Google Maps. No cemeteries were noted during the virtual viewing or on the USGS mapping at the project location. The entire project falls within a narrow swamp designation on the USGS map (Norman), which generally have a poor probability for most archaeological site types. The Office of State Archaeology was visited to review archaeological mapping and to reference any known archaeological surveys. An environmental review (ER 04-3152) traverses Bridge 0079 as part of coverage on SR 1424 and also includes a long section of SR 1458. No documentation could be found for what that project involved, however, it was likely for a utility and apparently resulted in no archaeological surveys being conducted. There are no recorded archaeological sites near the project area. For this undertaking, the proposed bridge replacement of the existing transportation facility Bridge No. 0079, little new soil disturbance will occur with the exception of fill wark and possible easements beside the bridge. The area is shown as a narrow portion of swamp on USGS mapping. As much of the existing "No ARCHAEOLOGY SURVEYREQUIRED "form for the Amended Minor Transportation Projects as Qualifaed in the 2015 Programmatic AgreeuaenE. 1 of 4 Project Tracking No.: 15-11-0015 APE has been modified for the current roadway, bridge, drainage and utilities, expectations are low for encountering new archaeological sites, especially any that may be intact and significant. As a result of this review, we conclude that the likelihood of encountering intact, NRHP-eligible resources are slim based on the limited new footprint of the undertaking at the same preexisting location, and previous bridge construction disturbances. The project should be considered compliant with Section 106. No archaeological survey is recommended for this undertaking as currently proposed. Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicting that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE: The scale and nature of the project is limited to replacement of an existing bridge with a new structure at the same location. An offsite detour will be used. The APE of the project overlays the current transportation facility and is heavily disturbed by the original roadway and bridge construction. New impacts will be limited to work adjacent to the bridge. Review of background archaeological information, examination of mapping and virlual drive-by suggests low probability for the presence of significant, intact archaeological resources within the APE. The APE contains frequently flooded soils. Based on the minimal changes to the footprint of construction, wetness and the degree of existing disturbances, it is unlikely that intact, signiiicant, NRHP-eligible archaeological resources would be encountered or impacted by the project. No archaeological survey is recommended. Therefore, this federally permitted undertaking should be considered compliant with Section 106.
