The existing single-span, 30' L X 28' W, timber deck on I-beams, supported by timber caps timber piles with timber bullcheads is structurally deficient and will be replaced with a new 60' L X 30' W, single span, cored slab bridge at the same location. An off-site detour will be urilized during construction. There are wetlands located near the project area, however, they will not be disturbed. This project proposes only 43 linear feet of permanent sh�eain impacts associated with �Nothing Compares�.` StateofNorlhCarolina � DepartmrntofTransportation � DivisionofHighways,Division70�ce 1584 Yanceyville SCree1, Greensboro, NC 27405� P.

Please note that there is also a perennial UT (feature SB) that enters the project site from the northwest; there are no impacts proposed to feature SB. There are no deck drains proposed on this bridge. The project drainage system consists of an inlet pipe system on the northeast side. Discharge from this pipe outlet will be attenuated on a riprap pad located outside the ripaiian buffer areas and will be diffused by existing topographic conditions before flowing to the riparian buffer. The ditches in the southeast and southwest quadrants will be retained. There are is a utility relocation proposed with this bridge replacement and the plans are included. One aerial Duke facility will be temporarily moved while the bridge replacement is constructed; the buffer impacts are accounted for within this application. Proposed Riparian Buffer impacts include 2,784 square feet in Zone 1 and 1,632 square feet in Zone 2 to accommodate the bridge. On June 28, 2016, Bob Lepsic with Arcadis surveyed far the Small whorled pogonia within the project boundaries. There were no specimens found, however potential habitat was present; further, there are no occurrences of this species with 1.0 mile per NCNHP. Therefore, the Biological Conclusion for Small whorled pogonia is No Effect; Habitat Present. The Bald Eagle is protected in every county in North Carolina under the Bald and Gold Eagle Protection Act; however, no suitable feeding/water source is located within one mile of the project study area to support Bald Eagle habitat. Also, Mr. Gary Jordan (iJSFWS) recently released the Programmatic Conference Opinion (PCO) for the recently listed Northern Long Eared Bat (NLEB). This opinion, states in part, that "... it is the Service's conference opinion that NCDOT activities in eastern North Carolina (Divisions 1-8), as proposed, are not likely to jeopardize the conti�aued existence of the NLEB.
