Nationwide Permit #3 Pre-Conshuction Notification
Replace Bridge 250052 over South River
Cumberland County, North Cazolina
NCDOT TIP B-5691
JAMESH.TROGDON,III
SECRETARY
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to replace Bridge
No. 250052 over South river on SR 1006 (Maxwell Road) in Cumberland County. The
structure is to be replaced by a bridge on its current location. The existing structure is
211 foot long (1 @ 35"4”, 4@ 35', 1@ 35'4") with steel planks and I-beams with
wooden vertical abuhnents. The proposed bridge is a 227 foot long 21" cored slab bridge
(1 @ 58' 10.5", 1@50'0", 1@ 60'0", 1@ 58' 10.5") with 4'0" bent caps and spill trough
abuhnents. An off-site detour is proposed. No deck drains are proposed. Two
stormwater outfalls are proposed with a Rip Rap pad to dissipate the energy at the end of
the outfall.
Construction of this project will require impacts to waters of the United States in the
Cape Fear River Basin. The existing bridge crosses South River, a Class C;Sw water.
Please find attached a Pre-Construction Notification (PCN), Stormwater Management
Plan, and Permit Drawings. A US Army Corps of Engineers Preliminary Jurisdictional
Determination was obtained May 4, 2016 (SAW-2016-00756). Proposed impacts to
wetlands include <0.01 acre (400 sq ft) of wetland fill, 0.01 acre of wetland excavation,
0.10 acre of Hand Clearing with 7 LF of permanent stream impacts.

D. ImpactJustification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in desig�ing project.
Best management practices (BMPs) and appropriate erosion and sedimeMation controls will be installed and maintained during construction activities
to allow for the least adverse effect on the stream channel as well as wetlands within the project area. The new structure will remain on the existing
alignment to retluce impacts.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Removal of the existing sWcture as well as construction of the new bridge will take place from uplands which will minimize impacts. Hand clearing will
also be pedormed within the wetlands.
