Subject:Duplin 2281 Sediment Removal PCN Application
Attachments:Duplin I-40 NIP 2281 PCN packet_signed.pdf
Attached is a PCN application for sediment removal at Duplin NIP 2281 which is a 6 x 5.4
ft. RCBC located on I-40 EBL, 1.1 mile W of NC 903. The shoulder and slope failed on the
outlet end of the culvert due to concentrate stormwater runoff and the sediment
deposited in an unnamed tributary to Maxwell Creek and is blocking about 90% of the
culvert outlet. DOT is proposing to excavate the sediment to 1 ft. above the culvert
floor to restore the natural streambed grade.

This is a courtesy copy to DWR to complete the work under WQC 4085. There is a
beaver dam about 50 ft. downstream of the culvert, so flow is absent so we are not
proposing to dewater but will install a turbidity curtain just downstream of the sediment
during excavation which satisfies Condition 9 of WQC 4085. The beaver dam will be
breached after the in-water work has been completed and BMAP has trapped the
beavers.

This project does require written approval from the Corps per paragraph B of
Nationwide 3.

This submittal was not completed under the new electronic format because we have
been notified by the Corps that the PCN will be revised tomorrow and information in the
current database will be lost.

If you have any question or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to
contact me.

Thanks!

3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The site consist of an existing 4 lane interstate with 250 ft right of way. There is an exisitng 6 ft x 5.4 ft x 204 ft RCBC at
this location that serves as conveyance for a UT to Maxwell Creek. Land use is predominately forested at this location.

3i. Comments: Excavation is a beneficial impact to restore flow. Excavation grade will be set 1 ft. above culvert floor. A
beaver dam is downstream of project and limiting flow. Dewatering is not proposed due to absence of flow, therefore there
are no temporary impacts proposed. A turbidity curtain will deployed below excavation to contained turbidity during
excavation.
