Explain the purpose of the proposed project: i The purpose of the proposed project is to remove a functionally obsolete bridge and to provide appropriate access to properties and utilities, located north of Bridge No. 214, by extending SR 3224 (Konica Drive). Please note that this project was previously authorized in February 2017; however, NCDOT will not be able to complete the project prior to the authorization expiration on March 18, 2018. Therefore, NCDOT is respectfully requesting a re-issuance of the project authorizations. The plans have not changed. 4g. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The project proposes to remove Bridge No. 214 on SR 3058 (Judge Adams Road) over Little Alamance Creek in Guilford County. A new bridge will not be constructed. A service road will be constructed to provide continued access to the properties north of Bridge No. 214. The proposed service road will tie into existing SR 3224 (Konica Drive), which runs south of and parallel to I-40/85, will be extended west to the existing utility easement north of Bridge No. 214 to tie into the northern limit of Judge Adams Road. The e�sting portion of SR 3224 (Konica Drive) will remain open during construction of the service road. Bridge No. 214 along SR 3058 (Judge Adams Road) will also remain open during construction of the service road and will be removed after the completion of the service road. NCDOT will implement sedimentation, erosion control, and storm water drainage BMPs during construction. NCDOT will adhere to Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds within the project area. Equipment to be used includes a track hoe, dump truck, paving equipment, crane, pumps and various hand tools. 4h.

Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:* The proposed project includes the removal of Bridge No. 214 in Guilford County and constructing a service road to provide access to properties and utilities who currently have access via SR 3058 (Judge Adams Road) north of Bridge No. 214. The proposed service road will be an 18-foot aggregate base road and will be constructed starting at the ewsting SR 3224 (Konica Drive) west appro�mately 2,925 feet to tie into the northern limit of Judge Adams Road. The proposed typical section of the service road will be two nine-foot wide lanes. The embankment will be graded for two 12-foot lanes with 6-foot shoulders per NCDOT standard practice. The elevation of the extended new road with its associated fill slopes over the e�asting stream elevation account for the proposed impacts for this project. Due to a projected traffic volume of 100 vehicles per day (vpd) on Konica Drive, NCDOT will be constructing a two-lane roadway typical section for the extension of Konica Drive, but will be placing an 18-foot wide stone surface at this time. Two cul-de-sacs will be constructed on either side of the Bridge No. 214 location, one at the westernmost terminus of the proposed service road extending from existing SR 3224 (Konica Drive) and one south of Bridge No. 214 along SR 3058 (Judge Adams Road). In determining the preferred alternative, NCDOT examined replacing the existing bridge in place as well as the proposed Konica Drive extension. From a cost perspective, Konica Drive Extension alternative (KDE) is estimated at $1,643,303 compared to the Judge Adams Bridge alternative (JAB) estimated at $1,523,903. NCDOT analyzed both alternatives with the same typical sections, matching KDE's 2, 12 foot lanes with 6 foot shoulders to JAB's 2, 9 foot lanes with 4 foot shoulders (a 36 foot width to a 26 foot width) and vice versa. When bringing up JAB's typical section to KDE's typical section for comparison purposes, NCDOT v�rould have to construct a 10 foot wider bridge and roadway on Judge Adams Road that would transition down to and tie into the e�sting 2, 9-foot lanes with 4 foot shoulders. This would result in the cost of JAB increasing beyond what is presented above as well as incurring additional jurisdictional impacts. Further, Judge Adams Road has an 11 % grade along the roadway down to the bridge; if NCDOT were to improve JA up to the KDE design parameters, that 11 % grade on Judge Adams Road would need to be improved which �nrould result in a higher and longer bridge, a higher and wider roadway, potential hydraulic backwater issues, and substantial increase in costs and environmental impacts higher than the KDE. As the purpose of the proposed project is to maintain access to properties and prevent them from becoming landlocked, the extension of Konica Drive was determined to be the preferred alternative based upon the above discussed concerns and circumstances related to cost, design, structures and proposed environmental impacts. The proposed 2, 12-foot lanes with 6-foot shoulders roadway typical is proposed as it matches the typical section of Konica Drive which is NCDOT policy. The cost estimates above reflect this proposed typical section for KDE, and the 2, 9-foot lanes with 4-foot shoulders typical section proposed for JAB which matches the ebsting typical section for Judge Adams Road. During construction of the service road, the existing portion of SR 3224 (Konica Drive) will remain open. Bridge No. 214 along SR 3058 (Judge Adams Road) will remain open during construction of the service road to provide access to properties and utilities located north of the bridge. The bridge will be removed after the completion of the service road. Runoff from the roadway runs across grass shoulders, and is collected in ditches, most of which are grass lined. Runoff that finds its way to storm sewer inlets is first conveyed through grass lined ditches. This promotes infiltration and filtration. The steepness of the project terrain is the main factor that precludes using filter strips, and precludes ditches from meeting water quality swale criteria. The storm sewer near buffers and wetlands is discharged to a preformed scour hole. Storm sewer was minimized on the project in favor of ditches. Cross pipes outlet to riprap pads to prevent erosion. Several measures such as a drop junction box, oversized culvert e�hension pipe, and riprap dissipator basin are used to reduce energy of the large culvert e�ension. NCDOT will implement sedimentation, erosion control, and storm water drainage BMPs during construction. NCDOT will adhere to Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds within the project area. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:* Erosion and sedimentation BMPs will be installed prior to construction. Water will be diverted around the work area to prevent sedimentation of downstream aquatic resources. Impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection of surface waters, restrictions against the staging of equipment in or adjacent to waters of the US and coordination (including a pre-construction meeting) with the Division Environmental Supervisor. 2.

Violations (DWR Requirement) 2a. Is the site in violation of DWR Water Quality Certification Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500), Isolated Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .1300), or DWR Surface Water or Wetland Standards or Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0200)? * C' Yes C•' No 2b. Is this an after-the-fact permit application?* C' Yes C•' No 2c. If you answered "yes" to one or both of the above questions, provide an explanation of the violation(s): 3. Cumulative Impacts (DWR Requirement) 3a. Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water qualit�i?* C' Yes �' No 3b. If you answered "no," provide a short narrative description. Per the NC DWQ April 10, 2004 Version 2.1 Cumulative Impacts policy, small scale public transportation projects — such as widening projects, bridge replacements and intersection improvements — have a"low potential for cumulative impact since little (if any) new impervious surface is added and the projects are usually in already developed locales." This proposed project is within a somewhat developed landscape (i.e. project site is adjacent to I-40 corridor, existing businesses and industrial buildings in the vicinity), this is not a road on a new location (i.e. there is an e�sting road and there used to be a bridge structure and thus, the area already contains impervious surfaces) and the project drains to Little Alamance Creek, which is Class WS-IV; NSW; CA (i.e. not HWQ or ORW). We anticipate the NC DWR will advise us if a qualitative or quantitative analysis is needed. 4. Sewage Disposal (DWR Requirement) 4a. Describe, in detail, the treatment methods and dispositions (non-discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project. If the wastewater will be treated at a treatment plant, list the capacity available at that plant. It is not anticipated that this project will generate any wastewater as it is a roadway project. 5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement) 5a. Will this project occur in or near an area with federally protected species or habitat? * C' Yes C•' No 5b. Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act impacts?* C� Yes �' No 5c. If yes, indicate the USFWS Field Office you have contacted. Raleigh 5d. Is another Federal agency involved?* C' Yes C•' No �' Unknown 5e. Is this a DOT project located within Division's 1-8?* C' Yes C' No 5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat?* An onsite investigation for Isotria medeoloides was conducted in 2013 and included in the project NRTR. No habitat or species were found within the project area. A review of the NCNHP records indicated no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area. Therefore, this project will have "no effecY' on the small whorled pogonia. Additionally, previous communication with Mr. Gary Jordan (USFWS) determined that a resurvey for the small whorled pogonia was not needed. Also, Mr. Gary Jordan (USFWS) recently released the Programmatic Conference Opinion (PCO) for the recently listed Northern Long Eared Bat (NLEB).
