Explain the purpose of the proposed project:* 4.15M6 The purpose of this project is to replace an aging bridge structure that has received deficiency ratings, qualifying it for replacement. NCDOT wants to maintain NC 308 as a safe and reliable travel way for the public. This route is an important corridor for residents and commercial use in Washington County. 4g. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect imapacts and the type of equipment to be used:* This project will use a top down construction technique and stay within the footprint of the existing ROW. An off- site detour route will be used during construction. A portion of the e�asting bridge will be used as a work bridge for the project. This will be accomplished by adding 2 to 3 steel H-pile crutch bents within the foot print of the existing bridge. Crane mats will then be placed on the bridge deck to even the weight load. The e�asting 7 span wooden/concrete bridge @ 255 ft. X 26 ft. bridge will be replaced, with a new 5- span concrete bridge structure measuring 300 ft. X 33 ft. Upon completion of the structure, NCDOT will have to rebuild the roadway approaches on either end of the bridge. This will involve some minor widening of the roadway bridge approaches and some bank stabilization along the roadway shoulder. There will be some utility relocations required with the bridge replacement. This includes a 6" waterline, which will be bored from high ground to high ground, under Kendrick Creek, on the north side of the bridge. There will also be a telephone and fiber optic line relocated in the shoulder of the e�sting road, on the south side of the roadway, but no relocation within the boundary of Kendrick Creek (no boring). There are no impacts associated with the utility relocations. The proposed bridge replacement is illustrated on the attached permit drawings. The project will be built using cranes, excavators, backhoes, dump trucks and small equipment associated with bridge construction. 4h.

Comments: The temporary Hand Clearing impacts and excavation areas will be allowed to revert back to vegetated wetland status, following project completion. E. 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 design of this bridge has incorporated avoidance and minimization through the use of 2:1 side slopes in the wetland areas. This has reduce the fill footprint of the bridge approach. The new bridge is eliminating the need of 2 interior support bents in Kendrick Creek. The old bridge has 7 support bents and the new structure will have 5 support bents. The new bridge is 45 ft. longer than the e�sting one, which is allowing NCDOT to restore appro�amately 0.06 acres of floodplain area. The new bridge design does not have storm water deck drains, the storm water is routed off the bridge and discharged into the adjacent wetlands. The utility relocations have avoided all wetland impacts by utiliang upland boring points for the water line relocation. NCDOT is using an off- site detour to eliminate the need for an on-site secondary bridge to carry traffic during construction. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:* NCDOT will use a Top Down construction technique to rebuild the bridge. They will also use the e�sting structure as a temporary bridge to build the new structure. This will be done by adding 2-3 steel H-beam crutch bents under the existing spans, and use crane mats on the bridge deck to disperse the crane load. This method eliminates the need to build a v�rork bridge adjacent to the existing structure. The old bridge will be removed following NCDOT guidelines for bridge removal. We will have an approved erosion control plan, which will be implemented and maintained throughout the life of the project. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State i 2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State? f Yes C•' No 2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why: NCDOT has avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable and permanent impacts associated with this bridge replacement are 0.005 acres. F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR) "` Recent changes to the stormwater rules have required updates to this section ."* 1. Diffuse Flow Plan 1a.
