grading and planting with appropriate vegetation to existing upland
borrow-pit ponds.
(g) Sides slopes of 2 to 1 will be employed throughout the impacted wetlands.
(h) Any remaining unavoidable habitat value losses will be mitigated by
the withdrawal of an appropriate amount of credit from the NCDOT Mitigation

Commission and the Nature Conservancy.
(i) To help offset unavoidable fisheries habitat losses, suitable discarded
bridge material will be placed by D.O.T. on approved reef sites in western
Albemarle Sound.
(2) Upon issuance of this permit, the NCDOT will immediately initiate coordination
with the appropriate Federal and State review agencies to develop a detailed
mitigation plan. This plan will include, at a minimum, a list of acceptable
species for planting in restored and created wetlands, parameters necessary
to establish those species, and a monitoring schedule to be followed for
assessing the success of the mitigation features.
(3) No construction in? the river, tributaries or wetlands will be conducted
between the dates of March 15 and June 15 of any year to minimize impacts
on anadromous fish spawning without prior approval of the Division of Coastal
Management.

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of the North Carolina Department
of Transportation for a Department of the Army permit and a State
Water Quality Certification to place fill materials in the
wetlands of the Roanoke River to effect replacement of the U.S.
Highway 13/17 Bridge, near Williamston, Bertie/Martin Counties,
North Carolina. Your receipt of this letter verifies your
acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with
Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department
of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by January 13, 1986, the District
Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Mike Smith,
telephone [phone].
Sincerely,

Dear Sir:
SUBJECT: Bertie-Martin Counties, US 13-17, Bridge Over
Roanoke River Near Williamston (B-900)
District Engineer

P. 0. Box 1890

JAMES E. HARRINGTON
SECRETARY
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to replace the
existing drawbridge and approach structures on US 13-17 over the Roanoke
River at Williamston. A pair of medium-level, fixed span bridges
along an alignment generally parallel and immediately adjacent to the
existing bridge is proposed. The total project length is approximately
4950 feet, including 1154 feet of structure and 3796 feet of approaches
of which approximately 2800 feet of embankment will be fill in wetland.
The new structures-will provide four lanes of travel, a 45-foot vertical
clearance, and a horizontal navigational clearance of at least 85 feet.
On December 14, 1983, the Department of Transportation made application
for a Section 404 permit and a CAMA permit to construct the project.
This application was revised in February 1984. After a lengthy review
and numerous discussions it was concluded that agreement could not be
reached on the issuance of the permit for the work as proposed. In
January 1985 we agreed with the Corps of Engineers' request to retire
the application as extensive coordination remained to be accomplished
before a mutually acceptable plan could be developed.
There has been a great deal of coordination with the State and Federal
environmental review agencies and we believe we now have a project
which, with the mitigation we are proposing, will be acceptable and
appropriate permits may be issued. Therefore, we are submitting a new
application for a Section 404 and State Permits as required for the
subject work. Application is being made, by copy of this letter, for
those permits required from the North Carolina Department of Natural
Resources and Community Development. Attached is a copy of the permit
application and drawings depicting proposed work. Also attached is a
copy of the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis for the proposed bridge.

The proposed project will require the placement of fill in
approximately 6.8 acres of wetland; of which, 2.7 acres have been
previously disturbed by the construction of the existing bridge.
In the absence of feasible alternatives which would completely
avoid all the wetland areas, all practical measures to minimize
harm to wetlands will be utilized. The measures to minimize harm
to be employed on this project include the following:
The "existing location replacement was selected to minimize
harm to wetlands. Initial planning studies had all study
alignments further removed from the existing US 13-17
highway. The recommended alignment was originally
placed beyond the limits of the existing fender system of
the existing bridge. In order to minimize wetland losses,
the proposed alignment was shifted as close to the existing
highway as possible. As proposed, it will be constructed
within the fender system of the existing bridge, and have the
least negative impact on the area's wetlands.
In order to allow for wildlife movement through the wetland,
NCDOT has incorporated a pair of wildlife underpasses in its
plans. Based on studies conducted by the NCDOT Hydrographics
Unit, only one pair of overflow structures is required for
hydrological purposes. The proposed wildlife underpass
structures which are being added to accommodate the passage of
animals, will have 100 feet of opening and will be placed
midway between the river bridges and the overflow structures.
In order to offset unavoidable wetland losses on the subject
project and future highway projects, a mitigation banking
program has been instituted. This "banking" concept will
provide mitigation for bottomland hardwoods lost as a result
of highway and bridge construction projects. This program,
as agreed to in a formal Memorandum of Understanding by
the North Carolina Department of Transportation, North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service
and the North Carolina Nature Conservancy, offers a unique
approach to satisfying mitigation requirements associated
with the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act and Clean
Water Act. In an effort to achieve compensation for
unavoidable bottomland hardwood losses, the program requires that
fish and wildlife habitat be purchased in future highway projects.

Establishment of such a bank requires extensive site selection
studies, development of a management program, analysis of credits
using a credible habitat-based methodology such as the Habitat
Evaluation Procedure, and the establishment of guidelines for
administration of the bank. Such methodologies have been worked
out with the cooperating agencies mentioned earlier.
Company Swamp, a 1436 acre tract of land which was in immediate
danger of being timbered, was recently purchased by North
Carolina for $836,300. Of this sum, NCDOT provided $500,000
toward the purchase and management cost. This will result in NCDOT
gaining 1000 ownership of approximately 700 acres of selectively
cut-over bottomland forest and approximately 44% interest in
the remaining 736 acres which presently exists as a gum-cypress
climax forest. The entire Company Swamp tract, which is
adjacent to the Roanoke River Swamp, contains some of the finest
alluvial bottomland forests in the Southeastern United States. This
swamp complex is located in a portion of the Roanoke River
floodplain that is frequently inundated. A diversity of
geomorphic features including natural levees, relic channels,
meander scars and black swamp deposits are present. Bottomland
hardwoods containing gum and cypress, and the alluvial hardwood
communities that are present, are valuable resources because
they provide food, water, breeding territories and cover for
waterfowl, forbearers, wading and shorebirds, songbirds, and
numerous small mammals, amphibians and reptiles. When flooded,
such areas may be used by anadromous species as a forage site.
Since the subject project was instrumental in the development
of the "banking" plan, credits will be withdrawn as part of the
mitigation plan.
- The length of the main river structures have been increased by
280 feet (all on north side). This additional length will
span a natural levee to facilitate wildlife movement. In
addition, an improved flow of water underneath the structure
will result.
- To further facilitate the flow of water, a collector (upstream)
and distributor (downstream) ditch system will be provided to
transfer water from one side of the embankment to the other side.
This ditch system wi-11 have no outlet connection and will serve
to collect flow coming to the area of the proposed embankment
and redistribute it to the adjoining wetland along the entire
ditch length. The ditches will parallel the roadway and will

Page 4

be constructed along and just outside the base of the embankment.
These ditches will be interconnected by two ditch systems
perpendicular to the roadway. One will pass underneath the
overflow structures. The second will pass underneath the
wildlife underpasses. This ditch system should maintain sheet
flow as close to its original pattern as possible.
Approximately 3 acres of wetland vegetation will be reestablished
during project construction. This area is primarily underneath
and along the west edge of the existing bridge. This previously
disturbed area is one to two feet higher than the original
elevation of the area. The area has been built up by the deposition
of debris. This 3-acre area will be lowered to natural elevation,
thereby enabling the regeneration of characteristic wetland species.
Bottomland wetlands will be created in old borrow site areas at
the edge of the wooded floodplain, a few miles north of the US 13-17
bridge. One 2.2 acre pond will be totally filled with remnants
of the old bridge and a second pond, 7.1 acres in size, will be
partially filled in the same manner. Both of these ponds will be
"topped off" with mineral soils taken from the borrow site, and
planted with appropriate hardwood species. Proper elevations
for wetland species survival, fertilization, weed control, and
berm removal between created and natural wetlands will be
incorporated into project construction. A total of 7.0 acres of
wetland will be re-established in this manner.
Standard side slopes will be reduced from 6:1 to 2:1 through
the wetland areas.
If you have any questions, please give me a call at 733-6348.

HYDROLOGIC AND HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
AND DESIGN OF US-13&17 BRIDGE
OVER ROANOKE RIVER AT WILLIAMSTON
PROJECT NO.: 8.1090201 (B-900)
LOCATION: Bertie & Martin Counties
US 13&17 over Roanoke River
northeast of Williamston, NC
EXISTING STRUCTURES:
Main bridge over Roanoke River
Overflow Structure No. 1
it it No. 2
rr it No . 3
it tr No No. 4
Overall Length (feet)
2,760
230
236
780
300
DESIGN OBJECTIVE:
Investigate possibility of reducing bridge length on main bridge.
Since the construction of the existing structures at this site,
Roanoke River flow has been regulated by construction of the John
H. Kerr Dam upstream. Substantially reduced peak flows indicate
the feasibility of reducing bridge lengths downstream of Kerr
Lake .
pT:M01 nTMV .
The USGS computer step backwater model E-431 was used for analysis
and design. An attempt was made to calibrate the model using
known stage and discharge values supplied by the Corps of Engineers.
The flow across the entire flood plain was then "split up",
apportioning flow to each existing bridge in the flood plain
based an calculated conveyance values at each bridge.
Having verified a reasonable conveyance and width of influence
-1-

of the main river bridge, the proposed bridges were inserted
into the model. Due to the complexity of this analysis the three
proposed bridges replacing the existing main channel bridge were
combined and considered as one bridge for the purpose of computer
analysis.
RESULTS:
Comparison of measured data'and computer analysis of existing
structures for the entire flood plain are listed in Table 2 .
Comparison of backwater elevations and average velocities for
the proposed bridges and the existing main channel bridge are
listed in Table 1.
Table 1. Summary of computer analysis
Return Portion of Regulated Existing Proposed
Period Discharge carried Bridge Bridges
by main bridge
Backwater Aug;. Backwater Aug.
W.S. Elev. Velocit W.S. Elev. Velocity
50 yr. 23,080 efs. 0.25' 1.59 f/s 0.27' 3:10 f/s
9.70 9.62
100 yr. 41,500 cfs 0.40' 1.99 f/s 0.57' 4.45 f/s
12.10 12.27'
Expected increase in backwater due to proposed structures
is 0.02 ft. and 0.17 ft. for the 50 year. and 100 year event,
respectively.
See Table 2
CONCLUSIONS:
Expected proposed backwater should be somewhat 'Less than values
indicated by computer analysis because the contraction ratio is
less than that shown in the computer model due to location and
spacing of the overflow bridges.
-2-
It should also be noted that a proposed main channel bridge
length of 610 feet was used in the computer analysis. During
subsequent design changes this length was increased to 890 feet,
which increased the waterway area of the bridge by 1,340 square
feet. This change was not reflected in the computer analysis,
but would further reduce proposed backwater pd average velocities.
Proposed Design:
1. C.L. of proposed main structure station = 47+05
Proposed 3 @ 70'; 1 @ 1201; 8 @ 70' span
Waterway area provided = 9,240 ft.2 below EL. 11.7
2. C.L. of proposed wildlife crossing structure station = 59+00
Proposed 3 C 48' spans
Waterway area provided = 670 ft.2 below EL. 11.7
3. C.L. of proposed overflow structure station = 69+00
Proposed 3 C 40' spans
:waterway area provided = 670 ft2 below EL. 11.7

8. Project summary The project involves the replacement of the bridge across the
Roanoke River at Williamston with dual fixed span bridges.
Environmental setting
At the Bertie-Martin County line near Williamston, U.S. 13 and U.S. 17 cross the
Roanoke River. On the Martin County side of the river the area is developed with
various types of businesses. On the Bertie County side, the shoreline is an
undeveloped vast wooded swamp area. The area is vegetated with bald cypress, tupelo
gush, black gum, red maple and various other wetland types. At the crossing, there
is a low level swing span drawbridge which was constructed in 1948. The structure
has a total length of 2,770' which includes 200' of drawbridge and 2,570' of approach
spans. The bridge in closed position provides a 16' vertical clearance over the
Roanoke River. The horizontal navigational clearance is 83'.
Project proposal
The applicant is proposing to replace the existing drawbridge and approach structures
with a pair of medium-level, fixed span bridges along an alignment generally parallel
and immediately adjacent to the existing bridge. The total project length will be
4,950', including 1,154' of structure and 3,796' of approaches, of which approximately
2,800' of enbankment will be in wetlands. The new structure will provide four lanes
of travel, a 45' vertical clearance, and a horizontal navigational clearance of 85.
The N.C. Departnent of Transportation applied for a similar project in 1983, however,
due to concerns from various agencies about the loss of wetlands, the project was
temporarily placed on hold until the suhcnittal of the present application. The
N.C. DOT has tried to address the wetland losses more adequately in the present
application. The attached narrative from the N.C. DOT further addresses the project
proposal.
Environmental impact
The project as proposed will involve the placement of fill materials within 6.8
acres of wetlands, of which 2.7 acres have been previously disturbed by construction
of the existing highway and bridge. To help mitigate for the loss of the wetlands,
the applicant is proposing wildlife movement underpasses, mitigation banking, the
re-establishment of 3 acres of wetlands during project construction, and the creation
of wetlands at two borrow sites. Details on all of these, and details on the
applicant's attempts to minimize wetland loss are discussed in more detail in the
attached narrative.
