Replace Bridge No. 325 on SR 1004 (Ranes Chapel Road) over branch of Northeast Cape Fear River.
Project Sength is approximately 2,000 feet. It is unknown if there will be an off-site detour ai this time.
Bridge 325 is structurally deficient with a structural e�ahtation of 3 out of 9.
SUMMARY OF HISTORIC ARCHICTECTURE AND LANDSCAPES REVIEW
Description of review activities. results, and conclusions:
Review of HPO quad maps, HPOweb GIS mapping, historic designations roster, and indexes was
conducted on 1/20/15. Based on this review, there are no existing NR, SL, LD, DE, or SS properties in
the Area of Potentia! Effects (APE). Built in 1970, Bridge No. 325 is nat yet eligibla for listing to the
National Register of Historic Places {NRHP} due to insufficient age. Duplin County G1S mapping and
property records revealed no other properties over the age of fifly years old that could be considered
potentially eligible for the NRHP. The APE lies in northern Duplin County outside of Mount Olive. lt
corisists of mostly cleared farmlana, forested areas, and a couple of residences. Therefore, because there
are no historic or potential historic properties within the project APE, a survey is not required fQr this
project.

Project Description: NCDOT proposes to replace Bridge No. 0325 on SR 1004 (Rones Chapel Road)
over a branch of the Northeast Cape Fear River in Duplin County. The project was originally reviewed
for archaeological compliance and level of effort in March, 2015. The project was then described as
having a study area of approximately 2,000 ft. and a width of 250 ft. with greater emphasis to the north,
about 11.5 acres. At that point, no alternatives have been forwarded, though the expanded study area on
the north side allows for a possible on-site detour. The entire study area was considered the Area of
Potential Effects for the project, allowing for multiple design options including a possible on-site detour
on the north side of the existing bridge. An archaeological survey was recommended on an
"Archaeological Survey Required Form" dated March 25, 2015. Since that time, however, designs have
been proposed, resulting in a much reduced APE. The current plans, attached to this form, does not
include an on site detour and is also very much shorter, reducing from 2000 feet to 800 feet. As a smaller
replace-in-place project with an offsite detour, impacts are contained along the existing transportation
facility and no further consideration or archaeological survey is required. The project is state funded,
though USACE permitting will be required, therefore Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act applies.
SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW
Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions:
Please reference the project's March 25, 2015 "Archaeological Survey Required Form" for a detailed
analysis of soils, topography, and extent of modern disturbances that tend to favor poor archaeological
integrity. The form discusses that the surrounding wetlands close to the bridge generally have low
probability for containing archaeological resources but points out that there may be conditions favorable
to finding archaeological sites, perhaps intact, on the higher ground to either end of the then 2000-ft
project length. Since the current length and width of the project has been reduced by more than half, the
project APE now contains a large portion of wetland soils and none of the higher, drained, level soils at
the creek margins that has higher probability of intact, significant resources. There are no known
archaeological sites within the APE.
Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicting
that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE:
As a direct result of a refined, smaller preferred alternative with an offsite detour, the current APE no
longer contains much high or moderate probability landforms for containing archaeological sites. Since
this will be a replace in place bridge replacement and maintains the same alignment, the majority of the
APE has already been disturbed by the existing transportation facility, leaving little likelihood of intact,
significant resources. No archaeological survey is required for the preferred alternative.
