US Army Corps Of Engineers Wilmington District Issue Date: June 6, 2006 Comment Deadline: July 7, 2006 Corps Action ID #: SAW 2006 32489 234 The Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers (Corps) has received an application from the City of Winston-Salem seeking Department of the Army authorization to impact approximately 1,380 linear feet of stream channels and 0.33 acres of wetlands of the jurisdictional waters of Sides Creek associated with the proposed extension of West Clemmonsville Road that would be routed from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) beginning at a location between Wharton Avenue and Jay Avenue to the west, and ending at a location between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue to the east, in Winston- Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. Specific plans and location information are described below and shown on the attached plans. This Public Notice and all attached plans are also available on the Wilmington District Web Site at www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands Applicant: City of Winston-Salem P.O. Box 2511 Winston-Salem, NC 27102 AGENT (if applicable): S&ME, Inc. 3718 Old Battleground Road Greensboro, NC 27410 Authority The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Location The proposed project site is located from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) beginning at a location between Wharton Avenue and Jay Avenue to the west, and ending at a location between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue to the east, in Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. Coordinates (in C C? OW 19 P JUN R 1 F Ow - 02100 PUBLIC NOTICE DENR - WATFq 0114ITY WETLANDSNNO fENkl?Ili) C:RLRANCN t decimal degrees) for the site are 36.0294 North, 80.2699 West. The site is adjacent to Sides Creek in the Yadkin River Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03040101). Existing Site Conditions General land use in the vicinity of the project consists of residential neighborhoods, agricultural / wooded areas, and several commercial businesses along Peters Creek Parkway. The project impact area is bordered to the north and south by residential, agricultural, and undeveloped land, bordered to the east by residences and several commercial businesses, and bordered to the west by residential neighborhoods. Vegetation within the proposed impact areas is mostly forested with cherry bark oak (Quercus falcate), eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana), and red maple (Ater rubrum), and understory vegetation consisting Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), greenbrier (Smilax; spp.) and blackberry (Rubus, spp.). The proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension will cross six drainage features, four being jurisdictional stream channels, identified as unnamed tributaries of Sides Creek. An approximate 0.33 acre riparian wetland which also would be included in the road fill is located adjacent to the stream channel identified as stream channel 3 in the project plans. The vegetation within the wetland includes bull rush (Juncus effuses), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and multiflora rose (Rosa multiora). Currently east / west traffic from West Clemmonsville Road to Peters Creek Parkway is bottled- necked through the old / existing residential development adjacent to Old Salisbury Road. The proposed project is a direct east / west extension of West Clemmonsville Road to a new intersection with Peters Creek Parkway. This project would greatly improve traffic flow of West Clemmonsville Road, remove traffic congestion out of the residential areas along Old Salisbury Road, and improve public traveling safety in the project area. Applicant's Stated Purpose As stated by the applicant, the purpose of the project is to improve traffic flow and public safety including pedestrian safety for the east / west traffic flows of West Clemmonsville Road with access to the Peters Creek Parkway. Project Description The project consists of the proposed extension of West Clemmonsville Road that would be routed from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) beginning at a location between Wharton Avenue and Jay Avenue to the west, and ending at a location between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue to the east. 2 Approximately 1,380 linear feet of stream channel and 0.33 acres of wetlands of the jurisdictional waters of Sides Creek would be piped and filled in conjunction with the road construction. The applicant proposes to mitigate for permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters (both stream channels and wetlands) by payment to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP). By letter dated March 3, 2006, the EEP stated their willingness to accept payment and provide 0.66 acres of riparian wetland mitigation and 2,506 linear feet of warm water stream channel mitigation in the Yadkin Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03040101). Other Required Authorizations This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and this public notice in the NCDWQ Central Office in Raleigh serves as application to the NCDWQ for certification. A waiver will be deemed to occur if the NCDWQ fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of the date of the receipt of this notice in the NCDWQ Central Office. Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be reviewed at the NCDWQ Central Office, 401 Oversight and Express Permits Unit, 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260. All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for certification under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act should do so in writing delivered to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ), 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1650 Attention: Ms Cyndi Karoly by June 30, 2006. Essential Fish Habitat This notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. The Corps' initial determination is that the proposed project will not adversely impact EFH or associated fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management Councils or the National Marine Fisheries Service. Cultural Resources The Corps has consulted the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places and is not aware that any registered properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein are located within the project area or will be affected by the proposed work.

Of Engineers Wilmington District Issue Date: June 6, 2006 Comment Deadline: July 7, 2006 Corps Action ID #: SAW 2006 32485 234 The Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers (Corps) has received an application from the City of Winston-Salem seeking Department of the Army authorization to impact approximately 489.5 linear feet of stream channels and 0.12 acres of wetlands of the jurisdictional waters of Brushy Fork Creek associated with the proposed realignment of Bowen Boulevard at its New Walkertown Road (US 311) intersection that would create a signalized intersection between Bowen Boulevard and New Walkertown Road at Overlook Drive, in Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. Specific plans and location information are described below and shown on the attached plans. This Public Notice and all attached plans are also available on the Wilmington District Web Site at www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands Applicant: AGENT (if applicable): City of Winston-Salem P.O. Box 2511 Winston-Salem, NC 27102 S&ME, Inc. 3718 Old Battleground Road Greensboro, NC 27410 JUN 1 6 2006 DENR. Vb- ?h F2 QUALITY ETLgf?(? ?MD STOF'MWAT[R ERANCN Authority The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Location The proposed project site is located southwest of the existing intersection of Bowen Boulevard and New Walkertown Road (US 311) in Winston Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. Coordinates (in decimal degrees) for the site are 36.1201 North, 80.2089 West. The site is adjacent to Brushy Fork Creek in the Yadkin River Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03040101). Existing Site Conditions General land use in the vicinity of the project consists of highly developed residential neighborhoods and several commercial businesses. The project impact area is bordered to the north by a commercial business, bordered to the east by New Walkertown Road (US 311), bordered to the south by single family apartments, and bordered to the west by an area controlled by the Forsyth County Airport Commission. Vegetation within the proposed impact is mostly forested with red maple (Ater rubrum) and sweet gum (Liquidambar styraciflua) and understory vegetation consisting of chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) and multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora). Two jurisdictional streams are present within the property's boundaries, both are unnamed tributaries of Brushy Fork Creek. Both stream channels have been degraded by the surrounding urban land use. Household trash litters the greatly incised and unstable stream channels. The site also includes an approximate 0.12 acre riparian wetland located between the two jurisdictional stream channels. The vegetation within the wetland is predominately shrub and herbaceous species including japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), and knotweed (Polygonum, spp.). New Walkertown Road (US 311) is a five-lane undivided facility which runs from Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive in Winston-Salem to Walkertown. It has a posted 45 miles per hour speed limit, but operating traffic speeds on the roadway often exceed 55 miles per hour. Fifty percent (50%) of the traffic on southbound New Walkertown Road originates from Carver School Road. The intersection of New Walkertown Road and Carver School Road is only 750 feet north of the intersection of New Walkertown Road and Bowen Boulevard. The close proximity of the intersections impacted further by the traffic volumes and average traffic speeds has resulted in serious accidents on this roadway including several fatalities. Applicant's Stated Purpose As stated by the applicant, the purpose of the project is to improve traffic flow and public safety including pedestrian safety on New Walkertown Road by relocating the Bowen Boulevard intersection from its existing location 750 south of the existing Carver School Road intersection. Project Description The project consists of the realignment of Bowen Boulevard south of its current location to a new intersection with New Walkertown Road increasing the distance of the current Bowen Boulevard intersection from the current Carver School Road intersection with New Walkertown Road by approximately 1800 feet. The new intersection would be located at the existing Overlook Dive intersection with New Walkertown Road. This 2 new intersection would be controlled by a traffic signal including a signal control for pedestrian crosswalks. Approximately 489.5 linear feet of stream channel and 0.12 acres of wetlands of the jurisdictional waters of Brushy Fork Creek would be piped and filled in conjunction with the road construction. The applicant proposes to mitigate for permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters (both stream channels and wetlands) by payment to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP). By letter dated March 3, 2006, the EEP stated their willingness to accept payment and provide 0.12 acres of riparian wetland mitigation and 490 linear feet of warm water stream channel mitigation in the Yadkin Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03040101). Other Required Authorizations This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and this public notice in the NCDWQ Central Office in Raleigh serves as application to the NCDWQ for certification. A waiver will be deemed to occur if the NCDWQ fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of the date of the receipt of this notice in the NCDWQ Central Office.

(S&ME) would like to submit on behalf of the City of Winston-Salem a response to your letter request for more information dated July 25, 2006. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUESTED: 1. A written analysis of the cumulative impact of this project is included in this letter. 2. A single map depicting entire project area and USACE delineated jurisdictional streams/wetlands (attached) 3. A written explanation of culvert design is included in this letter OVI SWE, INC./ 3718 Old Battleground Road/ Greensboro, NC 27410 1 p 336.288.7180 / 336.288.8980 / www.smeinc.com Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS ANALYSIS Based on the location of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension project through lightly developed areas, it is likely that this project will trigger development of tracts of land adjacent to the new road extension and therefore a cumulative impacts analysis is necessary. Cumulative impacts are defined as "environmental impacts resulting from incremental effects of an activity when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future activities regardless of what entities undertake such actions" (NCAC IA, 15A). Downstream Water Quality An online search of NCDWQ's BasinWide Information Management System (BIMS) shows water quality classifications for the site and its downstream water bodies include Class C waters. A Class C water is best utilized by aquatic life, wildlife, and for secondary recreation such as fishing, and agriculture. Unlike Class B waters, Class C waters may not be used for primary recreation such as swimming or as a water supply source for drinking water or food processing. No HQ TV (High Quality Waters), OR IV (Outstanding Resource Waters), water supply waters (WS-IV), Impaired Waters (303 (d) listed), SA (Commercial Shellfishing), or Trout waters appeared downstream of the project and it is unlikely that development of otherwise undeveloped downstream property would affect specially designated waters in Forsyth County. Aquatic Endangered Species According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's online database (http:111vlvw.nc- es. vs.gov/es/es.htntl) accessed July 28, 2006, there are no federally endangered aquatic species listed for Forsyth County, North Carolina. The Bog turtle (Clenunys muhlenbergii) is the only listed threatened aquatic species for Forsyth County and it has a historic record status, meaning the species was last observed in the county more than 50 years ago. The database search listed the Brook floater (Alasmidonta varicosa) as a federal species of concern for Forsyth County, North Carolina with an obscure record status, meaning the date and/or location of observation is uncertain. A review of the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commission's online document titled "NC Freshwater Mussels" (htip://www.izcwildlife.com/fs_index_07 coiiservation.htm) does not indicate any known 2 Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 populations of brook floater in the Yadkin River Basin; however, several populations were listed in the Cape Fear River Basin specifically in Moore, Chatham, and Orange counties. A Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report dated January 16, 2004 was included in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 Individual Permit Application that was submitted on May 22, 2006. The report dated January 16, 2004 concluded based on its records review and pedestrian field survey that suitable habitat was not observed for the federally threatened and endangered species and, therefore, the project should not have an effect on federally threatened and endangered species. Stormwater Management The City of Winston-Salem currently protects its streams through guidelines established by its erosion control ordinance and stonnwater management policies. Any project that proposes to disturb over 10,000 square feet of land, excluding a single family dwelling, requires submittal of an erosion control plan to the City of Winston-Salem's Inspections Department. A permit may be issued by the Inspections Department and the City of Winston-Salem reserves the right to conduct routine inspections and issue violations for projects that do not comply with permit standards. Please note that the City of Winston-Salem has modeled its erosion control ordinance based upon the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources guidelines. All development activities that require rezoning or that propose greater than 20,000 square feet of new impervious surface are subject to the City of Winston-Salem's stormwater management policy. A stormwater study is required for developments proposing greater than 20,000 square feet of new impervious surface. If a stormwater study determines that the project will have adverse effects on downstream runoff, onsite structural stormwater management controls are required to reduce the post development runoff to the pre-development runoff for a 10 year storm event. Currently water quality Best Management Practices (BMP) are not required in areas outside of the water supply watershed however, the City of Winston-Salem anticipates adoption of the NPDES Phase II Stormwater regulations within the next year. An ordinance associated with the NPDES Phase II regulations will be established that will require a 30 foot buffer on all intermittent and perennial streams. The ordinance will also allow the City of Winston-Salem review of the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff associated with proposed stormwater management plans. Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 CUMULATIVE IMPACT CONCLUSIONS Based on a review of stream classifications of downstream waters, it is unlikely that the proposed project or development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project will result in impacts to High Quality Waters, Outstanding Resource Waters, Impaired waters, or water supply waters in Forsyth County. Based on a review of USFWS online database searches, along with conclusions found in the Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report submitted in the May 22, 2006 Individual Permit Application, there are no endangered aquatic species listed for Forsyth County and it is unlikely that the proposed project or development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project will result in impacts to endangered or threatened aquatic species in Forsyth County. The City of Winston-Salem's implementation of the NPDES Phase II Stormwater Permit Program within the next year will establish an ordinance that gives the city additional control over protection of downstream water quality associated with development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project. PROPOSED CULVERT DESIGN Due to the classification of the West Clemmonsville Road Extension as a major collector road, the NCDOT design procedures recommend designing crossing drainage features to carry a minimum 50 year flood event. Designing culverts for a 50 year flood event would have required installation of 84", 102", 96", and 114" pipes. In order to reduce the stream impacts associated with placement of these size culverts, Alan Temple, P.E. with the City of Winston-Salem's Engineering Department has designed the culverts to carry a minimum 25 year flood event. This design has resulted in proposed installation of smaller pipes (78", 96", 84", and 108"). According to Mr. Temple, a traditional single barrel culvert was selected considering the cost, ease of maintenance access, and potential downstream velocities. The City of Winston-Salem does not believe that multi-barrel culverts with smaller diameter pipes would be a practical alternative. If smaller pipes were used in place of a 96" culvert for example, it would require 4 Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 placement of five 48" culverts, exceeding the width of impact required for only one 96" culvert. Staggering the pipes at different elevations, under flood conditions, may cause the pipes at flood elevations to collect debris, creating greater velocities in the lower pipes, resulting in undesirable velocities that lead to eroded stream channels. For this project, The City of Winston-Salem believes that single barrel culverts are a more practical means of culverting the streams. Sincerely, S&ME, Inc. Melanie McKinney, L.S.S.

(S&ME) would like to submit on behalf of the City of Winston-Salem a response to your letter request for more information dated July 25, 2006. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUESTED: 1. A written analysis of the cumulative impact of this project is included in this letter, 2. A single map depicting entire project area and USACE delineated jurisdictional streams/wetlands (attached) 3. A written explanation of culvert design is included in this letter SWE, INC. /3718 Old Battleground Road/ Greensboro, NC 27410 / p 336.288.7180 f 336.288.8980/www.smeinc.com Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS ANALYSIS Based on the location of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension project through lightly developed areas, it is likely that this project will trigger development of tracts of land adjacent to the new road extension and therefore a cumulative impacts analysis is necessary. Cumulative impacts are defined as "environmental impacts resulting from incremental effects of an activity when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future activities regardless of what entities undertake such actions" (NCAC IA, 15A). Downstream Water Quality An online search of NCDWQ's BasinWide Information Management System (BIMS) shows water quality classifications for the site and its downstream water bodies include Class C waters. A Class C water is best utilized by aquatic life, wildlife, and for secondary recreation such as fishing, and agriculture. Unlike Class B waters, Class C waters may not be used for primary recreation such as swimming or as a water supply source for drinking water or food processing. No HQIV (High Quality Waters), OR6F(Outstanding Resource Waters), water supply waters (WS-IV), Impaired lFaters (303 (d) listed), SA (Commercial Shellfishing), or Trout waters appeared downstream of the project and it is unlikely that development of otherwise undeveloped downstream property would affect specially designated waters in Forsyth County. Aquatic Endangered Species According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's online database (http://www.nc- es.fvs.,Qov/es/es.hhnl) accessed July 28, 2006, there are no federally endangered aquatic species listed for Forsyth County, North Carolina. The Bog turtle (Clenunys muhlenbergii) is the only listed threatened aquatic species for Forsyth County and it has a historic record status, meaning the species was last observed in the county more than 50 years ago. The database search listed the Brook floater (Alasmidonta varicosa) as a federal species of concern for Forsyth County, North Carolina with an obscure record status, meaning the date and/or location of observation is uncertain. A review of the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commission's online document titled "NC Freshwater Mussels" (htip://www.ncwildlife.com/fs_index 07 conservation.hbn) does not indicate any known 2 Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 populations of brook floater in the Yadkin River Basin; however, several populations were listed in the Cape Fear River Basin specifically in Moore, Chatham, and Orange counties. A Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report dated January 16, 2004 was included in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 Individual Permit Application that was submitted on May 22, 2006. The report dated January 16, 2004 concluded based on its records review and pedestrian field survey that suitable habitat was not observed for the federally threatened and endangered species and, therefore, the project should not have an effect on federally threatened and endangered species. Stormwater Management The City of Winston-Salem currently protects its streams through guidelines established by its erosion control ordinance and stormwater management policies. Any project that proposes to disturb over 10,000 square feet of land, excluding a single family dwelling, requires submittal of an erosion control plan to the City of Winston-Salem's Inspections Department. A permit may be issued by the Inspections Department and the City of Winston-Salem reserves the right to conduct routine inspections and issue violations for projects that do not comply with permit standards. Please note that the City of Winston-Salem has modeled its erosion control ordinance based upon the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources guidelines. All development activities that require rezoning or that propose greater than 20,000 square feet of new impervious surface are subject to the City of Winston-Salem's stormwater management policy. A stormwater study is required for developments proposing greater than 20,000 square feet of new impervious surface. If a stormwater study determines that the project will have adverse effects on downstream runoff, onsite structural stormwater management controls are required to reduce the post development runoff to the pre-development runoff for a 10 year storm event. Currently water quality Best Management Practices (BMP) are not required in areas outside of the water supply watershed however, the City of Winston-Salem anticipates adoption of the NPDES Phase II Stormwater regulations within the next year. An ordinance associated with the NPDES Phase II regulations will be established that will require a 30 foot buffer on all intermittent and perennial streams. The ordinance will also allow the City of Winston-Salem review of the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff associated with proposed stormwater management plans. 3 Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 CUMULATIVE IMPACT CONCLUSIONS Based on a review of stream classifications of downstream waters, it is unlikely that the proposed project or development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project will result in impacts to High Quality Waters, Outstanding Resource Waters, Impaired waters, or water supply waters in Forsyth County. Based on a review of USFWS online database searches, along with conclusions found in the Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report submitted in the May 22, 2006 Individual Pen-nit Application, there are no endangered aquatic species listed for Forsyth County and it is unlikely that the proposed project or development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project will result in impacts to endangered or threatened aquatic species in Forsyth County. The City of Winston-Salem's implementation of the NPDES Phase II Stormwater Permit Program within the next year will establish an ordinance that gives the city additional control over protection of downstream water quality associated with development of otherwise undeveloped property downstream of the project. PROPOSED CULVERT DESIGN Due to the classification of the West Clemmonsville Road Extension as a major collector road, the NCDOT design procedures recommend designing crossing drainage features to carry a minimum 50 year flood event. Designing culverts for a 50 year flood event would have required installation of 84", 102", 96", and 114" pipes. In order to reduce the stream impacts associated with placement of these size culverts, Alan Temple, P.E. with the City of Winston-Salem's Engineering Department has designed the culverts to carry a minimum 25 year flood event. This design has resulted in proposed installation of smaller pipes (78", 96", 84", and 108"). According to Mr. Temple, a traditional single barrel culvert was selected considering the cost, ease of maintenance access, and potential downstream velocities. The City of Winston-Salem does not believe that multi-barrel culverts with smaller diameter pipes would be a practical alternative. If smaller pipes were used in place of a 96" culvert for example, it would require Response to Request for Additional Information S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Forsyth County, NC September 20, 2006 placement of five 48" culverts, exceeding the width of impact required for only one 96" culvert. Staggering the pipes at different elevations, under flood conditions, may cause the pipes at flood elevations to collect debris, creating greater velocities in the lower pipes, resulting in undesirable velocities that lead to eroded stream channels. For this project, The City of Winston-Salem believes that single barrel culverts are a more practical means of culverting the streams. Sincerely, S&ME, Inc. Melanie McKinney, L.S.S.

A revised drawing is attached that depicts additional impacts to waters of the U.S. for Proposed Stream Impact 4. The increase in proposed impacts to waters of the U.S. is based upon plans made by both the City of Winston- Salem and the adjacent landowner, Lowe's Home Improvement. A right of way to be maintained by the City of Winston-Salem has been designated through a portion of the Lowe's Home Improvement property. An additional 10.5 linear feet of stream is to be culverted, connecting the City of Winston-Salem's culvert to the Lowe's Home Improvement's culvert. Please note that total proposed waters of the U.S. impacts should be changed from 1,380 linear feet to 1,391 linear feet in the permit application.

A revised drawing is attached that depicts additional impacts to waters of the U.S. for Proposed Stream Impact 4. The increase in proposed impacts to waters of the U.S. is based upon plans made by both the City of Winston- Salem and the adjacent landowner, Lowe's Home Improvement. A right of way to be maintained by the City of Winston-Salem has been designated through a portion of the Lowe's Home ltnprovement property. An additional 10.5 linear feet of stream is to be culverted, connecting the City of Winston-Salem's culvert to the Lowe's Home Improvement's culvert.

The project will consist of utilizing a portion of Forsyth County Tax Parcel Numbers 6823-51-0738, 6823-42-6565, 6823-53- 6009, and 6823-62-4250. The proposed project area is located in Winston-Salem (Forsyth County), North Carolina (36.0294 N, 80.2699 W). The approximate location of the project area is depicted by the attached figures: Vicinity (Figure 1), USGS Topography Map (Figure 2), Aerial with Proposed Impacts (Figure 3), and Wetland Survey with Site Plan (Figures 4-6). Purpose and Need/Avoidance and Minimization A purpose and need statement, discussion of avoidance and minimization strategies, along with an alternatives analysis is provided by the City of Winston Salem Public Works Department in the permit application section titled "Supplemental Information provided by the City of Winston- Salem". Existing Site Conditions General land use in the vicinity of the project consists of largely residential neighborhoods, many agricultural and wooded areas, along with several commercial businesses along Peters Creek Parkway. The project impact area is bordered to the north and south by residential, agricultural, and undeveloped land, bordered to the east by residences and several commercial businesses, and bordered to the west by residential neighborhoods. Vegetation within the proposed impact area is mostly forested with cherry bark oak (Querezzs falcata), eastern red cedar (Jimiperus 2 s Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem, NC May 22, 2006 virginiana), and red maple (Ater rubrun:), and understory vegetation consists of chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), greenbriar (Smilax, spp.) and blackberry (Rubes, spp.). The proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension will cross six drainage features (as depicted in Figure 1), four being jurisdictional streams, identified as an unnamed tributaries to Sides Creek. Proposed mitigation ratios as discussed with the USACE, are provided in the "Compensatory Mitigation" section of this letter. Photographs of the six drainage features and jurisdictional streams are included in the permit application section titled "Photographs of Existing Site Conditions." An approximately 0.33 acre riparian wetland is proposed to be impacted, adjacent to Proposed Stream Impact 3. The vegetation within the wetland includes bull rush (Juncus effusus), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and multiflora rose (Rosa mult flora).

Due to delayed funding, the project could not begin before its January 21, 1997 expiration date and the City of Winston-Salem requested a permit extension from the USACE (request letter attached). On November 17, 1997 the USACE issued a two year extension to the Nationwide Permit Number 14 with USACE Action ID No. 199820206 (attached). In 1999, the City of Winston-Salem was denied any further extensions of the 1996 permit by the USACE and construction of the project had not begun. The Nationwide Permit Number 14, valid from 1996 to 1999 measured stream impacts in acres, and the project was allowed less than 0.33 acre of impacts to "jurisdictional waters." The City of Winston-Salem was informed by the USACE that an additional permit would need to be obtained to account for expiration of 1996 permit. S&ME conducted a jurisdictional wetlands and waters of the U.S. delineation of the on-site wetlands in June 2003. During an August 21, 2003 onsite meeting between Eric Galamb with S&ME, and USACE representative Todd Tugwell, the onsite features were verified with USACE Action ID # 200420609. Based on the USACE's current permitting program, the proposed project that once allowed less than 0.33 acre of impacts to waters under a Nationwide Permit, will exceed impacts of 300 linear feet to waters, requiring submittal of a USACE Section 404 Individual Permit Application. 4 i Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem, NC May 22, 2006 Proposed Waters of the U.S. Impacts Approximately 1,380 linear feet of waters of the U.S. are proposed to be impacted by placement of culverts in four onsite jurisdictional streams.

The West Clemmonsville Road/Old Salisbury Road/Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) area has served as a crossroads for this growth. This growth has placed a strain on the area's existing street and highway network's ability to move vehicular and pedestrian traffic in a safe and efficient manner. Over time the cumulative effects of additional development will worsen the already high levels of traffic congestion and accidents in the area. Alternative study: In response to the safety and congestion problems, the City of Winston-Salem studied a variety of alternatives. These alternatives fall into three main categories: 1) Do nothing option, 2) Improve existing facilities option and 3) New construction option. The "Do nothing" option does not address the problems and would only increase the cost of improvements by delaying them until a crisis occurs. The results of this alternative ® will be increased congestion, increased delays and increased vehicular emissions. The "Improve existing facilities" option would address the current traffic safety and volume needs, but it could not be a long term solution. The existing facilities can be widened to a certain extent, without significant impacts to the adjoining property owners. However, if the traffic volumes continue to increase, the required additional widening of the facilities would cause significant impacts. The impacts along these facilities will not only affect homeowners, but businesses, churches, schools, daycares and other community significant facilities. Th "N " e ew construction option would address the current traffic safety and volume needs and could be a long term solution. By increasing the infrastructure in the area, the new roads could be designed to alleviate traffic volumes from the existing facilities and encourage growth is a more judicial manner. This could postpone or eliminate the need to improve the existing facilities. Alternative selection: After studying the alternatives, the City of Winston-Salem decided that the "New construction" option was preferred and presented its findings to the public at an August 1993 public meeting. After the "New construction" option was selected, the City of Winston-Salem studied four alternative routes. See the attached map for the four construction options. 1 r ?1 Option C is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Sides Road. This option would increase traffic and congestion on Sides Road, which already has a poor alignment. It would also increase traffic at the intersection of Sides Road and Clemmonsville Road, which is adjacent to the Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Clemmonsville Road interchange. Option D is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Ocala Drive. This option also includes a connection to Sides Road. While the connection to Sides Road would resolve the poor alignment issue, it would still create ® traffic congestion at the intersection of Sides Road and Clemmonsville Road. Option E is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue. This option is the most direct route; however, it does not provide a continuous thoroughfare in an east-to-west direction. Option F is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Sina Avenue. This option takes the southernmost route and while it does allow for easy access for neighborhoods to the east of Peters Creek Parkway, it does not provide a continuous thoroughfare in an east-to-west direction. Decision: A follow-up public meeting was held May 1995, showing Option E as the proposed construction alternative. Option E is a new location route directly from Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway. It provides a "T" intersection with Peters Creek Parkway at a location best suited for a signalized intersection and median break. This route encourages traffic from the West Clemmonsville Road to use Peters Creek Parkway to connect to Clemmonsville Road. Citizens along Sides Road, Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue were concerned about options that encouraged through traffic to use their roads. This option will reduce through traffic on local streets. Option E also allows well planned growth to occur in an area of the county that was previously inaccessible. The City of Winston-Salem's Public Works Committee approved the study and instructed staff to develop a design for Option E. Follow-up: March 4, 1996 - Received a NWP 14 for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) for the West Clemmonsville Road Extension. The Action ID of the permit is 199602021. The expiration date of the permit was January 21, 1997. 1 7 October 28, 1996 - The City of Winston-Salem Board of Aldermen pass a resolution to acquire by deed or condemnation the right-of-way necessary for the Extension of West Clemmonsville Road. November 3, 1997 - The City informed the USACE that the funding for the project had been delayed and construction had not begun. A new two-year permit for the work was requested at that time. November 14, 1997 - The City of Winston-Salem submitted an application to the N.C. Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources (NCDENR) for an erosion control permit to construct the project. November 17, 1997 - The USACE issued a new NWP 14 for the project. The Action ID of the permit is 199720206. The expiration date of the permit was November 17, 1999. December 12, 1997 - The NCDENR granted approval for the erosion control plans for construction of the project. ' March 1998 to June 2000 - Placement and compaction of soil for Phase 1 (the first 850 from Old Salisbury Road eastward) of the project is accomplished. October 4, 1999 - All of the necessary right-of-way and construction easements for the project have been acquired by the City of Winston-Salem. il Apr 2005 - Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. submitted plans to the City of Winston-Salem for a proposed rezoning of property at the southwest corner of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension and Peters Creek Parkway. October 2005 to Date - Wal-Mart met all of the requirements for rezoning and permitting 1 from the City and Wal-mart has been given approval to construct the first 730' from Peters Creek Parkway westward. Construction has begun on the Wal-Mart site and for the first 730' of the West Clemmonsville Road Extension. ' November 2005 - Lowe s Home Improvement submitted plans to the City for proposed rezoning of property at the northwest corner of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension and Peters Creek Parkway.

Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Description The city of Winston-Salem, North Carolina proposes to realign Bowen Boulevard to tie into the intersection of New Walkertown Road and Overlook Drive (city project number 01012). Figure 1, located in the Appendix, shows the location of the Bowen Boulevard re-alignment. The city also proposes to extend Carver School Road from Motor Road to the intersection of Old Walkertown Road and Carver School Road (city project number 20030). Figure 2 presents the proposed Carver School Road extension. West Clemmonsville Road extension, city project number 95007, would begin at the intersection of Old Salisbury Road and West Clemmonsville Road and continue east to connect at Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150). Figure 3 shows the location of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road alternative. 1.2 Purpose of this Study For this report, the proposed road projects were surveyed for threatened and endangered species. The purpose of this technical report is to inventory, catalog, and describe the various threatened and endangered species for the three projects. This report also describes the anticipated impacts to these resources and recommends measures that will minimize impacts. The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are relevant only in the context of existing design concepts. If design parameters and criteria change, additional field investigations may need to be conducted. 1.3 Data Review Information concerning the occurrence of federal and state protected species in the study area was gathered from the following sources: • US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) list of Forsyth County Endangered Species, Threatened Species, and Federal Species of Concern website (http://nc- cs.fivs.gov/cs/countyfr.html) • NC Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database of rare species and unique habitats. 1.4 Field Surveys Pedestrian field surveys were conducted on May 26 and 27, 2003 for the federally listed U_ Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 threatened and endangered species. Special attention was given to mature pine stands, streambanks, and wetlands as they are the primary habitats for the threatened and endangered species listed for the project vicinity. n 1.5 Investigator Mr. Eric Galamb, who performed the fieldwork and reporting for this project, received a B.S. in Environmental Management, and Biogeography from University of Toronto, and has been working as a professional in the environmental sciences for fifteen years. He has specialized in project management; regulatory agency coordination; wetland and stream permitting; wetland. and stream mitigation; wetland and stream mitigation monitoring; wetland determinations and delineations utilizing U.S. Army Corps of Engineer (USACE) methodology; stream assessments utilizing USACE and N.C.

He is a Professional Wetland Scientist. 1 1.6 Definitions u u L n B Definitions of area descriptions used in this report are as follows: Project Study Area denotes the area bounded by proposed right-of-way limits; Project Vicinity describes an area extending 0.5 miles on all sides of the project study area; and Project Region is equivalent to an area represented by a 7.5 minute USGS quadrangle maps with the project occupying the central position. t 1-1 0 u U r 1 n H- 1-1 7 U_ n L L. Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 2.0 PROTECTED SPECIES Species with the federal status Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Proposed Endangered (PE), and Proposed Threatened (PT) are protected under provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Any activity permitted, funded, or conducted by a federal agency that may affect a listed species or designated critical habitat requires a consultation with the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The result of the consultation is a written biological opinion of whether the proposed action is likely to result in jeopardy to a listed species or adverse modification of designated critical habitat. Federal species of concern (FSC) is similar to a "watch" list and these species are not afforded protection until they are formally listed as threatened or endangered 2.1 Federally Threatened and Endangered Species There are three federally listed species in Forsyth County and one listed as a species of concern. These are shown in Table 1. A description of the species follows. The results of the threatened and endangered species surveys conducted are discussed in Section 3.

It can be identified by the bright orange spots on either side of the head. It prefers wet meadows, bogs, marshes, and other wetland environments where the ground is soft and light penetrates. Because these habitats tend to be early successional stage areas that are encroached over time by woody material, bog turtle habitat locations change over time. Bog turtles prefer a mosaic habitat including both dry and wet microhabitat such as a wetland area within a meadow (Bog Turtles Slipping Aivay website, http://sites.statc.pa.us/PA_Exec/Fish Boat/sepoct98/bogturtl.htm). The species is threatened from collection for the pet trade, as well as from alteration of the wetland habitat the species requires (USFWS website, http://nc-cs.fws.gov/ es/es.html). The southern population of bog turtle is not threatened, but the species is listed because of the difficulty of differentiating between the northern and southern populations. Red-Cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis), Endangered The red-cockaded woodpecker lives in open stands of southern pines with a minimum age of 80 to 120 years. They most commonly nest in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), but will also use other southern pine species. The birds lay eggs from April through June, with 38 days from egg laying to fledging and several additional weeks before the young become independent. Red- cockaded woodpeckers feed primarily on insects, supplemented by seasonal wild fruit (USFWS website, http://nc-es.fws.gov/es/es.html). The species' decline is attributed to the loss of pine forests with trees 80 years old or older. Fire suppression has led to the intrusion of hardwood species, further reducing the specialized habitat the species requires (USFWS Endangered Species Program Website, http://endangered.fws.gov). Small-Anthered Bittercress, (Cardamine micranthera), Endangered The small-anthered bittercress is a small plant 8-16 inches tall, with small white flowers that bloom in April to May. The leaves are almost square and non-clasping. The plant lives in seepages, wet rock crevices, streambanks, sandbars, and wet woods along small streams. Historically it is known in the Dan River drainage in the northern Roanoke River Basin. 4 Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 Threats to the small-anthered bittercress include agricultural and residential development, impoundment, channelization, exotic weeds, and toxic chemical spills (USFWS website, http://nc-es.fws.gov/es/es.html). I Brook Floater, (Alasmidonta varicosa), Federal Species of Concern The brook floater has a fairly small, thin, rhomboidal shaped shell that rarely exceeds 70 mm in length, 40 mm in height, and 30 mm in width. The conspicuous posterior slope is broad and flat to slightly concave, with numerous short, low corrugations radiating toward the posterior margin at right angles to the growth lines. The periostracum is yellowish or brownish with numerous dark green or black rays. The nacre is glossy, bluish white and grades into a pale orange in the umbo area. The hinge teeth are poorly developed. Each valve has one small thin, triangular pseudocardinal tooth and lateral teeth are lacking or vestigial. This species has a bright orange foot (http://www.ncwildlife.org/pg07_WildlifeSpeciesCon/pg7blal_8.htin). This species inhabits medium size streams and rivers. It prefers clean, swift waters with stable gravel, or sand and gravel substrates. However, individuals found near the mouth of the Linville River in North Carolina were observed in sandy/silty substrate in cracks between boulders along a steep bank, in 1 to 3 feet of water and relatively slow current. The brook floater is found in Atlantic Slope river basins from the Savannah River Basin in South Carolina north to the St Lawrence River Basin in Canada. It has also been found in the Greenbrier River (Ohio River Basin) of West Virginia. It is considered more common in the northern part of its range. Distribution by County: Catawba River Basin: Burke Co. (Linville River, Warrior Fork, and Johns River subbasins); Pee Dee River Basin: Surry Co. (Mitchell River Subbasin), Randolph Co. (Caraway Cr. and Little River subbasins), Montgomery Co. (Little River and Barnes Cr. Subbasins); Cape Fear River Basin: Moore Co. (Deep River), Chatham Co. (Rocky River Subbasin); Neuse River Basin: Orange Co. (Eno River Subbasin). 22 State Listed Species Species with state designations Endangered, Threatened, or Special Concern are granted protection by the State Endangered Species Act and the State of North Carolina Plant Protection and Conservation Act of 1979. Legal protection under North Carolina state law regulates the possession, propagation, or sale of protected species. North Carolina listed species do not have 5 Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 the legal protection with respect to road location decisions afforded to federal Endangered or Threatened species.

Federal law (under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended) requires that any action likely to adversely affect a species classified as federally protected be subject to review by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Other species may receive additional protection under separate state laws. 3.1.1 Federally Threatened and Endangered Species Surveys were performed on May 26 and 27, 2003 along the proposed road projects for threatened and endangered species listed in the county. The biological conclusion for each of the species is provided below. BOG TURTLE (Clenmtys inuhlenbergii) 1 BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT No areas with suitable habitat were located for any of the three road projects. Therefore, the proposed projects would not impact the bog turtle. RED-COCKADED WOODPECKER (Picoides borealis) BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION C H- NO EFFECT Surveys were conducted according to the Guidelines for Preparation of Biological Assessments and Evaluations for the Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Henry, 1989). No suitable nesting habitat in the form of large pine tree stands 80 years or older is present within the project vicinity. Therefore, construction of the three proposed roads is not likely to affect the red-cockaded woodpecker. 1 7 Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 SMALL-ANTHERED BITTERCRESS (Cardamine inicrantkera) BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Surveys for the small-anthered bittercress were conducted, but no individuals were observed. No individuals have been observed in Forsyth County more than 40 years. Additionally, since the three projects are exclusively in the Yadkin River Basin, a basin in which the small-anthered bittercress is not known to occur, it is unlikely that populations of the plant occur along the proposed project corridors. 3.1.2 State Listed Species Formal surveys for state listed species were not conducted nor were individuals of these species observed. 8 t Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 4.0 REFERENCES Anonymous.

Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem NC May 22 2006 Background Information The proposed extension of West Clemmonsville Road would be routed from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC150) beginning at a location between Wharton Avenue and Jay Avenue to the west, and ending at a location between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue to the cast. The project will consist of utilizing a portion of Forsyth County Tax Parcel Numbers 6823-51-0738, 6823-42-6565, 6823-53- 6009, and 6823-62-4250. The proposed project area is located in Winston-Salem (Forsyth County), North Carolina (36.0294 N, 80.2699 W). The approximate location of the project area is depicted by the attached figures: Vicinity (Figure 1), USGS Topography Map (Figure 2), Aerial with Proposed Impacts (Figure 3), and Wetland Survey with Site Plan (Figures 4-6). Purpose and Need/Avoidance and Minimization A purpose and need statement, discussion of avoidance and minimization strategies, along with an alternatives analysis is provided by the City of Winston Salem Public Works Department in the permit application section titled "Supplemental Infonnation provided by the City of Winston- Salem". Existing Site Conditions General land use in the vicinity of the project consists of largely residential neighborhoods, many agricultural and wooded areas, along with several commercial businesses along Peters Creek Parkway. The project impact area is bordered to the north and south by residential, agricultural, and undeveloped land, bordered to the east by residences and several commercial businesses, and bordered to the west by residential neighborhoods. Vegetation within the proposed impact area is mostly forested with cherry bark oak (Quercus falcata), eastern red cedar (Juniperus 2 Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem, NC May 22, 2006 virginiana), and red maple (Ater rubrum), and understory vegetation consists of chinese privet (Ligustrtmi shiense), greenbriar (Smilax, spp.) and blackberry (Rebus, spp). The proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension will cross six drainage features (as depicted in Figure 1), four being jurisdictional streams, identified as an unnamed tributaries to Sides Creek. Proposed mitigation ratios as discussed with the USACE, are provided in the "Compensatory Mitigation" section of this letter. Photographs of the six drainage features and jurisdictional streams are included in the permit application section titled "Photographs of Existing Site Conditions." An approximately 0.33 acre riparian wetland is proposed to be impacted, adjacent to Proposed Stream Impact 3. The vegetation within the wetland includes bull rush (Juncus effusus), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora). 3 Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem, NC May 22, 2006 USACE Permits Issued to Project Please note that the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension project was approved by the USACE in 1996 with Nationwide Permit Number 14, issued on March 4, 1996 with USACE Action ID No. 199602021 (attached). Due to delayed funding, the project could not begin before its January 21, 1997 expiration date and the City of Winston-Salem requested a permit extension from the USACE (request letter attached). On November 17, 1997 the USACE issued a two year extension to the Nationwide Permit Number 14 with USACE Action ID No. 199820206 (attached). In 1999, the City of Winston-Salem was denied any further extensions of the 1996 permit by the USACE and construction of the project had not begun. The Nationwide Pen-nit Number 14, valid from 1996 to 1999 measured stream impacts in acres, and the project was allowed less than 0.33 acre of impacts to "jurisdictional waters." I The City of Winston-Salem was informed by the USACE that an additional permit would need to be obtained to account for expiration of 1996 permit. S&ME conducted a jurisdictional wetlands and waters of the U.S. delineation of the on-site wetlands in June 2003. During an August 21, 2003 onsite meeting between Eric Galamb with S&ME, and USACE representative Todd Tugwell, the onsite features were verified with USACE Action ID # 200420609. Based on the USACE's current permitting program, the proposed project that once allowed less than 0.33 acre of impacts to waters under a Nationwide Permit, will exceed impacts of 300 linear feet to waters, requiring submittal of a USACE Section 404 Individual Pen-nit Application. t d 1-1 t Section 404 Individual Permit S&ME Project No. 1588-06-034 West Clemmonsville Road Extension - Winston-Salem, NC May 22, 2006 Proposed Waters of the U.S. Impacts Approximately 1,380 linear feet of waters of the U.S. are proposed to be impacted by placement of culverts in four onsite jurisdictional streams.

The West Clemmonsville Road/Old Salisbury Road/Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) area has served as a crossroads for this growth. This growth has placed a strain on the area's existing street and highway network's ability to move vehicular and pedestrian traffic in a safe and efficient manner. Over time the cumulative effects of additional development will worsen the already high levels of traffic congestion and accidents in the area. Alternative study: In response to the safety and congestion problems, the City of Winston-Salem studied a variety of alternatives. These alternatives fall into three main categories: 1) Do nothing option, 2) Improve existing facilities option and 3) New construction option. The "Do nothing" option does not address the problems and would only increase the cost of improvements by delaying them until a crisis occurs. The results of this alternative will be increased congestion, increased delays and increased vehicular emissions. The "Improve existing facilities" option would address the current traffic safety and volume needs, but it could not be a long term solution. The existing facilities can be widened to a certain extent, without significant impacts to the adjoining property owners. However, if the traffic volumes continue to increase, the required additional widening of the facilities would cause significant impacts. The impacts along these facilities will not only affect homeowners, but businesses, churches, schools, daycares and other community significant facilities. The "New construction" option would address the current traffic safety and volume needs and could be a long term solution. By increasing the infrastructure in the area, the new roads could be designed to alleviate traffic volumes from the existing facilities and encourage growth is a more judicial manner. This could postpone or eliminate the need to improve the existing facilities. Alternative selection: After studying the alternatives, the City of Winston-Salem decided that the "New construction" option was preferred and presented its findings to the public at an August 1993 public meeting. After the "New construction" option was selected, the City of Winston-Salem studied four alternative routes. See the attached snap for the four construction options. n Option C is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Sides Road. This option would increase traffic and congestion on Sides Road, which already has a poor alignment. It would also increase traffic at the intersection of Sides Road and Clemmonsville Road, which is adjacent to the Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Clemmonsville Road interchange. Option D is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Ocala Drive. This option also includes a connection to Sides Road. While the connection to Sides Road would resolve the poor alignment issue, it would still create traffic congestion at the intersection of Sides Road and Clemmonsville Road. Option E is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) between Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue. This option is the most direct route; however, it does not provide a continuous thoroughfare in an east-to-west direction. Option F is a new location route from the existing intersection of West Clemmonsville Road and Old Salisbury Road to the existing intersection of Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150) and Sina Avenue. This option takes the southernmost route and while it does allow for easy access for neighborhoods to the east of Peters Creek Parkway, it does not provide a continuous thoroughfare in an east-to-west direction. Decision: A follow-up public meeting was held May 1995, showing Option E as the proposed construction alternative. Option E is a new location route directly from Old Salisbury Road to Peters Creek Parkway. It provides a "T" intersection with Peters Creek Parkway at a location best suited for a signalized intersection and median break. This route encourages traffic from the West Clemmonsville Road to use Peters Creek Parkway to connect to Clemmonsville Road. Citizens along Sides Road, Ocala Drive and Sina Avenue were concerned about options that encouraged through traffic to use their roads. This option will reduce through traffic on local streets. Option E also allows well planned growth to occur in an area of the county that was previously inaccessible. The City of Winston-Salem's Public Works Committee approved the study and instructed staff to develop a design for Option E. Follow-up: March 4, 1996 - Received a NWP 14 for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for the West Clemmonsville Road Extension. The Action ID of the permit is 199602021. The expiration date of the permit was January 21, 1997. HL, u e October 28, 1996 - The City of Winston-Salem Board of Aldermen pass a resolution to acquire by deed or condemnation the right-of-way necessary for the Extension of West Clemmonsville Road. November 3, 1997 - The City informed the USACE that the funding for the project had been delayed and construction had not begun. A new two-year permit for the work was requested at that time. Hi; n U. r_ ?•I 0 L n u November 14, 1997 - The City of Winston-Salem submitted an application to the N.C. Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources (NCDENR) for an erosion control permit to construct the project. November 17, 1997 - The USACE issued a new NWP 14 for the project. The Action ID of the permit is 199720206. The expiration date of the permit was November 17, 1999. December 12, 1997 - The NCDENR granted approval for the erosion control plans for construction of the project. March 1998 to June 2000 - Placement and compaction of soil for Phase 1 (the first 850' from Old Salisbury Road eastward) of the project is accomplished. October 4, 1999 - All of the necessary right-of-way and construction easements for the project have been acquired by the City of Winston-Salem. April 2005 - Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. submitted plans to the City of Winston-Salem for a proposed rezoning of property at the southwest corner of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension and Peters Creek Parkway. October 2005 to Date - Wal-Mart met all of the requirements for rezoning and permitting from the City and Wal-mart has been given approval to construct the first 730' from Peters Creek Parkway westward. Construction has begun on the Wal-Mart site and for the first 730' of the West Clemmonsville Road Extension. November 2005 - Lowe's Home Improvement submitted plans to the City for proposed rezoning of property at the northwest corner of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road Extension and Peters Creek Parkway. n t e u I n u n L ?I Ll LETTER OF AUTHORIZATION TO ACT AS AGENT Date: 5/17/06 Project Information S&ME Project Name: West Clemmonsville Road Extension Type of Project: Stream & Wetland Permitting Location: Extending West Clemmonsville Rd. from Old Salisbury Rd. to Peters Creek Pkwy., City of Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina Froparty OwnerlRepresentative Information Business Name: City of Winston-Salem Mailing Address: P.O.

Figure 1, located in the Appendix, shows the location of the Bowen Boulevard re-alignment. The city also proposes to extend Carver School Road from Motor Road to the intersection of Old' Walkertown Road and Carver School Road (city project number 20030). Figure 2 presents the proposed Carver School Road extension. West Clemmonsville Road extension, city project number 95007, would begin at the intersection of Old Salisbury Road and West Clemmonsville Road and continue east to connect at Peters Creek Parkway (NC 150). Figure 3 shows the location of the proposed West Clemmonsville Road alternative. 1.2 Purpose of this Study For this report, the proposed road projects were surveyed for threatened and endangered species. The purpose of this technical report is to inventory, catalog, and describe the various threatened and endangered species for the three projects. This report also describes the anticipated impacts to these resources and recommends measures that will minimize impacts. The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are relevant only in the context of existing design concepts. If design parameters and criteria change, additional field investigations may need to be conducted. 1.3 Data Review Information concerning the occurrence of federal and state protected species in the study area was gathered from the following sources: • US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) list of Forsyth County Endangered Species, Threatened Species, and Federal Species of Concern website (http://nc- es.fws.gov/es/countyfr.htmi) • NC Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database of rare species and unique habitats. 1.4 Field Surveys Pedestrian field surveys were conducted on May 26 and 27, 2003 for the federally listed J u Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 threatened and endangered species. Special attention was given to mature pine stands, streambanks, and wetlands as they are the primary habitats for the threatened and endangered species listed for the project vicinity. 1.5 Investigator Mr. Eric Galamb, who performed the fieldwork and reporting for this project, received a B.S. in Environmental Management, and Biogeography from University of Toronto, and has been working as a professional in the environmental sciences for fifteen years. He has specialized in project management; regulatory agency coordination; wetland and stream permitting; wetland and stream mitigation; wetland and stream mitigation monitoring; wetland determinations and delineations utilizing U.S. Army Corps of Engineer (USACE) methodology; stream assessments utilizing USACE and N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) methodologies; linear corridor studies; environmental constraints mapping; NEPA/SEPA environmental assessments; wildlife surveys; and protected species surveys. He is a Professional Wetland Scientist. 1.6 Definitions Definitions of area descriptions used in this report are as follows: Project Study Area denotes the area bounded by proposed right-of-way limits; Project Vicinity describes an area extending 0.5 miles on all sides of the project study area; and Project Region is equivalent to an area represented by a 7.5 minute USGS quadrangle maps with the project occupying the central position. Q'i a Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Proiccts January 13, 2004 2.0 PROTECTED SPECIES Species with the federal status Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Proposed Endangered (PE), and Proposed Threatened (PT) are protected under provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Any activity permitted, funded, or conducted by a federal agency that may affect a listed species or designated critical habitat requires a consultation with the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The result of the consultation is a written biological opinion of whether the proposed action is likely to result in jeopardy to a listed species or adverse modification of designated critical habitat. Federal species of concern (FSC) is similar to a "watch" list and these species are not afforded protection until they are formally listed as threatened or endangered 2.1 Federally Threatened and Endangered Species There are three federally listed species in Forsyth County and one listed as a species of concern. These are shown in Table 1. A description of the species follows. The results of the threatened 1 and endangered species surveys conducted are discussed in Section 3.

It can be identified by the bright orange spots on either side of the head. It prefers wet meadows, bogs, marshes, and other wetland environments where the ground is soft and light penetrates. Because these habitats tend to be early successional stage areas that are encroached over time by woody material, bog turtle habitat locations change over time. Bog turtles prefer a mosaic habitat including both dry and wet microhabitat such as a wetland area within a meadow (Bog Turtles Slipping Away website, http://sites.state.pa.us/PA_Exec/Fish Boat/sepoct98/bogturtl.htm). The species is threatened from collection for the pet trade, as well as from alteration of the wetland habitat the species requires (USFWS website, http://nc-cs.fws.gov/ es/es.html). The southern population of bog turtle is not threatened, but the species is listed because of the difficulty of differentiating between the northern and southern populations. Red-Cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis), Endangered The red-cockaded woodpecker lives in open stands of southern pines with a minimum age of 80 to 120 years. They most commonly nest in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), but will also use other southern pine species. The birds lay eggs from April through June, with 38 days from egg laying to fledging and several additional weeks before the young become independent. Red- cockaded woodpeckers feed primarily on insects, supplemented by seasonal wild fruit (USFWS website, http://nc-cs.fws.gov/es/es.html). The species' decline is attributed to the loss of pine forests with trees 80 years old or older. Fire suppression has led to the intrusion of hardwood species, further reducing the specialized habitat the species requires (USFWS Endangered Species Program Website, http://endangered.fxvs.gov). Small-Anthered Bittercress, (Cardamine micranthera), Endangered The small-anthered bittercress is a small plant 8-16 inches tall, with small white flowers that bloom in April to May. The leaves are almost square and non-clasping. The plant lives in seepages, wet rock crevices, streambanks, sandbars, and wet woods along small streams. Historically it is known in the Dan River drainage in the northern Roanoke River Basin. L- A s Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Proiects January 13, 2004 Threats to the small-anthered bittercress include agricultural and residential development, impoundment, channelization, exotic weeds, and toxic chemical spills (USFWS website, http://nc-es.fws.gov/es/es.html). Brook Floater, (Alasmidonta varicosa), Federal Species of Concern 0 The brook floater has a fairly small, thin, rhomboidal shaped shell that rarely exceeds 70 mm in length, 40 mm in height, and 30 mm in width. The conspicuous posterior slope is broad and flat to slightly concave, with numerous short, low corrugations radiating toward the posterior margin at right angles to the growth lines. The periostracum is yellowish or brownish with numerous dark green or black rays. The nacre is glossy, bluish white and grades into a pale orange in the umbo area. The hinge teeth are poorly developed. Each valve has one small thin, triangular pseudocardinal tooth and lateral teeth are lacking or vestigial. This species has a bright orange foot (http:/hvww.ncwildlife.org/pg07_WildlifeSpeciesCon/pg7blal_8.htm). This species inhabits medium size streams and rivers. It prefers clean, swift waters with stable gravel, or sand and gravel substrates. However, individuals found near the mouth of the Linville River in North Carolina were observed in sandy/silty substrate in cracks between boulders along a steep bank, in 1 to 3 feet of water and relatively slow current. The brook floater is found in Atlantic Slope river basins from the Savannah River Basin in South Carolina north to the St Lawrence River Basin in Canada. It has also been found in the Greenbrier River (Ohio River Basin) of West Virginia. It is considered more common in the northern part of its range. Distribution by County: Catawba River Basin: Burke Co. (Linville River, Warrior Fork, and Johns River subbasins); Pee Dee River Basin: Surry Co. (Mitchell River Subbasin), Randolph Co. (Caraway Cr. and Little River subbasins), Montgomery Co. (Little River and Barnes Cr. Subbasins); Cape Fear River Basin: Moore Co. (Deep River), Chatham Co. (Rocky River Subbasin); Neuse River Basin: Orange Co. (Eno River Subbasin). 2.2 State Listed Species Species with state designations Endangered, Threatened, or Special Concern are granted protection by the State Endangered Species Act and the State of North Carolina Plant Protection and Conservation Act of 1979. Legal protection under North Carolina state law regulates the possession, propagation, or sale of protected species.

Federal law (under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended) requires that any action likely to adversely affect a species classified as federally protected be subject to review by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Other species may receive additional protection under separate state laws. 3.1.1 Federally Threatened and Endangered Species Surveys were performed on May 26 and 27, 2003 along the proposed road projects for threatened and endangered species listed in the county. The biological conclusion for each of the species is provided below. BOG TURTLE (Clenunys muhlenbergii) BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT No areas with suitable habitat were located for any of the three road projects. Therefore, the proposed projects would not impact the bog turtle. RED-COCKADED WOODPECKER (Picoides borealis) BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Surveys were conducted according to the Guidelines for Preparation of Biological Assessments and Evaluations for the Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Henry, 1989). No suitable nesting habitat in the form of large pine tree stands 80 years or older is present within the project vicinity. Therefore, construction of the three proposed roads is not likely to affect the red-cockaded woodpecker. s Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 SMALL-ANTHERED BITTERCRESS (Cardandne micranthera) BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Surveys for the small-anthered bittercress were conducted, but no individuals were observed. No individuals have been observed in Forsyth County more than 40 years. Additionally, since the three projects are exclusively in the Yadkin River Basin, a basin in which the small-anthered bittercress is not known to occur, it is unlikely that populations of the plant occur along the proposed project corridors. 3.1.2 State Listed Species Formal surveys for state listed species were not conducted nor were individuals of these species observed. 8 Threatened and Endangered Species Technical Report S&ME Job No. 1040-03-793 Three Winston-Salem Road Projects January 13, 2004 4.0 REFERENCES Anonymous.
