Existing Site Conditions
The study area is located in both the piedmont and mountain physiographic regions of North
Carolina. Topography in the project vicinity is characterized by very steep slopes and narrow
ridges. Elevations in the study area range from approximately 980 to 1,280 feet above mean sea
level. Land uses in the project vicinity consist of primarily commercial and residential
interspersed with forested areas between developments and along stream corridors. Based on
information contained in the United States Department of Agriculture Soil Survey data for
Caldwell (1989), Burke (2006), and Catawba (1975) counties, the soils within the study area are
composed of twenty-two soil types.
Waters impacted by this project area are located in the Catawba River Basin (HLTC 03050101,
within subbasin 03-08-32). No Outstanding Resource Waters, High Quality Waters, or Water
Supply Waters (WS-I or WS-II) waters occur within 1.0 mile of the project area. Seven named
streams as well as their unnamed tributaries are located within the impact area of this project
(Table 1).
Wetland and stream determinations within U-4700 were conducted using the field delineation
method outlined in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual and the 2012
Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Supplement. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the North
Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) field verified the wetlands and surface waters
on October I5, 2018.
Gunpowder Creek (11-55-(1.5)) is currently listed on the North Carolina 2016 Final 303(d) list
of impaired waters for having impaired benthos. The only unnamed tributary to this portion of
Gunpowder Creek impacted within the project area is stream SAA within U-4700C and U-
4700CB.
Version 6.15.2017 Page 2

There are no trout waters or watersheds within the project area. Therefore, no moratoria are
required for this project.
The project will not impact any designated Wild and Scenic Rivers or any rivers included in the
list of Study Rivers (Public Law 90-542, as amended).
US 321 is classified as an urban principal arterial from US 70 in Hickory to 2"d Avenue in
Hickory. From 2nd Avenue to Southwest Boulevard in Lenoir, US 321 is classified as a principal
arterial on the Statewide Functional Classification System. The approximately 14 miles of
proposed improvements for US 321 are from its junction with US 70 in Hickory, Catawba
County to the Southwest Boulevard intersection in Lenoir, Caldwell County (see Figure 1).
Catawba, Burke, and Caldwell Counties are located in Western North Carolina in the foothills of
the Appalachian Mountains. Catawba, Burke, and Caldwell Counties are part of the Hickory-
Morganton-Lenoir Metropolitan Statistical Area, the fourth largest MSA in North Carolina. This
MSA has a population of over 300,000 people. The project area starts approximately 1 mile
north of Interstate 40 in a commercial & industrial part of Hickory. The project moves north and
crosses the Catawba River. The project passes through and terminates in a more rural area which
is dotted with businesses, towns, communities, and farmlands.
The Western Piedmont Council of Governments is designated as the Lead Planning Agency for
the Greater Hickory Metropolitan Planning Organization. The Greater Hickory MPO and
NCDOT assist the four counties and 24 municipalities in developing a regional transportation
plan. Planning efforts connect the entire region to develop a cohesive multi-modal transportation
system.
Currently, US 321 is a four-lane highway with a 30-foot grass median and 4-foot paved
shoulders. Median breaks have been provided at intersections and some large driveways. The
existing right of way ranges from 150 to 700 feet in width. The right of way also varies from full
control of access to no control of access. The posted speed limit on US 321 varies from 45 to 55
miles per hour within the project area. The project area contains two interchanges, 12 signalized
intersections, and five grade separations across US 321.
Applicant's Stated Purpose
The purpose of the proposed project is to reduce congestion on US 321 in order to achieve a
level of service (LOS) D or better in the Design Year 2040.
This purpose is based on the applicant's needs, as follows:
� Segments of US 321 between Hickory and Lenoir are currently experiencing congestion
and operate at LOS E and F. Also, a majority of intersections along the project area
currently operate at LOS E and F. In the Design Year (2035), 12 of 13 segments along the
mainline and 16 of 18 intersections are projected to operate at LOS F.

Project Description
NCDOT proposes improvements to include the widening of US 321 from just north of the US 70
interchange in Hickory (Catawba County) to the Southwest Boulevard (SR 1933) interchange in
Lenoir (Caldwell County). The proposed improvements involve approximately 14 miles of
existing US 321 with a majority of the roadway located in Catawba and Caldwell Counties and
0.3 miles in Burke County.
The original limits of Project U-4700 were from US 70 in Hickory to US 64 in Lenoir. The
northern terminus was changed in October 2015 from US 64 to Southwest Boulevard to provide
additional time for the Department and the City of Lenoir to study alternatives at the US 321
with US 64/NC 18-90 intersection. Therefore, the project limits for U-4700 were shortened to �
Southwest Boulevard, a distance of 3.3 miles.
The project will be permitted in phases due to project size, funding and TIP schedule. Table 2
describes the proposed project sections and phasing. Department of the Army authorization for
actual roadway construction is only being considered on Sections CA, CB and CC where final
design has been completed and where all practicable measures to minimize impacts to waters
and/or wetlands have been adopted. The proposed impacts for the remaining Sections A, B, and
C are based on preliminary design. Preliminary design impacts have been calculated using
preliminary slope stakes plus 25'. Work on those sections with preliminary design, as identified
above, will only be authorized after all practicable measures to minimize impacts to jurisdiction
aquatic resources have been adopted. Accordingly, NCDOT will be required to seek
modifications to the existing permit, if issued, in order to commence work on the other sections
of road identified above. Permit modification requests will be submitted as the final design is
completed for each of the remaining sections (A-C) according to the phasing dates provided in
Table 2.

nporary impacts
The applicant provided the following information in support of efforts to avoid and/or minimize
impacts to the aquatic environment: NCDOT has avoided impacting many wetlands and
streams, and reduced impacts to these resources to the greatest extent practicable. Information
regarding the avoidance and minimization efforts with regard to Dwarf Flowered Heartleaf
(DFHL) is detailed in the December 2018 Biological Assessment. Other specific examples of
avoidance and minimization measures include:
• Shifted a U-turn bulb within U-4700CB further south to avoid impacts to a stream and
wetland.
• Selected a 22 and 30-foot median rather than a 46-foot median typical section.
• Added a bridge and increased slopes on the Grace Chapel Flyover ramp at Station 14+98
to minimize stream impacts.
Version 6.15.2017 � Page 5

• Added several retaining walls near Falls Avenue (northbound off-ramp, southbound on-
ramp, and northbound on-ramp) to minimize impacts to both streams and dwarf-flowered
heartleaf.
• Re-aligned the connector road from the Alex Lee Boulevard interchange to Sage Meadow
Circle to avoid stream impacts and minimize property impacts.
• Removed Dudley Shoals Road loop to minimize stream impacts and avoid impacts to
historical resources.
• Slopes at CP2A Hydraulic Sites 3, 5, 6 and 11 will be steepened to minimize stream
impacts.
• Steepened slopes in the vicinity of several populations of DFHL (population numbers 24,
26, 32, 36, 48, and 51) to minimize impacts to these plants.
• Steepened slopes and tightened buffer to avoid impacts to a DFHL conservation area.
• Expressway gutter was added in two locations to minimize impacts to property and a
Duke Energy Substation.
• Best Management Practices will be utilized during construction to attempt to reduce the
stormwater impacts to receiving streams and wetlands due to erosion and runoff.
Compensatory Mitigation
According to the applicant, the project has been designed to avoid and minimize impacts to
jurisdictional areas throughout the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and design �
processes. However, project impacts will necessitate compensatory mitigation to offset
unavoidable functional loss to the aquatic environment. It has been determined that onsite
mitigation is not an option for this project and the North Carolina Division of Mitigation
Services will provide all required mitigation for these sections. Mitigation acceptance letters
were submitted with the permit package for Section A(preliminary design) and Section CB
(final design impacts), however compensatory mitigation will be provided for Sections B and C
after final design is completed.
Cultural Resources
The FHWA is the lead federal agency for this project and, in accordance with Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (NIIPA), is the federal agency responsible for making
determinations and when required, requesting concurrence with these determinations from the
North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). Any adverse effects to historic
resources would be resolved through execution of a memorandum of agreement.
Archaeological and Historic Architectural Resources:
Representatives of the SHI'O, FHWA, and NCDOT met on March 10, 2015 and reached
concurrence on effects to three resources based on the early project design.
Version 6.15.2017 Page 6

• Houck's Chapel (CT0180 —NR)—No Adverse Effect with Commitments
• G. Haywood Hartley House (CW0231 — DE)—No Effect
• James Edgar Broyhill Estate (CW0251 — DE) —No Adverse Effect with Commitments
Following design changes and additional investigations of an expanded study arca, a second
effects consultation on March 20, 2018, established the final findings for the three resources
above and one additional resource:
• Houck's Chapel (CT0180 — NR) — No Effect
• G. Haywood Hartley House (CW0231 —DE)—No Effect
• James Edgar Broyhill F,state (CW0251 — DE) —No Adverse Effect with Commitments
• Julius V. Stirewalt Farm (CW0832 — DE)—No Effect
If a Corps permit is issued for this project, the commitments for a fnding of No Adverse Effect
would be included as a special condition of the permit.
The archaeological survey within the Area of Potential Gffects (APE) was completed on July 24,
2015, and the results showed that none of Che fifteen evaluated sites were determined to be
eligible for the NRHP under any criteria and that no fur[her work was necessary. The SHPO
concurred via letter December 22, 2015. Supplemental archaeological field investigations were
completed on August 3Q 2017 to capture an expanded APE. No new sites were identified.
Endangered Species
The FHWA is the lead federal agency for this project and is the federal agency responsible for
making determinations and requcsting concurrence, when required, with these determinations
from the US Fish and Wildlife Scrvice (USI'WS), in accordance with Section 7(a)(2) ofthe
Endangered Species Act (ESA). Table 5 contains the federally listed threatened and endangered
species for the 3 counties within the project area. It also includes the FHWA's determinations of
effect to these species that would result from implementation of the project.

2— May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect
Below is a summary of species with habitat in the project area:
Northern long-eared bat: A memo documenting that NCDOT has satisfied the 4(d) requirements
for this project with regard to this species was sent to USFWS on November 9, 2017.
Dwarf-flowered heartlea£ Multiple populations of dwarf-flowered heartleaf (DFHL) are present
within the project area and Formal Section 7 Consultation was necessary for this species. A
Biological Assessment (BA) was distributed for comment on November 30, 2018 and was
submitted on December 20, 2018. It is anticipated that the USFWS will issue a Biological
Opinion (BO) concurring with the biological conclusion of "May Affect, Likely to Adversely
Affect" for this species, however the Corps cannot make a permit decision until the consultation
process is complete.
Schweinitz's sunflower: Walking visual surveys of all areas of potential habitat within Catawba
County were conducted in September 2013, October 2015 and September 2018. No individuals
of this species were identified within the project area and there are no known occurrences within
1.0 mile of the project.
Small whorled pogonia: Walking visual surveys of all areas of potential habitat within Burke
County were conducted in June 2009, July 2013, and June 2018. No individuals of this species
were identified within the project area and there are no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the
project.
Version 6.15.2017 Page 8

White Irisette: Walking visual surveys of all areas of potential habitat within Burke County were
conducted in July 2013, and June 2018. No individuals of this species were identified within the
project area and there are no known occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project.
Pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the Corps reviewed the project area, examined
all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest North Carolina Natural
Heritage Database. Based on available information, the Corps agrees that the proposed project
may affect, likely to adversely affect a federally listed endangered or threatened species or their
formally designated critical habitat (Dwarf-flowered heartlea�. Consultation has been initiated
with the USFWS by FHWA and a Biological Assessment was submitted on December 20, 2018,
and as stated above, the Corps will not make a permit decision until the consultation process is
complete.
North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR): The Corps will generally not make a
final permit decision until the NCDWR issues, denies, or waives the state Certification as
required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and
this public notice, combined with the appropriate application fee, at the NCDWR Central Office
in Raleigh constitutes initial receipt of an application for a 401 Certification. A waiver will be
deemed to occur if the NCDWR fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of
receipt of a complete application. Additional information regarding the 401 Certification may be
reviewed at the NCDWR Central Office, Transportation Permitting Unit, 512 North Salisbury
Street, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260. All persons desiring to make comments regarding
