HomeMy WebLinkAbout20190199 Ver 1_17BP10R112 FINAL MCDC - Signed_20190213MINIMUM CRITERIA DETERMINATION CHECKLIST
The following questions provide direction in determining when the Department is
required to prepare environmental documents for state-funded construction and
maintenance activities. Answer questions for Parts A through C by checking either "Yes"
or "No". Complete Part D of the checklist when Minimum Criteria Rule categories #8,
12(i) or #15 are used.
TIP Project No.: N/A
State Project No.: 17BP.10.R.112
Project Location: The proposed project is located on SR 1710 (Allen Road) in Anson
County, North Carolina. The project limits are show on the Study Area Map in the
appendices.
Project Description: Project 17BP.10.R.112 proposes to replace Bridge No. 19 on
SR 1710 (Allen Road) over Cedar Creek in Anson County, North Carolina. The purpose
of the proposed project is to replace a deficient and functionally obsolete bridge. The
latest inspection report, performed in January of 2015, classifies the condition of Bridge
No. 19 as "fair." The bridge replacement will be constructed on the same location and
alignment using an offsite detour. The current bridge is small, and the proposed length of
the new bridge will be approximately 70 feet long. The new bridge will overlap the
existing facility and will be constructed over previously disturbed soils. No new right of
way (ROW) is required, though easements may be required outside of the existing ROW
for construction.
Anticipated Permit or Consultation Requirements: The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) holds the final discretion as to what permit will be required to
authorize project construction. If a Section 404 permit is required, then a corresponding
Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) from the North Carolina Department of
Water Resources (NCDWR) will be also be required. A Nationwide Permit (NWP) 3 and
corresponding WQC 4085 will likely be required.
Consultation with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) may be required
because the USFWS is the regulating authority for Section 7 Biological Conclusions and
as such, it is recommended that they be consulted regarding their concurrence with the
findings of this document.
Waters of the U.S. (WOUS): There appears to be WOUS, including a wetland, in the
project area that may be subject to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC §
1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including the wetland, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified
by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate and reliable. The signed Jurisdictional
Determination (JD) is appended to this checklist.

Endangered Species Act (ESA): As of June 27, 2018, the USFWS lists three federally
protected species under the ESA for Anson County. The Natural Resources Technical
Memorandum (NRTM) is appended to this checklist.
Suitable habitat for the Carolina heelsplitter exists in the study area, so a mussel survey
was performed on September 25, 2018. No freshwater mussel species were found during
the survey, so it was therefore determined that the biological conclusion is "No Effect"
on the Carolina heelsplitter.
Red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) habitat evaluations were conducted on September 5,
2018. While there are a few small pockets of marginal foraging habitat present in the
study area, larger, more cohesive foraging and nesting is not present. A review of the July
2018 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database indicates no known
RCW occurrences within one mile of the study area. It was therefore determined that the
biological conclusion is "No Effect" on the Red-cockaded woodpecker.
Suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower is present within the study area. Therefore,
surveys for Schweinitz's sunflower were conducted on September 5, 2018, and no plants
were found. A review of the July 2018 NCNHP database indicates no known
Schweinitz's sunflower occurrences within one mile of the study area. It was therefore
determined that the biological conclusion is "No Effect" on Schweinitz's sunflower.
Since this project is state-funded, the USACE will act as the lead agency for issues
related to the northern long-eared bat (NLEB). Therefore, Section 4(d) of the ESA does
not apply. The USACE has developed a Standard Local Operating Procedure for
Endangered Species to address NLEB, which NCDOT will follow.
Cultural Resources: There are no recorded archaeological sites or cemeteries within the
Area of Potential Effects (APE). A previous environmental review of the APE did not
result in a recommendation for an archaeological survey. The No Archaeological Survey
Required Form is appended to this checklist.
There are no National Register of Historic Places-listed properties or districts in the
vicinity of the proposed project, and all work will occur in existing ROW. The Historic
Architecture and Landscapes No Survey Required Form is appended to this checklist.
Floodplains: According to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) map
3710648600J effective 8/19/2008, the project is located in Zone AE.
Please see attached documentation:
• Study Area Map (Appendix A)
• Signed Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (Appendix B)
• Natural Resources Technical Memorandum (Appendix C)
• No Archaeological Survey Required Form (Appendix D)
• Historic Architecture and Landscapes No Survey Required Form (Appendix E)

Location description: SR 1710 (Allen Rd.) and Cedar Creek, Anson Countv, North Carolina.
Indicate Which of the Following Applv:
A. Preliminary Determination
� There appear to be waters including wetlands, on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate
and reliable. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation maps, Figures 1-3 dated
8/1/2018. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process, including
determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other
resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all waters and wetlands that
would be affected in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This preliminary
determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part
331). However, you may request an approved JD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further
instruction.
❑ There appear to be waters including wetlands, on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403).
However, since the waters including wetlands, have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination
may not be used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is
merely an effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters including wetlands, at the project area, which
is not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the waters
including wetlands, on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland
delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
❑ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described project area/property subject to the permit
requirements of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for
a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are waters including wetlands, on the above described project arealproperty subject to the permit requirements of Section
404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law ar our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ We recommend you have the waters including wetlands, on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be
able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.
SAW-2018-01899
❑ The waters including wetlands, on your project area/property have been delineated and the delineation has been verified by
the Corps. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated DATE. We strongly
suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once
verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA jurisdiction on your property which, provided
there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years.
❑ The waters including wetlands, have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed by the
Corps Regulatory Official identified below on DATE. Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project arealproperty which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at (252) 808-2808 to deternune their
requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or
placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If you have any questions
regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Ms. Nicholle Brasnennicks at 704-510-0162 or
Nicholle.M.Brasuennicks(�a,usace.armv.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: Basis For Determination: See the preliminary iurisdictional determination
form dated 10/12/2018.
D. Remarks: None.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the particular site
identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation provisions of the Food Security
Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should request
a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, prior to starting work.

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review
area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an
approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an informed decision after having discussed the
various types of JDs and their characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General
Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre- construction notification" (PCN), or
requests verification for a non-reporting NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has
not requested an AJD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit
applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an official
determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the option to request an AJD
before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit
authorization on an AJD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or
different special conditions; (3) the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than
accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant
can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that
permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5)
undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an AJD
constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g.,
signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps
permit authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the review area
affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and waives any challenge to such
jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any
administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD
or a PJD, the JD will be processed as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual
permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be
administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over
aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic
resources in the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is
practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be"
navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the
review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:

Cedar Creek flows to the Pee Dee River, an interstate water of the U.S. Corps of Engineers
regulations at 33 CFR Part 328.3(a)(5) assert Clean Water Act (CWA) jurisdiction over
tributaries to other waters of the U.S. Therefore, Cedar Creek may be a water of the U.S.
Wetland A is adjacent to Cedar Creek. Corps of Engineers regulations at 33 CFR Part
328.3(a)(7) assert CWA jurisdiction over wetlands adjacent to waters of the U.S. Therefore,
Wetland A may be a water of the U.S.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes the replacement of
Bridge No. 19 on SR 1710 (Allen Street) over Cedar Creek in Anson County, NC (Figures
1-2). The following Natural Resources Technical Memorandum (NRTM) has been
prepared to assist in the preparation of a State Minimum Criteria Determination Checklist
(MCDC) in accordance with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
2.0 METHODOLOGY
This investigation was conducted in accordance with the NCDOT Environmental
Coordination and Permitting's (ECAP) Preparing Natural Resources Technical Reports
Procedure and references the latest ECAP NRTR Template (November 2017). Field work
was conducted on January 16, 2018, September 5, 2018, and September 25, 2018. Potential
jurisdictional areas identified in the study area are expected to be verified by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the North Carolina Division of Water Resources
(NCDWR). It is anticipated that the USACE will cover the potential features associated
with this project under a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD). The principal
personnel contributing to the field work and document are provided in Appendix B.
3.0 PROTECTED SPECIES
3.1 Endangered Species Act Protected Species
As of June 27, 2018, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists three federally
protected species, under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), for Anson County (Table 1).
For each species, a discussion of the presence or absence of habitat is included below along
with the Biological Conclusion rendered based on survey results in the study area.
Table 1. ESA federally protected species listed for Anson County
Scientific Name Common Name Federal Habitat Biological
Status Present Conclusion
Lasinigona decorata Carolina heelsplitter E Yes No Effect
Picoides borealis Red-cockaded woodpecker E Yes No Effect
Helianthus schweinitzii Schweinitz's sunflower E Yes No Effect
E — Endangered
Carolina heelsplitter
USFWS optimal survey window: year-round
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat for the Carolina heelsplitter exists within the study area. Therefore,
surveys were completed on September 25, 2018 by Three Oaks biologists Tim
Savidge and Logan Williams. Please see the attached survey report (Appendix C)
for survey details.
October 2018
Natural Resources Technical Memorandum Proiect No. 17BP.10.R.112, Anson Countv, N.C.
Red-cockaded woodpecker
USFWS optimal survey window: year-round; November-early March (optimal)
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) habitat evaluations were conducted on
September 5, 2018. While there are a few small pockets of marginal foraging
habitat present in study area (open to semi-open pine stands 30-60 years in age),
larger, more cohesive foraging and nesting habitat for RCW (open to semi-open
pine stands > 60 years in age) is not present within the study area. Thinned pine
plantations within the study area contain pines < 30 years in age. A review of the
July 2018 NCNHP database indicates no known RCW occurrences within 1.0 mile
of the study area.
Schweinitz's sunflower
USFWS optimal survey window: late August-October
Biological Conclusion: No Effect
Suitable habitat (e.g., dry, clayey, early successional roadsides and utility rights-of-
way) for Schweinitz's sunflower is present within the study area. Therefore,
surveys for Schweinitz's sunflower were conducted on September 5, 2018; no
plants were found. A review of the July 2018 NCNHP database indicates one
known Schweinitz's sunflower occurrence (Element Occurrence [EO] No. 80)
within 1.0 mile of the study area, approximately 1.0 mile away from the project.
Northern long-eared bat
Since this project is state-funded, the USACE will act as the lead agency for issues related
to the northern long-eared bat (NLEB). Therefore 4(d) does not apply. The USACE has
developed a Standard Local Operating Procedure for Endangered Species (SLOPES) to
address NLEB when they are the lead agency, which NCDOT will follow for this project.
The requirements of the SLOPES for NLEB will be completed prior to Let and will be
submitted to USACE. Survey/assessment data will be provided by Three Oaks; additional
project- and design-related information will be provided by Division 10.
3.2 Bald Eagle and Golden Eagle Protection Act
Habitat for the bald eagle primarily consists of mature forest in proximity to large bodies
of open water for foraging. Large dominant trees are utilized for nesting sites, typically
within 1.0 mile of open water.
A desktop-GIS assessment of the project study area, as well as the area within a 1.0-mile
radius of the project limits, was performed on January 15, 2018, using the most currently-
available orthoimagery. No water bodies large enough or sufficiently open to be
considered potential feeding sources were identified. Since there was no foraging habitat
within the review area, a survey of the proj ect study area and the area within 660 feet of
the project limits was not conducted. Additionally, a review of the July 2018 NCNHP
database revealed no known occurrences of this species within 1.0 mile of the proj ect study
area.

4.0 WATER RESOURCES AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 Water Resources
Water resources in the study area are part of the Yadkin — Pee Dee River Basin (U.S.
Geological Survey [USGS] Hydrologic Unit [HUC] 03040104). One potential stream was
identified in the study area (Table 2). The location of this stream is shown on Figure 3.
Table 2. Potential streams in the study area
NCDWR Bank Bankfull
Best Usage Depth
Stream Name Map ID Index Height width
Number Classification �ft) (ft) (in)
Cedar Creek Cedar Creek 13-21 C 15-20 40-60 3-24
There are no Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), High Quality Waters (HQW), Water
Supply Watersheds (WS-I or WS-II), trout waters, designated anadromous fish waters,
Primary Nursery Areas (PNA), or streams listed on the North Carolina 2016 Final 303(d)
list of impaired waters within or within 1.0 mile of the project study area.
No potential surface waters (i.e., tributaries, ponds, or basins) were identified in the study
area.
4.2 Clean Water Act Waters of the U.S.
One potential jurisdictional stream was identified in the study area (Table 3). The location
of this stream is shown on Figure 3. Cedar Creek is depicted as a named blue-line channel
on USGS 7.5' topographic quadrangle mapping. Therefore, an NCDWR stream
identiiication form was not completed. Due to Cedar Creek's high ecological integrity, a
North Carolina Stream Assessment Method (NCSAM) form was also not completed.
Cedar Creek has been designated as a warm water stream for the purposes of stream
mitigation.

One potential jurisdictional wetland was identified within the study area (Table 4). The
location of this wetland is shown on Figure 3. All wetlands in the study area are located
within the Yadkin — Pee Dee River Basin (USGS HUC 03040104). North Carolina
Wetland Assessment Method (NCWAM) forms and USACE wetland determination forms
for the site are included in a separate PJD Package.

4.3 Construction Moratoria
No moratoria are recommended at this time.
4.� N.C. River Basin Buffer Rules
This proj ect is located in the Yadkin — Pee Dee River Basin; therefore, streamside riparian
zones within the study area are not currently protected under provisions of any Riparian
Buffer Rules administered by NCDWR.
4.5 Rivers and Harbors Act Section 10 Navigable Waters
There are no streams within the study area designated by the USACE as a Navigable Water
under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes the replacement of bridge
No. 19 over Cedar Creek on SR 1710 (Allen Street) in Anson County (Appendix A, Figure 1).
The project will impact Cedar Creek of the Yadkin — Pee Dee River Basin. The Federally
Endangered Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) is listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS) for Anson County. The Brook Floater (Alasmidonta varicosa) is being
considered for listing by the USFWS and is also known to occur in Anson County.
Table 1 lists the nearest element occurrence (EO) for the targeted species in approximate river
miles (RM) from the project crossing. Data are from the NC Natural Heritage Program database
(NCNHP 2018) most recently updated in July 2018 (Figure 2).

As part of the federal permitting process that requires an evaluation of potential project-related
impacts to federally protected species, Three Oaks Engineering (Three Oaks) was contracted by
NCDOT to conduct aquatic surveys targeting the Carolina Heelsplitter and Brook Floater.
2.0 WATERS IMPACTED
Cedar Creek is located in the Upper Pee Dee River subbasin (HUC# 03040104) of the Pee Dee
River basin. Cedar Creek flows approximately 5.9 river miles (RM) to its confluence with the
Pee Dee River.
2.1 303(d) Classification
Cedar Creek is not listed on the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ)
- Division of Water Resources 2016 Fina1303(d) list of impaired streams. There are no 303(d)
listed streams within a five-mile radius of the subject bridge (NCDEQ 2016, Figure 3).
2.2 NPDES discharges
There are no NPDES dischargers upstream of the Cedar Creek survey area. There are no
NPDES discharges within a five-mile radius of the subject bridge (USEPA 2018, Figure 3).

3.0 TARGET FEDERALLY PROTECTED SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS
3.1 Lasmigona decorata (Carolina Heelsplitter)
3.1.1. Species Characteristics
The Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), originally described as Unio decoratus by (Lea
1852), synonymized with the Green Floater (Lasmigona subviridis) (Conrad 1835, Johnson
1970), and later separated as a distinct species (Clarke 1985), is a federally Endangered
freshwater mussel, historically known from several locations within the Catawba and Pee Dee
River systems in North Carolina and the Pee Dee, Savannah, and possibly the Saluda River
systems in South Carolina.
The Carolina Heelsplitter is characterized as having an ovate, trapezoid-shaped, un-sculptured
shell. The outer surface of the shell ranges from greenish brown to dark brown in color, with
younger specimens often having faint greenish brown or black rays. The shell's nacre is often
pearly white to bluish white, grading to orange in the area of the umbo (Keferl 1991). The hinge
teeth are well developed and heavy and the beak sculpture is double looped (Keferl and Shelly
1988). Morphologically, the shell of the Carolina Heelsplitter is very similar to the shell of the
Green Floater (Clarke 1985), with the exception of a much larger size and thickness in the
Carolina Heelsplitter (Keferl and Shelly 1988).
Prior to collections in 1987 and 1990 by Keferl (1991), the Carolina Heelsplitter had not been
collected in the 20th century and was known only from shell characteristics. Because of its
rarity, very little information of this species' biology, life history, and habitat requirements was
known until very recently. Feeding strategy and reproductive cycle of the Carolina Heelsplitter
have not been documented but are likely similar to other native freshwater mussels (USFWS
1996). Nearly all freshwater mussel species have similar reproductive strategies; a larval stage
(glochidium) becomes a temporary obligatory parasite on a fish.
Many mussel species have specific fish hosts, which must be present to complete their life cycle.
Until recently, nothing was known about the host species(s) for the Carolina Heelsplitter
(USFWS 1996, Bogan 2002). Starnes and Hogue (2005) identified the most likely fish host
candidates (15 species) based on fish community surveys in occupied streams throughout the
range of the Carolina Heelsplitter. McMahon and Bogan (2001) and Pennak (1989) should be
consulted for a general overview of freshwater mussel reproductive biology.
3.1.2. Distribution and Habitat Requirements
Currently, the Carolina Heelsplitter has a very fragmented, relict distribution. Until recently, it
was known to be surviving in only six streams and one small river (USFWS 1996); however,
recent discoveries have increased the number of known populations to eleven:
Pee Dee River Basin:
1. Duck Creek/Goose Creek — Mecklenburg/Union counties, NC
2. Flat Creek/Lynches River — Lancaster/Chesterfield/Kershaw counties, SC

Catawba River Basin:
3. Sixmile Creek (Twelvemile Creek Subbasin) — Lancaster County, SC
4. Waxhaw Creek — Union County, NC and Lancaster County, SC
5. Cane Creek/Gills Creek — Lancaster County, SC
6. Fishing Creek Subbasin — Chester County, SC
7. Rocky Creek Subbasin (Bull Run Creek/LTT Bull Run Creek/Beaverdam Creek) —
Chester County, SC
Saluda River Basin:
8. Redbank Creek — Saluda County, SC
9. Halfway Swamp Creek — Greenwood/Saluda County, SC
Savannah River Basin:
10. Little Stevens Creek/Mountain Creek/Sleep Creek/Turkey Creek (Stevens Creek
Subbasin) — Edgefield/McCormick counties, SC
11. Cuffytown Creek (Stevens Creek Subbasin) — Greenwood/McCormick counties, SC
Habitat for this species has been reported from small to large streams and rivers as well as ponds.
These ponds are believed to be millponds on some of the smaller streams within the species'
historic range (Keferl 1991). Keferl and Shelly (1988) and Keferl (1991) reported that most
individuals have been found along well-shaded streambanks with mud, muddy sand, or muddy
gravel substrates. However, numerous individuals in several of the populations have been found
in cobble and gravel dominated substrate, usually in close proximity to bedrock outcroppings
(Savidge, personal observations). The stability of stream banks appears to be very important to
this species (Keferl 1991).
3.1.3. Threats to Species
Habitat degradation, water quality degradation, and changes in stream flow (water quantity) are
the primary identified threats to the Carolina Heelsplitter. Specific types of activities that lead to
these threats have been documented by the USFWS in the Recovery Plan, Federal Register and
other publications (USFWS 1996, 2002, 2007, 2012). These specific threats include the
following:
• Siltation resulting from poorly implemented agricultural, forestry, and developmental
activities;
• Golf course construction;
• Road construction and maintenance;
• Runoff and discharge of municipal, industrial and agricultural pollutants;
• Habitat alterations associated with impoundments, channelization, dredging, and sand
mining operations; and
• Other natural and human-related factors that adversely modify the aquatic environment.
Cedar Creek Freshwater Mussel Report October 2018
Three Oaks Job #18-601 Page 3
These threats, alone and collectively, have contributed to the loss of the Carolina Heelsplitter in
streams previously known to support the species (USFWS 2002). In addition, many of the
remaining populations occur in areas experiencing high rates of urbanization, such as the
Charlotte, North Carolina and Augusta, Georgia greater metropolitan areas. The low numbers of
individuals and the restricted range of each of the surviving populations make them extremely
vulnerable to extirpation from a single catastrophic event or activity (USFWS 1996). The
cumulative effects of several factors, including sedimentation, water quality degradation, habitat
modification (impoundments, channelization, etc.), urbanization and associated alteration of
natural stream discharge, invasive species, and other causes of habitat degradation have
contributed to the decline of this species throughout its range (USFWS 1996).
4.0 OTHER TARGET SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS
4.1 Alasmidonta varicosa (Brook Floater)
4.1.1. Species Characteristics
The Brook Floater, described from the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania,
by Lamarck (1819), is a small mussel reaching a maximum size of around 70 mm. The shells of
the Brook Floater are long rhomboid in outline with a yellowish to greenish smooth
perisotracum, which darkens to brown in adults, with green to black rays possible. The ventral
margin can be straight, but is frequently arcuate, especially in older individuals. The posterior
ridge is broad, somewhat inflated, and round. There is a second faint ridge above and together
the posterior ridges end in a biangulate margin. The posterior slope is flat to slightly concave,
usually with numerous short, low corrugations radiating toward the posterior margin. The
umbos are large, a little inflated, projecting little above the anterior margin, and are directed
anteriorly. Each valve has one small thin, triangular pseudocardinal tooth. Lateral teeth are
vestigial or lacking. The nacre is glossy, bluish white, and grades into pale orange in the umbo
cavity. The foot and mantle color are usually bright orange in color.
4.1.2. Distribution and Habitat Requirements
The Brook Floater ranges from the lower St. Lawrence River Basin in Canada south to the
Atlantic drainages of South Carolina. While still common in some areas, the species has
experienced significant declines throughout its range. In North Carolina, it is found in the
Roanoke, Neuse, Cape Fear, Pee Dee and Catawba River basins (Clarke 1981, Adams et al.
1990, Bogan 2002).
According to Ortmann (1919), the Brook Floater is most abundant in small streams with gravelly
bottoms, and prefers strong currents; thus, it is frequently found in and near riffles. Johnson
(1970) stated that the Brook Floater "lives among rocks on gravel substrates; also on sandy
shoals, especially in rapids and riffles of small rivers and creeks". According to Fuller (1977)
the characteristic habitat of the Brook Floater is the sand floors or gravel riffles of small, upland,
rapidly flowing, oxygen-rich streams in upper portions of river systems. Eugene Kefrel in
Adams et al. (1990) noted that the Linville River of the Catawba River Basin population of this
species occurred near the mouth of the Linville River and Lake James. Most of the naiades
collected or observed were found in a sandy or silt substrate in the cracks between medium to
Cedar Creek Freshwater Mussel Report October 2018
Three Oaks Job # 18-601 Page 4
large boulders along a steep bank in 1 to 3 feet of water. Habitat in the Chatuga River of the
Savannah River Basin is described as bedrock crevices in swift rapids (John Alderman, personal
observations). Williams et al. (1993) lists the Brook Floater as Threatened and it is considered
Endangered in NC.
4.1.3. Threats to Species
The cumulative effects of several factors, including sedimentation, point and non-point
discharge, stream modifications (impoundments, channelization, etc.) have contributed to the
decline of this species throughout its range. All of the populations are generally small in
numbers and restricted to short reaches of isolated streams. The low numbers of individuals and
the restricted range of most of the surviving populations make them extremely vulnerable to
extirpation from a single catastrophic event or activity, much like the endangered Dwarf
Wedgemussel (DWM, Alasmidonta heterodon, Strayer et al. 1996). Catastrophic events may
consist of natural events such as flooding or drought, as well as human influenced events such as
toxic spills associated with highways, railroads, or industrial-municipal complexes.
Siltation resulting from substandard land-use practices associated with activities such as
agriculture, forestry, and land development has been recognized as a major contributing factor to
degradation of mussel populations. Siltation has been documented to be extremely detrimental
to mussel populations by degrading substrate and water quality, increasing potential exposure to
other pollutants, and by direct smothering of mussels (Ellis 1936, Marking and Bills 1979).
Sediment accumulations of less than one inch have been shown to cause high mortality in most
mussel species (Ellis 1936). In Massachusetts, a bridge construction project decimated a
population of the DWM because of accelerated sedimentation and erosion (Smith 1981).
Sewage treatment effluent has been documented to significantly affect the diversity and
abundance of mussel fauna (Goudreau et al. 1988). Goudreau et al. (1988) found that recovery
of mussel populations may not occur for up to two miles below points of chlorinated sewage
effluent.
The impact of impoundments on freshwater mussels has been well documented (USFWS 1992a,
Neves 1993). Construction of dams transforms lotic habitats into lentic habitats, which results in
changes in aquatic community composition. The changes associated with inundation adversely
affect both adult and juvenile mussels as well as fish community structure, which could eliminate
possible fish hosts for upstream transport of glochidia. Muscle Shoals on the Tennessee River in
northern Alabama, once the richest site for naiads (mussels) in the world, is now at the bottom of
Wilson Reservoir and covered with 19 feet of muck (USFWS 1992b). Large portions of all of
the river basins within the Brook Floaters's range have been impounded and this could be a
major factor contributing to the decline of the species (Master 1986).
The introduction of exotic species such as the Asian Clam (Corbicula fluminea) and Zebra
Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) has also been shown to pose significant threats to native
freshwater mussels. The Asian Clam is now established in most of the major river systems in the
United States (Fuller and Powell 1973) including those streams still supporting populations of
the Brook Floater. Concern has been raised over competitive interactions for space, food and
Cedar Creek Freshwater Mussel Report October 2018
Three Oaks Job # 18-601 Page 5
oxygen with this species and native mussels, possibly at the juvenile stages (Neves and Widlak
1987, Alderman 1995). The Zebra Mussel, native to the drainage basins of the Black, Caspian
and Aral Seas, is an exotic freshwater mussel that was introduced into the Great Lakes in the
1980s and has rapidly expanded its range into the surrounding river basins, including those of the
South Atlantic slope (O'Neill and MacNeill 1991). This species competes for food resources
and space with native mussels and is expected to contribute to the extinction of at least 20
freshwater mussel species if it becomes established throughout most of the eastern United States
(USFWS 1992b). The Zebra Mussel is not currently known from any river supporting Brook
Floater or the Pee Dee River Basin.
4.1.4. Species Listing
This species was petitioned for federal listing under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973,
as amended within the 2010 Petition to List 404 Aquatic, Riparian and Wetland Species from the
Southeastern United States by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD 2010) and is listed as
Endangered in North Carolina by NCWRC.
5.0 SURVEY EFFORTS
Three Oaks personnel Tim Savidge (Permit # 18-ES0034) and Logan Williams conducted the
survey on September 25, 2018.
5.1 Stream Conditions at Time of Survey: Cedar Creek
The water was running low and clear at the time of the site visit; however, habitat in the
surveyed portion of Cedar Creek appears to have been considerably altered by the recent
flooding associated with tropical storm Florence. Based on wrack lines, it appears that water
levels in the creek were over the bridge. The channel averaged 12 to 18 feet wide for the
majority of the reach; however, there were several areas where the channel was considerably
wider as a result of bank scour. The widest (approximately 35 feet) being the scour pool just
below the bridge. The highly eroded banks were up to 12 feet high and had totally collapsed in
some areas. With the exception of a bedrock outcrop at the downstream extent of the reach, the
substrate consisted of newly deposited loose sand and gravel up to two feet thick. Instream
habitat consists of riffle and run sequences, with numerous pools created by large trees that have
recently fallen into the stream. Water depth ranged from six inches to three feet deep during the
site visit. The channel was bordered by forest on both sides of the stream.
5.2 Methodology
5.2.1. Mussel Surveys
Mussel surveys were conducted from approximately 1,312 feet (400 meters) downstream of the
respective bridge crossing to approximately 328 feet (100 meters) upstream of the crossing for a
total distance of approximately 1,640 feet (500 meters) (Figure 1). Areas of appropriate habitat
were searched, concentrating on the habitats preferred by the target species. The survey team
spread out across the creek into survey lanes. Visual surveys were conducted using bathyscopes.
Cedar Creek Freshwater Mussel Report October 2018
Three Oaks Job #18-601 Page 6
Tactile methods were employed, particularly in streambanks under submerged rootmats. All
freshwater bivalves were recorded and returned to the substrate. If present, the timed survey
efforts would provide Catch Per Unit Effort (CPUE) data for each mussel species encountered.
Additionally, if encountered, relative abundance for freshwater snails and freshwater clam
species was to be estimated using the following criteria:
➢(VA) Very abundant > 30 per square meter
➢(A) Abundant 16-30 per square meter
➢(C) Common 6-15 per square meter

6.0 RESULTS
6.1.1. Mussel Survey Results
No freshwater mussels were found during the 2.0 person-hours of survey time. No other mollusk
species were observed.
7.0 DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS
No freshwater mussel species were found during these surveys. Based on these results, it
appears that freshwater mussels, including the targeted Carolina Heelsplitter and Brook Floater,
do not occur within the surveyed portion of Cedar Creek. Based on these survey results, impacts
to these two species are not anticipated to occur as a result of project construction. Strict
adherence to erosion control standards should minimize the potential for any adverse impacts to
occur to the aquatic community of Cedar Creek. Biological conclusions on potential impacts
from the project to the target species are provided below.
The USFWS is the regulating authority for Section 7 Biological Conclusions and as such, it is
recommended that they be consulted regarding their concurrence with the finding of this
document.
Biological Conclusion Carolina Heelsplitter: No Effect
While the following species is not currently federally protected and biological conclusions are
not necessary at the time of the writing of this report, if this species were to receive federal
protection, the appropriate biological conclusion is as follows:

Project Description:
Replace bridge 19 on SR 1710 (Allen Rd.) over Cedar Creek in Anson County. The Area of
Potential Effects (A.P.E.) is approximately 241 meters (792 ft.) long and 18 meters (60 ft.) wide.
Preliminary design plans show the bridge replacement will not impact any areas outside of the
existing right of way. The project is State-funded and will require Federal permits. No
easements will be required.
SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW
Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions:
The review included an examination of a topographic map, the Anson County soil survey, an
aerial photograph, and listings of previously recorded sites, previous archaeological surveys, and
previous environmental reviews at the Office of State Archaeology (O.S.A.). SR 1710 is
oriented northwest-southeast, but is considered north-south for this review.
The topographic map (Ansonville) shows the A.P.E. is located in a wide stream valley. The
landforms in the A.P.E. are level floodplains on each side of the creek, and the base of a ridge
toe on each side. Level floodplains, if well-drained, have a moderate to high potential for
archaeological sites. The floodplain on both sides of the stream are depicted as wooded, often an
indicator that they are poorly-drained (not suitable for agriculture). Level ridges overlooking
floodplains can have potential for archaeological sites under the right conditions.
The Anson County soil survey shows the soils in the A.P.E. are Chewacla loam (0-2% slopes),
frequently-flooded in the floodplains, and Pinoka-Carbonton complex (2-8% slopes) on the
ridges. Chewacla loam is described as a somewhat poorly-drained soil found on flood plains.
The Pinoka-Carbonton complex is a well-drained soil found on interfluvs, ridges between two
valleys.
The aerial photograph shows that the A.P.E. is wooded. There are no structures along the road.
A review of information at the O.S.A. shows no previously recorded archaeological sites within
or adjacent to the A.P.E. The A.P.E. is not within an areas that have been previously surveyed
for archaeological sites. There are no projects in the A.P.E. that have been reviewed by the State
"No ARCHAEOLOGYSURVEYREQUIRED " form for Minor Transportation Projects as Qualified in the 201 S Programmatic Agreement.

Historic Preservation Office (HPO).
Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably
predicting that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE:
The landforms within the A.P.E. have a low to moderate potential for archaeological sites. The
A.P.E. includes land within the existing right of way.
