4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
Replacement of existing rawwater transmission mains is a critical need for the City of Elizabeth City. In particular, an existing 10 -inch transmission main, installed over 80 years ago, has
suffered from multiple breaks per year. In addition, the main had an unsafe installation and was barely capable of adequate water supply. Due to funding constraints, the project was
divided into two phases. Phase I was constructed in 2012. The proposed Phase II completes the project.
41. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The overall project (Phase I and II) was designed by Hyman & Robey, PC in 2011. The total scope of work included the installation of 13,760 linear feet of 14" PVC pipe by open cut
trenching and 1,175 linear feet of 16" HDPE pipe by horizontal directional drilling to connect the well field reservoir to the existing Water Treatment Plant.
Phase 1 of the project was completed in 2012. The proposed Phase II will tie the proposed 14" transmission main into the existing 14" transmission main on the east side of the wellfield
driveway and generally run along the southern side of Wellfield Road and West Main Street Extension rights-of-way. At the eastern end of the project, the transmission main with cross
West Main Street Extension through a bored casing pipe roughly 470 linear feet east of the Jessup Street intersection. This line will connect to the existing 14" PVC C-900 installed
during Phase 1. The scope of work includes approximately 100 linear feet of casing pipe to be installed by jack and bore under Forest Park Drive and the restoration of the roadside
ditches, driveways, roadway surfaces, and other items disturbed by the construction. Indirect impacts could include noise, dust, traffic delays, and minor erosion during construction.
These impacts will be mitigated by following all local, state, and federal regulations. The project replaces an existing water line, so no new development is expected as a result of the
project. it is anticipated heavy excavation equipment and dump trucks will be required for the project work.

4 Unknown
7b. If yes, explain.
The overall project (Phase I and 11) was designed by Hyman & Robey, PC in 2011. The project includes the replacement of approximately 7,980 linear feet of 10 -inch cast iron pipe
which transfers groundwater from the City's well field to the water treatment plant. The existing 10 -inch pipe is more than 50 years old and will be replaced with 14 -inch polyvinyl chloride
(PVC) pipe. This project is Phase II of a two-phase project to replace the entire length of the raw water line, which will complete the overall replacement project. The completed Phase I
consists of two separate segments — the eastern segment terminates near the intersection of Wellfield Road and Azalea Trail, and the western segment terminates near the intersection
of West Main Street Extension and Jessup Street. The proposed Phase II project replaces the remaining portion with a new line along the southern side of West Main Street Extension
and Wellfield Road. The voter line will be installed entirely within existing NCDOT
rights-of-way, existing utility easements, and on City property.
Are any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual permits(s) used, or intended to be used, to authorize any part of the proposed project or related activity?

RE: Raw Water Transmission Replacement Project
City of Elizabeth City, Pasquotank County, North Carolina
Scoping Request
Dear Mr. Ellis:
The City of Elizabeth City is in the process of performing an environmental review pursuant to
the National Environmental Policy Act for the CDBG Infrastructure program in order that it may
assess the environmental impacts of the above referenced project in Pasquotank County, NC.
Please find enclosed figures which include a project location map and other supporting
documentation. McGill Associates, P.A. is requesting comments from your office regarding
potential Threatened and Endangered Species issues or other concerns relating to this project.
The proposed City of Elizabeth City Raw Water Transmission Replacement will replace an aged
well field raw water transmission line. The project includes the replacement of approximately
7,980 linear feet of 10 -inch cast iron pipe which transfers groundwater from the City's well field
to the water treatment plant. The existing 10 -inch pipe is more than 50 years old and will be
replaced with 14 -inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. This is Phase II of a two-phase project to
replace the entire length of the raw water line, which will complete the overall replacement
project.
As part of the process, we are requesting your assistance in gathering information regarding
Federally -listed species, critical habitat, and migratory birds from your office. We request a list
of any Federally -listed or proposed threatened or endangered species and designated or proposed
critical habitat that may be present in the project area. In addition, please advise us of any
present concerns you may have related to possible effects of the project on such species or
critical habitat, as well as any other wildlife concerns. If additional information or studies are
needed let me know. We look forward to your comments on this matter and respectfully ask for
a response within 30 days to adhere to the project schedule.
If you have any questions, please free to contact me at our office phone number of (828) 386-
1920 or my email address jonathan.herman@mcgillengineers.com.

Re: Elizabeth City Raw Water Transmission Replacement — Pasquotank County, NC
Dear Mr. Herman:
This letter is to inform you that the Service has established an on-line project planning and
consultation process which assists developers and consultants in determining whether a
federally -listed species or designated critical habitat may be affected by a proposed project. For
future projects, please visit the Raleigh Field Office's project planning website at
https://www.fws.gov/rdleimh/pp.html. If you are only searching for a list of species that may be
present in the project's Action Area, then you may use the Service's Information, Planning, and
Consultation System (IPaC) website to determine if any listed, proposed, or candidate species
may be present in the Action Area and generate a species list. The IPaC website may be viewed
a£"https:Hecos.fws.gov/ii5ac/. The IPaC web site contains a complete and frequently updated list
of all endangered and threatened species protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)(Act), a list of federal species of concern' that
are known to occur in each county in North Carolina, and other resources.
Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non-federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally -listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation maybe
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally -protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
' The term "federal species of concern" refers to those species which the Service believes might be in need of
concentrated conservation actions. Federal species of concern receive no legal protection and their designation does
not necessarily imply that the species will eventually be proposed for listing as a federally endangered or threatened
species. -However, we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid or minimize adverse impacts to
federal species ,of concem.. ,
evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes.
If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally -listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys.
If you determine that the proposed action may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect) a federally -protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect (i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.
With regard to the above -referenced project, we offer the following remarks. Our comments are
submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with, provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed
action is not likely to adversely affect any federally -listed endangered or threatened species, their
formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at
these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the Act have been satisfied for
your project. Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be
reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect
listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2) this action is
subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or, (3) a new species
is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action.
However, the Service is concerned about the potential impacts the proposed action might have
on aquatic species. Aquatic resources are highly susceptible to sedimentation. Therefore, we
recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid adverse impacts to aquatic species,
including implementing directional boring methods and stringent sediment and erosion control
measures. An erosion and sedimentation control plan should be submitted to and approved by
the North Carolina Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section prior to construction.
Erosion and sedimentation controls should be installed and maintained between the construction
site and any nearby down -gradient surface waters. In addition, we recommend maintaining
natural, vegetated buffers on all streams and creeks adjacent to the project site.
The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has developed a Guidance Memorandum (a
copy can be found on our website at (http://www.fws.gov/raleigh) to address and mitigate
secondary and cumulative impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources and water quality.
2
We recommend that you consider this document in the development of your projects and in
completing an initiation package for consultation (if necessary).
We hope you find our web page useful and informative and that following the process described
above will reduce the time required, and eliminate the need, for general correspondence for
species' lists. If you have any questions or comments, please contact John Ellis of this office at
(919) 856-4520 ext. 26.
