Erosion and sedimentation control measures will be installed. Bridge demolition will include the removal of the bridge deck and the removal of the piers and the top portion of the bridge
abutments, leaving the footer and approximately one foot of the masonry abutment to match the excavation elevation and temporary impacts to 80 linear feet to Dutch Buffalo Creek
may result. Bridge replacement construction using heavy equipment from the upland roadway approaches. No deck drains are proposed on the bridge and runofffrom the bridge will be
routed to catch basins located at each quad of the bridge and discharged to the stream floodplain. The proposed bridge will be built on the same alignment with a temporary off -site
detour.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Replace bridge in -place was incorporated to minimize impacts. The bridge span length was e:Qended to avoid impacts. Riprap protection of the bridge
abutments is being placed outside of the jurisdictional stream boundary of the perennial stream (aka, Dutch Buffalo Creek) where possible to avoid
impacts. Work will be conducted from the upland roadway approaches.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
NCDOT Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities will be employed. Demolition and construction methods from the
upland roadway approaches will be used to minimize potential temporary demolition related impacts and avoid construction related impacts.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State

2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
r Yes r No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
Minimal temporary impacts of 80 linear feet to Dutch Buffalo Creek may occur and no part of the stream bed will be impacted.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
r Yes r No
If no, explain why:

2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?*
r Yes r' No
Comments:
Stormwater runoff from the proposed bridge Wil be routed to catch basins on all quadrants of the bridge. No deck drains are proposed. Please see attached Stormwater Management
Plan for details on the minimization of water quality impacts.
