Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project: The bridge will be replaced on the existing alignment. The new bridge Will have no deck drains or direct discharge into Beaverdam Creek. See the stornrvvater management plan for additional minimization measures. 3:1 slopes will be used in wetlands. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: An off -site detour will be used during construction. Best Management Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities will be implemented. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.

Is another Federal agency involved?* r^ Yes r No 5e. Is this a DOT project located within Division's 1-8? r Yes r No C Unknown 5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat? N.C. Natural Heritage Program database, USFWS-Raleigh Field Office website;biological surveys for protected species listed for Cumberland County, which include American alligator, Cape Fear shiner, red -cockaded woodpecker (RCW), Saint Francis satyr butterfly, American chaffseed, MIChau)es sumac, pondberry and rough -leaved loosestrife. All species, except American alligator, Michaux's sumac, pondberry and rough -leaved loosestrife received biological conclusions of "No Effect", due to no habitat being present. A biological conclusion for American alligator is not required due to its listing as Threatened Due to Similarity of Appearance. Habitat for Michaux's sumac, pondberry and rough -leaved loosestrife are present in the study area, but a survey of the suitable habitat was conducted on September 7, 2018 and no specimens were observed. There were no water bodies large enough or sufficiently open to be considered potential feeding sources for the bald eagle, so no survey for the species was required. Concurrence for the NLEB was met through the PBO. Consultation Documentation Upload 6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement) 6a.
