1.3 Nature and Sequence of Construction Activity Describe the general scope of the work for the project, major phases of construction, etc:

Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division Office of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), in cooperation with the US Forest Service (USFS), proposes to reconstruct the low water crossing on Gooseneck Road crossing Big Barron Creek. Work will include ditch and roadway approach work on both sides of the low water crossing.

Sequence of Construction:

Phase I Establish Perimeter Controls

Prior to any clearing, grubbing, or excavation, construct perimeter controls to ensure that disturbed sediment does not leave the project site. Perimeter controls include silt fence and other specified measures.

Phase II Intermediate Controls

Install silt fence in areas as shown.

Apply temporary turf establishment in disturbed areas that will remain exposed for over 14 calendar days within 7 days. Apply permanent turf establishment to the finished slopes according to Section 625.

At the end of each day’s grading operations, shape earthwork to minimize and control erosion from storm runoff.

Provide silt fence around all stockpiled excavated roadway material. Apply temporary turf establishment to stockpiles remaining in place longer than 14 days within 7 days of stockpiling.

Phase III Final Construction / Stabilization

After completion of trail construction, do the following as directed by the CO:

Finish grading and apply permanent turf establishment to any remaining disturbed areas.

Where necessary, replace eroded topsoil and re-apply permanent turf establishment to disturbed areas where vegetation has not established.

Remove silt fence only after all upslope areas are stabilized and vegetation is well established.

Remove all other perimeter controls when directed by the CO.

What is the function of the construction activity?

Residential Commercial Industrial Road Construction Linear Utility

Other (please specify): Hiking trail construction

Estimated Project Start Date:

Estimated Project Completion Date:

1.4 Soils, Slopes, Vegetation, and Current Drainage Patterns Soil type(s):

Wilderness gravelly silt loam, 15-30% slopes: soil unit has a typical upper profile with an A horizon, 0-6”, gravelly silt loam; E horizon, 6-11”, gravelly silt loam; and Bt1 horizon, 11-25”, extremely gravelly silt loam. The depth to water table of this soil unit is 12-24” with a restrictive fragipan at 15-29 inches.

Goss very cobbly silt loam, 15-50% slopes, extremely stony: soil unit has a typical soil profile with an A horizon, 0-3”, very cobbly silt loam; E horizon, 3-9”, very gravelly silt loam; and a 2Bt horizon, 9-79”, very cobbly clay. The depth to water table or any restrictive feature is more than 80 inches.

Caneyville silt loam, 15-20% slopes, stony: soil unit has a typical upper soil profile with an Oi horizon, 0-1”, slightly decomposed plant material; A horizon, 1-4”, silt loam; Bt1 horizon, 4-11”, silty clay; and a Bt2 horizon, 11-34”, silty clay. The depth to water table of this soil unit is more than 80”, and the depth to lithic bedrock ranges from 20-40 inches. None of these soil units are listed on the Ste. Genevieve County hydric soils list.

1.5 Construction Site Estimates The following are estimates of the construction site.

Construction site area to be disturbed

1.18 acres

1.6 Receiving Waters Stormwater runoff will discharge from the project sites as sheetflow.

Description of receiving waters: Big Barron Creek (not impaired)

1.7 Site Features and Sensitive Areas to be Protected The project is located in Mark Twain National Forest. Care must be taken to minimize erosion and sedimentation throughout construction.

1.8 Potential Sources of Pollution Potential sources of sediment to stormwater runoff:

Clearing and grubbing Excavation and grading

Vehicle tracking

Topsoil stripping and stockpiling

To be updated by Contractor.

Potential pollutants and sources, other than sediment, to stormwater runoff:

Staging Areas: storage of construction equipment and materials Construction Activity: ground disturbance associated with trail work, trash, gasoline and diesel fuel from equipment use and refueling.

To be updated by Contractor.

1.9 Endangered Species Certification Are endangered or threatened species and critical habitats on or near the project area?

Yes

Describe how this determination was made:

Consultation was completed with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.

If yes, describe the species and/or critical habitat:

The action will have no effect on the following species: Gray Bat, Ozark Hellbender, and Hine’s Emerald Dragonfly. The action may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect, the following species: Indiana Bat, Northern Long-Eared Bat.

There is no critical Habitat. Additional documentation, including the Fish and Wildlife Service’s concurrence dated October 17, 2019, is available from FHWA upon request.

If yes, describe or refer to documentation that determines the likelihood of an impact on identified species and/or habitat and the steps taken to address that impact. (Note, if species are on or near your project site, EPA strongly recommends that the site operator work closely with the appropriate field office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or National Marine Fisheries Service. For concerns related to state or tribal listing of species, please contact a state or tribal official.)

1.10 Historic Preservation Are there any historic sites on or near the construction site?

Yes

No

Describe how this determination was made:

The USFS completed surveying for Section 106. Consultation was completed with the State Historic Preservation Office.

If yes, describe or refer to documentation that determines the likelihood of an impact on this historic site and the steps taken to address that impact.

On June 15, 2019, the Missouri SHPO concurred with the Forest Service’s finding of no historic properties affected.

SECTION 2: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL BMPS

2.1 Minimize Disturbed Area and Protect Natural Features and Soil Ground disturbance will be limited to the areas shown within the Limits of Disturbance (LOD) line on the project plans. See attached project plans.

2.2 Phase Construction Activity

In disturbed areas that will remain exposed for over 14 calendar days, temporary turf establishment will be applied within 7 days. Permanent turf establishment will be applied to the finished slopes according to Section 625. At the end of each day’s grading operations, earthwork will be shaped to minimize and control erosion from storm runoff. A sequence of construction activities is provided in Section 1.3.
