V. PROJECT DEFINITION
A. BACKGROUND The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) maintains an existing salt storage capacity of about 165,000 tons. For a typical 24 hour winter event, the NJDOT uses about 19,800 tons, or 12 percent, of their salt inventory. This means that the NJDOT can handle about 8 winter events without salt replenishment. It takes about 3 to 5 days to replenish the salt from one event. Recent winters have had as many as 26 winter events. Salt inventories have, at times, been dangerously low and obtaining more salt from other sources has been a challenge. As a result, the NJDOT created a plan to build salt storage depots at three sites to ensure a reliable supply of salt for the north, central and south regions of the state. Each site will store up to 50,000 tons of salt and almost double the existing storage capacity. This project will examine the feasibility of constructing a salt storage depot for the northern region along Route 24 in Florham Park. The site is at the location of an abandoned clover leaf interchange with a road once named Tri-Borough Road that was going to be part of the southern extension of the Eisenhower Parkway. It was cleared and graded in the 1970’s but construction stopped due to environmental and budgetary concerns. There is a bridge that may be usable to facilitate access to the north and southbound sides of Route 24. See Exhibit ‘B’ and ‘C’ for the project site location.
B. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE 1. Fabric Covered Salt Structure:
The NJDOT is proposing to construct a fabric covered structure at the site capable of storing up to 50,000 tons of salt. A fabric covered structure that stores 8,000 tons of salt has been built at the NJDOT West Trenton Maintenance Yard and is shown in Exhibit ‘D’ as an example. 2. Truck Scale:
The above-ground scale system shall be 11 feet wide by 70 feet long and utilize hydrostatic load cells for weighing. The scale system shall be constructed on concrete piers to elevate it off of the ground so that it can be cleaned underneath. The area under the scale shall also contain a concrete slab for easy cleaning. Concrete approach ramps shall be constructed before and after the scale system with a 10 foot minimum flat concrete transition area between the top edge of the ramp and the scale. See Exhibit ‘E’ for an example.
PROJECT NAME: Feasibility Study PROJECT LOCATION: NJDOT Proposed Florham Park Winter Yard PROJECT NO: T0563-01 DATE: August 15, 2016
PAGE 8
3. Scale House: The above-ground scale system shall also include a scale house for the truck scale operators and scale equipment. The scale house shall be a permanent structure with electricity, heat and rest room facilities. See Exhibit ‘F’ for an example. 4. Storage Building: The storage building shall be a four-bay structure with a minimum width of 60 feet and a minimum depth of 44 feet. This building will be used for the storage of two loaders and some garage work space. See Exhibit ‘G’ for an example. 5. Emergency Power Generator:
An emergency power generator to back-up the entire facility, including new lighting and other electrical equipment will be required. The new emergency generator shall be in an environmentally safe enclosure. 6. Environmental Review: The DOT conducted an environmental review, including wetlands, flood hazard, historical constraints, threatened and endangered species, and storm water management of the site. See Exhibit ‘H’. There appears to be wetlands within the center of each cloverleaf. An Environmental Impact Statement will be required as per Executive Order No. 215. 7. Historic Screening:
The site has been screened by DOT using GIS data obtained from NJDEP’s website. The site was screened for the presence of historic fill, historic properties, historic districts, and archaeological sites. Based upon review of NJDEP’s current GIS data, there are no historic properties, historic districts, or archaeological sites within the boundaries of, or immediately adjacent to the proposed locations of the salt structure. The proposed location is, however, situated within a large area of historic fill. The Historic Maps Layer indicates the area was once covered by wetlands. The fill was likely placed in order to level the ground during roadway construction. According to the NJDEP GIS website, “…historic fill is non-indigenous material placed on a site in order to raise the topographic elevation of the site. No representation is made as to the composition of the fill or presence of contamination in the fill.” Due to the unknown composition of the fill and the potential presence of contamination, soil sampling is recommended. See Exhibit ‘I’ for site photos.

VI. FEASIBILITY STUDY RESPONSIBILITIES
A. PROPOSED SITE LAYOUT AND IMPROVEMENTS
1. General: The Consultant shall conduct a feasibility study to determine and identify all pertinent and/or applicable issues affecting the proposed construction. The study shall include possible locations for these functions, circulation patterns, identify all necessary site improvements and provide cost estimates. The Consultant shall conduct interviews with the Client Agency to fully understand the site operations and required circulation pattern. The Consultant shall provide a proposed site layout identifying where the improvements can be located based on the information obtained from the site investigation and Agency interviews.
2. Site Survey: Conduct all necessary surveys on both sides of Route 24 including, but not limited to: topographical, utilities, high water line, floodplain delineation, wetlands delineation and any, and all, other features necessary to obtain all required approvals. Obtain all field measurements and record all data necessary to provide an accurate boundary survey to determine the property lines of the site. Show datum, benchmark, and north arrow in relation to the property lines. Benchmarks must be well defined and described. Determine the extent of any easements or encroachments and show the limitations imposed on the property by the State or Local regulations. Include in the survey the bridge over Route 24 and Route 24 itself where appropriate for ingress and egress information. Include any utility and storm drainage structures previously placed onsite. 3. Proposed Site Layout: The Consultant shall determine the buildable footprint. Determine the size and dimensions required for a fabric covered salt structure with the capability of storing up to 50,000 tons of salt. See Exhibit ‘D’ for an example. The salt storage structure, scale and scale house, storage building and generator shall be located on a proposed site layout. Different options may be presented. The Consultant shall explore all possibilities to accommodate the Client’s needs. Should the construction of a new facility not be possible due to site restrictions or other factors, then
PROJECT NAME: Feasibility Study PROJECT LOCATION: NJDOT Proposed Florham Park Winter Yard PROJECT NO: T0563-01 DATE: August 15, 2016
PAGE 10
modifications to the size and storage capacity of the salt storage structure may be suggested. The Consultant shall provide construction cost estimates for all recommendations. 4. Site Improvements:

• Wetlands/Streams Based on NJDEP-NJ-Geo Web (2012), the 2007 freshwater wetland map there are the various types of wetlands and riparian present on Rte. 24 east and west bound proposed sites that are of concern for regulatory purposes before project proceeds to construction. SEE MAP BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS
• Watershed Management Area Watershed Management Area 6 - Upper and Mid Passaic, Whippany, Rockaway *A watershed is the area of land that drains into a body of water such as a river, lake, stream or bay. It is separated from other systems by high points in the area such as hills or slopes. It includes not only the waterway itself but also the entire land area that drains to it. For example, the watershed of a lake would include not only the streams entering the lake but also the land area that drains into those streams and eventually the lake. Drainage basins generally refer to large watersheds that encompass the watersheds of many smaller rivers and streams.
SEE MAP BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS
• Flood Zone There are two possible proposed site locations for the salt structures. A portion of the proposed location of Rte. 24 westbound lies within Florham Township, FEMA’s Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Panel no. 34013C0069F mapped Zone AE - the floodway is the channel of a stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance flood can be carried without substantial increases in flood heights. The remaining portions of the proposed site locations are within Chatham and Florham Townships, is FEMA FIRM Panel no. 34040003C mapped Zone X -area determined to be outside the 500-year flood plain. SEE FEMA FIRM MAP BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS
• Threatened and Endangered Species Based on NJDEP-NJ-Geo Web (2012), there are Foraging Great Blue Heron- NJ Status-Special Concern throughout the proposed locations. As a follow-up to DEP, the US Fish and Wildlife Service (US F&W) IPaC was used as reference source. The findings indicate that there are no critical habitats on site. The species list identifies threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species that may occur in your proposed action area and/or may be affected by your proposed project. This is an unofficial list species list for informational purposes only, and does not

fulfill the requirements under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. An online request was made to US F&W local office to obtain an Official Species List. SEE MAP BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS
• Stormwater Management N Follow the NJDEP Stormwater Management Rules if applicable to project should
disturbance of one acre or more of development, and/or an increase of impervious surfaces are planned.
Recommendations To schedule a Pre-Application meeting with DEP’s Land Use Regulation Program to determine if permits/approvals are needed for the proposed work.

Refuges Any activity proposed on National Wildlife Refuge lands must undergo a 'Compatibility Determination' conducted by the Refuge. If your project overlaps or otherwise impacts a Refuge, please contact that Refuge to discuss the authorization process.
Refuge data is unavailable at this time.

Wetlands Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats from your project may be subject to regulation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, or other State/Federal Statutes.
Project proponents should discuss the relationship of these requirements to their project with the Regulatory Program of the appropriate U.S. Army Corps of Engineers District.
DATA LIMITATIONS The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.
DATA EXCLUSIONS Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.
DATA PRECAUTIONS Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.
Wetland data is unavailable at this time.
