Documentation of FHWA Review and Final Categorical Exclusion Environmental Document Form EQ-104 (Revised 05/07/09) TO: FHWA FROM: Nick Froelich DATE: 10/05/15 CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION (CE) Date CE level document approved by VA FHWA Division: 11/17/2014 FHWA Contact: John Simkins Route: 10 (W Hundred Road) Route Type: Primary Project Type: Construction State Project Number: 0010-020-R44 Federal Project Number: RSTP-5A27(176) UPC: 102952 From: 0.09 mile West of Route 1 (Jefferson Davis Highway) To: Interstate 95 (I-95) County/City: Chesterfield County District / Residency: Richmond/Chesterfield Project in STIP: Yes Project in Long Range Plan: Yes No N/A Project Outside of MPO Area Next Phase of Funding Available: Yes No Project Description: The proposed improvements would total approximately 2,500 linear feet and would generally involve the widening of Route 10 (W. Hundred Road) from four lanes divided to six lanes divided between Jefferson Davis Highway (Route 1/301) and Interstate 95 (I-95). The project would also include the addition of left and right turn lanes, sidewalk, curb and gutter, storm sewer, traffic signal, pavement markings, signs, and maintenance of traffic. Offset credits would be purchased from a nutrient bank to achieve stormwater quality requirements. The majority of the project area is included in the drainage area for Chesterfield County’s Route 10/I-95 Regional BMP located in the southeast quadrant of the I-95 and Route 10 Interchange. The storm system to the BMP from the eastern project terminus has been verified to be able to handle the increased stormwater from the project. A small portion of the project area(s) flows to the south and west. The storm sewer systems were verified to their ultimate outfall to be sure the man- made conveyances (i.e. storm sewer systems) were adequate. The flow to these outfalls was either decreased or deemed a negligible increase. Project figures are contained in Attachment A. The purpose of the proposed project is to improve traffic operations and safety within the project corridor, and connect traffic on Interstate 95 with commercial, residential and industrial land uses along the Route 10 and Route 1 corridors. Improved traffic operations would be achieved through the provisions of additional roadway capacity and implementation of access management techniques. Safety improvements would be achieved by reducing conflict points and crashes (left-turn movements at median crossovers and congestion related at signalized intersections and crossovers). Currently, traffic volumes within the corridor fall in the range between a 4-lane divided and 6-lane divided typical section. It is anticipated that traffic volumes and corridor congestion will increase from area 1 Form EQ-104 (Revised 05/07/09) development and regional development impacts. In addition, corridor capacity is limited by turning movements at the driveways and crossovers (conflict points) and weaving movements. CE Category 23 CFR 771.117: (d)(13) Description of CE Category: Actions described in paragraphs (c)(26), (c)(27), and (c)(28) of this section that do not meet the constraints in paragraph (e) of 23 CFR 771.117. USGS Map Attached Yes Logical Termini and Independent Utility: Yes N/A (For Non-highway construction only, explain in comments below) Comments: The proposed improvements address identified needs to improve traffic operations and safety between 0.09 mile west of the intersection of Route 10 and Jefferson Davis Highway (Route 1/301) to the west and to I-95 interchange southbound ramps to the east. These improvements can be made independent of other improvements along Route 10 and still improve traffic operations and safety within the project corridor. Typical Section: The typical section for the proposed project would consist of a six lane divided urban arterial with three 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction with the inside lanes having an additional 1 foot shy distance from the curb, a 22-ft width median, a 2.5-ft wide curb and gutter, and 5-foot wide sidewalks on either side located within a variable width right-of-way ranging from approximately 90 feet to 180 feet. Structures: There are no bridges or large diameter culverts associated with the project. PRESENT IMPACTS SOCIO-ECONOMIC YES NO YES NO Minority/Low Income Populations Disproportionate Impacts to Minority/Low Income Populations: Yes No Existing or Planned Public Recreational Facilities Source: Census data (U.S. Census Bureau, 2010); Chesterfield County Comprehensive Plan, amended April 15, 2015; Chesterfield County Bikeways and Trails Plan (draft April 2015); preliminary project plans; preliminary right of way data sheets Community Services Source: Chesterfield County Comprehensive Plan, adopted October 24, 2012; Chesterfield County GIS Data (http://citizengis.chesterfield.gov/) Consistent with Local Land Use: Yes No Source: Chesterfield County Comprehensive Plan, amended April 15, 2015 Existing or Planned Bicycle/Pedestrian Facilities: Source: Chesterfield County Bikeways and Trails Plan (draft April 2015); preliminary project plans 2 Form EQ-104 (Revised 05/07/09) Comments: Population demographics are available from the U.S. Census Bureau for Chesterfield County from the 2010 Census. Poverty data was obtained from the American Community Survey (ACS) through the U.S. Census Bureau for 5-year averages for census tracts located within the project corridor. The project corridor traverses census tract 1004.09 and 1005.05 and block groups 1 and 4 within tract 1004.09 and block group 3 within tract 1004.09. Figure 4 within Attachment A depicts the project corridor, census tracts and block groups. Population demographic data for the project area is summarized in Table 1 within Attachment B. According to the 2010 Census, the population of Chesterfield as a whole is composed of 68 percent white and 32 percent minority groups. Block group 3 within census tract 1005.05 has a higher minority population, block group 4 within tract 1004.09 has a higher Hispanic or Latino origin populations, and tract 1004.09 has a higher percent of the population below the poverty line than Chesterfield County as a whole. However, there are no residential properties within the project corridor and no business relocations or full property acquisitions are proposed as part of the project. It is anticipated that right-of-way would be required from two parcels – 0.053 ac from 2611 W Hundred Road (Parcel 002) and 0.019 ac from 12500 Jefferson Davis Highway (Parcel 003.) located at the southwest quadrant of the intersection of Route 10 and Jefferson Davis Highway. The right-of-way acquisition is limited to parcel frontage along Route 10. No minority or low-income populations have been identified that would be adversely impacted by the proposed project. Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of E.O. 12898 and FHWA Order 6640.23, no further Environmental Justice analysis is required. In addition, the proposed project would improve the transportation corridor by enhancing traffic capacity, improving safety, and providing for pedestrian access (sidewalks). A Maintenance of Traffic plan will be prepared to ensure there are no disruptions to emergency services during construction. It is anticipated that two lanes of traffic will be maintained throughout construction. At times where only one lane of traffic can be maintained work would occur during the night.

  • The Rendezvous Apartments Hopewell, Virginia
    Market Analysis The Rendezvous Apartments Hopewell, Virginia Prepared for: Mr. Tarvaris McCoy Hopewell Redevelopment & Housing Authority March, 2021 S. Patz and Associates, Inc. 46175 Westlake Drive, Suite 400 Potomac Falls, Virginia 20165 1 March 15, 2021 Mr. Tarvaris J. McCoy Chief Development Officer Hopewell Redevelopment and Housing Authority 350 E. Poythress Street Hopewell, VA 23860 Tarvaris: Attached is our full, narrative market study of the proposed new construction, 64- unit, The Rendezvous Apartments, to be built in the central portion of the City of Hopewell and within close proximity to the downtown area of Hopewell, as well as to nearby commercial, government, schools, parks and other public amenities for new residents. Once built, The Rendezvous Apartments will have rent and income restrictions, but no age restrictions. The Rendezvous Apartments will be unique in that all 64 apartment units will be project-based Section 8 rents, with rents at or below 30 percent of resident incomes. This will also be the newest and best designed apartment property in the City, as well as an attractively located one. However, the apartment proposal needs to be evaluated based on the ability to rent units, if the Section 8 rent restrictions are removed. The report does that and shows full market support for the 64-unit apartment proposal for residents who do not need rental assistance. The detailed market data that support these findings and conclusions are presented in the attached report. All detailed and economic and market data that support our report findings are included. Please call if additional data or clarification are needed.

  • CHAPTER 8:HISTORICAL and CULTURAL RESOURCES Overview a Brief History of Chesterfield County
    CHAPTER 8: HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES Overview Chesterfield County enjoys the distinction of being an area with one of the longest periods of continuous habitation in the country. In looking towards the future, it is important to understand, and to appropriately preserve and promote the county’s rich historical and cultural foundation. Not only can students experience hands-on learning at these historic sites, but Chesterfield County can also increase local business development through tourism. DESIRED OUTCOMES OF THIS CHAPTER: • Preservation of Historic Places and Structures • Leverage Historic Assets to Create a Sense of Place and Foster Tourism • Support Partnerships and Private Preservation of Historic Resources • Utilize Historic Places for Events, Education and Other Unique Experiences A Brief History of Chesterfield County The county was originally inhabited by the Appamatuck Tribe, one of many tribes ruled by Chief Wahasonacock. In 1611, Sir Thomas Dale led a group of colonists from the original English settlement at Jamestown to the “Citie of Henricus” located on Farrar’s Island. In 1613, Dale seized various lands around the area where John Rolfe cultivated a salable variety of tobacco for English export for the Virginia Company of London. Tobacco became the colony’s main export and source of revenue. In 1619, the first iron furnace, and one of the first industrial developments in America, was established on Falling Creek near the James River. Other early American accomplishments included private property ownership, beginning of public education and experiments in representative government. In March 1622, Chief Wahasonacock’s successor, Chief Opechancanough, launched a coordinated attack on area settlements, many of which never recovered and were abandoned.

Main Street, Suite 2102 Richmond, Virginia 23219 July 2015 Kerri S. Barile, Principal Investigator July 2015 ABSTRACT The proposed Washington, D.C. to Richmond (DC2RVA) segment of the Southeast High Speed Rail project was examined through an archaeological background review and predictive model of archaeological site locations. This work will serve to guide subsequent Phase I cultural resource surveys. The proposed project is being completed under the auspice of the Federal Rail Administration (FRA) in conjunction with the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT). Because of the FRA’s involvement, the undertaking is required to comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended. The project is being completed as Virginia Department of Historic Resources (DHR) File Review #2014-0666. Previous studies throughout the region provided a basis for projection of relative probability of discovering terrestrial archaeological sites using standard Phase I survey techniques in the DC2RVA project corridor. Environmental variables included distance to major drainages, soil fertility as reflected in the Soil Conservation Service’s identification of soil classes, and disturbance evident on aerial images of the project corridor.

The SEHSR project involves the development, implementation, and operation of high speed passenger rail service in the approximately 500-mile travel corridor from Washington, DC through Richmond, Virginia and Raleigh, North Carolina to Charlotte, North Carolina. The project involves two general types of work: modifications to the rail corridor to accommodate high speed rail and changes to the surrounding road system to eliminate at-grade road crossings. The corridor between Richmond and the North Carolina state line has been the subject of several cultural resource investigations over the past decade. This includes the Area of Potential Effect (APE) surrounding the rail corridor itself as well as all the APE of all road modification areas surrounding the rail line. Several alternatives were under consideration during the Draft Environmental Review Statement (DEIS) process (VA1, VA2, and VA3; VA4 was also under review in some locales as an avoidance alternative).
