The overall purpose of this work is to replace a structurally deficient bridge (Belford Bridge) and construct a new RCB to maintain safe and reliable transportation along this segment of EW-35. The project is not a water dependent activity. The proposed project is in the North % of Section 2, Township 23 North, Range 4 East, near Ralston, crossing the Arkansas River and associated unnamed tributary located between Osage and Pawnee County, Oklahoma. The project site can be found on the Doga Creek, Oklahoma 7.5 Minute USGS Quadrangle map. The applicant proposes the placement of fill material into the Arkansas River for a temporary work road. The temporary work road would require approximately 1,200 cys of earthen material between pier 1 and 8. The applicant is proposing to use a work barge or a temporary cofferdam for the remain ing piers. The total project length is 6 ,357 .12 If and the new bridge project is 2,321.16 If. The other project proponents would drill 16 piers (0.020 ac) using a 60- inch diameter form that would be filled in with concrete and steel for each pier (0.001 3 ac). The applicant proposes to use approximately 1 ,045 cys for Type 1 Class A riprap (with filter blanket) for bank stabilization to protect the abutments. The new bridge structure would be on an offset using seventeen 135-foot TYPE J PC Beams and two new RCBs approximately 69 If (10- by 10-foot each). The fill material may consist of concrete, gravel, sand, and earthen material. The work would be performed using conventional earth moving requirement, drills, and a work barge. The existing structurally-deficient bridge and the temporary work road would be removed when the new bridge has been completed.
