Background
The U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) awarded funds to
Camden County under the Fiscal Year
2022 Port Infrastructure Development
Program for roadway improvements and
reconstruction. The project is located in
the City of Camden, Camden County,
New Jersey.
The project proposes to reconstruct
and improve several roadways within
the City of Camden Port District
including Atlantic Avenue between 1–
676 and Ferry Avenue (0.7 miles),
Broadway (County Route 551) from
Atlantic Avenue to the railroad overpass
(between Chelton Avenue and Morgan
St) (0.9 miles), Ferry Avenue (County
Route 603) from Broadway to Atlantic
Avenue (0.6 miles), and South 2nd
Street from Clinton Avenue to Atlantic
Avenue (0.8 miles). These
improvements will consist of the
following:
• New pavement, milling, and
resurfacing which will improve
roadway conditions and reduce the
need for additional maintenance;
• New sidewalks, ADA-compliant
curb ramps, curb extensions, pedestrian
countdown timers and push buttons
which will improve pedestrian safety
and accessibility;
• Adjusted curb radii and intersection
markings which will discourage trucks
from accessing residential streets and
encourage them to more safely access
truck routes; reduced turn radii will
improve safety;
• Additional wayfinding signage and
dynamic messaging signs which will
improve traffic flow and better direct
motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists to
their destinations;
• New and upgraded street lighting
which will improve safety and comfort;
• New drainage lines utilizing
existing outfalls, and repairing existing
damaged sewer which will capitalize on
existing infrastructure to improve
sewage; and
• Green infrastructure which will
improve drainage and create a more
appealing pedestrian environment.
MARAD has defined the
Undertaking’s area of potential effects
(APE) as the boundary of the property
of South 2nd Steet, Atlantic Avenue,
Ferry Avenue and Broadway, which
encompasses approximately three
roadway miles.
Identification of Historic Properties
The analysis conducted for this
project included revisiting previously
collected archaeological data, additional
research, and site investigations. This
work included the completion of a
VerDate Sep<11>2014
19:21 Aug 08, 2024
Jkt 262001
Phase1A Cultural Resource
Reconnaissance Survey Report
specifically done for this project. The
report, and consultations with the New
Jersey State Historic Preservation Office
(NJSHPO), concluded that the project
will likely have adverse impacts on one
historic resource that is listed on the
National Register of Historic Places
(NRHP), the South Camden Historic
District, and historic resources, the 1907
Line Ditch timber sewer system and
nineteenth century brick sewers, that
will be evaluated for eligibility on the
NRHP during the course of the project.
It was also determined that the project’s
APE overlaps with the New York
Shipbuilding Historic District, Bergen
Square Historic District, and West Jersey
& Seashore Lines Historic District, but
these resources will not be adversely
impacted by the project. The New York
Shipbuilding Historic District has
previously been determined eligible for
the NRHP, while the Bergen Square
Historic District and West Jersey &
Seashore Lines Historic District have
not yet been reviewed for eligibility on
the NRHP.
Affected Historic Properties
The South Camden Historic District’s
period of significance is 1815–1930 and
consist of numerous contributing
elements, such as standing historic
buildings. Cobblestone pavers within
the Historic District are most directly
linked to this project and currently lie
beneath asphalt roadways within the
district’s boundaries.
The 1907 Line Ditch timber sewer
system and nineteenth century brick
sewers contributed to the early
development of the City of Camden. The
method of construction associated with
these resources is common in other
nearby cities, thus making the entire
City of Camden sewer system likely
ineligible for the NRHP as a historic
district. However, this does not
preclude portions of the sewer system
from being contributing elements to
historic districts. Additionally, some
elements may be individually eligible.
This includes the 1907 Line Ditch
timber sewer system due to its ties to
locally significant persons such as
Aaron Ward and unique construction
during a period in which sewer
construction methodologies were
becoming standardized.
Project Impacts on Historic Properties
The South Camden Historic District
may be affected due to the proposed
removal of cobblestone pavers, which
currently lie underneath asphalt paving
on the roadways within the district. The
1907 Line Ditch timber sewer system
PO 00000
Frm 00178
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

and nineteenth century brick sewers
may be adversely impacted by the
project because the project proposes to
repair and/or replace some of the sewers
for improved drainage and stormwater
management.
Adverse Effects, Avoidance,
Minimization, and Mitigation
MARAD, in coordination with
NJSHPO, determined that this project
would require the development of a
Programmatic Agreement to address the
potential for adverse effects. As of this
public notice, MARAD, SHPO, and
Camden County have all agreed to be
signatories to the Agreement; The
Delaware Tribe of Indians and Camden
City Historic Preservation Commission
will be concurring parties. The draft
Agreement is available for review by
going to www.regulations.gov, and
search using docket number ‘‘MARAD–
2024–0102.’’
To mitigate the potential for the
project to cause adverse effects, the
Agreement will require Camden County
to complete the following mitigation
measures:
• Prepare and install signage detailing
the history and significance of the New
York Shipbuilding and South Camden
Historic Districts;
• Document any unearthed
cobblestone to Level III equivalent
standards of the Historic American
Engineering Record (HAER);
• Recover and securely store
cobblestones for later use within the
historic district;
• Conduct a documentation-andvideo-based survey (Phase 1B/II) of any
affected below ground sewer systems;
and
• Based on the Phase 1B/II survey,
recommend and implement a work plan
for the evaluation, monitoring,
documentation, protection, and/or
treatment of any historic properties
within the project’s APE that may be
adversely impacted by the project.
