I agree with Karen that this is likely to be a flat-backed millipede. I find them relatively often in our area, but I have never been able to identify them down to the species. I suspect, but cannot confirm that it may be Apheloria virginiensis. http://bugguide.net/node/view/60558
This is a flat-backed millipede. Can't get narrowed to genus or species yet. Check bugguide.net .
