Nucor Corporation
Chowan River Water Intake Structure
Hertford County
Project Setting
The site is located at 1505 River Road (SR 1400) downstream of the community of Petty
Shores near Tunis on the Chowan River in Hertford County, North Carolina. The 990-acre tract
consists of approximately 7,920 linear feet of shoreline on the western side of the Chowan River.
Historically, the majority of the site was owned by Champion International and was used for
silviculture (loblolly pine plantation) with a few small agricultural fields and three dwellings.
Around a decade ago, Nucor Corporation obtained ownership of the property and converted the use
to the Nucor Steel plate recycling mill with rail access and a barge loading facility, authorized under
CAMA Major Permit No. 79-99 issued 2 September 1999, Department of the Army Permit No.
199811324, and Division of Water Quality Certification No. 990231. The applicant has an approved
Stormwater Permit No. SW7990624 issued 30 August 2000, renewed 22 August 2005 for the initial
development of the plant.
The site is bordered on the upstream (west) side by Petty Shores Subdivision, a residential
development with single family dwellings and multiple pier structures on the west bank of the
Chowan River. The site is bordered on the downstream (east) side by a dirt road (SR 1445) with a
few dwellings at Eure Landing. The tract averages 30' above the normal water level (NWL) and is
relatively flat with a steep bluff at the river's edge. Several wetland swells cut into the bluff and
provide drains from the upland portion of the site to the Chowan River. All of the infrastructure,
including multiple buildings, roads, and stormwater ponds, with the exception of the existing barge
loading facility and access on the Chowan River, is located outside the Coastal Shoreline Area of
Environmental Concern, and encompasses approximately 300 acres of the property. During
construction of the Nucor Steel Hertford Mill plant, 2.32 acres of wetlands were impacted, and an
onsite Mitigation Plan has been implemented and monitored since 2002. Other vegetation on the site
includes pine plantation, mixed hardwoods and pines along the shore, and native bottomland
hardwood swamp tree species.
The Chowan River is classified as B-NSW by the Environmental Management Commission.
This section of the river is not open to shellfish harvesting and is not a designated primary nursery
area. The Chowan River is approximately 1,400' wide at the project site. The water depth in the
Chowan River at the waterward end of the proposed water intake structure is
-15' relative to normal water level. Land based and below water archaeological investigations and
findings on the property were conducted and recorded by Brockington and Associates and Mid-
Atlantic Technology, Inc. prior to construction of the mill site. The location of these sites will not be
disturbed by the construction or operation of the proposed water intake structure.
Project Description
Nucor Steel is proposing to install a raw water intake structure from the Chowan River to
provide the plant with an alternate source of 1 million gallons of water per day. The plant has been
and is currently using groundwater as their raw water source for process and cooling of plant
operations. Due to high amounts of chloride ions recently found in their groundwater source, Nucor
Corporation is proposing the Chowan River as an alternate source of raw water for the steel recycling
process. The system will include two pile supported cylindrical intake screens with an airburst
backwash system and water intake piping with protective piles until it is installed below river bottom
to a pump station and ultimately into an existing storm water pond No. B 1. The water from the pond
will be treated onsite for use in the plant.
The proposed water intake structure and all work below normal water level (NWL) of the
Chowan River will take place landward of an existing metal catwalk immediately upstream of the
existing barge dock. Prior to the installation of the water intake structure below NWL of the
Chowan River, a sheet pile coffer dam will be installed around the entire perimeter of all temporary
and permanent impacts in the river. The area inside the coffer dam will be properly dewatered to
prevent sedimentation from entering the river during construction. The water intake structure will
extend approximately 90' into the Chowan River where two cylindrical intake screens, 27 inches in
diameter with 1 mm mesh openings, will be held in place ±5' above the river bottom by a pile
supported structure. The Chowan River is -15' deep at the location of the water intake. The intake
structure will be supported by a total of eight 12" diameter concrete filled steel piles for a distance of
±25' prior to its transition into and below the river bottom contour. An additional five protective
piles will be installed upstream of and adjacent to the water intake to prevent structural damage from
debris. Excavation of the trench below NWL to install the 24" water line will take place inside the
coffer dam and extend 76' into the Chowan River by 20' wide. The spoil material will be sidecast to
a temporary location inside the coffer dam, the water line and supporting infrastructure will be
installed, and the spoil material will be placed back in the trench to cover the water line and return
the disturbed bottom to original grade. The trench excavation for the installation of the raw water
line will continue straight from the river above NWL, through the 30' buffer, will make a 45° bend to
the southeast for ±70', will make another 45° bend to the south for ±40' where it will reach the wet
well and pump station located outside the 75' Coastal Shoreline (CS) Area of Environmental
Concern (AEC). Shoreline stabilization of a proposed 20' long riprap revetment that will extend 10'
below NWL of the river will be installed after the waterline is trenched through the bank. The ± 15'
tall bank that extends through the buffer immediately landward of the proposed riprap revetment will
be stabilized with native vegetation post construction.
The wet well and pump station area of ±800 ft' will be filled to create a pad for the station.
The tall bank adjacent the existing swale adjacent the existing gravel road will be stabilized with a
proposed ± 165' long retaining wall, ±5' of which will be located within the CS AEC perpendicular to
the NWL. The retaining wall will protect a proposed ±160' long storm sewer drain that will be
installed between the proposed retaining wall and pump station and outfall f34' landward of NWL
into existing riprap on the bank. The area the storm drain will be installed in is currently a roadside
swale that leads stormwater to the proposed outfall at the riprap. The raw water line will extend
landward of the proposed pump station and below the ground for ±1,950' adjacent an existing gravel
and dirt road and outfall into the existing stormwater pond B 1.
Anticipated Impacts
A temporary sheet pile coffer dam will surround a 2,400 ft' area of the Chowan River out to
the -16' depth contour to prevent turbidity in the Chowan River during construction. The area inside
the coffer dam will be temporarily impacted during the installation of a proposed raw water intake
structure and line. The water line will require the excavation of 1,520 ft2 (600 yds3) of soft muck and
sandy river bottom below NWL to form a trench to lay the pipe. Approximately 1,000 ft' of
submerged aquatic vegetation (water lilies) will be displaced inside the coffer dam until they
naturally repopulate the area post construction. An additional ±5,000 yds3 of upland sandy earth will
be excavated to form the trench for the pipe above NWL to stormwater pond B 1. The excavated
material will be placed back in the trench to cover the pipe, and any remaining material will be
hauled to an upland location. The portion of the water intake structure located within the water
column will usurp ±368 ft' of Chowan River. The system is expected to operate ±8 hours per day to
produce 1 million gallons per day (mgd) of treated water. The proposed riprap revetment will fill
200 ft2 of shallow bottom of the Chowan River. Immediately landward of the riprap, the project will
result in 600 ft2 of the bank located within the buffer to be graded and planted with native vegetation
following installation of the water line. There will be 600 yds3 of clean earthen fill material brought
to the upland area located outside the CS AEC for the pump station pad. The 800 ft' roof dripline of
the pump station is the only impervious surface proposed for the project, and it is located outside the
CS AEC. There exists 0.7% impervious surfaces within the CS AEC, and±15% impervious surfaces
on the entire tract. The natural drainage Swale on the west side of the existing road to the barge dock
will be replaced with a drainage system during installation of the water intake system. A ±165' long
retaining wall adjacent the newly installed pump station will be constructed resulting in the
disturbance of ±3,200 ft2 of upland area. Although cultural resources were found during a study over
a decade ago on the uplands and in the Chowan River on the property, there will be no impact to
these resources in the location of the water intake structure. Sedimentation and erosion control
measures, such as silt fencing, will be used to prevent temporary stockpile of excavated material
from entering the Chowan River. All upland ground disturbance will be re-vegetated post
construction.

The purpose of the proposed project is to construct and operate a water withdrawal intake system in the Chowan River. This
water intake structure will withdraw up to 1 million gallons per day (mgd). The withdrawn water will be used as cooling and
process water. As with current operations, there will be no discharge of process water to the Chowan River. Nucor is a non-
discharge facility; process water Is treated and recycled on site. This project is needed to provide a supplemental water
system that will provide a sufficient good quality water source for the steel-making process.
c. Describe the proposed construction methodology, types of construction equipment to be used during construction, the number of each type
of equipment and where it is to be stored.
Erosion and sedimentation controls will be installed prior to beginning construction. A crane with a pile driver operated from
the existing dock or high-ground river bank will assist in the installation of the proposed intake structure and raw water piping
and also in the placement and removal of the temporary sheet piling. Temporary sheet piling will be installed around the
area of the proposed intake structure and raw water piping and driven to an appropriate depth. After sheet pile installation is
complete, the enclosed area will be dewatered with pumps to allow for excavation in the dry. Protective and support piles for
the intake structure and associated raw water pipe will be driven. Water pumped from any excavated areas will be filtered of
sediment prior to release into the Chowan River. A backhoe will be used for excavation and material taken out of the
excavation area will be stockpiled and reuse as backfill. Construction equipment will be stored at any of a number of upland
staging facilities already present at the mill and located outside of the Area of Environmental Concern.

Nucor Steel is proposing to install a raw water intake and associated infrastructure in the Chowan River. The system will
consist of pile supported cylindrical intake screens with an air-burst backwash system, 5 protective piles, 24-inch water intake
piping, a raw water pump station, and a 24-inch transmission line from the raw water pump station to Storm Water Pond B1.
The intake is designed to reduce approach and sweep velocities and provide 1 million gallons per day. The screens of the
intake will be greater than 1 meter above the river bed and held in place by 4 saddle pipe supports. Each support will have 2
piles no greater than 12 inches in diameter. The pipe from the bullet screens will extend horizontally for approximately 25 feet
until it reaches the river bottom at which point, the raw water pipe will be buried under the river bed and continue underground
until it reaches the wet well and pump station. The raw water line will run approximately 2,100 feet underground to Storm
Water Pond B1. Further information and detatiled structure information is included in the attached narrative and Chowan
River Analysis.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
A. Proiect Narrative
Introduction to Project
The applicant, Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill, proposes to install a water intake
structure and associated infrastructure within the Chowan River. A site vicinity
map, USGS topographic map, and aerial photograph showing the approximate
location of the intake are attached for review (Figures 1 - 3)
Project Purpose
The basic project purpose of the proposed installation of the water intake at the
Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill is to provide a source of process and cooling water to
the mill. More specifically, the overall project purpose is to install the water
intake to acquire high quality water, which will require less treatment and
filtration, for the steel making process.
Proposed Project
The Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill manufactures steel plate, which requires water
for cooling and process applications. Currently, Nucor uses groundwater wells as
their raw water source. There are high amounts of chloride ions in the
groundwater. Nucor Steel has determined that an alternate source of water from
the Chowan River could be used as process and/or cooling water. Construction of
a raw water intake structure is proposed in the Chowan River (Figure 2) to
provide raw water for process and cooling for the Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill.
The system will consist of pile supported cylindrical intake screens with an air-
burst backwash system, 5 protective piles, water intake piping, a raw water pump
station, and a transmission line from the raw water pump station to Storm Water
Pond No. B 1 (Sheets 1-9). Once at the stormwater pond (B 1), raw water will be
pumped to the mill using a new pump station. The intake is designed to reduce
approach and sweep velocities. The sweep velocity design is 0.25 feet per
second. The Chowan River intake would operate approximately 8 hours per day
to produce 1 million gallons per day (mgd) of treated water. The airburst system
is automated and will be used when the screens become clogged/covered. A
change in air the pressure triggers the system to be automated. This includes a
warning siren prior to the airburst system becoming active.
The bullet screens will be greater than 1 meter above the river bed and held in
place by 4 saddle pipe supports. Each support will have 2 piles no greater than 12
inches in diameter. The pipe from the bullet screens will extend horizontally for
approximately 25 feet until it reaches the river bottom (shown on Sheet 3 of the
attached plans). At this point, the raw water pipe will be buried under the river
bed and continue underground until it reaches the wet well and pump station. The
wet well and pump station fill pad will be raised using off site material.
Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures will be utilized during this
filling activity. No fill for the pump station will be placed into jurisdictional
1 of 9
waters or sensitive areas. Bank stabilization (shown on Sheet 3 and 8 of the
attached plans) includes a granite rip-rap toe placed at the waterline, a revegetated
stream bank stabilized with staked erosion control fabric and native plants, and a
fascine toe.
Erosion and sedimentation controls will be installed prior to beginning
construction. Temporary sheet piling, driven to an appropriate depth, will be
installed around the area of the proposed intake structure and raw water piping
(shown on Sheet 2 of the attached plans). A crane will assist in the installation of
the proposed intake structure and raw water piping; and also in the placement and
removal of the temporary sheet piling. After sheet pile installation is complete,
the enclosed area will be dewatered with pumps to allow for excavation in the
dry. Protective and support piles for the intake structure and associated raw water
pipe will be driven (shown on Sheets 1 - 3, 7, and 8 of the attached site plans).
Area of temporary impact to the river bottom and banks within the sheet piling
coffer dam will be approximately 0.06 acre (2,400 square feet). Approximately
20 linear feet of river bank will be temporarily disturbed. During construction,
water pumped from excavated areas will be filtered through dewatering/sediment
bags to remove sediment prior to release into the Chowan River. A backhoe will
be used to excavate the trench for the waterline within the dewatered area. The
backhoe will be operated from high ground or the existing dock whenever
possible. If it is required that equipment ride on the river bottom, mats will be
used to prevent machinery from sinking and protect the river bed. The river
bottom and banks will be returned to pre-existing contours upon completion of
installation of the water line. Material taken out of the excavation area will be
stockpiled and reused as backfill. Temporary stockpile locations for the deeper
excavations are indicated on the site plans (shown on Sheet 2 and 8. The
contractor may need to select other locations as construction proceeds, as steep
slopes along the banks will restrict the locations of temporary stockpiles. All
temporary stockpile locations will be protected with silt fence to prevent
sediment-laden run-off from entering the river. Most likely, some excavated
material will need to be temporarily placed within the temporary cofferdam area
near the intake when construction is on-going in that area. For the construction of
the raw waterline beyond the raw water pump station, the excavation should be
shallow enough that the excavated material can be placed adjacent to the trench
and backfilled the same day. Vegetative stream bank stabilization techniques
(shown on Sheet 3 of the attached plans) in accordance with Section 6.72 of the
North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual will
be utilized at the site. A granite rip-rap toe will be place at the waterline.
Additionally, stormwater from the existing port road swale (Photo 1) will be
routed around the pump station near the intake location. A retaining wall and a
stormwater pipe (shown on Sheets 1 and 2 of the attached site plans) will be used
to reroute stormwater. The stormwater outlet will discharge onto a granite rip-rap
apron that is already existing at the site. A small portion of the retaining wall and
2 of 9
bank stabilization measures will be the only structures within the 75-foot Area of
Environmental Concern (AEC) (shown on Sheet 2 of the attached plans). Bank
stabilization measures must be located within the AEC. These measures will be
stabilizing the bank where excavation occurred for raw water pipe installation.
The last 5-10 feet of the retaining wall is needed to provide adequate protection to
the stormwater feature that will route stormwater around the proposed pump
station.
Additional details and description for this project can be found in the "Nucor
Steel Water Supply & Treatment Facility" drawings (Sheets 1-9) and the attached
report titled "Chowan River Analysis for Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill" dated
September 1, 2010.

Submerged Aquatic Vegetation
Water lilies (Nymphaea sp), considered submerged aquatic vegetation, are shown
in several of the pictures above. These lilies are present along the water's edge
from the existing dock well upstream of the intake location. Approximately 1,000
square feet of lilies will be temporarily displaced in the active construction area
but should naturally repopulate after construction is complete.
Aquatic Resources
The Ablemarle Sound and the Chowan River historically supported a substantial
commercial fishery for anadromous fishes. A study was conducted by Aquatic
Resources, LLC in April and May of 2010 to determine the distribution of
anadromous Alosa spp. eggs and larvae in the vicinity of the water intake
location. The report concluded that a majority of the target eggs and larvae
(Alosa spp.) were collected from the lower water column (1 meter above the
substrate). The full report titled "Distribution of Anadromous Alosa spp.
(Clupeidae) Eggs and Larvae in the Vicinity of the NUCOR Facility, Chowan
River, North Carolina in 2010" can be found within the report titled "Chowan
River Analysis for Nucor Steel - Hertford Mill" which is attached for review.
A pre-application meeting was held on March 4, 2010. Sara Winslow with NC
Division of Marine Fisheries and Fritz Rohde with the National Marine Fisheries
Service were in attendance. Per their recommendation, Nucor conducted an
additional survey in 2010 (referenced above). Nucor coordinated with Ms.
Winslow and Mr. Rohde on methodology and survey area prior to the study. A
copy of the new 2010 fisheries study was forwarded to Ms Winslow and Mr.
Rohde on November 19, 2010. On December 3, 2010, Nucor received feedback
from Ms. Winslow and Mr. Rohde. It is Nucor's understanding that the general
consensus was that the study was well executed and neither had additional
comments or questions regarding the study.
All work within the Chowan River associated with the water intake will be
completed outside of the construction moratorium of February 15 to September
30.
Cultural Resources
Terrestrial and underwater archaeological investigations for the proposed site
were completed by Brockington and Associates; and Mid-Atlantic Technology,
Inc. Eleven sites and nineteen isolated finds were recorded on the total project
site and three underwater anomalies were recorded along the shoreline.
Correspondence from the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources dated
January 8, 1999, indicated that three sites of the eleven identified land sites are
potentially eligible for listing with the National Register of Historic Places
(NRHP) and the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO).
7 of 9
The location of these sites are along the northern boundary and will not be
disturbed. Mid-Atlantic Technology, Inc. recommends that a minimum 200-foot
radius no-impact buffer zone be placed around one underwater target.
Based on the final decision by the SHPO, Nucor entered into a MOA with the
appropriate parties on July 2, 1999, including the SHPO and the Corps, either to
preserve or recover the three potentially eligible land sites with a recovery plan
approved by the SHPO. Nucor will not impact the underwater targets during
installation of the water intake structures. Past site development, construction,
and operation of the dock has not affected the underwater target areas and Nucor
will maintain the recommended buffer zone.
B. Accurate Dated Work Plat Drawn to Scale
See attached site plan maps (Sheets 1-9). To date, no work associated with the
proposed water intake has been completed.
C. Site of Location Map
The project site is located within the existing mill property, northeast of Cofield,
North Carolina, near the Hertford/Gates County line. A site vicinity map, USGS
