Dear Mr. Parker:

Reference the application of the LaQue Center for Corrosion
Technology for Department of the Army authorization to reconstruct
and backfill a bulkhead and replace a pier on Banks Channel,
Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover County, North Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as
presented by the application and your field investigation report.
We recommend that the following conditions be included in the
State authorization:
a. The new bulkhead will be positioned no farther waterward
than an average of 2 feet from the alignment of the deteriorated
bulkhead.
b. All backfill materials will be obtained from a high ground
source and confined landward of the permitted bulkhead.
c. The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants
except in trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials, or
unsightly debris will not be used.
d. Vegetated wetlands will not be filled.
e. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the
full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or
adjacent the authorized work.
-2-
f. If the display of lights and signals on the authorized
structure is not otherwise provided for by law, such lights and
signals as may be prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard will be
installed and maintained by and at the expense of the permittee.
g. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good
condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this
permit. The permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he
abandons the permitted activity without having it transferred to a
third party.
h. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to
prevent a significant increase in turbidity outside the area of
construction or construction-related discharge. Increases such
that the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU's or'less are not
considered significant.
i. This permit does not authorize interference with any
existing or proposed Federal project.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Hugh Heine,
telephone [phone].

Charles W. Hollis

Gentlemen:
On February 6, 1986, we renewed general permit No. SAWC080-N--
000-0291 (enclosed), which provides Federal authorization for
construction activities that receive authorization from the State
of North Carolina.
A review of your application received November 13, 1987, for a
Department of the Army permit to reconstruct and backfill a
bulkhead and replace a pier on Banks Channel, Wrightsville Beach,
New Hanover County, North Carolina, indicates it to be a candidate
for Federal authorization under this general permit. Accordingly,
the administrative processing of your application will be
accomplished by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management.
Comments from Federal review agencies will be furnished to the
State.
If your application must be withdrawn from this general permit
process for any reason, you will be written and informed of its
further management. If there are no unresolved differences of
State-Federal positions or policy, the final action taken on your
application by the State will result in your receiving written
processed under our general permit. Only after receiving such
confirmation should you begin work.
Your application, pursuant to Section l0*of the River and
Harbor Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, has been
assigned No. SAWCO88-N-065-0070 and will be coordinated by
'sir. Hugh Heine. He is available to address questions or comments
you may have at telephone [phone].

Enclosed is the application of LaQue Center for Corrosion
Technology for a Department of the Army permit and a State Water
Quality Certification to reconstruct and backfill a bulkhead and
replace a pier on Banks Channel, Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover
County, North Carolina. Your receipt of this letter verifies your
acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with
Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department
of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by January 18, 1988, the District
Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Hugh Heine,

8. Project Summary The applicants propose to replace 33 ft section of existing
failing bulkhead and replace existing deteriorating portions of pier and decks
to improve commercial facilities.
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located on the South west side of Banks Channel at the
intersection of U.S. Hwy 76 East and Auditorium Circle, Wrightsville Beach, New
Hanover County, North Carolina. The facility consists of an existing
commercial office and research buildings covering approximately 959 of the high
ground property located within 20 feet of mean high water mark, two existing
piers, two decks and two floating docks over the water. The decks are used
primarily for mounting steel and other structural material for corrosion
testing. There is an existing wooden bulkhead measuring approximately 250 feet
along the shoreline of this property. One deck located on the northern corner
of the project measuring approximately 47 ft by 46 ft is deteriorating and
needs replacement. A section of the existing pier measuring approximately 13
feet by 13 feet is also in need of repair by bracing and decking. The existing
bulkhead is partially failing in one location which requires replacement of
approximately 33 feet section. The waters within the project area are
classified as SB. They are also a designated secondary nursery area according
to Marine Fisheries.
The applicants propose to replace the deck measuring 47' by 46 feet located on
the Northern end of the property. They also propose to reinforce a section of
an existing pier to the south measuring approximately 13 feet by 13.feet by
bracing and decking over. A replacement of 33 feet section of the existing
bulkhead to the south is also proposed. The replacement bulkhead is to be
aligned an average distance of 2 feet waterward of the existing bulkhead
needing repair.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The replacement bulkhead will cause to be consumed approximately 66 s.f. of
shallow intertidal water. There will be short term turbidity associated with
the construction of the bulkhead. No long term significant impact is expected
from this activity.
