The replacement of this the was not covered under the original Major Permit (129.02) for shoreline stabilization. The damaged the was discovered after the permit was issued.-This damaged the is located approximately 150 feet North of the existing stabilization project. The shoulder of the canal has become unstabilized and is eroding into the canal bottom, which has caused the road to begin to collapse. Therefore, NCDOT is requesting a letter of refinement from DCM to allow the replacement of the drain the and the placement of additional rip-rap to be covered under 1v *r Pemait 129-02. This will stabilize the canal bank and prevent and further damage to the roadway. This will result in an additional 320 square feet of rip-rap to be placed in the canal bottom. The rip-rap will be carried up the canal bank to stabilize the shoulder. Included with this request are work plats detailing the work area, proposed pipe replacement and rip-rap placement, if any additional information is needed pleaso call Clay Willis at 252-482-7977.

PROJECT SUMMARY: The N.C. Department of Transportation is proposing to stabilize 415 feet of Rattlesnake Canal shoreline along SR 1111 and replace 8" terra cotta farm tiles with 24" culverts where two farm ditches cross SR 1111. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT NC DOT - SR 1111, Hyde County PAGE 2 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: 021148 The site of this proposal is SR 1111, between SR 1110 and SR 1108, approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Middletown, in Hyde County. Farm Tile One and Two are 1140 feet and 1368 feet respectively, southeast of SR 1110. The proposed stabilization begins 2060 feet southeast of SR 1110 and ends 2475 southeast of SR 1110.The general purpose of the project is to stabilize the road shoulder and repair the broken farm tiles under SR 1111, to alleviate erosion into Rattlesnake Canal and provide safer driving conditions for the traveling public. State Road 1111 parallels Rattlesnake Canal and provides a 15 -foot gravel travelway and a road shoulder averaging 7 feet wide on the southwest side and 5 feet wide on the northeast side (outside of the proposed project area). In the proposed project area the canal bank has eroded into the gravel travelway in several areas and is less than 5 feet in the majority of the project area. Rattlesnake Canal was originally excavated for agricultural drainage and the proposed project area is completely surrounded by agricultural fields. A small marina exists approximately 4000 feet downstream of the proposed project area on the southeast side of the bridge crossing Rattlesnake Canal on SR 1108. In the proposed project area Rattlesnake Canal is approximately 50 feet wi de, with the canal bottom 7.5 feet below the ground surface and terminates at the Pamlico Sound. Approximately 2.5 feet of water is in the canal at Normal High Water. Farm Tile One and Two are 8" terra cotta pipe sections connecting the existing farm ditches to Rattlesnake Canal. Both farm tiles have collapsed sections allowing water to escape under SR 1111 causing undermining of the road travelway and shoulder. The surrounding agricultural fields were planted with wheat, soybeans and corn. The ditch banks are vegetated with Dewberry, Honeysuckle, Poison Ivy, Virginia Creeper, Cat Brier and Bermuda grass. The NC Soil Conservation Service classifies soils in the project area as Hyde Land Silty Loam. Approximate elevations on the site range between -2 feet and 5 feet above normal high water. No evidence of SAV beds was noted. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality classifies waters of Pamlico Sound adjacent to the proposed project area as SA-HQW and they are subject to the Tar-Pamlico River Buffer Rules. No Primary Nursery Area, as designated by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries, is located at this site. The Hyde County Land Use Plan designates the project area as Rural, with all CAMA Areas of Environmental Concern designated as Conservation. The proposal is to armor 415 feet of canal bank with rip rap, in an alignment approximating the original canal bank, to a height 2 feet above NHW to provide a stable base to backfill a 5 -foot wide soil road shoulder to more closely correspond to the adjacent road shoulders. This riprap armament alignment would extend water-ward of the existing eroded areas from 6 feet to 11 feet and be covered with soil stabilizing fabric. The proposed soil road shoulder would be installed above the soil stabilizing fabric and include the same fabric between the existing canal bank and the soil backfill. Two 8" farm tiles that have degraded and collapsed would be replaced with 24" corrugated aluminum culverts after the erosion sediment is excavated from the canal bottom at the end of the farm tiles. The canal bank will be armored surrounding the culverts for a 15 -foot radius. NC DOT Best Management Practices will be used for erosion control. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT NC DOT - SR 1111, Hyde County PAGE 3 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: As proposed, the construction of the riprap armament would require the filling of approximately 3652 square feet of shallow (canal) bottom. The replacement of the two farm tiles with culverts would require the excavation of approximately 300 square feet of shallow bottom and 280 feet of high ground in addition to the filling of approximately 300 square feet of shallow bottom and 404 square feet of high ground (canal bank around culverts). NC DOT has reduced the shallow bottom excavation and fill impacts associated with this proposal by increasing the canal bank side slopes to 2:1. The NC DOT has proposed to use standard BMP's to minimize the impacts of erosion. Principally local residents use State Road 1111. The repair of the road shoulder and replacement of the deteriorated farm tiles with culverts should enhance the safety of motorists using SR 1111. The collective disturbance area for the project is 0.11 acres. Bill Arrington July 17, 2002 Morehead City fkQ- Co. e,,. STATEa STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION MICHAEL F. EASLEY LYNDO TIPPETT GOVERNOR SECRETARY June 12, 2002 ?. Division of Coastal Management J`'r`'? "002 3411 Arendell Street P.O. Box 769 ^~? - Morehead City, N.C. 28557 Attention: Bill Arrington, Field Officer (Transportation Projects) . Subject: Road shoulder stabilization on Secondary Road I 1 l 1 (Rattlesnake Canal Road) near the town of Middletown, Hyde County. The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to stabilize a section of SR 1111. This road parallels a drainage canal that flows out to the Pamlico Sound. Along a portion of this canal, the bank has become destabilized and significant amounts of erosion have taken place. The erosion of the canal bank has caused SR 11 I I's roadbed to be undermined. If the canal banks are not stabilized then further erosion will continue and the roadbed will eventually be washed out completely, resulting in road closure. The length of the area to be stabilized along the canal bank with class B riprap is 415 feet, with an average distance waterward (NWL) of 6.8 feet. This will result in 65 cubic yards of fill below the NWL. The primary cause of the bank erosion was two drainage pipes that carry water from adjacent agricultural fields, under the road, and into the canal. These pipes are old pipes that have collapsed under the roadbed. These pipes will be replaced in conjunction with the bank stabilization. Once this work is complete we do not anticipate having any further problems with bank destabilization along this canal. The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a CAMA major permit for impacts to Public Trust Waters. Rattlesnake Canal is a navigable water and can be accessed by way of the Pamlico Sound. In the area of the proposed work there is essentially no recreational use of the canal as Public Trust Water. Approximately 0.5 miles south of the project area, there are a few commercial boats that dock along the bank of the canal. The purpose of the canal is drainage of the adjacent agricultural fields.
