Hey Ginny,
This is a request from DOT to put in an elevated walkway, portions of which would be through a mitigation site for the
rest area off 64 in Manteo. I know the Corps has serious reservations about approving it. They had specific language in
their 404 permit prohibiting any kinds of future development in that area. Anyway, I wanted to let you know about this
and get your thoughts on it. We can discuss next week if you want to. I’ll be in the field Monday and Tuesday but
should have some free time at some point. Thanks.

Subject: Pedestrian Walkway/Trail from Coastal Studies Institute to Dare County Visitors Center

Tracey & Garcy,

I have attached a request for authorization to construct the proposed elevated wooden boardwalk and trail, which
extends from the Coastal Studies Institute to the NCDOT Visitors Center on Roanoke Island. The path follows through
two wooded areas along an existing pathway and two state roads (Toler Road, Skyco Road). There are no proposed
impacts to surface waters or wetlands associated with this request. The request includes permit drawings, photo
illustrations, previous mitigation plat for Visitors and location map. Please let me know if you have any questions or
1

need additional information. If we need to meet on-site again for further discussion, we can coordinate that with a field
meeting. I also sent a request to DCM for permit authorization through an existing CSI Major permit.

Thanks,
Clay
