Moratorium Relief Request for CAMA Major Permit No. 21-16 transferred to
Ridco Corp.
Dear Mr. Brady:
This letter is in response to the above referenced CAMA permit relief request received by the
DCM Morehead City office by email on April 14, 2022. To review this request, we coordinated
with the NC Division of Marine Fisheries.
This moratorium relief request is to conduct dredging operations to begin on or around April 25,
2022, and to conclude no later than May 9, 2022. In consultation with the resource agencies
authorization was given with the following conditions:
1. The relief request is granted to conclude no later than May 9, 2022.
2. Every effort should be made to start and finish the project as early as possible.
3. The NC DMF further noted that oyster relocation was requested and conditioned within
the permit. The permittee is reminded of Condition No. 19, and all other permit
conditions and stipulations of the active permit, unless altered herein, remain in force.
4. The applicant shall notify the Division by email upon completion of the project.
Therefore, the one-time moratorium relief request is granted with the above conditions. If you
have any questions concerning these matters, please feel free to contact me by telephone at (252)
515-5416, or by email at regg.bodnarancdenr.eov.
Sincerely,
Gregg Bodnar

Good morning Gregg,
Thanks for keeping that on the radar. Based on what was provided, I don't see any reason to
deny the request. It's a small amount of material and will be dredged from the land, and it's not
in a designated habitat area. I emailed Shane to get his input since he was the original
commenter, but I haven't heard back from him yet. I would just encourage them to try to get
the in -water work done as quickly as possible. I'd also note that if there will be any future
maintenance dredging, a reminder to submit the relief before the moratorium starts could
significantly shorten delays and issues with working during the moratorium (as you mentioned
in one of your emails).
If I hear back from Shane, I'll let you know asap. But I don't have any reason to object to the
requested relief, and I'm amenable to it being granted.
Thanks Gregg!
Jimmy

Morning all,
Please see above and below for a moratorium relief request for CAMA Permit #21-16 originally
issued to Crystal Holdings and transferred to Ridco Corp. The address is 100 ol-de Towne Yacht Club
Rd. in Beaufort. DMF was the only agency to request the moratorium, but USACE does have
notification requirements associated with dredging.
Liz, please let me know if the information satisfies this or if additional information is needed.
Jimmy, Shane was the fisheries specialist at the time and should have info available. If not please let
me know what you might need.
I have also attached some correspondence with the applicant to clarify some things, specifically...
1. It seems dredging did occur till March 31, 2022 and stopped due to the moratorium.
2. They are requesting relief from 4/25 to 5/9. This is due to re -mobilization delays.
If there is anything else please let me know.
Thanks,
Gregg

So the agencies are looking for the dates the dredging will take place. If dredging had occurred till
3/31/22 typically an applicant would come in that week and start the relief process so that
mobilization would not be interrupted, assuming that relief was granted. In this case dredging
stopped due to the moratorium and would need to re -mobilize. I would add that to the relief
request and try and narrow down the dates you need to actively dredge. That may require the
dredger to provide you with some dates based on their experience.
But in my experience, the longer into the moratorium the request is, the less likely the agencies
will OK it.

Good morning Gregg,
This project has been dredging up until the March 31 deadline of this year and needs a little time
to get this stuff cleaned up as shown on the sketch. My 2020 reference was when the bulkhead
work started. This is a large project with some dredging occurring in previous years.
My only reason for asking for 45 days from issuance was to get the equipment mobilized and
contractor at site. It certainly won't take 45 days to complete. How should I phrase that?
Thanks so much.
Doug

Morning Doug,
A few quick questions...
1. You mention that dredging started in March 2020. We are looking for if
dredging started before the yearly moratorium and had to stop due to the
moratorium. It seems in this case that dredging had not occurred before April
2022 and you are requesting to start dredging in the moratorium?
2. You mention 300 cubic yards is proposed, and need 45 days to complete.
Typically that amount of sediment can be done in days. My experience is that
the resource agencies would not be interested in allowing that amount of
time for that cubic yardage, especially this late into the moratorium. Can you
revise that window or provide justification to needing 45 days?
Thanks for the additional information.
