RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 303 Bradlev creek Point Rd., Joseah and Sandra Kitttnaer 313/2022
This office supports the recommendations of the resource agencies, particularly the NC Division of Marine Fisheries, regarding
potential impacts to shallow bottom. Should concerns be expressed over potential impacts from any of the resource agencies,
the project could then be found to be inconsistent with NCAC 07H ,0208(a)(2), which requires that the location, design and
need be consistent with the management objective of the Estuarine System AEC and the project be sited and designed to
avoid significant adverse Impacts upon the productivity and biological integrity of spawning and nursery areas.
It is the staffs recommendation that the proposed new and maintenance excavation is CONSISTENT with the Rules of 15 A
NCAC 07H.0208 (b) (1) which states, "Navigation channels, canals, and boat basins shall be aligned or located so as to avoid
primary nursery areas, shellfish beds, beds of submerged aquatic vegetation as defined by the MFC, or areas of coastal
wetlands except as otherwise allowed within this subchapter.". It also states "Any canal or boat basin shall be excavated no
deeper than the depth of connecting waters,
This office has no objection to the proposed work, provided it is consistent with all other state and federal permitting
requirements. It is recommended that any permit issued should include standard conditions for excavation Including a
Consent to Cross from the USACE.

This project is consistent and not in conflict with the Wilmington - New Hanover
County Joint Land Use Plan Update.
The applicant is proposing to perform maintenance Excavation within the existing boat
basin and access channel to connect with the federally maintained AIWW. The project is
located at 303 Bradley Creek Point Road in Wilmington, New Hanover County.
Areas of Environmental Concern (AFC's) impacted by the proposal are EW, PTA and
CW. Waters at the project site are classified as SB and are not open to the harvesting of
shellfish. The area is not a Primary Nursery Area.
I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the 2006 Wilmington -New Hanover
County Joint Land Use Plan and offer the following comments.
The general area of the project is classified as Residential and Conservation.
In general, New Hanover County allows development in Conservation classified AECs,
which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Wilmington -New
Hanover County Joint Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's
minimum use standards. However, none of these standards appear to be applicable to this
proposal.

TO: Cameron Luck, Assistant Major Permits Coordinator
FROM: Kimberlee Harding, NCDMF Fisheries Resource Specialist
SUBJECT: Joseph and Sandra Kittinger- maintenance dredging of boat basin and
channel
DATE: April 06, 2022
A North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Fisheries Resource Specialist has
reviewed the CAMA Permit application for proposed actions that impact fish and fish
habitats. The applicant is proposing to perform maintenance excavation within the existing
boat basin and access channel to connect with the federally maintained AIWW. The access
channel has existing coastal wetlands that would be impacted with the maintenance
excavation. The project also includes a small area of new excavation within the established
boat basin and the waterward end of the access channel. The adjacent waters of the
Wrightsville Recreation Area/ AIWW are classified SB by the Division of Water Resources
and are designated as Secondary Nursery Area but are not designated as a Primary Nursery
Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries and they are closed to the harvest of
shellfish.
The NCDMF does not have any concerns with the maintenance dredge component of this
project, including the excavation of 400 ft2 of coastal wetlands. However, the Division does
not see the purpose or need of the proposed new excavation within the basin and entrance
channel. The Division recommends the applicant only perform dredging within the
maintenance excavation footprint.
The Division also recommends that the any live shellfish identified within this impact area
should be relocated to a nearby area in the same vertical distribution along the water
column. In the past, raking shellfish away from the impact area to surrounding areas
where shellfish are present, transporting to non -dredged areas within the project area
where oysters are present, or relocation to natural shoreline to protect marsh within the
project area where oysters are present have been utilized and proven effective.
Thank you for consideration of our comments. Please contact Kimberlee Harding at or at

Recreation Area/ AIWW are classified SB by the Division of Water Resources and are designated as Secondary
Nursery Area but are NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries.
They are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish.
The applicant proposes to perform maintenance excavation within the existing boat basin and access channel to
connect with the federally maintained AIWW. The access channel has existing coastal wetlands that would be
impacted with the maintenance excavation. The project also includes a small area of new excavation within the
established boat basin and the waterward end of the access channel. The dimensions of the proposed excavation
footprint in the existing boat basin range from 66' to 35' In width and 50' to 60' In length due to fringing coastal
wetlands, to a depth of -4 NLW. The previous boat basin excavation footprint authorized in State Permit 59.97
references a drawing that shows a maximum width of 66'; however, the Field Report and cdaits data indicate a 60'
maximum width. This 6' difference in width requested In the current application represents a small area of
potential new excavation, estimated at a max of 180 ftz. The dimensions of the proposed access channel range
from 23' to 34' in width and 430' in length to a depth of -4 NLW. The previously permitted access channel excavation
footprint was 380' in length with a max width of 30'. According to the applicant the proposed 50' Increase in length
allows the excavation to connect to the -4 NWL contour and the 4' increase in width to 34' max would occur gradually
at the waterward end of the channel as a flared end. The extra 50' in length and 4' in width proposed at the end
of the access channel represents another small area of potential new excavation, estimated at a max of 480
ftz. Within this maintenance excavation footprint is a patch of Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alternNlora) on the north
side of the channel, inside the breakwater approximately 32' by 12' or a maximum of 400 ftz that would be impacted
by the proposed excavation. Both previous State Permits, 59-97 and 23-08 have authorized small amounts of similar
coastal wetland impacts. The applicant proposes to stay a minimum of 5' away from all other coastal wetlands during
excavation. According to the application, approximately 2,156 cubic yards (CY) of material would be removed using
a bucket to barge method and would be disposed of on a property owned by Shore Acres Company. located behind
DA 0248 or DA 0249. Prior to work commencing the applicant would submit a consent to cross authorization from
USACE. A letter of authorization from the disposal site property owner has been included in the application, Current
water depths in the boat basin range from -1' to -3'. Current water depths in the area of the proposed access channel
range from +1.5' to -3' NLW, depths were confirmed by DCM during the January 26, 2022 site visit (see Sheet 2 of
4).
The excavation of the previously maintained boat basin and access channel would impact approximately 14,230 ftz
of Shallow Bottom. The areas of proposed new excavation would impact a maximum of 660 ftz of Shallow Bottom.
Excavation of approximately 400 ftz of coastal wetland within the previously maintained access channel would be
necessary to maintain historical use of the boat basin and has been previously permitted. An estimated total 2,156
CY of material will be disposed of impacting approximately 30,000 ftz of highground outside of the 75' AEC.
Increases in turbidity can be expected during the construction process.

The project site is located at 303 Bradley Creek Point Road, near the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW),
Wilmington, in New Hanover County. To locate the project site from the Wilmington Regional Office (WIRO), travel
east approximately 1.8 miles on Eastwood Road and turn right on to Military Cutoff Road. Travel 0.6 miles on
Military Cutoff Road, and turn left onto Aidie Road. Follow Aide Road for 0.7 miles and turn right on to Bradley
Creek Point Road., keep right for 0.12 miles and the property will be on the right.
The project site is currently maintained as a single-family residence located in a waterfront neighborhood directly
north of the mouth of Bradley Creek. The parcel is approximately 1.4 acres in size with approximately 346 feet of
shoreline, with a boat basin, 4-slip private docking facility, and access channel to the AIWW. The boat basin is
stabilized with a bulkhead and the access channel ranges in width from approximately 30'40' wide and Is located
between breakwater sills. The north breakwater is approximately 238' in length, coastal wetlands boarder the sill for
approximately 150', with the remaining approximately 88' In open water. The south breakwater is approximately 300'
in length boarding approximately 200' of coastal wetand with the remaining 100' in open water. The highground Is
vegetated primarily with ornamentals and maintained lawn grass and according to the applicant the elevation of the
property is approximately 8 feet above normal high water (NHW). Coastal wetlands consisting primarily of Smooth
Cordgrass (Spartina altemiFlora) fringe the edge of the boat basin and have migrated into a small area of the access
channel. Scattered clusters of oyster were noted during the January 26, 2022 site visit, however, the basin and
channel bottom are predominantly soft fluff mud devoid of active shellfish. The private docking facility consists of a
short access pier extending from the southern side of the property over the bulkhead and coastal wetlands into the
boat basin with a ramp extending to the north onto a 6' by 60' floating dock positioned parallel with the shoreline,
Three finger piers approximately 3' by 16' extend from the 60' floating dock perpendicular to the shoreline with a
larger 6' by 25' finger pier attached at the northern end of the 60' dock for a total of 4 slips.
State Permit No. 59-97 issued to Mr. Kittinger on May 6. 1997 authorized the bulkhead, breakwaters, maintenance
excavation, and a docking facility. The maintenance excavation footprint authorized included an approximately 60'
by 60' boat basin to a max depth of 4 mean low water (MLW) with the widest portion of the basin shown at 66' on
the drawings referenced in the permit. A 30' wide by 380' long access channel was authorized to a depth tapering to
a maximum of -5 MLW. The permit was conditioned to allow a minimum distance of 5' from the existing coastal
wetlands to excavation footprint. The Field Report cited photographic evidence of a maintenance event occurring
between 1978 and 1984. State Permit No. 59-97 was later modified on September 13,1999 to expand the private
docking facility to the existing configuration. This permit expired on December 31, 2000.
State Permit No. 23-08 was issued to Mr. Kittinger on April 24, 2008 through the Express Permitting program to
modify the existing breakwaters to close the 1 foot gap every 10 feet, which were not constructed with overlapping
breakwater sections as depicted in the drawings referenced in State Permit No. 59-97, install a boatlift, and perform
maintenance excavation to include an area of coastal wetland approximately 400 ft2 in size located within the access
channel, inside the previously authorized excavation footprint. The excavation footprint authorized through State
Permit No. 23-08 was the same as State Permit No. 59-97 with the exception of a slightly deeper cut. A depth of -5
MLW and -5.5 MLW was authorized for the boat basin and access channel respectively. Instead of modifying the
breakwaters, a minor modification was issued on June 9, 2010 to allow new breakwaters to be constructed 6° inboard
of the existing with the same 1' gaps every 10' to match the existing gaps. State Permit No. 23-08 expired September
30, 2014. According to the property owner the maintenance excavation authorized through Stat t"m
was not performed. 66iitG

Narrative
As acting agent for Joseph and Sandra Kittinger, I am submitting a CAMA Major Permit
Application for their property located at 303 Bradley Creek Point Rd, Wilmington, in New
Hanover County. The Kitzinger's have an existing boat basin, bulkhead, floating dock system and
access channel with a breakwater wall on each side leading to the AIWW. The basin and access
channel has had numerous maintenance dredging events over the years dating as far back as 1979
before the Kittinger's even owner the property which was authorized under various CAMA Major
and General Permits. The most recent CAMA Major Permit was in 2008 and unfortunately due to
an oversight it was allowed to expire.
The previous boat basin dredge footprint area measured approx. 60' by 60' to a final depth of -4'
@ normal low water (NLW) and the access channel measured 30' by 430' with final depths from
-4'@NLW adjacent to the basin to the -4'@NLW contour of the AIWW. The current proposal is
for the basin footprint area to vary from 35' to 66' in width by 50' to 60' in length to a final depth
of -4'@NLW. The reason for the change in the basin footprint is due to the existence of Coastal
Wetlands (primarily Spartina alterniflora) located along the perimeter of the basin, adjacent to the
bulkhead. The access channel dredge footprint will also vary due to the presence of Coastal
Wetlands from approx. 23' to 34' in width (34' will be a slight flare as it connects to the AIWW)
to a final depth of 4'@NLW and connect to approx. the -4' contour of the AIWW which is approx.
110' from the end of the northern breakwater. There is a small patch of Coastal Wetlands, primarily
Spartina altemiflora (approx. 400 sq. ft.) which is located along the north side of the breakwater
wall that does fall within the proposed dredge footprint. We are requesting that this small area be
allowed to be removed due to the extreme narrowing of the channel that it is causing in this area.
All excavation will be accomplished by bucket to barge as it has been accomplished in the past.
It should also be noted that the spoil disposal site will be located on private property, either
behind AIWW DA 0248 or AIWW DA 0249, both sites are owned by Shore Acres Com. The
actual site will be determined once a dredging contractor has been determined and at that time, a
consent to cross agreement will be acquired from the CORPS and a letter of authorization from
the property owner and both will be submitted to DCM for approval prior to the commencement
of any work.

received as complete on March 3, 2022 and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected
deadline for making a decision is May 17, 2022. An additional 75-day review pedod is provided by law when such
time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated
above, you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your
notice of an extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from March 3, 2022, you may request a meeting with

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at 303 Bradley Creek Point Road, near the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW),
Wilmington, in New Hanover County. To locate the project site from the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO), travel
east approximately 1.8 miles on Eastwood Road and turn right on to Military Cutoff Road. Travel 0.6 miles on
Military Cutoff Road. and turn left onto Airlie Road. Follow Airlie Road for 0.7 miles and turn right on to Bradley
Creek Point Road., keep right for 0.12 miles and the property will be on the right.
The project site is currently maintained as a single-family residence located in a waterfront neighborhood directly
north of the mouth of Bradley Creek. The parcel is approximately 1.4 acres in size with approximately 346 feet of
shoreline, with a boat basin, 4-slip private docking facility, and access channel to the AIWW. The boat basin is
stabilized with a bulkhead and the access channel ranges in width from approximately 30'40' wide and is located
between breakwater sills. The north breakwater is approximately 238' in length, coastal wetlands boarder the sill for
approximately 150', with the remaining approximately 88' in open water. The south breakwater is approximately 300'
in length boarding approximately 200' of coastal wetland with the remaining 100' in open water. The highground is
vegetated primarily with ornamentals and maintained lawn grass and according to the applicant the elevation of the
property is approximately 8 feet above normal high water (NHW). Coastal wetlands consisting primarily of Smooth
Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) fringe the edge of the boat basin and have migrated into a small area of the access
channel. Scattered clusters of oyster were noted during the January 26, 2022 site visit, however, the basin and
channel bottom are predominantly soft fluff mud devoid of active shellfish. The private docking facility consists of a
short access pier extending from the southern side of the property over the bulkhead and coastal wetlands into the
boat basin with a ramp extending to the north onto a 6' by 60' floating dock positioned parallel with the shoreline.
Three finger piers approximately 3' by 16' extend from the 60' floating dock perpendicular to the shoreline with a
larger 6' by 25' finger pier attached at the northern end of the 60' dock for a total of 4 slips.
State Permit No. 59-97 issued to Mr. Kittinger on May 6, 1997 authorized the bulkhead, breakwaters, maintenance
excavation, and a docking facility. The maintenance excavation footprint authorized included an approximately 60'
by 60' boat basin to a max depth of -4 mean low water (MLW) with the widest portion of the basin shown at 66' on
the drawings referenced in the permit. A 30' wide by 380' long access channel was authorized to a depth tapering to
a maximum of -5 MLW. The permit was conditioned to allow a minimum distance of 5' from the existing coastal
wetlands to excavation footprint. The Field Report cited photographic evidence of a maintenance event occurring
between 1978 and 1984. State Permit No. 59-97 was later modified on September 13, 1999 to expand the private
docking facility to the existing configuration. This permit expired on December 31, 2000.
State Permit No. 23-08 was issued to Mr. Kittinger on April 24, 2008 through the Express Permitting program to
modify the existing breakwaters to close the 1 foot gap every 10 feet, which were not constructed with overlapping
breakwater sections as depicted in the drawings referenced in State Permit No. 59-97, install a boatlift, and perform
maintenance excavation to include an area of coastal wetland approximately 400 ft2 in size located within the access
channel, inside the previously authorized excavation footprint. The excavation footprint authorized through State
Permit No. 23-08 was the same as State Permit No. 59-97 with the exception of a slightly deeper cut. A depth of -5
MLW and -5.5 MLW was authorized for the boat basin and access channel respectively. Instead of modifying the
breakwaters, a minor modification was issued on June 9, 2010 to allow new breakwaters to be constructed 6" inboard
of the existing with the same 1' gaps every 10' to match the existing gaps. State Permit No. 23-08 expired September
30, 2014. According to the property owner the maintenance excavation authorized through State Permit No. 23-08

They are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT
The applicant proposes to perform maintenance excavation within the existing boat basin and access channel to
connect with the federally maintained AIWW. The access channel has existing coastal wetlands that would be
impacted with the maintenance excavation. The project also includes a small area of new excavation within the
established boat basin and the waterward end of the access channel. The dimensions of the proposed excavation
footprint in the existing boat basin range from 66' to 35' in width and 50' to 60' in length due to fringing coastal
wetlands, to a depth of -4 NLW. The previous boat basin excavation footprint authorized in State Permit 59-97
references a drawing that shows a maximum width of 66'; however, the Field Report and cdaits data indicate a 60'
maximum width. This 6' difference in width requested in the current application represents a small area of
potential new excavation, estimated at a max of 180 ft2. The dimensions of the proposed access channel range
from 23' to 34' in width and 430' in length to a depth of -4 NLW. The previously permitted access channel excavation
footprint was 380' in length with a max width of 30'. According to the applicant the proposed 50' increase in length
allows the excavation to connect to the -4 NWL contour and the 4' increase in width to 34' max would occur gradually
at the waterward end of the channel as a flared end. The extra 50' in length and 4' in width proposed at the end
of the access channel represents another small area of potential new excavation, estimated at a max of 480
ft2. Within this maintenance excavation footprint is a patch of Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) on the north
side of the channel, inside the breakwater approximately 32' by 12' or a maximum of 400 ft2 that would be impacted
by the proposed excavation. Both previous State Permits, 59-97 and 23-08 have authorized small amounts of similar
coastal wetland impacts. The applicant proposes to stay a minimum of 5' away from all other coastal wetlands during
excavation. According to the application, approximately 2,156 cubic yards (CY) of material would be removed using
a bucket to barge method and would be disposed of on a property owned by Shore Acres Company. located behind
DA 0248 or DA 0249. Prior to work commencing the applicant would submit a consent to cross authorization from
USACE. A letter of authorization from the disposal site property owner has been included in the application. Current
water depths in the boat basin range from -1' to -3'. Current water depths in the area of the proposed access channel
range from +1.5' to -3' NLW, depths were confirmed by DCM during the January 26, 2022 site visit (see Sheet 2 of
4).
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The excavation of the previously maintained boat basin and access channel would impact approximately 14,230 ft2
of Shallow Bottom. The areas of proposed new excavation would impact a maximum of 660 ft2 of Shallow Bottom.
Excavation of approximately 400 ft2 of coastal wetland within the previously maintained access channel would be
necessary to maintain historical use of the boat basin and has been previously permitted. An estimated total 2,156
CY of material will be disposed of impacting approximately 30,000 ft2 of highground outside of the 75' AEC.
Increases in turbidity can be expected during the construction process.

Narrative
As acting agent for Joseph and Sandra Kittinger, I am submitting a CAMA Major Permit
Application for their property located at 303 Bradley Creek Point Rd, Wilmington, in New
Hanover County. The Kitzinger's have an existing boat basin, bulkhead, floating dock system and
access channel with a breakwater wall on each side leading to the AIWW. The basin and access
channel has had numerous maintenance dredging events over the years dating as far back as 1979
before the Kittinger's even owner the property which was authorized under various CAMA Major
and General Permits. The most recent CAMA Major Permit was in 2008 and unfortunately due to
an oversight it was allowed to expire.
The previous boat basin dredge footprint area measured approx. 60' by 60' to a final depth of -4'
@ normal low water (NLW) and the access channel measured 30' by 430' with final depths from
-4'@NLW adjacent to the basin to the -4'@NLW contour of the AIWW. The current proposal is
for the basin footprint area to vary from 35' to 66' in width by 50' to 60' in length to a final depth
of -4'@NLW. The reason for the change in the basin footprint is due to the existence of Coastal
Wetlands (primarily Spartina altemiflora) located along the perimeter of the basin, adjacent to the
bulkhead. The access channel dredge footprint will also vary due to the presence of Coastal
Wetlands from approx. 23' to 34' in width (34' will be a slight flare as it connects to the AIWW)
to a final depth of -4'@NLW and connect to approx. the -4' contour of the AIWW which is approx.
110' from the end of the northern breakwater. There is a small patch of Coastal Wetlands, primarily
Spartina altemiflora (approx. 400 sq. ft.) which is located along the north side of the breakwater
wall that does fall within the proposed dredge footprint. We are requesting that this small area be
allowed to be removed due to the extreme narrowing of the channel that it is causing in this area.
All excavation will be accomplished by bucket to barge as it has been accomplished in the past.
It should also be noted that the spoil disposal site will be located on private property, either
behind AIWW DA 0248 or AIWW DA 0249, both sites are owned by Shore Acres Com. The
actual site will be determined once a dredging contractor has been determined and at that time, a
consent to cross agreement will be acquired from the CORPS and a letter of authorization from
the property owner and both will be submitted to DCM for approval prior to the commencement
of any work.

March 4, 2022
The Division of Coastal. Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application, as acting agent for Joseph
and Sandra Kittinger, for State approval for development of the subject property located at 303 Bradley Creek Point
Road, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), in Wilmington, in New Hanover County. It was
received as complete on March 3, 2022 and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected
deadline for making a decision is May 17, 2022. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such
time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated
above, you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your
notice of an extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from March 3, 2022, you may request a meeting with
the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of your project. Such a
meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request and shall include the property
owner, developer, and project designer/consultant.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed development.
Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed
development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from
a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-
way fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your
property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the appropriate
State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if you wish to receive
a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Kittinger:
Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to perform maintenance
excavation within the existing boat basin and access channel to connect with the federally
maintained AIWW. The project will also include a small area of new excavation in wetlands
(180 square feet) within the established boat basin and the waterward end of the access channel.
The dimensions of the proposed excavation footprint in the existing boat basin range from 66
feet to 35 feet in width and 50 feet to 60 feet in length. The dimensions of the proposed access
channel range from 23 feet to 34 feet in width and 430 feet in length. Both the boat basin and
access channel will be dredged to a maximum depth of -4 Mean Low Water Level (MLWL). The
dimensions are larger than previously issued permits, resulting in another small new area of
excavation of 430 square feet.
The project will dredge and remove approximately 400 square feet of coastal wetlands.
The dredging will stay a minimum of 5 feet away from all other coastal wetlands. The dredging
area encompasses 14,890 square feet of open water, 660 square feet of which is new dredging
area. Approximately 2,156 cubic yards (CY) of material will be removed using the “bucket to
barge method” and will be disposed of on a property owned by Shore Acres Company, located
behind DA 0248.
Your proposal has been reviewed and found to be consistent with the provisions and
objectives of the CAMA-Corps Programmatic Permit process, via Regional General Permit 291
(copy attached), for construction activities that receive authorization from the State of North
Carolina. Therefore, you may commence construction activity in strict accordance with the
applicable State authorization, attached Federal special conditions, RGP-291 conditions and the
approved plan. Failure to comply with the State authorization or conditions of the Federal permit
could result in civil and/or administrative penalties.
If any change in your work is required because of unforeseen or altered conditions or for
any other reason, plans revised to show the change must be sent promptly to this office and the
North Carolina Division of Coastal Management prior to performing any such change or
alteration. Such action is necessary as revised plans must be reviewed and the authorization
modified.

1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
submitted plans, dated December 6, 2021, which are a part of this permit. Any
modification to these plans must be approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) prior to implementation.
2. A “Consent to Cross” authorization from the Corps of Engineers must be obtained prior to
crossing the Corps easement during the material disposal portion of the project. Provide a
written request and a map showing the disposal site and the crossing location to Justin
Arnette at Justin.R.Arnette@usace.army.mil.
3. Except as authorized by this permit or any USACE approved modification to this permit,
no dredge, fill, or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place at any time in the
construction or maintenance of this project within waters outside the designated permitted
boundary. This permit does not authorize temporary placement or double handling of
excavated or fill material within waters outside the permitted area.
4. Work in wetlands is prohibited during the dredging, material disposal, or any other aspects
of work associated with this project, other than what is described in the project narrative
above. All dredged material must be deposited on high ground.
5. All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other
toxic materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste,
the permittee shall immediately report it to the N.C. Division of Water Resources at (919)
733-5083, Ext. 526 or (800) 662-7956 and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution
and Hazardous Substances Control Act will be followed.
6. The permittee shall require its contractors and/or agents to comply with the terms and
conditions of this permit in the construction and maintenance of this project, and shall
provide each of its contractors and/or agents associated with the construction or
maintenance of this project with a copy of this permit. A copy of this permit, including all
conditions, shall be available at the project site during construction and maintenance of
this project.
7. The permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary to
prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the
permit area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt
fencing or similar appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the
movement of earthen fill, and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas.
-3-
Additionally, the project must remain in full compliance with all aspects of the
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973.
8. The activity must 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 in all rivers not designated as trout
waters by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM), 25
NTU's or less in all saltwater classes and in all lakes and reservoirs, and 10 NTU's or less
in trout waters, are not considered significant.
9. In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus, the
permittee must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Manatee Guidelines, and
strictly adhere to all requirements therein. The guidelines can be found at
http://www.fws.gov/nc-es/mammal/manatee_guidelines.pdf.
10. Violations of these conditions or violations of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act must be reported in writing to the Wilmington
District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers within 24 hours of the permittee’s discovery of the
violation.

of March 3, 1899 (U.S.C. 403), and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), is
hereby issued by authority of the Secretary of the Army by
District Engineer
U.S. Army Engineer District, Wilmington
Corps of Engineers
69 Darlington A venue
Wilmington, North Carolina 28403-1343
TO AUTHORIZE THOSE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES IN THE 20 COASTAL
COUNTIES RECEIVING PRIOR APPROVAL FROM THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
IN THE FORM OF A COASTAL AREA MANAGEMENT ACT (CAMA) PERMIT, AND/OR
A STATE DREDGE AND FILL PERMIT, AND IF REQUIRED, A WATER QUALITY
CERTIFICATION, THAT ARE OTHERWISE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL
AUTHORIZATION IN THE FORM OF A NATIONWIDE PERMIT OR ANOTHER RGP.
Operating Procedures
a. Applications for joint state and federal authorization under this programmatic RGP will
be accepted through the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM). Receipt of
a complete application by the NCDCM will initiate the State's field review that will include a site
visit and preparation of a Field Investigation Report and a state Bio-Report. The NCDCM will
forward a copy of the complete application, its Field Investigation Report, and its Bio-Report, to
the appropriate Corps of Engineers field office, thereby initiating federal review of the project.
The Corps, upon receipt of an application, will immediately assign an action identification
number, acknowledge receipt thereof, and examine the application to assure that it can be
processed pursuant to this programmatic RGP. The applicant and the NCDCM will be furnished
written notification of the Corps' determination. Notification to the applicant will include a brief
description of the administrative process.
b. For those proposals that may result in a discharge into waters of the U.S., including
wetlands, the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) and the applicant will be
informed regarding the applicant's need to obtain a Water Quality Certification in accordance
with section 401 of the Clean Water Act.
c. If, at any time, the Corps determines that a proposed activity is eligible for
authorization under another regional RGP or a nationwide permit (NWP), this procedure may be
terminated and the activity authorized pursuant to the terms and conditions of the appropriate
RGP orNWP.
d. The permit review process conducted by the NCDCM is a public process involving
publication of public notices in local newspapers, public hearings, and various public appeal
procedures. The Corps may issue a separate public notice for a specific proposal if it is deemed
necessary for compliance with appropriate laws, regulation, and guidance.
e. This RGP does not, in any way, alter established procedures or responsibilities, as
required by federal laws, memoranda of agreements (MOA's) or administrative regulations, with
respect to the Corps' coordination with appropriate review agencies. The applicant will continue
to have the opportunity to rebut any objections to a proposal.
f. The Corps will provide copies of the application and plans, the NCDCM's Field
Investigation Report, and the state Bio-Report, to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and any other federal agency that the Corps determines to be a necessary review agency
(collectively, the "Federal Agencies"). Receipt of this material will initiate the Federal Agencies'
review. The Federal Agencies will be allowed sufficient time, normally thirty (30) days, to
provide the Corps with their comments and recommendations, including any proposed permit
special conditions and recommendations of denial. The Corps may grant extensions of time for
Federal Agency review if justified by unusual circumstances. If an extension is granted that
would substantially delay an NCDCM decision, the application may be removed from this RGP
process.
g. The Corps will receive and review all Federal Agency comments as well as any
applicant rebuttal. Provided all Federal Agencies and the Corps are in agreement, the Corps will
prepare a coordinated federal position incorporating all Federal Agency comments, including
proposed permit special conditions and any recommendations for denial. The Corps will
typically furnish this coordinated federal position to the NCDCM within 45 days of its receipt of
the complete application, and copies of the Field Investigation Report and Bio-Report.
h. If the Corps does not concur with a Federal Agency's comments or recommendations,
the Corps will contact the Federal Agency and advise it of the Corps' position. Attempts to
resolve the issue may include initiating the referral procedures outlined by current memoranda of
agreement (MOA's) between the Department of the Army and the agency. No coordinated
federal position will be furnished to the NCDCM until and unless the Corps receives written
agreement from the Federal Agency that all issues have been resolved to the satisfaction of that
agency.
i. If any of the recommendations and/or conditions included in the coordinated federal
position are unacceptable to the NCDCM, the NCDCM will contact the Corps within ten (10)
days of receipt of the coordinated federal position and attempt to resolve the conflict. If
resolution of the conflict involves changes to the conditions or recommendations provided by the
Federal Agencies, the provisions of paragraphs g. and h. (above) will apply. If the conflict is
resolved to the satisfaction of the Corps and any affected Federal Agency, the NCDCM permit
will be issued and the authority of this RGP will apply.
j. If a Federal Agency conflict is not resolved within the time necessary for a decision by
the NCDCM, the NCDCM may proceed, independently, to conclude the state action without
inclusion of the federal position. In such case, the applicant and the NCDCM will be notified
immediately, in writing, that the state permit does not satisfy the federal permit requirements and
that the proposal in question may not proceed without federal authorization.
k. If the coordinated federal position is not in conflict with state agencies' positions, law,
regulation, or policy, and is acceptable to the NCDCM, a state permit will be developed by the
NCDCM fully incorporating the state and federal positions. The NCDCM will furnish copies of
the final permit to the applicant and the Corps. The NCDWR will furnish a copy of the Section
401 Water Quality Certification, if required, to the applicant and the Corps. The Corps will not
confirm the authorization of a proposed project under this RGP until the issuance of the NCDCM
permit and, if required, the Section 401 Water Quality Certification.
1. If the NCDCM permit or Section 401 Water Quality Certification is denied, the
applicant will be informed that federal authorization is denied without prejudice.
m. No work may proceed under this RGP until the Wilmington District Engineer or his
representative provides written verification that the procedures and conditions of the RGP have
been satisfied.
n. The NCDCM and the Corps will monitor all permitted work and periodically inspect
projects for compliance with permit conditions and applicable state and federal regulations. If
any violation of the NCDCM permit is discovered which would also constitute a violation of the
federal position, both the NCDCM and the Corps, in accordance with their respective regulations
and policies, may take enforcement action.
o. This RGP will not be used to authorize an activity when the Wilmington District
Engineer determines that the proposed activity would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment and therefore require preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS).
General Conditions
a. Authorized structures located on or adjacent to Federally authorized waterways will be
constructed in accordance with the latest setback criteria established by the Wilmington District
Engineer. You may review the setback policy at
http://www.saw.usace.anny.mil/Missions/Navigation/Setbacks.aspx. This RGP does not
authorize the construction of hardened or permanently fixed structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback, unless the activity is approved by the Corps. The Permittee must
obtain approval from the Corps prior to the construction of any structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback.
b. Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP, no
excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place, at any time in the
construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not
authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or
wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities
connected with this project.
c. Authorization under this RGP does not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state,
or local authorizations.
d. All work authorized by this RGP must comply with the terms and conditions of the
applicable Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification for this RGP issued by the
North Carolina Division of Water Resources.
e. The Permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary
to prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the
permit area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or
similar appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of
earthen fill, and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project must
remain in full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973
(North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4).
f. The activities authorized by this RGP must not interfere with the public's right to free
navigation on all navigable waters of the U.S. 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 to the authorized
work for a reason other than safety.
g. The Permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if,
in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause umeasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
Permittee will be required, upon due notice from the Corps , to remove, relocate, or alter the
structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim
shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
h. The Permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of the permit for the verified
individual activity, may apply for an individual permit, or will, without expense to the United
States and in such time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized
representative may direct, restore the affected water of the US to its former conditions.
i. This RGP does not authorize any activity that would conflict with a federal project's
congressionally authorized purposes, established limitations or restrictions, or limit an agency's
ability to conduct necessary operation and maintenance functions. Per Section 14 of the Rivers
and Harbors Act of 1899, as amended (33 U.S.C. 408), no project that has the potential to take
possession of or make use of for any purpose, or build upon, alter, deface, destroy, move, injure,
or obstruct a federally constructed work or project, including, but not limited to, levees, dams,
jetties, navigation channels, borrow areas, dredged material disposal sites, flood control projects,
etc., shall be permitted unless the project has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate
Corps approval authority.
j. The Permittee shall obtain a Consent to Cross Government Easement from the
Wilmington District's Land Use Coordinator prior to any crossing of the Corps easement and/or
prior to commencing construction of any structures, authorized dredging, or other work within
the right-of-way of, or in proximity to, a federally designated disposal area. The Land Use
Coordinator may be contacted at: CESAW-OP-N, 69 Darlington Avenue, Wilmington, North
Carolina 28403-1343, email: SAWWeb-NAV@usace.army.mil.
k. The Permittee will allow the Wilmington District Engineer or his/her representative to
inspect the authorized activity at any time deemed necessary to assure that the activity is being
performed or maintained in strict accordance with the Special and General Conditions of this
permit.
1. This RGP does not grant any property rights or exclusive privileges.
m. This RGP does not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others.
n. This RGP does not authorize the interference with any existing or proposed federal
project.
o. In issuing this RGP, the Federal Government does not assume any liability for the
following:
(1) Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of other permitted or
unpermitted activities or from natural causes.
(2) Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of current or future
activities undertaken by or on behalf of the United States in the public interest.
(3) Damages to persons, property, or to other permitted or unpermitted activities or
structures caused by the activity authorized by this RGP.
( 4) Design or construction deficiencies associated with the permitted work.
(5) Damage claims associated with any future modification, suspension, or
revocation of this RGP.
p. Authorization provided by this RGP may be modified, suspended, or revoked in whole
or in part if the Wilmington District Engineer, acting for the Secretary of the Army, determines
that such action would be in the best public interest. The term of this RGP shall be five (5) years
unless subject to modification, suspension, or revocation. Any modification, suspension or
revocation of this authorization will not be the basis for any claim for damages against the
United States Government.
q. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System,
or in a river officially designated by Congress as a "study river" for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency with
direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed
activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic designation or study status. Information on
Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal land management agency
responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or "study river" (e.g., National Park
Service, U.S. Forest Service, etc.)
r. This RGP does not authorize any activity within, or directly affecting, a marine
sanctuary established by the Secretary of Commerce under authority of Section 302 of the
Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972, unless the applicant provides the
Corps with a certification from the Secretary of Commerce that the proposed activity is
consistent with the purposes of Title III of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act.
Information on marine sanctuaries may be obtained at http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/#MN.
Permittees may not begin work until they provide the Corps with a written certification from the
Department of Commerce.
s. In cases where the Wilmington District Engineer determines that the activity may
affect properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic Places and its
codified regulations, the National Historic Preservation Amendment Acts of 1980 and 1992, the
Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987 and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation
Act, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied. Permittees may not begin work until notified by
the Corps that the requirements of the NHPA have been satisfied and that the activity is
authorized.
t. If you discover any previously unknown historic, cultural, or archeological remains
and artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this RGP, you must immediately
notify the Wilmington District Engineer of what you have found, and to the maximum extent
practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and artifacts until the
required coordination has been completed. The Wilmington District Engineer will initiate the
Federal, tribal, and state coordination required to determine if the items or remains warrant a
recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
u. Endangered Species.
(1) No activity is authorized under this RGP which is likely to jeopardize the continued existence
of a threatened or endangered species directly or indirectly or a species proposed for such
designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will
directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity
is authorized under this RGP which "may affect" a listed species or critical habitat, unless
Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed.
(2) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of
the ESA. Federal prospective Permittees (and when FHWA is the lead federal agency) must
provide the District Engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance
with those requirements. The District Engineer will review the documentation and determine
whether it is sufficient to address ESA compliance for the RGP activity, or whether additional
ESA consultation is necessary.
(3) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) or NMFS, the District Engineer may add species-specific endangered species
conditions to the RGP verification letter for a project.
( 4) Authorization of an activity by a RGP does not authorize the "take" of a threatened or
endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization ( e.g., an
ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with "incidental take" provisions, etc.) from the
USFWS or the NMFS, the ESA prohibits any person subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. to
take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap,
capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word "harm" in the
definition of "take" means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may include
significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by
significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding, or sheltering.
(5) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their critical habitat can
be obtained directly from the USFWS in Raleigh, North Carolina at the address provided below,
or from the USFWS and NMFS via their world wide web pages at http://www.fws.gov/
or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and http://www.noaa.gov/fisheries.html respectively.
The Raleigh USFWS Office covers all NC counties east of, and including, Richmond,
Montgomery, Randolph, Guilford, and Rockingham Counties.

Telephone: (919) 856-4520
(6) The Wilmington District, USFWS, NCDOT, and the FHWA have conducted programmatic
Section 7(a)(2) consultation for a number of federally listed species and habitat, and
programmatic consultation concerning other federally listed species and/or habitat may occur in
the future. The result of completed programmatic consultation is a Programmatic Biological
Opinion (PBO) issued by the USFWS. These PBOs contain mandatory terms and conditions to
implement the reasonable and prudent measures that are associated with "incidental take" of
whichever species or critical habitat is covered by a specific PBO. Authorization under this RGP
is conditional upon the Permittee's compliance with all the mandatory terms and conditions
associated with incidental take of the applicable PBO (or PB Os), which are incorporated by
reference in this RGP. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions associated with incidental
take of an applicable PBO, where a take of the federally listed species occurs, would constitute
an unauthorized take by the Permittee, and would also constitute Permittee non-compliance with
the authorization under this RGP. If the terms and conditions of a specific PBO ( or PB Os) apply
to a project, the Corps will include this/these requirements in any RGP verification that may be
issued for a project. The USFWS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with the
terms and conditions of its PBO, and with the ESA.
(7) Northern long-eared bat (NLEB) (Myotis septentrionalis). Standard Local Operating
Procedures for Endangered Species (SLOPES) for the NLEB have been approved by the Corps
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. See
http://www.saw. usace.army .mil/Missions/Regulatory-Permit-Program/ Agency-
Coordination/ESA/. This SLOPES details how the Corps will make determinations of effect to
the NLEB when the Corps is the lead federal agency for an NCDOT project that is located in the
western 41 counties of North Carolina. This SLOPES do not address NCDOT projects (either
federal or state funded) in the eastern 59 counties in North Carolina. Note that if another federal
agency is the lead federal agency for a project in the western 41 counties, procedures for
satisfying the requirements of Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA will be dictated by that agency and will
not be applicable for consideration under the SLOPES; however, information that demonstrates
the lead federal agency's (if other than the Corps) compliance with Section 7(a)(2) / 4(d) Rule
for the NLEB, will be required in the PCN. Note that at the time of issuance of this RGP, the
federal listing status of the NLEB as "Threatened" is being litigated at the National level. If, as a
result of litigation, the NLEB is federally listed as "Endangered", this general condition (''s")
will no longer be applicable because the 4( d) Rule, and this NLEB SLOPES, will no longer
apply/be valid.
(8) In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus, the
applicant must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Manatee Guidelines, and strictly
adhere to all requirements therein. The guidelines can be found at
https ://www.fws.gov/raleigh/pdfs/ManateeGuidelines201 7 .pdf
(9) If the Permittee discovers or observes any live, damaged, injured, or dead individual of an
endangered or threatened species during construction, the Permittee shall immediately notify the
Wilmington District Engineer so that required coordination can be initiated with the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service.
v. Permittees are advised that development activities in or near a floodway may be
subject to the National Flood Insurance Program that prohibits any development, including fill,
within a floodway that results in any increase in base flood elevations. This RGP does not
authorize any activity prohibited by the National Flood Insurance Program.
w. The Permittee must install and maintain, at his/her expense, any signal lights and
signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized
facilities. For further information, the Permittee should contact Coast Guard Sector North
Carolina at (910) 772-2191 or email Coast Guard Fifth District at cgd5waterways@uscg.mil.
x. 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.
y. It is possible that an authorized structure may be damaged by wave wash from
passing vessels. The issuance of this RGP does not relieve the Permittee from taking all proper
steps to ensure the integrity of the permitted structure and the safety of moored boats. The
Permittee will not hold the United States liable for any such damage.
z. Structures and their attendant utilities, authorized by this RGP, located on lands subject
to an easement in favor of the United States for the operation, maintenance, improvement, and
enlargement of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), will be removed at the expense of
the Permittee, in the event that, in the judgment of the Corps acting on behalf of the United
States, the lands are needed at any time for any purpose within the scope of the easement.
Permanent buildings will not be constructed within the easement.
aa. The Permittee must maintain any structure or work authorized by this RGP in good
condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this RGP. The Permittee is not
relieved of this requirement if the Permittee abandons the structure or work. Transfer in fee
simple of the work authorized by this RGP will automatically transfer this RGP to the property's
new owner, with all of the rights and responsibilities enumerated herein. The Permittee must
inform any subsequent owner of all activities undertaken under the authority of this RGP and
provide the subsequent owner with a copy of the terms and conditions of this RGP.
bb. At his/her sole discretion, any time during the processing cycle, the Wilmington
District Engineer may determine that this RGP will not be applicable to a specific proposal. In
such case, the procedures for processing an individual permit in accordance with 33 CFR 325
will be available.
cc. Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP,
all fill material placed in waters or wetlands shall be generated from an upland source and will be
clean and free of any pollutants except in trace quantities.
dd Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP,
all excavated material will be disposed of in approved upland disposal areas.
ee. Activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract
to commence in reliance upon this RGP will remain authorized provided the activity is
completed within twelve months of the date of the RGP's expiration, modification, or revocation.
Activities completed under the authorization of this RGP that were in effect at the time the
activity was completed continue to be authorized by the RGP.

GUIDELINES FOR AVOIDING IMPACTS TO THE WEST INDIAN MANATEE
Precautionary Measures for Construction Activities in North Carolina Waters
The West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), also known as the Florida manatee, is a Federally-listed
endangered aquatic mammal protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.) and the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as amended (16 U.S.C 1461 et seq.). The
manatee is also listed as endangered under the North Carolina Endangered Species Act of 1987 (Article
25 of Chapter 113 of the General Statutes). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is the lead
Federal agency responsible for the protection and recovery of the West Indian manatee under the
provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Adult manatees average 10 feet long and weigh about 2,200 pounds, although some individuals have been
recorded at lengths greater than 13 feet and weighing as much as 3,500 pounds. Manatees are commonly
found in fresh, brackish, or marine water habitats, including shallow coastal bays, lagoons, estuaries, and
inland rivers of varying salinity extremes. Manatees spend much of their time underwater or partly
submerged, making them difficult to detect even in shallow water. While the manatee’s principal
stronghold in the United States is Florida, the species is considered a seasonal inhabitant of North
Carolina with most occurrences reported from June through October.
To protect manatees in North Carolina, the Service’s Raleigh Field Office has prepared precautionary
measures for general construction activities in waters used by the species. Implementation of these
measures will allow in-water projects which do not require blasting to proceed without adverse impacts to
manatees. In addition, inclusion of these guidelines as conservation measures in a Biological Assessment
or Biological Evaluation, or as part of the determination of impacts on the manatee in an environmental
document prepared pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act, will expedite the Service’s review
of the document for the fulfillment of requirements under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act.
These measures include:
1 The project manager and/or contractor will inform all personnel associated with the project that
manatees may be present in the project area, and the need to avoid any harm to these endangered
mammals. The project manager will ensure that all construction personnel know the general appearance
of the species and their habit of moving about completely or partially submerged in shallow water. All
construction personnel will be informed that they are responsible for observing water-related activities for
the presence of manatees.
2. The project manager and/or the contractor will advise all construction personnel that there are civil and
criminal penalties for harming, harassing, or killing manatees which are protected under the Marine
Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.
2
3. If a manatee is seen within 100 yards of the active construction and/or dredging operation or vessel
movement, all appropriate precautions will be implemented to ensure protection of the manatee. These
precautions will include the immediate shutdown of moving equipment if a manatee comes within 50 feet
of the operational area of the equipment. Activities will not resume until the manatee has departed the
project area on its own volition (i.e., it may not be herded or harassed from the area).
4. Any collision with and/or injury to a manatee will be reported immediately. The report must be made
to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (ph. 919-856-4520), the National Marine Fisheries Service (ph. 252-
728-8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (ph. 252-448-1546).
5. A sign will be posted in all vessels associated with the project where it is clearly visible to the vessel
operator. The sign should state:
CAUTION: The endangered manatee may occur in these waters during the warmer months,
primarily from June through October. Idle speed is required if operating this vessel in shallow
water during these months. All equipment must be shut down if a manatee comes within 50 feet
of the vessel or operating equipment. A collision with and/or injury to the manatee must be
reported immediately to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (919-856-4520), the National Marine
Fisheries Service (252-728-8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (252-
448-1546).
6. The contractor will maintain a log detailing sightings, collisions, and/or injuries to manatees during
project activities. Upon completion of the action, the project manager will prepare a report which
summarizes all information on manatees encountered and submit the report to the Service’s Raleigh Field
Office.
7. All vessels associated with the construction project will operate at “no wake/idle” speeds at all times
while in water where the draft of the vessel provides less than a four foot clearance from the bottom. All
vessels will follow routes of deep water whenever possible.
8. If siltation barriers must be placed in shallow water, these barriers will be: (a) made of material in
which manatees cannot become entangled; (b) secured in a manner that they cannot break free and
entangle manatees; and, (c) regularly monitored to ensure that manatees have not become entangled.
Barriers will be placed in a manner to allow manatees entry to or exit from essential habitat.

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
4) A buffer shall be maintained around coastal wetlands within the boat basin as depicted in the attached
workplan drawings.
5) All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of waters
and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. In the event of a spill of
petroleum products or any other hazardous waste, the permittee shall immediately report it to the National
Response Center at (800) 424-8802 and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and Hazardous
Substances Control Act will be followed.
Dredge Material Disposal
6) The diked disposal area shall be constructed a sufficient distance from the normal high-water level or
any marsh and sufficiently maintained to eliminate the possibility of dike erosion or dredge material
deposition into surrounding wetlands or waters.
7) No dredge material shall be placed within 30 feet of the normal high-water line.
8) All excavated materials shall be confined above normal high-water and landward of regularly or
irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spillover of
solids into any marsh or surrounding waters. The barriers shall be maintained and functional until the
site is graded and stabilized.
9) The dredge material disposal area shall be inspected and approved by a representative of the Division of
Coastal Management prior to the commencement of any dredging activities.
Oyster Relocation
10) To reduce direct impacts to oyster resources, the permittee shall, in consultation with NC Division of
Marine Fisheries, relocate all oysters falling within the dredge footprint to an area immediately adjacent
to the project area in similar water depths and sediment type.
Maintenance Clause
11) The Division of Coastal Management shall be notified in writing at least two (2) weeks in advance of
any maintenance excavation work authorized by this permit, and such notification shall include:
A. The number of the original permit.
B. A statement that no dimensional changes are proposed.
C. A copy of the original permit plans with cross-hatching indicating the area to be maintained, the
area to be used for dredge material disposal, and the estimated amount of material to be removed.
The location, design and holding capacity of the dredge material disposal site shall be approved
by a representative of the Division prior to the initiation of any maintenance dredging activities.
D. The date of map revision and the permittee’s signature shown anew on the original plan.

Sedimentation and Erosion Control
13) In order to protect water quality, runoff from construction shall not visibly increase the amount of
suspended sediments in adjacent waters.
14) Appropriate sedimentation and erosion control devices, measures or structures shall be implemented to
ensure that eroded materials do not enter adjacent wetlands, watercourses or properties.
