Subject: Dare County Hatteras Inlet Channel Maintenance Project: Modification #lA
Dear Mr. Trowell;
4038 Masonboro Loop Road
Wilmington, North Carolina
Tel: [phone]
[e-mail]
In 2016, Dare County sought permission to conduct maintenance dredging of the Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel
as needed on a year-round basis, in the same manner that the USACE maintains Rollinson Channel, the Hatteras to
Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel, and the other federally authorized navigation channels throughout the state. A
Major CAMA Permit (#129-16) was subsequently issued by the State of North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management (DCM) to Dare County in December 2016 for the maintenance of the connector channel. This permit
prohibits maintenance activities from April 1 to September 30 without prior approval from the DCM in consultation
with appropriate resource agencies. A DOA permit (SAW-2016-02140) was also subsequently issued to Dare County
for the proposed action in March 2017. The DOA permit included a special condition under the heading "ESA"
prohibiting maintenance of the channel from April I to September 30 without notification to the Corps of Engineers
Regulatory Division in coordination with the appropriate resource agencies. Since the permits were issued, Dare
County has coordinated with the DCM and US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) twice to obtain relief from the
dredge window, which allowed for dredge operations in May and September of 2017, respectively. The County is
currently coordinating additional events scheduled to occur in March 2018.
APTIM, on behalf of Dare County, previously submitted a permit modification request to allow for a widening of the
authorized channel from 100 ft to 200 ft. in order to minimize the possibility that dredging will be required during the
moratorium established by federal and state permits. Through recent conversations with USACE Navigation Branch
staff, we've been made aware that the condition of the proposed channel as of January 25t", was such that in order to
complete the dredging of the channel in the time budgeted, the USACE has requested the use of a temporary disposal
site located approximately 500 ft west of the proposed channel. This will allow the dredge and crew to efficiently
excavate a pilot channel across the shoal.
The proposed plan is to dredge on the south side of the channel during the initial days of dredging and temporarily
dump approximately 500 cubic yards in the temporary disposal site indicated on the attached map. The attached
drawing illustrates the proposed channel as well as the proposed temporary disposal site. The USACE has stated that
within 4 to 5 days of commencing dredging, they expect to be able to dredge material dropped in the disposal site and
transport it to the permitted offshore disposal site.

/ The USACE is prcygsing12 hour operations for the dredge due to current staffing. This requires the ship to return
to dock each evening. If the dredge were to work on the north side of the shoal and dredge south to open a channel
across the shoal, the vessel would likely be trapped in the channel for several days while they opened the pilot channel.
Therefore dredging from north to south across the shoal is not feasible.
All other activities and conditions as specified in the existing permits and the previously requested permit modifications
dated February 9, 2018, would persist. As specified in the existing permits, the channel position would not be maintained
within a "fixed" location, but rather it would follow deep water at the time maintenance is required. In addition,
maintenance activities would continue to utilize the USACE dredges (sidecast and special purpose) to conduct
Connector Channel maintenance. Dredging activities would be performed by USACE-owned dredge plants and limited
to the area within Connector Channel Corridor domain, as depicted in the original permit drawings (and attached here).
The purpose of this request is to minirnize the number of requests for relief to dredge within the dredge moratorium
(April lthroguh September 30). In doing so, the proposed modification is expected to ultimately result in positive
impacts to the natural resources otherwise at risk during dredging events taking place outside of the environmental
window.
Please contact me anytime should you have any questions or need anything in addition.

Subject. Dare County Hatteras Inlet Channel Maintenance Project: Modification #1
Dear Mr. Trowell:
In 2016, Dare County sought permission to conduct maintenance dredging of the Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel
as needed on a year-round basis, in the same manner that the USACE maintains Rollinson Channel and the Hatteras
to Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel, as well as other federally authorized navigation channels throughout the state.
A Major CAMA Permit (#129-16) was subsequently issued by the State of North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management (DCM) to Dare County in December 2016 for the maintenance of the connector channel. This permit
prohibits maintenance activities from April 1 to September 30 without prior approval from the DCM in consultation
with appropriate resource agencies. A DOA permit (SAW-2016-02140) was also subsequently issued to Dare County
for the proposed action in March 2017. The DOA permit included a special condition under the heading "FSA"
prohibiting maintenance of the channel from April 1 to September 30 without notification to the Corps of Engineers
Regulatory Division in coordination with the appropriate resource agencies. Since the permits were issued, Dare
County has coordinated with the DCM and US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) twice to obtain relief from the
dredge window, which allowed for dredge operations in May and September of 2017, respectively. The County is
currently coordinating additional events scheduled to occur between now and early spring.
In order to conduct advanced maintenance dredging of the connector channel and minimive the need to request relief
from the USACE and DCM for future maintenance events conducted between April 1 and September 30, Dare
County is requesting the modification of both the DOA Permit (SAW-2016-02140) and Major CAMA. Permit (#129-
16) to increase the allowable width of the channel from 100' to 200'. This modification is expected to allow the
County in cooperation with the NC Division of Water Resources and the USACE to conduct advanced maintenance
dredging as time and financial resources permit This is the only modification being requested at this time and the
County is not requesting a change to the permitted depth of -12.0 ft. MLW.
Since the initial design of the proposed channel, the inlet gorge appears to be migrating to the east (toward Hatteras
Island). In laying out the proposed channel locations for recent dredging events, it appears that the eastern end of the
channel is approaching the eastern boundary of the Connector Channel Corridor. Dare County is also requesting that
the Connector Channel Corridor be expanded so as to include the location of the inlet gorge and ensure that
maintenance of the proposed channel is confined within the approved corridor. As required in Condition #8 of the
Major CAMA Permit #129-16 and Condition #7 of the DOA permit SAW-2016-02140, an underwater archeological

survey vWbe conducted by a qualified archeologist prior to the dredging of any previously "un-dredged areas"
identified by the Division of Coastal Management.
All other activities and conditions as specified in the existing permits would persist. As specified in the existing permits,
the channel position would not be maintained within a "fixed" location, but rather it would follow deep water at the
time maintenance is required. In addition, maintenance activities would continue to utilize the USACE dredges (sidecast
and special purpose) to conduct Connector Channel maintenance. Dredging activities would be performed by USACE-
owned dredge plants and limited to the area within Connector Channel Corridor domain, as depicted in the original
permit drawings (and attached here). Material excavated by the special purpose dredge would be disposed in a previously
authorized nearshore disposal site in the Atlantic Ocean just south of Ocracoke Island (Appendix A). During the
October 2017 maintenance event, approximately 47,000 cubic yards of material was excavated by the dredge. In light
of the proposed increase in channel width from 100' to 200', future dredge events within the same location would entail
dredging approximately 100,000 cubic yards of material. Again, it is not possible to determine the volume of material
required for future dredge events due to the fact that the deep water may meander from its current location. The
nearshore disposal site will remain located approximately 1500 in from the north end of the island, in approximately -
10 ft. MLW. This depth is considered well within the active littoral system and within the depth of closure.
As stated above, the purpose of the request is to minimize the number of requests for relief to dredge within the dredge
moratorium (April 1 throguh September 30). In doing so, the proposed modification should ultimately result in positive
impacts to the natural resources otherwise at risk during dredging events taking place outside of the environmental
window.
Attached are draft engineering drawings showing the previously permitted channel (100-foot width) and the proposed
widened channel (200-foot width). Also shown on the drawings is the footprint of the proposed expansion of the
Connector Channel Corridor. Please contact me anytime should you have any questions or need anything in addition.

Please send any comments your agency may have to Gregg Bodnar at the DCM Morehead City
Headquarters office within 14 days of the receipt of this memo.
Please find enclosed correspondence dated 9 February 2018 from Brad Rosov, Agent, APTIM, for Dare
County, requesting a permit modification. State Permit No. 129-16 was issued on 20 December 2016 for the
maintenance dredging of a 100' wide'connecto( channel to the Hatteras inlet gorge within a prescribed box
to follow the deepest channel at the time of the dredging event. The "dredge box" is located on the Hyde
County side of Hatteras inlet. To date, there are two different channels that have experienced a maintenance
dredge event since issuance of the permit. These dredge events were conducted last year in the dredge box
authorized by this permit. The first dredge event was undertaken in May and required relief from the 1 April
to September 30 dredge moratorium dates. This dredge event took place in the channel on the north side of
the dredge box and was completed on 15 May 2017. This channel quickly shoaled in which necessitated a
second dredge event in a different location. The second dredge event took place in the channel on the south
side of the dredge box and also required moratorium relief. The moratorium relief granted for the second
dredge event was for "no more than 10 consecutive days of dredging' and was undertaken in September
2017. Both dredge events utilized the USACOE sidecast dredge'Meritt'.
Dare County is currently requesting to modify the permit to widen the width of the authorized channel from
1 00'to 200' and to expand Connector Channel Corridor on the eastern end to include the location of the inlet
gorge. The stated purpose and need for the wider channel is to lessen the frequency of maintenance
excavation events and to reduce or eliminate dredge moratorium relief requests. The proposed methodology
and permitted depth of -17 MLW remains unchanged. Please contact Gregg Bodnar at the Morehead City
District office ([phone]) if you have any questions.

SUBJECT: STATE PERMIT NO. 129-16 MINOR MODIFICATION
Dare County Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel Maintenance
By copy of this memo, DCM is requesting that the NC DCM Fishery Habitat Specialist provide any
comment you may have on the proposed project to Gregg Bodnar, Asst. Major Permits Coordinator
for DCM.
Please send any comments your agency may have to Gregg Bodnar at the DCM Morehead City
Headquarters office within 14 days of the receipt of this memo.
Please find enclosed correspondence dated 9 February 2018 from Brad Rosov, Agent, APTIM, for Dare
County, requesting a permit modification. State Permit No. 129-16 was issued on 20 December 2016 for the
maintenance dredging of a 100' wide "connector' channel to the Hatteras inlet gorge within a prescribed box
to follow the deepest channel at the time of the dredging event. The "dredge box" is located on the Hyde
County side of Hatteras inlet. To date, there are two different channels that have experienced a maintenance
dredge event since issuance of the permit. These dredge events were conducted last year in the dredge box
authorized by this permit. The first dredge event was undertaken in May and required relief from the 1 April
to September 30 dredge moratorium dates. This dredge event took place in the channel on the north side of
the dredge box and was completed on 15 May 2017. This channel quickly shoaled in which necessitated a
second dredge event in a different location. The second dredge event took place in the channel on the south
side of the dredge box and also required moratorium relief. The moratorium relief granted for the second
dredge event was for "no more than 10 consecutive days of dredging" and was undertaken in September
2017. Both dredge events utilized the USACOE sidecast dredge "Merritt".
Dare County is currently requesting to modify the permit to widen the width of the authorized channel from
100' to 200' and to expand Connector Channel Corridor on the eastern end to include the location of the inlet
gorge. The stated purpose and need for the wider channel is to lessen the frequency of maintenance
excavation events and to reduce or eliminate dredge moratorium relief requests. The proposed methodology
and permitted depth of -12' MLW remains unchanged. Please contact Gregg Bodnar at the Morehead City
District office ([phone]) if you have any questions.

SUBJECT: Minor Modification of State Permit Number 129-16, Dredging of Connector Channel Area
within Hatteras Inlet, SAW-2016-02140, Dare and Hyde County, ER 16-2031,
We received a memorandum from Steve Trowell of your Washington office regarding the above application for
minor pemut modification and would like to take this opportunity to comment.
The proposed increase of allowable channel width from 100' to 200' and the eastward expansion of the
connector channel to maintain access to the deeper water of Hatteras inlet gorge is within the area surveyed by
Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. in September 2017.
As the proposed permit expansion area has been previously surveyed and cleared for potentially significant
cultural resources and the applicant states there is no requested change to Condition #8 of the pemlit requiring
that "prior to the initiation of dredging activities ... outside of previously dredged areas, a comprehensive
underwater archaeological survey shall be carried out for the entire project area," our office has no objection to
the modifications as proposed.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the
Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR
Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment,
contact Renee Gledhill -Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919-807-6579 or
environmental.reviewna ncdcr.gov. In all future communication concerning this project, please cite the above
referenced tracking number.

Morning Mr. Winslow,
I apologize in advance for asking about comments for a project that technically our deadline request for comments have
not expired, but as you probably know Dare Co. is very interested in a resolution to the issues with the connector
channel. So I wanted to contact you to see if there was anything you may need from my office to help in your comment

Thank you again for your time,

I have no objections to the proposal to modify permit 129-16 to allow for the widening of the Hatteras Connector
Channel from 100' to 200' providing all previous conditions are adhered to. Hopefully this will reduce the need for
frequency of dredging during the biological moratorium.

Subject: Dare County Hatteras Inlet Connector, 129-16 modification
Gregg,
NCWRC has reviewed and considered the request to widen the allowable dredge channel from 100' to 200'. This request
is presented by the county in attempt to remove enough material to keep the channel open longer and minimize the
need to dredge within the dredge moratorium of April 1—September 30. After review, we do not believe the project will
have significant impacts to wildlife resources and do not object to the modification as long as all other permit conditions
remain.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this modification. If I can be of further assistance, please to not hesitate
to call.

Subject: Hatteras Inlet Connector Channel
Steve,

As we discussed attached is a chart developed by the USACE that shows their proposed channel. Note that they have
limited this channel to 100 ft. wide in the interest of time that they have to conduct the work. They may try to widen
the turn which is why we need the permit mod to widen to 200 ft. before they start March 14th. Also on the chart, you
will see a red line to the west of the channel with a note on the map that reads "Temporary disposal site. Approximately
5000 cy. This are will only be used until the dredge has enough depth to get acreoss the shoal. We will return and pick
up the material and take it to the near shore disposal." This is the temporary dump area we discussed on the
phone. The USACE has asked for the temporary disposal area to maximize dredge efficiency. If they are not allowed to
do this, they would have to wait for high tide only and dredge partial loads to make it over the shallowest part of the
channel to sail out to the offshore disposal site. Please let me know if you need anything more on my end to make a
decision on this request. I believe that is going to be one of the first places they want to dredge so we will want to have
a decision by March 14th or earlier if possible.
Kind Regards,

Afternoon Renee,
I wanted to call directly but am slammed with interviews this week. So I apologize for asking via email. But I wanted to
ask if you've been able to make any headway. I had a great conversation with your group on Friday trying to help them
with the background. Unfortunately I didn't get a phone number to contact them.
Thanks so much for all the help,
