Req. for modificatiory= DOT permit 38E%4 = Maria Creek Bridge,
(\ Carteret Count
We have reviewed the DOT modified plat dated October 1975 which illustrates the
proposed widening of an existing canal off Maria Creek. I have inspected the
site on several occasions. The proposed excavation and subsequent spoil place-
ment will occur within the alignment of an existing spoil area which now paral-
lels a mosquito control canal. Spoil area is dominated by black needlerush (Juncus)
as is the property on either side of the canal. I believe the proposed work can
be accomplished as indicated (i.e., no marsh to be excavated or filled at the site.)
The permit, however, should be conditioned to this effect.
Mr. Charlie Edgerton should also be cautioned to be sure and instruct the contrac-
tor that no marshland (Juncus) is to be excavated or filled at the site. The con-
tractor should be further warned that should the disposal area appear to be too
narrow to contain the intended spoil material, that the amount of excavation is
to be lessened.
We have no objection to the intended modification with the following conditions:
1. That all excavation be contained within the existing canal alignment and to
the southeast side of the canal.
2. That all excavated materials be confined above MHW and landward of regularly
or.irregularly flooded marshlands.
3. That at any time spoil material becomes deposited on marshland outside the
alignment of the existing spoil area, that work immediately cease, the Divi-
sion of Marine Fisheries be notified, and that the marsh area covered be
restored as directed by the Division of Marine Fisheries.

I am enclosing a sketch of the'E'rvin— her property at Stacy near Maria Creek
bridge. As you are aware, the subject canal was widened approximately two years
ago by the County Mosquito Control agency. An on -site meeting with federal bio-
logists revealed that they would not oppose the project if the work can be done
with no marshgrass destruction.
I have taken measurements of the canal and associated spoil area this date. I
was accompanied by Lloyd Fulcher. Mr. Fulcher stated that he and those fisher-
men who will use the canal will need a minimum of 15' wide by 5' deep. For
the most part, the canal appears to be near 15' wide or wider over most of the
alignment except for the northeasternmost 150'. In this area, the width varies
from 9-10' wide. The canal now varies from about 3.5' to 4.5' deep.
I would suggest that you utilize the enclosed sketch to prepare another plat for
various State and federal agencies. You should forward the new plat to John
Parker and Charles Hollis for circulation to their respective people.
Due to the limited width of the proposed disposal area, I would suggest that the
dragline operator be cautioned against spoil placement on the adjacent marshland.
This caution should stress that no spil is to be placed on the adjacent marsh-
land even at the expense of not achieving the desired 15' width and 5' depth.
If I can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.
Cordially yours,
Q

DESCRIPTION: Replacement of Bridge over Maria Cr
This is to request a modification in the Divis°A-0Trof Highways'
Permit No. 38-74 which covers the replacement of subject bridge.
The requested modification is in accordance with my August 4, 1975
memorandum, same subject.
You will note that the originally proposed 20' base canal to
be constructed in the marsh fringe is to be eliminated and substi-
tuted therefor is the minimum improvements to the mosquito control
ditch which are considered necessary for acceptability for boat
access. You will further note that it is planned to reshape the
existing spoil banks in order to contain the new spoil in the same
physical area now occupied by the existing spoil insofar as is
possible.
Your expeditious handling of this request is appreciated and
if there are any questions, please contact this office.

CONDITIONS
* That erosion be controlled on all spoil and disturbed areas during
project activity and after its completion.
* That all temporary detour fill materials be removed and the original
grade restored after the new bridge has been completed.
* That no uncontained fill material be placed below the MHW line at any
time.
* NOTE: Maria Creek is an extremely important estuary, particularly in
shrimp production. Any construction during the months of April through
October will present a hazard to local shrimp populations if uncontained
sediments are allowed to reach the adjacent waters.

App. for State permit - NC Div. of Highway - Nov. 30, 1973
Location - Carteret County - Maria Creek
Investigative process - Rec. app. Raleigh 12-4-73; in Morehead 12-17-73. Met with
Highway representative Charlie Edgerton on site 1-11-74.
Environmental setting - The project site is located at Maria Creek approximately 25.
miles east of Beaufort - Carteret County. The site is characterized by.a 50' long
highway bridge US 70 which spans Maria Creek. The wooden structure is relatively nar-
row and in need of repair. The west approach to the bridge is.bordered by drainage
canals on both the north and south sides. These canals are in turn bordered by black
needlerush (Juncus). The east approach to the bridge ;is also bordered by drainage
canals on either side which are in turn bordered by black needlerush (Juncus).
Project description - The N. C. Highway Commission proposes to replace the existing
bridge with a modern concrete structure. The new bridge is to be positioned -in the
same location as the existing structure. A temporary detour bridge is to be con-
structed on the north side of the present roadway. The detour and associated approach -
ways are to be removed to the original grade upon completion of the new bridge. Tem-
porary drainage canals will be excavated and will adjoin the existing drainage canals
in order to promote continued drainage. The abutment at either end of the new struc-
ture is to be bulkheaded with concrete sheeting in order to prevent erosion of the ap-
proach -ways.
Environmental impact - Some minor detriment will occur to marine fisheries due to
-short term turbidity and marsh (Juncus) displacement during initial construction. Upon
stabilization and grade restoration, the adjacent estuary will most likely return to
conditions approximating its original state. Some permanent detriment to marine fish-
eries species will occur due to filling at either abutment. However, this filling ap-
pears unavoidable and quite necessary. If this permit is granted, I recommend the fol-
lowing conditions:
1. That all temporary detour fill material be removed after the.new bridge is com-
pleted and the original grade restored.
2. That no uncontained fill material be placed below the MHW line at any time.
3. The Highway Com. is also cautioned that Maria Creek is an extremely important
estuary, particularly in shrimp production. Any construction during the months
of April through October will present a hazard to local shrimp populations if un-
contained sediments are allowed to reach the adjacent waters.
IfIf the abo condttio g re incorporated, I foresee no major detriment the project may
upon �ie marine nYia
a ery resources.
