CAMA Permit Application 

Project Narrative 
1.0 Purpose 
1.1 Introduction 
The Town of Surf City, N.C. was incorporated in 1949 and is situated along a +/‐ 6 mile stretch of central 
Topsail Island. During the 1990s, Surf City endured 5 direct hit hits by Category 1 or stronger Hurricanes 
and recently sustained widespread impacts from Hurricane Florence in September 2018. This put much 
of Surf City’s oceanfront in a critical or imminently threatened status. Losses of the beach berm prior to 
Florence left over 13% of the developed properties imminently threatened and a total of 58% 
endangered and not conforming to state setback regulations for building or re‐building.  These numbers 
are even more dire now after a direct landfalling hurricane last season. It is estimated that over 70% of 
structures were eminently threatened immediately post Hurricane Florence. Even with annual beach 
bulldozing operations, the shoreline continues to migrate landward as there is no natural influx of sand 
to rebuild the beach. This lack of sediment introduction along the Town’s beachfront is due to its central 
location on the island 14 miles south and 5 miles north of the inlets at either end of the island. The only 
major source of sediment influx to the beachfront is the shoreward migration of sediment from nearby 
hard‐bottoms. These very thin, low in volume, nearshore veneer deposits are insufficient to naturally 
provide the quantity of sediment necessary to keep the shoreline in a non‐erosive equilibrium. The 
landward migration of the shoreline and the absence of new sediment along the beachfront make this 
region one of the most sediment starved areas on the East Coast of the United States. Additionally, the 
passing of tropical cyclones and nor’easters make the Town vulnerable to significant beach erosion and 
property damages at any given time, which brings concern to an already sediment starved environment.    
The existing conditions for the Town of Surf City require beach nourishment efforts to preserve this 
pristine coastline. Management of this coastline will not only benefit the coastal ecosystem but also 
protect the present real estate and infrastructure which is a primary income for the Town during the 
summer months. Beach management is a constant and adaptive process. The dynamic coastal 
environment is in constant movement and mitigation strategies must be implemented to offset beach 
erosion.  By implementing and executing beach nourishment on a programmatic level, the long‐term 
future of the beach for the Town can be secured, protecting valuable environmental resources and local 
real estate. A beach nourishment program entails adding sand to the beach front multiple times over 
several decades, not just a “one‐and‐done” project. The beach nourishment program is not only more 
feasible financially but allows for additional monitoring surveys for the beach front of Town in order to 
offset beach front loss over several decades. The monitoring surveys detail the current condition of the 
beach and assist in placing sand appropriately for each nourishment project. A good program will 
eventually reduce the rate of erosion and become more economical as time moves forward. 
1.2 Project Objectives 
As discussed in Section 1.1, the Town of Topsail Beach is proposing to increase the scale of its beach 
nourishment project. The proposed project would provide an interim project to provide immediate 
relief from encroaching high tides on the upland beach and dune system. This design aims to 
provide sufficient coastal protection from Hurricanes and Nor’easters for a 4‐5 year time increment and 
afford the Town more time for either the Federal (USACE) CSDR project to become appropriated and go 
to construction or to develop and implement a long term, locally funded Beach Management Plan. 
There are two primary objectives of the proposed project. The first is to protect properties located 
within the Town of Surf City from future loss due to major coastal storms. The Town of Surf City contains 
approximately 2,600 homes and about 2,100 year‐round residents. Of the 2,600 properties 
within Town limits, 430 of them are directly oceanfront. During the summer vacation season, the 
residential population swells to over 19,000, sustaining the Town’s motels, restaurant, gift shops, fish 
pier and local businesses. The primary tourism draw, as with most coastal communities in the United 
States, is a wide and beautiful recreational sand beach, clean ocean and sound side waters, and boating 
access. If the Town did not maintain its coastal resources, visitors would likely choose a different beach 
town to vacation in and patronize businesses in other coastal communities. Widening the dry berm 
beach also provides habitat for shorebirds as well as nesting areas for sea turtles. Currently, the entire 
beach is nearly submerged on a normal high tide cycle, significantly reducing the available nesting area 
for both birds and turtles within Surf City.  
The second primary objective of the recommended project is to maintain Banks Channel adjacent to 
Surf City. The Town of Topsail Beach operates a town owned boat ramp and a North Carolina Wildlife 
Resources Commission (NCWRC) maintains a state owned boat ramp near the Surf City bridge, allowing 
residents and tourists a public access point to its coastal waters. Dredging the Banks Channel adjacent to 
Surf City and beneficially using the beach quality sand for a beach nourishment project provides clear 
passageways for boaters, travel to the federally maintained Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway (AIWW), and 
enjoy the backbarrier channels of Surf City without the worry of navigating through shoaled waterways. 
It should be noted that the Town of Topsail Beach recently received permits to dredge Banks Channel to 
the exact proposed dimensions as this project. Banks Channel in its entirety was originally included in 
the Topsail Beach permit application; however, the existing vibracores at the northern end of Banks 
Channel were over 5 years old (at the time of permit submission) and therefore no longer valid for the 
current permit application. As such, the northern portion of Banks Channel was dropped from the 
Topsail Inlet permit request to expedite permitting and remain on schedule for Topsail Beach. Since that 
time, additional vibracores for the remaining portion of Banks Channel have been collected and 
analyzed to continue the proposed 200’ width and 12+2’ MLW dredge depth, currently permitted for 
Topsail Beach, for the remainder of Banks Channel. 
As mentioned above, the Town of Topsail Beach recently permitted its full 30 year management plan 
project and is set to begin construction in the fall of 2019. This project utilizes beach quality sand in New 
Topsail Inlet, Topsail Creek, the Cut‐Through Channel, Banks Connector Channel, Banks Channel, and 
Banks Side Channels 1 and 2 to construct a new primary dune system and a large dry sand beach on 
their oceanfront beaches. Based upon the most recent survey data, the beachfill template requires 
approximately 2.1 million cubic yards of sand and the permitted sound‐side channel systems contained 
approximately 3.4 million cubic yards of sand. After Topsail Beach has completed construction in the 
winter of 2019, Surf City will use the remaining sand in the Banks Channel permitted templates, 
combined with the continuation of an expanded Banks Channel template (proposed in this application) 
to place approximate 1.6 million cubic yards of sand on their oceanfront beach. Prior to hydraulic 
dredging of Banks Channel, a separate truck haul project, initiated in the spring of 2019, will continue to 
rebuild the dune system lost to Hurricane Florence while the hydraulic beachfill project from the sound‐
side channels will construct a dry sand beach and natural slope seaward of the dune system. 
The design goals of the proposed project are summarized as follows: 
 To provide interim Hurricane and Nor’easter protection to Surf City by increasing the width of 
 the dry sand beach and repair dune scarping until the Federal USACE CSDR Project is    
 appropriated by Congress or the Town can initiate a long term Beach Management Plan. 
 Continue to provide a wide recreational beach for local residents and tourists to enjoy 
 (swimming, fishing, etc). 
 Maintain safe navigation throughout all interior channels surrounding Surf City that are 
 utilized by both commercial businesses as well as the public for pleasure boating, fishing, and 
 water sports. 
 Provide dry sand habitat for shorebird and sea turtle nesting and reduce the probability of 
overwash during storm events for nests. 
2.0 Project Description 
2.1 Location 

The project site is located in the middle of Topsail Island within the municipal limits of the Town of Surf 
City. Topsail Island is a barrier island located in southeast North Carolina along the beaches of Onslow 
Bay. The Town of Surf City is bordered by North Topsail to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, 
Banks Channel to the west and Topsail Beach to the south. The island is accessible to the public by 
highways 50 and 210 with Highway 50 being the only main road to the Town of Surf City. The 
approximate geographic coordinates of Surf City are Latitude 34o 25’40” and longitude 77o 33’ 24”. The 
Town consists of mixed use zoning, consisting primarily of residential single family homes, a small 
downtown business district, and several moderately sized hotels and condominiums. The oceanfront 
beach is flanked by a vegetated dune system consisting of typical beach vegetation including American 
Beach Grass (Ammophila breviligulata) and Sea Oats (Uniola paniculata). 

2.2 Surf City Current Beach Conditions 

In fall 2017, a beach monitoring survey was completed for the Town in order to compare the current 
conditions with previous datasets. Additionally, deliverables were prepared that showed (1) current 
beach width (Figure 1), (2) current distance from structure to setback line (Figure 2), and (3) current 
dune retreat rate (Figure 3). (1) The current beach width of the Town indicates that over 50%, nearly 
20,000 linear feet (lft) (3.75 miles), of the present shoreline has a current beach width between 10 to 20 
ft. The present beach width serves a great importance to not only acting as a buffer from on‐coming 
wave energy, but it also provides essential habitat for nesting turtles and birds. Additionally, the beach 
width provides an area for recreation for beach‐goers in summer and year‐round residents. (2) The 
current distance from structures to the setback line indicate that nearly 70%, 294 dwelling units fall 
within the 60 ft setback line. This means that if all property were to be over 50% destroyed from a 
tropical cyclone close to 300 dwelling units would have be moved from their current position and rebuilt 
outside of the setback line. (3) The current dune retreat rate varies across the Town. The dunes not only 
serve an important role in establishing vegetation growth for sea oats, which help keep the dune in 
place but are the primary defense against storm surge. Just over 50%, nearly 18,000 lft (3.4 miles), of the 
Town is experiencing a dune retreat of 4 to 9 ft per year. The seaward edge of established vegetation 
growth serves as the point from which the setback line is measured; therefore, adding a broader beach 
and dune field can make established vegetation growth be more seaward allowing for non‐conforming 
houses to regain conformity to the 60 ft setback rule.  
The current conditions of the Town indicate a beach management program is needed to help with the 
current beach width, distance from structure to setback line, and current dune retreat rate. 
Implementing a cost‐effective, environmentally friendly, and tourist attractive plan will benefit the Town 
substantially. A beach nourishment program will allow for continued deliverables of the Town’s present 
beach conditions and contribute to future beach nourishment plans for the Town of Surf City.

2.3 Wave Climate and Littoral Transport 

Topsail Island is situated within a mixed‐energy hydrodynamic setting. Mean wave height is 3.3 ft and 
mean tidal range is 3.0 ft (CLEARY, 1994 and USACE, 2006). Annually, the most frequent occurring wave 
heights range from 1.6 to 3.2 feet. During winter months, the most frequent wave heights range from 
1.6 to 4.9 ft due to storms and easterly to northeasterly approaching waves increase in occurrence. 
Waves during the summer months propagate from a southeasterly direction and often reach 1.0 to 3.0 
ft in height. Tropical systems, although infrequent, can generate waves exceeding 15.0 feet (USACE,  
2006). The net longshore sediment transport is from north to south in Surf City.  

2.4 Storm Events 

Storms over the past 65 years have caused extensive damage to the island, destroying infrastructure 
and transporting sand from the oceanfront beach across the island to the marsh and sound creating 
overwash fans. Topsail Island is located along major historic storm tracks, and as a result has been 
repeatedly impacted by tropical and extra‐tropical storms. Storm activity between 1944 and 1962 and 
in the late 1980’s was significant and caused extensive damage island‐wide. Hurricane Hazel (1954) and 
the Ash Wednesday Storm of 1962 were significant events causing massive damage. Hurricane Hazel 
destroyed approximately 90% of the buildings in existence on the island. That storm generated a 9.5 ft 
storm surge above mean sea level (MSL). The island’s average elevation was 8.9 ft above MSL (CLEARY 
and PILKEY, 1996). Hazel removed 850,000 CY of sand from the oceanfront beaches of Surf City and 
Topsail Beach. A portion of sand lost from the beach was carried onto and across the island into the 
sound and marsh in the form of overwash terraces. A large volume of this sand was lost from the 
oceanfront system as it became trapped beneath grasslands and incorporated into dune fields perched 
above washover deposits.  

Prior to 1996, southeastern North Carolina had not experienced a hurricane stronger than a category 2 
since 1954 (Hurricane Hazel) and a single dune, often scarped and sometimes nonexistent, fronted a 
majority of Topsail Island. However, between 1996 and 1999, four major hurricanes made landfall in the 
region with two others passing nearby. The southern 2‐mile length of Topsail Beach experienced some 
of the most extensive formation of washover terraces during the hurricanes of the late 1990’s. 
Overwash terraces extended as far as 328‐656 ft across the leveled barrier island (CLEARY et al., 2006). 
Bertha and Fran (1996) and Floyd (1999) were among the most destructive and costly storms ever to 
impact North Carolina. Frequent storm events affecting the region have increased erosion of oceanfront 
property. 

Most recently, in September 2018, Hurricane Florence made landfall near Wrightsville Beach as a strong 
category 1 storm. The duration of this storm event was extremely long and the cumulative impacts of 
the lasting hurricane force winds, surf, and tides wreaked havoc on Topsail Island. While total losses of 
property were limited in Surf City, the dune and beach system were severely eroded leaving the 
majority of the properties within town limits in imminent danger and fronted by a scarped or 
nonexistent dune system.  
3.0 Project Purpose 

3.1 Integration of Navigation and Nourishment  

As with most coastal towns, the beach itself is the number one economic resource and driving factor in 
the local economy. A close second is the surrounding waterways and boating access and as such, both 
need to be maintained. With a year‐round population of approximately 2,100 residents and a 
summertime population of nearly 19,000, it is easy to see that the draw of the beach, ocean and 
waterways have a huge impact on the local economy. Ensuring that both of these natural resources 
remain attractive to visitors, provide storm protection to residents, and protect the Town’s 
infrastructure is the ultimate goal of a successful beach and sound management plan. 

In February 2017, the USACE received guidance from headquarters that essentially made all disposal 
areas off limits. Under these guidelines, disposal on the beach is the only option for a project of this 
magnitude. By beneficially using material dredged from Banks Channel, combined with remaining sand 
within the permitted channels for the Town of Topsail Beach, both facets of the project are completed—
the beach receives high quality sands to replace eroded sands and maintain the high quality coastal 
environment that draws summertime visitors to Surf City. In unison to the nourishment of the beach, 
because the local channel systems are the sources of sand, navigation behind Topsail Beach and Surf 
City is significantly improved and completed at one time rather than leaving ‘speed bumps’ or 
extraneous shoals within the channels. The proposed dredge channel dimensions provide sufficient 
capacity to allow for the historic shoaling rates to infill the channel while still providing navigation at the 
federally authorized depths for the designed return period of the project, estimated at 4 to 5 years. 

Traditional beach nourishment projects and navigation dredging projects have focused on each 
individual aspect. Offshore borrow sites have been the go‐to source for sand used to restore beaches, 
excavating expansive shoals miles off the beach and placing the material on the beach via pipeline or 
hydraulic dredge. Due to their spatial size, the offshore borrow sites often provide substantial volumes 
of beach quality sand and are viable resources for multiple nourishment projects. However because they 
are outside of the active sediment transport zone, they do not recharge and once the sand supply has 
been exhausted a new search for sand must occur. Beach quality sand exists in the northern portion of 
Banks Channel due to overwash fans associated with the string of 1990’s hurricanes. The proximity of 
this channel area to the dynamic inlet zone does not produce tidal currents strong enough to transport 
beach quality sand within this area. While the volume of sand exists in the channel system to perform an 
initial construction project for Surf City, future locally funded projects will need to search for an 
alternative, most likely offshore, borrow source.  

3.2 Increased Shoreline Protection  

In the early 2000s, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) completed the feasibility study 
and approved a Coastal Storm Damage Reduction (CSDR) project for the Town of Surf City, aimed at 
protecting coastal properties and infrastructure from major storm events. The federal beach design 
consists of 2 stages of construction—an initial construction which constructs a large beach in 
anticipation of equilibrium induced erosion and then maintenance portion for the remaining lifetime of 
the project. The maintenance portion of the project is a much smaller beach than the initial 
construction beach. As shown in Figure 4, this federal beach berm design included a 300 ft wide berm 
for initial construction and then maintains the berm at 50 ft wide maintained at an elevation of 6 ft 
NAVD with a 1:15 beach slope. The dune would be 25 ft wide at an elevation of 14 ft NAVD with a 1:10 
dune slope. The initial construction of this project would consist of 6.6 million cubic yards of beach fill 
coming from offshore borrow areas.  

As mentioned before, this Federal CSDR was authorized by congress for construction in 2014 as a 
combined project covering both Surf City and North Topsail Beach. No Federal appropriations have been 
approved to start construction on this project through the FY 2020 budget. Additionally, the original 
design agreement was executed on August 8, 2011 for the Surf City/North Topsail Beach project and this 
authorization will expire ten years from enactment unless construction is initiated within this time 
frame. With no appropriations available through the 2020 fiscal year, the chances of the project starting 
before the sunset clause is initiated are very slim. The Non‐Federal cost share of the initial construction 
project, split between Surf City and North Topsail Beach, is $49,983,000 and both towns must be ready 
to contribute their portion of the funds if and when the Federal appropriations are approved by 
congress. Without both Towns paying their portion, the entire project would remain unfunded. 

Figure 4.  USACE federal beach template design. The initial construction (grey line) would be built for the first cycle 
of the beach nourishment program. The next cycle of beach replenishment efforts would only be filled to the 1550 
Dune‐and‐Berm bolded line for future projects.  
Due to the uncertainty in Federal appropriations and time frame, coupled with the high initial 
construction costs, the Town has decided to select an alternate interim project that is more feasible and 
a better long term solution. In fall of 2017, a conditional beach survey was completed in order to 
determine the best design beach templates for the Town of Surf City. Given the condition of the beach, 
volume of economical sand, and Surf City’s budget, TI Coastal developed a feasible beach nourishment 
template that would begin a long term beach management plan for Surf City. The template entails an 
average 145 ft wide berm at an elevation of 5 ft NAVD with a 20H:1V natural beach slope (Figure 5). The 
initial beach design allows for repair of any scarped dunes by adding a 5H:1V slope. The dune portion of 
the project is less critical now since Surf City has begun a truck haul project to rebuild the pre‐Florence 
primary dune, however if any scarping to that dune is present at the time of hydraulic construction, the 
dune face will be dressed up to restore a 5H:1V slope. Initial construction of this local project would 
consist of approximately 1.6 million cubic yards of beach fill, dredged from Banks Channel from the 
southern terminus of Banks Side Channel 1 to the confluence with the AIWW.  

Figure 5. Proposed beachfill template. The colored lines indicate the June 2018, January 2019, and July 2019 beach 
condition and the black line indicates the proposed template of the beach placement area. Dune construction will 
be done by truck haul and berm and slope construction by hydraulic dredge.  

3.3 Navigational Benefit 
As mentioned in the section above a secondary benefit from this project is to provide and maintain 
navigation at the federally authorized depths over the 4‐5 year design cycle of the project. By creating 
shoaling capacity, the need for intermittent work between beach nourishment projects would be 
removed. Not only does this reduce the temporal environmental impact to the shallow water channel 
systems, it also alleviates the burden to the USACE dredge fleet. The sidecast dredges Fry and Merritt 
have been the USACE dredges to address shoaling and navigation issues in shallow draft inlets along the 
eastern seaboard. Despite being maintained and managed by the local USACE Wilmington District, these 
dredges are used in inlet systems from New Jersey to South Carolina. To exacerbate the burden of the 
sidecast dredges, the Fry was decommissioned in 2011 due to its age. This leaves the aging Merritt, 
which is over 50 years old, as the only available sidecast dredge to perform work on 25 separate inlet 
systems along the Atlantic coast. By establishing a navigational dredging plan for the Banks Channel 
system adjacent to Surf City, the Merritt would be free to address issues in other shallow draft inlets. 
As mentioned previously, the initial construction project for Surf City will utilize whatever sand remains 
within the Topsail Beach Nourishment Projects permitted templates after Topsail completes their 
project in the fall of 2019. It is anticipated that the Topsail project will require somewhere in the 
neighborhood of 2.1 million cubic yards of sand to complete their nourishment which leaves 
approximately 1.6 million yards in template. Piggy backing the Surf City project onto the Topsail project 
creates a comprehensive cleaning of the channel system and removes all hot spot shoals from the 
system.  
4.0 Proposed Project Description 
4.1 Surf City Beachfill 

Surf City is proposing to undertake an interim, emergency beach nourishment project until the Federal 
CSDR Project is appropriated or sunsets in 2021 and a locally funded long term Beach Management Plan 
can be adapted. This interim project would begin work to rebuild the primary dune system that was 
eroded during Hurricane Florence as well as create a dry sand beach in front of the dune to keep wave 
energy further offshore, reduce dune scarping, and protect dune crossovers. The beach placement 
would occur along the full length of beach with Surf City, from the town line with Topsail Beach on the 
south and the town line with North Topsail Beach on the north (Figure 6).  

Figure 6. Beach nourishment would occur within the red oceanfront beach areas, from Topsail Beach to North 
Topsail Beach and include all of Surf City. 

Given the condition of the beach as described above in the 2017 analysis and the recent impacts from 
Hurricane Florence, the initial project for Surf City is triage in nature and seeks to provide immediate 
relief to the oceanfront homes and Town’s infrastructure from future coastal storm events. This project 
proposes on average a 85 foot wide dry sand berm at elevation 5 ft NAVD88 and repairing the dune 
scarping/erosion to the truck hauled dune. The front dune slope will be 5H:1V and the beach slope will 
be 20H:1V. Beach nourishment would cover the entire length of Surf City, from the Town of Topsail 
Beach to North Topsail Beach lines and is estimated to require approximately 1.6 million cubic yards of 
sand to fill the proposed template. 

 Surf City began an emergency Post Florence truck haul project to rebuild portions dunes lost and badly 
damaged during the storm. This project was put on hiatus due to environmental moratoriums and, 
pending permit approval, will begin again on November 15, 2019, completing dune reconstruction along 
the entire length of Surf City. Areas of dunes that were previously constructed by the truck haul project 
and have been eroded will be repaired and dressed up during the hydraulic beach fill portion of the 
project. The condition of the dune system as a whole at the time of this proposed construction project 
will dictate any additional dune work that is needed to ensure the dune template is full and complete at 
the time of berm construction. A typical cross section of the completed beachfill template can be seen 
above in Figure 5, with the dune construction being completed by truck haul prior to the start of this 
proposed project, and the berm and beach slope being constructed by hydraulic dredging of Banks 
Channel. 

4.2 Hydraulic Dredge Areas 

Initial renourishment of Surf City proposes to use beach quality shoaled sand within Banks Channel, 
west of Topsail Beach. The Town of Topsail Beach recently permitted dredging within Banks Channel to a 
width of 200 feet and 12+2’ MLW deep. Vibracores collected for Topsail’s permitting effort only 
extended to station 210+00 and therefore the expanded channel dimensions end there. Nourishment of 
Surf City seeks to utilize this currently permitted portion of Banks Channel. In the time since the Topsail 
Permit was submitted, additional cores have been collected to characterize the sediments from Banks 
Channel station 210+00 to the intersection with the AIWW at station 328+00. Given the quality of sand 
found in the collected vibracores, the increased width of 200 feet and depth of 12+2’ MLW is proposed 
to continue the remaining length of Banks Channel. The full length of Banks Channel, combined with 
sand left over in the Town of Topsail Beach’s navigation channel templates will provide the full 2 million 
cubic yards of sand needed to complete the initial Surf City project. 

The timing and plan for the November 15, 2019 start of dredge season includes Surf City continuing and 
completing its ongoing truck haul dune reconstruction project, restoring a continuous primary dune 
system for the entire length of the Town. At the same time, Topsail Beach will begin construction on its 
beach nourishment project, utilizing permitted sand sources of Topsail Inlet, Topsail Creek, the Cut 
Through Channel, Banks Connector Channel, Banks Channel, and Banks Side Channels 1 and 2. An 
estimated 1.5 million cubic yards is required for Topsail Beach to complete their project, leaving nearly 2 
million cubic yards within the permitted channel templates. After the dune construction in Surf City and 
Topsail’s beachfill project are completed in or around February 2020, hydraulic dredging will begin for 
Surf City utilizing beach quality sand in the remaining permitted Topsail Channel system in addition to 
the remaining length of Banks Channel, proposed within this application. Because of channel location 
and beachfill areas, it is anticipated that Topsail Beach will use sand from New Topsail Inlet, Topsail 
Creek and the Cut Through Channel to complete their project and sand from Banks Connector Channel, 
Banks Channel, and Banks Side Channels 1 and 2 will be used to nourish Surf City. The exact areas used 
for each project will be determined at the time of construction based upon the condition of the beachfill 
areas and amount of shoaling within the dredge areas. 

Figure 7. Channel dredging will occur within the red Banks Channel template extending from the southern end of 
Side Channel 1 to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. 

4.3 Pipeline Crossings 

Pipeline routes for the project will extend from the dredge in the back channel areas northward in Banks 
Channel to a planned under road crossing at Oleander Drive in the southern end of Surf City and the 
existing pipeline crossing at Queens Grant in Topsail Beach. This under road crossing allows the dredge 
pipeline to cross from Banks Channel to the oceanfront beach disposal area without impeding traffic and 
limiting the environmental impact of pipeline routes through critical dune and marsh habitats. Dredge 
pipe will stretch from this location both southward to the Topsail Beach town line and northward on the 
beach of Surf City until reaching the end of the job at the North Topsail Beach line. Sporadic booster 
pumps may be needed to assist in pumping the sand but final location of these pumps, both in Banks 
Channel, along the beach, or slightly offshore will be dictated by the final contractor. The dredging 
contractor will utilize vehicle crossovers at Kinston Avenue, near the Surf City bridge and Broadway 
Avenue towards the northern end of town for all ingress and egress from the construction site.  

Figure 8. Proposed under road pipeline crossing at Bland Drive in Surf City. 
4.4 Environmental Impacts 
Efforts to reduce the overall environmental footprint of the project have been built into the design, from 
following the azimuths of the Federally authorized navigation channel in Banks Channel to the a natural 
beach design that minimizes scarping and mimics the existing beach profile. All work proposed for Surf 
City falls within the guidelines of already established Biological Opinions (BOs). Dredging and beachfill 
associated with the Banks Channel system and Surf City oceanfront beaches should fall under the North 
Carolina Statewide Programmatic BO (attached in appendices). Additionally, a BO was written for the 
recently permitted project at Topsail Beach and as these two projects are extremely similar in nature 
(borrow areas and beachfill design); all work in Surf City should fall within these parameters as well. 
Finally, the USACE Coastal Storm Damage Reduction Project for Surf City and North Topsail Beach has 
been approved and permitted and the Federal Environmental Impact Statement/BO for this project 
blankets beachfill work proposed here within. All work associated with this project and under this 
permit application will fall within the auspices of these three, previously defined and accepted,

5.1 Vibracore Collection 
Core collection began on March 29, 2018 when TI Coastal contracted Athena Technologies, Inc. to 
collect 13 vibracores from Banks Channel adjacent to the Town of Surf City to investigate and determine 
if shoaled material in the channels was beach compatible in accordance to the North Carolina 
Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Sediment Criteria Rules. All cores were collected with 3 
inch diameter aluminum pipes and pneumatically vibrated into the substrate. The cores were taken back 
to Athena Technologies’ shop, where the core barrels were split longitudinally and cut into 5 foot 
sections, with one half of the core dedicated to descriptions and sampling and the other transferred to 
3‐inch PVC and wrapped for archiving. The split cores were delivered to TI Coastal’s USACE certified 
Geotechnical Lab on April 5, 2018. An additional vibracore (TB‐48) was included in this initial study from 
a previous project and the same procedure for collection was executed.   
The core layout and spacing was created by TI Coastal in accordance with the NCDEQ Sediment Criteria 
Rules for borrow site characterization, allowing for 1,000 foot spacing’s between cores and  taken on the 
shallower sides of Banks Channel (Figure 9 and Figure 10). Athena Technologies loaded the proposed 
core locations into their on‐board navigation software and used Differential Global Positioning System 
(DGPS) positioning to navigate to each core location. Water depths on site were collected via survey rod 
and then tide adjusted by coordinating with TI Coastal personnel who read tide levels from an 
established tide board at the Surf City Boat Ramp. This information provided the top of hole elevation, in 
NAVD88, and allowed Athena to calculate their goal penetration depth, which was set at 2 feet below 
the proposed dredge overdepth (‐14' NAVD88). The additional 2 feet of penetration allows for some 
core loss upon retrieval while still ensuring the total core recovery covered the entire proposed dredge 
depths. 

Initial results of the March 2018 sampling effort and subsequent analysis revealed the potential for 
unsuitable material residing within the proposed dredge template, near the northwesterly turn of Banks 
Channel towards the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. Significant findings of silt and oyster shells, from 
relict marsh banks, were found in the cores. In order to better delineate the area of unsuitable material 
and isolate it for separate disposal methods, additional vibracores were proposed in the questionable 
area. The supplemental cores were spaced between the March 2018 core locations with the goal of 
isolating the unsuitable material and maximizing the beach compatible sand. Athena Technologies was 
again contracted to collect the cores and work was completed on July 11 and 12, 2019 with the same 
procedures as the first sampling effort. After splitting the cores at their office, Athena delivered the 
2019 Surf City vibracores to TI Coastal on July 19, 2019. 

5.2 Vibracore Analysis 

Core photography and descriptions began on April  5, 2018 and was completed on April 13, 2018. Core 
descriptions focused on sediment texture and grain size, Munsell sediment color, sorting and visual 
USCS classification. A total of 43 representative samples, one for each distinct stratigraphic layer in the 
cores, were collected for grain size and calcium carbonate analysis. Each sample was transferred into a 
porcelain evaporating dish and dried in a bench oven at 215o Fahrenheit for at least 10 hours and held 
for testing in a sealed plastic zip lock bag. Grain size statistics were generated by running approximately 
200 grams of the dried sediment sample through TI Coastal’s stack of sieves on a sieve shaker for 25 
minutes (Table 1). The incremental weight retained was recorded and entered into gINT, a geotechnical 
software that generates data reports based upon user defined sediment statistics.  GINT utilized the 
weight retained on each sieve to determine the critical statistics: mean grain size, median grain size, 
standard deviations, skewness, kurtosis, sorting, percent fines, and USCS classification. Grain size 
analysis was completed on April 16, 2017. 
Calcium carbonate testing began on April 17, 2018 and was completed on April 19, 2018. Analysis was 
conducted via acid digestion where 3 molar hydrochloric acid was introduced to approximately 50 grams 
of the dried sediment sample. The acid was added until the chemical reaction ceased, indicating all of 
the CaCO3 was dissolved from the sample. The remaining sediment was rinsed with distilled water and 
then dried in a bench oven at 215o Fahrenheit for at least 10 hours and weighed a second time once dry. 
The percentage of calcium carbonate was determined by the difference in weight between the original 
sample and the final sample. 

The 2019 core descriptions and photography was completed between July 23 and 25, 2019. Utilizing the 
same procedures as before, the split vibracores were analyzed by a North Carolina Professional 
Geologist, describing each individual stratigraphic layer and collecting representative samples for each 
sedimentary layer for grain size analysis, Munsell colors, and calcium carbonate testing. Geotechnical 
testing for the 2019 cores was conducted between July 29 and August 9, 2019 thus creating grain size 
distribution curves, granularmetric tables, and determining Munsell color for the representative 
samples.  

The following week, the vibracore spider map was updated by incorporating the additional cores as well 
as the 2019 Surf City monitoring data. The spider map breaks the proposed dredge area in Banks 
Channel into polygons where one vibracore represents the sediment within that segment of channel 
(map is included in Appendix A). The polygons were delineated by the midpoint of the straight line 
distance between two adjacent cores. Volume analysis was performed within the channel footprint for 
each core compartment to determine the amount of sediment each core layer represented. Once the 
total volume of sediment for the individual core layer was calculated, a weighted average of the sieve 
analysis was created, multiplying the total volume by the percent of sediment retained on each sieve. 
Compiling these numbers, an overall composite sample was created Banks Channel to compare the 
borrow area sediment to the Native sand found on Surf City’s oceanfront beach. 

Calcium carbonate testing for the 2019 cores were completed on August 20 and 21, 2019 and utilized 
the same procedure as described for the 2018 vibracore samples. The calcium carbonate percentages 
were added to the final Surf City Banks Channel statistical analysis.  

Because the proposed dredge area of Banks Channel extends southward to Station 35+00 and the Surf 
City Banks Channel vibracores covered the area from 210+00 to 328+00, the volumetric and 
geotechnical information completed for the Banks Channel dredging portion of the Topsail Beach 
Nourishment and Dredging Project were incorporated into the final spreadsheet. Only cores the 
represented material within the proposed dredge template from 35+00 to 210+00 were used, but this 
provides a comprehensive geotechnical investigation of the sediment within the entire proposed dredge 
area. Compiling these numbers, an overall composite sample was created for Banks Channel.  

Preliminary comments from regulatory agencies after an initial permit submission on May 23, 2019 
indicated potential issues with sediment color. Review of initial procedures indicates that the Munsell 
colors were taken while the sample was wet and errantly recorded as a dry Munsell color in our 
geotechnical reports. These color hue, value, and chroma do not accurately represent the final color of 
dredged sediment after it has been placed on the beach and allowed to oxidize. Virgin material within 
the template has resided in an anoxic environment for an extended period of time and is therefore very 
dark in coloration when first removed from the ground. Allowing the material to naturally dry in the sun 
provides a better interpretation of the final sediment color once placed on the beach. The 2018 
vibracore samples were re‐evaluated for Munsell color by drying through an open‐air, sun drying 
process, allowing the sediment to oxidize naturally and lighten due to solar radiation as it would 
naturally on the beach. Between August 4 and August 9, 2019 the 2018 core samples were placed in 
aluminum pan baking dishes and left in a sunny area near TI Coastal’s geotechnical lab until completely 
dried. These samples were then photographed with the 2.5YR Munsell color classification sheet to 
provide better insight to the actual sediment colors. Representative samples from the 2019 cores were 
dried in the oven, but still photographed with the 2.5YR Munsell page for comparison. The sediment 
coloration was re‐evaluated for each 2018 sample and updated in the official sample records and all 
samples appear to be compatible with the native beach sediment.  Photographs of the sun dried (2018) 
and oven dried (2019) sediments can be found in the digital copy of Appendix A.

5.3 Surf City Native Grain Size Analysis 

According to the CRC guidelines, sediment sampling and analysis was conducted to capture the three‐
dimensional spatial variability of the sediment characteristic such as grain size, sorting and mineralogy 
within the natural system;  Shore‐perpendicular topographic and bathymetric surveying of the beach 
was conducted to determine the beach profile.  Topographic and bathymetric surveying occurred along 
seven shore‐perpendicular transects that were evenly spaced throughout the entire project area.  Each 
transect extended from the frontal dune crest seaward to a depth of ‐20' NAVD88, and the transect 
spacing was 5,000' ft in the shore‐parallel direction.  Elevation data for all transects were referenced to 
the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 and the North American Datum of 1983.  A total of 15 
sediment samples were taken along each beach profile transect. At least one sample was taken from the 
frontal dune, frontal dune toe, mid berm, mean high water (MHW), mid tide (MT), mean low water 
(MLW), trough, bar crest and at even depth increments from 6' NAVD88 ft to 20' NAVD88 ft. The total 
number of samples taken landward of MLW were equal to the total number of samples taken seaward 
of MLW.  

A total of 105 samples were collected along 5 transects (15 samples each transect), TB‐27, TB‐32, TB‐37, 
TB‐42, TB‐47, TB‐52, and TB‐57 (Figure 11). For each transect a sample was taken at the dune crest, 
dune toe, mid‐berm, MHW, foreshore, MT, elevation 0' NAVD88, MLW, trough, bar crest, elevation ‐6' 
NAVD88, elevation ‐8' NAVD88, elevation ‐12' NAVD88, elevation ‐16' NAVD88, and elevation ‐20' 
NAVD88. Samples from the dune crest to ‐6 elevation NAVD88 were collected on April 16, 2018 and 
April 17, 2018 while offshore samples from ‐8 elevation NAVD88 to ‐20' NAVD88 elevation were 
collected on May 16, 2018. With the exception of TB‐27 rather than a sample be taken at elevation ‐12' 
NAVD88, a sample was taken at ‐10' NAVD88 due to rough seas.  

After the collection of sediment samples, the samples were taken back to TI Coastal's USACE certified 
geotechnical laboratory for further analysis. Similar to the vibracore analysis, description of color 
according to the Munsell Color chart was performed along with grain size analysis of each sample.  Each 
sample was transferred into a porcelain evaporating dish and dried in a bench oven at 215o Fahrenheit 
for at least 10 hours and held for testing in a sealed plastic zip lock bag. Grain size statistics were 
generated by running approximately 200 grams of the dried sediment sample through TI Coastal’s stack 
of sieves on a sieve shaker for 25 minutes (Table 1). The incremental weight retained was recorded and 
entered into gINT, a geotechnical software that generates data reports based upon user defined 
sediment statistics.  GINT utilized the weight retained on each sieve to determine the critical statistics: 
mean grain size, median grain size, standard deviations, skewness, kurtosis, sorting, percent fines, and 
USCS classification. Grain size analysis was completed on May 23, 2018.  
Calcium carbonate testing began on May 18, 2018 and was completed on May 29, 2018. Analysis was 
conducted via acid digestion where 3 molar hydrochloric acid was introduced to approximately 50 grams 
of the dried sediment sample. The acid was added until the chemical reaction ceased, indicating all of 
the CaCO3 was dissolved from the sample. The remaining sediment was rinsed with distilled water and 
then dried in a bench oven at 215o Fahrenheit for at least 10 hours and weighed a second time once dry. 
The percentage of calcium carbonate was determined by the difference in weight between the original 
sample and the final sample. 

The USACE completed its own internal grain size analysis for the Town of Surf City and found a mean 
grain size of 0.22 mm and visually 10% shell fragments (USACE, 2010). While TI Coastal's native grain size 
analysis for the Town of Surf City was found to have a mean grain size of 0.25 mm and CaCO3 of 6.6%. 
The proposed borrow area in Banks Channel had a mean grain size of 0.33 mm and CaCO3 of 16.5%. The 
percentage silt and clay (sediment size ≤0.063 mm), gravel (material with a diameter ≥4.76 mm), and 
granular sediment (2.0 mm to 4.76 mm) are all under 5% of the native (Table 3 and Table 4).  
A 50,000 sqft location of oceanfront beach in Surf City was analyzed for large clastic material ‐ exceeding 
3” in diameter‐ on the existing beach.  The summation of large clasts is needed to calculate sand 
composition and grain size distribution of the existing shoreline environment.  The survey location is 
near the intersection of Craven Ave and N. Shore Dr in Surf City, NC. The area extended from the toe of 
the dune to the shoreline MLW.  For our survey, we made a sample area of 500ft x 100ft. and broke it 
down into 5, 100ft x 100ft sections. We counted the number of large shells and sediment (clasts) that 
exceeded 3” in diameter in each 10,000 sqft section using 5ft x 5ft pvc frames as reference tools.  We 
also used an RTK rover to accurately measure the sample area parameters (Figure 12). 
The survey began at Station 257+00 and went northward to Station 262+00. A total of 98 clasts were 
found in the 50,000sqft area.  The majority of large clasts and shells were located at or near the toe of 
the dune, while the rest of the large shells and clasts, were found at or near the low‐tide shoreline.  
During the survey we extended past the 100ft width area in order to survey as close as we could to the 
MLW line.

5.4 Banks Channel Vibracore Results 

In order to maintain the integrity and quality of the current beach, the North Carolina Coastal Resources 
Commission (CRC) has established standards to prevent large amounts of coarse material (cobbles, large 
shells and shell hash) as well as excessive fine grained material (silt and clay) from being placed on the 
beach. Silt and clay (sediment size ≤0.063 mm), gravel (material with a diameter ≥4.76 mm), and 
granular sediment (2.0 mm to 4.76 mm) are limited to 5% over the percentage found on the native 
beach. The calcium carbonate (shell) fraction of the borrow material is limited to no more than 15% over 
what naturally is found in the fill area. Following within the guidelines of the CRC, TI Coastal determined 
the native grain size for the Town of Surf City.  After completion of all 105 samples the results can be 
found in Tables 2 to 3 while the borrow area's grain size statistics can be found in Table 4. In addition, 
the calculation of grain size statistics for the extended Banks Channel borrow area not included in the 
Topsail Beach permit, (i.e. mean, median, CaCO3 % etc.)  were also compiled with the previously 
permitted Topsail Beach channels to get overall borrow area statistics for the entire channel system to 
be dredged for Surf City nourishment.  
Dried sediment samples from 2018 were measured under the Munsell Color classification method.  
Requirements asked that the sediment fall within a Munsell color value of 5/1 or lighter (i.e. 6/1 or 7/1).  
All sediment samples from the 2018 VC that were air‐dried and the 2019 vibracore samples that were 
oven‐dried had a value of 5/1 or lighter in value (6/1 or 7/1) very few samples indicated any change in 
chroma from gray to yellow, while the vast majority had a chroma gray to light gray within the 2.5Y hue.  
The review of the sediment colors can be seen in the photos in the digital version of Appendix A.  
Volumes were calculated using survey data and drilling log information.  

We omitted volume data from stations 295+00 to 300+00 which contained vibracore data from core 
2018‐VC‐SC‐10. When reviewing the geotechnical composition, grain size, and calcium carbonate 
percentages of the material, we found it unsuitable for beach placement and other plans have been 
formulated to deal with this section of channel. Prior to the hydraulic cutterhead dredge arriving at this 
location, the unsuitable material will be removed to the proposed dimensions (12+2’ MLW dredge depth 
and 200’ wide channel width) by bucket and barge. The unsuitable material will be barged to Disposal 
Area 203, located at the confluence of the AIWW and Topsail Creek, and placed within the disposal 
island outside of the USACE right of way. These efforts ensure that only high quality sediment is pumped 
onto the beach while ensuring the navigation goals of the project are still met. 

Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) averages are found in table 4 of this report and represent weighted averages 
for all cores from 2017 through 2019 within the Banks Channel dredge area.  Additionally, the results of 
our grain size analysis can be found in table 4, showing the mean and median grain size, as well as the 
average percentage of fine, sand, and gravel material from Banks Channel.  For comparison the CRC 
thresholds are posted in the table as well.  The overall composite of Banks Channel falls within the limits 
set forth by the CRC and proves to be a viable borrow area for nourishment on Surf City. 

Overall composite tables containing the vibracores for both the Surf City Banks Channel statistics 
(stations 210+00 to 328+00) as well as the full Banks Channel borrow area statistics (stations 35+00 to 
328+00) are included in Appendix A. Accompanying these spreadsheets are the grain size distribution 
curves and granularmetric tables for both Surf City Banks and the full Banks Channel borrow area. 
The average percentages (%) for this report fall well within the CRC threshold.  Calcium Carbonate 
(CaCO3) concentration percentages, fall within the 21.6% threshold. Gravel concentration percentages 
are all within 5.3% (Table 4).  Fine aggregates fall within the 5.0% threshold.  Our results indicate that 
our overall percentage of sand in the Banks Channel Composite totals 91.6% (Table 4).  A supporting 
piece of consistency in our analyses is that each sequential aggregation of Banks Channel sediment 
results averaged resembles the previous individual analyses for this report.  In other words, all of the 
analyses from Table 4 have similar values to one another before and after being merged. 
The high percentage of sand in Banks Channel can be partially attributed to a strong incoming tidal 
current during high tide, carrying and pushing sand into Banks channel (Table 4).  However, this only 
occurs near Topsail Inlet at the entrance of Banks Connector Channel, and Banks Channel.  The large 
percentage of fine to coarse grained sand and granular sediment could be evidence of higher wave 
action and previous storm activity, where more energy keeps larger, heavier material in suspension 
before being deposited in the channel.  However, because this area of the channel is mostly closed off 
from the ocean wave energy, the main source of sand in Banks Channel was deposited from overwash 
fans from previous hurricane and strong storm impacts.  Due to the highly infrequent occurrence of 
overwash fan deposition in this area, navigation maintenance in the upper reaches of Banks Channel is 
not expected in the foreseeable future.  This makes this a one‐time project due to the limited sand 
supply. 
Fine sediment found in our vibracore analysis may be from rain runoff and fluvial discharge into the 
AIWW and Bank Channel, and/or biogenous material from past marsh environments.  Fine sediment 
indicates calm water environments.  Circling back to Table 4 above, we can see that all the average 
values the Total Composite the Banks Channel are have low quantities of fine sediment and fall within 
the grain size percentage threshold suggesting that the sand in Banks Channel is a viable source for 
beach nourishment.

5.6 Unsuitable Material Handling 
The additional cores collected within Banks Channel delineated the problem area of non‐compatible 
material within the dredge template and isolated it to a 500 foot length of channel from Station 295+00 
to 300+00. Sand within the template both down station and up station from this section was beach 
quality and well within the CRC’s thresholds for beach compatible material for Surf City. To address the 
area of unsuitable material within the channel while maintaining the level of continuous navigation that 
this project hopes to achieve, a bucket and barge excavation method will be utilized to remove the 
material from the proposed template. The mechanical excavation of the sediment will allow the channel 
to be dredged to the designed 12+2’ depth and 200’ width, but the material will be transported to 
Disposal Area 203 and placed outside of the USACE Right of Way (Figure 13). This work will be 
completed prior to hydraulic dredging of the channel in this area, leaving nothing but high quality sand 
behind to be placed on the beach.  
The written specifications provided in the bid will require the contractor to closely monitor the material 
being discharged and disposed of on the beach. In the event that excessive unsuitable, non‐beach 
compatible material (i.e. abundant shell, silt or clay) is encountered, the beach would be scraped and 
the undesirable material would be removed and stored at the construction staging area near Broadway 
Avenue. Upon completion of the navigation maintenance, the shells and undesirable sediment will 
placed at USACE Disposal Area 203, outside of the Federal AIWW right‐of‐way. This island was used as a 
borrow site for the winter 2010/2011 Topsail Beach Nourishment Project and has historically been 
subject to wake‐induced erosion due to summer boat traffic which erodes the dike system along Topsail 
Creek. The material will be placed where needed on the island, working to repair the dike if needed at 
the time of construction. Otherwise, the unsuitable material will be placed in the upland portion of the 
island, outside of the USACE Right of Way (Figure 13). 

Figure 13. Unsuitable material will be placed in DA‐203, outside of the USACE Right of Way. 

The appendices found at the end of this document contain all the grain size analysis reports for each 
sample taken from the vibracores and sample taken to determine the native grain size for the Town of 
Surf City. Included within these reports are the descriptive vibracore logs, granularmetric reports for 
each sample and cumulative grain‐size distribution curves for each sample. Photographs of the 
vibracores, taken in 2 foot sections, are also included. Detailed spreadsheets of how the composite 
samples were formed can be found there, as well as statistical analysis for each compiled sample.

Adjacent Property Owner Notifications 

In accordance with guidelines in applying for a Major Permit Modification through the Coastal Area 
Management Act (CAMA) offices of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), 
the applicant must notify the adjacent property owners of their application and what the proposed 
project consists of. Utilizing aerial photography and the Pender County Online Tax GIS Database, 
adjacent property owners and their home mailing addresses were established.  
The south end of the proposed Surf City nourishment project truncates at the Surf City/Town of Topsail 
Beach line and the first house to the south of this municipal border was identified as the southern 
adjacent property owner. The same scenario plays out on the northern of the beachfill area as it reaches 
a terminus at the Surf City/North Topsail Beach property boundary. The southernmost property in North 
Topsail Beach was sent a notification of this permit application. 
Project notifications were also sent to the Towns of Topsail Beach and North Topsail Beach as the 
project limits extend beyond the Town of Surf City’s jurisdictional boundaries. The extension beyond 
Surf City’s municipal limit is to ensure that all property owners within Surf City receive the full template 
of beachfill while also constructing a natural, sloping transition from the nourished beach area to the 
existing beach adjacent to town line. 
This notification package includes a full copy of the permit application, but does not include the 
appendices due to document size. As per protocol for this notification, the notification package was sent 
via certified mail with return receipt and instructed to send any objections or concerns in writing to Mr. 
Jason Dail with NCDEQ. Locations of the property owners dwellings, letters to the homeowners and 
receipts of the certified mail packages can be found below.

Dear Mr. Gardner,
The Town of Surf City has applied for a Major Permit to conduct a beachfill and dredging project. This
project is intended to provide the Town with a beach nourishment project as an alternative to Federal 50
year Coastal Storm Damage Reduction Project which is currently authorized but not appropriated through
Congress. The sunset for the Federal project is 2021 and in anticipation of funding not becoming
available, the Town is electing to move forward with a privatized version. The local project, proposed by
the Town of Surf City, would provide oceanfront shoreline protection while also working to improve
navigation through the channel system surrounding Topsail Island. This permit application seeks to repair
dune scarping after a dune rehabilitation truck haul project is completed as well as provide an
approximately 80 foot wide dry sand beach in front of the new primary dune system.
A full copy of the permit application is enclosed with this letter for your review. As part of the permit
application process, Surf City is required to notify neighboring property owners of their application. Any
objections or concerns regarding the proposed project should be directed in writing, within the next 30
days, to:
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
