RE: Letter of Authorization, Relocate Sand, CAMA Major Permit No. 106-12, TIP B-2500
Phase I, Replacement of Herbert C. Bonner Bridge over Oregon Inlet in Dare County.
Dear Mr. Williams:
This letter is in response to a request from the N.C. Department of Transportation (NCDOT)
dated October 4, 2018 to remove sand from an encroaching dune adjacent to Lifeboat Station
Road at the south end of the B-2500 Phase I project and relocate it to the existing stockpile in the
vicinity of the Old Coast Guard Station at the end of Lifeboat Station Road. The request
includes a Cover Letter and nine(9) drawings, all dated as received on October 4, 2018.
NCDOT is proposing.
NCDOT states that due to the contour of the dune, some sand would have to be removed from
outside of NCDOT easement to slope the dune back to a stable contour. This would impact U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) property on Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Approximately 17,000 sq. ft. (0.390 acres) outside of the NCDOT easement would be impacted,
removing approximately 8,125 cubic yards of sand from the Refuge. Approximately 18,000 sq.
ft. (0.413 acres) of the dune within the NCDOT easement would be impacted,removing
approximately 7,650 cubic yards of sand from this site. There is currently no vegetation in the
proposed work area. The USFWS issued Special Use Permit#2018-006G for the proposed work
on 10/12/18.
Please be advised that through this Letter of Authorization, the N.C. Division of Coastal
Management(DCM) conveys its determination that the relocation of approximately 15,775 cubic
yards of material adjacent to Lifeboat Station Road in Dare County, as described in your request
dated October 4, 2018, is consistent with existing State rules and regulations and is in keeping
with the original purpose and intent of CAMA Major Permit No. 106-12.

Page 2 of 2
This Letter shall be attached to the original of CAMA Permit No. 106-12, which was issued on
September 19, 2012, as well as all subsequent modifications and Letters of Authorization, and
copies of all documents shall be readily available on site when a DCM representative inspects
the project for compliance. All conditions and stipulations of the active permit remain in force
unless altered herein.
This approval does not eliminate the need to obtain any additional permits, approval or
authorizations that may be required. Nothing in this permit authorizes any activity that has not
received approval from the National Park Service (NPS) and/or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS)], if required, for work within the Cape Hatteras National Seashore and/or Pea
Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Please contact Greg Daisey at [phone] ext. 249 if you have any questions or concerns.

Subject: Request for the Modification of CAMA Major Permit No. 106-12
Dune relocation at the B-2500 Bonner Bridge Project in Dare County
WBS#32635.1.4
Dear Mr. Daisey,
The North Carolina Department of Transportation is requesting a modification to
CAMA Permit No. 106-12 to authorize the relocation of sand from an encroaching dune on the
south end of the B-2500 project. The adjacent dune to the intersection at the south end of the
project has migrated significantly westward since the permits were issued. To construct the
intersection, a portion of the dune would have to be removed from this site and relocated down
Lifeboat Station Road to NCDOT property at the Old Coast Guard Station. Due to the contour of
the dune, some sand would have to be removed from outside of NCDOT easement to slope the
dune back to a stable contour. This would impact US Fish and Wildlife Service property on Pea
Island National Wildlife Refuge. Approximately 0.390 acres(17,000 sq. ft.)outside of the
NCDOT easement would be impacted,removing approximately 8,125 yards of sand from the
Refuge. Approximately 0.413 acres(18,000 sq.ft.)of the dune within the NCDOT easement
would be impacted,removing approximately 7,650 yards of sand from this site. All removed
sand would be placed within NCDOT property located at the Old Coast Guard Station at the end
of Lifeboat Station Road.
NCDOT is coordinating with the USFWS to acquire a permit for this project. NCDOT
will also coordinate with the US Corps of Engineers and NC Division of Water Resources for
this work. Included with this letter are a map, drawings,and aerial photos of the proposed work.
If you have questions,please contact me at(252)482-1861 or pcwilliams2ancdot.gov.
Sincerely,
Jerry Jennings, P.E.

11) Describe activity by specifically identify timing(occupancy timeline),frequency, and how the activity is expected to proceed:
This is a one time project of approximately 2 weeks. NCDOT requests authorization to relocate sand from an encroaching dune on the south end of the
B-2500(Bonner Bridge Replacement)project. The adjacent dune to the intersection at the south end of the project has migrated significantly westward since
the permits were issued. To construct the intersection,a portion of the dune would have to be removed from this site and relocated down Lifeboat Station
Road to NCDOT property at the Old Coast Guard Station. Due to the contour of the dune,some sand would have to be removed from outside of NCDOT
easement to slope the dune back to a stable contour. This would impact US Fish and Wildlife Service property on Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Approximately 0.390 acres(17,000 sq.ft.)outside of the NCDOT easement would be impacted,removing approximately 8,125 yards of sand from the Refuge.
Approximately 0.413 acres(18,000 sq.ft.)of the dune within the NCDOT easement would be impacted,removing approximately 7,650 yards of sand from this
site. All removed sand would be placed within NCDOT property located at the Old Coast Guard Station at the end of Lifeboat Station Road.

Greg,
Letter of request for permit modification is attached, as well as supporting documents. Let me know if you need anything else.
Kyle and Garcy,
Even though this is all upland work, I know the whole project has been federalized. NCDOT requests any permit modifications
necessary for this work. Please see attached documents and let me know if you need anything else. I have applied for a USFWS
permit to impact the Refuge property, and I'll send you that permit when issued.
Thanks,
