Pile Extraction Methodology Change
The North Carolina Department of Transportation(NCDOT)requests a modification of the above
referenced permits due to pile extraction methodology changes related to the demolition of the
existing Herbert C. Bonner Bridge(Bonner Bridge).NCDOT is proposing pile extraction
methodology changes between Bonner Bridge Bents 88-102(Permit sheets 11 and 12).
Cut-off piles from Bents 88 to 102—Supplemental Information
In the request letter dated January 7,2020,NCDOT requested a modification of the above
referenced permits for a pile extraction methodology change in the region covering Bents 88 to
102. The request was to change from the authorized jetting method to cutting off piles at the
mudline due to shallow water depths preventing the use of a barge-mounted floating assist crane
and other barge-mounted marine equipment. The contractor observed that current water depths in
the region that includes Bents 88 to 102 are only 1 to 5 feet.
In addition,Condition 20 of CAMA Permit No. 106-12 requires"Existing bridge pilings in SAV
areas and wetlands shall be cut off at the mudline.” Although SAV's have not been observed in
the area of Bents 88 to 102,the current shallow water depths of the site and SAV's in the project
vicinity indicate this area would be suitable SAV habitat. The authorized jetting method of
removing the existing bridge piles would impact the pile locations with jetting spoil and
depressions. The proposed method of cutting off piles at the mudline would have minimal impact
on the potential SAV habitat by not producing jetting spoil nor depressions on the bottom.

Cut-off piles from Bents 88 to 102
The current permit requires full extraction of existing bridge piles in the region that includes Bent
88 through Bent 186 midway along the existing Bonner Bridge. The piles are extracted by means
of jetting the full depth of the pile and then lifting the pile using a crane. However, as work has
progressed from north to south,the Design-Build Team observed that current water depths in the
region that includes Bents 88 to 102 are only 1 to 5 feet. These shallow water depths affect the
ability to fully extract the existing bridge piles by the current jetting method. The current permit
requires pile jetting and containment from Bent 88 through Bent 186 of the existing Bonner
Bridge. The jetting method requires the use of a barge-mounted floating assist crane and other
barge-mounted marine equipment;the barges cannot access areas where the water depths are so
shallow,and dredging is not allowed in the current permit. On November 25,2019,the Design
Build Team took water depth measurements in the region covering Bents 88 and 122(see
enclosure).Based on this information,the Design Build Team determined that the preferred pile
extraction methodology in the region covering Bents 88 to 102 should be changed from jetting to
cutting off piles at the mudline.
There would be no changes to permanent impacts from the modification of the proposed pile
extraction methodology.

*Permanent surface water and permanent fill in wetland impacts were calculated based on the type of foundation. If the foundation has a pile cap then the cap would be in the water- 1.0'based on the mean high water elevation,so
the cap dimensions were used instead of the individual pile sizes(giving us a larger footprint). If the foundation has 54"circular piles with no pile cap then the pile surface area was used to calculate the impact, plus a small area
immediately around the pile.
**The impacts for the removal of the existing bridge were calculated using the pile window(the extent that the piles project into the water)and not individual pile sizes. The demolition/pile removal in wetlands was considered
"Temporary Fill"because"Temporary Excavation"is not a category. NC DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
*** Impacts for the temporary work trestle,work bridge, and work platform were calculated as pile impacts. The piles being proposed are 36"circular piles The work trestle. platforms, and bridge all require two piles per span and
spans will be spaced every 40 feet apart. The boardwalk impacts are calculated as the entire footprint of the 10'wide boardwalk. Impacts for the trestle and breasting lines installed to remove the existing bridge were calculated as
36"pipe piles with the number of piles needed called out on the plan sheet. The impact has been added to the total shown under the existing bridge demo category. DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS
**** The underground utlility relocation going to be installed by bore and jack and the temporary weland impacts are for the bore pit needed to install the utility lines' and the footprint of the temporary riser poles. The
permanent fill in wetland hatching represents the permanent riser pole structure footprint.

FROM: Greg Daisey, Transportation Projects Field Representative, DCM
SUBJECT: Comments& Recommendations: CAMA Permit Modification(CAMA Major
Permit No. 106-12) TIP B-2500 Phase I - Replacement of Bridge No. 11 on NC
12, Dare County
DATE: February 4, 2020
The following are my comments and recommendations regarding the above-mentioned
modification request. The request is for changes to pile extraction methodology related to
demolition of the existing Herbert C. Bonner Bridge (Bonner Bridge), which is part of the
replacement of Bridge No. 11 over Oregon Inlet on NC Hwy 12, TIP No. B-2500 Phase I, in
Dare County. The current permit requires full extraction of existing bridge piles in the region that
includes Bent 88 through Bent 102. Extraction by means of jetting requires the full depth of the
pile to be jetted,then lifting the pile using a crane. NCDOT states as work has progressed from
north to south, the Design-Build Team observed that current water depths in the region that
includes Bents 88 to 102 are only 1' to 5' and the shallow water depths affect the ability to fully
extract the existing bridge piles by the currently authorized jetting method. The authorized jetting
method requires the use of a barge-mounted floating assist crane and other barge-mounted
marine equipment; the barges cannot access areas where the water depths are shallow, and
dredging is not allowed in the current permit. NCDOT states jetting the piles out from the top-
down operation utilizing the existing portion of Bonner Bridge would require two cranes, one
crane to support the cap and pile structure and one crane to support the jetting equipment. The
existing bridge currently under demolition only has the room/weight capacity for one crane,
making a two-crane system not feasible with the current demolition operation. According to
NCDOT,the Design Build Team requests that the pile extraction methodology related to Bents
88 to 102 be changed from jetting to cutting off piles at the mudline.

NCDOT—CAMA Major Permit No. 106-12
Bonner Bridge Demolition,Dare County
February 4,2020
Page 2 of 2
Based upon my review I have no objection to the issuance of this permit, but offer the following
conditions:
XThis Minor Modification of Permit 106-12 authorizes the demolition methodology for
Bents 88 to 102 to be changed from jetting/removing the piles in their entirety to cutting
off piles at the mudline related to demolition of the existing Herbert C. Bonner Bridge
(Bonner Bridge), as depicted on the attached work plan drawings.
Due to the dynamic coastal processes of Oregon Inlet, it is possible that the cut piles that
are left in place could become exposed above the mudline in the future if scour occurs in
the area. If this occurs, it could present a hazard to public trust usage. For that reason,
NCDOT should monitor all cut piles related to the demolition of the existing bridge iin..
open water at least once a year in the spring for 10 years to ensure that they all remain at
orbelow the mudline. NCDOT will provide the results of these annual surveys to DCM
in a brief written report. In addition, if NCDOT or DCM become aware of any remnants
of cut piles associated with the demolition of the existing bridge that become exposed at
any time in the future,NCDOT shall coordinate with DCM and other appropriate
agencies to determine if removal is necessary to avoid potential navigational hazards.
If it is determined that additional permanent and/or temporary impacts are necessary that
are not shown on the attached work plan drawing(s)or described in the authorized permit
application, a permit modification and/or additional authorization from the N.C. Division
of Coastal Management(DCM) shall be required. In addition, any changes in the
approved plan may also require a permit modification and/or additional authorization
from DCM. The permittee shall contact a representative of DCM prior to
commencement of any such activity for this determination and any permit modification.
Debris/material resulting from the cutting of the piles shall not enter wetlands or waters
of the State, even temporarily.
5. 's permit does not eliminate the need to obtain any additional state, federal, or local
permits, approvals or authorizations that may be required.
6,/All conditions and stipulations of the active permit remain in force under this Major
V Modification unless altered herein.
TE: The permittee and/or his contractor is encouraged to contact the N.C. Division of
Coastal Management Transportation Project Coordinator in Elizabeth City to request a
preconstruction conference prior to project initiation.

to cut piles of old bridge bents 88-102 off at the mudline
I would ask NCDOT how deep they can cut below the mud line before the disturbance associated with excavating around the pile
is more damaging than good. I could see a scenario where 1 foot below is ail they can do without a lot of excavation for the
equipment. If they could go two feet I would thing that shcLid be plenty sufficient, but obviously the issue in this area is how
dynamic it is. One storm and it could expose the remaining piles or cover them with two feet of sand you just don't know.

Hi Travis. A difference in my point of view is that these specific bridge pilings 88-1.02 are in areas that presumably do not
currently have wetlands or SAVs, but could become SAV areas in the future due to the water depths. DMF(Curt) had asked me
in conversation if DOT could possibly cut the piles off at something less than the mudline to allow SAV to root. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Since there was already a condition in the permit to allow bride pilings to be cut off at the mudline in wetland and SAV areas I
don't see this request changing the approved SAV mitigation plan. For the same reason WRC does not object to NCDOT's
request.

From a navigational perspective, we have no issue with the piles being cut off at the mudline from bents 88 to 102, because

MEMORANDUM:
TO: Cathy Brittingham, Transportation Coordinator
FROM: Curt Weychert, NCDMF Fisheries Resource Specialist
SUBJECT: NCDOT
DATE: January 30, 2020
A North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Fisheries Resource Specialist has
reviewed the modification for proposed actions that impact fish and fish habitats. The
applicant is modifying the removal methods of bents 88-102 of the old Bonner Bridge over
Oregon Inlet.
DMF's role is to comment on impacts to fisheries and habitat as well as commercial and
recreational fishing and navigation. DMF has concerns for both of these when talking about
cutting off bent piles at the mudline. From a navigation standpoint, this area is a highly
dynamic system directly adjacent to the inlet complex. Over time,the depths of the area
have varied from short term and long-term environmental impacts and will likely continue
to do so. If these bent pilings are cut at the mudline and then exposed at a later date, they
could cause a navigation concern. DMF would recommend that the NCDOT have a long-
term plan to monitor these pilings over time and address any problems in the future if
these cut off bents become exposed in the future. Additionally,depths of 1-5 Feet are ideal
for SAV which mapping shows occur near site of the piling removal. Cutting these pilings
right at the mudline may have a negative effect on the SAV that could potentially occur now
that there aren't shading impacts. DMF would recommend that the pilings be cut slightly
below the mudline (-12 inches) so that natural infill may occur and provide substrate
habitat for SAV rhizome growth, if possible.
I'm aware that these areas are in close proximity to the existing bridge, the likelihood of
boating activity in that area is small, and the impact area of a few pilings is negligible in
scale of the whole project area, however these are just some of the potential concerns that
DMF would like to be addressed.
Contact Curt Weychert at [phone] or Curt.Weychert@ ncdenr.gov with further
questions or concerns.

Hello,
Attached for your review please find 2 pdf files that constitute a request from NCDOT for a modification to CAMA
Major Permit No. 106-12 for the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge Replacement in Dare County. The request is to cut the
piles on Bents 88-102 of the old Bonner Bridge off at the mudline instead of complete removal.
Please also find attached in WORD a request for your agency's comments.
For your convenience, I am providing the following additional information from the DCM-Raleigh files in case it is
helpful to your review:
• Condition No. 20 of the original CAMA Permit 106-12 that was issued on 9/19/12 states as
follows: "Pilings in open water from the existing bridge and the temporary work trestles shall be
removed in their entirety, except that in the event that a bridge piling breaks during removal and cannot
be removed in its entirety, DCM shall be notified to determine an appropriate course of action. Existing
bridge pilings in SAV areas and wetlands shall be cut off at the mudline."
• Because the NCDOT submittal does not include a profile drawing of the area, I have attached the
original profile drawing for this area dated 6/22/12 that was submitted by NCDOT with the original
permit application. Although it does not provide labels for the old bridge bent numbers, it depicts the
new bridge bent numbers along with the station numbers, mean high water, mean low water, existing
ground elevation, long term bed elevation, total scour, etc.
• From my rough calculations, it appears as though the linear distance from Bent 88 to Bent 102 is
approximately 900 feet.
• When CAMA Permit 106-12 was issued on 9/19/12, the estimated permanent impacts to SAV's due to
shading effects was 2.66 acres from the new bridge. DOT received SAV mitigation credit of 1.38 acres
due to the areas that would be un-shaded by removal of the old bridge. This left 1.28 acres of net
impacts to be mitigated off-site. Your agency's comments would be appreciated, if it is relevant to your
agency, regarding whether this NCDOT proposal may or may not influence the project's approved SAV
mitigation plan.
