2017 Pre-con Meeting Notes 2/8/2022

Hatteras Inlet Maintenance Event
Pre -Construction Process
The following list has been developed based on the conditions included in CAMA Major Permit 129-16,
DOA Permit SAW-2016-02140, Water Quality Certification DWR #13-1279 v2, and discussions during
the April 6, 2017 pre -construction meeting.
1. The County and/or its agent will contact Jim M. of the USACE to request a survey of the channel
to determine the need for channel maintenance.
2. If the County, in discussions with the USACE, determines the need for a maintenance event, the
County and/or its agent will delineate the location of SAV resources in proximity to the Channel
Corridor based on the most up to date aerial imagery available to verify that SAV is not located
within 100 feet of the proposed channel. This information will be provided to DCM so that they
can field verify the delineation. Likewise, the County and/or its agent will verify that the no
dredging will occur in areas where the Tideland Cable is positioned above -15 ft. MLW. If a
cultural resource survey of the entire channel corridor has not been conducted, the County and/or
its agent will verify that the proposed dredging of the channel will occur within the footprint of
previous dredging.
3. The County and/or its agent will provide the Division of Coastal Management (Steve Trowell)
and the USACE (Josh Pelletier) with the information required as a condition of the permits
(CAMA Permit Condition #7 and DOA Permit Condition #9 & #33), two weeks prior to
dredging. This information is to include:
a. Number of the original permit;
b. Statement that no dimensional changes are proposed;
c. Copy of the original permit plans with the location of the current proposed channel
indicated;
d. The method of dredging to be used and any areas to be used for spoil disposal;
e. Estimated amount of material to be removed;
f. Location of SAV in proximity to the channel corridor;
g. Date of map revision and permittee signature;

4. Concurrent with item #3 above, the County and or its agent will schedule a pre -construction
meeting with the state and federal regulatory agencies as well as the USACE dredge operations
staff.

practicality of dredging during outgoing tides only.
6. Following the Pre -Construction meeting, the County will provide Notice to Proceed to the
USACE to commence dredging.
