If they use the area and it is determined to be non -compliant, I'm pretty sure we would most likely look at that as a violation of the permit. Let me know if you want to discuss or have any further questions.

The agreement they have arranged with the developers to use that land is outside our wheelhouse, but we will certainly inform CDC of this scenario. Meanwhile, I am interpreting this as an issue with the developer's permit potentially being out of compliance and not an issue with the Town's terminal groin permit, correct?

There is a little concern that the area depicted may be outside of the limits of disturbance approved in the erosion and sedimentation control plan for the development. If so, the plan will probably need to be modified to include the additional area. I've been told by DEMLR if they're just parking cars there, that wouldn't be considered a land -disturbing activity, but even if it's been cleared, if they are moving construction equipment/materials in and out, it sounds like the plan will need to be modified to include the entire staging area (or scaled back to ensure it all remains within the confines of the approved plan).

CDC has worked an arrangement with the developer of the residential development ("The Pointe") located just to the north of East 4th Street to use a portion of their property for additional staging. This area had already been cleared and the developer has already installed erosion control measures. CDC is sending us a figure showing this precise area shortly- I'll pass it along once I receive it. As far as the beach fill portion of the project, we have unofficially heard that the USACE's contractor Norfolk Dredging will begin sometime in February. I have asked Brennan Dooley to keep us in the loop once the contractor provides additional information- we plan to attend the pre -con meeting whenever that is set up.

Good morning Mickey and Heather, I just wanted to give you the heads up that the construction of the Ocean Isle Beach terminal groin started, as expected, on Tuesday, November 16th. The contractor, Coastal Design & Construction (CDC) offloaded some of their heavy machinery on the Shallotte Inlet spit and rolled west to the project site that morning and the crew began their prep work on the beach. The bird monitoring representative from Dial Cordy & Assoc. was on site during the mobilization process. CDC began their off -beach mobilization process on November 8th and started to utilize their staging area on Shallotte Blvd for the fabrication of the marine mattresses. Representatives from Coastal Protection Engineering (CPE), including myself, have been on site several times over the past week or so. I've attached our construction observation reports from November 12 and 16. Please let me know if you would like for us to continue to send our construction observation reports in the future- we will be visiting the site several times per week throughout the duration of the project. Feel free to reach out anytime should you have any questions, of course.

Construction access at East 4th Street has not yet been modified for use. The only portion of the operation that was operational during the time of the visit was the staging area on Shallotte Blvd. Construction will not begin until November 16, 2021. 3. Plans and specs and permits may have been on site; however, they were not conspicuous, and none were observed. 4. The JLS crew was observed fabricating marine mattresses; however, they were not actively filling mattresses with stone, nor was the marine mattress foundation being constructed during the site visit. 5. Brad Rosov (CPE) met with Project Superintendent Richard Mattingly (CDC) at the Staging Area on Shallotte Blvd. Richard oriented Brad to the layout of site and the various stages of the construction of the marine mattresses. A total of 44 completed marine mattresses were observed in stacks containing up to 6 mattresses per stack (See Photo #3). 6. Numerous potholes were observed at the intersection of East 4th Street and Columbia Street. 7. Stacks of plastic/rubber mats were observed at the Shallotte Blvd. staging area. These mats will be used on top of the marine mattresses to help distribute the load when machinery drives on the mattresses when brining stones to the structure (See Photo #4). 8. Stacks of wooden mats were observed at the Shallotte Blvd. staging area. These mats will be used on the beach at the access point and into the construction area to provide a foundation for flatbed trucks delivering stones to the site.

James Hargrove (Dial Cordy & Associates) was on -site to perform bird monitoring during the time the machinery was offloaded and tracked from the east end of the sand spit to the project site. 3. CDC crews were observed excavating the upper 2-3' of material from within the landward portion of the footprint of the rubblemound structure, approximately between Station 3+00 and 3+50. The material was being loaded onto offroad dump trucks and was being placed within the limits of the staging area to level out the area (See Photo #3). 4. CDC crews were observed laying wooden mats at the entrance to the beach staging area at the end of 4th Street and preparing to install the fence around the 4th Street staging area (See Photo #7). 5. The JLS crew (CDC subcontractor) was on -site at the staging area at the north end of Shallotte Blvd and were observed filling and stacking marine mattresses. The blasting mats (rubber mats to be placed on top of the armor) were also observed staged at the Shallotte Blvd staging area (See Photo #6). 6. Waterway Surveys & Engineering crew was observed on -site to collect topo points on the property (Jimmy Bell) being leased to CDC as additional staging / laydown area and to survey the nearshore area of the terminal groin footprint. 7. Richard Gunn (CDC) was observed directing the public walking along the beach away from the active construction area. 8. CDC was observed installing signage at the beach access site on East 4th Street stating that access to the construction site was for authorized personnel only. C Rion vin E■M.M.
