PROJECT SUMMARY: Sprint Communications is requesting a permit to install 26,300 linear feet of 3/ " diameter fiber optic cable 3' below the bottom of Currituck Sound between Waterlily and Corolla within a 4 -inch wide trench. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT SPRINT CONaVIUNICATIONS PAGE 2 PROJECT SETTING Sprint Communications seeks authorization to install 26,300 linear feet of 3/a" fiber optic cable 3' below the bottom contour of Currituck Sound. The continuous cable would extend from residential property located off Waterlily Road in Coinjock to Currituck County's Whalehead Club property in Corolla on the Outer Banks. To access the mainland site, turn east off US Highway 158 onto Waterlily Road (SR 1142) and travel 3.5 miles. The subaqueous cable would begin on the north end and on the waterward side of the bulkhead protecting a residentially developed lot at 906 Waterlily Road. To access the Outer Banks site, turn west off NC 12 onto the Whalehead Club site located just south of the Corolla Lighthouse. The terminal pole is located 100' from the sound on the south end of the property. The waters of Currituck Sound in the vicinity of the project are classified as SC by the NC Environmental Management Commission. These waters are classified as joint waters by the NC Marine Fisheries Commission and NC Wildlife Resources Commission and as Estuarine and Public Trust Waters by the NC Coastal Resources Commission. Bottom contour in the project area (across the sound) ranges 0.5' - 9.0' below NWL. The presence of submerged aquatic vegetation was not noted in the vicinity of the project. Review of available information suggests that there are no known archeological sites or geological formations associated with the project site; however, the Whalehead Club is listed on the National Historic Register. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The installation of the 3/a " diameter cable across the sound would be accomplished by using a barge equipped with an embedment plow. Water under high pressure would be used to create a narrow 4 -inch wide trench. The plow is equipped with a sled designed to glide along the bottom substrate, thereby minimizing the uplifting of sand/sediment as the jetting/ embedment process is carried out. It is anticipated that the 3' -deep trench with cable at the bottom would backfill immediately as a result of sand/sediment resettling into it. Directional boring would be used to install the landward ends of the cable (approximately 150 linear feet at each end). On the mainland site, at 906 Waterlily Road, the cable placement is proposed within a 10' -wide easement located entirely within uplands and immediately landward of an existing bulkhead. At the Whalehead Club site, the applicant has secured a 20' -wide easement from the County. On this side, the directional bore would begin within uplands located 100' landward of NWL and terminate 50' offshore where the bottom contour measures 1.5' below NWL. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT SPRINT COMMUNICATIONS PAGE 3 ANTICIPATED IMPACTS NOV 0 3 2003 The installation of 26,300 linear feet of cable within a 4 -inch trench would: • Result in the disturbance of 8,770 square feet of estuarine/public trust shallow water habitat. • Create short-term turbidity in the project area.

A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The enclosed permit application entails the request for a joint application permit to install a submarine cable as shown within the drawings between the Waterlilly, NC water access point and the Corolla, NC water access point across the Currituck Sound for a distance of approximately 26,300ft. This submarine cable is a 3/4" diameter fiber optic cable with a neoprene jacket and a 48 count fiber core which will provide additional and much needed communication fiber service to the outer banks northern sector. In 1989/1990 a permit in the same general geographical area was provided by the governing agencies for the installation of a twin 35kv power circuit by North Carolina Power and installed by Crofton utilizing this same embedment method which we propose herein. We hereby solicit a permit to provide this communication link between the mainland and the outer banks of North Carolina across Currituck Sound. �o e Underwater Specialists Serving the Port of Hampton Roads Since 1949 NOV 0 3 2003 B. PROJECT METHODOLOGY As you will note in the drawings, there are no impacts to the wetlands on either side of the project and the Corolla Side has an existing upland terminal pole and at this point a directional bore will be conducted underneath the rip rap and out into the water stream area to eliminate any impact of shoreline disturbance. As noted once again on the photos and the drawings there are no wetlands on the Corolla side thus no environmental disturbance is to be expected. The Waterlilly Side has much the same termination area with the existing structure for termination upland and inboard of the waterline approximately 150 ft. Directional boring will once again be conducted with an inner duct provided well out into the water stream from the terminal pole underneath the bulkhead and to a point outboard which will allow non disturbance in the shoreline area once again in the transition section. The Waterlilly side also has no wetland vegetation that would be impacted during the course of these operations. The project methodology for the installation of the cable across the waterway will entail the utilization of a barge and in general the project will be as shown in the conceptual drawing provided herein. The cable lay barge will contain a beam attached to the deck of the barge and at the bottom base of the beam the embedment stinger device will penetrate into the substrate approximately 3ft. As the barge with the embedment plow is moved across the waterway with anchors, the sand/mud combination bottom composition will be displaced and an approximately 4" wide and a 3 ft deep trench will be developed. At the very bottom of the stinger/chute the cable will be deposited behind the sled in the small trench which will back fill immediately merely by resettlement of the material back into the trench. The sled device over top of the stinger/chute as shown in the drawing will allow the plow to rest on the bottom and glide along the bottom substrate and holding the trench to the proper elevation. The cable provided is a continuous cable with no splices. Upon arrival onsite the directional boring will have been completed from the upland areas approximately 150 ft inboard and upland from the existing waterlines. The 1" diameter inner duct will be provided from the termination point inshore to a point approximately 150 ft outboard from the mean low waterline. With our barge and cable laying device in position, the end of the cable will be pulled to the upland terminal through the inner duct and from this point to the opposite side of the sound, the cable will be embedded approximately 3 f into the substrate. Upon arrival on the opposite side of the sound the opposite end of the cable will be pulled through the inner duct once again and to the terminal pole on this side of the sound as well. During the course of these operations, tracking of our routing will be performed via GPS for accurate As -Built information and As-Builts of the projects will be provided indicating all activities during the construction operations. C. EMBEDMENT PLOW PROCEDURES As previously described, the embedment plow system initiates with a plow beam attached to the bow or stern of the cable lay barge and at the base of the beam that is shown in the conceptual drawing, the sled with stinger is attached and articulates depending on the bottom contours of the bottom substrate. High pressure water initiates an approximate 4" wide trench which is all that is necessary for a 3/4" diameter cable. This trench extends from the top of the substrate down to the bottom of the stinger which is approximately 3ft in depth. The chute is attached to the after (back) side of the stinger. Very little bottom disturbance is initiated during this operation and the sled which glides along the bottom substrate minimizes the uplifting of any materials as the jetting and embedment process continues. With the continuous cable and with no splices, no additional efforts are required during splicing operations. The continuous run of cable allows for continuous embedment which minimizes the disturbance of the plowing efforts. Please find enclosed the permit application which entails the applicable forms No. MP 1 and MP 2. As is obvious, there is no specific information within the permit application that steers one directly to an underwater utility description, but you will notice with the drawings as well as the photos provided, information is submitted herein which describes very thoroughly the activities not only across the waterway but on either side of the waterway as well. Should you have any questions concerning the information provided, please call as soon as possible @ 757-397-1131 or my cell phone # 757-636-0036. I appreciate very much your assistance for this project given the heightened condition of necessity as well as the weather window which we are facing as fall and winter approaches. It is our goal to begin operations during the late September or in early October 2003. With the approval of the property owners as shown in the enclosed affidavits as well as to other work similar to this project across the Currituck Sound, we hope that these facts will generate a quick turn around on this application for the final permit for Sprint.

Box 7756 • Portsmouth, Virginia 23707 • 757-397-1131 (24 hours) • Fax 757-397-8693 August 25, 2003 Coastal Area Management Authority 1367 U.S. 17 South Elizabeth City, NC 27909 Subject: Sprint Communications Submarine Cable Project Across Currituck Sound Topic: General Permit Application and Project Description Attn: Mr. Ed Harrell CAMA Supervisor Dear Sir: Pursuant to our conversations and meetings regarding the aforementioned topic and the subject application, I am pleased to provide this information as a preface description for the subject project. A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The enclosed permit application entails the request for a joint application permit to install a submarine cable as shown within the drawings between the Waterlilly, NC water access point and the Corolla, NC water access point across the Currituck Sound for a distance of approximately 26,300ft. This submarine cable is a3/4" diameter fiber optic cable with a neoprene jacket and a 48 count fiber core which will provide additional and much needed communication fiber service to the outer banks northern sector. In 1989/1990 a permit in the same general geographical area was provided by the governing agencies for the installation of a twin 35kv power circuit by North Carolina Power and installed by Crofton utilizing this same embedment method which we propose herein. We hereby solicit a permit to provide this communication link between the mainland and the outer banks of North Carolina across Currituck Sound. 8 Underwater Specialists Serving the Port of Hampton Roads Since 1949 B. PROJECT METHODOLOGY As you will note in the drawings, there are no impacts to the wetlands on either side of the project and the Corolla Side has an existing upland terminal pole and at this point a directional bore will be conducted underneath the rip rap and out into the water stream area to eliminate any impact of shoreline disturbance. As noted once again on the photos and the drawings there are no wetlands on the Corolla side thus no environmental disturbance is to be expected. The Waterlilly Side has much the same termination area with the existing structure for termination upland and inboard of the waterline approximately 150 ft. Directional boring will once again be conducted with an inner duct provided well out into the water stream from the terminal pole underneath the bulkhead and to a point outboard which will allow non disturbance in the shoreline area once again in the transition section. The Waterlilly side also has no wetland vegetation that would be impacted during the course of these operations. The project methodology for the installation of the cable across the waterway will entail the utilization of a barge and in general the project will be as shown in the conceptual drawing provided herein. The cable lay barge will contain a beam attached to the deck of the barge and at the bottom base of the beam the embedment stinger device will penetrate into the substrate approximately 3ft. As the barge with the embedment plow is moved across the waterway with anchors, the sand/mud combination bottom composition will be displaced and an approximately 4" wide and a 3 ft deep trench will be developed. At the very bottom of the stinger/chute the cable will be deposited behind the sled in the small trench which will back fill immediately merely by resettlement of the material back into the trench. The sled device over top of the stinger/chute as shown in the drawing will allow the plow to rest on the bottom and glide along the bottom substrate and holding the trench to the proper elevation. The cable provided is a continuous cable with no splices. Upon arrival onsite the directional boring will have been completed from the upland areas approximately 150 ft inboard and upland from the existing waterlines. The 1" diameter inner duct will be provided from the termination point inshore to a point approximately 150 ft outboard from the mean low waterline. With our barge and cable laying device in position, the end of the cable will be pulled to the upland terminal through the inner duct and from this point to the opposite side of the sound, the cable will be embedded approximately 3ft into the substrate. Upon arrival on the opposite side of the sound the opposite end of the cable will be pulled through the inner duct once again and to the terminal pole on this side of the sound as well. During the course of these operations, tracking of our routing will be performed via GPS for accurate As -Built information and As-Builts of the projects will be provided indicating all activities during the construction operations. C. EMBEDMENT PLOW PROCEDURES As previously described, the embedment plow system initiates with a plow beam attached to the bow or stern of the cable lay barge and at the base of the beam that is shown in the conceptual drawing, the sled with stinger is attached and articulates depending on the bottom contours of the bottom substrate. High pressure water initiates an approximate 4" wide trench which is all that is necessary for a3/4" diameter cable. This trench extends from the top of the substrate down to the bottom of the stinger which is approximately 3ft in depth. The chute is attached to the after (back) side of the stinger. Very little bottom disturbance is initiated during this operation and the sled which glides along the bottom substrate minimizes the uplifting of any materials as the jetting and embedment process continues. With the continuous cable and with no splices, no additional efforts are required during splicing operations. The continuous run of cable allows for continuous embedment which minimizes the disturbance of the plowing efforts. Please find enclosed the permit application which entails the applicable forms No. MP 1 and MP 2. As is obvious, there is no specific information within the permit application that steers one directly to an underwater utility description, but you will notice with the drawings as well as the photos provided, information is submitted herein ' which describes very thoroughly the activities not only across the waterway but on either side of the waterway as well. Should you have any questions concerning the information provided, please call as soon as possible @ 757-397-1131 or my cell phone # 757-636-0036. I appreciate very much your assistance for this project given the heightened condition of necessity as well as the weather window which we are facing as fall and winter approaches. It is our goal to begin operations during the late September or in early October 2003. With the approval of the property owners as shown in the enclosed affidavits as well as to other work similar to this project across the Currituck Sound, we hope that these facts will generate a quick turn around on this application for the final permit for Sprint.
