9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The 9 locations of this proposal are east of and adjacent to NC 12 from 1.73 miles to 3.71 miles
southwest of the Hatteras-Ocracoke Ferry Terminal on Cape Hatteras National Seashore (CHNS)
property on Ocracoke Island in Hyde County, North Carolina. Although the majority of the
project is located on CHNS property, the NC DOT has a 150-foot right-of-way for NC 12, and
has applied for a special use permit from CHNS. The entire project is located within the Ocean
Erodible Area AEC. The long term average annual erosion rate is 6 feet from 1.73 to
approximately 2.2 miles southwest of the Hatteras-Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and 9 feet in the
remainder of the project area. Breaks in the dune system along NC 12 have occurred due to ocean
overwash during Tropical Storm Gustav. Locations 1, 2, 4, 6 and 7 detailed in the application
package are overwash areas that have essentially changed the frontal dune to a broad, flat,
sparsely vegetated area lacking the height and configuration typical of frontal dunes. Although
locations 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 are approximately 10-20 percent vegetated, they are not stable and the
elevation of the dune has been reduced to allow overwash during relatively minor storms.
Locations 3, 5, 8 and 9 are relatively narrow areas 15-79 feet wide, unstable and void of
vegetation, where the ocean has breached the primary dune.
Location 1 is approximately 1267 feet in length beginning 1.73 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 63 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 45 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 10 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 2 is approximately 422 feet in length beginning 2.03 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 50 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 50 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 4 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 3 is approximately 52 feet in length beginning 2.15 miles southwest of the Hatteras-
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 50 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 25 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 8 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 4 is approximately 739 feet in length beginning 2.24 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 45 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 39 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 8 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 5 is approximately 79 feet in length beginning 2.51 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 52 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 30 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 15 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 6 is approximately 422 feet in length beginning 2.59 miles southwest of the Hatteras-
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 65 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 9 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 21 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.

Location 7 is approximately 686 feet in length beginning 2.76 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 52 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 33 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 8 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 8 is approximately 15 feet in length beginning 3.46 miles southwest of the Hatteras -
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 55 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 12 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 165 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Location 9 is approximately 15 feet in length beginning 3.71 miles southwest of the Hatteras-
Ocracoke Ferry Terminal and the width of the adjacent stable dune is approximately 50 feet with
the water ward edge approximately 17 feet from MHW and the landward edge of the dune
approximately 165 feet from the asphalt of NC 12.
Vegetation onsite is typical of this zone and includes Sea Oats, American Beach Grass and
Pennywort. Sand has overwashed and overblown onto the road and road shoulders at all locations
except 8 and 9, which are 165 feet from N.C. 12. Primary dunes in all locations, excluding
Location 8), have previously been reconstructed or reshaped under CAMC Major Permit 135 -93.
The proposal is to reconstruct approximately 2,378 feet of primary dunes in overwash locations 2,
4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 by adding dredge spoil fill after utilizing overwashed and overblown sand from
the 10-foot road shoulder along NC 12. The reconstructed dunes would be filled and shaped to
closely resemble the corresponding dunes at each end of the overwashed areas. After
reconstruction of the dunes, sand fence would be installed at over wash locations 1 through 7 on
the ocean side dune base in 10-foot sections spaced 7 feet apart and facing northeast (running from
southeast to northwest). Locations 1-7 are proposed to be planted with 80% American Beach
Grass and 20% Sea Oats on 18" centers.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
As proposed, the reconstruction of these 7 areas of dune overwashed by Tropical Storm Gustav
would result in the filling of approximately 144,230 square feet of upland sand dune and the
excavation of approximately 9,720 square feet of upland road shoulder. Installation oil' the sand
fence sections facing the northeast winds should trap sand from blowing across the dunes and
reinforce the reconstructed dunes. The removal of sand from the road shoulders of N.C. 12 would
eliminate the natural migration of the dune sand that is naturally forming a small secondary dune
north of N.C. 12.
NC DOT has reduced the Ocean Erodible Area AEC impacts associated with this proposal by not
disturbing vegetated dunes, allowing no heavy machinery on vegetated dunes or water ward of the
ocean side dune toe and by installing the sand fence using hand tools. The primary use of this site
will be for short-term protection of N.C. 12.
The collective disturbance area for the project is 3.53 acres.

Attention: Bill Arrington
The purpose of this letter is to request a CAMA major permit for the dune work on Ocracoke
Island. The North Carolina Department of Transportation is proposing to reconstruct dunes and erect sand
fencing in an attempt to stabilize existing eroded dunes on Ocracoke Island. The current state of the eroded
dunes is the result of Tropical Storm Gustav that impacted the coastal area on 09/10/02. The general area of
the proposed work begins 1.7 miles from the ferry dock and ends 3.71 miles from the ferry dock. There are
a total of 9 locations within a 2-mile area that need dune reconstruction. These 9 locations are detailed in a
summary provided with this letter. The reconstructing of the dune areas will involve the placement of
approved sand in designated areas. This sand will be shaped in coordination with the permit drawings that
are provided and as was discussed in an on-site meeting between the Division of Coastal Management
(DCM), National Park Service and NCDOT representatives in September of 2002. There will be no
disturbance of existing vegetated dunes. The newly constructed dunes will be at the same height of the
existing dune on either side and tied in so the dune is continuous. Sprigging of the rebuilt dunes will take
place immediately after the dune reconstruction is finished or during the most productive time to plant. This
will be done with 80 % American beach grass and 20% sea oats. The sand fence will be installed using hand
tools such as a sledgehammer, etc. The bundles of sand fence will be moved by means of a small tractor or
ATV four wheeler. A general work plat has been included with this letter to show the layout of the sand
fence placement. This work will be done in accordance with the approved guidelines established and
provided by the National Park Service and the Division of Coastal Management. Consultation with the
National Park Service and the Division of Coastal Management will be taken during the life of the project.
In order to prevent any detrimental effects on protected animals that use the ocean shoreline, this work will
be done in a timely manner and scheduled in coordination with the DCM and the Park Service. A special
use permit from the National Park Service is being acquired along with this CAMA major permit to conduct
this work. If any additional information is needed, please call Clay Willis at 252-482-5889.

F3i1],
Attached to this e-mail are tho estimates for the
disturbed/filled area at each site for the proposed dune work on
Ocracoke Island. These estimates are based on a 60 feet base
width of the dune and 1.0 feet of road shoulder disturbance where
needed. Most of this work will occur within the DOT right-of-way.
If you need any additional information for this permit please let
me know. I will be sending you a hard copy of this letter also.
I spoke with the Marshall Collins family this morning and
they supposed to be faxing me a letter today stating they have ric
problem with the pier placement on the boardwalk project.
Have you heard anything from the COE on the Swan Quarter
Ferry?
Thanks,
Clay
