Re: Reauthorization Request for Sunset Beach Mary's and Turtle
Permit SAW-2002-00247
Dear Mr. Currey,
As we previously discussed via email on November 1, 2022, the Town of Sunset Beach
kindly requests that the USACE reauthorize SAW-2002-2002-00247. By copy of this
letter, the Town would like to request that the N.C. Division of Water Resources also
reauthorize State Water Quality Certificate No. 2001-1868v2. The USACE issued a permit
to the Town for the navigational dredging of Mary's and Turtle Creek originally on
December 11, 2018, with an expiration of December 31, 2021. A copy of the previous
authorization and original plans are enclosed with this letter.
Proiect Summary
The Sunset Beach Mary's and Turtle project falls within a larger scope by the Town to
maintain navigation access to the channels and canals along the eastern portion of Sunset
Beach. Mary's and Turtle Creek connect to the AIWW near the entrance to North Jinks
Creek and the Sunset Beach Causeway which provides navigation access to residents and
visitors to the area. Material will be mechanically dredged from Mary's and Turtle Creek
and placed on a barge or other floating work plant. The material will be transported to an
approved offloading site,and then placed in a truck for transportation to the upland disposal
area. Work on this project has not yet been initiated.
Permit Background
The N.C.Division of Coastal Management extended CAMA permit 132-18 for Mary's and
Turtle Creek until December 31,2023.The Town anticipates requesting an additional two-
year renewal of CAMA Permit 132-18, which, if granted, will extend the expiration date
of that permit to December 31, 2025. The Town therefore requests that the USACE and
N.C.Division of Water Resources extend their permits to December 31,2025 as well.This
extended expiration date will allow for sufficient time for the Town to complete the project.
If approved, the Town agrees to adhere to all requirements and conditions of the original
permits.

If there is any additional information that the Town can provide to facilitate your review
of this request, please do not hesitate to let me know. Thank you very much for your help
in this matter.
Sincerely,
� 4.

Dear Mr. Marziano,
Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to conduct maintenance
dredging within waters of Mary's Creek and Turtle Creek, located near the southern terminus of
Sunset Boulevard N., adjacent to the AIWW, in the Town of Sunset Beach, Brunswick County,
North Carolina.
Your proposal has been reviewed and found to be consistent with the provisions and
objectives of the CAMA-Corps Programmatic Permit process (copy attached) for construction
activities that receive authorization from the State of North Carolina. Therefore, you may
commence construction activity in strict accordance with applicable State authorization, attached
Federal special conditions, and the approved plan. Failure to comply with the State authorization
or conditions of the Federal permit could result in civil and/or administrative penalties.
If any change in your work is required because of unforeseen or altered conditions or for
any other reason, plans revised to show the change must be sent promptly to this office and the
North Carolina Division of Coastal Management prior to performing any such change or
alteration. Such action is necessary as revised plans must be reviewed and the authorization
modified. Your Department of the Army permit will expire on December 31, 2021.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Ms. Liz Hair, Wilmington Field Office,
Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
Liz Hair
Regulatory Project Manager

the United States, upon recommendation of the Chief of Engineers,pursuant to Section 10 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of March 3, 1899 (U.S.C. 403), and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(33 U.S.C. 1344), is hereby issued by authority of the Secretary of the Army by
District Engineer
U.S. Army Engineer District, Wilmington
Corps of Engineers
69 Darlington Avenue

TO AUTHORIZE THOSE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES IN THE 20 COASTAL
COUNTIES RECEIVING PRIOR APPROVAL FROM THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
IN THE FORM OF A COASTAL AREA MANAGEMENT ACT(CAMA)PERMIT,AND/OR
A STATE DREDGE AND FILL PERMIT,AND IF REQUIRED, A WATER QUALITY
CERTIFICATION, THAT ARE OTHERWISE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL
AUTHORIZATION IN THE FORM OF A NATIONWIDE PERMIT OR ANOTHER
REGIONAL GENERAL PERMIT.
OOperatin2 Procedures
a.Applications for joint state and federal authorization under this programmatic general
permit will be accepted through the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management(NCDCM).
Receipt of a complete application by the NCDCM will initiate the State's field review that will
include a site visit and preparation of a Field Investigation Report and a state Bio-Report. The
NCDCM will forward a copy of the complete application, its Field Investigation Report and its
Bio-Report,to the appropriate Corps of Engineers field office,thereby initiating federal review of
1

the project. The Corps, upon receipt of an application, will immediately assign an action
identification number, acknowledge receipt thereof, and examine the application to assure that it
can be processed pursuant to this programmatic general permit. The applicant and the NCDCM
will be furnished written notification of the Corps' determination. Notification to the applicant
will include a brief description of the administrative process.
b. For those proposals that may result in a discharge into waters of the United States,
including wetlands, the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) and the
applicant will be informed regarding the applicant's need to obtain a Water Quality Certification
in accordance with section 401 of the Clean Water Act.
c. If, at any time, the Corps determines that a proposed activity is eligible for
authorization under another regional general permit(RGP) or a nationwide permit(NWP), this
procedure may be terminated and the activity authorized pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the appropriate RGP or NWP.
d. The permit review process conducted by the NCDCM is a public process involving
publication of public notices in local newspapers, public hearings, and various public appeal
procedures. The Corps may issue a separate public notice for a specific proposal if it is deemed
necessary for compliance with appropriate laws, regulation and guidance.
e. This general permit does not, in any way, alter established procedures or
responsibilities, as required by federal laws, memoranda of agreements (MOA's) or
administrative regulations, with respect to the Corps' coordination with appropriate review
agencies. The applicant will continue to have the opportunity to rebut any objections to a
proposal.
f. The Corps will provide copies of the application and plans, the NCDCM's Field
Investigation Report, and the state Bio-Report, to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and any other federal agency that the Corps determines to be a necessary review agency
(collectively, the"Federal Agencies"). Receipt of this material will initiate the Federal Agencies'
review. The Federal Agencies will be allowed sufficient time, normally thirty (30) days, to
provide the Corps with their comments and recommendations, including any proposed permit
special conditions and recommendations of denial. The Corps may grant extensions of time for
Federal Agency review if justified by unusual circumstances. If an extension is granted that
would substantially delay an NCDCM decision, the application may be removed from this
general permit process.
g. The Corps will receive and review all Federal Agency comments as well as any
applicant rebuttal. Provided all Federal Agencies and the Corps are in agreement, the Corps will
prepare a coordinated federal position incorporating all Federal Agency comments, including
proposed permit special conditions and any recommendations for denial. The Corps will
2

typically furnish this coordinated federal position to the NCDCM within 45 days of its receipt of
the complete application, and copies of the Field Investigation Report and Bio-Report.
h. If the Corps does not concur with a Federal Agency's comments or recommendations,
the Corps will contact the Federal Agency and advise it of the Corps' position. Attempts to
resolve the issue may include initiating the referral procedures outlined by current memoranda of
agreement(MOA's) between the Department of the Army and the agency. No coordinated
federal position will be furnished to the NCDCM until and unless the Corps receives written
agreement from the Federal Agency that all issues have been resolved to the satisfaction of that
agency.
i. If any of the recommendations and/or conditions included in the coordinated federal
position are unacceptable to the NCDCM, the NCDCM will contact the Corps within ten (10)
days of receipt of the coordinated federal position and attempt to resolve the conflict. If
resolution of the conflict involves changes to the conditions or recommendations provided by the
Federal Agencies, the provisions of paragraphs g. and h. (above)will apply. If the conflict is
resolved to the satisfaction of the Corps and any affected Federal Agency, the NCDCM permit
will be issued and the authority of this general permit will apply.
j. If a Federal Agency conflict is not resolved within the time necessary for a decision by
the NCDCM, the NCDCM may proceed, independently, to conclude the state action without
inclusion of the federal position. In such case, the applicant and the NCDCM will be notified
immediately, in writing, that the state permit does not satisfy the federal permit requirements and
that the proposal in question may not proceed without federal authorization.
k. If the coordinated federal position is not in conflict with state agencies'positions, law,
regulation, or policy, and is acceptable to the NCDCM, a state permit will be developed by the
NCDCM fully incorporating the state and federal positions. The NCDCM will furnish copies of
the final permit to the applicant and the Corps. The NCDWR will furnish a copy of the Section
401 Water Quality Certification, if required, to the applicant and the Corps. The Corps will not
confirm the authorization of a proposed project under this General Permit until the issuance of
the NCDCM permit and, if required, the Section 401 Water Quality Certification.
1. If the NCDCM permit or Section 401 Water Quality Certification is denied, the
applicant will be informed that federal authorization is denied without prejudice.
m. No work may proceed under this general permit until the Wilmington District
Engineer or his representative provides written verification that the procedures and conditions of
the general permit have been satisfied.
n. The NCDCM and the Corps will monitor all permitted work and periodically inspect
projects for compliance with permit conditions and applicable state and federal regulations. If
any violation of the NCDCM permit is discovered which would also constitute a violation of the
3

federal position, both the NCDCM and the Corps, in accordance with their respective regulations
and policies, may take enforcement action.
o. This general permit will not be used to authorize an activity when the Wilmington
District Engineer determines that the proposed activity would significantly affect the quality of
the human environment and therefore require preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS).
General Conditions
a. Authorized structures located on or adjacent to Federally authorized waterways will be
constructed in accordance with the latest setback criteria established by the Wilmington District
Engineer. You may review the setback policy at
http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/Missions/Navigation/Setbacks.aspx. This general permit does
not authorize the construction of hardened or permanently fixed structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback, unless the activity is approved by the Corps. The permittee must
obtain approval from the Corps prior to the construction of any structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback.
b. Except as authorized by this general permit or any Corps approved modification to this
general permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place, at any
time in the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit
does not authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within
waters or wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill
activities connected with this project.
c. Authorization under this general permit does not obviate the need to obtain other
federal, state, or local authorizations.

and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project must remain in
full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North
Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4).
f. The activities authorized by this general permit must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States. No attempt will be made by
4

the permittee to prevent the full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent
to the authorized work for a reason other than safety.
g. The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if,
in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters,the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the Corps ,to remove, relocate, or alter the
structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim
shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
h. The permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of the permit for the verified
individual activity, may apply for an individual permit, or will, without expense to the United
States and in such time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized
representative may direct, restore the affected water of the United States to its former conditions.
i. This General Permit does not authorize any activity that would conflict with a federal
project's congressionally authorized purposes, established limitations or restrictions, or limit an
agency's ability to conduct necessary operation and maintenance functions. Per Section 14 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899, as amended (33 U.S.C. 408), no project that has the potential to
take possession of or make use of for any purpose, or build upon, alter, deface, destroy, move,
injure, or obstruct a federally constructed work or project, including, but not limited to, levees,
dams,jettys, navigation channels, borrow areas, dredged material disposal sites, flood control
projects, etc., shall be permitted unless the project has been reviewed and approved by the
appropriate Corps approval authority.
j. The permittee shall obtain a Consent to Cross Government Easement from the
Wilmington District's Land Use Coordinator prior to any crossing of the Corps easement and/or
prior to commencing construction of any structures, authorized dredging or other work within the
right-of-way of, or in proximity to, a federally designated disposal area. The Land Use
Coordinator may be contacted at: CESAW-OP-N, 69 Darlington Avenue, Wilmington,North
Carolina 28403-1343, email: SAWWeb-NAVgusace.arm mil.

inspect the authorized activity at any time deemed necessary to assure that the activity is being
performed or maintained in strict accordance with the Special and General Conditions of this
permit.
1. This general permit does not grant any property rights or exclusive privileges.
m. This general permit does not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others.
5

n. This general permit does not authorize the interference with any existing or proposed
federal project.

for the following:
(1)Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of other permitted or
unpermitted activities or from natural causes.
(2) Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of current or future
activities undertaken by or on behalf of the United States in the public interest.
(3) Damages to persons, property, or to other permitted or unpermitted activities or
structures caused by the activity authorized by this general permit.
(4) Design or construction deficiencies associated with the permitted work.
(5) Damage claims associated with any future modification, suspension, or
revocation of this general permit.
p. Authorization provided by this general permit may be modified, suspended or revoked
in whole or in part if the Wilmington District Engineer, acting for the Secretary of the Army,
determines that such action would be in the best public interest. The term of this general permit
shall be five (5)years unless subject to modification, suspension or revocation. Any
modification, suspension or revocation of this authorization will not be the basis for any claim
for damages against the United States Government.
q. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System,
or in a river officially designated by Congress as a"study river" for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency with
direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed
activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic designation or study status. Information on
Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal land management agency
responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or"study river" (e.g.,National Park
Service, U.S. Forest Service, etc.)
r. This general permit does not authorize any activity within, or directly affecting, a
marine sanctuary established by the Secretary of Commerce under authority of Section 302 of the
Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972, unless the applicant provides the
Corps with a certification from the Secretary of Commerce that the proposed activity is
consistent with the purposes of Title III of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act.
Information on marine sanctuaries may be obtained at http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/#MN.
6

Permittees may not begin work until they provide the Corps with a written certification from the
Department of Commerce.
s. In cases where the Wilmington District Engineer determines that the activity may
affect properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic Places and its
codified regulations, the National Historic Preservation Amendment Acts of 1980 and 1992, the
Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987 and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation
Act, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act(NHPA) have been satisfied. Permittees may not begin work until notified by
the Corps that the requirements of the NHPA have been satisfied and that the activity is
authorized.
t. If you discover any previously unknown historic, cultural or archeological remains and
artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this general permit, you must
immediately notify the Wilmington District Engineer of what you have found, and to the
maximum extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and
artifacts until the required coordination has been completed. The Wilmington District Engineer
will initiate the Federal, tribal and state coordination required to determine if the items or
remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of
Historic Places.
u. No activity is authorized under this general permit which is likely to directly or
indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or a species
proposed for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act(ESA), or
which will directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species.
No activity is authorized under any NWP which "may affect" a listed species or critical habitat,
unless Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed.
Information on threatened and endangered species and their critical habitat can be obtained
directly from the Corps field offices, the USFWS field offices or at the following web addresses:

Permittees may not begin work until notified by the Corps that the requirements of the
Endangered Species Act have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized.
v. If the permittee discovers or observes any live, damaged, injured or dead individual of
an endangered or threatened species during construction, the permittee shall immediately notify
the Wilmington District Engineer so that required coordination can be initiated with the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service.

GUIDELINES FOR AVOIDING IMPACTS TO THE WEST INDIAN MANATEE
Precautionary Measures for Construction Activities in North Carolina Waters
The West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), also known as the Florida manatee, is a Federally-listed
endangered aquatic mammal protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended(16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.) and the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as amended (16 U.S.0 1461 et seq.). The
manatee is also listed as endangered under the North Carolina Endangered Species Act of 1987 (Article
25 of Chapter 113 of the General Statutes). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is the lead
Federal agency responsible for the protection and recovery of the West Indian manatee under the
provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Adult manatees average 10 feet long and weigh about 2,200 pounds, although some individuals have been
recorded at lengths greater than 13 feet and weighing as much as 3,500 pounds. Manatees are commonly
found in fresh, brackish, or marine water habitats, including shallow coastal bays, lagoons, estuaries, and
inland rivers of varying salinity extremes. Manatees spend much of their time underwater or partly
submerged, making them difficult to detect even in shallow water. While the manatee's principal
stronghold in the United States is Florida, the species is considered a seasonal inhabitant of North
Carolina with most occurrences reported from June through October.
To protect manatees in North Carolina, the Service's Raleigh Field Office has prepared precautionary
measures for general construction activities in waters used by the species. Implementation of these
measures will allow in-water projects which do not require blasting to proceed without adverse impacts to
manatees. In addition, inclusion of these guidelines as conservation measures in a Biological Assessment
or Biological Evaluation, or as part of the determination of impacts on the manatee in an environmental
document prepared pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act, will expedite the Service's review
of the document for the fulfillment of requirements under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act.
These measures include:
1 The project manager and/or contractor will inform all personnel associated with the project that
manatees may be present in the project area, and the need to avoid any harm to these endangered
mammals. The project manager will ensure that all construction personnel know the general appearance
of the species and their habit of moving about completely or partially submerged in shallow water. All
construction personnel will be informed that they are responsible for observing water-related activities for
the presence of manatees.
2. The project manager and/or the contractor will advise all construction personnel that there are civil and
criminal penalties for harming, harassing, or killing manatees which are protected under the Marine
Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.

3. If a manatee is seen within 100 yards of the active construction and/or dredging operation or vessel
movement, all appropriate precautions will be implemented to ensure protection of the manatee. These
precautions will include the immediate shutdown of moving equipment if a manatee comes within 50 feet
of the operational area of the equipment. Activities will not resume until the manatee has departed the
project area on its own volition(i.e., it may not be herded or harassed from the area).
4. Any collision with and/or injury to a manatee will be reported immediately. The report must be made
to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service(ph. 919-856-4520),the National Marine Fisheries Service(ph. 252-
728-8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission(ph. 252-448-1546).
5. A sign will be posted in all vessels associated with the project where it is clearly visible to the vessel
operator. The sign should state:
CAUTION: The endangered manatee may occur in these waters during the warmer months,
primarily from June through October. Idle speed is required if operating this vessel in shallow
water during these months. All equipment must be shut down if a manatee comes within 50 feet
of the vessel or operating equipment. A collision with and/or injury to the manatee must be
reported immediately to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (919-856-4520), the National Marine
Fisheries Service (252-728-8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (252-
448-1546).
6. The contractor will maintain a log detailing sightings, collisions, and/or injuries to manatees during
project activities. Upon completion of the action, the project manager will prepare a report which
summarizes all information on manatees encountered and submit the report to the Service's Raleigh Field
Office.
7. All vessels associated with the construction project will operate at "no wake/idle" speeds at all times
while in water where the draft of the vessel provides less than a four foot clearance from the bottom. All
vessels will follow routes of deep water whenever possible.
8. If siltation barriers must be placed in shallow water, these barriers will be: (a) made of material in
which manatees cannot become entangled; (b) secured in a manner that they cannot break free and
entangle manatees; and, (c) regularly monitored to ensure that manatees have not become entangled.
Barriers will be placed in a manner to allow manatees entry to or exit from essential habitat.

Figure 1. The whole body of the West Indian manatee may be visible in clear water; but in the dark and
muddy waters of coastal North Carolina, one normally sees only a small part of the head when the
manatee raises its nose to breathe.
