2008 MAINTENANCE DREDGING - "CONCRETE" CANALS
TOWN OF OCEAN ISLE BEACH
OCEAN ISLE BEACH, NC
Background
The small boat access "Concrete" canals off of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) in
Ocean Isle Beach were created in the 1960's to provide water access to residential homeowners.
The series of seventeen (17) shallow-draft canals provides boating access to approximately eight
hundred (800) properties, allowing easy access to the adjacent AIWW and Atlantic Ocean for
purposes such as fishing, recreation and navigation.
The last maintenance dredging of these canals was performed in 1996. Over the last twelve
years, significant shoaling has occurred resulting in inadequate depths in areas along these
canals. This project proposes to accomplish maintenance dredging in these canals in the
approximate footprint of previous permitted dredging activities.
Project Description
This maintenance dredging project proposes to use a hydraulic pipeline dredge to remove
approximately 56,650 CY of dredge material in approximately 23,990 linear feet of canal within
the dredge template as shown on the maps contained in this application package. All material
excavated will be pumped to US Army Corps of Engineers Disposal Area No. 306, located
approximately 1/2 mile west of the Odell Williamson Bridge along the AIWW. Pipeline corridors will
be established to ensure that no marsh areas or sensitive vegetation are disturbed. The locations
of floating and submerged pipeline will be clearly marked, and navigation notices will be sent out
to ensure boaters in the area are aware of any potential hazard to navigation.
Dredge prisms have been shown based on the previously obtained permits and notes are on
drawings to bring any possibly affected marsh areas or sensitive vegetation within the dredge
prism to the attention of the Engineer. All dredging will be performed during the months of
November thru March when biological life in the surrounding waters will be at a minimum.
An application for a CAMA Major Permit was submitted to the NC Division of Coastal Management
on September 2, 2008 and is currently under review.
An application for a Consent Agreement with the US Army Corps of Engineers for use of Disposal
Area No. 306 was submitted on August 20, 2008 and is currently under review.
Environmental Impacts
Since the maintenance dredging will be performed during minimal activities of biological life, it is
believed that environmental impacts resulting from the dredging activities proposed in this
project, in general, will be relatively minimal. All of the canal bottoms consist of sand, sediment
and detritus and have had maintenance dredging performed in 1996 as well as earlier dates.
With this maintenance project being directly correlated to previously approved CAMA Major
Permits and permit requirements, as well as performed within limitations of previously approved
contract documents, this project is in compliance with the North Carolina Environmental Policy
Act.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Dredge areas have been
minimized to the ereatest extent possible while allowing for continued navigation. Dredging
activities will be limited to the months of November through March when biological activity
will be at a minimum.
VIII. Mitigation
Page 9 of 13
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
htlp://h2o.enr,state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at
[phone] to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating
that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at httpJ/h2o.enr.state.nc.us,/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):.
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):

public (federal/state) land? Yes ® No ?
2. If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No

attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ? No ?
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
