9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project is located at the end of Canal Street (S.R. 1415) in eastern New
Hanover County. The upper end of Motts Creek crosses the extension- ,of...Canal
Street to -tthe There-is-a mixed high marsh community associated with
the creek at this point. Several species including Scirpus sp. and Juncus
romerianus are present. The stream is approximately 10' wide at the project
crossing. The wetlands are approximately 150' wide at this location. There
is a finger of this marsh located west of the end of Canal Street which extends
to the north of the main creek. This is approximately 90' wide at the project
location.
The applicants propose to install a 10" wastewater outfall line across the
creek and its wetlands as well as the finger of wetlands to the west of the
street. Approximately 490' of 4' wide trench will be excavated to a depth of
2'-6' through the general area of the creek from manhole 100.1.4 to manhole
100.1.7. This involves approximately 240' of wetlands. The spoil from the
wetlands will be contained above"the mean high water (MHW) contour in fabric
spoil retention areas located adjacent to the wetlands as shown. Approximately
400 cubic yards will be excavated for the total project. Approximately 300
cubic yards of excavated material and bedding stone will be used to reclose
the trench. Pile bents will be used to support the pipe in both wetland
areas. The elevation of the project will be returned to marsh level in the
wetlands.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
If the excavated material is contained above the MHW contour and the wetland
elevations are restored no adverse impacts are anticipated.

We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department
of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by August 5, 1985, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
