PROJECT SUN LVIARY: The Town proposes to excavate a portion of the existing earthen causeway and construct a bridge, connecting two dead-end canals, off Davis Canal, to facilitate and improve water flow. 0 Town of Long Beach Page 2 9. PROTECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located on 15th Street SW, in Long Beach, in Brunswick County. A portion of the street exists as a causeway/earthen dam between two (2) finger canals that branch off Davis Canal. In the area of the proposed bridge, the causeway is approximately 50 feet wide and it is stabilized along both shorelines by vertical wooden bulkheads. The existing pavement is 18-20 feet wide and the road shoulders are grassed. Waterward of the bulkhead, there is a border of coastal wetlands, primarily Smooth Cordgrass (S.partina alterniflora), approximately 15 to 20 feet wide. The waters of Davis Canal are classified as SA by the NC Division of Water Quality. They are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish. This site is within a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) designated by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries. The applicants are proposing to excavate a portion of the existing earthen causeway, connecting the two dead-end finger canals, to facilitate and improve water flow. The project would require 105 linear feet of wooden bulkhead to stabilize the both sides of the highground excavation and connect to the existing bulkhead walls. The Town proposes to construct a bridge over the new water connection to maintain the roadway. The bridge would be 30 feet long and 39 feet wide, supported by concrete pilings and cap at either end. The bridge deck would be cored slab concrete, providing a clear span of 30 feet, and a navigational vertical clearance approximately 6 feet above mean high water. To facilitate water flow, excavation of the canal areas adjacent to the causeway would be completed to connect to the existing -3 ft. elevation (NGVD) contour, or A ft. at mean low water. This would include an area 50 feet by 70-85 feet on the west side of the causeway, and an area 40 feet by 35-60 feet on the east side of the causeway. 10. ANTICIPATED EVIPACTS The proposed would incorporate approximately 2900 square feet of coastal wetlands (Spartina alterniflora). An additional 3200 square feet of shallow bottom habitat would be disturbed from the canal excavation, as well as, 1750 square feet of highground excavation. Additional highground disturbance adjacent to the bridge site can be, expected during the construction period. The proposed bridge would provide a connection between two existing dead-end canals. The increased flow would provide better tidal flushing and hopefully, a resulting improvement in the water quality in the canals. The proposed bridge would create a corridor for small vessel navigation that currently does not exist. Submitted by: E.F.

The proposed impacted area consists of 0.2 acres. The vegetation on the tract consists of Spartina alterniflora, Smilax sp., Myrica cerifera, E. Bacchrus, Pinus taedea, and lawn grasses. The proposed project consists of the replacement of an earthen/asphalt plug with a 39' X 30' prestressed concrete cored slab bridge on support pilings. The water depth at the crossing will be 1.0' (NGVD). The purpose of the proposed project is to improve water quality within an existing primary nursery area, allowing the flow of water and aeration of subaqueous water layers. The construction of the proposed project will result in the loss of approximately 6,000 square feet of coastal wetlands during the removal of 980 cubic yards of material below MEW. The net total loss of wetlands in the project area will be mitigated by the natural revegatation of shoreline areas with wetland plant species. The mitigation for the permanent loss of coastal wetlands lies within the project purpose of increased water quality and subsequent increase in area bioproductivity. The following application expands on the proposed plan with information concerning shoreline stabilization and high ground excavation. a, - r F N !` t?

PROJECT SUMMARY: The Town proposes to excavate a portion of the existing earthen causeway and construct a bridge, connecting two dead-end canals, off Davis Canal, to facilitate and improve water flow. Town of Long Beach Page 2 9. PROTECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located on 15th Street SW, in Long Beach, in Brunswick County. A portion of the street exists as a causeway/earthen dam between two (2) finger canals that branch off Davis Canal. In the area of the proposed bridge, the causeway is approximately 50 feet wide and it is stabilized along both shorelines by vertical wooden bulkheads. The existing pavement is 18-20 feet wide and the road shoulders are grassed. Waterward of the bulkhead, there is a border of coastal wetlands, primarily Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), approximately 15 to 20 feet wide. The waters of Davis Canal are classified as SA by the NC Division of Water Quality. They are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish. This site is within a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) designated by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries. The applicants are proposing to excavate a portion of the existing earthen causeway, connecting the two dead-end finger canals, to facilitate and improve water flow. The project would require 105 linear feet of wooden bulkhead to stabilize the both sides of the highground excavation and connect to the existing bulkhead walls. The Town proposes to construct a bridge over the new water connection to maintain the roadway. The bridge would be 30 feet long and 39 feet wide, supported by concrete pilings and cap'at either end. The bridge deck would be cored slab concrete, providing a clear span of 30 feet, and a navigational vertical clearance approximately 6 feet above mean high water. To facilitate water flow, excavation of the canal areas adjacent to the causeway would be completed to connect to the existing -3 ft. elevation (NGVD) contour, or -1 ft. at mean low water. This would include an area 50 feet by 70-85 feet on the west side of the causeway, and an area 40 feet by 35-60 feet on the east side of the causeway. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS The proposed would incorporate approximately 2900 square feet of coastal wetlands (Spartina altend lora). An additional 3200 square feet of shallow bottom habitat would be disturbed from the canal excavation, as well as, 1750 square feet of highground excavation. Additional highground disturbance adjacent to the bridge site can be expected during the construction period. The proposed bridge would provide a connection between two existing dead-end canals. The increased flow would provide better tidal flushing and hopefully, a resulting improvement in the water quality in the canals. The proposed bridge would create a corridor for small vessel navigation that currently does not exist. Submitted by: E.F.
