Phase 1, Canal Maintenance Dredging Project
Effluent Monitoring Plan - 2009-2010 Dredging Cycle
The following effluent monitoring plan will be utilized at the Southern Shores Civic Association North
Marina Site for the monitoring of effluent quality associated with the use of a hydro-cyclone to process
dredge influent for the Phase 1 portion of the canal maintenance dredging project for the Town of
Southern Shores, Dare County, North Carolina.
The following outlines the Monitoring Plan
Constituents to be monitored:
2. Frequency of Monitoring:
Sample Method:
4. Sample Locations:
pH
Turbidity
3 samples taken daily for each day of active dredging
Grab Sample
a. Settling Zone immediately after the outlet to the
energy dissipation zone.
b. Settling Zone immediately before the overflow
structure.
C. Dosing Tanks within clearwell section of the
dosing tanks (second chamber) with one sample
to be taken from each active dosing tank. (These
samples will only be taken if the option to use
the Dosing Tanks is exercised.)
d. Canal system immediately adjacent to the
effluent discharge to the canal.
Please see the attached map illustrating the locations of sampling. The sampling locations have been
identified using the nomenclature shown above (a, b, c & d) to describe the four (4) sampling locations.
Sampling will also occur "downstream" if irregular turbidity is noted within the canal system.
Sampling will be reported weekly and will be performed over the during of the dredging window.

Subject: Possibly spam: Hydrocyclone for Dredging
Attachments: image001.png
Lyn,
We have recently been made aware of a new technology that can be used in the hydraulic dredging process that would
benefit the Town of Southern Shores in the Phase 1, Canal Maintenance Dredging Project.
This technology is a hydrocyclone. An example of one manufacturer that makes a hydrocyclone is DelTank.
This technology utilizes hydrocyclones (centrifuges) and filter screens to de-water spoil with no substantial de-watering
site. A video of this technology in use is available at the DelTank website, www.deltank.com.
The use of this technology deviates from the traditional methods permitted and used in the State of North Carolina.
To date we have permitted a more traditional approach with the use of a large earthen de-watering site and geotubes to
manage the spoil generation from hydraulic dredging.
The Town of Southern Shores has very few areas large enough to create a traditional earthen berm spoil containment
structure. The lack of suitable area has forced the town to permit the use of a very remote, privately owned parcel in
the Town for the de-watering site. The use of the hydrocylone will eliminate the need for the remote de-watering site.
The elimination of the use of this property will save the Town and the taxpayers of this State a significant dollar amount.
The Town can avoid the $380,000 lease, construction fees associated with the earthwork required to shape the
containment area, the geotextile membrane liner, the geotubes, 3.75 miles of dredge pipe, three booster pumps and
the environmental liability insurance policy. The Town can also avoid costs associated with the restoration of the site
including taking up the membrane, disposal of the membrane, regrading the site to pre-construction conditions, sand
fence, silt fence, stabilization measures, etc. The savings could reach or exceed $1,000,000.
The use of the hydrocyclone will also conserve time. The dredging can begin almost immediately with no time delays
required to create the de-watering area. Dredging has been limited to October 1, 2009 to February 15, 2010.
80% of this project is to be funded through grants from the NCDE&NR, Water Resources Section. The section has
committed to the availability of these funds for this dredging cycle only, after this cycle there are no guarantees that any
funds will be available adding to the urgency.
To date we are unaware of any project that has utilized this equipment to dredge a waterway within the State of NC. It
has apparently been utilized in the State to de-water hog waste lagoons in this State.
Contractor attending the mandatory pre-bid conference held last month have indicated confidence in being able to
dredge the Towns waterways by using this technology effectively and efficiently while adhering to the permit conditions
(permits were included in the bid documents with the bidders being instructed that they were responsible to comply
with the conditions contained in the various permits).
We have introduced the potential to use this technology in our bid documents through the bid alternate option. We
open bids on Thursday, October 8, 2009 at 3 pm and at that time we will be able to evaluate the actual cost savings
potential.
If, after review of the bids, the Town feels that the use of this project will save significant money and time we will need
to modify the existing permits to cover the change in technology.
We have also introduced(in the bid documents) the potential for bidders to take the spoil material to a facility permitted
to handle soil material in lieu of placing the material at the Duck Woods Country Club. When we open bids next
Thursday it will become clear whether we utilize the areas permitted to date or try to utilize other areas. This will be a
function of costs and logistics.
Due to time constraints we must pursue permit modifications expeditiously. We are taking this opportunity to introduce
this potential to the WaRO staff so that if, after the bid opening, we choose to pursue this option we can do so
effectively.
Please share and discuss this with your staff. I am available next week to discuss these options and how best to permit
them. Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Quible & Associates, P.C.

Secretary
As you may remember, a CAMA permit was issued by settlement agreement earlier this year for
the dredging of the Town of Southern Shores canal system. The project involved the use of a
hydraulic dredge with a traditional high ground diked disposal area. The applicants now wish to
use a new method of dewatering spoil material. The new method involves the use of a
hydrocyclonic dewatering system. I would ask that you review the attached information provided
by the applicant for a further discussion of this non-traditional dewatering method. After you
review the attached information, I would like to ask that you provide any comment that you have
to me so that these comments or concerns can be factored in to a final decision on whether or not
to authorize this new dewatering method.
If you have any questions on the specifics of this proposal, please give the project's consultant,
Mr. George Wood, a call at 252-441-0721. Otherwise, I would like to request any comments you
may as quickly as possible. Thanks in advance for your consideration of this matter.

Dear Mr. CeCe,
As discussed with you and Mr. Doug Huggett, the Town of Southern Shores has received bids for work
associated with CAMA Major Development Permit #95-09. The results of the accepted bid proposed an
alternative to the traditional earthen dike disposal method to the use of a hydrocyclonic dewatering
mechanism. Mr. Huggett determined that this method of dewatering spoils could be considered pursuant to
T15A NCAC 07H .0208 (b)(2)(G). "Publicly funded projects shall be considered by review agencies on a
case-by-case basis with respect to dredging methods and spoil disposal." Mr. Huggett suggested that this
review could be accomplished as a "minor modification" with a limited distribution to select review
agencies that would have substantive input on the procedure. Further, since this is a "time-sensitive
project" due to State funding allocation from the North Carolina Division of Water Resources and dredging
moratoriums, Mr. Huggett asked that I forward this request to you during his absence.
Included in this request is:
• this letter requesting the modification to CAMA Major Development Permit #95-09;
• a check for $100.00 payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources;
• eight copies of the plat depicting the area where the hydrocyclonic dredge will be positioned
including details of the relationship of the apparatus to the Nonnal Water Level;
¦ a copy of the deed for the North Marina site owned by the Southern Shores Civic Association;
• Letter of Permission from the Southern Shores Civic Association for the Town of Southern Shores
to use the site;
¦ a copy of Mining Permit No. 27-24, known as the Griggs' Pit, owned by Robert Parker and the
intended site for spoil disposal after dewatering;
¦ a letter from Mr. Robert Parker authorizing the Town of Southern Shores to dispose of the dredge
spoil in the Griggs' Pit;
• a detailed description by Piedroba Marine Construction, LLC (subcontractor to North Carolina
licensed contractor Sampson Contracting, Inc.) detailing the proposed dewatering methods; and
¦ Material Safety Data Sheets for polymers which may be used to flocculate very fine material from
the dredge slurry (to be used only if necessary).
The plan is to use the North Marina site for mobilization of the dredge, dredge tender, other watercraft, and
hydraulic influent pipes associated with the dredging. The upland area outside of the 30-foot Public Trust
Shoreline AEC will be utilized to support the hydrocyclonic dredge, water containment weir, parking,
temporary construction office, port-a-potty, generators, fueling facility, haul roads, and staging areas.
The site plan will be coordinated with the North Carolina Division of Land Resources for a revision to the
Erosion and Sediment Control Plan No. Dare-2010-001 issued for the project. The plan will also be
forwarded to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for revision to their Permit Action I.D. No. SAW
200703780.

FAX: [phone] • EMAIL: environmentall)[e-mail]
The dredge material once dewatered, as described in the Piedroba document, will be loaded on dump trucks
and hauled to the Griggs' Pit. The remaining water will be discharged to a weir system, and the very fine
sediment that remains will be removed by gravity unless the materials are too fine to allow for the effluent
to meet the DWQ standard for discharge. Additional treatment with polymers (which have been approved
for use in North Carolina) will be utilized to flocculate these materials only if necessary. The final
discharge of water will be routed to the canal system for discharge as stipulated in the permit.
This general overview is to assist in your review of the attached documents, and we look forward to
discussing this process with you on November 10, 2009.

4. Environmental Concerns
The sensitive environment in which the project will take place merits significant
consideration.
The 300SL is EPA TIER III compliant and meets the strictest noise pollution
mitigations. All hydraulic systems on the dredge operate with food grade hydraulic fluid.
The Holmes Beach is equipped with the most modern dredge profiling and positioning
system, ensuring that the dredge will always dig and operate within the designed dredge
profile.
Power for the TCS will be drawn off the public grid, eliminating the need for a
diesel generator. Eliminating the generatolfu significantly reduce noise levels on the
jobsite while also reducing the burning of fossil
It is critical to maintain water quality throughout the project both with regard to
turbidity and PH levels. Because of the seamless dewatering process it is crucial to ensure
that no suspended solids pass through the process and back into water system. The

APS 700 Series Floc Log.
Polyacrylamide Erosion Control Applicator Log
APS 700 Series Floc Log is a group of soil specific tailored log-blocks that
contains blends of water treatment components and polyacrylamide co-polymer
for water clarification and erosion control. They reduce and prevent fine particles
and colloidal clays from suspension in stormwater. There are more than 60
types of Floc Logs designed for varying soil and water conditions. Contact
Applied Polymer Systems, Inc. or your local distributor for testing and site-
specific application information.
Primary Applications
• Mine Tailings and Waste Pile ditches
• Newly cleared Construction or Building Sites drainage
• Road and Highway construction runoff ditches
• Ditch placement for all forms of highly turbid waters
• Dredging operations as a flocculator
Features and Benefits
• Removes solubilized soils and clay from water
• Prevents colloidal solutions in water within ditch systems
• Binds cationic metals within water, reducing solubilization
• Reduces pesticide and fertilizer loss during rain events from runoff
• Increases soil permeability and water penetration to shallow plants in ditches
• Reduces operational and cleanup costs
• Reduces environmental risk and helps meet compliance
Specifications / Compliances
• ANSI/NSF Standard 60 Drinking water treatment chemical additives
• 48h or 96h Acute Toxicity Tests (D. magna or O. mykiss)
• 7 Day Chronic Toxicity Tests (P. promealas or C. dubia)
Packaging
APS 700 Series Floc Logs are packaged in boxes of (4)
'technical Information
Appearance - Semi-solid block
Biodegradable internal Coconut skeleton
Percent Moisture - 40% maximum
pH 0.5% solution - 6-8
Shelf Life - up to 5 years
Placement
Each Floc log is designed for placement within a ditch averaging three feet wide
by two feet deep. Floc log placement is based on gallon per minute flow rates
Note: actual GPM or dosage will vary based on site criteria and soil/water testing.
Directions for Use
(Mixing of water and Floc Log is most Important)
APS 700 Series Floc Log should be placed within the upper quarter to half of a
ditch system or as close as possible to active earth moving activities. Simply
anchor a stake onto the center of the ditch system as far up slope as possible.
Place the attachment loop over the stake and lay the Floc Log into the center of
the ditch. APS 700 Series Floc Logs can easily be moved to different locations
as site conditions change. The addition of soft armor covered ditch checks below
the Floc Log will greatly improve water clarity. Construction of mixing weirs may
be required in areas where: short ditch lines, swelling clays, heavy particle
concentrations, or steep slopes may be encountered.
Cleanu :
Use soap and water to wash hand after handling. Plastic or rubber gloves are
recommended during movement after usage.
Precautions / Limitations
• APS 700 Series Floc Logs will become extremely slippery when wet.
• Clean up spills quickly, Do Not use water unless necessary, extremely
slippery conditions will result.
• APS Floc Log will remain viable for up to 5 years.
APS 700 Series Floc Log has been specifically tailored to specific soil types.
Soil types in varying geographical areas may require testing. If proper
performance of this product is not satisfactory, contact Applied Polymer
Systems.
