December 7, 1990 - U.S. Coast Guard Permit Application
submitted.
January 7, 1991 - CAMA Permit Application returned to NCDOT
for revisions. The main issue of concern was the need
for information regarding the construction access
channel and spoil disposal area.
January 25, 1.991 - U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued Bridge
General Permit No. CESAW-CO82-N-000-0031.
March 22, 1991 - 401 Water Quality Certification (No. 2581)

May 9, 1991 - Decatur Partnership agrees to allow NCDOT to
deposit construction spoil on their property located at

condition of this agreement, Decatur Partnership will
allow spoil deposition only if NCDOT constructs an
access channel to said property.

June 5, 1991 - U.S. Fish and Wildlife service recommends
denial of permit until impacts to Submerged Aquatic
Vegetation (SAV) and estuarine marsh are addressed.
June 26, 1991 - Preliminary survey of SAV growth in
construction channel by NCDOT Dive Team and staff
biologists.
July 15, 1991 - Preliminary meeting with National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) to discuss SAV survey
methodology and avoidance/mitigation measures. NMFS
suggests that NCDOT investigate possibility of back-
filling of construction channel, to be followed by
sprigging of SAV from adjacent areas of Currituck Sound.
July 30, 1991 •- Quantification and mapping of SP.V beds it;
bridge construction channei and spoil site access
channel, in accordance with NMFS' recommended
methodology, by NCDOT Dive Team and staff biologists.
August 13, 1991 - NMFS advises NCDOT that they will oppose
construction of an access channel to Decatur Partnership
property.
September 9, 1991 - NMFS and NCDOT meet to discuss results of
SAV survey. NMFS states that minimization of SAV
impacts should be investigated, i.e. alternative
construction techniques which would eliminate need for
dredging of construction channel in areas of SAV growth.
September 20, 1991 - DEM recommends that NCDOT should not
pursue plan to back-fill construction channel due to
potential impacts to water quality.

SUBJECT: Currituck/Dare Counties, Construction of New Bridge
Parallel to Existing Wright Memorial Bridge (US
158) over Currituck Sound (R-2418)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation
submitted a permit application for the subject project on
October 2, 1991. The permit drawings depict an access canal
to the Decatur Partnership tract on the southeast approach to
the bridge. This site was to be used for the disposal of
construction spoil, but has been rejected by NMFS and NCDOT
due to anticipated environmental impacts. The attached
sheets reflect revisions to the spoil disposal plan. NCDOT
now proposes to deposit construction spoil at the Moore-
Griggs site in Currituck County. Sheets 28 and 28A
illustrate the location and survey boundaries of this
property. The access channel to the Decatur Partnership
tract has been removed from revised Sheets 13 and 14. A copy
of the lease agreement for use of the Moore-Griggs property
will be forwarded to you upon completion of Right-of-way
negotiations with the owners.

jUBJECT: Currituck\Dare Counties - Construction of New
Wright Memorial Bridge on US 158 over Currituck
Sound; State Project No. 6.041005 (T.I.P. R-2418)
On January 14, 1992, we received correspondence from
your agency indicating that Bridge General Permit No. CESAW-
C082-N-000-0291 was applicable to this revised project. On
.'January 25, 1991, Bridge General Permit No. CESAW-CO82-N-
000-0031 had also been issued for this same project. on
!January 14, 1992, we also received a request for information
regarding avoidance, minimization, and mitigation of wetland
., mpacts. It is the opinion of the North Carolina Department
r?"of Transportation that these issues have been thoroughly
'addressed in the permitting and coordination process carried
'*ut for this project. At present, the Division of Coastal
anagement is reviewing our CAMA permit application, and is
I kely to issue a decision within the first half of 1992.
