Good morning Mr. Pitts,
We have no objections as long as the piles are well lit (boat traffic starts around 4am).
If this does get approved, we would appreciate a heads up. The station can advertise it on their facebook page as well.
v/r,
LT Akers

Subject: [Non-DoD Source] B-2500 Bonner Bridge Project - Additional Temporary Breasting Line
Due to shoaling issues around the remnant bridge/fishing pier and existing temporary breasting lines on the south side
of Oregon Inlet, the Contractor (PCL) has requested to place a new breasting line in deeper water at the site. This would
be for the Crofton 4600 crane/barge that must remain on the east side of the new bridge. The Crofton has been tied up
to the remnant bridge/fishing pier, but that access will not be available if shoaling in the area continues as anticipated.
Before we submit requests for permit modifications, I wanted to get your comments on this new temp. breasting line
alignment. The line is close to the centerline of the current navigation channel. The Crofton is 72' wide, so placing it on
the north side of the breasting line would place it 226' from the centerline of the channel at most.
Emily,
Would this proximity to the marked channel be an issue with Section 408?
Thanks for looking at this, and feel free to call me if you would like to discuss.
