Storm events in 2018 and 2019 damaged the spoil site berm around the
perimeter of the site and impacted the shoreline where no rip rap was
present. In 2019, we received permits to stabilize the section to the
southwest of the existing rip rap to prevent further erosion. However, due to
budgetary constraints we were not able to complete the project as planned.
In August 2020, Hurricane Isaias caused additional damage to the spoil site
southwest of the existing rip rap and also impacted the section to the
northwest of existing rip rap. Rather than only stabilize the currently
permitted section, we felt it would be prudent to stabilize all sections that
have incurred damage during recent storms, so that additional projects are
not needed in the future.
The NCDOT Ferry Division is looking to stabilize a 100’ section in front of
the berm on the eastern side and a 266’ section in front of the berm on the
northern end of the Southport spoil site. Rip rap already exists along the
perimeter of much of the spoil site but these sections being referenced
have never been stabilized and significant erosion has occurred as a result
of recent storm events. Class 2 rip rap would extend 100’ to the southwest
from the current rip rap on the eastern side. On the northern end, Class 2
rip rap would extend 189’ to the northwest before making a hard turn due
west, towards the interior, and extending an additional 77’. The rip rap
would be placed on filter fabric, with the toe following the points established
on the drawing and confirmed during the pre-construction meeting. The
width of the new rip rap would be 20’ and the overall length of both new
and existing rip rap would be 803’. At no point will the rip rap extend further
than 10’ waterward from the NHW line. The proposed open water impacts
would prevent additional material loss from the spoil site and allow it to stay
intact in its current form. Following placement of the rip rap, the section of
the berm that has experienced significant erosion would be brought back to
its pre-storm profile to match the rest of the spoil site by backfilling with
material located on site.
