Subject: CAMA Major Permit Modification — Submittal
2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project
Town of Oak Island, Brunswick County
Dear Ms. Coats,
On behalf of the Town of Oak Island, please find enclosed a CAMA Major Permit modification for permit
#31-20 for the above referenced project. The permit package includes information in support of authorizing
the excavation of 1.667 mcy of beach -quality sediment for the purpose of providing protection to the
oceanfront infrastructure and resources of Oak Island.
This CAMA Major permit modification includes the addition of: 1) deeper dredging depths in Jay Bird
Shoals -with supplemental modeling; 2) an additional borrow area identified as Central Reach; 3) a new
placement area; and 4) an adjusted dune slope to accommodate USFWS concerns.
After conducting the scoping meeting and follow up conversations, the following information is also being
provided: 1) certified mail tracking numbers, 2) results and discussion of additional Munsell color testing for
Central Reach, 3) supplemental profiles to document the historic location of the dune, 4) recreational beach
widths before project (2016) and anticipated after project equilibration, 5) location of native samples with
respect to historical nourishment project, 6) an updated plan set with 2020 Post Isaias aerial, 2016 vegetation
line, and monitoring baseline, and 7) adjustments to shift the template alignment landward on the west end
(within the IHA) and east end (Stations 210-230).
Please note, the application fee of $475 was already provided under a separate cover from the Town of Oak
Island.
As the authorized agent for the Town of Oak Island, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions
or need additional information.

2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project November 2020
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
The Town of Oak Island (Town) is located along the Atlantic Ocean, in Brunswick County, NC
between the Cape Fear River Inlet and Lockwoods Folly Inlet. The Town can be accessed by
driving south from Wilmington on U.S. Highway 17 past the towns of Belville and Bolivia, then
following SR 1500 south across the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) to the barrier island
(Figure 1-1 cover sheet of permit drawings provided in Appendix A).
The history of renourishment projects on Oak Island dates back to 2001 with the introduction of
the Wilmington Harbor Sand Management Plan (WHSMP). WHSMP refers to the deepening
project administered by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the periodic
maintenance of the harbor entrance, within the Cape Fear River Inlet. The initial project by the
USACE deepened the Wilmington Harbor in 2001 and placed material along the eastern and
western portions of the Oak Island shoreline. Following the initial project, Oak Island has received
beneficial placement of material from the WHSMP in 2009 and 2018. In 2001, the USACE also
conducted a sea turtle habitat restoration project across the central portion of the island. The
material for this restoration project came from Yellow Banks, an upland borrow area. This project
unintentionally placed rocks on the beach still present today despite removal efforts by the Town.
In 2009, the USACE dredged the Lockwoods Folly River Crossing and placed material on the
western end of Oak Island's shoreline. In 2015, the Town sponsored the Lockwoods Folly Habitat
Restoration Project, which consisted of maintenance dredging of the navigation channel within
Eastern Channel with beneficial placement of compatible material on the western end of Oak
Island. After Hurricane Matthew (October 2016), the Town initiated and completed an
emergency dune restoration project to place material from an upland borrow source along 4.4
miles of shoreline. In 2019, material from the AIWW at Lockwoods Folly Inlet was beneficially
placed on the western end of Oak Island's shoreline by the USACE. The eastern and western ends
of Oak Island's shoreline experience periodic renourishment as sand is readily available from the
inlets on either end of the island with established programs by the USACE. The central portion of
the island has not experienced a significant renourishment event since 2001. The Town received
federal and state permits (SAW-2018-02230, NC Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major
Permit #31-20) for a renourishment project in winter 2020/2021 to place up to approximately
1.1 million cubic yards (mcy) along 21,000 ft of oceanfront shoreline between 10th PI. W to SE
63rd St. (Stations 300+00 to 500+00). All past USACE and Town renourishment project placement
volumes and extents discussed above are shown in Figure 1-2.

1.2 Purpose and Need
The Town is vulnerable to significant damage from storms since the overall beach profile has
been lowered substantially, as evidenced by the landfall of Hurricane Isaias on August 3, 2020.
Essentially, there is no protective dune throughout most of the oceanfront. The Town was
recently authorized to complete an emergency sand push in September 2020 (CAMA Major
Permit #140-10) to provide immediate protection to the oceanfront. Shoreline and dune erosion
as a result of storm surge and overwash during Hurricanes Matthew (2016), Florence (2018), and
now Isaias (2020) were particularly significant along the proposed project area. In 2017/2018, as
a result of Hurricane Matthew, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provided
funding for construction of a temporary protection measure in the form of an 'emergency berm'
which placed approximately 25,000 cubic yards (cy) of material in the proposed project area to
provide immediate protection to significantly damaged sections of dune until a full project could
be completed. With the passing of Florence and Michael in 2018, Dorian in 2019, and Isaias in
2020, this emergency material has served its purpose to provide immediate protection. The Town
is taking proactive measures to restore the oceanfront shoreline and dune while providing
necessary protection. The purpose of the proposed project is to provide long-term protection to
infrastructure from a 25-year return period storm event and provide additional protection at a
known 'hotspot' located on the West End of the island. This'hotspot' coincides with the area the
USACE nourished with material from the Lockwoods Folly Inlet/AIWW crossing in 2019.
For the Town to maintain adequate cash flow, the renourishment of the entire oceanfront is
being completed in separate projects. This proposed 2021/2022 Renourishment Project is the
second planned over the next 3-5 years (2020 and beyond). The first project, the 2020/2021
renourishment project, was authorized under CAMA Major Permit #31-20, this second
2021/2022 Renourishment Project is to be covered under a major modification to that permit.
The Town has been actively coordinating with both FEMA and the NC Department of
Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) to secure funding to mitigate for the extensive erosion
experienced from these hurricanes. The project planned for the winter of 2021/2022 will be
constructed using Post -Florence federal and state funding, as well as local funding. The project
which is currently planned for winter 2022/2023 (or later depending on Town cash flow) will be
considered the initial project for the Town's Master Beach Renourishment Plan. The focus for the
initial Master Plan project will be replacing any dune volume lost in the interim, as well as
providing advance fill for additional storm protection in the form of a recreational berm in front
of the dune across the island. In addition, the advance fill will serve as the buffer to maintain the
profile needed for the 25-year return period storm event protection over an expected 6-yr
renourishment interval.

Moffatt & Nichol
November 2020
The proposed 2021/2022 project features a dune designed to withstand a 25-year return period
storm event as well as a sloped berm at a 20H:1V. In addition to the dune, some areas of the
beach have a template that incorporates a berm at elevation 7.0 ft North American Vertical
Datum 1988 (NAVD88) with a width that ranges from 15 — 55 ft. Due to increased erosion
experienced at the West End 'hotspot', a 120 ft wide berm has been added to the dune template
in this area to help mitigate the increased erosion. In areas where the existing dune already meets
protection for a 25-year return period storm event, the template consists of only a berm width
of 70 ft to meet the minimum construction fill requirements of 15 cubic yards of material per
linear foot of shoreline (cy/ft). The template design varies across the oceanfront due to offshore
bathymetry tie ins, existing dune conditions, and minimum fill requirements based on
construction feasibility and equipment. However, all template designs provide the 25-year return
period storm event protection.
The proposed 2021/2022 project involves dredging approximately 1.667 mcy of beach -quality
sand from a combination of Jay Bird Shoals and Central Reach borrow areas.
The need for the proposed 2021/2022 Renourishment Project is to protect and preserve a large
portion of the Town's infrastructure, tourism industry, tax base, and enhance recreational beach
access for the public.
During the proposed 2021/2022 Renourishment Project, the Town has several objectives. Those
objectives are summarized as follows:
• Provide protection to ocean susceptible infrastructure and property while maintaining tax
revenues to the Town, County, and State.
• Preservation of the environmental, cultural, and aquatic resources of the Town and
County.
2.0 DECRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED ACTION
2.1 Project Description
Borrow Areas
The proposed 2021/2022 project consists of excavating approximately 1.667 mcy (includes
assumed 30% dredge losses) of beach -quality sediment from a combination of Jay Bird Shoals
and Central Reach borrow areas. Given the borrow area cut elevations in Jay Bird Shoals there is
sufficient beach compatible material available to allow for all the 1.667 mcy to be taken from this
borrow area, if necessary. However, up to 615,000 cy of beach compatible material is available
to be excavated from the Central Reach borrow area. The use of two borrow areas will provide

the contractor with flexibility in constructing the project in a cost-effective manner, due to the
distance of the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area from the west end of Oak Island.
The Jay Bird Shoals borrow area is situated a distance of approximately one mile offshore of the
Oak Island/Caswell Beach shoreline (Figure 2-1). This will be the second dredging event to utilize
material from this Jay Bird Shoals borrow area, the first dredging event being the permitted
2020/2021 Renourishment Project. Other portions of Jay Bird Shoals have been included in
previous renourishment events for the Village of Bald Head Island (Figure 2-2). The closest sail
distance from the borrow area to the placement area is about 1.8 miles and the farthest sail
distance from the borrow area to the placement area is about 10.9 miles. The proposed borrow
area within Jay Bird Shoals is approximately 304 acres, the same footprint permitted for the
2020/2021 project.
The Central Reach borrow area is situated a distance of approximately 1.9 miles offshore of the
Oak Island shoreline (Figure 2-1). Portions of the Central Reach borrow area have been included
in a previous renourishment event for the Town of Holden Beach (Figure 2-2). The closest sail
distance from the borrow area to the placement area is about 1.9 miles and the farthest sail
distance from the borrow area to the placement area is about 4 miles. This borrow area would
be utilized to provide a cost-effective sand source for portions of the western project placement
extent. The proposed borrow area is approximately 180 acres.

Using vibracore data collected in 2019 (1,000 ft spacing), three different zones and cut elevations
(with 2 ft of overdredge allowance) within the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area have been identified.
Since this is an ebb shoal environment, these three varying cut elevations are intended to
maintain the integrity of the shoal and minimize the effect on the nearshore wave environment
and adjoining Caswell Beach oceanfront shoreline. The borrow area cross sections are shown in
Figure 2-3. Wave modeling was performed to quantify potential effects along the Bald Head
Island, Fort Caswell, Caswell Beach, and Oak Island oceanfront (see Section 2.4). An area of
approximately 304 acres within the outer edge of Jay Bird Shoals (Figure 2-4) has been identified
to contain approximately 4.67 mcy of beach compatible material. The footprint of the Jay Bird
Shoals borrow area is the same as was previously permitted, but the proposed elevations in
NAVD88 for this permit modification are deeper as shown in Table 2-1.

-27.0
While the proposed template theoretically contains 4.67 mcy of beach compatible material, this
volume is significantly reduced due to several factors, such as:
• The 1.1 mcy that will be removed to complete the 2020/2021 Renourishment Project.
• The level of control/accuracy in the dredging process due to the unstable working
environment (waves).
• To avoid a permit violation, the contractor will naturally leave a buffer between the target
dredging elevation and the permitted elevation; this can be as much as 2-3 ft.
• The contractor will typically try to avoid areas that were previously dredged that do not
have enough material remaining above the permitted elevation. These areas are both
inefficient to dredge and pose a much higher risk of dredging below the permitted
elevation. Thus, some of the previously dredged areas utilized during the 2020/2021
Renourishment Project may not be used or will be deemed too risky to use by the
contractor.
• There are shallower areas within the proposed borrow area where a hopper dredge may
not be able to operate for safety reasons (i.e. draft of vessel is deeper than ocean floor).
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20

Moffatt & Nichol

If a hopper dredge is the only available and reasonable equipment to be used by a
contractor then shallower areas of the borrow area will not be used.
• The proposed project has operating requirements for a hopper dredge stating that the
dragheads must stay on the bottom for sea turtle protection. This operating constraint is
challenging to borrow areas if there is not a sufficient buffer of material below the
contractor's target dredging elevation and the permitted elevation. The contractor will
typically avoid areas that do not have a sufficient buffer.
• Marine debris has been identified in Zone 2 and 3. The contractor will most likely avoid
the debris by applying their own elected safe buffer distance for their dredging operations
to avoid removing the debris. This will reduce the volume available unless it is determined
that this debris can safely be removed by the contractor.
After accounting for the 1.1 mcy removed during the 2020/2021 Renourishment project and the
2 ft overdredge allowance volume (buffer for dredging inaccuracies, not to provide additional
volume), approximately 2.59 mcy will be available in the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area to meet the
need for the approximate 1.667 mcy dredge quantity for the 2021/2022 Renourishment Project.
Using vibracore data collected in 2019 (1,000 ft spacing), four different zones with unique cut
elevations (with 2 ft of overdredge allowance) within the Central Reach borrow area have been
identified. The borrow area cross sections are shown in Figure 2-5. The Central Reach borrow
area consists of approximately 180 acres (Figure 2-6) of which 1.18 mcy of beach compatible
material has been identified. After accounting for the 2 ft overdredge allowance volume (buffer
for dredging inaccuracies, not to provide additional volume), approximately 615,000 cy will be
available to meet the need for the approximately 1.667 mcy dredge quantity for the 2021/2022
Renourishment Project. The Central Reach borrow area is meant to provide a cost-effective
borrow area for material needed for portions of the west end of the project.
Detailed sediment characteristics and vibracore logs for the borrow areas are provided in
Appendix 131 and B2. Material placed on the beach will be consistent with the NC Coastal
Resources Commission (CRC) sediment compatibility standards. Placed material will be visually
monitored for sediment quality daily (via visual inspection) and weekly (via sediment analysis).
Weekly reports will be provided to the agencies.

Construction Templates
The renourishment placement area is approximately 26,100 ft (-5 miles) along Oak Island, refer
to Appendix A for the complete set of permit drawings. Based on the bids received for the
2020/2021 Renourishment Project, the 2021/2022 Renourishment Project will also likely include
placement over 4,300 linear feet, approximately Stations 460+00— 503+00, of the area permitted
under the 2020/2021 Renourishment Project (Figure 2-1). The material placed under either
project will not exceed the authorized volumes and permit extents. Sediment will be spread via
land -based equipment and shaped into a dune. The beach fill will involve approximately 197
acres of beach and inshore area. The main fill portions of the project will contain an average of
50 cy/ft. On average, the proposed project construction templates will move mean high water
(MHW) seaward approximately 93 feet.
There are some variations in the construction template across the island, some areas with dune
only (Stations 501+00 — 620+00), some areas with berm only (Stations 235+00 — 275+00), and
some areas with a combination of dune and berm (Stations 210+00 — 235+00 , 275+00 — 295+71,
and 620+00 — 676+36). These variations are a result of working with existing conditions to meet
the 25-year return period storm event protection. The dune crest elevation varies between 13.0
ft and 15.5 ft NAVD88 across the project; the dune crest width is consistently 10 ft. The original
design of the front and back dune slopes of 5H:1V have been a topic of discussion between
Moffatt & Nichol, NC Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM), USACE, US Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS), and NC Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC). The original dune slopes were
5H:1V to allow for public safety and access at dune walkover locations. A concern was raised
about the lack of steepness of the original design of the front dune slope as it pertains to a sea
turtle's ability to climb up the dune and nest behind, increasing the risk of the adult turtle or
hatchlings becoming trapped behind the dune. The final design of the front dune slope was
adjusted to 4H:1V to alleviate concerns for nesting sea turtles while maintaining the back dune
slope at 5H:1V for ease of human walkover (the Town does not have structural dune walkovers).
It is expected that the front slope of the dune will steepen quickly during winter wave conditions
to a 3H:1V. This slope is close to the angle of repose for loose clean sand and is close to the
steepest slope that could be feasibly constructed.
The front dune toe will transition at elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88 and then continue out with a 20H:1V
slope until it ties into the existing profile between elevation -1.0 ft and -10.0 ft NAVD88. Some
locations will have a berm at elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88 and then continue out with a 20H:1V slope
until it ties into the existing profile. The foreshore slope was chosen to best replicate the natural
slope of the beach in efforts to mitigate significant profile equilibration directly after placement;

however, mild equilibration of the profile is still expected and will be monitored as required by
the NC Statewide Programmatic Biological Opinion.
In the eastern most portion of the beach fill between Stations 210+00 — 235+00, the construction
template consists of both a dune and a berm. The dune elevation is 15.0 ft NAVD88. The berm
elevation is at 7.0 ft NAVD88 with a width of 15 ft. The berm is included in the template to help
meet a minimum beach fill of 15 cy/ft to ensure constructability for the contractor.
Between Stations 235+00 — 275+00 the construction template consists only of a berm at
elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88, the berm width is 70 ft. The berm width was determined to meet a
minimum beach fill of 15 cy/ft to ensure constructability for the contractor. In this area a dune is
not included in the construction template since the existing dunes provide enough protection for
the 25-year return period store event.
Between Stations 275+00 — 295+71 the construction template consists of both a dune and a
berm. The dune elevation is 14.5 ft NAVD88. The berm elevation is at 7.0 ft NAVD88 with a width
of 55 ft. The berm width was determined to meet a minimum beach fill of 15 cy/ft to ensure
constructability to the contractor. Station 295+71 marks the end of the project on the eastern
portion and where it will tie into the previous 2020/2021 Renourishment Project.
The western portion of the beach fill starts at Station 501+00 which is where the previous
2020/2021 Renourishment Project is permitted to end. Between Stations 501+00 — 620+00 the
construction template consists only of a dune. The dune elevation varies from 13.0 ft to 14.0 ft
NAVD88. The dune will break at elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88 and then continue out with a 20H:1V
slope until it ties into the existing profile.
On the west end of the island in the 'hotspot' area covering Stations 620+00 — 676+36 the
construction template consists of both a dune and a berm. The dune elevation varies from 13.0
ft to 15.5 ft NAVD88. The berm elevation is at 7.0 ft NAVD88 with a width of 120 ft. The berm
width in this area was determined based on the quantity of beach compatible material available
in the Central Reach borrow area as well as expected erosion rates. Station 676+36 marks the
western end of the project.
All the above described construction templates have been designed to withstand a 25-year return
period storm event. Typical construction template cross sections are shown in Figure 2-7. Filling
the construction template described above will require approximately 1.282 mcy of sand to be
placed within the project area.

The existing ground survey used to develop the 2021/2022 Renourishment Project construction
template was collected three days after Hurricane Isaias hit Oak Island. The existing ground
survey demonstrates a severely eroded beach before any recovery, natural or otherwise (i.e.
emergency dune pushing or placement of overwash sand), could take place. It is understood that
conditions of the beach will change from what is being shown on plans by the time construction
is anticipated to take place (winter 2021/2022). However, since the plans are based on this
severely eroded state (worst case scenario) it is expected some recovery will occur prior to
construction. This recovery could change what is shown on plans by shifting the landward
construction template tie in seaward (out from underneath or right in front of homes) and
possibly reduce the seaward movement of MHW or vice -versa depending on the state of the
beach at the time of construction.
In addition, some portions of the construction template on the west end (Station 647+00 —
659+50, 665+50 — 676+36) include a level landward tie in at elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88 behind the
dune, which will be vegetated. This is to prevent the creation of a trench behind the dune and
avoid potential turtle hatchling entrapment in the event a nest ends up behind the dune. By the
time the project is constructed, it is expected that some recovery will have taken place to
eliminate the need for this design feature, however it is being shown based on the Post -Isaias
survey used to design plans.
Of further note, surveys are collected on profile lines spaced approximately 1,000 ft apart,
meaning that the survey in between these 1,000 ft spaced profiles is interpolated. This
interpolation over 1,000 ft creates some inaccuracy from actual conditions. These inaccuracies
are corrected in the field before and during construction when more closely spaced surveys (100
ft) are obtained.
As described previously, the Town has been impacted by several hurricanes, including Matthew
(2016), Florence (2018), Dorian (2019), and Isaias (2020) and has been unable to complete a
large-scale renourishment project to restore beach conditions. As a result, there has been
substantial loss of recreational berm, dune, and native dune vegetation across the oceanfront.
As requested during the project scoping meeting, the construction template is overlain on the
2020 Post -Isaias aerial image (Appendix A) with the digitized 2016 vegetation line displayed for
reference. NCDCM has proposed to the CRC to designate Unvegetated Beach Areas of
Environmental Concern (AEC) for two areas of the shoreline. Both of the proposed areas, from
approximately Station 430+00 to 550+00 and Station 660+00 to 674+00, are within the limits of
the 2021/2022 Renourishment Project. With the absence of any existing vegetation it may be
desirable to move the dune alignment further landward. However, doing that also moves MHW
closer to structures and affects the vegetation line setback used for development purposes. The

location and alignment of the construction template is based on historical profiles and
construction feasibility. It is important to the Town to maintain a historic dune and vegetation
alignment which existed prior to Hurricane Matthew (2016). The design intent is to provide the
shoreline with protection from future storms and ensure that this level of protection is
continually maintained as part of the Master Plan.
Inlet Hazard Area
A portion of the Inlet Hazard Area (IHA) coincides with the western end of the project from
Station 667+65 — 675+65, which corresponds with monitoring Stations 670+00 — 678+00. As
noted in the Specific Use Standards for Ocean Hazard Areas, 15A NCAC 7H.0308(b)(5), within the
IHA "no new dunes shall be created". The final design location of the dune within the IHA
underwent several iterations, in collaboration with NCDCM, to adhere to the guidance. The
monitoring station profiles shown in Figure 2-8 through Figure 2-12 display the available
historical survey for the profiles within the IHA and how the construction template intends to
restore the previously existing dune. The 200-ft spaced stations only have historical survey dating
back to 2018. The structure locations shown are representative, as the profile applies to adjacent
areas, and may not line up exactly with their physical location.

Construction Templates Equilibration
To quantify the equilibration, or profile adjustment over the first 12 months (Willson, et al. 2017),
the construction template at four representative locations within the project area were chosen.
The SBEACH model was used to produce an output profile from the 2-yr storm which was used
as an assumption of the resulting equilibrated construction template. Oak Island has over 9 miles
of oceanfront containing 60 monitoring profiles. SBEACH modeling of the renourishment
equilibration is not feasible at every location within the project limits, which is why
representative locations were chosen. Station 220+00 was chosen to represent from 210+00
through 230+00, Station 540+00 was chosen to represent from 510+00 through 550+00, Station
570+00 was chosen to represent from 560+00 through 590+00, and Station 600+00 was chosen
to represent from 600+00 through 630+00. These stations were carefully chosen to best
represent the given reach. This analysis was only performed at the representative locations
within the project where there was a concern that the recreational beach width would be
negatively impacted during equilibration; therefore, construction templates consisting of a dune
and berm (greater than 15ft wide) combination or berm only were not analyzed. The recreational
beach width is assumed to be the horizonal distance between elevation 7.0 ft NAVD88 (berm)
and 1.8 ft NAVD88 (MHW). The recreational beach width for the Pre -Matthew profiles was
averaged over the profiles within a given reach and compared to the representative equilibrated
beach fill template. The results are shown in Table 2-3. Within each reach, the recreational beach
width after equilibration is wider than the Pre -Matthew recreational beach width; therefore, the
equilibrated construction template will not negatively impact the recreational beach width when
compared to the 2016 (Pre -Matthew) conditions when a dune was present within the project
area.

Equilibration results from SBEACH are shown in Figure 2-13 through Figure 2-16, the
preconstruction profiles shown in the figure are from the June 2019 survey. The model indicates
that material placed in the dune and sloped berm will be transported to the offshore bar. Mild
equilibration of the dune profile is also expected; however, this will act as a sand source for the
sloped berm over time.

2.2 Methods of Construction
The proposed project would involve the use of either a hopper dredge or a cutter suction
(hydraulic) dredge to excavate sand from Jay Bird Shoals borrow area and the Central Reach
borrow area.
Hopper dredges are self-propelled vessels that employ trailing suction draghead(s) to remove
sediment from the seafloor. The draghead is equipped with various types of steel cutting teeth
or blades and/or high-pressure water nozzles that dislodge thin layers (approximately one to
three feet deep) of sediment from the seafloor. A mixture of loose sediment and water is pumped
through a suction pipe into a hopper onboard the dredge. Sediment settles in the hopper and
excess water is discharged via an overflow system (i.e. scuppers). Once fully loaded, the hopper
dredge would travel from the borrow area to a nearshore pump -out station along the target
beach.
As specifically described by Hales (1995) the proposed methodology includes removing dredged
material from the hopper dredge, where the dredge moors to a nearshore pump -out station
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20
2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project
Moffatt & Nichol
November 2020
26
which is typically an anchored floating structure, buoy, or multiple buoy berths. The nearshore
pump -out station will be situated in 25-35 ft of water and an underwater pipeline will extend
from the pump -out station to shore. A hose is connected from the pump -out station to the
hopper -dredge discharge manifold. The dredge then mixes the dredged material with water to
form a slurry and pumps the slurry from its discharge manifold through the floating hose to the
anchored floating pump -out station and on through the underwater pipeline toward shore where
it would be pumped onto the recipient beach (Hales 1995). Once empty, the dredge would then
return to the borrow area and the cycle of dredging and discharging would be repeated.
Equipment refueling would occur as needed by fuel barge or at the Port of Wilmington. The
position of the nearshore pump -out station and underwater discharge pipeline would be
relocated as necessary as construction progresses along the beach.
Cutter suction dredges are stationary dredges that are moored at the borrow area by either spuds
or a series of anchors and wires. The equipment employs the use of a rotating cutterhead that
loosens the material from the sea floor. Just behind or within the cone of the cutterhead is a
suction pipe that gathers the loosened material from the sea floor in a material and water mixture
called a slurry. The cutter suction dredge (CSD) is connected to a pipeline that stretches from the
borrow area to the final placement location via a series of floating and submerged pipelines.
Generally, a CSD will have approximately 1,500 ft of floating hose/pipeline directly connected to
the stern of the dredge. This floating pipeline allow the dredge to move throughout the borrow
area to dredge/gather the material. This floating pipeline is connected to a submerged pipeline
that is laid along the sea floor from the borrow area to the recipient beach. The submerged
pipeline is connected to land -based pipelines that helps to distribute the material throughout the
beach placement area. Additional subline would be added in the borrow area should the 1,500
feet of floating line not allow the CSD to reach all permitted dredging areas.
To collect the material the CSD swings the bow of the dredge (cutterhead) back and forth within
the borrow area in an arc like pattern moving the dredge forward a few feet with each swing of
the dredge. The cutterhead is engaged/buried within the seafloor to a depth of approximately
two to eight feet (depending on the allowable cut depth) while swinging back and forth. The
material that is loosened becomes fluidized and is pulled into the suction pipe in a slurry and is
pumped directly to the recipient beach through the series of pipes described above.
A couple of primary differences between the hopper dredge and the CSD is the hopper dredge
removes the material in thin layer passes and may take multiple passes in order to reach the
desired elevation; the CSD will take all available material to the desired elevation in one pass and
generally does not cover an area twice. Also, a hopper dredge needs deeper water to operate
within the borrow area because material loads into a hopper on the vessel, for transport, which
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20
2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project
Moffatt & Nichol
November 2020
27
dramatically increases their draft during the loading cycle. Since the CSD is directly pumping the
material onshore the draft of the vessel does not change and therefore can operate in much
shallower waters.
Placement and grading activities on the beach would involve the use of bulldozers to redistribute
and grade the beach fill material to the proposed beach profile. Land -based equipment will be
brought to the site over public roads and will enter the beach at existing permanent beach
accesses. Equipment can be stored at staging areas shown on Figure 2-17. Existing vegetation on
the beach will be avoided and preserved; however, any alteration of vegetation necessary for
equipment access will be repaired to pre -project conditions following project completion. Daily
equipment staging will be on the constructed beach seaward of the dune line. Construction
contracts will provide for proper storage and disposal of oils, chemicals, and hydraulic fluids etc.
necessary for operation in accordance with state and federal regulations.
Work will progress in sections within the borrow area(s) and along the beach. Fill placement along
the beach will typically progress at a rate of 400-700 linear feet per day. Construction activities
will involve movement of heavy equipment and pipe along approximately 1 mile reaches over a
period of 1-2 weeks. Once a section is complete, piping and heavy equipment will be shifted to a
new section and the process repeated. As soon as practicable, sections will be graded and
dressed to final slopes. Other than at temporary equipment staging areas, residents and visitors
along the project area will not experience significant disruption to recreational activities except
within the immediate construction area. The majority of existing public access to the beach will
remain open at all times during construction, except for a few that may be used for staging/access
areas, again see Figure 2-17. Offshore pump -out stations and appurtenances would not affect
commercial or recreational boating.
Based on other project experiences, one hopper dredge can excavate and place on the order of
10,000—15,000 cy in a 24-hour period. Dredging and grading would occur around the clock, thus
requiring nighttime lighting on the beach and onboard the dredge. It is anticipated the proposed
construction will be accomplished in approximately three to four months, unless multiple
dredges are deployed on the project which would shorten the construction period. All beach fill
construction activities would take place within the 16 November through 30 April environmental
window.

2.3 Sediment Compatibility
2.3.1 Native Beach Sediment
Sediments on the native beach were sampled by Athena in 2019. This established a native grain
size distribution for purposes of compatibility analyses with borrow areas. The native sediment
distribution for Oak Island was defined based on the percent gravel, granular, sand, fine-grained,
and calcium carbonate present in samples taken from 13 locations along a defined transect as
specified in NC Administrative Code 15A NCAC 07H.0312(1). These 13 samples were than
averaged to obtain a composite average for the transect. Eleven transects were sampled along
the shoreline of Oak Island (Figure 2-18) with efforts to maintain required spacing while also
avoiding recent renourishment projects.

for the native beach. The composite average from all 11 transects will be used to classify native
material as opposed to only using the composite average for the transects that fall within the
project area. A summary of the characteristics for the native beach is provided in Table 2-4. The
table also demonstrates the acceptable grain size criteria for beach placement in accordance with
15A NCAC 07H.0312(3), which establishes consistent standards for native grain size for all future
projects. The native material is characterized as fine-grained sand under the American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Unified Soil Classification System with a mean grain size of 0.26
millimeter (mm). The native beach is coarse skewed and moderately sorted, as indicated by the
native beach sediment statistics presented in Table 2-5.

Moffatt & Nichol conducted field investigations on October 28, 2019 to estimate the total
number of shell and rock material greater than or equal to three inches in diameter, observable
on the surface of the beach between mean low water and the frontal dune toe, in a 50,000 square
foot area based on requirements in 15A NCAC 07H.0312(4)(c). The investigation was performed
in the area shown in Figure 2-19 between Stations 460+00 and 470+00. This area had received

nourishment in the spring of 2018. Results of the investigation found 58 pieces of shell material
greater than or equal to three inches in diameter.

2.3.2 Proposed Borrow Area Sediment
JAY BIRD SHOALS BORROW AREA
Vibracores in the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area were obtained by American Vibracore Services
(AVS) in February and March of 2019. Figure 2-20 gives the location of vibracores and the
bathymetry of the proposed borrow area within Jay Bird Shoals. Using a multibeam bathymetric
survey collected by Geodynamics in 2019 (see Appendix C), volume calculations indicate
approximately 3.69 mcy of material exists in the three (3) zones within the Jay Bird Shoals borrow
area when excluding the 2 ft of overdredge allowance material. It is assumed that the first project
in 2020/2021 will remove approximately 1.1 mcy from the borrow area, which would leave 2.59
mcy in the borrow area for the project in 2021/2022. The 2021/2022 Renourishment Project has
an expected total dredge volume of 1.667 mcy. Therefore, the material within the Jay Bird Shoals
borrow area will be enough to fully cover the dredge volume for the 2021/2022 project if the
contractor chooses.
The borrow area was divided into three (3) zones as beach compatible material exists down to
varying elevations across the shoal. The dredge elevation within these zones was decreased
moving onshore over the shoal to replicate the natural contours of the shoal system, see Table
2-6. The average cut depth, not including overdredge, across Zone 1 is 5.8 ft, Zone 2 is 9.8 ft, and
Zone 3 is 6.9 ft. Since this is a shoal environment, these cut depths are intended to maintain the
integrity of the shoal by not allowing waves to break closerto shore and cause unintended effects
on the adjacent shoreline. A comprehensive modeling report for the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area
is provided in Appendix D and a summary of the modeling is discussed in Section 2.4.

Sediment characteristics and statistics are presented in Table 2-7 and Table 2-8. As noted, the
sediment characteristics and statistics presented consider a composite average down to the
design elevation for each zone.
Appendix B1 provides a summary of sediment descriptions including mean grain size, percent
gravel, percent granular, percent fines (<#230), percent carbonate, and Munsell color. The
composite averages shown in Appendix B1 will be different than the composite averages shown
in Table 2-7 and Table 2-8. Appendix B1 shows the composite average for the entire vibracore
sample, while Table 2-7 and Table 2-8 show the composite average for the vibracore down to
the design elevation (with overdredge) for each zone. The borrow area vibracores meet all the
grain size criteria for beach placement as established in 15A NCAC 07H.0312 (Table 2-9). The
typical sediment type in Jay Bird Shoals is medium -grained sand (mean size = 0.34 mm) that is
coarse skewed and poorly sorted. This preliminary comparison shows the proposed borrow area
sediments to be similar to the native material (Table 2-10).

Although no documented State or Federal criteria for sediment color exist, the USFWS has
recommended that to minimize effects on sea turtles the wet Munsell color of sediment samples
must be at least a 5. The Jay Bird Shoals vibracore Munsell colors vary from gray (10YR-5/1, 10YR-
6/1) to light gray (10YR-7/1), some grayish brown (10YR-5/2) to light grayish brown (10YR-6/2).
In Appendix 131 there are two colors noted for the vibracore samples. One color was recorded
while the sample was still wet by AVS staff (March 2019). The other color was recorded by
Moffatt & Nichol staff after the sample had been exposed to the sun and allowed to dry for a
month (August 2019).

Comments received by USFWS, dated November 21, 2019, to the USACE on the use of Jay Bird
Shoals for the 2020/2021 project noted some concerns on color as detailed in the following
quote. "The wet Munsell color of some of the core samples are quite dark (values of 3 or 4). Wet
Munsell color of the borrow material should be similar to the native beach material, and should
typically have a value greater than 5 (regardless of the hue or chroma). It may be that as material
is mixed during sand placement, the color value of the material will be sufficiently light,
...However, it will be important for the applicant to ensure that the material is suitable prior to
placement on the beach." No additional color testing of the Jay Bird Shoals vibracores was
requested by the agencies.

CENTRAL REACH BORROW AREA
Vibracores in the Central Reach borrow area were obtained by AVS in February and March of
2019. In total, 81 vibracores were analyzed with respect to the NC Technical Standards for
sediment parameters. These vibracores were grouped based on compatibility and combined into
zones. Figure 2-21 gives the location of vibracores and the bathymetry of the proposed borrow
area within Central Reach.
Artificial reef (AR-430) or fish haven as denoted on the navigation chart near the Central Reach
borrow area is approximately 85 ft outside of the 2,000 ft buffer as shown in Figure 2-22. No
impact to AR-430 is expected from dredging operations within the Central Reach borrow area.
Using a multibeam bathymetric survey collected by Geodynamics in 2019 (see Appendix C),
volume calculations indicate approximately 615,000 cy of material exists in the four (4) zones
within the Central Reach borrow area when excluding the 2 ft of overdredge allowance material.
If the contractor chooses, they will have the authorization to excavate 615,000 cy of material
from Central Reach to help meet the need for the approximate 1.667 mcy dredge volume for the
2021/2022 Renourishment Project.
The borrow area was divided into four (4) zones as beach compatible material exists down to
varying elevations, see Table 2-11. The average cut depth, not including overdredge, across Zone
1 is 1.7 ft, Zone 2 is 3.0 ft, Zone 3 is 0.5 ft, and Zone 4 is 2.3 ft. The sediment characteristics and
statistics for the Central Reach borrow area material are presented in Table 2-12 and Table 2-13.
As noted, the sediment characteristics and statistics presented consider a composite average
down to the design elevation for each zone.

Appendix B2 provides a summary of sediment descriptions including mean grain size, percent
gravel, percent granular, percent fines (<#230), percent carbonate, and Munsell color. The
composite averages shown in Appendix B2 will be different than the composite averages shown
in Table 2-12 and Table 2-13. Appendix B2 shows the composite average for the entire vibracore
sample, while Table 2-12 and Table 2-13 show the composite average for the vibracore down to
the design elevation (with overdredge) for each zone. The borrow area vibracores meet all grain
size criteria for beach placement as established in 15A NCAC 07H.0312 (Table 2-14). The typical
sediment type in Central Reach is medium -grained sand (mean size = 0.32 mm) that is poorly
sorted. This preliminary comparison shows the proposed borrow area sediments to be similar to
the native material (Table 2-15).

Although no documented State or Federal criteria for sediment color exist, the USFWS has
recommended that to minimize effects on sea turtles the wet Munsell color of sediment samples
must be at least a 5. As mentioned previously, the vibracores were collected in February and
March of 2019, after undergoing sieve analysis, the vibracores were then transferred to the Town
in July of 2019. In Appendix B2 there are two colors noted for the vibracore samples. One color
was recorded while the sample was still wet by AVS staff (March 2019). The other color was
recorded by Moffatt & Nichol staff after the sample had been exposed to the sun and allowed to
dry for a month (August 2019). All Central Reach vibracore Munsell colors recorded were gray
(10YR-5/1, 10YR-6/1). There was one vibracore (Central-10) where dry readings for some samples

2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project November 2020
42
were not able to be obtained, due to the vibracore section being damaged in transit. However, it
is expected that these samples which recorded as a wet 10YR-3/1 would lighten since samples
one (1) and two (2), which also recorded as a wet 10YR-3/1, lightened to a 10YR-6/1 after being
left in the sun for a month. As the final dredging and overdredge elevations for the Central Reach
borrow area were being optimized, Moffatt & Nichol staff had to collect dry color readings for
some vibracore depths which were not considered previously. This explains the couple of
samples that have a March 2020 dry color recording noted in Appendix B2.
After receiving clarification from USFWS that the Munsell color recorded from the samples which
had been dried for a month did not meet the recommendation as they were not wet, M&N staff
took the dried samples and wetted them to then record the Munsell color. These results can be
found in Appendix B2. Wetting of the dried samples did not take place for every vibracore, as
many vibracores had similar Munsell color classifications. For example, vibracores in the same
dredge zone that had same color transitions, i.e. AVS recorded wet sample as 10YR-3/1 and MN
recorded dry sample as 10YR-6/1 were only tested on one vibracore in the zone that exhibited
this behavior. The result from the sample tested was assumed to be applied to the other
vibracore in the dredge zone with the same color classifications. Some samples once wetted, do
not meet the recommendation of at least a 5. Most of the dried samples once wetted ended up
one shade lighter, some returning back to the original wet Munsell color classified by AVS staff.
Some samples appeared to fall between two Munsell color classifications i.e. between 10YR-3/1
and 10YR-4/1. Figure 2-23 below shows a comparison of a wet and dry sample taken from the
first 6 inches of vibracore Central-08. In this figure the right sample is dry, and the color was
recorded as a 10YR-6/1; the left sample is wet, and the color was recorded as a 10YR-5/1.

Two studies by the USACE have been performed to investigate sediment color changes over time
in regard to beach nourishment efforts. One study from 2013, titled "Dauphin Island Pilot Study:
Color Change of Black Warrior -Tombigbee Waterway (BWT) Sand Placed Along the Shoreline of
Eastern Dauphin Island, Alabama" found that "over the course of a year color change for river
sand placement went from a wet Munsell color predominately light yellowish brown to a light
gray and a dry Munsell color of predominately pale brown to white." This equates to an average
Munsell value increase of 1.43 within 12 months. In this study the color changes could not be
attributed to any particular mechanism and likely resulted from a combination of mixing with
native sand, sediment transport, photochemical bleaching, oxidation, and/or alteration of iron
oxide or other sediment coatings.
The second study completed by the USACE Engineer Research and Development Center in 2018
titled 'Investigating Sediment Color Change Dynamics to Promote Beneficial Use Applications'
focuses on "evaluating factors driving sediment color change with an emphasis on chemical
processes". The study acknowledges that 'Although practitioners report substantial sediment
color change after beneficial use project placement, the sediment color changes process and
associated underlying mechanisms remain poorly documented." Further that, "Reported color
changes likely result from a combination of physical and chemical processes including abrasion,
sediment transport (e.g., winnowing of darker, fine materials), sediment mixing, removal of
sediment particle coatings, oxidation of decomposable organic matter, and photochemical
bleaching." The study found that "Removing carbonates, organic matter, and iron oxide coatings
increased the Munsell value across all sediments examined by an average of 1.0 Munsell value.
It also found that mixing dark fine silt (Munsell value <3) with another silt (Munsell value 4.2)
resulted in Munsell value increases of 1-2 units. Finally, the study concluded that bleached
sediments experienced color rate increases of 0.3-0.5 Munsell value. Sediment color concerns
remain poorly defined but "A variety of recent (Maglio et al. 2015) and ongoing research reports
the removal of dark sediments during the dredging and beneficial placement process."
It is important to note that vibracores from across the Central Reach borrow area will be dredged
and mixed together at same time, some vibracores having lighter color and some having darker
color. As a reminder, all the vibracores within the Central Reach Borrow Area meet the sediment
compatibility requirements as identified in 15A NCAC 07H.0312. Ultimately, the material placed
on the beach will be closely monitored for color (and other sediment characteristics) to ensure it
remains compatible and to the satisfaction of the agencies.

2.4 Jay Bird Shoals Borrow Area Modeling
To investigate the potential effects of dredging the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area on tidal currents,
nearshore waves, and sediment transport along the adjacent shoreline, the existing model
bathymetry was modified to reflect the proposed after -dredge conditions. Dredging elevations
were increased from the borrow area template that was permitted for the 2020/2021
Renourishment Project (Template 2). These elevation increases will provide the additional
volume necessary for the proposed 2021 /2022 Renourishment Project (Template 1). The
increased dredging elevations also provide additional flexibility and efficiencies for dredge
equipment based on the bidding and construction history from the 2020/2021 project. The
footprint of the proposed borrow area is the same as was previously permitted (304 acres), but
the proposed dredge elevations for this permit modification are deeper as shown in Table 2-16.

The maximum dredging scenario was considered for both templates, i.e. assuming to remove all
the available material identified as beach compatible, 4.67 mcy for Template 1 and 2.95 mcy for
Template 2. This assumption is conservative since, as discussed earlier, the dredge will not
remove all this material. Thus, the results from the Delft3D model are believed to be a
conservative overestimate of the potential effects on the tidal current and wave climates.
The tidal current model results indicate that for the proposed Template 1 scenario, effects on
residual tidal currents would be localized and small, similar to the previously permitted Template
2 scenario. This implies there would be no significant effects on sediment transport processes
associated with tidal currents due to implementing the changes in elevations for Template 1.
Figure 2-24 shows the effects of the proposed template (Template 1) and previously permitted
template (Template 2) on residual tidal currents over a spring -neap tidal cycle.

Figure 2-24. After -dredge bathymetry effects on residual tidal currents over a spring neap tidal cycle
The wave transformation model results for the 2004 — 2018 average annual offshore wave
climates show that both after -dredge bathymetry templates within Jay Bird Shoals could result
in a slight redistribution of wave energy along the Caswell Beach shoreline during moderate to
severe storm events.
Thus, sediment transport analyses were also completed, to observe if the changes to wave
heights and wave directions would affect longshore transport. The sediment transport results for
both after -dredge bathymetry templates show that the wave -induced longshore sediment
transports could be reduced leeward of the borrow area but could potentially increase on
shoreline segments both east and west sides of the borrow area. The net effect of these changes
could result in localized adjustments in shoreline erosion/accretion. Potential effects on
shoreline erosion in other areas are minimal, although some areas may experience increased
shoreline accretion. Based on the model results of the longshore sediment transport gradients
as presented in Figure 2-25, most of the potential increases in shoreline erosion would be limited
to discrete portions of Caswell Beach (between survey transects 37+00 — 60+00 and 150+00 —
185+00). Generally, both templates show results close to existing conditions, with some areas
showing transport rates above and below existing conditions.

Considering the results, there is no strong evidence that the proposed Template 1 would cause
significant impacts in comparison with previously permitted Template 2, especially given that this
is not a morphological model. The sediment transport inside the surf zone is greatly influenced
by the imposed model bathymetry. Thus, the results only represent the bathymetric condition
constructed based on the available data sources. Therefore, Template 1 is proposed to complete
the 2021/2022 Renourishment Project. Given the dredging process inefficiencies previously
discussed, Template 1 will allow for efficient and effective use of additional beach compatible
sediment.
2.5 Survey Data Collection
15A NCAC 07H.0312(2) specifies 100 percent multibeam and sidescan sonar coverage of the
borrow area and geophysical imaging of the seafloor on survey grids with line spacing not to
exceed 1,000 feet. Geodynamics completed a survey of the Central Reach borrow area in June
2019. Data collected included magnetometer, sidescan sonar, sub -bottom, and multibeam,
survey data collection methods and other information are detailed in Appendix C.

As a note all survey data for the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area was provided in the 2020/2021
Renourishment Project application and is also available in Appendix C.
The results of the magnetometer data were reviewed by Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. to
determine the presence and proper avoidance of any cultural resources. This is discussed further
in Chapter 3.0 Cultural Resources.
The sidescan sonar mosaic data in Figure 2-26 illustrates the relative differences in bottom type
throughout the Central Reach borrow area. There are observed distinct sand ridges with a rather
homogenous bottom type. The sub -bottom data was collected on grid line spacing of 1,000 ft,
see Figure 2-27 below. Figure 2-28 shows a 3D diagram illustrating the sediment horizons from
the collected sub -bottom data. The dark orange line represents the extents of the 'shallow'
reflector and the lime green line represents the 'base' reflector or deepest, continuous reflector.
The multibeam data collected, shown in Figure 2-29 below, was used to determine the total
dredge volume for the borrow area.

3.0 CULTURAL RESOURCES
The NC State Historic Preservation Office was consulted prior to offshore geotechnical
investigations to ensure vibracores collected would not interfere with any known cultural
resources. Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. conducted an evaluation of all 167 anomalies
resulting from the 2019 magnetometer and sonar survey (Appendix Q. Results identified all
anomalies were generated by modern debris such as tires, chain/cable, and small objects such as
traps; of which 27 of the 167 anomalies fall within the 180-acre proposed Central Reach borrow
area. No buffers were recommended for the anomalies identified.
As a note the cultural resources investigation for the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area was provided
in the 2020/2021 Renourishment Project application.

4.0 PROPOSED CONSERVATION MEASURES
The following conservation measures will be implemented by the Town and contractor to avoid
or minimize potential impacts on the affected environment and federally managed species and
critical habitat that may occur within the dredging and pipeline footprint, beach placement, and
staging areas. In addition to those listed below, the Town is committed to Reasonable Prudent
Measures and Terms and Conditions listed under sand placement from beach nourishment
activities in the USFWS Statewide Programmatic Biological Opinion for Sand Placement Projects
(USFWS 2017).
Construction Schedule
• All sand placement, dredging, and associated construction activities would adhere to a 16
November to 30 April environmental window. Adherence to the environmental window
would minimize potential impacts by avoiding the following periods of critical biological
activity:
o Sand placement and dredging operations would avoid most of the peak
recruitment period [March -September (Hackney et al. 1996)] for surf zone fishes
in NC.
o Dredging operations near the Cape Fear River inlet would avoid peak larval ingress
periods [May -June (Hettler and Chester 1990)] for estuarine -dependent fishes and
invertebrates, thereby reducing rates of larval entrainment during dredging
operations.
o Sand placement operations would avoid peak spring benthic invertebrate
recruitment periods in NC [May through September (Hackney et al. 1996, Diaz
1980, Reilly and Bellis 1978)]; thereby reducing the duration of direct impacts on
intertidal beach benthic infaunal communities that constitute the prey -base for
demersal surf zone fishes.
o Borrow area dredging operations would avoid peak spring benthic invertebrate
recruitment periods in NC [May through September (Hackney et al. 1996, Diaz
1980, Reilly and Bellis 1978)]; thereby reducing the duration of direct impacts on
subtidal soft bottom benthic invertebrate communities that constitute the prey -
base for nearshore demersal fishes.
Construction Methods
• Good Engineering Practices and Best Management Practices would be applied to all sand
placement and dredging activities.
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20
2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project
Moffatt & Nichol
November 2020
51
Sand Placement
• Pipelines will be equipped with spreaders to reduce effluent discharge velocities during
sand -slurry placement. As appropriate, temporary longitudinal sand dikes would be used
to contain and direct the horizontal flow of the discharged sand -slurry along the beach.
These measures would maximize sediment retention within the designated placement
area, thereby minimizing potential surf zone turbidity effects.
• Sand delivery pipelines will be routinely inspected for pressurized leaks and any leaks that
are found would be immediately repaired.
• All sediment and erosion control measures shall be equal to or exceed the requirements
of the NC Sediment and Erosion Control Manual.
• Construction equipment and activities will not be near the bare sand area adjacent to the
inlet where many protected avian species forage and nest. The Town conducted three
years of shorebird monitoring to analyze habitat use within the inlet complex (See
Shorebird Monitoring Report in Appendix F).
Dredging
• A hydrographic survey covering the entire area where the dredge is expected to operate
will be conducted before and after the dredging event.
• The contractor will be required to comply with requirements stated in the 2020 South
Atlantic Regional Biological Opinion (SARBO 2020).
• Operation and Dredging Endangered Species System (ODESS) — the dredge should be
equipped with a tablet running ODESS software to track and document the presence of
sea turtle, sturgeon, and marine mammal species during dredge operations. The system
must be connected to the internet and be a stand-alone system, as well as have the USACE
ODESS data collection and reporting software (ODESS Field Collector Tool).
• Dredging contractors will be required to maintain spill control plans and waste
management plans for all dredging fleet equipment.
Sediment Compatibility
• All material placed on the beach and in associated dune systems would consist of beach
compatible sand that meets NC Technical Standards for Beach Fill Projects (15A NCAC
07H.0312). Monitoring of fill material at the pipeline outfall will be conducted daily by the
contractor throughout sand placement operations. If dredging operations encounter non -
compatible material, the contractor will cease operations and immediately contact the
USACE Wilmington District Regulatory Branch and NCDCM to determine the appropriate
course of corrective action. The use of only sand that is compatible with the native beach
would reduce the extent and duration of direct impacts on intertidal beach benthic
infaunal communities and sea turtle nesting.
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20
2021/2022 Oak Island Renourishment Project
Moffatt & Nichol
November 2020
52
• Should dredging operations encounter incompatible sand, the dredge operator will cease
operations immediately and contact NCDCM.
Post -Construction Monitoring
• The NCDCM and USACE hosted a meeting in January 2020 to discuss the 2020/2021
Renourishment Project with neighboring stakeholders (Caswell Beach and the Village of
Bald Head Island) in which a monitoring plan was discussed associated with use of the Jay
Bird Shoals borrow area. As agreed by all parties, the Town will monitor the Caswell Beach
shoreline annually for three (3) years post -construction to investigate any potential
shoreline change effects. Further details on the post -construction monitoring procedure
can be found in Appendix G. Figure 4-1 below shows the extents of the proposed
monitoring. For comparison, it also shows the extents of Bald Head Island's current
monitoring efforts on Caswell Beach.
• The Town will monitor the permitted dredged area, and sediment accumulation (infill)
rates within Jay Bird Shoals, including all areas located 500 feet outside of the dredged
area, for a period of three years after dredging. The first survey should be completed
within 30 days upon completion of dredging.
Reporting
• The Town will notify the state and federal resource agencies in the event the contractor
is able to remove the marine debris intact. Any marine debris encountered during
dredging operations will be disposed of in an appropriate location. If any submerged
cultural resources are encountered during dredge operations, the contractor will cease
dredging immediately.
• All shoreline monitoring reports will be submitted to the State and Federal resource
agencies by December 31 of each year.
Threatened and Endangered Species
• Based on recommendations by USFWS and NCWRC, the dune slope design was adjusted
to 4H:1V on the oceanfront side to avoid sea turtles and hatchlings becoming entrapped
on the backside of the dune.
• West Indian Manatee Protection — the contractor will implement the USFWS's Manatee
Guidelines found at http://saw-reg.usace.army.mil/ESA/manatee guidelines.pdf.
• Sea Turtle Incidental Data Form - If a sea turtle or its remains are found during dredging,
a Sea Turtle Incidental Data Form will be completed and submitted to the ODESS database
as soon as possible (not to exceed 6 hours after the incident).
NCDCM Major Permit Modification #31-20

53
• Sturgeon Incidental Data Form - If a sturgeon or its remains are found during dredging, a
Sturgeon Incidental Data Form must be completed and submitted to the ODESS database
as soon as possible (not to exceed 6 hours after the incident).
• During dredging, observers approved by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration — Fisheries for sea turtles, sturgeon, and whale will be aboard to monitor
for presence of the species.
• To protect NC Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Artificial Reef 425, a 2,000 ft radius will
be maintained in all directions from a center point location of 33°53.048' N,-78006.525'
W.
• To protect NC DMF Artificial Reef 430, a 2,000 ft radius will be maintained in all directions
from a center point location of 33°52.1898' N,-78°10.0002' W.

Dear Mr. Martin:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application, acting as agent for the
Town of Oak Island, for State approval to expand the Town of Oak Island's beach nourishment project, with
the expanded location extending from McGlamery St to SE 63rd St. and between 7th/1 Oth PL W to the West
End Beach Access, in Oak Island, Brunswick County, and adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. It was received as
complete on 11/25/20 and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline for
making a decision is 2/8/21. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time is
necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated
above, you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as
your notice of an extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from 11/25/20 you may request a meeting with
the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of your project. Such
a meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request and shall include the
applicant and project designer/consultant.
NCGS I I3A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed
development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property
of your proposed development. You should post copies of this notice at a conspicuous point along the project
area where it can be observed by the public. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete
application.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the
appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if
you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
Sincerely,
Heather

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Town of Oak Island is located on a south facing barrier island in Brunswick County between
Lockwoods Folly Inlet and the Town of Holden Beach to the west, and the Town of Caswell Beach and
the Cape Fear River to the east. The Town of Caswell Beach is also located on the island. The Town of
Oak Island is approximately 9 miles in length. It is also bordered by the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIWW) to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The island is accessed via 2 bridges. The
western bridge leads into the Town of Oak Island located off NC Highway 211 via Middleton Blvd. The
eastern bridge leads onto the island between Oak Island and Caswell Beach and is accessed from NC
Highway 133.
This is a proposed modification to the Town's State CAMA/Dredge & Fill Permit No. 31-20 which was
issued in early 2020 (USACE AID# SAW-2018-02230 and DWR Project 92018-1344). A minor
modification was issued shortly thereafter to potentially authorize the removal of a buffer in the borrow
area, should a reported magnetic anomaly be identified as marine debris and removed from the borrow
site. The proposed project would extend the previously permitted project to include the entire oceanfront
shoreline of the Town of Oak Island. The long-term erosion rate for the proposed project area ranges from
0'-2.6'/year. The Division's calculated 100-year storm recession line for the island was predicted to be
180'. Oak Island has experienced significant beach erosion within the last several years as a result of the
numerous recent tropical storms and hurricanes that have affected our coast.
In the original application, the permittee identified a --304 acre borrow site off Jay Bird Shoals to supply
sand for the project. Water depths at the site varied from approximately -20 to -28' NAVD88. Sediments
collected via Vibracore samples within the borrow site showed a Unified Soils Classification System
(USCS) designation of predominantly SP-SM or SW. Gravel sized material (>4.76mm) ranged from 0-
7% with a maximum composite weight of 4.25%. Fines (<0.0625 mm) in individual samples ranged from
1.29% to 9.87% with a maximum composite weight of 6.79% overall. A low -intensity, long -duration
linear feature was originally identified within the borrow site by a remote sensing survey and a minimum
50' buffer area on each side of the anomaly is proposed (see Appendix D- Archeological Remote Sensing
for more information). A follow-up Phase II Remote -Sensing Archeological Survey was later submitted
for inclusion in the application package and a request to remove the buffer was later submitted as a minor
modification request as the anomaly is believed to be modern debris. Dredge depths were divided into
three zones: Zone 1 with an excavation depth of -26' NAVD88, Zone 2 with an excavation depth of -31'
NAVD88, and Zone 3's permitted dredge depth was -27' NAVD88.
The previously permitted placement area extended from 10t1i Place West to SE 63`d Street (-21,000 feet).
The beach fill template included berm fill to an elevation of+7' NAVD 88 with a 20: 1 slope out to tie
into existing grade from - I' to -10' NAVD88 and a dune at an elevation ranging from 13.5' to 14.5'
NAVD88, constructed with a 6' wide dune crest, and at a 5:1 slope. Excavation was calculated at 1.1
million cubic yards with an anticipated final net fill volume of approximately 846,000 cubic yards due to
expected dredge losses.
The native beach was characterized using data collected by Athena. Fines were calculated at 1.88%, with
sand comprising 98.96%, and granular and gravel material each at less than 1%. Mean grain size was
calculated at 0.27mm. Calcium carbonate was reported at 9.72%. The count of shell and

rock material greater than 3" in size was determined to number 58 within a 50,000 square foot area, as
previously determined during the original permit application.
Since the original beach nourishment project was permitted, Hurricane Isaias resulted in significant
erosion of the beach. In response, the Town's major permit for beach bulldozing was modified to allow
them to bulldoze the damaged dune system. This work has been completed. The Town is also repairing
dunes by replacing storm -overwashed sand lost from the beach and dune system via truck haul. This latter
work is exempt from CAMA permitting requirements as it is defined in the Coastal Resources
Commission (CRC) roles as maintenance and repair. This work is being conducted at the present time.
The waters in the project area fall within the Lumber and Cape Fear River Basins, as classified by the NC
Division of Water Resources (DWR). The waters of the Atlantic Ocean are classified as SB by the DWR.
The NC Division of Marine Fisheries has NOT designated any of the areas to be impacted as a Primary
Nursery Area, and there are no foreseen impacts to shellfish resources at this time.
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant is proposing to expand the limits of the previously permitted beach nourishment and dune
building project for the Town of Oak Island. The project site extends the distance of the previously
permitted project approximately 26,100 additional linear feet in total, with 2 reaches extending from
McGlamery St to SE 63rd St, and a second reach starting between 7" & 1 Oth PL W and extending to the
West End Beach Access. The beach berm would be filled to an elevation of+7' NAVD 88 with a 20: 1
slope out to tie into existing grade from -1' to -9' NAVD88 (MLW= -2.9' NAVD88). An engineered
"starter dune" is also proposed along the majority of the expanded area with a maximum elevation
ranging from +13.0' to +15.5' NAVD88, to be constructed with a 10' wide dune crest, and with a 4:1
slope on the waterward side and a 5:1 slope on the landward side. This design appears to advance the
proposed engineered dune to (or in one area waterward of) the current MHW line along part of the project
area. Anticipated fill volumes for the project would place a minimum of 15 with an average of 50 cubic
yards per linear foot. As proposed, a gross excavated volume of up to 1.667 million Cubic yards of sand
has been calculated to account for an estimated placement loss of up to 30%. A total fill volume of
approximately 1,282,000 cubic yards is anticipated to be placed on the beach, given current conditions. It
is currently estimated that 5,852,607 square feet would be filled below MHW (535,834 cubic yards). Of
that material, approximately 2,150,482 square feet (191,049 cubic yards) would also be located below
MEW. Approximately 2,740,996 square feet (746,166 cubic yards) of beach fill material would be placed
above the MHW line. The applicant also estimates approximately 93' of fill would be placed water -ward
of the current MHW line on average, within a maximum projected distance of 279' of fill placed below
MHW. A table provided by the applicant in the narrative (Table 2-3) shows the average pre -Matthew
beach width ranging from 57'-69', and the average anticipated post -construction equilibrated beach width
ranging from 73'-96'. However, it should be noted that the estimates provided are based on a single
"representative profile" for each area (4 profiles in total for the project area) and estimated equilibration
was simulated using SBEACH and a 2-year return period storm. While the applicant asserts the estimated
equilibrated recreational beach width (the distance between +7' NAVD88 to MHW) will increase the
beach width that existed prior to Hurricane Matthew, there appears to be potential for post -equilibration
narrowing of the beach width should Oak Island experience more than a 2-year storm.. The applicant has
also stated this project is the second phase of the Town's overall plan, and the Town still intends to apply
for a more comprehensive beach restoration project in the near future, but there is no apparent

guarantee of future projects at this time; as stated in the narrative, future projects are dependent on
funding. The application states the purpose of the project, which is designed to withstand a 25-year return
period storm event, is to protect infrastructure and property while maintaining tax revenues to the Town,
County and State, as well as to preserve the environmental, cultural, and aquatic resources of the Town
and County. Planting of dune vegetation is also proposed on the crest and backslope of the proposed
started dune. This would likely facilitate the establishment of stable, natural vegetation. And while the
applicant states the importance of maintaining the pre -Matthew dune and location of stable, natural
vegetation to protect construction setbacks, the project design shifts the starter dune waterward of the
frontal dune's pre -Matthew location, as shown in the profile drawings included in Appendix J-
Supplemental Profiles and Figures 2-8 and 2-9 of the narrative (Project Stations 667+65 & 669+65).
The applicant states the entire volume of material will still be available in the previously permitted Jay
Bird Shoals site, as proposed, although they are also requesting to allow dredging from a second borrow
area at Central Reach, The Jay Bird Shoals site has been divided into three zones: Zone 1 would be
excavated to a depth of -26' NAVD88, with a proposed 2' dredge overdepth allowance proposed for the
entire borrow area. Therefore, maximum proposed dredge depth for Zone 1 would be -28' NAVD88.
Zone 2 would be excavated to a design depth of -35' (+2') NAVD88 and Zone 3's proposed dredge depth
is -27' (+2') NAVD88. This is a change from the originally permitted dredge depths to account for
overdredge allowance not included in the original application for Zones 1 and 3 and dredge additional
depth in Zone 2. The sediment analysis has been updated for the site to account for the additional dredge
depth. The mean grain size for the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area, as reported based on a revised composite
of applicable vibracore samples within the newly proposed dredged depths, is 0.27mm. Gravel is reported
at 1.27%, granular material at 3.57%, fines at 4.61%, and calcium carbonate is now reported at 13.98%.
The applicant estimates the volume of material available in the Jay Bird Shoals site, after accounting for
material dredged during the upcoming 2020/21 project and the dredge buffers, is approximately 2.59
million cubic yards.
Updated wave & sediment transport modeling has also been reported for the modified template due to
concerns previously expressed by the Village of Bald Head Island and Town of Caswell Beach. The
updated modeling report can be found in Appendix D and a brief discussion of the results can be found in
Section 2.4 of the narrative (p. 45-47). Monitoring of the Caswell Beach shoreline would continue
annually for 3 years post -construction, in accordance with their previous commitment in the original
permit application, as stated on page 53 of the narrative and in Appendix G.
The proposed 180-acre Central Reach borrow area, located approximately 1.9 miles offshore of the Oak
Island shoreline, is reported to contain 1.18 million cubic yards of beach -compatible material. Up to
615,000 Cubic yards of material is proposed to be excavated at the targeted depths. The proposed Central
Reach borrow area partially overlaps the borrow area authorized for the Town of Holden Beach (State
Permit 414-02, SAW 2012-00286 and DWR Project 42001-1836, see Figure 2-2 in the narrative for both
borrow area locations). The Town of Oak Island's proposed Central Reach borrow area is divided into 4
zones of varying depth, all with a proposed +2' overdredge allowance. Zone 1 would target a dredge
depth of -38' NAVD 88 (+2'), Zone 2 would target a depth of 39.7' (+2') NAVD 88, and Zones 3 and 4
would target dredge depths of-37.3' (+2') and -40' (+2') NAVD 88, respectively. Vibracores taken from
the proposed Central Reach borrow area show a mean grain size of 0.32mm with an average composite
sand content of 86.53%. The average composite gravel content for material within proposed dredge
depths in this borrow area is 3.4%, the average granular content of 4.97%, average fines content is 5.09%
and average calcium carbonate is 16.17%. Sediment color in the borrow area was predominantly 10YR
3/1 when the vibracores were first analyzed and samples were later reassessed after a period of exposure

910196.7215
to the stun to estimate potential for bleaching (see pages 42-44 of the narrative and Appendix B2 for the
Central Reach vibracore logs). All samples within proposed dredge depths were reported at a Munsell
value of 10YR 5/1 or 6/1 while dry after time, but when reevaluated while wet, several samples still
remain the original darker 10YR 3/ 1 value (see page I of Appendix 132). No cultural resources were
identified in an Archeological Assessment performed in 2019 by Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. (see
Appendix E).
Dredging would be conducted either via a hopper dredge, with sediment transported to offshore
temporary mooring, then pumped by submerged pipeline onto the beach, or excavated via cutterhead
dredge and piped directly to the beach from the borrow area.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed dredging associated with the project would result in impacts to up to 484 acres of
submerged bottom state waters. Up to 304 acres would be dredged at Jay Bird Shoals and the proposed
Central Reach borrow area covers 180 acres. The project would result in the fill of approximately 63 acres
of upper beach (above MHW) and would fill approximately 134 acres of intertidal area and nearshore
shallow bottom. The dredging and beach fill would result in temporary increases in turbidity. Temporary
impacts to benthic and invertebrate infaunal communities can be expected. The applicant is proposing to
limit all dredging, sand placement and associated construction activities to the environmental window
between November 16 through April 30, thereby avoiding peak periods of biological activity. The
applicant has also committed to monitoring sand placement throughout the project to ensure material is
compatible and complies with State Technical Standards (15A NCAA07H .0312) through daily
inspections and weekly sediment analysis reports, as well as committing to utilizing existing permanent
beach accessways with heavy equipment and via existing public access corridors. The narrative states
they would locate staging areas for construction equipment off the beach in areas identified on the plans
(See Figure 2-17), but daily equipment staging would be located on the beach seaward of the dune line.
The narrative also states the applicant agrees to abide by many of the standard conditions as addressed in
Section 4 of the Narrative (Proposed Conservation Measures) and as included in the 2020 South Atlantic
Regional Biological Opinion (SARBO 2020).

PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant is proposing to expand the limits of the previously permitted beach nourishment and dune
building project for the Town of Oak Island. The project site extends the distance of the previously
permitted project approximately 26,100 additional linear feet in total, with 2 reaches extending from
McGlamery St to SE 63rd St, and a second reach starting between 7" & 1 Oth PL W and extending to the
West End Beach Access. The beach berth would be filled to an elevation of +7' NAVD 88 with a 20: 1
slope out to tie into existing grade from -P to -9' NAVD88 (MLW= -2.9' NAVD88). An engineered
"starter dune" is also proposed along the majority of the expanded area with a maximum elevation
ranging from +13.0' to +1S.5' NAVD88, to be constructed with a 10' wide dune crest, and with a 4:1
slope on the waterward side and a 5.1 slope on the landward side. This design appears to advance the
proposed engineered dune to (or in one area waterward of) the current MHW line along part of the project
area. Anticipated fill volumes for the project would place a minimum of 15 with an average of SO cubic
yards per linear foot. As proposed, a gross excavated volume of up to 1,667 million cubic yards of sand
has been calculated to account for an estimated placement loss of up to 30%. A total fill volume of
approximately 1,282,000 cubic yards is anticipated to be placed on the beach, given current conditions. It
is currently estimated that 5,852,607 square feet would be filled below MHW (535,834 cubic yards)_ Of
that material, approximately 2,150,482 square feet (191,049 cubic yards) would also be located below
MLW. Approximately 2,740,996 square feet (746,166 cubic yards) of beach fill material would be placed
above the MHW line. The applicant also estimates approximately 93' of fill would be placed water -ward
of the current MHW line on average, within a maximum projected distance of 279' of fill placed below
MHW. A table provided by the applicant in the narrative (Table 2-3) shows the average pre -Matthew
beach width ranging from 57'-69', and the average anticipated post -construction equilibrated beach width
ranging from 73'-96'. However, it should be noted that the estimates provided are based on a single
"representative profile" for each area (4 profiles in total for the project area) and estimated equilibration
was simulated using SBEACH and a 2-year return period storm. While the applicant asserts the estimated
equilibrated recreational beach width (the distance between +7' NAVD88 to MHW) will increase the
beach width that existed prior to Hurricane Matthew, there appears to be potential for post -equilibration
narrowing of the beach width should Oak Island experience more than a 2-year storm.. The applicant has

The applicant states the entire volume of material will still be available in the previously permitted Jay
Bird Shoals site, as proposed, although they are also requesting to allow dredging from a second borrow
area at Central Reach. The Jay Bird Shoals site has been divided into three zones: Zone 1 would be
excavated to a depth of -26' NAVD88, with a proposed 2' dredge overdepth allowance proposed for the
entire borrow area_ Therefore, maximum proposed dredge depth for Zone 1 would be -28' NAVD88.
Zone 2 would be excavated to a design depth of -35' (+2') NAVD88 and Zone 3's proposed dredge depth
is -27' (+2') NAVD88. This is a change from the originally permitted dredge depths to account for
overdredge allowance not included in the original application for Zones 1 and 3 and dredge additional
depth in Zone 2. The sediment analysis has been updated for the site to account for the additional dredge
depth. The mean grain size for the Jay Bird Shoals borrow area, as reported based on a revised composite
of applicable vibracore samples within the newly proposed dredged depths, is 0.27mm. Gravel is reported
at 1.27%, granular material at 3.57%, fines at 4.61%, and calcium carbonate is now reported at 13.98%.
The applicant estimates the volume of material available in the Jay Bird Shoals site, after accounting for
material dredged during the upcoming 2020/21 project and the dredge buffers, is approximately 2.59
million cubic yards.
Updated wave & sediment transport modeling has also been reported for the modified template due to
concerns previously expressed by the Village of Bald Head Island and Town of Caswell Beach. The
updated modeling report can be found in Appendix D and a brief discussion of the results can be found in
Section 2.4 of the narrative (p. 45-47). Monitoring of the Caswell Beach shoreline would continue
annually for 3 years post -construction, in accordance with their previous commitment in the original
permit application, as stated on page 53 of the narrative and in Appendix G.

Island shoreline, is reported to contain 1.18 million cubic yards of beach -compatible material. Up to
615,000 cubic yards of material is proposed to be excavated at the targeted depths. The proposed Central
Reach borrow area partially overlaps the borrow area authorized for the Town of Holden Beach (State
Permit #14-02, SAW 2012-00286 and DWR Project 92001-1836, see figure 2-2 in the narrative for both
borrow area locations). The Town of Oak Island's proposed Central Reach borrow area is divided into 4
zones of varying depth, all with a proposed +2' overdredge allowance. Zone I would target a dredge
depth of -38' NAVD 88 (+2'), Zone 2 would target a depth of 39_T (+2') NAVD 88, and Zones 3 and 4
would target dredge depths of -37.3' (+2') and -40' (+2') NAVD 88, respectively. Vibracores taken from
the proposed Central Reach borrow area show a mean grain size of 0.32mm with an average composite
sand content of 86.53%. The average composite gravel content for material within proposed dredge
depths in this borrow area is 3.4%, the average granular content of 4.97%, average fines content is 5.09%
and average calcium carbonate is 16.17%. Sediment color in the borrow area was predominantly 1 OYR
3/1 when the vibracores were first analyzed and samples were later reassessed after a period of exposure

to the sun to estimate potential for bleaching (see pages 42-44 of the narrative and Appendix B2 for the
Central Reach vibracore logs). All samples within proposed dredge depths were reported at a Munsell
value of 10YR 511 or 6/1 while dry after time, but when reevaluated while wet, several samples still
remain the original darker 1 OYR 3 I value (see page 1 of Appendix B2). No cultural resources were
identified in an Archeological Assessment performed in 2019 by Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. (see
Appendix E).
Dredging would be conducted either via a hopper dredge, with sediment transported to offshore
temporary mooring, then pumped by submerged pipeline onto the beach, or excavated via cutterhead
dredge and piped directly to the beach from the borrow area.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed dredging associated with the project would result in impacts to up to 484 acres of
submerged bottom state waters. Up to 304 acres would be dredged at Jay Bird Shoals and the proposed
Central Reach borrow area covers 180 acres. The project would result in the fill of approximately 63 acres
of upper beach (above MHW) and would fill approximately 134 acres of intertidal area and nearshore
shallow bottom. The dredging and beach fill would result in temporary increases in turbidity. Temporary
impacts to benthic and invertebrate infaunal communities can be expected. The applicant is proposing to
limit all dredging, sand placement and associated construction activities to the environmental window
between November 16 through April 30, thereby avoiding peals periods of biological activity. The
applicant has also committed to monitoring sand placement throughout the project to ensure material is
compatible and complies with State Technical Standards (15A NCAA07H .0312) through daily
inspections and weekly sediment analysis reports, as well as committing to utilizing existing permanent
beach accessways with heavy equipment and via existing public access corridors. The narrative states
they would locate staging areas for construction equipment off the beach in areas identified on the plans
(See Figure 2-17), but daily equipment staging would be located on the beach seaward of the dune line.
The narrative also states the applicant agrees to abide by many of the standard conditions as addressed in
Section 4 of the Narrative (Proposed Conservation Measures) and as included in the 2020 South Atlantic
Regional Biological Opinion (SARBO 2020).
