Please give a brief project description below and include location information. *
This proposed project was discussed during an interagency scoping
meeting held on April 20, 2020. Representatives from DWR were in
attendance.
The proposed action is a one-time beach nourishment event that will
include sand placement along a 2.73-mile section of oceanfront
shoreline. The main fill portion of the proposed project (excluding
tapers) aeglns at the nortn town limit (Daseline station ]ts+UU) ana
extends south to Windsong Way located near baseline station
314+88. The length of the main portion of nourished shoreline,
excluding the tapers, is 12,500 feet. If the Kill Devil Hills project is
constructed as a stand-alone project, two taper sections would be
included, one on the south end and the other on the north end of the
main placement area. The north taper would extend 933.2 feet into
the Town of Kitty Hawk, terminating just south of Tateway Road at
station 179+88. The south taper would extend 1,031 feet, ending at
the Prospect Avenue public access at station 324+97. Thus, the
maximum extents of the Kill Devil Hills project would include of
shoreline. The project design, developed prior to the initial
construction of the project in 2017, includes a 20-foot-wide dune at
elevation +15.0 feet NAVD fronted by a berm of varying width.
Modeling results and topographic data developed prior to the 2017
project indicated that no design dune was required between stations
240+42 and 269+49, and south of 304+82. Along those portions of
the project only a berm was constructed. Since the construction of
the 2017 project, the majority of the design dune has remained intact.
For the proposed project, Kill Devil Hills intends to evaluate the
design dune at the time of construction, and if portions of the dune
have been eroded at the toe, those portions of the dune would be
repaired to the original design configuration. The square footage of
fill to be placed below MHW (1.2 ft. NAVD88) to the seaward toe of fill
is 3,645,363 square feet (83.68 acres), and the total fill area above
MHW is 1,725,996 square feet (39.62 acres), for a total disturbed
area of 5,034,064.98 square feet (123.31 acres). Plan view drawings
and cross -sections along profiles at 1,000-foot spacing are provided
in Appendix A.
Construction of the preferred design along with 5 years of advanced
fill would require 848,735 cubic yards of fill material obtained from
Borrow Area A. Actual volume dredged from the borrow area will likely
require up to an additional 20% to account for losses during
dredging; therefore, the total estimated dredge volume is 865,710
cubic yards. The BOEM lease request for excavating material from
within Borrow Area A will include additional volume in the unlikely
event a storm eroded the Towns' shoreline prior to the construction
of the project. In total, the amount of material that could be excavated
from the borrow area would be 1,273,103 cy, or 50% more than the
848,735 cy of fill required by the preferred design and advanced fill.
Following the construction of the 2017 project, an after -dredge
survey revealed that Borrow Area A still contained 12,829,500 cy of
material, therefore this borrow area contains enough volume for this
project along with the other three towns' proposed projects.
As discussed, the Town of Kitty Hawk is also seeking permits to allow
the construction of a shore protection project along its entire
oceanfront shoreline. Consequently, there is a possibility both the Kill
Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk projects could be constructed concurrently,
which would eliminate the need for the north taper section of the Kill
Devil Hills project. Dependent upon several variables, including
whether the project is constructed as a stand-alone project, available
funding, time or contractor constraints, or any unforeseen limitations,
the applicant may build all or a portion of the proposed project.
Material will be obtained from the borrow area using a hopper
dredge, a cutterhead dredge, or a combination of the two. In the case
of a cutterhead dredge, sand will be transported from the borrow
area to the beach as a slurry via pipeline; use of a hopper dredge
would involve transport to a nearshore pump -out location, and

constructed on the seaward side of the discharge area. The sand
slurry will be discharged behind the temporary dike, and excess water
will be directed parallel to the shoreline and around the edge of the
dike. Once discharged onto the beach, the material will be shaped
and graded using loaders, dozers, and other earth moving
equipment.
