ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
French Creek and Hadnot Point Utilities/ Cogdels Creek Sewer Line Crossing
This project was initially authorized under Nationwide Permit 12 (Action ID 2001 1732) in December
2011 as part of a group of utilities that were being installed on Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp
Lejeune A copy of that authorization is attached That NWP expired on March 18, 2012 However,
all NWPs were re- authorized by the USACE on March 19 2012 and allowed for 1 year for
completion of the permitted activity A new Pre - Construction Notification was submitted to cover all
ongoing utility work except for the Cogdels Creek Sewer Line Crossing Authorization for the
ongoing utility work was issued on April 29, 2013 At the time of that authorization, details of the
location and construction methods of the Cogdels Creek Sewer Line Crossing had not been
finalized
The purpose of this Pre - Construction Notification is for the revised alignment of sewer line crossing
and a change in the impacts from the crossing from the original request
B Project information and Prior Project History
3d Explain the purpose of the proposed project
A permanent incremental increase of Marine Corps personnel is currently underway at Marine Corps
Base (MCB) Camp Leleune (Base) under the Grow the Force initiative A force addition of
approximately 7,000 marines is proposed at the Base To support this growth, the USMC is proposing
a combination of (1) new infrastructure construction (e g buildings, roads, utility lines /equipment), (2)
demolition and /or upgrades to existing infrastructure, and (3) relocating existing units and personnel to
consolidate and better support combat missions At the Base, the USMC proposes to expand and
replace existing utilities at Hadnot Point and French Creek as a component of these development
activities These utility expansions are to address current deficiencies as well as in support of new
facilities that are proposed for construction under Base expansion as documented in the Final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) USMC Grow the Force in North Carolina (December 2009)
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used
The project initially consisted of a number of different utility improvements which were described in the
previous Preconstruction Notification submittals All utility work has been completed except for the
sanitary sewer crossing of Cogdels Creek wetlands
The design scope for the Hadnot Point and French Creek Cantonment Area (HP -FC) Sanitary Sewer
Collection System is to provide a gravity sewer collection system network that will allow for the
abandonment of as many of the existing wastewater lift stations as possible There are presently 47 lift
stations within the two areas
A new centrally located lift station was constructed near the intersection of the Gonzalez Boulevard
extension and the tank trail Gravity sewer mains were installed to connect this area to the rest of the
sewer system
Four new gravity mains connect the new lift station Gonzalez Boulevard North, Gonzalez Boulevard
South, Tank Trail West, and Tank Trail East The Gonzalez Boulevard North sanitary sewer main
parallels the Gonzalez Boulevard extension to the intersection with the Birch Street extension (this is
the sewer line that has not been constructed)

AECOM
Additional Project History
The original design proposed for the 18 -inch gravity sanitary sewer to cross the Cogdels Creek
wetlands at a location parallel to the Gonzalez Bridge which was to be constructed around the same
time The wetland crossing at the bridge location was approximately 650 feet long The Utility
Contractor originally planned to construct the gravity sewer crossing using the following typical
wetland construction methods
• Provide a logging mat access road to move stone and pipe adjacent to the installation area of
the gravity sewer
• Use 6 crane mats to provide a level work platform for both their excavation and backfill
machines, which would excavate utilizing a trench box and sheet steel
• In the area of the creek channel the contractor planned to sheet pile off the creek to allow for
the pipe installation in the area of the standing water
Site Issues Found During Construction
During the construction of the Gonzalez Bridge the Utility Contractor was able to perform a detailed
investigation of the wetlands that was not able to be performed during the design phase of the project
The following aspects of the wetlands were determined to be considerably worse than originally
anticipated
It was determined that approximately 400 feet of the gravity sewer installation would occur in
open water with heavy vegetative cover In this 400 feet span the water was 1 — 4 feet in
depth
Beneath the water was 3 — 5 feet thick matting of vegetative organic matter and mud
Pile driving logs for the bridge installation indicated that the utility installation would encounter
a layer of cemented shells that had the density of a typical hard rock layer
Individually the above conditions could be handled by appropriate construction means and methods
In combination the required construction effort increased significantly The Utility Contractor reviewed
several means and methods of crossing the wetlands at the proposed location This effort included
obtaining on -site investigation by several experienced subcontractor specialist The Utility Contractor
considered the following construction options
Inflatable cofferdams to provide a dry work area between the cofferdams A cofferdam
subcontractor indicated that this type construction would not work at this crossing The heavy
vegetative matting under the water level would not allow the inflatable cofferdams to provide a
tight seal against the surface bottom Water would continue to flow through the vegetative
matting thereby not allowing the water within the work area to be pumped down
Install crane matting to bridge the soft material for the construction equipment to work from A
crane matting subcontractor indicated that he estimated it would take at least five (5) layers of
crane mats to bridge the very soft underlying material Even at this level there was not an
assurance that this would be sufficient This level of effort had an estimated price in the range
of a million dollars for just the matting
Use directional drill or bore and hack for crossing under the wetlands The top of the 3 — 4 ft
thick rock layer vaned up and down in elevation along the proposed invert of the gravity
sewer A directional drill / bore and hack means of crossing the wetlands would have a
reasonable chance of success if the alignment is in all soil or all rock profile With the invert
alignment at the transition from soil to rock the bore would very likely deflect from the required
alignment without the operator knowledge until it was too late to correct

AECOM
The last consideration was to use the work bridge that was built for the Gonzalez Bridge This
proposal would have the work area sheet piled in three phases Construction material would
be handled from the work bridge to the sheet pile work area This proposal would require
considerable double handling of material and an extensive work plan of preparation of the
area within the sheet pile to allow for a safe environment This option was also very cost
prohibitive
Section 4 Jurisdictional Determination
Numerous wetland delineations and jurisdictional determinations have been performed within various
parts of the project area on the Base Jurisdictional boundaries of these wetland areas were provided
to AECOM for inclusion on the Design Plans for planning, design, avoidance and minimization The
following wetland jurisdictional determination was utilized for this project
• The wetlands associated with the Cogdels Creek drainage north of McHugh Blvd were
delineated by Tetra Tech in 2010 and a Jurisdictional Determination was issued by the
USACE on March 24, 2011 (Action Id SAW- 2010 - 01798)
Section 5 Project History
This project was initially authorized under Nationwide Permit 12 (Action ID 2001 1732) in December
2011 as part of a group of utilities that were being installed on MCB Camp Lejeune A copy of that
authorization is attached That NWP expired on March 18, 2012 However, all NWPs were re-
authorized by the USACE on March 19 2012 and allowed for 1 year for completion of the permitted
activity A new Pre - Construction Notification was submitted to cover all ongoing utility work except
for the Cogdels Creek Sewer Line Crossing Authorization for the ongoing utility work was issued
on April 29, 2013 At the time of that authorization, details of the location and construction methods
of the Cogdels Creek Sewer Line Crossing had not been finalized
The purpose of this Pre - Construction Notification is for the revised alignment of sewer line crossing
and a change in the impacts from the crossing from the original request

Wetlands with no impacts shown for documentation of avoidance and minimization
Permanent wetland impacts are based upon a 10 foot maintained cleared utility easement Inmost
areas the wetlands while impacted by the removal of vegetation will remain jurisdictional areas
following installation of the utility
The gravity sewer installation will require a 50/60 foot temporary construction corridor (50 foot in Area
1 and 60 foot in Area 2) This width is inclusive of the 10 foot permanent easement which will be
trenched for installation of the sewer line
20 feet of the total width is necessary in order to build a mat road adjacent to excavator / trench work
zone This mat road is critical to the operation, as it provides access for off road dump trucks These
trucks are essential due to the removal of liquid soils, depth of excavation, and the delivery of suitable
backfill The heavy duty off road trucks require a wide road to help distribute the weight of the trucks
In addition, the trucks require the width in order to safely back in towards the excavator Typical mat
width for the proposed type of operation is 20 feet
40 feet of the work zone is required due to the size of the excavator, required swing radius, well point
pumping equipment, and material staging area This area also included the width of the header pipe,
and space between well points And most important, adequate room is required between all the
equipment in order for the contractor's employees to safely walk within the confines of the work zone
Impacts associated with the original 650 foot crossing were 0 15 acres permanent and 0 29
temporary

The proposed alternative will route the gravity sewer so as to cross Cogdels Creek approximately 650
feet upstream from the original design crossing The attached plan provides the proposed route The
route will extend the gravity sewer a longer distance and would cross the wetlands at two locations for
a total distance of 662 feet The proposed alternative route will cross the wetlands at a location that is
still difficult but in general more favorable for construction
Several alternative routes were evaluated One route brought the sewer line all the way to the tank
trail crossing and then paralleled the crossing However, deeper water in the vicinity of the existing
culverts precluded this from being a viable option The proposed route crosses in the narrowest
portion of the wetland and utilizes part of the wetland that has been previously used
Silt fence will be placed between all construction areas and wetlands to prevent impacts from
construction activities

AECOM
A turbidity curtain will be placed upstream of the culverts for the Tank Trail crossing to protect
downstream areas from construction activities
E Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan
Installation of the utility lines will occur under a General Stormwater Permit

While several Endangered Species are known to occur at Camp Lejeune, suitable habitat for those
species are not present in the project area Extensive surveys for various federally - listed species
have occurred on the Base The Base GIS data did not indicate any know occurrences of any
threatened or endangered species in or near the various utility comdors Surveys of these areas by
AECOM biologists did not reveal any suitable habitat for any species
6 Essential Fish Habitat
No essential fish habitat is present in the Cogdels Creek wetlands
7 Wetland Restoration Plan
Wetland sods will be excavated prior to installation of the utility line and temporarily stockpiled Once
the utility line has been installed the wetland sods will be replaced and the area returned to its original
grade Wetland areas disturbed during installation of the utility lines will be restored Topsoil will be

replaced on all disturbed areas and the areas returned to their original grade An Asbuilt Survey of the
wetlands will be performed to compare with site conditions prior to construction activities
The wetland areas will be seeded with a permanent wetland seed mix as follows
Species
Agrostis stolonifera
Carex vulpinoldea
Elymus virgirncus
Helenium autumnale
Iris versicolor
Desmodlum canadense
Rudbeckia hirta

A substitute seed mix may be utilized with the approval of Base Environmental personnel
Due to the presence of surrounding trees and existing seed sources in the wetland soils planting of
woody vegetation (trees and shrubs) is not proposed as it is anticipated that the temporarily disturbed
areas will quickly naturally revegetate Following construction activities, restoration of the wetland
grades and seeding, the site will be visually monitored for a period of one year If it appears that
vegetation is not reestablishing an action plan will be developed to address the issue

Size and location of property (water body, road name /number, town, etc ) The project spans several watersheds
including the Cogdels Creek and Wallace Creek watersheds. The project is located on mainside of Marine Corps
Base, Camp Lejeune, and is located along JC Smith Rd., McHugh Blvd., Sneads Ferry Rd., Holcomb Blvd.,
Gonzalez Blvd., and others.
Description of projects area and activity The Base is proposing to expand and replace exisiting utilities at Hadnot
Point and French Creek. These utility expansions are to address current deficiencies as well as in support of new
facilities that are proposed for construction under Base expansion as described in the Grow the Force
Environmental Impact Statement. The project will impact a total of 1.102 acres of waters of the US where 0.392
acres will be permanent impact and 0.71 acres will be temporary in nature. This permanent impact primarily
characterized by the conversion of forest resources within the utility easement will be offset by a payment to the in-
lieu -fee program.
