I. Introduction
Based on comments received during the interagency scoping process and public
involvement for Phase II, FHWA determined that it was necessary to reassess the Ferry
Alternative. The purpose of this report is to document the reassessment of the Ferry Alternative
by the Federal Highway Administration ("FHWA") and the North Carolina Department of
Transportation ("NCDOT") as part of the planning process for the second phase ("Phase II") of
State Transportation Improvement Project No. B-2500, NC 12 Replacement of Herbert C.
Bonner Bridge ("Project" or `B-2500"). See Appendix A for a Project Location Map. This
update includes a review of the Ferry Alternative as documented through the B-2500 NEPA
process, an overview of comments received since the Record of Decision and post-Hurricane
Irene regarding potential ferry options, a brief overview of the North Carolina Ferry Division, a
reevaluation of assumptions for conceptual ferry options, conclusions for updated ferry options
using conventional vessels, and a review of other ferry vessel types and their potential
implementation in the B-2500 study area. In light of comments received from governmental
partners and the public during the scoping process for Phase II of the Project, FHWA and
NCDOT determined that this update was warranted.
After completing this review of the Ferry Alternative, FHWA and NCDOT reaffirm the
determination that the Ferry Alternative is not a reasonable alternative to fulfill the purposes and
needs of the project. Because the Ferry Alternative is unreasonable, no additional study of the
Ferry Alternative far Phase II is required by NEPA.
II. An Overview Of The Consideration Of Ferries In The B-2500 NEPA Process
Through The Issuance Of The Record Of Decision On December 20, 2010
In 1991, the North Carolina Department of Transportation ("NCDOT") completed a
feasibility study to examine possible replacement alternatives for the aging Herbert C. Bonner
Bridge (`Bonner Bridge"). The range of alternatives developed was discussed in the 1993 Draft
Environmental Impact Statement ("DEIS"). The use of ferries was among the alternatives
considered by NCDOT to replace Bonner Bridge. In the DEIS, a conceptual ferry route,
developed in consultation with the NCDOT Ferry Division, departed Bodie Island from the
Oregon Inlet Marina complex and returned to land on the northern end of Hatteras Island, near
the bulkhead site used during construction of the terminal groin, a distance of approximately 3
miles. See Appendix B for the 1993 Crossing Alternatives Diagram. As explained in the DEIS,
the Ferry Alternative assumed the use of Hatteras Class ferry boats, which can carry 30 vehicles
at a time. i Ultimately, the Ferry Alternative did not compare favorably to several other
conceptual study options for three primary reasons:
(1) it was substantially more expensive than other alternatives considered;
(2) it would decrease the present ]evel of traffic service across Oregon Inlet
(and increase emergency evacuation time); the decrease in traffic service
would significantly impact the economies of Hatteras Island and Dare
County; and
(3) this alternative would have significant impacts on the natural environment
due to the extensive dredging necessary to create and maintain the ferry
channel and basins.
As a result of these drawbacks and limitations, FHWA and NCDOT determined that the Ferry
Alternative was not a reasonable transportation alternative. It was not carried forward as a
detailed study alternative for B-2500.
In July 2002, the first meeting of the B-2500 NEPA/Section 404 Merger Team ("Merger
Team") was held.2 At this meeting, the purposes of and the needs for B-2500 were established.
Whereas the 1993 DEIS considered alternatives for replacing only the bridge over Oregon Inlet
(Bonner Bridge), the Merger Team in 2002 concurred that the B-2500 study area would be
extended to Rodanthe in order to address areas of NC 12 which are vulnerable to threats of
shoreline erosion, inlet formation, ocean overwash, and sand cover (i.e., "hot spots"). See
Appendix A for location of the "hot spots" in the project study area. As set forth in the NEPA
documents and memorialized in the Merger Agreement, the purposes behind B-2500 are the
following:
i In addition to considering a Hatteras Class ferry boat, which could carry 30 vehicles at a time,
the DEIS considered the use of potential air cushion vehicle (Hovercraft) ferries because they
could "provide for a faster travel time between terminals and dredging of a[navigation] channel
would not be required." DEIS Page 2-43. However, it was determined that Hovercraft were not
"sound alternative[s]" to ferry boats. Id. The use of a catamaran (Hoverspeed) vessel was also
considered because that "vessel can carry 80 automobiles and can travel at up to 50 miles per
hour, much faster than the Hatteras Class ferry vessels." Id. However, the use of catamaran
vessels was also found not to be a sound alternative to a ferry boat.
2 The NEPA/Section 404 Merger Process is a streamlining effort that helps to avoid duplication
of effort between the NEPA and [Clean Water Act] Section 404 processes, since the United
States Army Corps of Engineers ("USACE") must meet the requirements of NEPA in order to
issue a dredge and fill permit under the Clean Water Act. The goal of the Merger Process is to
obtain stakeholder concurrence on key issues during the NEPA study so that those decisions do
not need to be revisited during application for a USACE's permit.

• provide a new means of access from Bodie Island to Hatteras Island prior
to the end of Bonner Bridge's service life;
• provide a replacement crossing that takes into account natural channel
migration; and
• provide a replacement solution that will not be endangered by shoreline
movement through year 2050.
These purposes correspond to the underlying needs of B-2500, upon which the Merger Team
also agreed:
• while Bonner Bridge is approaching the end of its service life, demand for
convenient daily and emergency access across Oregon Inlet is expected to
continue;
• the need for bridge spans of sufficient height and width for navigation
through anticipated areas of future natural channel migration, helping to
reduce dredging of the inlet; and
• portions of NC 12 south of Bonner Bridge are threatened by shoreline
erosion and overwash.
The Project's purposes and needs guided the merger team's selection of reasonable
alternatives that would be carried forward for detailed environmental study. The identification of
the detailed study alternatives relied on a screening process. Certain alternatives originally
considered in the early 1990s — including the Ferry Alternative — remained unviable, impractical,
or unreasonable when alternatives were screened and subsequent environmental documents were
prepared.
In the 2005 Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement ("SDEIS"), the analysis
of the Ferry Alternative was further updated. As explained in the SDEIS, additional limitations
of the Ferry Alternative included:
• approximately 59 acres of wetlands would be permanently used by ferry
operating facilities on Bodie and Hatteras Islands;
• ferry service would increase inlet traffic and operate across and conflict
with eXisting inlet traffic;
• limited transport capacity would dramatically increase the evacuation
clearance time from Hatteras and Ocracoke islands;
3
• the USACE believes the ferry channel in the Oregon Inlet area would have
stability problems;
• ferries would severely limit the movement of goods and services from the
mainland to Hatteras Island;
• the use of ferries could alter access to Cape Hatteras National Seashore
("Seashore") and the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge ("Refuge");
• a ferry terminal and ferry landing would be constructed within the
boundaries of the Seashore;
• dredging the ferry navigation channel would affect benthos and fisheries;
• the permanent use of biotic communities for the operating facilities
associated with the landings on Hatteras and Bodie islands would be
substantial; and
• wintering waterfowl and migrating shorebirds would be moderately
impacted because of loss of habitat caused by dredging basins and
navigational channels and permanent habitat loss.
The Final Environmental Impact Statement ("FEIS") published in September 2008, also
included a discussion about the Ferry Alternative. In addition to the reasons set forth in the
DEIS and SDEIS, the FEIS provided more detail on the reasons this alternative was not selected
for detailed study, including:
• the dredging required to implement and maintain the Ferry Alternative
would be extensive and costly. A navigation channel 200 feet wide and 3
miles long (approximately 70 acres) across Oregon Inlet would have to be
maintained to a depth of 14 feet3 (assuming a direct route from the Bodie
Island terminal and around Bodie Island to a Hatteras Island terminal near
the southern terminus of Bonner Bridge). The creation of such a channel
would result in the removal and disposal of approximately 1.8 million
cubic yards of dredged material.
• The length of the navigation channel, and the amount of dredging required
to maintain that channel, would increase to as much as 18 miles if the
Hatteras Island terminal for the Ferry Alternative was placed at the
3 A dredged navigation channel 200 feet wide and 14 feet below mean water level would allow
two Hatteras Class ferries to safely pass.
4
emergency ferry dock that now exists in Rodanthe.4 The area disturbed by
a navigation channel 200 feet wide and 18 miles long is approximately
420 acres. The construction of this channel would increase the amount of
dredged material during the construction of the navigation channel to 10.8
million cubic yards.
• the transition of the Oregon Inlet Marina complex into a permanent ferry
terminal would require expansion of the existing basin and navigation
channel and construction of bulkhead, slips, ramps and a terminal building
and support facilities. These construction efforts would require 52 acres
of land in and around the Marina complex and the adjacent (former) US
Coast Guard Station. In Rodanthe, approximately 23 acres of land would
be required to construct the necessary ferry terminal and associated
facilities.
• loss of road access to Bodie Island across Oregon Inlet would isolate the
communities on Hatteras Island (i.e., the time required to transport those
requiring immediate medical aid would be increased; the ability of fire and
police on Hatteras Island to receive timely assistance from other
departments would be reduced; the daily operation time for removal of
solid waste to a mainland landfill would be doubled; an alternative system
for providing telephone and electric services would have to be developed).
• visitor levels would be affected by the lack of capacity on ferries and by
the additional time it would take to cross Oregon Inlet.
In the FEIS consideration was also given to the use of air-cushion vehicle (Hovercraft)
ferries, as they would provide faster travel times between terminals and would not require
dredging a navigation channel. Despite these positive attributes, it was determined in 2008 that
air-cushion vehicles would not be a viable alternative to a ferry boat because: (i) air-cushion
ferries with more than a two- or three-car capacity were no longer manufactureds; (ii) assuming
' As noted in the FEIS, the 3-mile ferry route described in the DEIS was expanded to encompass
an 18-mile route, with a proposed southern landing point in the village of Rodanthe. The
extension of the ferry route was made so as to be consistent with the changes in the B-2500 study
area; the study area was expanded to include the northern tip of Hatteras Island and the village of
Rodanthe to encompass the "hot spots."
s Although air-cushion vehicles could be custom-manufactured for use between Bodie and
Hatteras islands, no cost estimates for these custom-built vessels were available. A
representative of British Hovercraft Corporation indicated that it was doubtful that custom-
5
air-cushion vehicles were available, the time saved by using a faster vehicle would be minimal in
comparison to the total trip time, including the time required to load and unload the vessels; and
(iii) some economies of scale, including the use of existing off-site maintenance facilities, would
be lost if air-cushion vehicles were used because these vessels are completely different from any
other vehicles used by NCDOT's Ferry Division. Hoverspeed (catamaran) vehicles were also
considered because these vessels can carty 80 automobiles and travel up to 50 miles per hour.�
Hoverspeed vessels were also not a sound alternative to ferries for the same time and economies
of scale reasoning applicable to Hovercraft.
The FEIS concluded that the three basic flaws with the Ferry Alternative that were
identified in the DEIS remained valid (and would even be exacerbated by the increased length of
the route to Rodanthe if this alternative was implemented).
IIL Comments Received Post-ROD And After Hurricane
FHWA issued the Record of Decision ("ROD") for B-2500 on December 20, 2010. That
document contained responses to comments received on the 2010 Environmental Assessment
("EA") and summarized the history of B-2500, the range of alternatives considered, the
conclusions of the Section 4(� evaluation, and the basis for designating the Parallel Bridge
Corridor with NC 12 Transportation Management Plan ("PBGTMP") as the Selected
Alternative. After the ROD was issued, NCDOT began moving forward with the
implementation of the PBC/TMP.
As a result of infrastructure and coastal conditions within the B-2500 project area
following Hurricane Irene (August 2011), and pursuant to the process set forth in the ROD,
FHWA and NCDOT initiated planning for Phase II in accordance with the TMP and the
NEPA/Section 404 Merger Process. An informational/scoping Merger Team meeting was held
in October 2011 in which participants were asked to provide comments on the portions of NC 12
breached during Hurricane Irene and the alternatives developed to date through the B-2500
environmental studies. Three Public Workshops were also held in December 2011 and January
2012 to solicit public comments and suggestions for Phase II.
Through the course of these meetings, Merger Team member agencies and the public
submitted comments and questions regarding the potential utilization of ferries. Generally, these
comments suggested that the Ferry Alternative needed to be reevaluated, which involved FHWA
and NCDOT doing the following:
manufactured vessels would be cost-effective even taking into account the amount of dredging
required to operate ferry boats.
6 Hoverspeed vehicles were designed speciiically to compete with the English Channel tunnel.

• Update assumptions for the Ferry Alternative, re-engaging NCDOT's
Ferry Division personnel as appropriate;
• Update cost estimates for a"modern" Ferry Alternative;
• Consider using high capacity, high speed ferries;
• Consider privatizing a ferry system for Hatteras Island in lieu of publicly-
funded infrastructure.
As a result of the comments and requests for information, the Ferry Alternative was re-
evaluated by FHWA with assistance from NCDOT as part of the Phase II NEPA process.
IV. NCDOT Ferry Division — Background
As of December 1, 2012, the NCDOT Ferry Division operates eight routes� with 22
ferries and employs over 450 permanent employees and 150 seasonal worlcers. The Ferry
Division's operations are supported by 13 terminals, 9 Visitor/Welcome Centers, 4 staff
dormitories (expanding to 6 in 2013), a full service shipyard, tugs, barges, a dredge, and other
support vessels. Currently, the Ferry Division transports over 1.1 million vehicles per year
(accommodating any car, trailer, or RV that can legally operate on the highway) and more than
2.5 million passengers across five separate bodies of water — the Currituck and Pamlico sounds
and the Cape Fear, Neuse, and Pamlico rivers.
The Ferry Division is financed through an appropriation of state funds by the North
Carolina General Assembly and through tolls collected on three of the operational routes.8 The
Ferry Division does not directly receive any federal funding to support its operations. The
USACE regularly maintains the main federal navigation channels utilized by the Ferry Division
at an average annual cost of $1 million. The costs to maintain the navigation channels vary from
year to year and are dependent upon the weather, tide dynamics, coastal conditions, etc. The
federal government depends on the NC Ferry Division to maintain approaches from the main
navigation channel to the ferry terminals and for all emergency management.
During fiscal year 2012-2013, the North Carolina Genera] Assembly appropriated
approXimately $44 million to the NCDOT Ferry Division including $34.5 million for operations,
� The routes operated over the course of the year by the Ferry Division include: Cedar Island to
Ocracoke; Bayview to Aurora; Southport to Fort Fisher; Hatteras to Ocracoke; Cherry Branch to
Minnesott Beach; Swan Quarter to Ocracoke; Currituck to Knotts Island; Stumpy Point to
Rodanthe (emergency operation).
� Tolls are collected on the Cedar Island to Ocracoke, Swan Quarter to Ocracoke, and Southport
to Fort Fisher routes.
7
$7 million to replace an aging dredge, and a one-time $2.5 million separate appropriation. The
North Carolina General Assembly has mandated tolling on two additional ferry routes, beginning
on July 1, 2013, bringing the total number of tolled ferry routes to iive. The Cherry Branch to
Minnesott Beach and Bayview to Aurora routes have been identified as the two additional routes
to be tolled. This is expected to raise total annual toll collections to approximately $5 million.
The appropriated monies and toll collections fund the annual operating cost for the NC Ferry
Division as well as regular maintenance and replacement of the fleet.
V. Assumutions For The 2012 Ferrv Alternative
In order to address the comments received during the Phase II scoping process, the
historical assumptions underlying the Ferry Alternative needed to be revisited and updated as
appropriate. FHWA consulted with the NCDOT Ferry Division regarding the baseline
assumptions used to evaluate the Ferry Alternative during the B-2500 NEPA Process. The
following assumptions were examined:
A. Current Traffic Demand
The FEIS estimated the year 2002 annual average daily traffic ("AADT") to be 5,400
vehicles per day that cross Oregon Inlet using the existing Bonner Bridge. A review of AADT
maps for the years 2001-2011 (http://www.ncdot.�ov/travel/statema�pin�/trafficvolumemaps/)
indicates that demand to cross Oregon Inlet has averaged around 5,200 vehicles per day, with
upward and downward fluctuations from year to year. FHWA and NCDOT have concluded that
the estimated 5,400 vehicles per day used in previous NEPA documents is reasonably close to
actual conditions for analysis purposes.
For purposes of reevaluating the Ferry Alternative, the AADT was converted and
rounded from 5,400 vehicles per day to an annual demand of 2,000,000 vehicles per year.
In addition to assessments of options that carry 2 million vehicles per year, the NC Ferry
Division examined options that carry 1,000,000 vehicles per year. It is noted, however, that such
options would fail to satisfy the demand for continued convenient daily and emergency access
across Oregon Inlet.
B. Vessel Type
The 2008 FEIS assumed the use of a Hatteras Class ferry vessel in the implementation of
the Ferry Alternative based on prior discussions with the NCDOT Ferry Division. FHWA
conferred with the NCDOT Ferry Division in late 2011 and throughout 2012 to reassess the use
of this type of vessel. The NCDOT Ferry Division provided the following data regarding the
classes of ferries currently in use in North Carolina.

9"Draft" is commonly defined as the distance from the surface of the water to the ship's lceel
(i.e., how deep into the water the ship sits). To safely accommodate a vessel's draft and other
conditions, the depth of a navigation channel is typically at least twice that of a boat's draft. For
example, a boat with a draft of 4.5 feet would require a navigation channel depth of at least 9
feet.
lo Although Hatteras Class ferries are currently in use by the NCDOT Ferry Division, these
vessels are no longer being built.
0
Hatteras Class Ferry
Hatteras Class ferries are currently used by the NCDOT Ferry Division on the Hatteras
Inlet route between the village of Hatteras and the northern tip of Ocracoke Island. Historically,
this class of vessel was used in relatively shallow waters. However, the NC Ferry Division
indicates it is no longer being built. As a result, this type of vessel should no longer be
considered under the Ferry Alternative. For purposes of updating the Ferry Alternative vessel
assumption, the remaining options are River Class or Sound Class ferries.

River Class Ferry
River Class ferries are used along several ferry routes: Hatteras Inlet (Hatteras —
Ocracoke); Currituck Sound (Currituck — Knott's Island); Pamlico River (Bayview — Aurora);
Cape Fear River (Southport — Fort Fisher); and the Neuse River (Cherry Branch — Minnesott
Beach). The River Class ferry is gradually replacing the Hatteras Class ferry in NCDOT's
fleet due to its greater vehicular capacity, better maneuverability, and comparable draft depth
and cruising speed.

�� _ �, _
11
Sound Class Ferry
Sound Class ferries are used in Pamlico Sound for the Ocracoke to Cedar Island and the
Ocracoke to Swan Quarter routes. Although Sound Class ferries have a higher vehicular
capacity and cruising speed than either the Hatteras Class or River Class ferries, they are less
maneuverable and have a greater draft depth than that of a River Class ferry.
As a result of the limitations noted above, the NCDOT Ferry Division advised FHWA
that, based on the models currently in NCDOT's fleet, the River Class ferry is the vessel that
should be used in a conceptual analysis of the Ferry Alternative because the prime tradeoffs (e.g.,
the environmental damage and expenses of dredging) are more severe with the Sound Class
ferry. It is important to note that the water depth in Pamlico Sound in the general B-2500 project
area is shallower than in the areas where Sound Class ferries are currently utilized by the
NCDOT Ferry Division.
C. Location of Ferry Route
As previously studied, the conceptual location for a ferry route in the B-2500 project area
had ferry terminals located on Bodie Island to the north and Hatteras Island to the south.
Through the evolution of the NEPA process, the northern ferry terminal remained north of the
Oregon Inlet Marina complex on Bodie Island; the southern terminal, however, was relocated
from the northern end of Hatteras Island within the boundaries of Pea Island National Wildlife
Refuge ("Refuge") to a point south of the Refuge within the village of Rodanthe. As previously
12
explained herein, the southern ferry terminal was relocated based on the results of environmental
studies on Hatteras Island. These studies revealed that: (i) it would be diff'icult to maintain and
stabilize the required ferry navigation channel in a cross-current direction across Oregon Inlet;
(ii) continuous maintenance dredging of the navigation channel would be likely in order to
maintain the route across Oregon Inlet; and (iii) moving the ferry terminal to Rodanthe would
alleviate the difficulties of maintaining NC 12 through the Refuge. The relocation of the ferry
terminal to Rodanthe resulted in an increase in the length of the ferry route from 3 miles (Bodie
Island — Refuge) to almost 18 miles (Bodie Island — Rodanthe). See Appendix C for a figure
showing the location of a conceptual ferry route from Bodie Island to Rodanthe.
FHWA conferred with the NCDOT Ferry Division to revisit the route location, based in
part on scoping comments from the Southern Environmental Law Center suggesting a potential
route from the mainland to Hatteras Island or a combination of routes from Bodie Island and the
mainland to multiple points on Hatteras Island.
A route from the mainland to Hatteras Island would not meet the purposes and needs of
B-2500. It would not satisfy the basic need for convenient daily and emergency access across
Oregon Inlet. Correspondingly, it fails to satisfy a basic purpose to provide a new means of
access from Bodie Island to Hatteras Island. Despite this flaw, FHWA nevertheless asked the
NC Ferry Division to locate a theoretical route from the mainland to Hatteras Island. See
Appendix C for the conceptual location of this route. Based on information received from the
NCDOT Ferry Division, such a route would likely have some potential advantages over a Bodie
Island to Hatteras Island route, including:
• Existing terminal facilities at Stumpy Point and Rodanthe could be used,
although substantial expansions would be required;
• A route from Stumpy Point to Rodanthe would traverse deeper water
toward the center of Pamlico Sound than a Bodie Island to Rodanthe
route, reducing the amount of dredging required to create and maintain a
navigation channel. It is likely the entire length of the route from Bodie
Island to Rodanthe would require dredging due to shallow water depths
relative to vessel draft; and
• Constructing/expanding at least one of the route terminals on the mainland
could be less expensive than locating both terminals on barrier islands due
to land cost.
Despite some technical advantages of a Stumpy Point to Rodanthe route, the high-cost items
(ferry vessels, ferry crew, loading dock and maintenance personnel, shipyard/vessel
maintenance) would remain similar to a Bodie Island to Rodanthe route. More importantly, the
purpose and need for the project cannot be met by this route. Hence, FHWA and NCDOT
13
developed conclusions based on a conceptual Ferry route connecting Bodie Island directly to
Hatteras Island.
VL Conclusions For The Updated Ferrv Alternative From Bodie Island To Hatteras
Island Using Conventional Vessels
A. Traffic Service
Previous NEPA studies for the B-2500 Project concluded that a Ferry Alternative from
Bodie Island to Hatteras Island could not serve the current or future traffic demand of Hatteras
Island based on a maximum safe operating capacity analysis (see FEIS at 2-23). That maximum
safe operating capacity analysis assumed ferry operations within only one navigation channel.
The FEIS acknowledged that an additional ferry route could be operated in tandem with the
conceptual route be�ween Bodie Island and Rodanthe, but concluded that such a route would not
be viable due to the increased need for ferry vessels and the additional dredging necessary to
maintain a second navigation channel.
Some scoping comments suggested that conditions under which previous analysis was
conducted may have changed after the impact of Hurricane Irene. FHWA and NCDOT have
found no evidence to suggest, even post-Hurricane Irene, that traffic demand to access Hatteras
Island will decrease over the long term. Refer to Section V. A. of this document for a discussion
of current traffic demand and FHWA's conclusion.
Although the NC Ferry Division provided cost estimates for transporting 1 million
vehicles per year across Oregon Inlet to Rodanthe, identified as Alternate A(Appendix E), this
could only be a stand-alone solution from a traffic service standpoint if one assumes that traffic
demand to/from Hatteras Island will decrease by approximately one-half in the future. This
assumption is not reasonable considering the past decade of actual traffic that has crossed Bonner
Bridge. FHWA and NCDOT have concluded that conditions have not changed since Hurricane
Irene such that Alternate A is realistic.
Alternate B(i.e., transporting 2 million vehicles per year) is a more realistic traffic
demand scenario for further analysis given the long-term consistency of traffic demand over the
past decade and the continued requests for access to Hatteras Island by its residents, visitors, and
government leadership. The actual traffic service provided by Bonner Bridge has averaged 1.8
million vehicles per year between years 2001 and 2011, with upward and downward fluctuations.
Although Alternate B, by definition, meets present demand for access between Hatteras
Island and the Bodie Island, it would still have serious flaws related to the stated purpose and
need of the project. Diminished convenience to motorists would be expected due to ferry
14
capacity constraints. Some motorists would be forced to structure their trips to avoid peak travel
times or to forego travel between Hatteras Island and Bodie Island altogether. Provision of
emergency and medical services would be impacted, emergency evacuation times increased, and
public services such as waste management would be altered. These conclusions were reached in
previous NEPA documents regarding a Ferry alternative and remain valid for an alternative
using state of the industry conventional ferry vessels.
The NC Ferry Division estimates that it would need 38 River Class vessels on each day
of the year to ferry a total of 2 million vehicles. Adding this many vessels would more than
double the number of vessels currently in use by the NC Ferry Division.
B. Cost for Bodie Island to Rodanthe route carrying 2 Million Vehicles per year
Previous NEPA documents concluded the Ferry Alternative would be substantially more
expensive than other transportation alternatives that were under consideration. FHWA requested
that NCDOT revisit the Ferry Alternative to determine if this conclusion was still valid for
conventional ferry vessels based on current information for updated assumptions described in
Section V. As detailed in Appendix D, the total estimated cost for installing, operating, and
maintaining a ferry system that will service the current traffic demand for the first year is $664
million. Each year after, normal annual recurring costs are estimated to be $94.5 million over
the 50-year estimated life of the B-2500 project. If this route were to be operated and maintained
at the current traff�ic carrying capacity for 50 years, the total estimated cost rises to $6.3 billion.
These costs include the vessels, crew, docks, supporting facilities (including a new shipyard),
terminal basin dredging", maintenance, and vessel replacement at 30 years.
From this information, FHWA and NCDOT have concluded, once again, that the Ferry
Alternative would be substantially more expensive than any other transportation alternatives
under consideration. FHWA also notes that if a ferry service were divided between multiple
origins and destinations as one commenter suggested, the cost of the service would not be
reduced in that the same quantities of personnel and equipment would be required. In fact, it is
likely that costs would increase due to the provision and maintenance of multiple ferry channels.
C. Dredging
Previous NEPA documents had concluded that the Ferry alternative would have
significant impacts on the natural environment due to the extensive dredging necessary to create
and maintain the ferry channel and basins. FHWA and NCDOT reexamined this conclusion in
light of any potential updates that may have been needed due to advances in conventional ferries
" The NCDOT Ferry Division included only estimated dredging costs for the basins and
immediate approach channels. The estimates do not include costs for dredging the main
navigation channels, which have historically been borne by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

or changes to the conceptual route. Although a Hatteras Class vessel was assumed for the Ferry
Alternative in previous NEPA documents, the NC Ferry Division now advises that a River Class
vessel would be used along this route. Regardless of the change in vessel, the required channel
depth remains within the range of 10-12 feet in the main channel and approaches, with deeper
dredging required in the ferry basins. Previous analysis had already accounted for extending the
ferry route from a total length of approximately 3 miles to a total length of approximately 18
miles to bypass areas prone to breach and overwash between northern Pea Island and Rodanthe.
It is still expected the dredging needed to construct and maintain an 18-mile long route
from the Oregon Inlet Marina Complex (Bodie Island) to Rodanthe would significantly and
permanently impact submerged aquatic vegetation and habitat, shallow water habitat, primary and
secondary nursery areas, and shell bottom habitat. Previous analysis and conclusions listed in
Section II of this report would remain substantively unchanged.
VII. Consideration Of Other Ferry Vessels and Options
A. High Speed Ferries
During the scoping process for Phase II of B-2500, some government agencies and
members of the public suggested that advances in high speed, high capacity ferries could
potentially make the Ferry Alternative competitive with other options studied in detail in the
previous NEPA documents. FHWA conducted research on specific vessels suggested by
commenters and further expanded its research to other high speed ferry vessels in use in the
United States and internationally. Relevant statistics on specific watercraft are included in
Appendix F.
Quadrimaran high-speed ferries of similar vehicle-carrying capacity to NCDOT's River
Class conventional vessels (38 vehicles), such as the CNM Evolution (Quebec, Canada, 30
vehicles) and Lake Express Ferry (Wisconsin-Michigan, 46 vehicles), have drafts of 5 feet and
8.3 feet, respectively. These draft depths are equal to or greater than the draft depths for
conventional vessels currently used by the NC Ferry Division. As well, the recommended
channel depths would lilcely be greater than those for conventional vessels to safely
accommodate the higher cruising speed.
Other high-speed vehicle ferries with greater vehicle-carrying capacities (up to 341
vehicles) were researched by FHWA. All had draft depths ranging between 7.8 feet and 13.75
feet, notably deeper than a conventional River Class ferry vessel. Large expanses of Pamlico
Sound on the western side of Hatteras Island have water depths less than 10 feet. Because the
draft depths and required channel depths for high-speed ferries equal or exceed those for
conventional vessels, the expected dredging requirements for these vessels make further
consideration unreasonable. FHWA is unaware of the existence of any vessel that meets all of
the necessary requirements in the area (e.g., shallow draft, high-speed, and capability of carrying
large volumes of cars and trucks). After examining the data gathered, FHWA has concluded that
16
advances in high speed, high capacity ferries have not yet reached a level that would make a
Ferry Alternative competitive with other options in the B-2500 project area.i�
B. Passenger-Only Ferries13
It was suggested during the B-2500 scoping phase that passenger-only high speed ferries
should be considered as an alternative. FHWA and NCDOT, however, have concluded that
passenger-only vessels are not a reasonable full-service transportation alternative given the rural
character of the towns and villages along North Carolina's Outer Banks. Some commenters
referred to passenger ferries that are used in New York City and Seattle, Washington as
examples of viable passenger ferry concepts. In those metropolitan areas, the transportation
infrastructure beyond the ferry terminals (e.g., mass transit, taxi service, sidewalks, etc.) make
passenger ferries a viable means of transportation for urban residents. New York City and
Seattle also benefit from multiple other modes of access (rail, seaports, roadway, and large
airports). The character, development, resources, and transportation infrastructure of the Outer
Banks stands in stark contrast to that of areas where passenger-only systems are successful.
12 It should be noted that the River Class ferries currently used in Pamlico Sound by the NCDOT
Ferry Division are among the lowest draft vessels available. These watercraft have a lower draft
(and, as a result, require less dredging) than any of the high speed ferry vessels suggested by
others or researched by FHWA.
13 During the course of this reassessment, FHWA was made aware of the existence of two
documents from May 1994: (i) "A Preliminary Analysis of the Feasibility of Operating High-
Speed Passenger Ferries on the Rivers and Sounds of Northeastern North Carolina"
("Preliminary Analysis"); and (ii) the "Executive Summary" of the Preliminary Analysis.
Neither document impacts any decisions made by FHWA regarding the Ferry Alternative. Both
documents were commissioned by the Office of Tourism Development, Northeastern North
Carolina Economic Development Commission ("Office of Tourism"), and a stated purpose of the
Preliminary Analysis was to determine if high speed passenger ferries could be used to support
tourism and leisure activities. As the Preliminary Analysis makes clear, "the use of high-speed
car carrying vessels have not been factored into this preliminary feasibility analysis ... [and] this
type of vessel has not yet been built in the United States and is, therefore, outside the purview of
this Report." Thus, the Preliminary Analysis does not help solve the transportation need which
is the focus of project B-2500: the demand for vehicular access between Hatteras and Bodie
Islands. Further, the examples of high-speed ferry operations in the Preliminary Analysis all are
centered in metropolitan areas (i.e., New York, Seattle, San Francisco, San Pedro, Long Beach,
San Diego, and Michigan). None of these then-working ferry systems are truly comparable to the
human and natural environments of the Outer Banks. Further, the Preliminary Analysis supports
the concerns shared by FHWA and NCDOT about environmental damage due to dredging (i.e., it
was determined that water depths on the western shore of the Outer Banks were generally too
shallow for navigation and that extensive dredging would be required if new ferry terminal sites
were to be established in that area).
17
Hatteras Island needs a way to not only deliver people to the island, but also freight, equipment,
durable goods, supplies, food, commercial products, etc. As a result, FHWA and NCDOT have
concluded passenger-only ferries would not meet the transportation needs of the travelling public
along the Outer Banks.
C. Privatized Ferry System
During the scoping process, it was suggested that a privately owned and operated ferry
system should be considered by the agencies because the costs of new ferry technologies would
be borne by the private sectar, not the government. It is not reasonable to presume that a private
ferry system could provide the needed capacity to service the entire system of villages that exist
on Hatteras Island without encountering the environmental and economic challenges (e.g.,
extensive dredging and extraordinarily high costs) attributable to the Ferry Alternative and
explained herein.
If private operators provided a ferry system, they would expect to make a profit. If they
could not, the ferry service would need to be subsidized by the state of North Carolina. To meet
the 50-year cost of transporting two million vehicles per year via ferry (ie., $6.3 billion) and
without factoring in any profit margin, the average one-way ferry trip would cost $63 per
motorist ($126 round trip). The highest price North Carolina currently charges for a ferry trip
by a passenger vehicle is $15 one way or $30 round trip.
VIII. Conclusion
In light of the foregoing analysis, it is the conclusion of FHWA and NCDOT that the use
of ferries to meet the transportation needs of Hatteras Island remains an unreasonable
transportation alternative for Project B-2500.
