Peer Exchange Meeti ng
Agenda

Bonner Bridge Replacement Project
Phase II NC 12 Transportation Management Plan
Peer Exchange Meeting
Proposed Agenda
October 24 and 25, 2011
NCDOT Century Center, Raleigh NC
Bldg. A, Structure Design Conference Room
Purposes:
• Evaluate the changes in coastal conditions (shoreline position, dune stability, habitat) that
resulted from Hurricane Irene;
• Identify issues, constraints, and concerns associated with the future maintenance of NC 12; and
• Provide engineering advice on design parameters for long-term transportation options at the
two breach sites.
Expected Outcomes:
• Identification of changes to the project area as a result of Hurricane Irene;
• Evaluation of how changes to the project area impact area habitat;
• Evaluation of previous project area studies;
• Recommendations on design parameters for long-term options at both breach sites; and
• Recommendations on how NCDOT should conduct future coastal studies in the project area.
Monday, October 24, 1:OOpm-S:OOpm
1:00 Welcome and Introductions
1:10 Purpose of Meeting
1:30 Overview of Bonner Bridge Replacement Project studies
• General project description
• Coastal conditions/ shoreline erosion analyses
• Natural resources assessment
• Alternatives developed
• Summary of NC 12 repairs following Hurricane Irene
2:00 Panel Discussion- Post-Irene Project Area Conditions
• What are the main changes to the project area?
• What aspects of the storm caused these changes?
• What are the long-term implications to the project area?
• How do these changes impact habitat within the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge?
Breaks will be incorporated during this session as needed.
