Subject:Carteret Bridge 6 and 68 maintenance
Jay,
I’ve reviewed your application requesting a Corps NW 3 and NW 25 for the repair and maintenance of Bridge Nos. 6 and
68 over Bogue Sound in Carteret County. Water Quality Certification No. 3883 is issue for these activities. Written
approval is not required for use of this certification provided all the conditions can be met. If any of the conditions
cannot be met, written approval may be required. Please pay particular attention to Condition No. 9 which states, “If
concrete is used during construction, then all necessary measures shall be taken to prevent direct contact between
uncured or curing concrete and waters of the state. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall not be
discharged to waters of the state due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life/fish kills.”
Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Garcy
