Fill Material
Tires will be dumped both randomly and in specific locations
within the proposed site. The tires will be cut, strapped together
in bundles and dumped. The tire units have been bound together in
two ways one with iron rebar, the other with nylon rope. Buoys
will be provided at all four corners of the rectangular reef site
and the tire units at the sites will be anchored. This will be
accomplished by having eight or nine units tied together with
nylon rope attached to a tire filled with concrete. In addition
there will be an outer perimeter of tires bound together with
nylon rope to serve as an impoundment with the tires anchored at
each end utilizing tires filled with concrete. The anchored units
as discussed above will be contained within the impoundment. The
site will have at least seven foot of clearance from the surface
of the water to the top of the tire units to allow for boat
navigation. Below is a typical configuration of a tire unit.

1. Project summary The applicant is proposing to construct an artificial fishing reef
with tires. Location - north of Howards Reef - Loran C - 27008.5, 40135.1
w
Environmental setting
The proposed project site is as follows:
(1) North of Howards Reef
(2) 1 1/2 miles northeast of old dredge at mouth of Big Foot Channel
(3) 220 degrees from site to dredge
(4) 040 degrees fran dredge to site
(5) Loran C 27008.5
40135.1
The site is in 15 feet of water and has a substrate of mud with no aquatic vegetation.
No oyster rocks are anticipated to be present.
Project proposal
The applicant is proposing to construct a public artificial fishing reef from tire
units as has been used at other reef sites by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries.
The reef will be 1500' long by 400' wide. A water clearance of 7' will be maintained
above reef for navigation. The reef will be properly marked by buoys at each corner.
Environmental impacts
If the project is conducted as proposed, no wetland vegetation will be excavated
or filled. The project should have a minimal environmental impact.

Fill Material
Tires will be dumped both randomly and in specific locations
within the proposed site. The tires will be cut, strapped together
in bundles and dumped. The tire units have been bound together in
two ways one with iron rebar, the other with nylon rope. Buoys
will be provided at all four corners of the rectangular reef site
and the tire.units at the sites will be anchored. This will be
accomplished by having eight or nine units tied together with
nylon rope attached to a.tire filled with concrete. In addition
there will be an outer perimeter of tires bound together with
nylon rope to serve as an impoundment with the tires anchored at
each end utilizing tires filled with concrete. The anchored units
as discussed above will be contained within the impoundment. The
site will have at least seven foot of clearance from the surface
of the water to the top of the tire units to allow for boat
navigation. Below is a typical configuration of a tire unit.

Gentlemen:
On January 27, 1981, we issued general permit No. SAWC080-N-
000-0291 (enclosed), which provides Federal authorization for
construction activities that receive authorization from the State
of North Carolina.
A review of your application received May 13, 1985, for a
Department of the Army permit to place fill material in Pamlico
Sound to establish an artificial fishing reef, north of Howard's
Reef, Hyde County, North Carolina, indicates it to be a candidate
for Federal authorization under this general permit.
Accordingly, the administrative processing of your application
will be accomplished by the North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management. Comments from Federal review agencies will be
furnished to the State.
If your application must be withdrawn from this general
permit process for any reason, you will be written and informed
of its further management. If there are no unresolved
differences of State-Federal positions or policy, the final
action taken on your application by the State will result in your
receiving written notice from us that your application has been
successfully processed under our general permit. Only after
receiving such confirmation should you begin work.
Your application, pursuant to Section 10 of the River and
Harbor Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, has been

Enclosed is the application of Hyde County for a Department
of the Army permit and a State Water Quality Certification to
construct an artificial fishing reef in Pamlico Sound, north of
Howard's Reef, Hyde County, North Carolina. Your receipt of this
letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for
certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our
administrative regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A
Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the
certification has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by July 15, 1985, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.

Fill Material
Tires will be dumped both randomly and in specific locations
within the proposed site. The tires will be cut; strapped together
in bundles and dumped. The tire units have been bound together in
two ways one with iron rebar, the other with nylon rope. Buoys
will be provided at all four corners of the rectangular reef site
and the tire units at the sites will be anchored. This will be
accomplished by having eight or nine units tied together with
nylon rope attached to a tire filled with concrete. In addition
there will be an outer perimeter of tires bound together with
nylon rope to serve as an impoundment with the tires anchored at
each end utilizing tires filled with concrete. The anchored units
as discussed above will be contained within the imvoundme.nt. The
site will have at least seven foot of clearance from the surface
of the water to the top of the tire units to allow for boat
navigation. Below is a typical configuration of a tire unit.

Buoying System for Artificial Reefs
Each reef will be marked with a minimum of four Spar buoys
with one buoy located at each corner. Each buoy will be anchored
by use of a tractor tiro filled with concrete.
Euovs will be five (5) feet in length and ten (10) inches
in diameter with three (3) feet of the buoy above the watt-r line.
buovs will be white in color with "Artificial Reef" marked
i:: red letters, and c•:ill have white reflective tape markings
to assist in identification..
