9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located within the town limits of the Town of Kure Beach.
Ocean front areas within the town have experienced significant erosion as a
result of the storms which occurred in December of 1986 and January of 1987.
There were approximately 52 structures which became threatened as a result of
these storms. An erosion escapement has developed which is as much as 8' in
height.
The Town proposes to push or bulldoze sand from the forebeach area
beginning at the low water line to establish the pre-storm slope.
Approximately 8208 linear feet will be affected. The material will be moved
toward the toe of the existing escapement and will be placed up to 25' wide
and a maximum of 8' high to create a new slope approximating the pre-storm
conditions.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The project as proposed will result in short-term siltation and sedimentation
problems. The major impact will be the affect of the project on sea-turtle
nesting. At the present time the existing water run-up would cover nesting
sites during spring high tide periods. The project should eventually provide
a slope more conducive to nesting activities.

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of the Town of Kure Beach for a
Department of the Army permit and a State Water Quality
Certification to push and grade beach sand, between the mean low
and high water elevation contours along approximately 8,200 linear
feet of Atlantic Ocean beach, Kure Beach, New Hanover 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 May 4, 1987, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Hugh Heine,
telephone [phone].
