Enclosed is a 'completed Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) form requesting a Water Quality Certification for the proposed reestablishment of a disposal area waterward of the Atlantic Harbor of Refuge, in Atlantic, Carteret County, North Carolina. The material used to reestablish the Island will come from the maintenance dredging of federally maintained channels into the Atlantic Harbor, located east south, and west of the.disposal area in Core Sound. As stated in the PCN, similar projects have been conducted in the past. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, has determined that the reestablishment of the disposal area is consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program and has received concurrence with this determination from the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management by email dated May 15, 2006. All conditions of the issued water quality certification will be included in the project's plans and specifications and will be complied with in full. To be prepared to open bidding and to obtain the best prices, plans and specifications will soon be finalized. Therefore, should you foresee any requirement for additional information, or a possible delay in issuance of the certification, please advise us so we may plan accordingly. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Jeff Richter, Environmental Resources Section, by email at Jeffrey.h.richter@usace.army.mil or by telephone at (910) 251-4636.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Project involves maintenance dredging of existing federally authorized navigation channels Disposal is within previously authorized disposal area which used to be high ground before Hurricane Onhelia washed a portion of the wit away in 2005 The high-ground spit protects the entrance to the Atlantic Harbor VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Updated 11/1/2005 Page 10 of 13 Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at hqp://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/ncwetlands/stnnizide.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. No mitigation is necessary as the project involves maintenance dredging and reestablishment of a high ground disposal site 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form.
