8 PROJECT SUMMARY: Applicant proposes to dredge a 375' X 20' X -4'
channel through a sand bar at the mouth of a man-made canal on Bells
Island, Currituck Sound, Currituck Co. Applicant also proposes a
350' ietty on the north side of the channel to prevent silting of the
channel. No wetlands will be impacted. The spoil will be deposited
an upland agricultural pasture.

BIO REPORT
PAGE 2
SITE REPORT
The applicant, George Hackworth is Chairman of the Bells
Island Canal Committee and has obtained permission from the
property owner, Mr. Robert E. Ferrell to work on his property.
The property is an entirely upland pasture dominated by lawn
grasses and fescue. A shallow sand bar extends out 300 feet from
the bulkhead and blocks access to a man-made canal. No submerged
aquatic vegetation was located on this bar in the 1984
photographs.
Applicant proposes to dredge a navigation channel 375' X 20'
X -4' from the mouth of the main Bells Island canal east across a
sand bar into Currituck Sound. This channel will allow access to
an existing man-made canal at all but the lowest water levels.
To prevent filling of the channel by sand, Spencer M. Rogers,
Coastal Engineer with UNC Sea Grant, has recommended that a low
jetty be built along the north side of the channel out several
hundred feet. A deteriorated 100' jetty currently exists. This
jetty will be replaced by a 350' jetty. All spoil from the
dredging operation will be deposited on adjoining property in an
upland field.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
Dredging of the channel will alter 7500 sq. ft. of shallow
water habitat. Construction of the 350' jetty may present a
limited hazard to navigation. The shallow water in the area and
existing 300' piers 1300 ft. to the north and 3500' to the south
should lessen this danger. The jetty will be marked with
reflectors
