U.S. Geological Survey
Project Proposal
The applicant proposes to place five conductivity meters in Beaufort County
in Campbell Creek between the NC 33 Bridge (where one existing meter is located)
and the confluence of Campbell Creek with Goose Creek. This is a project of
the Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine Study. The five proposed conductivity meters
are to be spaced equal distances apart and are to be located near the middle
of Campbell Creek at all five locations. Four meters will be installed in the
inland waters of Campbell Creek and one in estuarine or commercial waters as
designated in the NC Division of Marine Fisheries regulations.
The conductivity meters are to be placed in six inch diameter, fourteen foot long
PVC pipes with the pipe to extend approximately 4' above normal water level. The
average water depth for the pipes' placement is six feet. Navigation safety re-
flectors are to be affixed to the five pipes. The applicant proposes to jet the
pipes in using a pressure pump.
There are no objections to the project as proposed based upon CAMA regulations,
however, it is very important that the reflector be affixed to the pipe so the
pipes can be easily seen by traditional navigation.
