PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to place 6 cluster dolphins up and downstream of the Core Creek Bridge, in the AIWW. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - TEXASGULF, INC., CARTERET COUNTY PAGE_ #2 t 9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: Texasgulf, Inc. is requesting a permit to place a total of six (6) temporary cluster dolphins in the AIWW, near the Core Creek Bridge, in Carteret County. Three (3) of the cluster dolphins will be placed approximately 1800' north of the existing bridge and on the east side of the channel, while the other three (3) will be located approximately 3,900' south of the bridge and on the west side of the channel. Each dolphin will consist of approximately 19 pilings and will be located at the toe of the Federally maintained channel in approximately -12' (MLW) of water. The purpose of the project is to provide a temporary staging area so that only one barge at a time will be pushed through this area of Core Creek since the new bridge construction is restricting normal navigation through the area. After one barge is pushed through, it will be temporarily moored at one set of dolphins until the tug boat can go back and retrieve the second barge which will be at the other mooring area. The applicant has indicated that once the high-rise bridge is completed, the mooring dolphins will be removed. It is estimated that this will be within approximately two (2) years. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The project as proposed will result in the placement of six (6) cluster pilings on the channel's edge of the Federally maintained AIWW. Approximately 114 sq. ft. of bottom area will be displaced with the placement of the mooring dolphins. Once the high-rise bridge is completed, all pilings will be removed. Since the development is being undertaken along the channel's edge of the AIWW, it will be extremely important to have appropriate markings on the structures to prevent them from becoming a navigational hazard.
