Box 1890 Wilmington, N.C. 28402-1890 Dear Mr. Long: RE: Rapid removal of Isolated Shoals in Bogue Inlet Carteret County I have received your fax of 30 July 1992 concerning rapid removal of a shoal which has developed in Bogue Inlet. The Corps plans to conduct sidecast dredging to remove the shoal. The Division of Environmental Management does not foresee any water quality related problems`from this dredging. Therefore the dredging is approved under our Emergency Dredging Water Quality Certification (Number 1333 issued June 18, 1979). Please call me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions. ly, 4tJh1n cere R.

Dredging will be performed in accordance with the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, and the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (DEHNR), for the rapid removal of isolated shoals by sidecast dredging in connecting channel of New River Inlet and Bogue Inlet, Onslow and Carteret Counties, North Carolina. The MOA was signed by the DEHNR on October 24, 1991, and by the Wilmington District on November 6, 1990. The attached hydrographic survey (attachment 2), dated July 23, 1992, shows shoaling has reduced navigable depths in the vicinity of buoy 9A to less than the authorized depth of 6 feet mean low water (6-feet mean low water (m.l.w.) plus two feet of overdepth). Several complaints have been received by telephone from users of the New River Inlet connecting channel (Swan Point Marina and New River Marina) that shoaling is preventing safe passage of vessels. We propose to conduct maintenance dredging to remove the isolated shoal starting the week of August 3, 1992. Approximately 4,000 cubic yards of material will be dredged and placed alongside of the channel. The work will be accomplished by use of the Government sidecast dredge FRY. Dredging will occur only within the previously dredged boundary of the connecting channel and to an authorized depth of 8 feet m.l.w. Removal of the shoal will be done in conjunction with the ongoing maintenance dredging of the New River ocean bar channel which will take approximately 30 days. Dredging of the connecting channel will be performed when conditions prevent the sidecast dredge from operating on the ocean bar channel. In accordance with the MOA, a post-dredging survey and a letter report will be forwarded to the State once the work has been completed. A copy of this notice letter is being FAXed to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management notifying them of the need to perform sidecast dredging in the New River inlet connecting channel and to request their concurrence. If you need any additional information on the above matter, please call Mr. Daniel Small, Environmental Resources Branch, at (919) 251-4730- Sincerely, Coleman Long, Chief Environmental Resources Branch Copy furnished (with attachments): Mr. John Dorney Division of Environmental Management North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources Post Office Box 27687 Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687 JUL 31 '92 08:23AM US CORPS ENGINEERS WILM NC P.1 WSIMIL.E TRANSMITTAL HEADER SHEET fa wn d Chu lane. sw Ap ? 11.

The Wilmington District is proposing to maintain the connecting channel to Bogue Inlet (attachment 1). 2. The most recent survey of the Bogue Inlet connecting channel, dated September 14, 1992, shows a shoal in the channel in the vicinity of buoy 1119V (attachment 2). The shoal has reduced navigable depths in this section of the channel to less than - 2 feet mean low water (mlw). The authorized navigable depth of the Bogue Inlet Channel is -6 feet mlw with a width of 90 feet. The U.S. Coast Guard is aware of the problem and is unable to improve the situation by relocation of navigation aids. Coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard Swansboro Station, indicates that they are contemplating closing the channel due to the shoal. 3. The shoal in the vicinity of buoy 1119A" falls within the section of the channel covered under the 1990 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the North Carolina Department of Environment, health, and Natural Resources, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, for Rapid Removal of Isolated Shoals by Sidecast Dredging in Connecting Channels of new River Inlet and Bogue Inlet, Onslow and Carteret County, North Carolina. 4. At this time, the depth of the channel in the shoaled area prohibits use of a sideoast dredge or the special purpose hopper dredge CURRITUCK due to less than adequate depths across the shoal that prevent safe passage of these vessels. Use of a hydraulic pipeline dredge is not feasible due to high mobilization cost (e.g., not cost effective) and the small quantity of material to be removed. Therefore, the District is proposing to remove the shoal using a bed leveler. 5. Creation of a navigable channel across the shoal with a bed leveler would involve towing a 20-foot wide steel I-beam with a small tugboat. A channel approximately 4,500 feet long at a depth of -6 feet mlw would be created across the shoal, Approximately 4,000 cubic yards of of predominately fine to medium grain sand need to be removed in order to create a channel across the shoal. The material resuspended by the I-beam being towed along the bottom is expected to move into deeper waters seaward of the shoal or be carried out of the inlet. Depths seaward of the shoal averages between -9 to -12 feet mlw. The work would be restricted to the immediate channel alignment, and would be done during ebb tide so as to allow ebb currents to move suspended i V SEP 21 192 Oe:48AM US CORPS ENGINEERS WILM NC P.3 sediments seaward into deeper waters. Creation of a navigable channel across the shoal using the bed leveler is expected to take approximately 1-2 days. 6. Turbidity increases associated with the operation are expected to be temporary and any increases being restricted to the immediate area where leveling is occurring. Documentation of the operation will be done to assess effectiveness and efficiency of this type of equipment. 7. We would like to commence the work no sooner that September 24 or 25, 1992. Therefore, if possible we would like to receive your concurrence by September 23, 1992. If you need any additional information on the above matter, please call Daniel Small, U.S. Army Engineer District, Wilmington, Environmental Resources Branch, at (919) 251-4730.
