Revision to Olde Point Associates CAMA Application
Pender County
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Please find the attached Regional Office
comments dated September 4, 1992, as well as the Memorandum from
Tere Barrett (DCM) dated January 6, 1993 concerning the revised
plan for the bridge construction project. This office objected
to the original proposal to replace the current structure over
Nixon Creek with a concrete box culvert. The current proposal is
to replace the existing structure with a three span bridge which
would widen the current opening by 6'.
The project has been reviewed to determine impacts to water
quality. The following comments have been provided.
The project should meet the requirements of General
Certification #2665 for Bank Stabilization.
This office has no objection to the project as proposed.

Memorandum
To: Review Agencies
From: T. Barrett 4/
Thru: Bob Stroud
Please find enclosed a revised plat and narrative concerning the
state application for Olde Point Associates. The original
application was to replace the present bridge with a large culvert,
reducing navigation and upstream flow by approximately 30%.
The application has been on hold by applicant since receiving many
negative comments.
The modification to this application eliminates the culvert, and
replaces the present bridge with a three span bridge totalling 90'
in length. The piles straddle the navigable channel, increasing
this area by 6' from that currently available between the bridge
abutments. The new proposal also opens the area landward of the
current abutments to extreme tides by grading the high ground area
back from the abutments for 30' on either side, and placing rip
rap.
This proposal not only eliminates the negative impacts from the
previous proposal, but lessens the impacts from the existing
structure.
Please review these changes, and comment to John Parker.

re: Revision and Re-submittal of Olde Point Associates Nixon Creek
Bridge Replacement Plan for a CAMA Major Permit.
Dear Tere:
In light of the negative comments your agency has received
concerning the large culvert alternative initially proposed by the
applicant, an elevated three span bridge plan has been prepared
which should satisfy all the relevant concerns of the review
agencies. This redesign maintains the existing navigation height
of the existing bridge but widens the channel width by 6 ft. at the
mean high water line. The intertidal area below spring high tides
will be wider by 16 ft. Also, this revised bridge concept will be
able to handle nearly 2.5 times the storm water volumes compared to
the existing bridge design. The rock rip-rap will also assist in
marine organism attachment.
As can be seer_ from the attached plan the top width of the existing
single span bridge shall expand from 24 ft. to 90 ft. for the 3
span structure. The intertidal bottom width shall expand from 24
ft. to 30 ft. The old wooden creosote bulkhead shall be cut off
slightly above the MLW mark and be replaced with a 2:1 sloped clean
rock rip-rap revetment over filter "X" cloth. All denuded slopes
shall be stabilized in this manner and a temporary silt fence shall
be installed along the MHW line above wetland vegetation. All of
the old bulkhead sheet piles, deadmen, old debris and excavated
causeway soil shall be removed off site to an upland area.
Please circulate this revision to the review agencies for their
comments. With a 'quick review it is hoped that the old structure
can be removed before April 1st. It is hoped the new structure
will enhance tidal flushing and the overall environmental quality
of Nixon Creek.

RECOM41INDED CONDITIONS OR PERMIT RESTRICTIONS :
It is recommended that the project as proposed be denied.
When the existing bridge over Nixon Creek was constructed
approximately 57,000 sq. ft. of regularly flooded salt marsh was
filled for the causeways and the main run of the creek appears?to
have been constricted by approximately 50%-. The current proposal
would further reduce the main run of Nixon Creek by an additional
30W and would result in the filling of 1906 sq. ft. of Primary
Nursery Area bottom habitat. This filling would remove the
existing use of this area as a Primary Nursery Area in violation
of 15A NCAC 2B .0201. The further restriction of flow in Nixon
Creek could potentially adversely impact upstream flushing
characteristics of the creek. It is recommended that at the very
least the applicants should replace the existing structure with a
similar structure. Ideally, widening of the existing bridge span
during construction by removal of causeway fill could potentially
improve water quality in the closed SA waters of Nixon Creek, as
well as create additional shallow bottom habitat.

8. Project Summary The applicant proposes to replace the bridge crossing over Nixon's
Creek on SR 1609 in Olde Point Subdivision.
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is a bridge crossing Nixon's Creek on SR 1609 in Olde Point
Subdivision, north of Hampstead in Pender County. Nixon's Creek is a tributary
to Old Topsail Creek. The waters of the creek are classified SA - ORW by the
Division of Environmental Management. They are designated as Primary Nursery
Area by the Division of Marine Fisheries, and are open to shellfishing. The
Pender County Land Use Plan classifies this area as Conservation. The creek
bottom here is silty, with the presence of oysters.
The Olde Point,Bridge was constructed prior to the passage of the Coastal Area
Management Act. The existing filled causeway is approximately 320' long on the
east side of the bridge, and 160' on the west side of the bridge. The causeway
is approximately 120' in width. The paved roadway is approximately 21' in
width. This causeway is located in a continuous span of Spartina alterniflora
marsh containing intermittent Juncus roemerianus. The span of the bridge is
approximately 24' across. The bridge is elevated approximately 16.5' above the
creek bottom, or approximately 13' above mean high water. The creek enters the
bridge at approximately 50' in width and is immediately reduced to the span
width of 241. The upstream width and flow of the creek appears to* have been
determined by this structure.
The applicant is proposing to replace the bridge. For economic reasons, he
proposes to place a precast concrete structure within the confines of the
existing bridge. The proposed structure is 1718" wide, 66' long, and 14110"
high. The structure will lie inside the bridge span, and will extend beyond
both sides by approximately 211. The structure is similar to a very large
culvert. It will be installed in the creek approximately 4' below the existing
bottom. Compacted fill material will be placed between the walls of the new
structure and the walls of the existing timber bulkheads of the bridge. The
existing gap is approximately 2.5' in width along each side, and 4' over the top
of the structure. The thickness of the proposed structure walls is 10" along
the sides and top, and 24" on the bottom. This leaves an opening of 16' in
width and 12' in height (less the tidal amplitude). Because the structure is
submerged, the navigable opening is approximately 16' wide x 11.51high (once
again, without tides). According to the applicant, there is 2.2' of water depth
under the bridge at mean high water. This depth appears to be the result of the
failed bridge abutments. Sediment has broken through as the walls have
corroded, and has built up to a level where it supports a dense bed of oysters.
This inhibits navigation directly under the bridge. There is a 2' wide run
through the oysters on the east side of the bridge. There appears to be 4' of
mean high water depth here and in the adjacent creek on both sides of the
bridge. This would be eliminated by the placement of the proposed structure.
The structure extends beyond the current bridge boundaries by approximately 21'
on each side. There are to be "wingwall" type structures to prevent the buildup
of silt in the "culvert" openings. The sides of each end will have a wall 2'
in width extending for 20' beyond them. There is to be rip rap placed to the
front and side of each of these wingwalls for erosion control. The four rip rap
structures will approximate 15' in width and 10' in length. The adjacent high
ground will also be filled to support the project. This will involve four areas
approximately 20' x 271.
There are many residential pier structures in the Olde Point area. There
appears to be only one such structure on the upstream side of the bridge
structure.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The width of NixonIs Creek appears to have been established by the placement of
this bridge structure originally. The width is reduced by 50% from the point
where the creek enters the bridge to the immediate upstream side. As one moves
upstream, the low marsh gives way to high marsh as the flow decreases.
Placement of this precast structure rather than another bridge as
currently exists would further restrict the flow of water to the upstream side
of the bridge. As well, the navigable area would be reduced from 16.5' in
height and 23' in width, to 11.5' in height and 16' in width. The height at
high tide would be approximately 9'. This is a 30% reduction in both height and
width. The most navigable area would be eliminated.
The structure itself would fill approximately 1166 square feet of productive
bottom. The supporting wingwalls would fill approximately 160 square feet of
bottom. The rip rap erosion control would fill another 600 square feet of the
same.

Dear Mr. Pinson:
The Division of Environmental Management, Water Quality
Section has reviewed your plans for fill of 1906 square feet of
waters to replace an existing bridge over Nixon's Creek at SR
1609 in Pender County. Based on this review, we have identified
significant uses which would be impacted by this project. These
are the aquatic life uses of the Primary-Nursery Area and SA
waters as well as the potential to magnify existing circulation
problems in Nixon's Creek upstream of the bridge. Furthermore,
insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that
your project must be built as designed. Therefore, we are moving
toward denial of your 401 Certification. Until we receive this
information, we are requesting (by copy of this letter) that
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of
Coastal Management place your project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position
that your project must be constructed in wetlands. Specifically
can you construct your bridge without further narrowing Nixon's
Creek or (preferably) making a shorter causeway than now exists?
Any documentation such as maps and narrative which you can supply
to address alternative road designs may be helpful in our review
of your 401 Certification. Please respond within two weeks of
the date of this letter.

Dear Mr. Parker:
Reference the application of Olde Point Associates, represented by
Mr. Norman Pinson, for a Department Of the Army permit to replace a bridge
over Nixon's creek on S.R. 166099OldePoint Subdivision near F
Pender County, North Carolina. .ampstead,
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by
the application and your field investigation report.
we recommend that the following conditions be included in the State
authorization:
a. As Nixon's Creek is both an outstanding resource water and a primary
nursery area, the horizonal clearence of the old bridge, 24 feet, will be
maintained so as not to constrict tidal influence or natural ingress and,
egress of aquatic organisms.
b. In order to avoid periods of peak biological activity, no work will be
accomplished between the dates of April 1 and September 30 of any year without
the prior approval of the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management.
c. No vegetated wetlands will be excavated or filled.
d. The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants except in
trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials, or unsightly debris will
not be used.
e. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and
in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The permittee is
not relieved of this requirement if he abandons the permitted activity without
having it transferred to a third party. r
f. The authorized structure and associated activity will not cause an
unacceptable interference with navigation.
r NOV ? 0

-2-
g. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a
significant increase in turbidity outside the area of construction or
construction-related discharge. Increases such that the turbidity in the
waterbody is 50 NrU's or less in all rivers not designated as trout waters by
the North Carolina Division of Ehvirormental Management (NCDEM), 25 NLJ's or
less in all saltwater classes and in all lakes and reservoirs, and 10 NI'U's or
less in trout waters, are not considered significant.

Your application for a Water Quality Certification under
Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act was received by the

Certification is sought is to fill 1906 square feet of water to

determination by the Division that the activity for which the
federal permit or license is sought is not expected to result in
a violation of state water quality standards for the waters of
the state.1 .
My4 has reviewed your application and has identified
specific cerns for the impact of this project on water quality
standards. This fill would remove the exisiting uses of a Primary
Nursery Area by filling the bottom and further restricting the
flow of the creek with an additional restriction on stream width.
Our regulations state that in order to approve fill in freshwater
wetlands, the applicant must demonstrate that no practicable
alternative exists to the project (15A NCAC 2B .0109). We
have determined that practicable alternatives exist to your
present project design. These alternatives are to replace the
bridge with a structure which does not further restrict stream
width or replace the bridge with a shorter causeway.
Because of these concerns for potential violation of water
quality standards, I have determined that your application shall
be denied. REGIONAL OFFICES

RECODED CONDITIONS OR PERMIT RESTRICTIONS:
It is recommended that the project as proposed be denied.
When the existing bridge over Nixon Creek was constructed
approximately 57,000 sq. ft. of regularly flooded salt marsh was
filled for the causeways and the main run of the creek appears to
have been constricted by approximately 50o. The current proposal
would further reduce the main run of Nixon Creek by an additional
30% and would result in the filling of 1906 sq. ft. of Primary
Nursery Area bottom habitat. This filling would remove the
existing use of this area as a Primary Nursery Area in violation
of 15A NCAC 2B .0201. The further restriction of flow in Nixon
Creek could potentially adversely impact upstream flushing
characteristics of the creek. It is recommended that at the very
least the applicants should replace the existing structure with a
similar structure. Ideally, widening of the existing bridge span
during construction by removal of causeway fill could potentially
improve water quality in the closed SA waters of Nixon Creek, as
well as create additional shallow bottom habitat.

PRWECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is a bridge crossing Nixon's Creek on SR 1609 in Olde Point
Subdivision, north of Hampstead in Pender County. Nixon's Creek is a tributary
to old Topsail Creek. The waters of the creek are classified SA - ORW by the
Division of Environmental Management. They are designated as Primary Nursery
Area by the Division of Marine Fisheries, and are open to shellfishing. The
Pender County Land Use Plan classifies this area as Conservation. The creek
bottom here is silty, with the presence of oysters.
The Olde Point-Bridge was constructed prior to the passage of the Coastal Area
Management Act. The existing filled causeway is approximately 320' long on the
east side of the bridge, and 160' on the west side of the bridge. The causeway
is approximately 120' in width. The paved roadway is approximately 21' in
width. This causeway is located in a continuous span of Snartina alterniflora
marsh containing intermittent Juncus roemerianus. The span of the bridge is
approximately 24' across. The bridge is elevated approximately 16.5' above the
creek bottom, or approximately 13' above mean high water. The creek enters the
bridge at approximately 50' in width and is immediately reduced to the span
width of 241. The upstream width and flow of the creek appears to' have been
determined by this structure.
The applicant is proposing to replace the bridge. For economic reasons, he
proposes to place a precast concrete structure within the confines of the
existing bridge. The proposed structure is 1718" wide, 66' long, and 14110"
high. The structure will lie inside the bridge span, and will extend beyond
both sides by 'approximately 211. The structure is similar to a very large
culvert. It will be installed in the creek approximately 4' below the existing
bottom. Compacted fill material will be placed between the walls of the new
structure and the walls of the existing timber bulkheads of the bridge. The
existing gap is approximately 2.5' in width along each side, and 4' over the top
of the structure. The thickness of the proposed structure walls is 10" along
the sides and top, and 24" on the bottom. This leaves an opening of 16' in
width and 12' in height (less the tidal amplitude). Because the structure is
submerged, the navigable opening is approximately 16' wide x 11.51high (once
again, without tides). According to the applicant, there is 2.2' of water depth
under the bridge at mean high water. This depth appears to be the result of the
failed bridge abutments. Sediment has broken through as the walls have
corroded, and has built up to a level where it supports a dense bed of oysters.
This inhibits navigation directly under the bridge. There is a 2' wide run
through the oysters on the east side of the bridge. There appears to be 4' of
mean high water depth here and in the adjacent creek on both sides of the
bridge. This would be eliminated by the placement of the proposed structure.
The structure extends beyond the current bridge boundaries by approximately 21'
on each side. There are to be "wingwall" type structures to prevent the buildup
of silt in the "culvert" openings. The sides of each end will have a wall 2'
in width extending for 20' beyond them. There is to be rip rap placed to the
front and side of each of these wingwalls for erosion control. The four rip rap
structures will approximate 15' in width and 10' in length. The adjacent high
ground will also be filled to support the project. This will involve four areas
approximately 20' x 271.
There are many residential pier structures in the Olde Point area. There
appears to be only one such structure on the upstream side of the bridge
structure.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The width of NixonIs Creek. appears to have been established by the placement of
this bridge structure originally. The width is reduced by 50% from the point
where the creek enters the bridge to the immediate upstream side. As one moves
upstream, the low marsh gives way to high marsh as the flow decreases.
Placement of this precast structure rather than another bridge as
currently exists would further restrict the flow of water to the upstream side
of the bridge. As well, the navigable area would be reduced from 16.5' in
height and 23' in width, to 11.5' in height and 16' in width. The height at
high tide would be approximately 9'. This is a 30% reduction in both height and
width. The most navigable area would be eliminated.
The structure itself would fill approximately 1166 square feet of productive
bottom. The supporting wingwalls would fill approximately 160 square feet of
bottom. The rip rap erosion control would fill another 600 square feet of the
same.

Enclosed is the application of Olde Point Associates, represented by
Mr. Norman Pinson, for Department of the Army authorization and a State Water
Quality Certification to replace a bridge over Nixon's Creek on S.R. 1609,
Olde Point Subdivision, near Hampstead, Pender County, North Carolina. Your
receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for
certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative
regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section
404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification is required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law.
A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification
has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after receipt
of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action.
Therefore, if you have not acted on the request by October 26, 1992, the
District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Ms. Jean Benton, Wilmington

8. Project Summary The applicant proposes to replace the bridge crossing over Nixon's
Creek on SR 1609'in Olde. Point Subdivision.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is a bridge crossing Nixon's Creek on SR 1609 in Olde Point
Subdivision, north of Hampstead in Pender County. Nixon's Creek is a tributary
to Old Topsail Creek. The waters of the creek are classified SA - ORW by the
Division of Environmental Management. They are designated as Primary Nursery
Area by the Division of Marine Fisheries, and are open to shellfishing. The
Pender County Land Use Plan classifies this area as Conservation. The creek
bottom here is silty, with the presence of oysters.
The Olde Point Bridge was constructed prior to the passage of the Coastal Area
Management Act. The existing filled causeway is approximately 320' long on the
east side of the bridge, and 160' on the west side of the bridge. The causeway
is approximately 120' in width. The paved roadway is approximately 21' in
width. This causeway is located in a continuous span of Spartina.alterniflora
marsh containing intermittent Juncus roemerianus. The span of the bridge is
approximately 24' across. The bridge is elevated approximately 16.5' above the
creek bottom, or approximately 13' above mean high water. The creek enters the
bridge at approximately 50' in width and is immediately reduced to the span
width of 241. The upstream width and flow of the creek appears to have been
determined by this structure.
The applicant is proposing to replace the bridge. For economic reasons, he
proposes to place a precast concrete structure within the confines of the
existing bridge. The proposed structure is 1718" wide, 66' long, and 14110"
high. The structure will lie inside the bridge span, and will extend beyond
both sides by approximately 211. The structure is similar to a very large
culvert. It will be installed in the creek approximately 4' below the existing
bottom. Compacted fill material will be placed between the walls of the new
structure and the walls of the existing timber bulkheads of the bridge. The
existing gap is approximately 2.5' in width along each side, and 4' over the top
of the structure. The thickness of the proposed structure walls is 10" along
the sides and top, and 24" on the bottom. This leaves an opening of 16' in
width and 12' in height (less the tidal amplitude). Because the structure is
submerged, the navigable opening is approximately 16' wide x 11.51high (once
again, without tides). According to the applicant, there is 2.2' of water depth
under the bridge at mean high water. This depth appears to be the result of the
failed bridge abutments. Sediment has broken through as the walls have
corroded, and has built up to a level where it supports a dense bed of oysters.
This inhibits navigation directly under the bridge. There is a 2' wide run
through the oysters on the east side of the bridge. There appears to be 4' of
mean high water depth here and in the adjacent creek on both sides of the
bridge. This would be eliminated by the placement of the proposed structure.
The structure extends beyond the current bridge boundaries by approximately 21'
on each side. There are to be "wingwall" type structures to prevent the buildup
of silt in the "culvert" openings. The sides of each end will have a wall 2'
in %Vldth extending for 20' beyond them. There is to be rip rap placed to the
front and side of each of these wingwalls for erosion control. The four rip rap
structures will approximate 15' in width and 10' in length. The adjacent high
ground will also be filled to support the project. This will involve four areas
approximately 20' x 271.
There are many residential pier structures in the Olde Point area. There
appears to be only one such structure on the upstream side of the bridge
structure.

10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The width of Nixon's Creek appears to have been established by the placement of
this bridge structure originally. The width is reduced by 50% from the point
where the creek. enters the bridge to the immediate upstream side. As one moves
upstream, the low marsh gives way to high marsh as the flow decreases.
Placement of this precast structure rather than another bridge as
currently exists would further restrict the flow of water to the upstream side
of the bridge. As well, the navigable area would be reduced from 16.5' in
height and 23' in width, to 11.5' in height and 16' in width. The height at
high tide would be approximately 9'. This is a 30% reduction in both height and
width. The most navigable area would be eliminated.
The structure itself would fill approximately 1166 square feet of productive
bottom. The supporting wingwalls would fill approximately 160 square feet of
bottom. The rip rap erosion control would fill another 600 square feet of the
same.

additional information necessary to process the required Water Quality

Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright
