The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is in need to stabilize the point adjacent to the
"hairpin" turn at Southdock, on the north end of Ocracoke Island. This area is eroding rapidly and needs to be
protected to prevent the point from compromising the ferry basin and the stacking lanes which in turn could
cause disruption of service or safety issue for the travelling public. This area is in need of emergency repair to
protect and keep the integrity of the basin and ferry stacking lanes and allow continued safe travel of park visitors.
The NPS and its cooperators will see to provide a safe and healthful environment for visitors and employees and
the NPS will work together with other federal, state and local agencies to carry out this responsibility (2006
Management Policies Sec 8.2.5). Director's Order 50C Public Risk Management Program also outlines the park's
role in employee and public safety and risk management. If the area around the point is not protected and erodes
away, this would eliminate a safe harbor for the NCDOT ferries while docked loading/unloading traffic. This
could cause damage to the vessels, damage to traveling public's vehicles, and would increase the likelihood of
injury to the public and crews onboard the vessels during strong wind events. Increased rough condition in the
basin could damage marine assets such as ramp and gantries and dolphins which in turn could cause
delays/cancellation of Ferry schedules. Ocracoke Island uses this ferry route to transport medical emergencies by
ambulance. Additional fire and law enforcement service response to Ocracoke is quicker from Hatteras then from
Swan Quarter (one hour verses three hours). NC Highway 12 continues from Hatteras Island through the Pamlico
Sound to Ocracoke Island and both NCDOT Highway and Ferry Divisions are responsible for maintaining the
facilities at the Southdock ferry terminal as part of the NC highway system.
Over the last several years this area has been continually eroding and due to constraints in state funding only
minor temporary projects to the site have recently occurred (PEPC# 72104 & 79274). A long-term groin project is
currently being analyzed in an environmental review process by contractors (Moffatt & Nichols) for NCDOT.
However, until the NEPA can be completed and groins installed, a temporary solution to protect the area from
further shoreline loss is needed immediately.
NCDOT, along with Moffatt & Nichols, are working on a proposed plan to install sheet pile to protect this critical
area. The new sheet pile will be installed in the basin along the existing dilapidated sheet pile.
Also, NCDOT is proposing to install new sheet pile along the inlet side to protect the eroding dune line. Attached
are the drawings for new sheet pile, an aerial view of the eroding area with proposed installment of new sheet pile
and an emergency declaration to protect the existing point.
NCDOT is proposing to install approximately 990' of new sheet pile to protect the eroding area. NCDOT will
need to grade the area between the existing sheet pile in the basin and the inlet side so a crane can be able to move
along the point to install the new sheet pile all while on land. This area in the past has not had any environmental
concerns with nesting shorebirds nor sea turtle nesting.
There will be no in water work. The sheet pile will be installed from land and will be placed as close to the high
water mark as reasonably possible.

Issue: Facility within a 100 year floodplain

Impact: Ignoring the importance of protecting this shoreline feature
(which seems pretty great) the only floodplain element that
could/should be considered is the impact to floodplain values, and I
think those are pretty limited - probably just energy dissipation since it
looks like there is no habitat to speak of. In terms of treatment options,
sheet piling is probably one of the most problematic (from a floodplain
value aspect), but it is only a temporary treatment, so its very short-
term impacts could be reasonably dismissed and no SOF needed.

Mitigation(s):
• The permittee is responsible to provide a revegetation plan to restore disturbed areas to the Special Use
Coordinator for NPS approval.
• Permittee must present all final site plans including staging areas to Special Use Coordinator.
• Special Use Coordinator must notify the management team, RM staff and all park district staff in writing,
at least 2 weeks in advance of project, when projected start and end dates of project are.
• The permittee is responsible to provide a pre -construction meeting (at least 2 weeks in advance) with the
contractor, park management team, Safety Officer, Environmental Protection Specialist, Cultural Program
Manager and district leads. Permittee must coordinate with Special Use Coordinator Carmen Panteleo
(Carmen_pantaleo@nps.gov) to set up meeting.
• Site plans need to be submitted to Environmental Protection Specialist, Sabrina Henry
(Sabrina henry@nps.gov) and approved prior to project implementation.
• Equipment used at the site shall be pressure cleaned and free of weeds, seed, debris, and mud to prevent
the introduction and/or spread of exotic, invasive plants.
• Restore existing landscape and vegetation to original condition. Recontouring and revegetation of
disturbed areas would take place following the project. Efforts would strive to reconstruct the natural
contour, spacing, abundance, and diversity of native plant species using approved native species.
• Only NPS/park approved native plant species shall be used.
• Sheet piles are a temporary installation (--1 year) and will be removed upon NPS request. If sheet piles are
required for long term protection then NCDOT is responsible for completing NEPA analysis to
determine appropriate alternatives and long-term effects of shoreline hardening.

"hairpin" turn at Southdock, on the north end of Ocracoke Island. This area is eroding rapidly and needs to be
protected to prevent the point from compromising the ferry basin and the stacking lanes which in turn could
cause disruption of service or safety issue for the travelling public. This area is in need of emergency repair to
protect and keep the integrity of the basin and ferry stacking lanes and allow continued safe travel of park visitors.
The NPS and its cooperators will see to provide a safe and healthful environment for visitors and employees and
the NPS will work together with other federal, state and local agencies to carry out this responsibility (2006
Management Policies Sec 8.2.5). Director's Order 50C Public Risk Management Program also outlines the park's
role in employee and public safety and risk management. If the area around the point is not protected and erodes
away, this would eliminate a safe harbor for the NCDOT ferries while docked loading/unloading traffic. This
could cause damage to the vessels, damage to traveling public's vehicles, and would increase the likelihood of
injury to the public and crews onboard the vessels during strong wind events. Increased rough condition in the
basin could damage marine assets such as ramp and gantries and dolphins which in turn could cause
delays/cancellation of Ferry schedules. Ocracoke Island uses this ferry route to transport medical emergencies by
ambulance. Additional fire and law enforcement service response to Ocracoke is quicker from Hatteras then from
Swan Quarter (one hour verses three hours). NC Highway 12 continues from Hatteras Island through the Pamlico
Sound to Ocracoke Island and both NCDOT Highway and Ferry Divisions are responsible for maintaining the
facilities at the Southdock ferry terminal as part of the NC highway system.
Over the last several years this area has been continually eroding and due to constraints in state funding only
minor temporary projects to the site have recently occurred (PEPC# 72104 & 79274). A long-term groin project is
currently being analyzed in an environmental review process by contractors (Moffatt & Nichols) for NCDOT.
However, until the NEPA can be completed and groins installed, a temporary solution to protect the area from
further shoreline loss is needed immediately.
NCDOT, along with Moffatt & Nichols, are working on a proposed plan to install sheet pile to protect this critical
area. The new sheet pile will be installed in the basin along the existing dilapidated sheet pile.
Also, NCDOT is proposing to install new sheet pile along the inlet side to protect the eroding dune line. Attached
are the drawings for new sheet pile, an aerial view of the eroding area with proposed installment of new sheet pile
and an emergency declaration to protect the existing point.
NCDOT is proposing to install approximately 990' of new sheet pile to protect the eroding area. NCDOT will
need to grade the area between the existing sheet pile in the basin and the inlet side so a crane can be able to move
along the point to install the new sheet pile all while on land. This area in the past has not had any environmental
concerns with nesting shorebirds nor sea turtle nesting.
There will be no in water work. The sheet pile will be installed from land and will be placed as close to the high
water mark as reasonably possible.
Project Locations:
Location
County: Hyde State: NC
Mitigation(s):
• The permittee is responsible to provide a revegetation plan to restore disturbed areas to the Special Use
Coordinator for NPS approval.
• Permittee must present all final site plans including staging areas to Special Use Coordinator.
• Special Use Coordinator must notify the management team, RM staff and all park district staff in writing,
at least 2 weeks in advance of project, when projected start and end dates of project are.
• The permittee is responsible to provide a pre -construction meeting (at least 2 weeks in advance) with the
contractor, park management team, Safety Officer, Environmental Protection Specialist, Cultural Program
Manager and district leads. Permittee must coordinate with Special Use Coordinator Carmen Panteleo
(Carmen_pantaleo@nps.gov) to set up meeting.
• Site plans need to be submitted to Environmental Protection Specialist, Sabrina Henry
(Sabrina henry@nps.gov) and approved prior to project implementation.
• Equipment used at the site shall be pressure cleaned and free of weeds, seed, debris, and mud to prevent
the introduction and/or spread of exotic, invasive plants.
• Restore existing landscape and vegetation to original condition. Recontouring and revegetation of
disturbed areas would take place following the project. Efforts would strive to reconstruct the natural
contour, spacing, abundance, and diversity of native plant species using approved native species.
• Only NPS/park approved native plant species shall be used.
• Sheet piles are a temporary installation (—I year) and will be removed upon NPS request. If sheet piles are
required for long term protection then NCDOT is responsible for completing NEPA analysis to
determine appropriate alternatives and long-term effects of shoreline hardening.
CE Citation: C.19 Construction or rehabilitation in previously disturbed or developed areas, required to meet
health or safety regulations, or to meet requirements for making facilities accessible to the handicapped.
CE Justification:
2006 Management Policies Sec. 8.2.5 and DO 50C outlines NPS policy and guidance to provide for public and
employee safety and reduce risk.
Decision: I find that the action fits within the categorical exclusion above. Therefore, I am categorically
excluding the described project from further NEPA analysis. No extraordinary circumstances apply.

NCDOT has requested an emergency action to install sheet pile as a wall to protect the bulkhead of the South dock ferry
basin from further shoreline erosion. Attached is the SUP application along with the conceptual drawing of the proposed
structure. A long-term groin project is currently being analyzed in an environmental review process by contractors for
NCDOT. However in the meantime a temporary solution to protect the area from further shoreline loss is this proposed
sheet pile wall.
If you have any questions or concerns please let me know by Friday March 15.

Hi Sabrina,
Has NCDOT given you a proposed timeline? I didn't see request dates in the application.
Carmen - I suggest giving them several extra weeks or a month or two beyond any requested timeline to take into
account delays due to contracting, weather, etc.
Dave - if you haven't, will you please share with Carmen the emergency declaration information?
Carmen - I suggest including some information about this emergency declaration in the permit and also saving any
related documents in the permit folder for our administrative record. That way, we will be able to easily understand the
circumstances of this permit in the future.
Thanks,
Sarah

Sarah and Carmen,
Attached is the emergency declaration. I will be meeting with NCDOT tomorrow morning and find out more about the time
line and other project specifics. They still need to order the sheet pile so this installation won't happen within the next
week or so but as soon as they can get the material.
I will also put this project in PEPC so I will be sure to add Carmen to the IDT so he can track where we are at and for any
mitigation/conditions identified for this action.

I contacted Lance and at this time he is waiting on how long the sheet pile will have to be and then see what the lead time
will be to get it onsite. So, he currently can't give us a start date until he has that information. He will keep us posted and
updated once he gets that information. I mentioned to him that I will be in training next week and off -site and to contact
Sabrina or Sarah if he has any updates.

SF.CRE rARY
Immediate attention has been requested to repair Southdock at Ocracoke due to rapidly
increasing erosion. The ferry basin bulkhead and stacking lanes have incurred significant
damage to the pavement. If continued erosion were to cause the existing bulkhead to fail,
the entire basin would be impacted.
Due to the impacts of these failures, I have delcared an emergency exists and determined
it is not feasable nor in the public's interest, for the Department of Transportation to
comply with the statutory bidding requirements in obtaining materials, equipment and/or
Contractors assistance in our efforts to restore these structures. This is being done
pursuant to the authority granted by G.S. 136-28.1(e).
Instruction has been given to the Division 1 Engineer to immediately proceed to
accomplish necessary repairs.
