9.' PROJECT DESCRIPTION 2/4/93
The project site is located on S.R. 1300, on the west side of the Cape Fear River,
approximately 800 feet south. of the. Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, in Brunswick
County. The property is accessed by an unimproved road (SR 1300), off of the
entrance road (SR 1352) to the U.S.S. Battleship North Carolina Memorial Park.
The applicant currently operates a marine towing company on the 2.6 acre site.
Existing structures on the site include several storage buildings, a shop, and a
small office. The east side of the property, adjacent to the Cape Fear River, is
bulkheaded,. and a man-made canal, approximately .300 feet long and 70-90 feet
wide, borders the southside of the property. The Cape Fear River is approximately
1,000 feet wide in the project area, with a water depth of 12 - 14 feet at bulkhead
of the project site. The shipping channel of the Cape Fear River is approximately
550 feet wide in the project area, and is located approximately 300 feet
waterward of the bulkhead. The channel is maintained to a depth of 40 feet by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Wilmington Harbor Project). In the project area,
the waters of the Cape Fear River are classified SC by the N.C. Division of
Environmental Management, and are designated as primary nursery area by the
N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries.
The applicant is proposing to expand the width of the existing canal by excavating
the adjacent highground. The width of the highground excavation would be
approximately 35 feet wide on the western end of the canal and taper to zero,
over 230 feet, at the mouth of the canal, to a depth of 14 feet at mlw. The
applicant proposes to stabilize the excavated shoreline by constructing a vertical
bulkhead,,.250 feet in length. In place repairs and maintenance to the existing
bulkhead would also be accomplished at this time. The highground excavation
would create approximately 2,000 cubic yards of spoil material. A portion of this
material would be used to backfill the proposed bulkhead. Excess material would
be hauled to a highground site. The applicant is proposing maintenance dredging
within the existing canal to a depth of 14 feet at mlw. A distance of 20 feet
would be maintained between the dredging limits and the opposite shoreline, to
avoid any adverse impacts from undercutting or stuffing, to the adjacent property
owner's existing bulkhead and shoreline. The dredged area would be
approximately 300 feet long, extending to the 14 feet water contour in the river,
and average 60 feet in width. The maintenance dredging would be accomplished
using a hydraulic pipeline dredge. The project would create approximately 7,000 -
8,000 cubic yards of spoil material, which would be pumped to the existing, 700
acre, U.S.A.C.O.E Eagle Island, spoils disposal area, located 3,000 feet south of
the project site.

10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed highground excavation would convert approximately 4,025 square
feet of upland. area to open water. The proposed maintenance excavation would
disturb approximately 18,000, square feet of previously dredged bottom. There
would be some short-term turbidity associated with the dredging project, but
provided the work is timed to avoid periods of peak biological activity, no long-
term adverse impacts are anticipated.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to expand an existing man-made
canal by excavation ±4,000 s.f. of adjacent highground. He proposes to
stabilized this shoreline by constructing a bulkhead (250 If). He also proposes to
complete maintenance dredging of the remainder of the basin (18,000 s.f.).

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 2/4/93
The project site is located on.S.R. 1300, on the west side of the Cape Fear River,
approximately 800 feet south of the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, in Brunswick
County. The property is accessed by an unimproved road (SR 1300), off of the
entrance road (SR 1352) to the U.S.S. Battleship North Carolina Memorial Park.
The applicant currently operates a marine towing company on the 2.6 acre site.
Existing structures on the site include several storage buildings, a shop, and a
small office. The east side of the property, adjacent to the Cape Fear River, is
.bulkheaded, and a man-made canal, approximately 300 feet long and 70-90 feet
wide, borders the southside of'the property. The Cape Fear River is approximately
1,000 feet wide in the project area, with a water depth of 12 - 14 feet at bulkhead
of the project site. The shipping channel of the Cape Fear River is approximately
550 feet wide in the project area, and is located approximately 300 feet
waterward of the bulkhead. The channel is maintained to a depth of 40 feet by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Wilmington Harbor Project). In the project area,
the waters of the Cape Fear River are classified SC by the N.C. Division of
Environmental Management, and are designated as primary nursery area by the
N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries.
The applicant is proposing to expand the width of the existing canal by excavating
the adjacent highground. The width of the highground excavation would be
approximately 35 feet wide on the western end of the canal and taper to zero,
over 230 feet, at the mouth of the canal, to a depth of 14 feet at mlw. The
applicant proposes to stabilize the excavated shoreline by constructing a vertical
bulkhead, 250 feet in length. In place repairs and maintenance to the existing
bulkhead would also be accomplished at this time. The highground excavation
would create approximately 2,000 cubic yards of spoil material. A portion of this
material would be used to backfill the proposed bulkhead. Excess material would
be hauled to a highground site. The applicant is proposing maintenance dredging
within the existing canal to a depth of 14 feet at mlw. A distance of 20 feet
would be maintained between the dredging limits and the opposite shoreline, to
avoid any adverse impacts from undercutting or sluffing, to the adjacent property,
owner's existing bulkhead and shoreline. The dredged area would be
approximately 300 feet long, extending to the 14 feet water contour in the river,
and average 60 feet in width. The maintenance dredging would be accomplished
using a hydraulic pipeline dredge. The project would create approximately 7,000 -
8,000 cubic yards of spoil material, which would be pumped to the existing, 700
acre, U.S.A.C.O.E Eagle Island, spoils disposal area, located 3,000 feet south of
the project site.

10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed highground excavation would convert approximately 4,025 square
feet of upland area to open water. The proposed maintenance excavation would
disturb approximately 18,000 square feet of previously dredged bottom. There
would be some short-term turbidity associated with the dredging project, but
provided the work is timed to avoid periods of peak biological activity, no long-
term adverse impacts are anticipated.

Dear Mr. Parker:
Reference the application of H&R Towing Company, represented by Mr. Alan
Rusher for a Department of the Army permit to maintain and enlarge a basin and
repair and construct a bulkhead off the Cape Fear River, Wilmington Harbor,
Brunswick County, North Carolina.
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. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict
compliance with the permit plans.
b. The bulkhead will be positioned in strict accordance with permit
plans.
c. All excavated materials will be confined landward of the mean high
water (MHW) elevation contour within adequate dikes or other retaining
structures to prevent spillover of solids into any vegetated wetlands or
surrounding waters.
d. The terminal end of the pipeline from the dredge into the diked
retention area will be positioned at or greater than 50 feet from any part of
the dike and a maximum distance from spillways to prevent dike erosion and to
allow adequate settlement of suspended solids.
e. A water control structure will be installed at the intake end of the
effluent pipe leading from the retention area in order to ensure maximum
settlement of suspended solids.
f. Flow from the diked retention area will be confined by pipe, trough,
or similar device to a point at or below the mean low water (MLW) elevation
contour to prevent gully erosion and siltation.
f
-2-
g. No vegetated wetlands will be excavated or filled.
h. Excavation will not exceed 14 feet below the elevation of mean low
water (MLW).
i. A distance of 20 feet will be maintained between the dredging limits
and the southern shoreline of the basin to avoid any undercutting or sluffing
of the adjacent property owner's bulkhead or shoreline.
j. This permit does not authorize the interference with any existing or
proposed Federal project, and the permittee will not be entitled to
compensation for damage or injury to the authorized structure or work which
may be caused from existing or future operations undertaken by the United
States in the public interest.
k. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free
use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized
work. Use of the permitted activity must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States.
1. 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.
m. 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 NTU's are not considered significant.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Rudi Schiener, Wilmington
