8. PROJECT SUMMARY: Brunswick County proposes to install approximately 20 miles of
watermains, ranging in size from 8 to 16 inches in diameter, in various locations within the county. The
majority of the work would be completed on highground, within existing NCDOT right-of-ways.
However, there seven (7) water crossings, including five (5) creeks on SR 1115, the Shallotte River on
U.S. 17, and the AIWW, between Long Beach and the mainland Sunset Harbor area.
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Brunswick County is proposing an expansion to their county water distribution system facilities. The
county-wide system has been operating since 1974, establishing a water treatment plant served by a
well field located about two miles west of the Southport-Oak Island area on NC 211. Trunk mains were
provided so that this plant served the Southport area, the rapidly developing unincorporated area related
both to Southport and to Oak Island, and Caswell Beach, Long Beach, and Yaupon Beach on Oak Island,
and then via trunk main under the Lockwood Folly Inlet to Holden Beach. That system was upgraded
in 1980 so that the so-called "NC 211 " plant is today capable of producing six million gallons of potable
water per day. Starting in 1981, a major expansion of the system began, funded by a $37 million
general obligation bond approved by the County's voters. Initially trunk mains with necessary booster
pumping stations and water tanks, were extended northerly from Holden Beach via NC 130 through
the heavily developed area between the Lockwood Folly and Shallotte Rivers to and through Shallotte.
From Shallotte the lines continued on via NC 179 through the rapidly developing southwestern sector
of the County all the way through Calabash to a point just shy of the South Carolina state line. Today,
the County system serves the Towns of Shallotte, Ocean Isle Beach, Sunset Beach, Holden Beach,
Yaupon Beach, Long Beach, and Caswell Beach. It should be noted that the main source of water for
the County system was changed in the early 1980's.The County made an "up front" loan of
$7,000,000 to the Lower Cape Fear Water and Sewer Authority to permit that agency to undertake
a regional project. As a result, the principal source of water became the Cape Fear River, from an
intake located above Lock No. 1 in Bladen County. From there, raw water is pumped through a 48"
trunk main through Columbus County into Brunswick County where it connects with the main water
treatment plant in the northwest area of the County. This 24 million gallon per day water treatment
plant opened at Hoods Creek in 1989 with an extensive additional network of trunk mains. In 1990
the Brunswick County Water Distribution System Master Plan was completed, detailing recommended
expansion of the system through the year 2010. The 1993-1994 Improvements Project proposes the
installation of a total of 20 miles of 8 to 16 inch diameter water mains in six different areas of the
county. The project has been divided into four separate contract areas, and the majority of the work
will be installed in highground, within existing NCDOT road right-of-ways. Proposed work within Areas
of Environmental Concern include, crossings of five creeks, the Shallotte River, and the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway. Site descriptions of the individual water crossings are detailed below in three
sections: SR 1115 creek crossings, Shallotte River crossing, and Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
crossing.
Bruns. Co. Water System Expansion

1. SR 1115 CREEK CROSSINGS
The project area consists of the NCDOT right-of-way of SR 1115, between Supply and Stanbury.
The proposed 12 inch diameter waterline installation would cross five (5) small creeks. The first three
and fifth crossings, south of NC Hwy 211, are very similar: Unnamed creek (1), Doe Creek (11), Little Doe
Creek (111), and Stanbury Creek (V). All of the creeks are tributaries of the Lockwood Folly River, and
at the project sites, the creeks are small, non-navigable runs within the adjacent Cypress/Gum Swamp
wetland drainage basins. Existing culverts handle the creek flows at crossings (1) & (V), while existing
bridges span the 12 ft. and 8 ft. wide creeks at crossings (11) & (111), respectively.
Pamlico Creek, or crossing (IV), is the only tidal creek of the five crossings. There is an
embayment of coastal wetlands on the west side of the SR 1115 bridge. Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina
alterniflora) borders the veined channel pattern in the embayment, but the predominate coastal wetland
species are Black Needlerush (Juncus roemarianus), Sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense), and cat-tails
(Typha spp). The east side of the bridge is more channelized, possibly man-made during the
construction of the road. Here the creek is approximately 30 feet wide and
steep banked. Except for a small area of Sawgrass and cat-tails, there are no coastal wetland
vegetation is present adjacent to the east side of the bridge. The channel continues east
approximately 120 feet, before returning to the more typical scenario of tidal creek with coastal wetland
vegetation borders, within the wetland flood plain of Pamlico Creek.
The waters of four of the above creeks are classified Csw-HQW (High Quality Waters) by the
NC Division of Environmental Management, as well as, being designated as Primary Nursery Areas by
the NC Division of Marine Fisheries. Pamlico Creek, crossing IV, is classified SC, and it is CLOSED to
the harvest of shellfish. Pamlico Creek is also a designated PNA by the NCDMF.
The applicants propose to install the 12 inch diameter waterline by open cut, direct burial. Coffer
dams would be utilized as necessary. Excavated material from wetlands and creek bottom would be
placed on the adjacent road shoulders. The pipe would be bedded in stone, a minimum of four (4) feet
below the stream bed, back-filled with stockpiled material, and original bottom contours re-established.
The trench cut would be stabilized with a top dressing of stone, and adjacent wetland areas restored
to original contours. Excess excavated material would be hauled by truck to an off-site disposal area.
2. SHALLOTTE RIVER CROSSING
This project is designated as crossing (VI) in the application materials. The site is located on US
Hwy 17, just west of downtown Shallotte. At this location, the river's floodplain vegetation community
is Cypress/Gum Wooded Swamp. The watermain is proposed for the south side of US 17 where the
wetland flood plain is approximately 160 feet wide, adjacent to the highway. The river is approximately
36 feet wide, but probably varies seasonally. These waters are navigable, and are classified as C-sw
HOW (High Quality Waters) by the NC Division of Environmental Management. Since the project area
is classified Inland Waters, and above NC Division of Marine Fisheries jurisdiction, it is not classified as
Primary Nursery Area. However, down river at the US 17/NC Hwy 130 Shallotte River bridge, the river
is designated as Primary Nursery Area.
Bruns. Co. Water System Expansion
Page Four
The applicant proposes to install a 12 inch diameter waterline across the Shallotte River, by the
same open cut trench method listed above. The trench would be 160 feet long, three feet wide, and
approximately 4 feet deep. The same construction methods, rock stabilization, and restoration of
original wetland and bottom contours would also apply to this crossing.
3. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY CROSSING
This portion of the project is designated as crossing (VII) in the application materials. The
proposed project includes work areas, in Long Beach and in the Sunset Harbor area of Brunswick
County, to facilitate the installation of a 12 inch waterline under the AIWW. The Long Beach site is a
public park, located at the west end of Oak Island Dr., adjacent to the AIWW. The park consists of a
playground and parking lot. The water side of the property is stabilized by a vertical wooden bulkhead.
The Sunset Harbor site is located off SR 1112, on Palm St. The project area is wooded; oak, hickory,
and large pine. There is a sharp transition from the highground to high coastal marsh, along a 3-5 ft.
embankment. The width of the marsh varies from 160 to 230 feet in width. Typically, there is a
landward band (20-40 ft. wide) of Juncus roemarianus, interspersed with Limonium spp., Distichlas
spicata, and Salicornia spp. Spartina alterniflora dominates the remainder of the marsh border, except
where several hummocks support the high marsh vegetation, as well as, some woody shrubs, including,
Iva frutescens, Borrichia frutescens, and Baccharis halimifolia. There is a natural oyster shell berm,
parallel to the waterway, along the waterward side of the marsh border. The AIWW is approximately
500 feet wide in the project area. The waters are classified SA by the NC Division of Environmental
Management, and are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish. The waters in the project area are not
designated as Primary Nursery Area by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries.
The county proposes to utilize directional drilling methodology to install a 12 inch diameter waterline,
beneath the AIWW, between Long Beach and the mainland. The drill rig would be set up at the Sunset
Harbor site, on the north side of the waterway. Drilling fluids would be contained in recycling tanks,
and silt fences installed to prevent the accidental deposition of material into adjacent wetlands and/or
waters. The bore length would be approximately 1200 feet, and would maintain a depth of 15 feet
below the federal channel of the AIWW. On the south side of the waterway, the park's marl parking
lot would serve as the exit target of the proposed directional drilling operation. The expulsion of drilling
fluids at the exit point would be contained in a pit or by small earthen berms. The adjacent road corridor
(Oak Island Dr.) would serve as a pipe layout area for the pull back stage of the drilling operation. On
Long Beach, the new pipeline would be connected to the system by trenching to an watermain on Oak
Island Dr. At the Sunset Harbor site, the new line would be extended, approximately 400 feet, to Palm
Ave. and temporarily capped. Subsequent improvements projects, within future budget cycles, would
connect this segment of the Brunswick County Water System to serve area residents.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed installation of 20 miles of waterline would disturb approximately 25 acres of highground,
within the road right-of-ways of existing highways in Brunswick County. Additionally, the wooded
Sunset Harbor site, off Palm St., must be cleared and prepared for the directional drilling set-up.
Another 20,800 square feet (.5 acre) of highground would be disturbed. Along SR 1115, the five creek
crossings would collectively disturb approximately 3570 square feet of shallow bottom and adjacent
Bruns. Co. Water System Expansion
Page Five
wetlands. The Shallotte River crossing would add 1600 square feet to the total bottom and wetland
disturbance. Experience indicates that these figures are likely to be larger, as similar projects using
heavy equipment, have rarely been held to a 10 ft. disturbance corridor. However, if proper
sedimentation and erosion control measure are implemented, and original stream bottom and wetland
contours are restored after pipeline installation, no long term adverse impacts are anticipated. Short
term turbidity would be associated with excavation within the water courses. To avoid impacting
juvenile organisms, work should be scheduled outside of periods of peak biological activity.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
The Brunswick County 1993-1994 Water Systems Improvements Project involves the
installation of 20 miles of watermains ranging in size from 8 to 16 inches. The pipeline will
be installed in various locations in Brunswick County as shown on the attached location map.
Contract A, Stone Chimney/Sabbath Home, involves the installation of a 12 inch watermain
along S.R 1115 and S.R. 1119, in DOT right-of-ways, from Supply to Stanbury. The pipeline
will cross five creeks including Doe Creek, Little Doe Creek, Pamlico Creek, Stanbury Creek,
and an unnamed creek. The pipeline is to be installed at the creek crossings using the open
cut method with coffer dams as they are needed.
Contract B, Mt. Pisgah/Civietown, involves the installation of watermains ranging in size
from 12 to 16 inches. The pipeline is to be installed along S.R. 1130 and S.R. 1132, in the
DOT right-of-ways, from Supply to Shell Point.
Contract C, Sunset Harbor, involves the installation of a 12 inch watermain across the
Intracoastal Waterway from Sunset Harbor to Pinnier Point on Long Beach. The pipeline will
be installed across the Intracoastal Waterway by way of a directional drill. No fluid or waste
from the directional drill will be discharged to the environnment. All drilling fluids and loose
cuttings will be held in pits or holding tanks on both the entry and exit point of the
directional drill. The clarified slurry may be recycled or it shall be hauled off to an approved
disposal site at the completion of the project. Erosion control will be utilized at both the
entrance and exit point of the directional drill.
Contract D, Shallotte/Bricklanding/Mt. Misery/Long Beach, involves the installation of 8 to
12 inch watermains, in DOT right-of-ways, at four different locations in Brunswick County.
The first location is along U.S. 17 just west of Shallotte. The pipeline at this location will
cross the Shallotte River. The pipeline will be installed across the river using the open cut
method with coffer dams. Contract D also involves the installation of watermains along S.R.
1143 in Bricklanding, along S.R. 1426 from Phoenix to East Brook, and along Oak Island
Drive on Long Beach.
The waterways that the pipeline is to cross includes five creeks, one river, and one
intracoastal waterway. The names of the waterways are as follows:
