The Town of Ocean Isle Beach has obtained all permits and authorizations to construct a shoreline protection project involving the construction of a 1,050-foot-long terminal groin and the placement of beach fill (accretion fillet) along the east end of the Town’s oceanfront shoreline. The beach fill portion of the project will be performed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). It is the intent of the Town that all construction activity (terminal groin and accretion fillet) be performed during the environmental dredge window of November 16, 2021 through April 30, 2022. The construction of the terminal groin component of the project consists of a 750-foot rubblemound structure extending 600 feet seaward of the baseline and a 300-ft shore anchorage section (to protect against flanking of the landward end of the structure). The 750-foot rubblemound portion of the terminal groin shall be constructed to a crest elevation of +4.9 ft. NAVD with loosely placed armor stone on top of a 1-foot-thick marine mattress foundation. The rubblemound portion of the groin will not include a “core” and will be arranged such that it will remain “leaky” and will facilitate the movement of littoral material through the structure. The 300-foot shore anchorage section will be constructed with steel sheet piles. The shore anchorage section will be constructed with a top elevation that varies from +4.9 feet NAVD to +4.5 feet NAVD. The initial 130 ft. shore anchorage section from the landward end of the rubblemound section toward the existing dune shall have a top elevation of +4.9 feet NAVD. The top elevation is reduced to +4.5 feet NAVD for the remaining 170 feet of the shore anchorage section. The top of the landward most portion of the shore anchorage section will be below ground level based on the most recent survey data. As required by permit, an accretion fillet must be constructed along a 3,214-foot section of oceanfront shoreline immediately west of the structure. This portion of the project is not associated with this Advertisement for Bids as this work will be performed by the USACE through an MOA with the Town of Ocean Isle Beach and will be performed during the same environmental window as the terminal groin portion. The accretion fillet will be constructed with material dredged from the borrow area utilized by the USACE within Shallotte Inlet. Dredging will be performed by a hydraulic cutter-suction pipeline dredge (pipeline dredge). Sealed bids will be received by Daisy Ivey, Town Administrator, at the Town of Ocean Isle Beach, offices at 111 Causeway Drive, Ocean Isle Beach, NC 28469 until 2:00 P.M. (Local Time) Thursday, August 26, 2021, and then publicly opened and read aloud at the Town of Ocean Isle Beach Town Hall, located at 111 Causeway Drive, Ocean Isle Beach, NC 28469. Any bid received after said time will be returned unopened.
