The proposed work at Site 1 includes: Replacement of two conveyors that were previously damaged, including two concrete support footers with associated piles and poles to support the replacement conveyors. Conveyor RSB-6 will extend 80 linear feet over State Tidal Wetlands and Conveyor RSB-9 will extend 84 linear feet over State Tidal Wetlands. The conveyors will be constructed in an 11-foot wide diameter tube. The transfer area associated with RSB-6 will be protected with a 253.6-square foot covered structure extending 19 feet, 10.75 inches above the existing platform. The transfer area associated with RSB-9 will be protected with a 294-square foot covered structure extending 17 feet above building one. The two conveyor footings will be constructed by replacing a 19-foot, 9-inch by 31-foot platform section and a 15-foot, 6-inch by 22-foot platform section with new concrete footing supported by a total of 46 piles and will also include a total of 6 columns extending between 4 and 15 feet above the platform to support the conveyors. The proposed work at site 2 includes: Repair to the existing pier by replacing two 10-foot by 9-foot, 6-inch concrete pier sections with new concrete pile caps supported with a total of four 18-inch steel piles; the work also includes the replacement of the existing fender systems. The purpose of this work is to provide needed repairs and upgrades to support the operations of Domino Sugar refinery.

202261119/22-WL-0721/22-WQC-0052: MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES, at 580 Taylor Ave, Annapolis, Maryland 21401, has applied to construct 597 linear feet of 4-foot wide timber jetty, and construct 15-foot wide stone armor in front of 295 feet of timber jetty within a maximum of 283 feet channelward of the mean high water line, and emplace four piles with warning signage, two of which will include osprey nests. The purpose of this project is to improve navigation access and shoreline erosion control. The proposed project is located within the tidal waters of the Elk River at 209 Rogue’s Harbor Rd in Elk Neck State Park, North East, MD 21901. Mitigation for 3,596 square feet of impacts to SAV will be required. For more information, please contact Mel Throckmorton at mel.throckmorton@maryland.gov or at 410-375-2803.

202261771/22-WL-1137: AMTRAK, 400 W 31st Street, New York, New York 10001 has applied to remove ten remnant piers that remain from the 1866 railroad bridge that crossed the Susquehanna River between Havre de Grace and Perryville, Maryland. The piers are all approximately 36-foot, 6 ¼-inch long by 9-foot, 1-inch wide and extending 21 feet above mean low water. The removal will consist of demolishing each pier in place with the use of hammering from an excavator and then hauling off the material by barge. The pier structures are to be removed to approximately two feet below the mudline. To contain sediment, the project includes the installation of two temporary sheet pile perimeter walls around piers 1 and 12 and the placement of turbidity curtains around piers 2 through 11. The temporary impact created within the turbidity curtain or sheet pile perimeter is 2,350 square feet per pier; creating a total temporary impact of 23,500 square feet. The purpose of this project is to improve hydraulic flow and enhance boater safety by removing navigational hazards.
