    • Coastal Currents: Your Update on Restoration, Exploration, and Celebrations – NC Coastal Federation

       
       
      Dear Friends of the Coast,

      This month has been a busy one for staff here at the Coastal Federation. Last week, some of our team was able to travel up to Washington D.C., to take part in the Restore America’s Estuaries Conference, where they presented our work on oysters, water quality, salt marshes and marine debris to a national audience and spent time collaborating with a wide range of federal, state, and local partners.

      This newsletter also has updates on everything from oyster “shellebrations” to educational excursions to new merchandise – there’s plenty to explore and get involved in.

      Finally, we want to take a moment to recognize the devastation that Hurricane Helene brought to western North Carolina. Those communities have supported our recovery from many past storms, and we are here for them now. If you haven’t already, we hope you’ll consider joining us in making a donation to your charity organization of choice to support their ongoing recovery efforts.

      We hope to see you soon at the coast!

       Braxton Davis

      -Executive Director

      The Federation and TowBoat US along with support from the Town of Morehead City and other partners recently removed a 32-foot sailboat anchored near Big Rock Landing that had succumbed to the heavy rainfall and sunk to the bottom of the channel. Abandoned and Derelict Vessels (ADVs), such as this, pose major threats to recreation, wildlife, and water quality. After many years of navigating the world of ADV removal, we know the faster these vessels can be removed, the better for the environment and the safety of other boats out on the water.
       
      Oct'24 ADV Removal 1.jpg
       
      The boat removal process itself can take several hours and requires a lot of work from crews utilizing inflatables and water pumps in a coordinated effort to bring the sailboat up.
       
      The process of gathering the correct permissions and coordinating crews for ADV removals is often slow. Thanks to the recent adoption of City Ordinance NO. 2024-O-10 by the Town of Morehead City the Federation and its partners were able to get this job done in record time!

      Oct24 Enews Header 3.jpgOctober is designated as NC Oyster Month and we have been shellebrating our favorite bivalve so far this month and there are still plenty of opportunities to join us at an upcoming event! In the northeast region, you can jump on a kayak and join us for our Oysters Uncovered: A Farm-to-Fork Experience. Where you’ll not only get to paddle out on our demonstration oyster lease and learn all about oysters and oyster farming you’ll also get to enjoy samples of amazing fresh oysters at Dune Street Rawbar & Grill.

      Reserve your spot today!

      Oct'24 Oysters 2.png

      Oysters are considered one of the most important species to our estuaries for the number of benefits they provide including helping to filter and clean water, providing habitat for countless other species, and they are pretty amazing to eat too! As you enjoy oysters this fall we hope you’ll also remember to recycle your oyster shells at one of our drop-off locations around the coast.The Federation uses these shells in many of our restoration projects.

      Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting 26 students from Elizabeth City State University’s HBCUs Outside cohort for an unforgettable day of exploration and learning at Jockey’s Ridge State Park. The weather was perfect, with sunny skies and perfect conditions for adventure!

      Before joining us at Jockey’s Ridge, the students had the chance to explore the maritime forest Nags Head Woods, another intriguing coastal habitat.

      For many students, this was their first time visiting Jockey’s Ridge, and it was an incredible opportunity to experience the park’s diverse ecosystems. Our day began with a visit to the Jockey’s Ridge Visitors Center, followed by lunch and an engaging private program led by Park Ranger Justin Barnes.

      The group then embarked on a guided hike across the living dune, exploring various habitats on the way to the living shoreline. Just in time for National Estuaries Week, we learned about the estuarine system near the dunes, explored the water and nearby trails, and even had the chance to contribute to the Coastal Federation’s restoration project by planting salt marsh cord grasses.

      It was a day filled with learning, fun, and connecting with nature. We were thrilled to see how enthusiastic this group was about all they learned!

      Oct24 Enews Header 5.jpgFall birding cruises are happening right now and we hope you’ll sign up and join local birding experts for an educational cruise on the White Oak River in Swansboro. The group will slowly cruise on a covered ferryboat through the estuaries in and around the White Oak River and Bogue Sound, including Huggins and Bear Islands, looking for resident and migratory birds. Participants will meet at the Lady Swan Boat Tours dock in downtown Swansboro and are asked to bring their binoculars, water, and a snack, and dress appropriately for the weather.

      The next birding cruise will be on October 20, but there are several more scheduled over the coming months so be sure to secure your spot!

      Reserve your spot today!

      Oct24 Enews Header 6.jpgThank you to everyone who has inquired recently about completing charitable distributions from an individual retirement account (IRA).

      For those of us aged 70½ and older, giving to the Federation through your IRA is a qualified charitable distribution that, in most cases, can count toward your required minimum distribution.

      You can also support the coast by donating stock to the Federation.

      Both of these giving options are easy to do and now is a great time to cross this off your list! Please contact Sarah King via email or at 252-393-8185 for more information, and so we can be on the lookout for your gift!

       
      Oct24 Enews Header 7.jpgAs the weather cools down, we have partnered with Recover, an eco-friendly clothing brand, to introduce new hoodie and t-shirt options! We hope you’ll take advantage of this limited-edition offering.

      Director’s Letter
      The past few weeks have been marked by loss and tragedy, both here in the Outer Banks and across the Southeast in the wake of Hurricane Helene. While these tragedies are hard to comprehend, they also highlight the resilience of our communities and the outpouring of love and support that we share with each other in times of need.  
      To keep you informed, here are local resources related to these recent events: 
      • The National Park Service provided updates here on the recent fatal plane crash at Wright Brothers National Memorial. 
      As our broader community works to remember those we’ve lost and heal from these events, we hope that our newsletter brings a bit of light to your inbox as you read about some of the people and places that make our Outer Banks such a special place for each of us.

      Science in Our Parks: Treating Invasive Plants
      This content is brought to you in partnership with our National Park Service partners. 
      Did you know that in addition to supporting park projects, we also support science and research initiatives in our parks?

      One way we do this is through our Aid to Parks funds! A portion of these funds is currently being used toward the mapping and treatment of invasive plants within our national parks.

      This month, Michael Gosselin, Biological Science Technician at Cape Hatteras National Seashore, takes us behind the scenes of invasive plant treatment efforts in our national parks. One such plant is the Thorny Olive (pictured above), which thrives in a variety of habitats and competes with native plants for resources, which results in reduced biodiversity and altered wildlife habitat. By removing invasive plants like Thorny Olive, native plants like Yaupon Holly and American Beautyberry can thrive and provide food for wildlife.

      Congress Passes Continuing Resolution for
      FY2025 Appropriations Bills
      After their August recess, Congress returned to Washington with a looming government shutdown at the end of September. After a false start and posturing by a number of members of Congress and outside influences, The House passed a relatively “clean” continuing resolution on September 25. The continuing resolution was then taken up and passed by the U.S. Senate on the same day and subsequently signed by President Biden on September 26, which keeps federal agencies open through December 20th.

      In making the decision to only pass a three-month extension, the tables are set for another Congressional showdown right before Christmas. While Congress doesn’t have to wait until the last minute, it is highly unlikely that any movement will take place prior to mid-December with Congress out of session until after the election. Passing a three-month extension was the most palatable option for both political parties since each side is gambling that their party will control more votes needed for passage after the election. The best case scenario for the waterway would be for Congress to pass the Energy & Water Appropriations bill in December, but the reality is that if either party controls both the House and Senate after the election, there will likely be another continuing resolution so that controlling party can exert their will to pass new appropriations bills, especially if they also control the presidency. If the House and Senate remain as is, there will be a stronger push to pass the appropriations bills and have a clean slate for the new Congress in January 2025.

      In the table below is the current breakdown of funding as it stands today (same as last month). In addition, the House and Senate have also included the following amounts in the Additional Dredging Needs funding pots which we are eligible to receive.

      • General Navigation – House: $931.945 million, Senate: $20 million
      • Inland Waterways – House: $50 million, Senate: $64.987 million
      • Small, Remote & Subsistence Navigation – House: $90 million, Senate: $329,178 million
       

      Updated Local Notice to Mariners (LNM 40/24):
      New Waterway Closure Schedule for Onslow Beach Swing Bridge Replacement near Camp Lejuene, NC

      After a multi-month suspension of construction activities to construct a new bridge to replace the Onslow Beach Swing Bridge across the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, mile 240.7, at Camp Lejeune, NC, the U.S. Coast Guard has given the green light again for the contractor to perform in water construction activities that require multi-day shutdowns of the waterway for two weeks in November. To facilitate construction of the bascule span (structural steel), the new bridge will remain in the closed-to-navigation position and will not be able to open at any time during the extended bridge closure periods, as reflected below:

      • from 7 a.m. on Monday, November 4, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 7, 2024
      • from 7 a.m. on Monday, November 18, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 21, 2024

      While additional work will be performed at other times with limited waterway openings, during the time periods listed above there will be no openings for waterway users. We encourage everyone to read the full Local Notice to Mariners by clicking here. The specific section related to this project begins on page 33 of 61.

      Through efforts undertaken by Mr. Robert Sherer and other recreational boating partners along with input from our commercial members, the AIWA was able to highlight that there are “no good weeks” in the fall for waterway shutdowns. Although we were unable to successfully remove full closures, the U.S. Coast Guard invited and listened to our concerns regarding the waterway closure and pushed the closures back to the last month of hurricane season, reduced the initially requested closures to one quarter of the request, integrated a construction cancellation plan for incoming heavy weather, and took into account the semi-annual snow bird migration.

      We know that our engagement on behalf of the waterway users made a difference and we want to thank the U.S. Coast Guard for inviting our engagement in this project.

       
      See you this November in Charleston, SC!

    • UPDATE: LNM: AICW MM 240.7 Onslow Beach Bridge Construction, Camp LeJeune, NC


      NC – ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY (AICW) – NORTH CAROLINA CUT

      Mariners are advised that a construction firm, on behalf of U. S. Marine Corps. Base Camp Lejeune, will continue to construct a new bridge to replace the Onslow Beach Swing Bridge across the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, mile 240.7, at Camp Lejeune, NC. Construction activities which began in October 2022, are expected to finish in February 2025. During the construction period, outside of the extended closure periods listed below, to facilitate construction and installation of the new bridge superstructure, the new bridge will be maintained in the closed-to-navigation position from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., and the existing Onslow Beach Swing Bridge, will open on demand, from noon to 1 p.m.; Monday through Friday; excluding Federal holidays, from October 7,
      2024, through December 20, 2024.
      Vessels unable to safely transit the new bridge with the reduced clearances during the non-extended closure periods above from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., should:
      (1) adjust their voyage plan, if able, to transit through the new bridge and the existing bridge outside of the closure period or from noon to 1 p.m. during the closure period, or
      (2) if not able to adjust their voyage plan, may transit through the bridges upon arrival, if at least a 24-hour prior notice is given to the onsite project foreman.
      To facilitate construction of the bascule span (structural steel), the new bridge will remain in the closed-to-navigation position and will not be able to open at any time during the extended bridge closure periods, as reflected below:
      Primary Closure Timeframe:
      from 7 a.m. on Monday, November 4, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 7, 2024
      from 7 a.m. on Monday, November 18, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 21, 2024
      Alternative Closure Timeframe:
      from 7 a.m. on Tuesday, November 12, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Friday, November 15, 2024
      from 7 a.m. on Monday, December 2, 2024, through 9 p.m. on Thursday, December 5, 2024
      During all closure periods above, the new bridge will have a vertical clearance of approximately 15 feet above mean high water in the closed position and a horizontal clearance of approximately 20 feet. Vessels that can safely transit through the new bridge with the reduced clearances may do so at any time.
      At all other times, the existing Onslow Beach Swing Bridge will operate in accordance with Title 33 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 117.821(a)(1), and the new bridge will remain open to navigation.
      To facilitate construction of the new bridge fender system, a work barge will be placed in the navigation channel of the new bridge from 8 a.m. to noon, and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.; Monday through Friday, excluding Federal holidays from October 7, 2024, through 5 p.m. on December 20, 2024. The work barge will be located in the navigation channel of the new bridge which will reduce the horizontal clearance of the new bridge to approximately 20 feet.
      Two barges, a support vessel, and crew boat will be operating or stationed in the vicinity of the existing and new bridges. Temporary work platforms will be in place for the duration of construction of the new bridge and demolition of the existing bridge. The work barges, work vessels and bridge tender may be reached on VHF-FM channels 13 and 16, and the onsite project foreman may be contacted at 910-520-1319, when work is in progress or vessels are operating the area. Mariners should navigate the waterway with extreme caution and due regard for prevailing conditions on the waterway.
