MVN-2011-01439-CM

Published Oct. 16, 2017
Expiration date: 11/14/2017

NAME OF APPLICANT:  Fill Materials, LLC, 10557 Airline Hwy Saint Rose, Louisiana 70087

LOCATION OF WORK:  In the Mississippi River, left descending bank, at a point 164.8 miles above Head of Passes, at Convent, Louisiana, in St. James Parish, within the Mississippi River Basin in hydrologic unit (HUC 08090100), as shown on the attached drawings.

CHARACTER OF WORK:  The applicant has requested Department of the Army (DOA) authorization to extend an existing DOA permit which will allow for continued dredge and fill operations using a cutterhead hydraulic dredge for the removal of approximately 180,100 cubic yards of sand from the Mississippi River within an 8.3 acre area.  The material will be stockpiled in the batture at a previously permitted location and sold.  The dredging operation is to be located within an area approximately 1,900 feet long and 400 feet wide, extending lengthwise parallel to the mean low water shoreline, the outer edge to be about 400 feet channelward therefrom.

A preliminary analysis has determined that the proposed project would directly impact approximately 8.3 acres of jurisdictional water bottoms which will not require mitigation.
