White Castle, LA 70788

LOCATION OF PROPOSED ACTIVITY: Located in the Lower Mississippi -Baton Rouge Hydrologic Unit (HUC 08070100) within the Mississippi River Basin and the West-Central Louisiana Coastal Hydrologic Unit (HUC 08090302), within the Terrebonne Basin watershed. The proposed activity would affect waters of the United States and navigable waters of the United States associated with the Mississippi River and an unnamed tributary to Bayou Sigur. The project/review area includes the proposed mooring location in the Mississippi River, right descending bank, mile 191.7 (Latitude 30.187778°N, Longitude 91.128333°W), and the proposed stockpile area, located approximately 0.9 mile southeast of the proposed mooring location (Latitude 30.1890278°N, Longitude 91.106556°W). Both sites are located in Sections 9 and 12 Township 10S, Range 13E; near White Castle, Louisiana, in Iberville Parish.

PROPOSED ACTIVITY: The applicant is requesting a DA permit to install and maintain two 36-inch anchor piles and two monopiles to secure a barge for offloading of aggregate material for local construction projects. Pilings will secure an offloading barge (200' x 35') and aggregate barge (200'x35') while material is loaded onto trucks for transport to the nearby 10-acre stockpile site via existing roads. Anchor piles will be installed using land-based equipment, while barge-mounted equipment will be utilized for installing monopiles. A 20' x 100' construction corridor will be selectively cleared to allow for installation of one monopile. All vegetation will be mulched and remain in place at a depth of no more than 2 inches. No large trees will be cut. Approximately 4.3 cubic yards of rip rap will be placed around the piling that penetrates the revetment accordance with USACE revetment repair guidelines. At the stockpile location, a 10' buffer will remain between the waterways and stockpile. A 24' x 20' culvert will be installed in a waterway adjacent to the stockpile to allow access to the site. Impacts to jurisdictional waters total less than 0.1 acre, resulting in 0.05 acre of temporary clearing to forested batture, 0.3 acre of structural impacts and approximately 0.03 acre of fill impact to navigable waters, and the placement of 40 square feet of fill in the unnamed tributary.
