Seward Freight Dock Expansion Project Summary

This multi-agency consultation and permitting file documents the proposed expansion of the Alaska Railroad Corporation's (ARRC) Seward Marine Terminal Freight Dock in Resurrection Bay, Alaska, involving the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (MARAD), Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC), and the City of Seward. The project involves extending the existing freight dock by 114 meters (375 feet) through three phases, including placement of approximately 134,800 cubic yards of fill below the high tide line over 4.75 acres, installation of sheet pile bulkheads, rock revetments, and mooring dolphins in Resurrection Bay. Construction activities will include vibratory and impact pile driving, fill placement, and road improvements, with in-water work anticipated to occur intermittently over approximately 12 months beginning November 2026 and lasting through May 2028. The project aims to improve cargo handling efficiency, accommodate larger vessels, and enhance dock safety and operations for freight customers.

The permitting documents establish comprehensive mitigation requirements and monitoring protocols including protected species observer (PSO) protocols, marine mammal shutdown and monitoring zones, and vessel operating procedures to minimize impacts to listed species including fin whales, humpback whales, Steller sea lions, and sunflower sea stars. ARRC commits to implementing an artificial reef mitigation project at a 1:1 ratio to offset 4.7 acres of filled tidal habitat, with Phase 1 construction estimated at $500,000 and subsequent phases funded contingently. The project received incidental take authorization for up to 2 fin whales, 13 Mexico Distinct Population Segment humpback whales, 1 Western North Pacific DPS humpback whale, and 790 Western DPS Steller sea lions through Level B harassment from pile driving noise, with no permanent hearing injury anticipated. Water quality certification from ADEC and biological opinions from NMFS and USFWS confirm compliance with the Clean Water Act Section 401, Endangered Species Act Section 7 consultation requirements, and Marine Mammal Protection Act provisions, with final permitting issued January 5, 2026.

Permit Conditions:

General Conditions:

1. The time limit for completing the work authorized ends on January 31, 2031.

If you find that you need more time to complete the authorized activity, submit your request for a time extension to this office for consideration at least one month before the above date is reached.

2. You must maintain the activity authorized by this permit in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. You are not relieved of this requirement if you abandon the permitted activity, although you may make a good faith transfer to a third party in compliance with General Condition 4 below. Should you wish to cease to maintain the authorized activity or should you desire to abandon it without a good faith transfer, you must obtain a modification of this permit from this office, which may require restoration of the area.

3. If you discover any previously unknown historic or archeological remains while accomplishing the activity authorized by this permit, you must immediately notify this office of what you have found. We will initiate the Federal and State coordination required to determine if the remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

4. If you sell the property associated with this permit, you must obtain the signature of the new owner in the space provided and forward a copy of the permit to this office to validate the transfer of this authorization.

5. If a conditioned water quality certification has been issued for your project, you must comply with the conditions specified in the certification as special conditions to this permit. For your convenience, a copy of the certification is attached if it contains such conditions.

6. You must allow representatives from this office to inspect the authorized activity at any time deemed necessary to ensure that it is being or has been accomplished in accordance with the terms and conditions of your permit.

Special Conditions:

1. This permit does not authorize the Permittee to take an endangered species, in particular the Fin Whale (Balaenoptera physalus), the Humpback Whale, Mexico DPS (Megaptera novaeangliae), the Humpback Whale, Western North Pacific DPS (Megaptera novaeangliae), Humpback Whale, Central America DPS (Megaptera novaeangliae), the Steller Sea Lion, Western DPS (Eumetopias jubatus), Sei Whale (Balaenoptera borealis), Blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus), the Gray Whale, Western North Pacific DPS (Eschrichtius robustus), the North Pacific Right Whale (Eubalaena japonica), the Sperm Whale (Physeter macrocephalus), the Killer Whale, Southern Resident DPS (Orcinus orca), or the Cook Inlet Beluga Whale (Delphinapterus leucas). In order to legally take a listed species, the Permittee must have separate authorization under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) (e.g., an ESA Section 10 permit, or a Biological Opinion (BO) under ESA Section 7, with “incidental take” provisions with which you must comply).

The enclosed Biological Opinion (BO) contains mandatory terms and conditions to implement the reasonable and prudent measures that are associated with “incidental take” that is also specified in the BO. Authorization under this permit is conditional upon compliance with all of the mandatory terms and conditions associated with incidental take of the enclosed BO, which terms and conditions are incorporated by reference in this permit. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions associated with incidental take of the BO, where a take of the listed species occurs, would constitute an unauthorized take, and it would also constitute noncompliance with this permit. The FWS or NMFS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with the terms and conditions of its BO, and with the ESA.

Project Purpose, Description, and Location

Project Name: ARRC Seward Freight Dock

Dates of the proposed activity are planned to begin and end: 11/01/2026 to 05/31/2028

Location: The proposed activity is located within Section 3, T. 001S, R. 001W, Seward Meridian, in Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. Project Site (Latitude, Longitude): 60.119403, -149.42465.

With potential discharge location(s) as follows: 60.118364174256605, -149.4246481895447 60.131632324662895, -149.42554941177372

Purpose: The Alaska Railroad Corporation (ARRC) proposes to expand and improve the existing Seward Alaska Marine Terminal (Terminal) Freight Dock and associated transportation corridor within the Alaska Railroad Terminal Reserve (Reserve). The project will improve safety and efficiency for the movement of goods by better separating pedestrian traffic from freight and heavy truck traffic, enhance the safety and efficiency of stevedoring activities, preserve the intermodal operations of commercial freight customers, accommodate larger vessels, and enhance the long-term utility of the dock.

The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Maritime Administration (MARAD) will partially fund the project with a Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) grant. Additional support is provided by a partnership with the City of Seward. As this project is intended to facilitate vessel-related operations, it would not be possible to site it away from the water.

Description: The proposed activity consists of dock expansion and road construction that will be in three phases. The applicant proposes to expand the existing freight dock to allow for additional berthing and cargo unloading space. The dock will be extended by 375 feet in tidal waters by placing 134,800 cubic

1 Reference EDMS Submission Ref Nbr: HQ5-NFPH-D1NES, Rcv 10/17/2024 12:18:00 PM yards of fill material over 4.75 acres below the High Tide Line (approximate elevation +13.8 feet above the 0.0-foot contour) of Resurrection Bay.

The proposed work would include the installation of piles below the Mean High-Water Mark (approximate elevation +9.7 feet above the 0.0-foot contour) the following totals are proposed for the project:

The new dock extension will be an Open Cell Sheet Pile TM (OCSPTM) bulkhead backed by a rock revetment, consistent with the existing dock. This type of bulkhead is a flexible steel sheet pile membrane supported by soil contact with the embedded steel sheet pile tail walls.

The dock face will be extended by 375 feet (ft); the usable width of the new extension will be 300 ft. The existing dock uplands will also be widened to 300 ft, further expanding the fill footprint and revetment to the east. The widening of the uplands, both the existing and new upland portions, will take place in up to three (3) phases. Dock upland facilities will be improved, including the installation and upgrades of dock utilities, rails, etc. The dock extension will include typical components, such as fenders, mooring bollards, sacrificial anodes, and bull rail. South of the new dock extension, a salvaged mooring dolphin and catwalk (new or salvaged) will be installed.

Temporary:

• 60, 24-inch diameter steel piles

• 2,157 steel H-piles (in post-fill uplands)

Permanent:

• 425 sheet piles

• 14 steel H-piles

• 14, 30-inch diameter round fender piles

• 4, 24-inch diameter round dolphin piles (to be removed and re-installed)

The proposed road will replace an existing gravel rail yard access route with a two-lane gravel roadway, approximately 4,500 feet long with a 24-foot-wide driving surface. Up to 1,455 cubic yards of material will be excavated and up to 1,940 cubic yards of fill material will be placed in three wetlands (0.3 acres total) for road construction.

This project will fill 4.75 acres of waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) across three phases. 134,800 cubic yards (CY) of new and salvaged fill will be placed below the high tide line (HTL).

A detailed description of the components of the dock expansion is provided in the following sections.

In addition to the dock expansion, this project entails improvements to the transportation corridor connecting the dock to Alaska’s rail and road networks. The proposed road replaces an existing gravel rail yard access route with a two-lane gravel roadway. The new road will be approximately 4,500 ft long with a 24-ft-wide driving surface and a 4:1 fore slope with a base width spanning up to 60 ft. The road will be constructed of subgrade and base course material with compacted gravel surfacing. Four (4) 24” culverts will also be installed in the North section of the roadway to facilitate cross drainage considering the adjacent wetlands.

A detailed description of the components of the corridor improvements follows the description of the dock expansion.

Mobilization: Project materials will be transported to Seward via barge, rail, and road. The origination of the project vessel(s) will depend on the selected contractor’s means and methods, but it would likely be from Anchorage, Unalaska, or Seattle. Project vessels will comply with all pertinent regulations, including protocols for marine mammal impact avoidance and minimization measures listed in this document.

Dock Expansion: Dock expansion plans are shown in three phases in the project permit drawings. One or more or all the dock construction phases may be constructed during the in-water work year, depending upon project funding and contractor means and methods. Phase I (Sheet 5) extends and armors the existing dock on the west side of the sediment groin. Phases II (Sheet 6) and III (Sheet 7) widen and extend the dock on the east side of the sediment groin within the barge basin. For impact assessment, it was assumed that all the docks would be constructed.

For the activities described below, only a single pile-driving hammer will be operational at any given time.

This assumption was utilized in the assessment of potential effects on protected species.

Template Piles: Before the construction of the OCSPTM dock, a temporary template will be constructed to aid in sheet pile cell installation. Temporary template piles will be either steel pipe piles or H-piles driven using vibratory pile-driving equipment. The template will be removed using similar methods after the sheet pile cells are constructed. Quantities noted in Table 5 are either for pipe piles or for H-piles, not cumulative.

Sheet Piles: The dock extension will be an OCSPTM structure (bulkheads using flat-web sheet piles, fabricated connector wyes, and anchor piles). This type of bulkhead is a flexible wall constructed of steel sheet piles with embedded tail wall diaphragms supported by the soil. Piles will be installed with vibratory pile-driving equipment. Interlocking sheets will be driven in pairs to the required embedment until each cell is complete.

Anchor Piles: Anchor piles fabricated from H-piles with welded connectors will be installed at the end of each sheet pile tail wall using vibratory pile-driving equipment to further support the structure.

Fill Placement & Vibro-compaction: Gravel fill will be sourced by ARRC from a competitive source, existing stockpiles of materials, or a previously existing permitted source and may be stockpiled for the project at a designated bulk materials storage area within the Reserve or placed directly in the fill location.

Fill materials will be transported from the bulk materials storage area to the project site as necessary.

Following completion of each cell, fill materials will be placed behind the sheet pile with traditional earth-moving equipment (loaders, dump trucks, bulldozers, etc.) up to an elevation of +5’…
