Jordan Macy DEP WQC AUTHORIZATION # New England District Army Corps of Engineers 24-WW07-0002-APP Department of the Army 401 WQC Application Completion on 696 Virginia Road 5/30/2024 Concord, MA 01742-2751

RE: Application for: BRP WW 07 - 401 WATER QUALITY CERTIFICATION FOR

DREDGING - MAJOR PROJECT

AT: Cape Cod Canal Section 111 Shore Damage Mitigation Project Cape Cod Drainage Basin and South Coastal Drainage Area

Dear Mr. Macy:

The Department of Environmental Protection (“MassDEP”) has reviewed your application for a 401 Water Quality Certification for Major Dredging, as referenced above and is basing its certification upon an evaluation of the information contained in the application which is relevant to water quality considerations. In accordance with the provisions of Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq.), M.G.L. c. 21, §§ 26-53, and 314 CMR 9.00, MassDEP has determined there is reasonable assurance the project or activity, as conditioned herein, will be conducted in a manner which will not violate applicable water quality standards (314 CMR 4.00) and other appropriate requirements of state law.

The waters off of the Scusset Beach borrow area which is part of the South Coastal Drainage Area, and waters off of the Town neck Beach placement areas which is part of the Cape Cod Drainage Basin are designated in the Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards as SB. These waters are designated as a “habitat for fish, other aquatic life and wildlife, and for primary and secondary contact recreation”. Anti-degradation provisions of these Standards require that “existing uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing uses shall be maintained and protected.”

The above-referenced project involves the dredging of approximately 327,000 to 387,000 cubic yards (cy) of sediment from a nearshore burrow area off of Scusset Beach and the

Cape Cod Canal Section 111 Shore Damage Mitigation Project

401 WQC 24-WW07-0002-APP

beneficial reuse as nearshore and beach nourishment material at the town-owned beach in Sandwich, Massachusetts (Town Neck Beach). Beneficial use of the dredged material for placement and construction of an engineered dune and beach berm at Town Neck Beach will allow the sand to stay in the littoral system and will build a beach profile protect public and private property, infrastructure, and an expansive saltmarsh system located behind the beach.

As identified in the April 12, 2023 letter from the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) to the United States Army Corp of Engineers and the Environmental Assessment prepared by Army Corps of Engineers dated February 20231,2, the project is located near three separate areas which have been mapped as containing eelgrass (Zostera marina). Eelgrass beds provide one of the most productive habitats for numerous marine species and are designated “special aquatic sites” under the Federal Clean Water Act 404(b) (1) guidelines. Eelgrass has been mapped adjacent to the nearshore and beach nourishment placement area at the Town Neck Beach. Conditions 14 through 17 below discuss eelgrass survey, documentation, and mitigation requirements related to protection for the existing bed located adjacent to the nearshore and beach nourishment (disposal of dredged material) area at the Town Neck Beach.

Sediment Chemistry Results: The United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) developed a project-specific sampling and analysis plan which was conducted as part of the Suitability Evaluation and the project Environmental Assessment. The USACE collected sediment grab samples at ten locations within the burrow site dredge area for grain size analysis.

The sediment of the dredge area is characterized as predominately poorly graded, fine to coarse sand material. Materials sampled from the proposed placement locations was likewise found to be sand or sand and gravels materials. A suitability evaluation was provided by USACE, which concluded that the dredge sediment was compatible/suitable composition for placement and beneficial reuse as nearshore and beach nourishment at the Town Neck Beach in Sandwich, MA,3.

Additional Protective Measures: The USACE claims sovereign immunity with respect to dredging activities.4 However, MassDEP strongly recommends that conditions provided below for the disposal of dredged material also be followed (when applicable) for the

March 31, 2021.

2 Letter from Timithy Timmermann, US Environmental Protection Agency, to John Kennelly, to USACOE, dated

April 9, 2021.

3 Email from Paula Kulberg, US Army Corp of Engineers, to Phillip Nimeskern, US Army Corp of Engineers, dated

June 23, 2016.

4 The scope of sovereign immunity regarding state regulation of the proposed activity has not been definitively resolved. The Department does not address this issue at this time and reserves all rights to assert jurisdiction on future projects.

proposed dredging activity to be conducted to prevent degradation to wetlands and waters of the Commonwealth and to maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the water resources of the Commonwealth.

MassDEP requests that a bathymetric survey of the burrow site depicting post-dredge conditions be conducted following the completion of the dredging. At a minimum, the survey should include an overlay of the dredge footprint (i.e., top of slope) with sufficient coordinates in the Massachusetts State Plane (e.g., longitude and latitude) to clearly delineate the dredge footprint.

Every effort should be made to limit dredge vessel and/or barge overflow at dredge site and within waters of the Commonwealth.

Public Notice: The application public notice was published in the Sandwich Enterprise on February 9, 2024. No comments were received by MassDEP during the 21-day public comment period pursuant to 314 CMR 9.05(3)(e), which ended on March 1, 2024.

Section 61 Findings: As the Applicant, the USACE did not prepare an Environmental Notice (ENF) or Environmental Impact Report (EIR) in accordance with M.G.L. .c 30, §§ 61 to 62H including (MEPA). Rather, the USACE prepared a Draft Finding of No Significant Impact and Environmental Assessment (March 2021) as required under the National Environmental Policy Act.

Requests for amendment received after March 2nd will be considered at MassDEP’s discretion. This condition is necessary to protect water quality because it ensures that the project proponent is using planning and construction practices that will maintain the integrity of the site hydrology and maintain the aquatic resource functions and values.

9. Nearshore and beach nourishment activities shall be carried out in accordance with the MassDEP Guide to Beach Nourishment Best Management Practices (March 2007), any procedures developed by the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management. Nearshore and beach fill material should be of appropriate slope and grain size to avoid premature loss from the beach and transport impacts to nearshore eelgrass beds. Beach nourishment and grooming equipment (e.g., excavator, delivery/dump truck) should be staged upland of intertidal habitat to minimize impacts and avoid compaction of sediment in mapped shellfish habitat.

10. Dredged material placed in accordance with 314 CMR 9.07(6) shall not be a solid waste and is not subject to 310 CMR 16.00: Site Assignment Regulations for Solid Waste Facilities and 19.000: Solid Waste Management. Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.07(6), this condition is necessary to ensure that the dredged material is reused properly and is of suitable quality to be placed in these locations.

11. Nearshore and beach nourishment activities shall not occur from April 1st through

August 31st. Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.07, this condition is necessary to avoid adverse impacts on Rare Species Habitat and the prohibited take of state-listed species, as detailed in the MA Endangered Species Act review conducted by the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program for the proposed beach nourishment site.5

12. In order to avoid impacts to threatened and endangered species, the eelgrass growing season, anadromous fish passage, and shellfish spawning season, in-water or silt producing work, including, but not limited to nearshore/beach nourishment placement, work shall occur from October 1 – March 15.6 Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.07(3)(d), this condition is necessary to protect water quality by ensuring that the project proponent is using planning and construction practices that will maintain the aquatic resource functions and values in accordance with recommendations by the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries.

13. Daily inspection of the dredging activity and nearshore and beach nourishment placement activities at Town Neck Beach shall be conducted by the USACE or its contractor. If any material other than compatible beach nourishment material is observed, the applicant shall direct the dredging contractor to cease dredging operation and conduct an investigation regarding the nature of the to the suspected material. If the suspected material is determined to be incompatible as beach

nourishment material, the applicant shall remove the suspect material and dispose it appropriately after consultation with the Department.

14. A pre- and post-dredging/construction eelgrass survey shall be conducted at the documented eelgrass bed present adjacent to the beach nourishment and nearshore placement areas to observe eelgrass bed location and conditions after disposal of dredged material is completed. The survey should be conducted according to MA DMF Eelgrass Survey Guidelines. The eelgrass surveys shall be depicted on a plan with a scale of 1 inch equaling 20 feet. The pre- and post-construction eelgrass data and map shall be submitted to MassDEP, MA Division of Marine Fisheries and MA Office of Coastal Zone Management with 60 days of the completion of the post-placement survey. This condition is necessary to protect water quality because it ensures that the project proponent is using planning and construction practices that will maintain the integrity of the project site and maintain the aquatic resource functions and values.

15. A minimum of 75-feet shall remain unaltered between the edge of eelgrass and the slope of the placement areas, unless otherwise approved by MassDEP, with the exception of the two isolated areas where eelgrass has been observed at project stationing 7+33 and 13+24. At the two isolated areas, a minimum of 25-feet shall remain unaltered between the edge of eelgrass and the slope of the placement areas.

16. If the results of the three year monitoring period indicate a loss of eelgrass or that an alteration has occurred resulting from the project at the beach nourishment and nearshore placement areas, the applicant shall develop and submit a proposed mitigation plan to MassDEP within 60 days of quantification of such alteration for review and written approval, and a copy of the proposed mitigation plan shall be submitted to MA Division of Marine Fisheries and MA Office of Coastal Zone Management for review and consultation. Upon receiving MassDEP’s written approval of the proposed mitigation plan, the USACE shall implement the approved mitigation plan in accordance with a schedule approved by MassDEP no later than two years after identification of the alteration, unless a different timeframe is requested by the USACE and is approved by MassDEP. The USACE may propose to amend the mitigation plan prior to project implementation if necessary. The amended plan needs to be approved by MassDEP. The obligation to develop a mitigation plan and/or perform mitigation activities as a component of this project is subject to the availability of funds remaining for the project that is within the federal $12.5M program limits established by Congress for Section 111 projects and in accordance with the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1968, as amended. USACE shall reserve $100,000 of the funds for this project for eelgrass mitigation. USACE shall work with DMF to use these funds. If there are remaining project funds after the monitoring period, those funds may be applied to the mitigation, in addition to the $100,000 reserved funds. Any additional funds are also subject to the federal program limit of $12.5M established by Congress for Section 111 projects, to develop and implement a mitigation plan acceptable to MassDEP, to the extent appropriate based on the amount of observed project impact to eelgrass.

17. The dredge vessel and/or barge shall never be anchored within the identified eelgrass habitat bordering the proposed dredging and nourishment placement sites.

There shall be no equipment (including pipes) placed within 25 feet of the edge of the eelgrass beds. Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.07(3), this condition is necessary to ensure that potential adverse effects to vegetated shallows are avoided.

18. Run-off from the sediment slurry after it is pumped onto Town Neck Beach shall be directed away from the eelgrass areas shown on the project plans located adjacent to the beach.

19. Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.06(6)(a)8., storing, servicing, or cleaning of equipment, including but not limited to fueling, changing, adding, or applying lubricants or hydraulic fluids, or washing/rinsing of trucks or equipment, shall be performed outside wetland resource areas. This condition ensures that no hazardous materials from equipment are inadvertently discharged into the water resource area in which construction is occurring, which would otherwise degrade water quality.

20. Pursuant to 314 CMR 9.06(6)(a)8., during the project period, there shall be no discharge or spillage of fuel, oil, or other pollutants, including sediments, onto any part of the site. The applicant shall take all reasonable precautions to prevent the release of pollutants by ignorance, accident, or vandalism. This condition is necessary to ensure that construction practices are implemented in such a manner as to prevent degradation to wetlands and waters.

21. The dredge vessel and/or barge shall not be allowed to ground. Pursuant to 314

CMR 9.06(6)(a)8., this condition is necessary to ensure that potential adverse effects to land under ocean are avoided.

22. Four weeks prior to commencement of dredging activity, the applicant shall submit a notification procedure outlining the reporting process to MassDEP for incidents relating to dredging activities that impact surrounding resource areas and habitats including, but not limited to, observed dead or distressed fish or other aquatic organisms, observed oily sheen on the surface of the water, a sediment spill, and a barge or equipment accident/spill. If at any time during implementation of the project such an incident occurs, the applicant shall immediately notify MassDEP and all site related activities impacting the water shall cease until the source of the problem is identified and adequate mitigating measures are deployed to the satisfaction of MassDEP. This condition is necessary to protect water quality because it ensures that the project proponent is using proper monitoring and construction practices that will maintain the aquatic resource functions and values.

23. Upon completion of the project, remnants of project debris shall be removed and disposed of appropriately at an offsite facility.

Failure to comply with this 401 WQC is grounds for enforcement, including civil and criminal penalties, under M.G.L. c. 21, § 42, 314 CMR 9.00, M.G.L. c. 21A, § 16, 310 CMR 5.00, or other possible actions/penalties as authorized by the General Laws of the Commonwealth.

This 401 WQC does not relieve the applicant of the obligation to comply with other appropriate state or federal statutes or regulations. Any changes made to the project or supplemental documents will require further notification to and, if an amendment is required, approval by MassDEP.
