The oversheeting will preferably be accomplished using PZ35 steel sheet pile. This is an American manufactured sheetpile product and it is the strong preference of the design team and the owner. During the last project we had anticipated using the same PZ35 section, however, at the time of construction there was no inventory of PZ35 and none was to be rolled for several months; the AZ26 section was utilized instead. The AZ26 has a deeper profile than PZ3; PZ35 is 13-inches and AZ26 is 16-inches. Based on this information, and allowing fora 3-inch separation between the existing bulkhead wale and the new steel sheet pile for placement of the backfill, we anticipate that the front to front separation for sheeting will be 30-inches with PZ35. [f AZ26 sheetpiling is utilized, the separation will be 32-inches. We must leave the existing 12 inch wale in place while the new sheets aze driven because they form the frontal support and load distribution for the tie-back anchorage system. We have added a detail to the application drawing sheet 4a, copy attached, to cover this design issue. I trust that you will find it adequate and sufficient for your processing. Please let me know if the need for further discussion or infornation arises, I will be happy to meet with you at your convenience, if you deem it necessary.

The waterfront is approximately 1,250 feet of wharf and terminal ferry landing facilities, built originally by the US Army in the eazly 1900's and later transferred to the Department of Agriculture. Plum Island, and the PIADC, is now owned and operated by the United States Government's Department of Homeland Security. Plum Island is a secured Federal facility, on land owned entirely and solely by the Federal Government. There aze no public trust issues associated with this site. Public access is prohibited and actively enforced by armed guazds. The Plum Island Harbor facilities are at the southerly end of the island. The terrain is generally flat in the azea of the harbor infrastructure with gently sloped surrounding terrain and mostly paved over sandy gravel earthen material operational surfaces built up landward of the bulkhead wharf facilities to support ferry operations of asemi-industrial transportation hub nature. The top elevation of the ground surface behind the bulkhead in the project azea is approximately 10 feet and is at or above the Coastal Erosion line as typically applied to Town of Southold coastal sites. The Coastal Erosion limit line cuts across the entrance channel 300 feet south of the work area and all aspects of this project aze landwazd of it. The developed nature of this shoreline is industrial in nature, paved and substantially protected. There is no tidal wetland vegetation on the work site and no submerged aquatic vegetation in the adjacent neaz shore waters. This project is the restoration of one section of the steel pile sheet bulkhead at and the east ramp landing facilities. The scope of work for this project will be undertaken in one construction contract. One element of the work is to install a new steel sheet pile bulkhead immediacy seawazd of the existing bulkhead, in the azea of and immediately adjacent to and east of the Plum Island's ferry landing ramp in the east side of the hazbor. This bulkhead suffered from extensive corrosion and material failure. The tie-back system is corroded and deteriorated substantially and the sheets have been damaged by the weaz and teaz of ferry operations and the relentless exposure to marine waters. The new bulkhead will be set, seawazd of the existing steel sheet pile system which will remain, but cut-off to act as toe stabilization of the new bulkhead. The sheet piling will be backfilled with crushed stone so as to provide lateral stability to protect the existing sheets from further surface erosion and oxidation. The damaged section of the existing bulkhead, in effect, will be buried. All of this work will be seawazd of the high tide line. 1 The other major element of this project is to install a new, heavy duty vehicle ramp just to the east of the existing ramp along the same section of the bulkhead. This ramp facility will be pile mounted to eliminate settlement due to heavy loads. This supplemental narrative has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of State and Federal permit agencies and the Town of Southold's Ordinance No. 6, 2004, and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program related to docks and shorefront improvements. This project site is landward of the Coastal Erosion limit line. This project is exempted from provisions of the NYS Coastal Management Act and is so listed in Appendix D. Pertinent factors for consideration under Section 661 of the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation regulations for Tidal Wetlands and adjacent areas are addressed herein but the emphasis is that neither tidal wetlands nor SAV exist in or immediately adjacent to the work site and no impact to those resources, if they exist nearby, will result from the project. The proposed work falls within the scope of the US Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit No. 3. PROJECT PURPOSE This existing bulkhead system was built approximately 40 years ago. The system has corroded and deteriorated under climatic conditions and routine wear and teaz and must be oversheeted in order to provide the PIADC facility with viable, structurally sound vehicle loading slips at Plum Island for essential transportation of materials, equipment and personnel on a daily, all-weather basis. ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS The Federal Government owns Plum Island in its entirety. The nearest adjacent property is the tip of Orient Point almost a mile to the west which is also owned by the Federal Government and utilized for the point of access for primazy electrical and water service to Plum Island. PHOTOGRAPHS Photographs of the project site, as released by the Department of Homeland Security, are attached herewith. PROJECT ALTERNATIVES There aze only three real options to pursue at this time to maintain the operational efficiency and capacity of the transportation system. • Do nothing • Repair and restore the existing facilities, as is, or • Replace and modify the facilities in some way During the underwater diving visual inspection two yeazs ago, holes were observed in the steel sheeting neaz the point of embedment indication substantial loss of section and structural stability. The existing facilities have been burdened with vehicle loads beyond original expectations. The "do nothing" option is not considered viable or appropriate because the existing bulkhead is in such condition that failure to repair and protect the structure will necessitate the discontinuance of its use in the near future. Collapse or failure of the bulkhead would close the east ferry slips. 2 The second optioi~very limited. The scour damage to tl~ulkhead runs for the westerly so 1 foot or so of the steel sheeting. There is no good, cost effective method of repairing 40 year old corroded steel in an underwater marine exposure without driving new steel sheeting or pouring new concrete with that in mind. Over sheeting becomes the most economically feasible option. The third option is complete replacement of the facilities. This would be the most costly and would require the ferry operations to be out of the west slip for the longest period of time and for both reasons, represents a hardship. Pursuing this course of action would however, yield a more or less maintenance free operation for decades. The new ramp structure will be mounted so as to avoid potentially damaging pavement surchazge loads to the bulkhead backfill. The new bulkhead would have a tieback anchor system. SEQUENCE OF WORK As mentioned in the introductory paragraph, this project is to restore the bulkhead and ramp at the east ferry ramp landings at Plum Island in accordance with guidelines set forth by the State of New York DEC and the Town of Southold ordinance No. 6, 2004. With regard to the swpe of work for this project in Plum Island east hazbor, the sequence of work will be as follows: ? The work area will be prepared, including pavement removal and excavation of existing gravely, sandy backfill to clear the way for new repair and restoration construction. ? Obstructions will be removed as necessary to make way for the layout of the new work. It is envisioned that the ferry landing ramp sheet pile bulkhead walls will be installed utilizing the following general sequence and methodology. ? The marine contractor will arrive by bazge with deck-mounted crane, push or tug boat and at least one work boat. Ground equipment will be on the bazge or be trucked onto the site and delivered to Plum Island on the ferries. ? The existing ramps, supports and fenders /dolphins, if necessary, will be removed to make way for the installation of the scour wall. ? The new sheeting will be installed while the ramp is out of position. These sheet piles will be driven at the general locations shown in the application drawings immediately in front of the existing wall. Crushed stone backfill will be placed between the new and existing bulkhead sheets. ? The hinged ramp will be reinstalled to match pre-existing conditions. ? The gravely backfill will be excavated down to approximately the mean high water line to minimize backfill loads on the existing bulkhead. ? Bulkhead tie-back anchor rods will be cut and re-installed to the new anchor system driven behind the concrete wall. ? Wood fender piles and the wood wale system on the top of the existing bulkhead will be re- attached as necessary to complete this phase of the installation. REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 97-25 OF THE WETLANDS LAW The permittee acknowledges that the validity of this permit is subject to the approval of other governmental or municipal authorities. 3 The permittee d by the acceptance of this permit some all responsibility for operations undertaken p>~t to this permit, and shall take all ~autions for the prevention of injuries to persons and property resulting from such operations. The permittee gives consent to the State or Town and its officers, employees and agents to enter upon the premises where such operations aze being conducted to make such inspections to determine whether said operations aze being conducted in conformity with the permit; such inspections are governed by the operating rules and regulations of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, PIADC. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing one week prior to initiation of any and all operations, and likewise the NYS DEC on forms provided in the permit. The permittee will notify the Trustees and State DEC in writing upon completion of operations such that the site can be inspected for issuance for a certificate of compliance. In response to Town of Southold Local Law Number 6, the following additional information is offered. 1. Permits for the work aze being applied for through the Town and NYS DEC. This project is exempted from a coastal zone consistency determination by the NYS DOS and this has been confirmed with the DOS. This project is covered by the US ACOE Nationwide Permit No. 3. 2. Any facilities constructed of wood, will be of sturdy, durable and stable materials; in all likelihood, CCA pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine or Greenheart piles, with one or multiple 1" minimum galvanized bolts per connection and wrapped with galvanized cables, if required for clustered piles. 3. It is respectfully requested that the use of CCA pressure-treated piles (as an option to Greenheart piles) and timbers be approved for this project if Greenheart is unavailable or they are determined to be the most advantageous option to PIADC. 4. The 15-foot property line cleazances specified in this pazagraph should not be an issue; the entire island is owned by the Federal Government. 5. Upon receipt of the permit (if required) for this project, appropriate permit numbers and / or certificates will be affixed to the most seawazd face of the center bumper for identification from the water. 6. There will be no modifications to the ramps, decking and railing. One azea light on Plum Island will be moved to be cleaz of the tie-back anchors as will the electrical service panel. 7. There is no need to provide adequate room for afive-foot passage way on the upland. Terminal facilities are Federally owned and operated, subject to the security provisions of Homeland Security installations. Public access is prohibited. US Armv Corps of Engineers - This project is covered under Nationwide Permit #3 of the US Army Corps of Engineers for repair and restoration of the bulkhead, basically "in kind and in place". 4 NYS DEC Tidal Wetlands Regulations -Sections 661.5 and 661.9 This project represents the repair of existing, long-standing bulkhead and a new ferry landing at Plum Island with no adverse environmental impacts and no further encroachment into tidal waters. This facility was most recently re-built in the mid-1990's and has been routinely maintained since that time. There aze no tidal wetlands vegetation within several hundred feet of the site and no SAV in the waters adjacent to the wall. A ferry landing on the waterfront is considered to be generally compatible use in an adjacent area (AA) with a permit being required under Section 661.5 (b) (1), 15 and 24. This project however, is repair and restoration of existing facilities with no new encroachment. Under Section 661.9, the standazds for issuance of permits of NYS DEC regulations, the following are considered to be pertinent considerations. The policies are created to preserve and protect tidal wetlands and prevent their despoliation and destruction and that regulated activities will not have an undo adverse impact on the present or potential value of the affected tidal wetlands. This new ramp and bulkhead restoration project for the ferry terminal is compatible with public health and welfaze policies of the State specifically referenced under Section 661.6. ? The project complies with development restrictions contained in Section 661.6 as this is repair and restoration of an existing, long-standing facility that has previously undergone review by the Department in rendering previous permits. Furthermore, the project supports the continued operation of along-standing, high-priority, secured Federal installation and the waterfront ferry facility structure is compatible with the use of the site, zoning and the long- standinguse ofthe site. ? This project will not have an undo or adverse impact on the present or potential value of nearby tidal wetlands vegetation. There are no tidal wetlands in the Plum Island terminal hazbor; all of the terminal shoreline is developed shorefront. Construction materials will be in accordance with the NYS DEC standards and Town of Southold regulations and laws as previously addressed. Town of Southold - LWRP. NYS DOS Coastal Consistency These application documents include a copy of the Town of Southold Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) work sheet addressing what would customarily be pertinent sections of the plan. The NYS DOS has suggested that since the Coastal Management Act does not apply to this project, neither does the LWRP. Nonetheless, the following policies from the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program would normally be appropriate and have been identified as pertinent to this application and the reason for consistency associated with this project is outlined in each respective case. Policy 2 -Water Dependent Uses -This project is to retain a fully functional water dependent use of a ferry terminal facility for an essential transportation to and from this site. Policy 5 -Use of Existing Developed Shorefront -This project will be primarily to repair and restore existing shore /ferry interface structures, cleaz of sensitive habitat or tidal wetlands and make them safe and reliably usable in all weather conditions. 5 Policv 7 - Sienificant Fish & Wildlife Habitat -Protection of significant fish and wildlife habitat has been considered in the development of this project layout and the waters around Plum Island are classified as essential fish habitat, however, the actual terminal is an industrial facility in a man- made harbor, not representative of desirable natural habitat. In any case, these facilities will be restored in kind. Policv 8 -Protection & Preservation of Habitat -Protection and preservation of habitat has also been considered in this project and the terminal facility is being kept to its minimal configuration consistent with standards of the industry and restrictions set forth in the Wetlands Law, No. 6, 2004 set forth by the Town of Southold. The ferries will operate at the same location and within the same footprint as the current operation. There aze no significant changes to the dimension or configuration of the bulkhead and ramp facilities. Policy 11 -Minimize Damage to Natural Resources - The bulkhead repair and restoration project has been laid out in the same footprint so as to be consistent with and so as to minimize impact to natural resources as identified in Policy 7 above. There is no sensitive fringe wetlands growth and there is no submerged aquatic vegetation in the sub-tidal zone where the work is to take place. Policv 14 - No Measurable Increase in Floodine - This project consists of repairs of ferry terminal facilities that will in no way adversely affect water flow and circulation in the hazbors flooding potential of the area. Flood levels all around Plum Island aze dictated by water levels in Gazdiners Bay and Block Island Sound and these structures will have no adverse influence on those flood levels. Policv I S - No DredQine -Dredging is not required in this project. The waters in this small man- made harbor is appreciably deeper off shore and the ferry azrival and departure maneuvering tends to keep the finer-grained sediments from accreting at the ramp landing sites of the proposed work. Policv 19 -Impact on Public Access - There is no public access to or usage of lands at this site; there is no intertidal zone. Thus, public access to the State's waters is not possible at Plum Island because of the design of the ferry terminal facilities and site security requirements. Plum Island is a secured Federal research facility where recreation or unsecured public access is not allowed; access is, in fact, prohibited in the interest of national security and the health and welfaze of the public. Policv 20 -Public Trust Compatibility with Existing AdioininQ Properties and Land Uses- Public Trust compatibility to existing adjoining properties and land uses has also been considered but is not relevant in this project. Policv 21 -Water Dependent Recreation -This project is consistent with water-dependent uses opportunities policies set forth in this section. The facilities will continue to be used for essential transportation at the ferry terminal. Policv 24 -Scenic Resources, Impairment or Loss - This policy is intended to prevent impairment or loss of scenic resources. The construction of the ramp facilities will not represent any new encroachment or structure which would create a loss of scenic resources. These terminals are industrial, working waterfront sites. The elevated northerly bulkhead section on Plum Island will be only a couple of feet higher than the existing facility and will not even be noticeable from the waters off-shore which are a minimum of a quarter- mile distant. 6 Policv 25 -Enhance Overall Scenic Quality - The new ramp facilities will be consistent with the scenic quality of the area and prevent loss of scenic resources as described in Policy 24 above. The refurbished facilities will hardly be noticeable in context with the other existing facilities which dominate the shore of the harbors and again, these are industrial nature working waterfront sites and the repair work is confined to the developed shorefront. Policv 44 -Preserve and Protect Tidal Wetlands -There is no tidal wetlands on this project site. While the terminal facilities abut dune and tidal wetlands vegetation areas, this project will have no adverse impact on wetlands vegetation which exists elsewhere in and beyond the harbor facilities. SUMMARY This project is to restore a longstanding bulkhead at and adjacent to the east ramp and install a new vehicle landing ramp and associated facilities for the US Department of Homeland Security at Plum Island. A copy of all US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS DEC and Town of Southold applications aze attached as substantiation for this project. The Corps has indicated that ramp repair and restoration work may proceed under Nationwide Permit No. 3. This project complies with applicable standazds of the New York State Coastal Management Act (although not required to do so), Town of Southold Local Ordinance No. 6, 2004 and Local Waterfront Revitalization Program and is a presumptive compatible use under NYS DEC Regulations Part 661; its approval is respectfully requested.

Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP provided that the Board considers the following: In the event that the action is approved the following BMP is required pursuant to: § 275-11. Construction and operation standards. A. General. The following standards are required for all operations within the jurisdiction of the Trustees: (2) Erosion control. Installation of an erosion control structure is necessary during any building, grading, landscaping or site work activity within Trustee jurisdiction. This structure may include, but is not limited to, installation of a silt fence, hay bales, wood chip berm and silt booms. The placement of the erosion control structure(s) shall be determined by the Trustees or their designee. All intertidal construction and excavation requires the installation of a silt boom that will retain all suspended sediments within the immediate project area. Require the installation of a silt boom in areas where practicable. Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

(Signerure or Ppp6canq FORM - 0 11 617.20 Appendix A State Environmental Quality Review FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasurable. It Is also understood that those who determine signlflcance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may not be technically expert in environmemal analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particulaz area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the question of significance. The f ull FAF is intended to provide a met hod w hereby applicams and agencies can be assured that the determination process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full FAF Components: The full FAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1 : Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from aproject or action. M provides guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or w hether it is a potentially-large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced. Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Pan 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the impact is actually important. THIS AREA FOR LEAD AGENCY USE ONLY DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE--Type 1 and Unlisted Actions Identify the Portions of FAF completed for this project ©Part 1 ®Part 2 ?Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this FAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting information, and considering both the magnitude and imponance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: A. The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect (or this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONm negative declaration will he prepared.' C. The project may result in one or more large arW importam impacts that may have a signif icant impact on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.

Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Page 2 for evaluation criteria. X Yes _ No Not Applicable The new loading ramps for vehicles and passengers and bulkhead oversheeting make appropriate use of an existing waterfront site and complies with environmental design factors published by the NYS DEC Tidal Wetlands Regulations. Southold Local Law No. 6. 2004 and the Southold LWRP. The new bulkhead will basically be driven immediately in front of the existine bulkhead. Piles will remain about 6' above the finished grade of the bulkhead. There will be no impairment of water flow or navi atg ion• Policy 2. Protect and preserve historic and archaeological resources of the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III -Policies Page 3 through 6 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable Policy 3. Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III -Policies Pages 6 through 7 for evaluation criteria Yes No X Not Applicable This site is restricted to public access. The terminal site and hazbor facilities aze visible from the water only when directly south of the line of the harbor. The onlyportion of the proposed work visible to anv extent is the hazbor from the south and at a distance: the chan eg s in apvearance will hazdly be noticeable. The only land side visual access affected by this project is at the terminal site and the industrial nature of the site and ferry landing facilities will be unchanged by the repair work. 3 - NATURAL COAST POLICIES Policy 4. Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion. See LWRP Section III -Policies Pages S through 16 for evaluation criteria. Yes _ No X Not Applicable The proposed bulkhead restoration will take place in the harbor and is acknowledged to be in a flood-prone area; there is little damagine wave exposure at this site. Nonetheless, the bulkhead has been designed to accommodate complete submersion and resist hvdrostatic uplift pressures due to flooding. The project site, in fact all of the ferry terminal facilities are landward of the Coastal Erosion limit line. Policy 5. Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III -Policies Pages 16 through 21 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable This project will not have any affect on suitability of or availability of drinking water. Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystems including Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats and wetlands. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Pages 22 through 32 for evaluation criteria. X Yes No Not Applicable This project is consistent with this policv because it proposes minimal work in an azea of no tidal wetlands or submerged aquatic vegetation. With regard to the use of CCA pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine in the course of construction, the NYS DEC prepared a studv showing that the proposed pressure-treated Southern Pine timber products construction materials aze suitable for this type of project in this location. The design pazameters shown on the drawin¢s provides an optimum balance between acceptable design and access standazds without adverse environmental impact Policy 7. Protect and improve air quality in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III -Policies Pages 32 through 34 for evaluation criteria. Yes _ No X Not Applicable There are no air quality issues related to thisproiect. No emissions will be generated by the ferry landin fg acilitk 4 ~M Policy 8. Minimize environmental degradation in Town of Southold from solid waste and hazardous substances and wastes. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Pages 34 through 38 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable Any non-soil salvaged waste from the excavation and the pressure-treated wood trimmings from the Fender repairs and any steel bulkhead sheeting cut-offs from the demolition will be collected and disposed of in accordance with current regulations b~ licensed hauling contractor already providing such services to the PIADC facility and utilizing best management practices so as to minimize any harmful affect. PUBLIC COAST POLICIES Policy 9. Provide for public access to, and recreational use of, coastal waters, public lands, and public resources of the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III - Policies; Pages 38 through 46 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable This proiect is being built on Federal land. The public trust lands and waters typically constitutes the azea between the mean high water line and mean low water line and the resources are from the high tide line out, and there is none on this site. These environmental resources are being_protected by the design standards dictated by the Federal Government. There is no public use of the waterfront in this area and the repair of the ferry landine facilities mostly landward of the apparent high water line aze not likely to influence or change this fact. This Federal facility is exempted from the NYS Coastal Management Program and the PIADC is specifically listed as such in the CAM act Appendix D. WORKING COAST POLICIES Policy 10. Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water-dependent uses in suitable locations. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Pages 47 through 56 for evaluation criteria. X Yes No Not Applicable This project is to repair the ferry landmg bulkhead at [he Plum Island ferry terminal, a higl, i priority, water-dependent use. This usage is defined as water-dependent in the LWRP because the operation~rovides essential transportation access to and from the mainland. Ferry access is the only form of transportation to and from the island. 5 Policy 11. Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in Long Island Sound the Peconic Estuary and Town waters. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Pages 57 through 62 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable This facility is not used for commercial fishin¢ or shellfish industries or enterprises. Policy 12. Protect agricultural lands in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III -Policies; Pages 62 through 65 for evaluation criteria.

The oversheeting will preferably be accomplished using PZ35 steel sheet pile. This is an American manufactured sheetpile product and it is the strong preference of the design team and the owner. During the last project we had anticipated using the same PZ35 section, however, at the time of construction there was no inventory of PZ35 and none was to be rolled for several months; the AZ26 section was utilized instead. The AZ26 has a deeper profile than PZ3; PZ35 is 13-inches and AZ26 is 16-inches. Based on this information, and allowing fora 3-inch separation between the existing bulkhead wale and the new steel sheet pile for placement of the backfill, we anticipate that the front to front separation for sheeting will be 30-inches with PZ35. If AZ26 sheetpiling is utilized, the separation will be 32-inches. We must leave the existing 12 inch wale in place while the new sheets are driven because they form the frontal support and load distribution for the tie-back anchorage system. We have added a detail to the application drawing sheet 4a, copy attached, to cover this design issue. I trust that you will find it adequate and sufficient for your processing. Please let me know if the need for further discussion or information arises, I will be happy to meet with you at your convenience, if you deem it necessary. Yours Truly, DOCKO, INC Kedh B.
