Jaybird Shoals Given Low Priority By Corps in I'KRRY r<)PK A spokesperson lor the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Tuesday thai a sandbar north of Caswell Beach known as Jaybird Shiuls isn't out of hoi water yet. Jaybird Shoals remains low on lite list of si\ potential sites from which to borrow sand for a dredg ing project to benefit Kure Beach in New Hanover County. The actual shoals area i^ Unrated in Brunswick County. The idea of losing Brunswick County sand to help benefit beaches in another county has created a con tfoversy among the Corps office, Brunswick County beach residents and county officials "Obviously, that's not the borrow area we would like to use." said Don Fore, project manager for the Corps' Carolina Beach Area South beach renourishment economic study. "There is nothing simple about that borrow area. It would be expensive for the towns, as far as their limitations are concerned." Fore said reports last week that Jaybird Shoals had been dropped from the list of six potential dredge sites was not true. However, since the economic study began last year, the shoals has been placed on a low - er priority because of [Kissihie sites closer to Pleasure Island. He said the entire issue has been "blown out of proportion.** Officials from Yaupon Beach, Long Beach, Caswell Beach and Brunswick County Commissioners have written to the Corps's office asking that any sands from Jaybird Shoals be used to renourish crwling shorelines on Brunswick County beaches. Letters were also addres sed to U.S. Congressman Charlie Rose and State Rep. E. David Red wine, who in turn wrote letters to the Corps office. Fore said. The "campaign of letters" result ed in a statement by the Corps" Wil mington office last week, addressed to the beach umns and officials in Brunswick County that said the Jaybird Shoals area was a "less than optimum source" for the (Vioher 1^% dredging project Fore said a "hopper" dredge would have to be used w ith several Nvisters to pump the sand the dis tance to Kurc Beach. The shoals area was originally se lected as the best site because of its 50 million cubic \ arils of available sand when the project only calK lor three million cubic yards in its first phase. "It was kind ol a surprise to me." said Carol \\tord. stud) manager for the Corps otlice in Wilmington, about the published reports last week that plans to use Jaybird Shoals had been dropped. She had been working on the economic stud> which determined it would cost more than S4S million to pump the sand onto Oak Island beaches. Fore said there are six potential sites for the Pleasure Island project and that Jaybird Shoals is still on his list. That list includes an upper bor row area of pockets available for dredging on Pleasure Island and an estuarine borrow area along the shoreline on the back side ol the is land "Either one of those two would be about hall as expensive as using Jaybird Shoals," Fore said. How ever. they involve environmentally fragile areas that might not receive approval from the state. Oilier possible sites include an of I shore borrow area of sandbars up to five miles south of Kure Beach and material front a realignment of the channel of the Cape Fear River, Fore said. "We're still very, very much in the planning stages." Fore said. All Our Customers Are "Deer" To Us! We really appreciate your business. Merrv Christmas!
