  • NAO-2025-00307 (Rudee Inlet Dredging and Beach Placement, Virginia Beach, Virginia )

    Expiration date: 5/23/2025

    : The City of Virginia Beach requests authorization to perform maintenance dredging of approximately 25.2 acres, by hydraulic methods, of the three (previously permitted) Rudee Inlet navigation channel frameworks (Federal Channel, Outer Deposition Basin, and Lake Wesley Channel), and the beneficial use of dredged materials for beach placement at the (previously permitted) Resort Beach (from 1st – 14th Streets) and/or Croatan Beach. Any material deemed unsuitable for beach placement will be transported via pipeline to the overboard placement area in Lake Rudee. The pipeline will be secured to the bottom utilizing concrete blocks and will have a minimum clearance over the pipeline of 7 feet. The purpose of the project is to provide safe navigational access for recreational and commercial activities, and to provide critical harbor of refuge for vessels traveling enroute up and down the Atlantic Coast. The City of Virginia Beach estimates that approximately 5.1 million cubic yards will be removed from the three Rudee Inlet navigation channel framework projects over the course of ten years.
