The proposed work consists of the expansion of the existing pier and required maintenance to existing pilings.  In detail, the work consists of expanding the existing pier by 703 square feet that will require installing twenty-six (26) new 12" timber piles and replacing ten (10) existing deteriorated 12" timber piles.  The proposed expansion will occur between Mean High Water (MHW) and Mean Low Water (MLW) and the 10 pilings will be replaced beyond MHW in open waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The proposed wood pilings will be installed utilizing an impact pile driving hammer.  Portions of the proposed work is within the project area of a Federal Civil Works Project: Myrtle Beach Reach 2 Shore Protection Project.
