Public Notice: Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Southeast Marine Operations Hub Project (Pier Romeo Recapitalization)

May 2023

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO) proposes to recapitalize Pier Romeo (the Pier) through the replacement of the existing pier (the project), located on the southern bank of the Cooper River at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), at 2234 South Hobson Avenue, North Charleston, South Carolina (NOAA site). The project requires demolition and reconstruction of the existing mainframe pier to support the docking of NOAA vessels, Nancy Foster and Ronald H. Brown, as well as other visiting government vessels.
