Back River Flooding and Shoaling Citizens Committee- Report to
City Council- August 2007
Findings:
11) The permit application for dredging at the mouth of the Back
River and for the restoration of the Factory Point peninsula is already
underway by the city of Hampton’s consultant, URS.
12) Short term solutions require local dollars; long term solution will
require regional partnerships and/or state and federal help.
Recommendations:
1) Obtain all necessary state and federal permits as soon as possible and
restore( dredge) the boating channels near the mouth of the Back River.
Use suitable dredged material to restore the Factory Point peninsula,
and employ appropriate measures to protect the shoreline along that
peninsula of land.
2) Immediately install and maintain electronic tidal measuring devices on
inside/outside of Back River and along other locations in Back River.
Monitor water level fluctuations before and after the breach repair at
Factory Point.
3) Immediately institute 5 mph “ No Wake Zone” in the vicinity of Factory
Point.
4) Strengthen flood plain management efforts of the city ( FEMA flood
plain map update, development in adjacent shoreline areas, flood
insurance awareness, mitigation grants for raising houses, erosion
control, etc)
5) Develop and implement a shoreline management/protection plan along
Hampton’s Chesapeake Bay shoreline from Factory Point to Fort
Monroe. This should include other shoreline areas in Back River ( using
breakwaters and/or other measures as appropriate) and other measures
as appropriate ( 1980 Dune Act).
6) Increase maintenance of the city’s storm drain system and increase
public awareness/education of protecting waterways and drainage
systems. Enforce laws against illegal dumping.
11) Continue the Back River Flooding and Shoaling Citizens Committee
to monitor the progress of these recommendations and consider
enlarging the committee in the future to address ongoing waterway
maintenance and shoreline protection issues.
