The applicant proposes to discharge 2,778 cubic yards (CY) of shell material in Galveston Bay to install a 250-foot by 100-foot shell pad for a proposed well structure for hydrocarbon exploration.  The applicant also proposes to dredge 4,369 CY of material from 6 acres of the open waters of Galveston Bay to create an access for the drilling barge to the proposed well.  The dredged material will be sidecast adjacent to the dredged access channel.  The drilling barge will require installation of 13 piling clusters driven 30 to 55 feet below the mudline for drilling barge stabilization.  A 10-foot by 20-foot well protector platform will be constructed after well completion.
