design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in order to protect
surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed, operated, and
maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control
Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control measures must be
such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow
sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the
project.
c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed, operated, and
maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Surface Mining Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in accordance with the
requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.

Pamlico Sound.
Ivey Johnson, Dare County
FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT
Page 2
PROJECT SETTING
This proposal involves a vacant 0.87 acre site located on the west side of NC 12, south of Wimble
Shoals Subdivision, adjacent to the Pamlico Sound in the village of Rodanthe in Dare County.
This site is approximately 3,000 feet northwest from the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Chicacomico
Historical Life Saving Station. The applicant's property is platted and recorded as a lot in Corbin
Shores Subdivision. The property is adjacent to the Marc L. Lazarus property to the north, and the
Ronald Tremblay property to the south.
The lot elevation is between 3 and 4.5 feet above the Normal Water Level (NWL). This lot was
recently impacted by Hurricane Isabel by ocean over-wash that occurred after ocean front dunes
were washed out. This resulted in significant scouring that not only eroded significant existing
wetland areas, but also areas of adjacent uplands and driveway areas. The original elevations and
grade were restored after the storm. This work was authorized via a CAMA Emergency Dredge
and Fill Permit (07H .2500).
The area directly adjacent to the shoreline of the Pamlico Sound includes some estuarine beach.
The lot width is approximately 55 feet, and except for some wetland fringe areas adjacent to the
Pamlico Sound and the small gut-type creek that crosses the west end of the property, the majority
of the property is upland. This creek also crosses the adjacent property to the north where it
connects to the Pamlico Sound. This creek is approximately 20 to 25 feet in width and is less than
1 foot in depth. A narrow (approximately 1-2 feet wide) wetland fringe of mostly Juncus
roemerianus existed along most of this creek's shoreline. Some `404' wetlands were located
adjacent to the shoreline, as well in some isolated pockets between the creek and the Sound. The
creek bottom consisted predominately of muck with little or no emergent vegetation within the
creek channel. No shellfish species were observed during the time of this field investigation;
however, some small or juvenile finfish were observed. Navigation within this creek is limited by
existing water depths. A wooden vehicular bridge crosses this creek on the adjacent lot to the
north approximately 5 feet off the common property line. This bridge is used to provide access to
a newly constructed house on the `Marc Lazarus' lot.
The waters of this portion of the Pamlico Sound are designated by the Environmental Management
Commission as `SA' waters, but are currently closed to commercial shellfish harvests. These
waters are classified as Coastal Waters by the North Carolina Marine Fisheries and Wildlife
Resources Commissions. These waters also are designated by the Coastal Resources Commission
as Public Trust Area and Estuarine Waters.
Archeological sites have been identified in the vicinity of the USCG Chicacomico Life Saving
Station which is located approximately 3,000 feet to the south.
Ivey Johnson, Dare County
FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT
Page 3
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The permit applicant proposes to construct a 12 feet wide, pile supported, elevated vehicular
bridge crossing to access an upland home building site area along the shoreline of this lot adjacent
to the Pamlico Sound. The proposed bridge site is 15 feet north of the "southern-most" property
line. The proposed bridge structure will be 30 feet in length and will be supported with six, 6-
inch piles. This bridge, as proposed, will provide a 3 feet clearance above the creek NWL and the
adjacent wetland fringes located along the creek shoreline as measured from the proposed
structure's lowest joist member. This application indicates that a bridge abutment bulkhead will
be placed landward of the creek waters and wetland areas. Upland development will include a
concrete drive access to the bridge and a gravel surface on the remainder of the driveway areas.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed bridge structure, prior to Hurricane Isabel, would have resulted in the shading of
less than 30 square feet of coastal wetlands. There is currently very little if any wetland fringe
remaining at the present time. The proposed bridge structure will result in the shading of 264
square feet of shallow water habitat and Estuarine Waters that directly connect to the Pamlico
Sound. The proposed bridge will not limit or reduce existing drainage or tidal flows from or into
this creek. The proposed bridge will not significantly impact Public Trust associated navigation
access or coastal resources that are known to exist in the vicinity of this project. This project
proposes no fill within any Public Trust Area or vegetated wetlands. This project will impact
approximately 1,800 square feet of upland area with compacted, impervious surfaces associated
with the bridge approaches and driveway area.

RE: Ivey Johnson Bridge Project #03147
The enclosed information is for the above referenced project, currently under review for Major
CAMA Permitting. After speaking with you today, you indicated that your project file only
included a Major CAMA Application and a site plan. The complete Major CAMA package
included a project narrative in the form of a letter to Dennis Hawthorn of Div. of Coastal
Management (DCM) from Doug Dorman from Quible.
The purpose of this correspondence is to address a comment letter addressed to Ivey Johnson
from Tom Steffens from DWQ, from December 21, 2003. I left a message with Tom today and
he is being copied with this information. The letter asks about the amount of fill into 404
wetlands. This information is indicated on the site plan and is addressed in the narrative letter that
should have accompanied the CAMA application. It is indicated on the site plan and narrative
that 1,674 s.f of section 404 wetlands are proposed to be filled. This application is a joint
application between DCM and US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for wetlands fill. The
letter also asks to provide additional information about the proposed swimming pool. The
proposed pool footprint as shown on the site plan is not located within any areas of jurisdictional
wetlands nor is it located within the 30 ft vegetative buffer.
I hope we have adequately supplied necessary information so that the project review can continue.
If any additional information is required, please call Brian Rubino (252) 261-3300 from Quible
since we are working as the authorized agent for the CAMA Permitting process.
Sincerely,
Brian Rubino
Quible & Associates, P.C.

Cyndi,
the following have been entered into fp5. I will generate all of the
hold letters for the ones indicated by HOLD,
EXCEPT for Ruth Jolly Wilson. They have applied for a Coastal Gen , but
they do not qualify due to it being platted and recorded in the
applicants name in jan of 2002, nor do they have a valid septic permit.
and all of the impacts ( commercial building in zone I) including the
proposed septic system occur in zone I or II . Since we do not deny
applications , it, it should be placed on hold until they apply for a
major variance. This is an Oracoke project, has hot political
ramifications. Better from you than me initially.
