This permit, issued on f a- t ( ? , is subject to compliance with the application (where consistent with the permit), all applicable regulations, special conditions and notes set forth below. Any violation of these terms may subject permittee to a fine, imprisonment or civil action; or may cause the permit to be null and void. (1) In order to protect juvenile shrimp and finfish populations, no excavation or filling will be permitted between April 1 and September 30 of any year without the prior approval of the Division of Coastal Management. (2) The excavation cut extending from the junction of Canal A with the western end of the entrance channel cannot exceed a width greater than 30' for 250' in both directions (south, into Canal A, and east into the entrance canal) in order to avoid excessive damage to the cordgrass wetland. (3) Dredging will not be accomplished closer than 5 feet to any emergent wetland vegetation with the exception of that area identified by condition #2. This will prevent undermining and loss of vegetation as a result of increased boat traffic in the canals. (4) Excavation will not exceed 6 feet below the mean low water (MLW) elevation in the finger canals A-D. (See attached sheet for Additional Conditions) This permit action may be appealed by the permittee or other qualified persons within twenty (20) days of the issuing date. An appeal requires resolution prior to work initiation or continuance, as the case may be. This permit must be accessible on-site to Department personnel when the project is inspected for compliance. Any maintenance work or project modification not covered hereunder requires further Departmental approval. All work must cease when the permit expires on December 31, 1988 In issuing this permit, the State of North Carolina agrees that your project is consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program. Signed by the authority of the Secretary of DNRCD and the Chairman of the Coastal Resources Commission. David W.

(6) All excavated materials will be confined above the mean high water and S landward of regularly or irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spillover of solids into any S marsh or surrounding waters. t (7) The diked disposal area will be constructed a sufficient distance from the mean high water level of any marsh to eliminate the possibility of dike erosion into or upon any marsh and/or surrounding waters. (8) The disposal area effluent will be contained by pipe, trough or similar device to a point at or below the mean low water level to prevent gully erosion and unnecessary siltation. (9) The terminal end of the pipeline will be positioned at or greater than fifty (50) feet from any part of the dike and a maximum distance from spillways to allow settlement of suspended solids. (10) A water control structure will be installed at the intake end of the effluent pipe to assure compliance with water quality standards. (11) The dike material will be provided a ground cover sufficient to restrain erosion within thirty (30) days of project completion. (12) The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent significant increases in turbidity outside the area of construction or construction- related discharge. NOTE: The permittee and/or his contractor is urged to meet with representatives from the local field office of DCM to discuss the permit conditions. Their number is (919) 256-4161. NOTE: The bottom. depths of the finger canal _system should be sloped towards the entrance channel and it in turn should be sloped towards Jinks Creek to improve water circulation. It is recommended that the southern halves of the four canals be dredged to -5' (MLW) >depth while the northern halves be dredged to the -6' (MLW) depth. The entrance channel should slope from -6' to -7' (MLW) depth. NOTE: The proposed project is certified under General Water Quality Certification No. 1273 issued on November 10, 1978, for discharges of liquid effluent from diked upland disposal areas. NOTE: An erosion and sedimentation control plan will be required for this project. NOTE The Brunswick County mosquito control officials should be advised of the planned work. Also, there is a high probability of a mosquito problem in old spoil site #1. Close proximity of people will make this problem more noticeable. The permittee should contact the Vector Control Branch, at (919) 733-6407 regarding appropriate mosquito control measures.

Project summary The Town of Sunset Beach desires to perform maintenance excavation of the existing four finger canals and the long entrance channel off of Jinks Creek and pump the spoil by hydraulic dredge to two adjacent spoil areas along Cobia, North Shore, and Riverside Drive. If , TOWN OF SUNSET BEACH PAGE 2 9(a) SITE DESCRIPTION: The project site consists of four finger canals and an entrance channel which was dug in the early 1970s out of the back side of Tubbs Inlet and connects to Jinks Creek in Sunset Beach. The original design dimensions measured 80' in width for the four finger canals by 820' in length; and the entrance channel measured 3,600' in length by 100' in width. Since maintenance excavation has not occurred in over ten years the coarse sand off of the adjacent unconsolidated banks have gradually filled in the canals and channel. At places extensive (approximately 1.2 acres) cordgrass marsh has volunteered along both banks and helped stabilize the slopes along with sea lavender (Limonium carolinium) and saltmarsh hay grass (Spartina patens). Only in Canal A and at it's junction with the western end of the entrance channel has the cordgrass significantly restricted the navigability of the canal system allowing for about 10' of width. Many portions of the finger canal system go nearby dry at low water and the entrance channel only averages about -2' MLW depth. A lot of shoaling has occurred at the Jinks Creek entrance as well. The canal system is classified as a secondary nursery area and the waters are SA. Two (2) relict spoil sites exist on the application. Spoil site #1 (which measures 780' x 420') is located.next to Tubbs Inlet lagoon and is bounded by Cobia Street and North Shore Drive. It has a heavy canopy of myrtle and eastern bacharras (groundsel) shrubs with an understory of mixed wetland type species comprised principally of saltmarsh hay, Sea ox-eye, Iva, Perry Wort and scattered patches spike grass. Poison ivy and similax vines also grow extensively on the site. Spoil site #2 appears to be a remnant dragline spoil area with no berms present. It is long (about 1,100') and narrow (200') and is comprised of mainly upland grasses. It also slopes towards the extensive saltmarsh to the north. Approximately 140 single-family lots were platted along the entrance channel on both sides and 128 lots surround the four canals. Approximately 70 cottages have been constructed on the 95' by 50' lots. 9(b) PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicants propose to perform maintenance excavation by hydraulic dredge which will establish a navigable dredge cut measuring 40' in width by -6' (MLW) in depth. The proposed length of the entrance channel will be 3,440 linear feet and the combined total length of the four finger canals will measure 3,280 linear feet. The 64,000 cubic yards of coarse sand dredge spoil will be pumped to two diked spoil areas where the clarified effluent will run either into the lagoon or into the dredge cut. Six foot high dikes are proposed on the adjacent 12.57 acred "upland" areas. The purpose of the work is to afford improved navigation of the canal system. r , TOWN OF SUNSET BEACH PAGE 3 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The project as proposed will cause the maintenance excavation of approximately 11,200 s.f. of volunteer cordgrass wetland and 5.91 acres of relatively unproductive coarse sand canal and channel bottom. Also approximately 7.52 acres of high marsh wetland would be spoiled upon within an old undiked spoil area. The excavation work could also cause the undermining of a significant amount of additional cordgrass fringe. Since the finish bottom depths will remain the same for the proposed work the flushing efficiently could be enhanced by alternative designs. Turbidity impacts will be minimal considering the coarseness of the bottom strata. The excavation activity should be timed to avoid those times of the year when biological activities are greatest. Construction of a reliable diked disposal area will also be an important part of this project. As a foreseen secondary impact the maintenance activity may also encourage more construction and result in more boat traffic and runoff into Jinks Creek.

This permit, issued on t `I I ( ` ()" is subject to compliance with the application (where consistent with the permit), all applicable regulations, special conditions and notes set forth below. Any violation of these terms may subject nPrmittPe to a fine- imorisonment or civil action; or may cause the permit to be null and void. (1) In order to protect juvenile shrimp and finfish populations, no excavation or filling will be permitted between April 1 and September 30 of any year without the prior approval of the Division of Coastal Management. (2) The excavation cut extending from the junction of Canal A with the western end of the entrance channel cannot exceed a width greater than 30' for 250' in both directions (south, into Canal A, and east into the entrance canal) in order to avoid excessive damage to the cordgrass wetland. (3) Dredging will not be accomplished closer than 5 feet to any emergent wetland vegetation with the exception of that area identified by condition #2. This will prevent undermining and loss of vegetation as a result of increased boat traffic in the canals. (4) Excavation will not exceed 6 feet below the mean low water (MLW) elevation in the finger canals A-D. (See attached sheet for Additional Conditions) This permit action may be appealed by the permittee or other qualified persons within twenty (20) days of the issuing date. An appeal requires resolution prior to work initiation or continuance, as the case may be. This permit must be accessible on-site to Department personnel when the project is inspected for compliance. Any maintenance work or project modification not covered hereunder requires further Departmental approval. All work must cease when the permit expires on _ December 31, 1988 In issuing this permit, the State of North Carolina agrees that your project is consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program.

(6) All excavated materials will be confined above the mean high water and landward of regularly or irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures. to prevent spillover of solids into any marsh or surrounding waters. (7) The diked disposal area will be constructed a sufficient distance. from- the mean high water level of any marsh to eliminate the possibility of dike erosion into or upon any marsh and/or surrounding waters. (8) The disposal area effluent will be contained by pipe, trough or similar device to a point at or below the mean low water level to prevent gully erosion and unnecessary siltation. (9) The terminal end of the pipeline will be positioned at or greater than fifty (50) feet from any part of the dike and a maximum distance from spillways to allow settlement of suspended solids. (10) A water control structure will be installed at the intake end of the effluent pipe to assure compliance with water quality standards. (11) The dike material will be provided a ground cover sufficient to restrain erosion within thirty (30) days of project completion. (12) The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent significant increases in turbidity outside the area of construction or construction- related discharge. NOTE: The permittee and/or his contractor is urged to meet with representatives from the local field office of DCM to discuss the permit conditions. Their number is (919) 256-4161. NOTE: The bottom.depths of the finger canal system should be sloped towards the entrance channel and it in turn should be sloped towards Jinks Creek to improve water circulation. It is recommended that the southern halves of the four canals be dredged to -5' (MLW) depth while the northern halves be dredged to the -6' (MLW) depth. The entrance channel should slope from -6' to -7' (MLW) depth. NOTE: The proposed project is certified under General Water Quality Certification No. 1273 issued on November 10, 1978, for discharges of liquid effluent from diked upland disposal areas. NOTE: An erosion and sedimentation control plan will be required for this project. NOTE The Brunswick County mosquito control officials should be advised of the planned work. Also, there is a high probability of a mosquito problem in old spoil site #1. Close proximity of people will make this problem more noticeable. The permittee should contact the Vector Control Branch, at (919) 733-6407 regarding appropriate mosquito control measures. DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS ,T P.O.

Project summary The Town of Sunset Beach desires to perform maintenance excavation of the existing four finger canals and the long entrance channel off of Jinks Creek and -pump the spoil by hydraulic dredge to two adjacent spoil areas along Cobia, North Shore, and Riverside Drive. TOWN OF SUNSET BEACH PAGE 2 9(a) SITE DESCRIPTION: The project site consists of four finger canals and an entrance channel which was dug in the early 1970s out of the back side of Tubbs Inlet and connects to Jinks Creek in Sunset Beach. The original design dimensions measured 80' in width for the four finger canals by 820' in length; and the entrance channel measured 3,600' in length by 100' in width. Since maintenance excavation has not occurred in over ten years the coarse sand off of the adjacent unconsolidated banks have gradually filled in the canals and channel. At places extensive (approximately 1.2 acres) cordgrass marsh has volunteered along both banks and helped stabilize the slopes along with sea lavender (Limonium carolinium) and saltmarsh hay grass (Spartina patens). Only in Canal A and at it's junction with the western end of the entrance channel has the cordgrass significantly restricted the navigability of the canal system allowing for about 10' of width. Many portions of the finger • canal system go nearby dry at low water and the entrance channel only averages about -2' MLW depth. A lot of shoaling has occurred at the Jinks Creek entrance as well. The canal system is classified as a secondary nursery area and the waters are SA. Two (2) relict spoil sites exist on the application. Spoil site #1 (which measures 780' x 420') is located.next to Tubbs Inlet lagoon and is bounded by Cobia Street and North Shore Drive. It has a heavy canopy of myrtle and eastern bacharras (groundsel) shrubs with an understory of mixed wetland type species comprised principally of saltmarsh hay, Sea ox-eye, Iva, Perry Wort and scattered patches spike grass. Poison ivy and similax vines also grow extensively on the site. Spoil site #2 appears to be a remnant dragline spoil area with no berms present. It is long (about 1,100') and narrow (200') and is comprised of mainly upland grasses. It also slopes towards the extensive saltmarsh to the north. Approximately 140 single-family lots were platted along the entrance channel on both sides and 128 lots surround the four canals. Approximately 70 cottages have been constructed on the 95' by 50' lots. 9(b) PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicants propose to perform maintenance excavation by hydraulic dredge which will establish a navigable dredge cut measuring 40' in width by -6' (MLW) in depth. The proposed length of the entrance channel will be 3,440 linear feet and the combined total length of the four finger canals will measure 3,280 linear feet. The 64,000 cubic yards of coarse sand dredge spoil will be pumped to two diked spoil areas where the clarified effluent will run either into the lagoon or into the dredge cut. Six foot high dikes are proposed on the adjacent 12.57 acred "upland" areas. The purpose of the work is to afford improved navigation of the canal system. TOWN OF SUNSET BEACH PAGE 3 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The project as proposed will cause the maintenance excavation of approximately 11,200 s.f. of volunteer cordgrass wetland and 5.91 acres of relatively unproductive coarse sand canal and channel bottom. Also approximately 7.52 acres of high marsh wetland would be spoiled upon within an old undiked spoil area. The excavation work could also cause the undermining of a significant amount of additional cordgrass fringe. Since the finish bottom depths will remain the same for the proposed work the flushing efficiently could be enhanced by alternative designs. Turbidity impacts will be minimal considering the coarseness of the bottom strata. The excavation activity should be timed to avoid those times of the year when biological activities are greatest. Construction of a reliable diked disposal area will also be an important part of this project. As a foreseen secondary impact the maintenance activity may also encourage more construction and result in more boat traffic and runoff into Jinks Creek.
