PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to excavate a channel through a shoal located at the mouth of Yeopim River and the Albemarle Sound. 'r FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT: ALBEMARLE PLANTATION PAGE #2 NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION The project site is a shoal area located 1900 ft ESE from Drummond Point, Chowan County in the mouth of Yeopim River and the Albemarle Sound. The site is located- near the approximate boundary of Chowan and Perquimans counties. The bottom in the general area of the proposed development is sandy with water depths ranging from -4 ft to -8 ft below normal water level (NWL). The applicant has constructed a 212 slip marina upstream of the development site that is capable of accommodating vessels up to 60 ft long. The water depths at the marina range from -6 ft to -8 ft. Vessels that use the marina access Albemarle Sound via a marked channel that crosses the shoal area. The waters of Yeopim River in this area are classified as SC and are closed to shellfish taking. The waters of Albemarle Sound in this area are classified as SB and are open to shellfish taking. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL In order to provide safe navigation passage for vessels that use the existing marina, the applicant proposes to excavate the shoal area that crosses the existing marked channel from Albemarle Sound to Yeopim River. The applicant proposes to dig a channel through the shoal area to a water depth of -7 ft below NWL. The proposed channel will be approximately 747 ft long and 48 ft wide at the top of the channel bottom and 30 ft wide at the bottom. The bottom material will be excavated from a barge by a crane and the spoil will be placed in a scow and transported to a marine contractor's docking facility adjacent to the Chowan River Bridge, US 17, Chowan County. The spoil will be off loaded to dump trucks and transported to an upland disposal site known as the Waff Contracting Mine Site, NCDENR DLQ Mining Permit #16-1, in Chowan County west of SR 1204. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS The development proposal will disturb approximately 35,856 sq ft of Public Trust Area and Estuarine Water Areas of Environmental Concern. Approximately 2,374 cubic yards of bottom material will be removed and placed at the upland disposal site. Negative environmental impacts appear to be largely temporary in nature, and this project should mitigate the frequent increase in water turbidity associated with transit of vessels with minimal bottom clearance. An environmental assessment has been completed and a finding of no significant impact was issued on May 11, 2003 for this project.

The proposed. development, as outlined in the Environmental Assessment (EA), includes dredging a new channel within the Yeopim River to access the Albemarle Sound. The project need is to allow for safe passage of water vessels accessing the Albemarle Sound. The proposed channel dimensions include a 30-foot wide bottom, 48-foot wide top, with a depth of 7-feet below normal water level (NWL). The new channel will extend along a 747-foot long area approximately 1,900 feet off of Drummond Point, beyond the NWL, and would be oriented in a north-south direction; more specifically, 303 feet from the existing navigation green daybeacon # 3, extending 444 feet north of the same daybeacon. Dredge spoil disposal will be placed on an approved high ground area. . This EA/FONSI are prerequisites for the processing of a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major permit application by the Division of Coastal Management. It is concluded that the proposed project will not result in significant impacts to the environment provided that it can be permitted and subsequently developed consistent with the State guidelines in the Rules of the Coastal Resources Commission and the avoidance/mitigation measures contained in the EA.
