9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located at 5624 Captains Lane, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIWW), between Masonboro Loop Road and Masonboro Sound, in Wilmington, New Hanover
County. The lot is approximately five (5) acres with 200 ft. of shoreline frontage. The lot averages 10-
12 feet above mean sea level and the shoreline is stabilized by a bulkhead. The applicant maintains a
single-family residence on property and vegetation consists of lawn grasses, and landscape shrubs. There
is an existing private pier (80' long and 6' wide) on the property which terminates in a L-head platform
(16' wide X 20' long). There is an existing floating dock (6'x 16') located on the east side of the L-head,
that is in alignment with the pier. The pier and floating dock currently provide docking space for two (2)
vessels. The existing pier is within the established Wrightsville Beach Pierhead Line.
The Wrightsville Beach Land Use Plan classifies the waters of Masonboro Sound as Conservation, and
the adjacent highground in the project area as Resource Protection . The waters in the project area are
classified as SA-ORW by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. They are designated as a Primary Nursery
Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries, and they are open to the harvest of shellfish.
The applicant proposes to construct an addition to his private pier. The addition would consists of a 6'
wide by 16' long boatlift located on the south side of the existing platform (L-head). The addition of the
boatlift would provide dockage/storage space for up to three (3) vessels. The proposed boatlift will. be
located approximately seventy-five (75) feet north of the southern riparian corridor abutting Lutheran
Church Retirement and will be approximately one hundred-fifty (150) feet south of the northern ri
parian
line adjoining the Sue Mako property.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed boatlift would create an additional 96 square feet of partially covered open waters. The
total incorporation of estuarine waters and public trust area associated with the proposed boatlift would
be 96 square feet.
