---------------------------
9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION:
The project property is a single-family residential home site with an existing residence at 413 Channel Drive in
Emerald Isle. This is in "The Pointe" community- of Emerald Isle, adjacent to Coast Guard Channel off of
Bogue Sound on the northwest side of the island. The property is 16,000 sf in size, averages +4' mhw in
elevation, and is vegetated with typical lawn grasses. There is a residence on the property, an existing pier and
L-head alongside a boat basin, and the shoreline and basin are stabilized with concrete bulkheads. The house is
serviced by an individual septic system and municipal .eater.
i_- ! l 7 M7
Lookine -
northwest
into Coast r
Guard
Channel " y d??; sou
The Emerald Isle Land Use Plan classifies this area as Conservation by- virtue of its location within a CAMA
AEC. The water quality classif ication is SA-ORW. The waters of Coast Guard Channel are open to the taking
of shellfish, and the area is not designated as Primary Nursery.
The existing bulkhead is in poor shape. The applicant proposes to install a vinyl wall 2' waterward of the
existing wall. In so doing, he proposes to continue the wall across the existing basin and close this feature. The
basin is presently approximately -6" nlw, and will require approximately 100 cubic yards of material to fill it to
yard grade. The overall proposed bulkhead length is 121', and the basin is 14' x 30'
The existing pier is toward the northeast side of the lot beside the basin. This pier is intended to be removed in
its entirety, and another structure constructed more toward the center of the lot. The new pier will be 28' in
length and 5' in width, with a 12' x 16' T-head at the end. Two boatlifts will be installed, one on each side of
the dock, each 12'x 12' in size. Both the existing and proposed pier extends 40' into the body of water, which is
in excess of 350' across.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
As proposed, the project will require the filling of approximately 1452 sf of high ground for tie-back
installation, 662 square feet of shallow bottom habitat for filling of the basin and new bulkhead installation,
and 620 sf of open water incorporation with the construction of the pier, dock, and boatlifts. It should be
noted that the shallow bottom habitat to be filled by the basin was high ground as recently as the mid to late
1970's, and is therefore not as productive as virgin shallow bottom habitat. The proposed use of this project is
private.
