Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of Kitty Hawk Woods Partnership for Department
of the Army (DOA) authorization and a State Water Quality Certification to
place fill material in wetland swales to effect construction of a shopping
center, residential roads and driveways, multifamily housing and parking on
1,400 acres of maritime forest in Kitty Hawk, Dare County, North Carolina.
Your receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for
certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative
regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity pursuant to
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water
quality certification may be required under the provisions of Section 401 of
the same law. A DOA permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after
receipt of a request for certification is considered a reasonable time for
State action. Therefore, if your office has not acted on the request by
December 11, 1989, the District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Jim Poteat, telephone (919)
251-4637.
Sincerely,
ne I ht
AChief

INTRODUCTION:
Kitty Hawk Woods Partnership owns or controls approximately
1100 acres of property located in the Town of Kitty Hawk, North
Carolina. A large portion of this property consists of
undisturbed maritime forest. Tide forest areas cover a relic
ridge system and extend from areas fronting on tile, Currituck
Sound eastward to a present day dune line located in the Town of
Kitty Hawk. Throughout the maritime forest area, property is
characterized by high ridges and low swales between the ridges.
Most ridges run in a north/south direction. Most of the swale
areas between the ridges consist of areas of wetlands. Some of
these wetland areas are connected throughout an entire swale area
and some are isolated with no surface water connections.
For the purpose of this application, the partnership has
acknowledged the jurisdiction of the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers and further jurisdiction of certain agencies of the
State of North Carolina relative to the development of wetland
swales and pockets.
To understand this permit application, it is necessary to be
familiar with the steps that have taken place leading up to the
completed application itself. These steps are outlined in the
following paragraphs.
Primarily for economic reasons, the partnership began to
form plans for the development of a commercial area of property
located in the northeastern corner of the 1400 acre tract. The
commercial development proposed was the construction of a retail
shopping area. The most logical method of developing the
commercial area (which was already zoned properly for commercial
development) called for direct filling of certain areas of
wetlands.
The partnership had already explored separately the
possibility of developing a large area of maritime forest
consisting of approximately 450 acres located in the center of
the Kitty Hawk Woods. Because of zoning requirements applicable
to this property and because of the topography and the ridge acid
swale system that exists within the woods, options for
development of this area were more limited. The partnership
conceived of a proposal under which the large central area of the
maritime forest would be protected from development and placed
into public ownership. The original concept called for this
conveyance or dedica-tion to occur to offset or to mitigate the
fill. that might be required for the development of the commercial
area.
In order to determine whether this concept would be
acceptable, a preapplication meeting, was held on May 16, 1989.
The purpose of the meeting was to review tine areas of the
2
proposed project and the impact on wetlands and forest areas.
Among others who were present at the May 16th meeting were
representatives of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, The Nature Conservancy, North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission, North Carolina Natural Heritage
Program, North Carolina Division of Coastal Management and the
Town of Kitty Hawk. The meeting included a physical tour of the
property, consisting of a field trip to the center of the main
area of maritime forest arid trips to the - area proposed for
commercial development.
As a result of this first meeting, a direction was
established for proceeding with the permit- application. First,
it was clear that the agencies represented at this meeting felt
that conditional approval could be obtained for, some of the
proposed development based on the concept of mitigation proposed
by the partnership. This initial approval was very tentative and
would require considerable attention to detail in order to
address all of the concerns that were expressed by the agencies
represented. Second, it was clear that the permit application
would need to address all wetland impacts throughout the entire
1400 acre project controlled by the Bitty Hawk Woods Partnership.
In this way, the application would be all inclusive and would
serve several purposes. Future piecemeal development
applications could be avoided by single application. In
addition, control of the entire mitigation area at a time when
the area is owned arid controlled by one developer would allow the
mitigation concept to be adopted as broadly as possible arid
prevent future reductions in size or scope of the mitigation
proposal.
The meeting established three underlying concepts:
1. Avoid impact on wetlands where possible.
2. Restore and create wetlands to result in no net loss
where impacts are required.
3. Donate a significant portion of the maritime forest to
preserve the maritime forest habitat.
Due to an oversight in scheduling, representatives of the
Division of Environmental Management for the North Carolina
Department of Natural Resources and Community Development were
not present at the May 16th meeting. A separate meeting was held
with those representatives on July 12th.
A final meeting occurred on the 19th of July in which all of
the affected agencies were represented as listed above. Prior to
this meeting, the partnership had arranged for extensive
surveying and engineering work on the entire 1400 acre parcel.
Based on this work, the represented agencies were able to review-
3
physical surveys showing the location of wetland areas in all of
the properties.and the nature of the impact that was proposed for
each of these areas. Each of the major impacted areas were
reviewed in considerable detail with comments provided from each
agency as to the proposed development. These comments resulted
in changes to the proposed method of development for, the
commercial and multifamily sections of the project. In addition,
the comments and questions presented at the meeting of July 19th
resulted in compilation of additional information concerning all
areas of the project so that the full nature of impact on wetland
and forest habitat could be shown as a part of the permit
application.
The entire permit application has now been refitted to the
extent that it includes all areas owned or controlled by the
partnership, explains the nature of any wetland impacts and other
impacts as a result of the proposed development, sets forth the
details of mitigation and attempts to incorporate the comments
and requirements of the various reviewing agencies. Compromises
that were reached in the July 19th meeting between the reviewing
agencies and conflicting concerns of those agencies have been
incorporated into the details of the development plan and are
shown within the application.
In summary, it is important to note that this application is
a result of a series of meetings and that the impact on wetlands
for the entire 1400 acre project will be controlled under one
permit process. In addition, the development plans for each
portion of the 1400 acre project have been adapted to accommodate
the comments obtained from each of the reviewing agencies in the
on-site meetings.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The 1400 acre ownership is located generally to the west of
the, Sea Scape Golf Course and to the east of the Currituck Sound
and south of U.S. Highway 158 as it divides the towns of Kitty
Hawk and Southern Shores. Town zoning categorizes the property
into four classes:
1. Commercial- approximately 60 acres..
2. Multifamily - approximately 97 acres.
3. Single family residential lots - approximately 300
acres.
4. Single family residential lots low density (80,000
square feet minimum) - approximately 937 acres.

(Acreage figures shown above are approximate. Reference
should be made to each individual project later in this
permit application and the exact acreage figures which are
computed for all wetland impacts.)
Most of the acreage involving this project is included
within a large area of maritime forest. This area has been
designated by the State of North Carolina as one of the largest
contiguous maritime forests existing on the barrier islands. The
unique aspect of this application is the fact that so many acres
are controlled by one developer. This has allowed the permit
process to affect the total acreage referred to which includes
all. or substantially all of the Kitty Hawk Woods maritime forest
area. The opportunity to control the affect on this maritime
forest and to prevent fragmentation or development of the central
area of the forest is fairly unique.
The maritime forest area consists of forested ridge swale
systems with a north-south orientation. The ridges have
elevations of 5 feet to 25 feet above sea level. The
depressional swales lie between the 2 and 4 foot contours and are
designated 404 Wetlands by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. All
wetlands are flagged, surveyed and certified by Corps
representatives. The ridge flora contains mostly loblolly pine,
oak, hickory, dogwood, beech and holly. The plant composition of
wetlands is largely red maple, red bay and sweet gum except the
deeper wetlands which have cypress and black willow.
WETLAND IMPACTS/DEFINITIONS:
The focus of this application is the impact of proposed
development on wetland areas. Initially, the developer viewed
these impacts in two general categories. The first category was
the direct creation of new land by filling wetland area.s. The
second category was the incidental filling of wetland areas for
crossing systems using culverts to allow water flow between
divide-d wetland areas.
All affected wetlands within the project are areas
designated as forested wetlands. There are no ocean hazard
areas, no coastal wetlands such as marshes and all wetlands
impacts, whether by direct fill or by crossings involve the
maritime forest or wooded areas of the project.
As a result of the different meetings involving this
project, it has become clear that different agencies interested
in the project define wetlands in different ways. In addition,
the nature of the impact on wetlands and the type of wetlands may
be viewed differently by different agencies. For this reason, we
have developed a set of definitions relating to the wetlands that
will apply in the narrative and maps-for this permit.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. Connected vs. Non-connected. Early in this permit
prov,ess, the Corps of Engineers took the position that no
isolated wetlands exist. The developer has chosen not to argue
or contest that point as a part of this application. However,
certain areas within the project which are designated as 404
Wetlands are clearly not connected with adjacent bodies of water
by any surface water connection. These would include, by way of
example, areas in the center of the woods consisting of pockets
within ridge systems in which, water sometimes stands during
periods of heavy rainfall. Without attempting to label such
areas as isolated or adjacent wetlands, due to the jurisdictional
affect of such a label, the developers have nevertheless needed
to separately identify those wet areas. For this reason, we have
identified certain acreage as connected wetlands and certain
acreage as non-connected wetlands. It has been clear from the
conferences with the various agencies that a distinction between
such wet areas needed to be made and this is the method we have
used for that purpose.
2. Wetlands Impacted (Not Filled). For the purpose of this
permit, acreage calculations are shown labeling the area of
wetlands that are impacted by the proposed development but not
filled. The term "impacted" includes areas that are excavated,
cleared and those areas on which buildings or other structures
are to be constructed, including buildings on pilings.
3. Wetland Area to be Filled. Areas in this category would
be directly filled by fill material and could be distinguished
from those areas "impacted" as defined in the preceding
definition.
4. Total Area of 404 Wetlands. These areas are those
computed using the definition of wetlands in accordance with the
review of the property by representatives of the U. S. Army Corps
of Engineers. Wetland areas where construction is, proposed have
been,located and ide°fified by a private consultant, flagged and
surveyed a.,d the resulting information has been ?or will be
certified by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.
All affected wetlands within the project are areas
designated as forested wetlands. There are no ocean hazard
areas, no coastal wetlands such as marshes and all wetlands
impacts, whether by direct fill or by crossings involve the
maritime forest or wooded areas of the project.
The composite map accompanying this permit contains a
wetlands site data chart. In addition, each individual map shows
information setting forth affected wetlands and wetland site data
as it applies to each individual project. Those maps are coded
to identify- the different projects alphabetically. The

ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL STATUS:
The Kitty Hawk Woods partnership acquired title to the
majority of the acreage by purchase from F. Roger Page. The
partnership has owned the property since 1987. There are two
lenders holding mortgages on the property composing this project.
The first.is a purchase money mortgage covering areas of the
commercial section and certain acreage adjacent to the Currituck
Sound which is held by Roger Page. The remaining property is

INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS:
The following paragraphs described the different portions of
the entire 1400 acre project. Each individual section is
identified as a separate project with an explanation of the
nature of the proposed development and the wetlands impacts.
I. Commercial Shopping Center Project.
This project is located in the northeastern corner of the
1400 acre project and is generally south of U.S. 158 and west of
the Sea Scape Golf Course. Zoning covers an area of
approximately 60 acres zoned for commercial development by the
Town of Kitty ' Hawk. Within the commercial zone, the
characteristic ridge system exists so that the western side of
the 60 acres contains most of the high ground along with a
separate ridge on the eastern side and generally- wet. areas
located in t:Yie center. In addition, several smaller separated
areas exist that are not directly connected with the large suet
area in the center of the property.
The developer proposes to create a commercial shopping
center on this site. The main portion of the center would be
located in the existing high ridge systems with supporting
parking and roadways also located on the ridges. However, in
order to accommodate access to the property and to allow for
sufficient parking to meet town requirements, and to provide the
most economical development of the property, it is necessary to
fill certain wet areas. Approximately 1.01 acres would be filled
for the-purpose of providing access roads leading south from U.S.
158 at or near the intersection with Juniper Trail. The roadway
would be filled for a width of 40 feet to a height of 1-•5 feet
with a right of way of 60 feet. A second category of fill
consists of 8.61 acres of wetland which would be filled to a
height of 1-5 feet for parking and building adjacent to the major
development on the higher elevation areas. The total estimated
fill area for the 60 acre project is 9.62 acres. The area
impacted but riot filled is approximately 0.64 acres.
Because of the nature of the commercial parcel, extensive
mapping was required for this permit. Most other- projects
addressed by this application did not require as much information
to be shown on maps and surveys. The commercial project did
require a storm water plan. Application for approval of the
storm water plan is in progress and will be filed prior to
completion of the 404 permit application process with the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management. Only the
commercial project required a detention pond system. Certain
ponds are shown on the information attached with this
9
application, although the entire storm water treatment and runoff
plan is not shown. However, as a result of the July meeting, the
large area for a storm- water pond was relocated out of the
wetlands areas to the extent that relocation was possible.
Approximately 0.63 acres could riot be relocated.
This commercial site contains the highest market value
property within the entire 1400 acre site. For, economic reasons,
the developer needs to be in. a position to develop the acreage
specified including those areas with fill in order to be able to
pay the obligations to creditors outstanding for the entire
project.
As a result of the last on-site meeting, the location of the
roads within the commercial section has been rearranged so that
the southern 800 feet does not require fill in connected
wetlands.
As mentioned in other parts of this application, the.
commercial site contains the only significant area of direct fill
to create property for development use (as opposed to areas of
fill for wetland crossings.) It is important in this context to
recognize the location of the commercial area within the entire
1400 acre project as well as its location with refererice to the
maritime forest and other areas surrounding this project.
Bordering the commercial area on the north is a main access
highway providing approach to the Outer Banks. This highway is
already developed and improved for six lane traffic. To the east
of the commercial area is the western edge of the dune system
that continues easterly to the Atlantic Ocean shoreline. This
area has already been developed with a combination of roadway
intersections, residential development and commercial
development. The western side of the commercial site is bounded
by a large (95 feet in width) power line easement providing power
service to the central portion of the Outer Batiks. On the
opposite side of the power line easement is a residential
subdivision that has already been developed.
A review of all of these adjoining areas will show that the
commercial site itself is already isolated from the largest areas
of ecological concern. -

II. Multifamily Site.
The multifamily site is located to the south of the
commercial site described in Project I above and is generally
bounded by the Sea Scape Golf Course on its eastern boundary and
the North Carolina'Power right of- way for a main transmission
line on the west. The property is presently zoned for
multifamily use and existing high ground within the multifamily
site would allow a density of approximately 225 townhouse or
condominium units on a total of 97 acres. Wetland fill for road
crossings totals approximately 0.84 acres of roadway. Roads in
this area would be constructed with 40 feet of width and 28 feet
of ABC stone base and 2 inches of I-2 asphalt paving. The
largest portion of the crossings are required to connect the
eastern and western areas of high ground presently divided by a
large swale containing standing water. Attached hereto is a
wetland description prepared by John Fussell. Reference is made
to this description..

plan for the multifamily site has
Some of these changes are emphasized
a. The original proposal called for excavation of
a large central area of wetlands to create a large pond
or lake. The developer has abandoned this aspect of
the jzoject. The only large area of this kind is the
exis ing open waterway located in the southeastern
corner of the multifamily project.
b. The developer had originally intended to
provide two main wetland crossings and create a loop
system through the wetland area. The developer has
reduced the crossings to one single crossing area and
has abandoned the loop roadway.
C. Representatives of the reviewing agencies in
the July meeting felt that a relocation of the roadways
and buildings in the project would be desirable if it
would save the ridge systems. The consensus at the
meeting was to concentrate development in those areas
containing separate wetlands, including ponds, in order
to avoid development in areas surrounding the central
11
wetland that dominates the project. As a result, the
developer has relocated the buildings and parking lots
to allow for that type of arrangement. This has
resulted in a higher impact on wetland areas than
called for in the original developer's plan. However,
it should be noted that most of these impacts are not
as a result of fill and that much of the impact has
been shifted from connected wetlands to rion-connected
wetlands.. Rather, a considerable part of the impact is
the result of locating buildings on pilings and other
structures over the 404 Wetland areas and some areas of
fill in the separate pockets. All of these relocations
were the result of the attempt on the part of the
developer to comply with the comments made at the last
review session in July.
A sewage treatment plant is proposed to provide service to
the multifamily area as well as to the adjacent commercial
sections to the north. The sewage treatment plant is addressed
tinder this section because the main area for location of the
plant is contained within the multifamily zone. It is important
to note that the sewage disposal will not result in any
deforestation or wetland fill or impacts. This is accomplished
by locating the underground drain lines within the area of the
power line right of way. Since this right of way is already
cleared, it will riot be necessary to clear new areas in order to
provide the sewage disposal system. In addition, the right of
way follows an existing high ridge system.

III. Residential Subdivision Lots.
This area is already developed with roads and central water
system in place. The development consists of residential lots
located immediately adjacent to the Sea Scape Golf Course. No
permits are required for development within this section. The
properties in the section are identified as Kitty Hawk Woods,
Sections 6 and i. The purpose of including these properties
within the permit narrative is to provide an example of a method
of development whereby wetland impacts are minimized. Within the
two sections of residential subdivided lots-, all lots contain at
least 15,000 square feet, exclusive of wetlands. In addition,
all lots have been designed so that no wetland impacts will occur
upon creation of driveways to the residential building sites. In
some cases this has required the creation of lots in excess of
30,000 square feet. Approximately 50 acres are included within
these two residential subdivisions which are characteristic of
12
other areas within the 'ridge and swale systems of the Bitty Hawk
Woods project. Development of these areas occurred during the
past two years preceding the application and is referenced as an
example of the. type of development sponsored by the kitty Hawk
Woods Partnership. The development. of property in Project IV
would be similar to this type of development.
IV. Eckner Street Ridge.
This area is a 'small ridge system located to the south of
Eckner Street, east of the North Carolina Power line transmission
right of way and west of the project described in Project III.
It is separated from kitty Hawk Woods, Sections 6 and i_(Project
III above) by a large swale area containing extensive water
systems. Development of this ridge into single family lots,
designed in the same manner as Project III, would result in
approximately 20 residential lots. This development cannot occur
without a zoning change presently under discussion with the Town
of Kitty Hawk. Present zoning allows for single family
residential but requires a much lower density and would not
permit the development into as many lots. No wetland fill is
required for development of this subdivision with the exception
of certain driveway crossings for isolated areas of high ridge
systems.

V. Maritime Forest.
This portion of the project consists of the central maritime
forest area and composes a majority of the acreage owned by the
Bitty IIawk Woods, Partnership. The property is bounded on its
easte_-rr side by Lne North Carolina Power line right of_ way. The
power line follows a high ridge system that has been cleared and
supports the power line and the power line access road. On the
western side, this area is bounded by the main road running
through kitty Hawk Woods and by residential lots fronting on that
road. On the north, a residential subdivision exists that is not
included within the Kitty Hawk Woods project. The subdivision
was developed based upon plats recorded in the early i570's and
is not associated with this project. On the south, the property
bounds other areas that are generally similar to the maritime
forest composing this project. However, these areas are not
controlled by or connected with this project. The southern
properties are owned by various adjacent property owners.
The maritime forest area consists of two parcels, the
designation of which ha.s been created for the purpose of these
13
permit applications. The first parcel is an area of 135 acres
located at the southern end of the maritime forest area owned by
the developer. This area has been designated as the donation
(I The proposal calls for a donation of 135 acres to The
Nature Conservancy, the Town of Kitty Hawk or to some other
entity or organization capable of maintaining this acreage in its
present state. The proposal calls for conveyance of this
property in fee simple, free and clear of any and all
encumbrances. At the time of the original meeting, participants
inspected the, site and found it to be composed of high ridges
with swale systems. The ridges consist of loblolly pine, beach,
dogwood species and with the occurrence of an uncommon species
known as the southern twayblade. The wetlands are richly
forested with mature cypress tress. The proposal calls for the
creation of conservation easements along with the donation and
In addition, the lender has indicated its consent.to a
conservation easement that would be imposed against this property
once the obligation for purchase was established. This easement
is discussed further in the portion of this application dealing
with mitigation.
In combination, the donation and sale parcels will allow for
the control of most of the maritime forest existing within. the
Town of Kitty Hawk with existing buffers in the form of the North
Carolina Power line easement and the main road running through
the woods in Kitty Hawk. One advantage to the proposal is the
fact that the entire acreage is presently controlled by the Kitty
Hawk .roods Partnership and is not fragmented. In addition, only
one lender carries mortgages on this property and this lender
supports the entire application process.
VI. East Side of Kitty Hawk Woods Main Road.
Following the eastern boundary of the Kitty Hawk Woods main
road is a ridge system on which the main road itself is located.
This ridge is bounded on the east by the area described in
Project V, the maritime forest. Present development is limited
by the zoning ordinance for the Town of Kitty Hawk which requires
very low density development on a single family basis. The
developer proposes to develop lots fronting on the Kitty Hawk
Woods main road with an approximate total of 20 lots. A zoning
change is required in order to result in this many lots. The
nature of the change would still require a low density
development with 80,000 square foot lots. In some of the
original discussions, the area covered by this Project VI had
been included in the proposed donation or sale to the
conservatory agencies. However, calculating the funds that could
be expected to result from a sale of the maritime forest and
comparing those amounts with the required payments to the
existing lenders indicated that the development of these
residential lots would be necessary. As a c::..rollary, the price
of the maritime forest may be significantly reduced by the
development of these lots. No land would be created in these
areas from filling existing wetlands and no wetland crossings
would be required based on the nature of the property.
The lots within this section will be subject to restrictive
covenants. These covenants will be drawn so as to minimize
impact on the habitat and will specifically prohibit filling of
any wetland areas. In addition, the covenants will state that
wetland crossings, if required for driveway purposes, shall be
accomplished only by bridge systems and that no crossings will be
permitted using culvert and fill systems.
No separate map is provided for this section and the only
survey information available is the information shown on the
15
composite map for this 404 permit application. The lots are
designed so that they have a frontage of 200 feet along the Kitty
Hawk Roar: and a depth of 400 feet. With this desig,ri, most lots
in this section would riot require any crossing of any kind to
reach the buildable portion of the lot. Where crossings are
required, as addressed above, a bridge system would be necessary.
VII. Ten Acre Lot Subdivisions (Kitty Hawk Woods,
-- Phase-[
-
and II ) .
These subdivisions have been platted and are composed of'.
a1_)pr.•oxinrately 21 ten acre lots. The property is bounded on the
east by the Kitty Hawk Woods main road and runs into the interior
of the sound side portion of the Kitty Hawk Woods area. A road
system including bridges has been constructed within these
subdivisions. Development was done in a manner to minimize
wetland impacts and crossings were obtained under nationwide
permits following old relic road systems. The homesites have
been developed in a manner that would minimize any wetland
crossings and one particular site within these homesites has been
developed with a bridge system to cross a wet area. These sites
are referred to as an example of the type of development that can.
occur in the ridge and swale system of the maritime forest with
minimum impact on wetlands and on the ridge systems as well. Th:e
only additional requirements that may occur within these
subdivisions would result from a widening of the existing Covered
Bridge Road in order to meet requirements of the Town of Kitty
Hawk. This widening would result in a wetland impact of 0.3
acres. The entire ten acre lot subdivision covers approximately
210 acres.
Covenants have already been imposed on the lots within these
sections requiring development in a manner that protects the
habitat. Additional covenants will be proposed that will
prohibit filling of wetland areas and require construction of a
bridge in those instances where cro?3ings are necessary. No
culvert and fill type crossings have been required under this
permit for the lots within these subdivisions.
VIII. Kitty Hawk Woods, Section 8.
This area is located to the west side of the main road
Uir•ough the Bitty Hawk Wloods and is north of the area in Project
VII. The property is characteristic of the other properties in
that it contains wetland swales between ridges. It is presently
zoned to permit development in the same manner as'those described
in Project III with 15,000 square feet exclusive of wetland for
each residential lot. The property will support development of
approximately 62 lots in the same manner as Project III allowing
for minimal impacts. The wetland -fill within this area are
approximately 0.08 acre for crossings supporting the road system.
None of the lots would require additional fill for development.

MITIGATION PLAN:
The environmental damage resulting from the discharge of
fill material on the forested wetlands will be fully offset by
the following mitigation plan.
I. Donation of a 135 Acre Tract.
The landowner. will convey to The Nature Conservancy a
significant portion of this unique, undisturbed maritime forest.
The conveyance will be in fee simple, interest free and clear of
any liens.
The tract was inspected by all participants at the May lf,
1.989 meeting. The high ridges consisted of loblolly pine, beech
and dogwood species with the occurrence of an uncommon grouted
cover species, southern twayblade. The wetlands were richly
forested with mature cypress trees. It was agreed that this gift
could result in the nucleus on which to add. other public
ownership in this top priority maritime forest. For a more
complete description, please review John Fussell's report on this
135 acre tract attached hereto.
II. Conveyance of Three Parcels Totaling 124 Acres.
Three areas of the ownership cannot be developed due to
wetland problems and open space requirements on commercial
tracts. Conservation easements will be conveyed to The Nature
Conservancy or a fee simple interest can be conveyed if parcels
are released from the bank deeds of trust. See map showing the
master plan for location.
III. Offer to Sell 320 Acres.
A 320 acre tract, located adjacent to the maritime forest to
be donated, and located in the center of top priority area
protected by the state, will be offered to the Natural Heritage
Trust Funds for $3,000 per acre. The offer will be available for
an adequate amount of time to allow the funding of this
acquisition. The price is negotiable with no profit to the
18
landowner. The only lien which needs to be satisfied is with the
ba4 k holding the note and deed of trust. An installment sale is
perhaps feasible resulti-ng in increments added to the donation
parcel over five years. Additional details concerning this
purchase and the installment sale are contained within the
portion of this narrative that describes the maritime forest area
(Project V).
IV. Restoration of 23 acres of Wetlands.
The May 16, 1989 meeting emphasized "no net loss of
wetlands. Therefore, Kitty Hawk Woods will restore farmland to a
forested condition.
The commenting agencies agreed that the forested ridges were
not to be converted to wetlands to compensate for the filling of
wetland swales in Kitty Hawk Woods. The use of a remote site is
recommended for our restoration work. The proposed site is
located in Tyrrell County southeast of Columbia. It is a.26 r r.r•e
farm tract of which 22.8 acres are upland,. iron-404 farmland.
Restoring this drained farmland to a wetlands condition will
necessitate removing all artificial drainage to restore the high
water table.
. The reestablishment of forested species will be conducted
under the guidance of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission and the National
Heritage Program. Cypress and black gum will be planted on the
lowest fields. Water, overcup and swamp chestnut oak will be.
planted on higher elevation fields. Atlantic white cedar also
can be established in fully stocked stands within this 26 acre
tract. It is hoped that this restoration.area can be conveyed to
a public agency when completed for future studies. Please see
location and tract maps in this addendum.
V. Restrictive Covenants. Conservation Easements.
Several areas have been mentioned under Section II of this
mitigation section as areas suitable for conveyance or the
imposition of conservation easements. These areas are residual
areas located between or adjacent to other sections of the
development and due to the extensive wetlands located in these
areas. they are not suitable for any type of development. It is
important to note that these areas add a significant amount of
acreage to the area composing the maritime forest in the Town of
Bitty Hawk. Since they are not physically adjacent to the
central area of the woods, they have riot been included in the
area designated for proposed sale. When considering the total
acreage that is subject to protection, these areas should be
included since they do provide additional habitat.
19
t
+ „ . or,
r
In addition, restrictive covenants have been mentioned in
the portions of this narrative dealing with the residential
subdivision. In each- case, the restrictive covenants are
intended to preserve all wetland areas and minimize any
crossings. Some sections have been designed so that wetland
crossings will not be necessary. In other cases, where that
design was not possible, restrictive covenants will require
construction of a bridge system rather than the use of culverts
and fill to establish crossings to higher areas. In some cases,
the application requests a permit for a fill and crossing system.
However, these situations have been minimized throughout the
hi-oject and a large majority of the lots proposed for development
will be subject to the covenants restrictions that prohibit fill
and crossing systems.
To the extent possible, those areas subjected t:o
conservation easements will also be subject to the same kind of
controls placed on the property in public ownership. This will
be accomplished either by direct conveyance or by use of the
easements.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Due to the extent of the property covered by this permit;
application, it is possible that questions will arise in the
review process that have not been fully addressed in.the maps or
the narrative. Additional information is available to any

Project setting
The applicant's property is located in Tyrrell County off US 64 in the Town of
Columbia on a manmade canal adjacent the Scuppernong River. The site varies in
elevation from 0' to 2' above the NWL. The property is bordered on the south by
wooded wetlands and a 0.85 acre abandoned sawdust pile. To the north, the site
is bordered by an undeveloped lot vegetated with mixed hardwoods, shrubs and
upland grasses, and a town boardwalk ends at this property line.
The northern one-third of the project site is predominantly highground vegetated
with upland shrubs and grasses. The middle section of the property has an
existing berm created when the adjacent manmade canal was excavated in vegetated
wetlands. The berm is vegetated with pines, and some mixed hardwoods (gum,
maple, cypress), and upland shrubs and grasses. The manmade canal averages 15'
in width and is approximately 480' long. The canal contains various species of
aquatic vegetation and is bordered on both sides by vegetated wetlands. The
vegetation in this wetland area is mixed woody shrubs, mixed hardwoods (gum,
maple, cypress), and grasses (including Phragmites). The southern one-third of
the site is predominantly highground vegetated with upland grasses and a few
hardwoods. The canal is manmade and connects into the Scuppernong River which
is classified SC waters by the Environmental Management Commission.
Project description
The applicant proposes to construct a 20' to 24' wide by 1150' long paved road
which will cross an approximately 20' wide manmade canal. The majority of the
road will be constructed on highground or on an existing berm. Approximately
9590 square feet of vegetated wetland will be filled for the construction of the
roadway. A 36" culvert will be used at the canal crossing and will be armored
with rock riprap.
Anticipated impacts
The project would result in the filling of approximately 9590 square feet of
wetland which includes 900 square feet of a manmade canal. With the exception
of small craft that may be portaged, the proposed culvert crossing will close to
navigation approximately 330' of the terminal end of the manmade canal. The
project would result in localized turbidity associated with the dredge and fill
activities in the canal and associated wetlands. The N.C. Department of
Transportation who will build the road is proposing strict erosion and
sedimentation control practices which should reduce offsite sedimentation due to
the project.

WETLAND CONCERNS
In order to construct Water Street we are unable to
route the street in such a manner as to avoid wetlands. The
attached maps will show that we are impacting wetland in two
locations.
The first area contains 6,488 square feet. We have
laid the street out in such a manner as to avoid as much
wetlands as possible, instead of a gentle curve it has been
designed with a 90 degree curve at the point we cross the
ditch and enter wetlands in order to minimize the impact.
The ditch which is very shallow will be crossed by tiles
since the construction of a bridge would be cost
prohibitive. Refer to the former narration concerning the
impact on the minority community.
The second area of wetlands in minuscule. It is an
area where Cypress Street will intersect the new Water
Street and affects approximately 130 sq. ft. The reason for
having to deal with Cypress Street is due to the fact that
this entire tract has been subdivided by the previous owner
and lots on the east have been sold and these property
owners must be given ingress and egress to their properties.
We have looked at rerouting Cypress Street across the lands
of the adjacent property owner; however, that is a
commercial lot and there are currently nineteen heirs who
own the lot with two of those being minors. It is
impossible to get them to give us the right-of-way since it
makes the balance of their lot not profitable for a
commercial establishment. The units of government do not
want to exercise the right of eminent domain for such a
small area and feel it will better serve the project by
having a commercial site in that location.
Town and County officials have been working with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife staff with the Posocin Lakes National
Wildlife Reserve concerning mitigation for the impacted
wetlands. On the site there is a sawdust pile that has been
inactive for over forty years. The sawdust pile is to be
removed by the PLNWR and after removal will be restored as a
wetland similar to the adjacent property south and southwest
of the site. A description of this plan is attached.
Mitigation Plan
Water Street Extension, Town of Columbia oil
This is a mitigation proposal for alteration of 6,618 square feet
of wetland for the construction of roadway in the town of Columbia.
The roadway construction involves the extension of Water and
Cypress Streets (see application map).
Vegetation on the wetlands consists of young red maple, Catalpa,
mulberry, cypress, a few sedges, honeysuckle, and spikerushes. The
largest wetland is a depression with scattered trash. The trash
consists of vehicle tires and rusted steel.
The mitigation site is immediately adjacent to the impact area,
Scuppernong River and the Town of Columbia playground. It consists
of a large pile of sawdus ated in a wetland. The sawdust pile
is 37,000 square feet o 0.8 acres in size. The sawdust is 8-10
feet deep in some areas contains approximately 10,000 cubic
yards of material.
The Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, proposes to reclaim the wetland by hauling the sawdust in
dump trucks to a disposal site. Loading will be done with
endloaders. Caution will be exercised to prevent erosion and
sedimentation from entering the Scuppernong River during
construction. The goal will be to restore the original topography
and hydrology to the site. After removal of the sawdust, the
refuge will plant 50 cypress trees and 50 water-willow oak trees.
The rest of the site will revegetate naturally. The project will
be completed within four years from the date of permit.

Dear Mr. Dorney:
A y < 9G?,
c9i9
Enclosed is the application of the Town of Columbia, for Department of the
Army authorization and a State Water Quality Certification to install a
culvert and place fill material in the waters/wetlands of a manmade canal off
the Scuppernong River, Columbia, Tyrrell County, North Carolina. Your receipt
of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for certification
in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section
404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification may be required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same
law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the
certification has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after receipt
of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action.
Therefore, if you have not acted on the request by October 15, 1991, the
District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Raleigh Bland, telephone
(919) 975-3694.
Sincerely,
G. a WChief, Regulatory Branch

MEMORANDUM
TO: John R. Parker, Chief
Major Permits Processing Section
FROM: Dennis L. Stewart, Manager '
Habitat Conservation Program /
DATE: August 29, 1991
SUBJECT: CAMA Dredge/Fill Permit, Town of Columbia, North Carolina
The Wildlife Resources Commission has completed a review of the subject permit
application. Professional biologists on our staff are familiar with the project and wildlife
habitat values of the area: A site visit was made on August 26, 1991 to further assess
impacts to wildlife and fisheries resources along with evaluation of the proposed mitigation
site. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act(48 Stat. 401 as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.) and the Coastal Area
Management Act(G.S. 113A-100 through 113A-128).
The applicant, the Town of Columbia has applied fora permit to construct a 20' to
24' wide by 1150' long paved road which will cross an approximately 20' wide manmade
canal. The majority of the road will be constructed on lughground or on an existing berm.
Approximately 9590 square feet of vegetated wetland will be filled for the construction of
the roadway. A 36" culvert will be used at the canal crossing and will be armored with rock
riprap.
The project, as proposed, will result in the loss of 9590 square feet of wetland
habitat of which 900 square feet is canal habitat. A mitigation plan is included whereby the
applicant proposes to have the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service remove the sawdust fill at an
adjacent site to elevations conducive to wetlands creation and to revegetate part of the area
with cypress and willow/water oaks.
We offer the following comments in regard to this application:
1. The application indicates that there is a public need for this project and our
subsequent onsite investigation reveals that there are no non-wetland
alternatives.
2. The mitigation plan calls for replacement of wetlands losses at a rate of 3.8
to 1 in habitat that will be of a' igh resource category. We do recommend
that amounts of reforestation be doubled(from 50 to 100 trees of each
species) to allow for mortality.
Memo (2) August 29, 1991
3. It is also recommended that the mitigation plan be a permit condition.
4. As opposed to mitigation plans being "completed within four years from the
date of permit", it is recommended that mitigation be completed within the
life of the permit.
We will not object to the permit if the aforementioned conditions are met.
We appreciate the opportune to review and comment on this CAMA permit
application. pIf we can be of further assistance, feel free to call on us.

Project setting
The applicant's property is located in Tyrrell County off US 64 in the Town of
Columbia on a manmade canal adjacent the Scuppernong River. The site varies in
elevation from 0' to 2' above the NWL. The property is bordered on the south by
wooded wetlands and a 0.85 acre abandoned sawdust pile. To the north, the site
is bordered by an undeveloped lot vegetated with mixed hardwoods, shrubs and
upland grasses, and a town boardwalk ends at this property line.
The northern one-third of the project site is predominantly highground vegetated
with upland shrubs and grasses. The middle section of the property has an
existing berm created when the.adjacent manmade canal was excavated in vegetated
wetlands. The berm is vegetated with pines, and some mixed hardwoods (glop,
maple, cypress), and upland shrubs and grasses. The manmade canal averages 15'
in width and is approximately 4-80' long. The canal contains various species of
aquatic vegetation and is bordered on both sides by vegetated wetlands. The
vegetation in this wetland area is mixed woody shrubs, mixed hardwoods (glop,
maple, cypress), and grasses (including Phragmites). The southern one-third of
the site is predominantly highground vegetated with upland grasses and a few
hardwoods. The canal is manmade and connects into the Scuppernong River which
is classified SC waters by the Environmental Management Commission.
Project description
The applicant proposes to construct, a 20' to 24' wide by 1150' long paved road
which will cross an approximately 20' wide manmade canal. The majority of the
road will be constructed on highground or on an existing berm. Approximately
9590 square feet of vegetated wetland will be filled for the construction of the
roadway. A 36" culvert will be used at the canal crossing and will be armored
with rock riprap.
Anticipated impacts
The project would result in the filling of approximately 9590 square feet of
wetland which includes 900 square feet of a manmade canal. With the exception
of small craft that may be portaged, the proposed culvert crossing will close to
navigation approximately 330' of the terminal end of the manmade canal. The
project would result in localized turbidity associated with the dredge and fill
activities in the canal and associated wetlands. The N.C. Department of
Transportation who will build the road is proposing strict erosion and
sedimentation control practices w1,ich should reduce offsite sedimentation due to
the project.

ATTACHMENT A
TOWN OF COL.TJMB=A
WET LAND CONCERNS
In order to construct Water Street we are unable to
route the street in such a manner as to avoid wetlands. The
attached maps will show that we are impacting wetland in two
locations.
The first area contains 6)488 square feet. We have
laid the street out in such a manner as to avoid as much
wetlands as possible3 instead of a gentle curve it has been
designed with a 90 degree curve at the point we cross the
ditch and enter wetlands in order to minimize the impact.
The ditch which is very shallow will be crossed by tiles
since the construction of a bridge would be cost
prohibitive. Refer to the former narration concerning the
impact on the minority community.
The second area of wetlands in minuscule. It is an
area where Cypress Street will intersect the new Water
Street and affects approximately 130 sq. ft. The reason for
having to deal with Cypress Street is due to the fact that
this entire tract has been subdivided by the previous owner
and lots on the east have been sold and these property
owners must be given ingress and egress to their properties.
We have looked at rerouting Cypress Street across the lands
of the adjacent property owner; howeveri that is a
commercial lot and there are currently nineteen heirs who
own the lot with two ?f those being minors. It is
impossible to get them to give us the right-of-way since it
makes the balance of their lot not profitable for a
commercial establishment. The units of government do not
want to exercise the right of eminent domain for such a
small area and feel it will better serve the project by
having a commercial site in that location.
Town and County officials have been working with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife staff with the P?s?cin Lakes National
Wildlife Reserve concerning mitigation for the impacted
wetlands. On the site there is a sawdust pile that has been
inactive for over forty years. The sawdust pile is to be
removed by the PLNWR and after removal will be restored as a
wetland similar to the adjacent property south and southwest
of the site. A description of this plan is attached.
Mitigation Plan
Water Street Extension Town of Columbia
This is. a mitigation proposal for alteration of 6,618 square feet
of wetland for the construction of roadway in the town of Columbia.
The roadway construction involves the extension of Water and
Cypress Streets (see application map).
Vegetation on the wetlands consists of young red maple, Catalpa,
mulberry, cypress, a few sedges, honeysuckle, and spikerushes. The
largest wetland is a depression with scattered trash. The trash
consists of vehicle tires and rusted steel.
The mitigation site is immediately adjacent to the impact area,
Scuppernong River and the Town of Columbia playground. It consists
of a large pile of sawdust located in a wetland. The sawdust pile
is 37,000 square feet or 0.85 acres in size. The sawdust is 8-10
feet deep in some areas and contains approximately 10,000 cubic
yards of material.
The Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, proposes to reclaim the wetland by hauling the sawdust in
dump trucks to a disposal site. Loading will be done with
endloaders. Caution will. be exercised to prevent erosion and
sedimentation from entering the Scuppernong River during
construction. The `goal will be to restore the original topography
and hydrology totS.L4e site. After removal o.f the sawdust, the
refuge will plant W-cypres,s trees and water-willow oak trees.
The rest of the site will revegetate naturally. The project will
be completed within four years from the date of permit.

ATTACHMENT A
TOWN OF COLL7'M313=A
WETLAND C O NC ERNS
In order, to construct Water Street we are unable to
route the street in such a manner as to avoid wetlands. The
attached maps will show that we are impacting wetland in two
locations.
The first area contains 61488 square feet. We have
laid the street out in such a manner as to avoid as much
wetlands as possible, instead of a gentle curve it has been
designed with a 90 degree curve at the point we cross the
ditch and enter wetlands in order to minimize the impact.
The ditch which is very shallow will be crossed by tiles
since the construction of a bridge would be cost
prohibitive. Refer to the former narration concerning the
impact on the minority community.
The second area of wetlands in minuscule. It is an
area where Cypress Street will intersect the new Water
Street and affects approximately 130 sq. ft. The reason for
having to deal with Cypress Street is due to the fact that
this entire tract has been subdivided by the previous owner
and lots an the east have been sold and these property
owners must be given ingress and egress to their properties.
We have looked at rerouting Cypress Street across the lands
of the adjacent property owner; howeveri that is a
commercial lot and there are currently nineteen heirs who
own the lot with two of those being minors. It is
impossible to get them to give us the right-of-way since it
makes the balance of their lot not profitable for a
commercial establishment. The units of government do not
want to exercise the right of eminent domain for such a
small area and feel it will better serve the project by
having a commercial site in that location.
Town and County officials have been working with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife staff with the Posocin Lakes National
Wildlife Reserve concerning mitigation for the impacted
wetlands. On the site there is a sawdust pile that has been _
inactive for over forty years. The sawdust pile is to be
removed by the PLNWR and after removal will be restored as a
wetland similar to the adjacent property south and southwest
of the site. A description of this plan is attached.
Mitigation Plan
Water Street Extension, Town of Columbia
This is a mitigation proposal for alteration of 6,618 square feet
of wetland for the construction of roadway in the town of Columbia.
The roadway construction involves the extension of Water and
Cypress Streets (see application map).
Vegetation on the wetlands consists of young red maple, Catalpa,
mulberry, cypress, a few sedges, honeysuckle, and spikerushes. The
largest wetland is a depression with scattered trash. The trash
consists of vehicle tires and rusted steel.
The mitigation site is immediately adjacent to the impact area,
Scuppernong River and the Town of Columbia playground. It consists
of a large pile of sawdust located in a wetland. The sawdust pile
is 37,000 square feet or 0.85 acres in size. The sawdust is 8-10
feet deep in some areas and contains approximately 10,000 cubic
yards of material.
The Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, proposes to reclaim the wetland by hauling the sawdust in
dump trucks to a disposal site. Loading will be done with
endloaders. Caution will be exercised to prevent erosion and
sedimentation from entering the Scuppernong River during
construction. The goal will be to restore the original topography
and hydrology to the site. After removal of the sawdust, the
refuge will plant 50 cypress trees and 50 water-willow oak trees.
The rest.of the site will revegetate naturally. The project will
be completed within four years from the date of permit.
