Subject: Request for a NW 13 permit for shoulder / shoreline stabilization on US 264, Stumpy Point, in
Dare County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation is requesting a NW 13 permit for shoreline
stabilization on US 264 in Dare County. The project is located 0.86 miles south of SR 1 100 (Bayview
Drive), adjacent to Stumpy Point Bay, Class "SA, HQW" Waters. The stabilization will occur on an eroded
bank that has collapsed along US 264 causing the shoulder of the road to become unstable. The PCN,
vicinity map, and permit drawings are included with this letter. If you need any additional information or
have any questions concerning this project please call me at 252-482-7977.
Sincerely,
Jerry Jennings
