APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. Vernon L. Creekmore
Route 1, Box 85
Moyock, NC 27958
Dear Mr. Creekmore.
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 300 square
feet of waters for the purpose of stabilizing a shoreline at your lot on SR 1238, as you described in your
application dated September 15, 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3112. In addition, you should get any other federal,
state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and
Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non - Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this
approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the
General Certification.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you
change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If total
wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required
as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed
in the attached certification.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing.
You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written
petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of
Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611 -7447. This certification and its conditions are
final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Donley at 919 - 733 -1786.
Sincerely,

Bio Report

Site Description
The applicant owns 15' /a acres of farmland adjacent to the North Landing River on
Creekmore Road (SR 1238) in Currituck County. The property is generally flat with sandy
loam soils with a clay base and vegetated with soybeans. Man -made features include a farm
ditch system and a derelict bulkhead, that at an earlier time, ran the entire length of the
property and protected the shoreline. Approximately 50 ft. Of the bulkhead is remaining.
Adjacent property consist of an undeveloped wooded area with some wetlands and farmland
which has riprap along the shoreline.
Approximately 460 ft. Of the shoreline is a sandy, unvegetated beach. The beach area
averages 10 ft. In width and landward of the beach is an erosion escarpment which separates
the field from the beach area. The remaining shoreline varies from a beach area vegetated
with common reed (Phragmites communis) to a flooded area also vegetated with common reed.
This area is located landward of a section of the derelict bulkhead and has a comparable
erosion escarpment.
The applicant has experienced extensive erosion to his property and his brother -in -law,
Mr. Joseph M. Pritchard received CAMA Major Permit 79 -93 to riprap the adjacent farmland.
The applicant received CAMA GPA17729 to riprap 500 ft. of shoreline on April 7, 1997 and
is attempting, through this application, to complete placing riprap along his shoreline. The
Division of Environmental Management classifies the waters of North Landing River as SC.
Project Description
In order to protect his property and prevent further erosion, the applicant proposes to
place stone riprap along the existing erosion escarpment of his shoreline. The riprap will be
520 ft. In length and will have a 5 ft. base.
Anticipated Impacts
The placing of the riprap along the erosion escarpment will result in 2300 sq. ft. of
Estuarine Shoreline being filled and 300 sq. ft. of Public Trust, Estuarine Waters shallow
water habitat being filled. Temporary water turbidity will occur during construction.
