4) No sewage, whether treated or untreated, shall be discharged at any time
from boats using the docking facility. Any sewage discharge at the
docking facility shall be considered a violation of this permit for which
the permittee is responsible. This prohibition shall be applied and
enforced throughout the entire existence of the permitted structure.
5) Because this area is a designated primary nursery area, outstanding
resource water, and is open to the harvest of shellfish, there will be no
dredging or excavation permitted in the vicinity of the pier and dock at
any time.
6) This permit does not authorize the interference with any existing or
proposed Federal project, and the permittee will not be entitled to
compensation for damage or injury to the authorized structure or work
which may be caused from existing or future operations undertaken by the
United States in the public interest.
7) No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free use
by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized
work. Use of the permitted activity must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States.
8) The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a
significant increase in turbidity outside the area of construction.
Increases such that the turbidity in the waterbody is 25 NTUs or less are
not considered significant.
9) Permanent reflectors will be attached to the structure to make it visible
during hours of darkness or inclement weather.
10) If the display of lights and signals on the authorized structure -is not
otherwise provided for by law, such lights and signals as may be
prescribed by the U. S. Coast Guard will be installed and maintained by
and at the expense of the permittee.
11) It is possible that the authorized structure may be damaged by wavewash
from passing vessels. The issuance of this permit does not relieve the
permittee from taking all proper steps to ensure the integrity of the
permitted structure and the safety of moored boats. The permittee will
not hold the United States liable for any such damage.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
John's Creek Subdivision lies adjacent to Myrtle Grove Sound on
John's Creek Road off of SR 1492, just north of the junction with
Hwy 421. This is a New Hanover County Subdivision consisting of
26 single family lots with a community pier and docking system.
The docking system was constructed approximately 5 years ago.
The New Hanover County Land Use Plan classifies the area as
conservation, limiting the uses to water dependent, and 2.5 units
per acre. The Division of Environmental Management classifies
the waters of this area as SA-ORW. The Division of Marine
Fisheries has designated this area as Primary Nursery, and it is
open to shellfishing. The shoreline in this area is developed
mostly with single family residential piers.
The existing docking system consists of a pier crossing mixed
coastal marsh for approximately 400' before crossing a small
island. After crossing the island for approximately 3001, the
pier again crosses coastal marsh for another 5001, and into open
water for approximately 3001.
The pier attaches to a docking system, 6' x 1151. This system
has 5 finger -piers, 4.5' x 221, and 8 mooring pilings providing
10 docking spaces. There are also 5 mooring pilings landward of
the floating dock that are unused, and to be removed. The depth
at the project end is -4' mlw.
The applicant is proposing to extend the floating dock for
another 22011 adding 8 more finger piers, and 9 mooring pilings.
This will provide another 16 docking spaces, bringing the total
to 26 docking spaces. With a total of 10,740 s.f. of Public
Trust incorporation, the applicant needs 398 linear feet of
riparian property to satisfy the 27 square foot rule. In order
to do this, the homeowners have agreed not to give permission for
anyone to cross the community owned island with piers. This
would be the only access to water that a homeowner would have.
With this restriction, 559 linear feet of riparian property is
available in determining the square footage allowed. This is
161' more than is needed.
The structure currently extends approximately 330' into a body of
water approximately 1,150' across. Hence, it meets with the 1/3
rule. The addition to the project would extend the dock in a
northerly direction, and would not change this. Also, the
project currently, and as proposed, terminates greater than 150'
from the AIWW.
The addition to 26 slips for vessels with no heads, and 21' or
less in length would not require a shellfish closure.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION - Continued
The riparian corridor to the north will be crossed by the project
extension. The property owner to the north has submitted written
permission for the file allowing for the extension into his
corridor.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The new impacts to be incurred by these proposed project
extension would be as follows:
Sixteen slips would be added; however, these additional slips
would not cause a shellfish closure. The use of the structure
would remain available only for the adjacent community. There
would be an additional 6,900 sf of public trust waters
incorporated.
