FROM:

DATE:
7 June 2021
SUBJECT:
Mr. Ellis Kain Ross
816 McCotters Marina Road, Washington
Beaufort County
Mr. Cain Ellis Ross has submitted a CAMA Major Permit application for the installation of a bulkhead and
approximately f3,552 ft2 of non -vegetative wetlands river bottom fill. Also included in his application is the
proposed installation of a pier with platform, boathouse, boatlift and additional jet ski lift located at his property off
SR# 1134 at 816 McCotters Marina Rd. in Washington, Beaufort County, North Carolina.
This office has reviewed the proposed project with regard to rules found in Subchapter 7H concerning
development in an Estuarine Water and Public Trust Area. It is staff s recommendation that the proposed project is
consistent with 07H.0208 (6)(B) which states in part "The total square footage of shaded impact for docks and
mooring facilities (excluding the pier) allowed shall be eight square feet per linear foot of shoreline with a
maximum of 2,000 square feet." Mr. Ross' proposal includes a 400ft2 platform and a 544ft2 boathouse making his
total shading impact 944ft2 of his allowed 1184ft2.
The project is also consistent with rules found in 15A NCAC 07H.0208 (7)(13)(i) which state in part, "the
property to be bulkheaded has an identifiable erosion problem, whether it results from natural causes or adjacent
bulkheads", (ii) "the bulkhead alignment extends no further below normal water level than necessary ....to align
with adjacent bulkheads", (iii) "the bulkhead alignment will not adversely impact public trust rights or the property
of adjacent riparian owners", (iv) "the need for a bulkhead below normal water level is documented by the Division
of Coastal Management".
It is also staffs recommendation that the proposed project is consistent with 15A NCAC 07H .0209 (e)
which states "The buffer requirements in paragraph (d) of this rule shall not apply to Coastal Shorelines where the
EMC has adopted rules that contain buffer standards".
If the proposed project is approved by the N.0 Division of Water Resources and the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers rules and regulations this office recommends issuance of the Permit with standard bulkhead permit
conditions.

CAMA Major Permit for Ellis K Ross
Good Morning Mr. Ross,
I received a copy of your CAMA Major application for the proposed bulkhead & construction at 816 McCotters Marina
Rd in Washington. I work in the Land Resources section at the Washington Regional Office. I am reviewing your project
to determine if a stormwater permit may be required. If your plans include the construction of some type of built -upon
areas (impervious areas); then a stormwater permit will be required. If no impervious areas are proposed; then we may
be able to exempt your project from obtaining a separate stormwater permit at this time. Please feel free to contact me
by email, or give me a call, if you have any questions about the stormwater requirements.

Re: Site visits update
Hey Gregg,
Thanks for getting these passed along to me, and thanks Ashley for getting out there to check out the site.
Seeing how everything looks certainly helps me out, and I think that this alleviates the concerns that were
mentioned in the comments previously submitted. It doesn't appear that this project will result in any impacts to
SAV; therefore, the previous recommendations to minimize SAV impacts are no longer necessary. In regard to
the bulkhead, as the neighboring property already has a bulkhead, concerns with this structure are minimal.
Since this is a relatively small project, there should be no need to include a moratorium on in -water work.
Thanks Gregg!

Hey Jimmy,
See above for pics and a description of the on site conditions. Based on discussion with Ashley the white string noted in
a few pics is generally the alignment of the bulkhead as proposed. In pic titled "Ross 3" it is slightly waterward and you
can see where the adjacent bulkhead ends, which is where Ross intends to connect. Ashely did not see any SAV up to
approximately 75ft offshore and did not encounter while in the water. The sediment is has a lot of slick clay. In the pics
-1�4
you can see there is minimal tree debris and most is above the NWL. Maria did not have any concerns with the project
as proposed as well.
Hope this helps and let me know if this alleviates your concerns detailed in your previous comments. DCM does not
have any issues as proposed beyond standard conditions for bulkheads and docking facilities.
Thanks,
Gregg

Morning Gregg,
Unfortunately I'm going to have to cancel my site visits for today. My son has been fighting a bug since Sunday
evening, and had to stay home from daycare today (24-hour fever -free without medicine requirement). So I'm
having to stay home with him today. It seems like the fever finally broke, since today was the first day he's had
a temperature below 99-100 in the morning. As long as things go well today, he'll be back in daycare tomorrow
and I'll be able to get out there to check those sites. I'll be sure to update you this afternoon about getting out
there tomorrow. Thanks Gregg!

MEMORANDUM:
TO: Gregg Bodnar, NCDCM Assistant Major Permits Coordinator
FROM: James Harrison, NCDMF Fisheries Resource Specialist
SUBJECT: Ross Residence, Beaufort County
DATE: 3 May 2021
A North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Fisheries Resource Specialist has
reviewed the CAMA Permit application for proposed actions that may impact fish and fish
habitats. The proposed work is located at 816 McCotters Marina Road, Washington, within
Beaufort County, North Carolina. The applicant is proposing to construct a 148 linear feet
vinyl bulkhead that tie into the bulkheads of the neighboring properties, and backfill
behind the bulkhead. The bulkhead would be positioned an average of 24' from the normal
water line (NWL), with a maximum of 38' from NWL in the most heavily eroded area.
Additionally, the applicant is proposing to construct a 6' by 180' pier with a 20' by 20'
platform, 13'by 13' boatlift, jet ski lift, and a 34' by 16' covered boathouse.
The proposed project occurs within an area that has been designated as Secondary Nursery
Area (SNA). SNAs are waters in which the later stages of juvenile development take place.
These areas are often transition zones, and species found within these areas often include a
diverse mix of juveniles, sub -adults, and adults. The shallow waters of SNAs provide fish
species with the necessary ecosystem services for post -larval development, and their
protection is critical to ensure growth to maturity for numerous commercially, ecologically,
and economically important species. Therefore, DMF would recommend that, if the project
is permitted, the permit include a moratorium of 1 April through 30 September for all in -
water work.
Additionally, although not noted in the application package, this location has a history of
supporting submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV). SAV is an important habitat, providing a
variety of habitat services for species, including nursery, forage, and refuge. Many of the
species benefitting from these services are those that are also protected by the nursery
area designation noted above. Furthermore, SAV provides numerous benefits to the
surrounding area, including shoreline stabilization, natural wave energy reduction,
nutrient uptake, and water quality improvements.

DMF has significant concerns with the encroachment into SNA habitat that would occur as
a result of the proposed bulkhead. In order to prevent further erosion on the site, DMF
would recommend that, rather than a bulkhead connecting to the neighboring properties,
the applicant utilize riprap along the existing shoreline. In addition to providing
prevention of further erosion, this would provide three-dimensional habitat structure that
could be utilized by the fish species that use this area for nursery habitat. If this is not
feasible, DMF would recommend that the fill of shallow water habitat be minimized and
reduced by shifting the alignment of the proposed bulkhead to be closer to the existing
shoreline, and angling the bulkhead to parallel the shoreline.
DMF is also concerned with the impact that the proposed structure would have on SAV
within the area. Positioning the boathouse over SAV would significantly reduce light
availability, one of the most important factors associated with SAV growth. The record of
SAV appears to end approximately 145' from the propose bulkhead alignment. Therefore,
shifting the position of the boathouse slightly further out would minimize the increased
shading this structure would cause. Increases in shading of this area could also be
minimized by including building materials that allow better light penetration than
traditional building materials, such as grated decking.
Lastly, DMF is concerned with the proposed boat and jet ski lifts, and the impact these
structures can have. Due to the water depths at this location being less than 4', DMF would
recommend that sling -style lifts be used. These minimize the impacts associated with the
lift usage by using elements that are less detrimental to the seafloor habitats. If it is not
possible to incorporate this type of lift, DMF would recommend that stops be included in
the structure design in order to prevent the lift reaching the seafloor during use.
Thank you for consideration of our comments. Please contact Jimmy Harrison at (252)

attached plans, which are a part of this permit. Any modification to these plans must be approved
by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) prior to implementation.
2. The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or
if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to remove,
relocate, or alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the
United States. No claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal,
relocation, or alteration. The permittee shall notify NOAA/NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE
Chief Source Data Unit N CS261, 1315 E West HWY- RM 7316, Silver Spring, MD 20910-
3282 at least two weeks prior to beginning work and upon completion of work.
3. Except as specified in the plans attached to this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized
land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in the construction or maintenance of this
project, in such a manner as to impair normal flows and circulation patterns within waters or
wetlands or to reduce the reach of waters or wetlands.
4. Except as authorized by this permit or any USACE approved modification to this
permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in
the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not

a pier with platform, boatlift, jetski lift and boathouse.
Mr. Ellis Ross
816 McCotters Marina Rd.
Beaufort County
Proledsetting
Mr. Ellis Ross has submitted a CAMA Major Permit application for the installation of a new
bulkhead, pier with platform, boatlift, covered boathouse and jetski lift located on his property offSR#1134
at 816 McCotters Marina Rd. Washington in Beaufort County, North Carolina. There are currently no man-
made features on the project site however the site is suited for a single-family residence. There are two lots
on site totaling .48 acres or 20,908ft2 in size and has a total shoreline length of ±148 linear feet on the
Pamlico River and ranges from 1.0'- 3.0' in elevation above the Normal Water Level (NWL). The lot is a
heavily eroding low sediment bank with a sandy beach front rising towards a maintained wooded lot mostly
vegetated with a few scattered upland grasses and established pines. The downstream edge of the property
abuts rip rap and old bulkhead used for shoreline stabilization the upstream edge of the property abuts a
return wall connected to an existing bulkhead also used for shoreline stabilization. This property has the
only non -stabilized shoreline west of the point at the mouth of Broad Creek facing the Pamlico River.
Both the downstream and upstream properties have bulkheads along with piers, platforms and
boatlifts. The upstream and downstream property each have upland development consisting of a single
family residence.
The Pamlico River is classified as SB NSW by the Environmental Management Commission at the
project site. The Pamlico River is classified as coastal fishing waters at this site and the site is not located in
a primary nursery area. The property is subject to the Tar -Pamlico Riparian Buffer rules enforced by the N.C.
Division of Water Resources.
Proiect description
The applicant proposes to construct a vinyl bulkhead 148 linear feet extending waterward 5' to attach
to the existing vertical return wall on the upstream neighbor's property and extending 5' waterward to match
the old bulkhead and rip rap toe on the downstream neighbor's stabilized shoreline. Upon review of this
project it was found that the applicant had taken measurements of the area to be filled from the normal high
water mark. After a field visit by DCM staff more accurate measurements were taken from NWL to more
accurately describe the scope of the project fill area. Using DCM staff measurements, the new bulkhead
would extend a minimum of 5' waterward at each end and to a maximum of 38' from NWL in the most
heavily eroded area with an average distance of 24' from NWL. This proposed project would result in the
applicant filling f3552ft' of river bottom. The applicant also proposes to construct a 6' by 180' pier with a
20' by 20' platform, 13' by 13' boatlift, jetski lift, and a 34' by 16' covered boathouse. The pi
e{�tp
boathouse and boatlift will be located in estuarine waters and the Public Trust Area.
Anticipated impacts APR 12 2021
CITY
The project will result in the filling and grading of *3552 ft2 of river bottom in the licATDsr-
Shoreline AEC along with the shading of±2144 ft' of river bottom within a Public Trust Area. The project
will result in short-term localized turbidity from the construction of the bulkhead, pier, platform, and
boathouse.

Narrative
Ellis Ross and Laura Beth Ross are seeking a CAMA major permit for water front property we purchased
in May of 2020. We are proposing development of a bulkhead that extends water ward of the normal water level of
a maximum of 38 ft. There are several needs for the amount of water ward distance from the existing shore line.
The adjacent properties have had bulkheads for the last 20 years which has caused one of the reasons for excessive
erosion. When we purchased the property there was full grown trees at the water's edge. After the storms we have
had this year the trees were uprooted and we started losing more shore line. After the tree loss the erosion had
increased a great bit. Another need for the bulkhead is so that we can connect to each property owner on each side.
When we purchased the property there was a septic tank permit that came with the property. It is up to date and
current with all state regulations. With the excessive erosion the septic permit could now be in jeopardy according
to the buffer zones. With the proposed plan that 1 am submitting to you this will not be an issue.
1, Ellis Kain Ross here by certify that all information contained is accurate and complete to the best of my
knowledge and belief. I Ellis Kain Ross hereby request that the certifying authority review and take action on the
CWA 401 certification request within the approach in a reasonable amount of time.

Purpose
The building of this boat house size is to protect a boat from the elements. The boat house has to be this
large to accommodate a 26ft long by 8'6" wide boat which he currently owns. The boathouse will be on the river
side extending out a total amount of two hundred feet from shore. The boat house will need to be larger than the 400
sq ft to keep the boat from the weather. The homeowner would like to install a swinger jet ski lift on the pier.
Bulkhead will be a vinyl seawall on the river. All projects are to be used for private/family use only. The
homeowner will be using on the occasional use and more when family and friends are down.
