Re: Permit #35-21 revisions
During a meeting with T. Prescott Marine, Inc regarding the design of the underwater portion of the proposed
boat ramp, it was determined that the original design which used longitudinal placement of hog slats would be
unstable and require ongoing maintenance and disturbance of the site.
It is therefore proposed to (1) use a coffer dam to properly access the ramp site; (2) re -orient and add hog
slats to a transverse layout and (3) add permanent above- and below -water jetties to maintain the stability of
the project.
We have met with the current DCM Field Representatives and discussed best practices and options as set
forth in the attached overhead and side view drawings dated 7/16/2021. We are open to any suggestions or
proposals that will help move this project to completion.
The project proponent hereby certifies that all information contained herein is true, accurate, and complete to
the best of my knowledge and belief.
The project proponent hereby requests that the certifying authority review and take action on this revision
request within the applicable reasonable period of time.
Best regards,
Charles E. Sprague & Dianne Conrad

03 August, 2021
Modification of CAMA Permit No. 35-21 issued to Charles Sprague
Pamlico County
Beard Creek
On 31 March, 2021 Charles Sprague was issued CAMA Major Permit #35-21 to construct a
new 1117t. X 7017t. boat ramp on his property at 401 Beards Creek Rd. in Arapahoe, NC. Also
included in this permit was the construction of a 1217t. x 29.517t. cover boat lift and an
uncovered 1617t.X2017t. boat lift.
On 29 July, 2021 the Washington District office received a request to modify CAMA Major
Permit No. 35-21 to allow for 2 sides of the sheet pile coffer damn to remain in place,
creating a jetty on either side of the ramp. The first sections from NWL out 25 Ft.
waterward, will be no more than 1 ft. above NWL. The remaining 2517t. will be cut flush
with top of the ramp pad.
This office recommends that CAMA Major Permit No. 35-21 be modified to allow for the
jetty on either side of the new ramp. The first 25 FT. to be no more than 1 ft. above NWL
and the remaining waterward portion be cut level with ramp. As a note the $100.00 for the
renewal and modification has been deposited into the Division's account.

Gregg,
For the Sprague minor mod (to DCM#35-21), I've put a note in our files concerning that the 2 sides of the coffer dam will
remain as jetties and that there'll be re -alignment of the hog slats, so that with additional impacts in area to need to
account for, there's no need for a new written concurrence/modification of the existing 401, so the project may proceed
under the existing 401 certifcation (DWR project #2020-1309 v1), with amended drawings re -attached here.

NCW RC has reviewed the request to modify the project by leaving the coffer dam install to act like a jetty. While this is
not typical guidance provided by NCWRC for boat ramps, we do not object to the allowance of "jetties" for this project.
Information and understanding of site specific conditions gathered during the site visit has led to this conclusion.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide comment on this modification. If there is anything additional, please let me
