Dear Mr. Edwards:
This letter is in reference to the Notice of Violation that I sent you on 12 June 2006 for
unauthorized development in violation of the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA). The
violation occurred onsite the NCAAT (North Carolina Association for the Advancement of
Teaching) property located off NC HWY 12 on the Pamlico Sound adjacent the entrance to
Silver Lake on Ocracoke Island in Hyde County, North Carolina. The violation resulted from
the unauthorized land clearing and grading in preparation to construct two parking lots. These
activities are part of a larger project to redevelop the site that includes a large marsh/Coastal
Wetland creation for shoreline stabilization. This unauthorized land disturbing activity took
place in the Estuarine Shoreline Area of Environmental Concern (AEC). Estuarine Shoreline is
defined in part, as the area extending landward from the normal water level along Estuarine
Waters for a distance of 75'. Estuarine Shoreline is a designated Area of Environmental Concern
and no permit was issued for this work in this area. Therefore I conclude that you are in violation
of the Coastal Area Management Act.
The Coastal Area Management Act provides that a civil assessment of up to $2,500 may
be assessed against any violation. It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to assess
a civil penalty for all violations. This is done to recover some of the cost of investigating
violations and/or to compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources.
Under Coastal Resources Commission rules, a proposed civil penalty in the amount of
$500 is appropriate for this violation. You may expeditiously resolve this matter prior to the
assessment of a formal civil penalty by accepting responsibility for the violation, waiving your
right to an administrative hearing, and paying the amount proposed above. In order to do this,
you must: (1) sign one of the attached copies of a "Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing
and Agreement to Pay Civil Assessment", (2) attach a check or money order for $500 made

Charles Jones, Dexter Matthews and I have discussed which agency should
take the lead on this issue and have concluded that based on what we
know to date, DWQ would be the appropriate agency. We agreed to keep the
lines of communication open in case new informationwould indicate the
need for a change (for example, perhaps DWM would need stronger
involvement if we find something more akin to a dump with more elevated
levels of pesticides, but it is unlikely that DCM would need to take the
lead). Please advise if you have a preference on how to keep you abreast
of our joint progress in this matter. Staff are investigating the site
today so I anticipate a plan of action will start to develop by early
next week.

Dear Mr. Coidan:
This letter confirms that on 7 June 2006, I met Mr. John Breshears with D. S. Simmons Inc.,
and Mike Johnson, onsite the NCAAT (North Carolina Association for the Advancement of
Teaching) property located offNC HWY 12, on the Pamlico Sound, adjacent the entrance to Silver
Lake, on Ocracoke Island, in Hyde County, North Carolina. The purpose of my visit was to monitor
work authorized via Minor CAMA Permit No. 20-2005 issued 5 August 2006 to fill and grade an
earthen berm on the aforementioned property.
Information gathered by me for the Division of Coastal Management indicates that you have
undertaken major development in violation of the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
No person may undertake major development in a designated Area of Environmental
Concern (AEC) without first obtaining a permit from the N.C. Department of Environment and
Natural. Resources. This requirement is imposed by N. C. General Statute (herein abbreviated N. C.
G. S.) I I3A-118. Information I have indicates that you have undertaken, or are legally responsible
for, unauthorized land clearing and grading in preparation of constructing two parking lots. This
unauthorized work was undertaken in violation of Minor CAMA Permit No. 20-2005, Condition No.
1, that states: "All work must be performed in accordance with the plat submitted with your
application package. Any modification of the project will require approval from the Local Permit
Officer." These activities are part of a larger project to redevelop the,site that includes a large
marsh/Coastal Wetland creation for shoreline stabilization. This unauthorized land disturbing
activity took place in the Estuarine Shoreline Area of Environmental Concern (AEC). Estuarine
Shoreline is defined in part, as the area extending landward from the normal water level along

I request that you immediately CEASE AND DESIST er una onzed activities
within designated Areas of Environmental Concern. A civil as 5��t �45 be
assessed against any violator. Each day that the development described in this notice is continued
or repeated may constitute a separate violation which is subject to an additional assessment of up
to $2,500. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought to enforce any violation.
N.C.G.S. 113A-126
It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to levy a minimum civil assessment of
$350 not to exceed $2,500 against all violations. This is done to recoup some of the costs of
investigating violations and/or to compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources.
Whether a higher amount will be assessed depends on several factors, including the nature and area
of the resources that were affected and the extent of the damage to them.
Based upon N. C. Administrative Code, 7H. State Guidelines for Areas of Environmental
Concern, the clearing and grading work is consistent with Sections .0209, Estuarine Shoreline.
Therefore there will be no restoration requested by this Division for the work that has already been
undertaken other than implementation of appropriate erosion and sedimentation control devices. The
temporary erosion control measures should remain in place in good working condition until a
sufficient ground cover is established. This unauthorized land disturbance of a once stable natural
shoreline has resulted in the need for further long-term shoreline stabilization. Until such time that
the necessary Major CAMA permit is obtained, all development/construction activities within
designated AECs under the jurisdiction of this Division should cease and desist. I encourage you to
contact Mr. Pat McClain with the Division of Land Resources in the Washington Regional Office,
(252) 948-3859, reference intermediate and permanent soil stabilization measures. I also encourage
you to contact Mr. Kyle Barnes, at (252) 948-3917, reference the Tar/Pamlico River Basin Buffer
Rule requirements.
Thank you for your time and cooperation in resolving this matter. If you have any questions
about this or related matters, please call me at (252) 948-3851. Pending an enforcement report to be
submitted, you will be notified as to the amount of a civil assessment for undertaking development
without the proper permits.
