UNCW-CMS c/o John Morrison Page 2 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: RECEIVED SEP 3 0 2013 c DC1T-V_qD CITY The project site is located at 5600 Marvin K. Moss Lane in New Hanover County. The property is adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW)/Masonboro Sound and is the location of the Center For Marine Science (CMS) facility owned and operated by the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. To locate the property traveling south on College Road, take a left onto Mohican Trail and travel east approximately 1.3 miles. Turn right onto Masonboro Loop Road and travel south for approximately 0.6 miles until you reach Marvin K. Moss Lane that will be located on the left at the entrance to the CMS. Continue to travel east on Marvin K. Moss Lane for approximately 0.5 miles until it terminates at the property of interest. The high ground property is approximately 48.42 acres and the elevation of the property ranges from approximately 0' to 27' above normal high water (NHW). Existing highground development on the property includes marine science research buildings, guard building, parking areas, saltwater treatment equipment for aquaculture facility, roads, sanitary pump -station and associated stormwater ponds. Highground vegetation consists of maintained ornamental landscaping, lawn grasses, hardwoods and other woody species including: Oak, Pine, Cedar and Dogwood. Vegetation bordering the highground of the property consists primarily of high marsh and low marsh species, which supports §404 and coastal wetlands vegetation including: Wax Myrtle (Myrica cerifera L.), Marsh -elder (Iva frutescens), Grounsel-bush (Baccharis halimifolia), Sea Oxeye (Borrichia frutescensj, Salt Meadow Grass (Spartina patens) and Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina a/temiflora). The high marsh then transitions into an area of low marsh, approximately 420' in width towards the AIWW, which consists primarily of Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina altemiflora). This vegetation also stabilizes the approximately 700' of shoreline. Located at the eastern end of the property, just waterward of the existing road and cul-de-sac is an existing research docking facility which currently extends into Masonboro Sound. The applicant received CAMA Major Permit No.103-92 on 10/02/1992 for the construction of the current docking facility. Further, based on the rules at the time of this permit, the structures were not to exceed 1/3 distance across the waterbody rule; however, the applicant received an Ordinance through the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners on 03/08/1993, which amended the local zoning in this location of Masonboro Sound to establish a pier head line for research purposes. This allowed the applicant to exceed the 1/3 distance across the waterbody rule to locate the existing facility within water depths of approximately -4.0' at mean low water (MLW). The current configuration consists of a fixed pier, measuring approximately 756' in length by 10' in width, of which approximately 320' extends over open water. The pier terminates onto an uncovered fixed platform, measuring approximately 24' in length by 55' in width, which is in a "T-head" configuration. There are two (2) existing floating dock systems located just landward of the platform, one on each side of the access pier, each measuring approximately 36' in length by 10' in width, which run parallel to the access pier. The floating docks turn 90' a distance of approximately 23' in length by 8' in width, each running parallel with the shoreline and channel, creating an "L-shaped" configuration. The existing docking facility could potentially provide docking space for up to four (4) vessels, one of which is for the 66' R/V Cape Fear, which moors on the waterward end of the fixed "T-head" platform. The application states that the water depth in the location of these structures is approximately -2.0' to -3.0' at normal low water (NLW). There are also numerous floating research shellfish bags located on the northern side of the existing "L-shaped" floating docks, which extends approximately 115' towards the north. The applicant received State Permit No. 81-13 on July 2, 2013 for a new floating dock, measuring approximately 20' in length by 8' in width which extends from the existing floating dock system located on the north end of the access pier, aforementioned. The floating dock is located just landward of the fixed platform running perpendicular to the platform. The application states that the floating dock is utilized as an upweller system utilized for nursery culture of bivalve mollusk research and not for docking purposes. State Permit No. 81-13 is due to expire on December 31, 2016 (See Sheets 1 through 4 of 4 Project Narrative). 10. UNCW-CMS c/o John Morrison Page 3 RECEIVED SEP 3 0 2013 The City of Wilmington and New Hanover County 2006 Land Use Plan classifies the adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high ground portion of the project area as ResBOWWRtion. In the project area, the waters of Masonboro Sound are classified as SA-ORW by the NC Division of Water Quality, and they are OPEN to the harvest of shellfish. These waters ARE designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA), by the Division of Marine Fisheries. PROPOSED PROJECT: The applicant proposes to expand an existing research docking facility adjacent to the AIWW, in Masonboro Sound. Modifications to the active permit include a new main floating dock, measuring approximately 76' in length by 8' in width which would extend from the existing "L-shaped" floating dock located on the northern side of the existing research docking facility, running parallel to the AIWW channel. Three (3) floating finger piers, each measuring approximately 16' in length by 4' in width would extend from this main floating dock approximately 22' apart, which would run perpendicular to the AIWW channel. Three (3) boatlifts, each measuring approximately 12' in length by 12' in width would be installed, each on the northern side of the proposed finger piers. A new floating dock extension, measuring approximately 17' in length by 8' in width would extend from the existing "L-shaped" floating dock located on the southern side of the existing docking facility, which would run parallel to the AIWW channel. Two (2) boatlifts, one (1) measuring approximately 12' in length by 12' in width would be installed on the landward side of the "L-shaped" floating dock and one (1) measuring approximately 15' in length by 15' in width would be installed on the waterward side of the "L- shaped" floating dock. The application states that the expansion would accommodate an additional six (6) research vessels for a total of ten (10) slips at this location. The application also states that the landward side of the proposed main floating dock on the northern end of the facility would be utilized for access to the existing shellfish research area and vessel dockage would be prohibited. The application states that the water depth in the location of the proposed structures range from approximately -2.0' to -3.0' at NLW (See Sheets 1 through 4 of 4 and Project Narrative). ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The proposed new docking structures would incorporate 1,553 sq. ft. of Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas. The structure would not encroach into the adjacent 15' riparian corridor setback requirements nor the 80' setback from the AIWW federal channel. Further, the proposed structures would not extend beyond the established pier head line for the existing research facility. Minor turbidity increases may be expected during the construction process.

Moss Lane in Wilmington, NC. Upon consulting with NCDENR representatives it has been determined that normal low water level at the proposed project site is 3'(NLW) and a the proposed facility will result in 10 overall berths for research vessels. Upon completion the facility will allow dockage of research vessels including 4 dry berths to accommodate 16'-20' John boats/flat bottom center consoles, 4 wet berths to accommodate 16'-20' boats/Flat bottom center consoles,1 dry berth to accommodate the 35' R/V Seahawk and 1 wet berth to accommodate the 66' R/V Cape Fear. Existing Facilities The project involves expansion of the existing dock facilities. Existing facilities include a fixed research pier with additional floating dock structures. Current structures allow for the wet dockage of 5 research vessels. Potable water and electrical services are provided to support marine operations. To the west, at the end of the fixed research pier, one wet slip provides dockage for the 66' R/V Cape Fear. To the north, floating dock accommodates one wet slip for a 16'-20' research vessel. The west side of the north floating dock structure has been designated as a shellfish research test farm area in which boat dockage/access is prohibited at all times (see drawing C4). To the south, floating dock accommodates three wet slips for 16-20' research vessels. RECEIVED DCM WILMINGTON, NC SEP 2 4 9-013 RECEIVED SEP 3 0 2013 Proposed Facilities The proposed project will add additional floating dock structures, fingers and" boatlifts to provide a total of ten overall slips, five wet slips and five dry slips. Electrical and potable water systems will be extended from the existing structures to the proposed floating dock to support marine operations and research. To the west, at the end of the fixed research pier, one existing, unaltered wet slip will provide dockage for the 66' R/V Cape Fear. To the north, floating dock structures will be extended and finger piers will be constructed to provide three dry berths and three wet berths. The west side of the north floating dock structure has been designated as a shellfish research test farm area in which boat dockage/access is prohibited at all times therefore additional pilings to restrict access and no docking cleats will be installed. To the south two boatlifts will be installed in existing slip locations to provide dry berths for research vessels. One existing wet slip will remain unaltered. Floating dock structure will be added to the south providing access to load/unload the 3S' R/V Seahawk. The construction of the proposed floating dock system will consist of treated timbers, ranging from 2x6 to 2x12, fastened together with various stainless steel and galvanized hardware to prevent structural failures resulting from salt -water corrosion. The floating dock system will be secured in place with the installation of 10-12" treated pilings and galvanized hardware. All timber will be specified to be compatible for salt -water contact to extend the life cycle of the structure and reduce maintenance costs. The floating dock and finger pier sections will be constructed on land and then trailered to a local boat ramp and floated into place and secured to 10-12" pilings. Once the structure is secured, electrical distribution will be provided to support the addition of four high-speed boatlifts that will be installed with stainless steel, galvanized and aluminum components to prevent salt -water corrosion. Potable water plumbing to the structure will then be installed.

The proposed structures would be located entirely over open water and would not extend beyond the established pier head line, aforementioned. Further, it also appeWei ROWIProposed structure would not exceed beyond the terminal end of the existing fixed pier and fixed platform distance, which are CONSISTENT with the rules set forth in NCAC 07H .0208 at the time of the original permit including the established pier head line. As proposed this office has no objection to the proposed project. If the project is determined to be consistent with NCAC 07H .0208(b)(6), and all other state, federal and local regulations, it is recommended that any permit issued should include the following conditions: This permit authorizes only the docks, piers, and other structures and uses located in or over the water that are expressly and specifically set forth in the permit application. No other structures, whether floating or stationary, may become a permanent part of the structure without permit modification. No non -water dependent uses of structures may be conducted on, in, or over public trust waters without permit modification. 2. 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. 3. The authorized structure and associated activity must not cause an unacceptable interference with navigation and shall not exceed the established pierhead line. 4. The permittee must install and maintain, at his expense, any signal lights and signals prescribed bythe U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized facilities. 5. In order to protect water quality, runoff from the construction must not visibly increase the amount of suspended sediments in adjacent waters. 6. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he abandons the project without having the permit transferred to a third -party. 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. 8. The authorized project is located within a primary nursery area (PNA). Therefore, in accordance with 07H.0208 of the Rules of the Coastal Resources Commission, no new dredging or excavation within the PNA shall be permitted. Dredging in any manner, including "kicking" with boat propellers, is not authorized. 9. This permit authorizes a maximum of ten (10) boat slips. At no time shall more than ten (10) vessels be moored or docked at the facility. The restriction of the number of vessels shall apply to all marine vessel types, including but not limited to motorboats, sailing vessels and personal watercraft. NOTE: The permittee is cautioned that this permit does not authorize the placement of tie piles in association with the docking facility. Furthermore, due to the proximity of the AIWW, boats utilizing the docking facility will be subject to frequent wave wash from passing vessels. The issuance of this permit does not relieve the permittee from taking all proper steps to ensure the integrity of the structure and the safety of moored boats. The permittee shall not hold the State of North Carolina or the United States liable for any damage to the structure or moored boats.

The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by the application and your field investigation report. We recommend that the following conditions be included in the State authorization: 1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the 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. Approval of the structure is based on determinations that there would be no obstruction to navigation. The structure may be damaged by wave wash from passing vessels. Issuance of this permit should not be construed, as relieving the permittee of taking proper steps to insure the structure and moored boats will not be damaged by wave wash. 4. 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. 5. 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 authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities connected with this project. 6. Unless otherwise authorized by this permit, all fill material placed in waters or wetlands shall be generated from an upland source and will be clean and free of any pollutants except in trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials (including debris from land clearing activities), or unsightly debris will not be used. 7. All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste, the permittee shall immediately report it to the N.C. Division of Water Quality at (919) 733-5083, Ext. 526 or (800) 662-7956 and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and Hazardous Substances Control Act will be followed. 8. The authorized structure and associated activity must not interfere with the public's right to free navigation on. all navigable waters of the United States. 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 for reason other than safety. 9. The permittee must install and maintain, at his expense, any signal lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized facilities. For further information, the permittee should contact the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office at (910) 772-2191. 10. If the permittee discovers any previously unknown historic or archeological remains while accomplishing the authorized work, he will immediately notify the Wilmington District Engineer who will initiate the required coordination procedures. 11. The permittee shall advise the Corps in writing at least two weeks prior to beginning the work authorized by this permit and again upon completion of the work authorized by this 2 permit. 12. Approval of the structure was based on determinations that there would be no obstruction to navigation. Under conditions existing in the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), a possibility exists that the structure may be damaged by wave wash from passing vessels. Unreasonable slowing down of vessel traffic cannot be required because it would tend to nullify the navigational benefits on which the AIWW was justified. Issuance of this permit should not be construed, as relieving the permittee of taking proper. steps to insure the structure and moored boats will not be damaged by wave wash normally to be expected in the AIWW. 13. The permittee shall require its contractors and/or agents to comply with the terns and conditions of this permit in the construction and maintenance of this project, and shall provide each of its contractors and/or agents associated with the construction or maintenance of this project with a copy of this permit. A copy of this permit, including all conditions, shall be available at the project site during construction and maintenance of this project. 14. The permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary to prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the permit area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or similar appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of earthen fill, and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project must remain in full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4). 15. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a significant increase in turbidity outside the area of construction or construction -related discharge. Increases such that the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU's or less in all rivers not designated as trout waters by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM), 25 NTU's or less in all saltwater classes and in all lakes and reservoirs, and 10 NTU's or less in trout waters, are not. considered significant. 16. The permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of this permit or upon its expiration before completion of the work will, without expense to the United States and in such time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative may direct, restore the water or wetland to its pre -project condition. 17. Violations of these conditions or violations of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act must be reported in writing to the Wilmington District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers within 24 hours of the permittee's discovery of the violation. 18. No portion of any structure will be located within 80 feet of the near bottom edge federally maintained navigation channel or federal setback to the channel. An as built survey of the authorized structure will be provided to our office for review of navigation concerns. 3 Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Dave Timpy, Wilmington Field Office, Regulatory Division, telephone (910) 251-4634.

The applicant is proposing to install an additional floating dock to an existing research docking facility adjacent to the AIW W, in Masonboro Sound, New Hanover County. Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's) impacted by the proposal are ORW, EW and PT. Waters at the project site are classified as SA-ORW and are open to the harvesting of shellfish. The area is a Primary Nursery Area. I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the 2006 Wilmington -New Hanover County Joint Land Use Plan and offer the following comments. The general area of the project is classified as Resource Protection. In general, Wilmington -New Hanover County allows development in Resource Protection classified AECs, which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The 2006 Wilmington -New Hanover County Joint Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum use standards.

The projected deadline for making a decision is December 9, 2013. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day. If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from September 24, 2013, you may request a meeting with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of your project. Such a meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request and shall include the property owner, developer, and project designer/consultant.

Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-way fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
