Dear Mr. Tyndall
This letter is a request for a minor modification to CAMA permit #
146-01, issued to Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company on November 20, 2001.
Weyerhaeuser Real Estate does request that additional language be added to
the permit to address the construction of vista platforms and boardwalks on
individual properties. Item #20 in the permit already prohibits the construction
of piers and docking facilities for individual property owners within the Gum
Thicket Development. It was agreed that this provision does not prohibit the
construction of vista platforms at waters edge. We would request that
additional language be added to the permit to limit these platforms and
boardwalks to the following:
The boardwalks and vista platforms would be limited to the following
specifications: 1) All boardwalks built over coastal wetlands must not
exceed 6 ft. in width and must be elevated a minimum of three feet over the
wetland substrate as measured from the bottom of the decking. 2) The
waterside vista platform shall not exceed 192 sq. ft. and shall extend no more
than 6 ft. beyond the nominal waterline. The platform shall have a maximum
length of 12' as measured from the landward side to water and a maximum
width of 16' as measured from side to side along the shoreline. 3) The area of
the vista platform that may be built over coastal wetlands must not exceed six
feet in width and must be elevated a minimum of three feet over the wetland
substrate. 4) There shall be no boat slip authorized in association with these
platforms. Therefore, tie cleats or tie poles will not be permitted on the
platform. 5) There will be no roof allowed over the platform. 6) No more than
one vista platform per lot.
These restrictions will be reflected in the Community's Protective Covenants.
Weyerhaeuser Real Estate also request pemiission to construct two vista
platforms and boardwalks for marketing and demonstration purposes. One of
the vista platforms with a boardwalk will be located on Broad Creek adjacent
- to the proposed marina channel and the second will be located on Mill Creek.
r ,.nchl-ofmt:com

The platform on Mill Creek will have a 24' temporary extension for the
purpose of loading prospective property owners on a boat for touring the
waterfront. This access will be necessary until the -'marina basin is complete at
which time the extension will be removed. Plans have been submitted to the
Morehead City Office of CAMA. We feel it is very important to demonstrate
the type of boardwalk and vista platform that will be allowed by our
protective covenants, this will give them a visual to exactly the limitations that
will be imposed on the property. It is also quite necessary that we have
limited access to a boat for purposes of showing the property until such
access is available in the marina.
Thanks for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions please feel
free to call me at 252-634-3373 or 252-670-7760.

MEMORANDUM: �^
TO: DOUG HUGGETT
FROM: TRACEY WHEELEE,
SUBJECT: MINOR MODIFICATION — CAMA MAJOR PERMIT #146-01
DATE: August 26, 2002
Please find enclosed a request from Mr. Ed Mitchell, Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company, to
modify the existing permit to allow for the construction of two vista docks onsite the Gum
Thicket Development property in Pamlico County and to modify Condition #20 on the existing
permit to allow construction of similar structures on individual 'properties. The applicant is also
requesting a temporary 6' by 24' finger pier at the vista dock proposed on Mill Creek. The finger
pier would be removed upon completion of the permitted marina. The applicant has submitted
the $100 modification fee.
This permit was originally issued on November 20, 2001, for the construction of a residential
development and marina at the Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company's property off NCSR 1317
on the peninsula between Tar Creek and Orchard Creek along the Neuse River near the
community of Pamlico in Pamlico County, North Carolina. As described in Weyerhaeuser's
permit application, the proposed upland marina basin will provide the only docking facilities for
the entire Gum Thicket Residential Development. This provision was reiterated in Condition
Number 20 of the CAMA Major Permit. The applicant is now proposing to construct structures
to allow water access without providing docking facilities for boats.
Based on a thorough review of the request and the determination that this proposal is consistent
with 15A NCAC Subchapter 0711.0208 and 07J.0405(c)(1), I recommend the Minor
Modification be authorized with the following conditions:
1) All of the original conditions of the issued permit remain in effect.
2) The two vista structures must meet the following criteria:
a. All structures over coastal wetlands must not exceed 6 feet in width and must be
elevated a minimum of 36 inches above the wetland substrate.
b. The platform must not exceed 192 square feet and shall not extend more than 6
feet waterward of the normal water level. 'Maximum allowable platform
dimensions are 12' by 16'.

c. There will be no boat slips authorized. Therefore, tie cleats, tie pilings, boatlifts
and boathouses are not authorized in association with the pier structures.
d. Based on commitments made by the permittee, roofed structures over water will
not be allowed in the Gum Thicket Development.
3) Any authorization for structures proposed by individual property owners in the Gum
Thicket Residential Development must meet the above criteria (See Condition #20).
4) In order to facilitate boat access during the marketing of the Gum Thicket Development,
this permit authorizes a 6' by 24' finger pier to be constructed as shown on the drawing
labeled Mill Creek, received by this office on 9 August 2002.
5) The abovementioned finger pier will be removed upon completion of the permitted
manna.

Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company for the construction of Gum Thicket Marina near the
confluence of Broad Creek and the Neuse River of NCSR 1317 in Pamlico County.
As described in Weyerhaeuser's permit application, the proposed upland marina basin will
provide the only docking facilities for the entire Gum Thicket Residential Development. This
provision was reiterated in Condition Number 20 of the CAMA Major Permit:
Piers and docking facilities for individual property owners within the Gum Thicket Marina and
Residential Development are limited to areas within the marina basin only. This permit
condition is to be enforced by protective covenants, deed restrictions, or other legally
enforceable instruments. Any pier or docking facility located outside the marina basin and not
in accordance with the permit application 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 this project. The permittee has agreed to this condition to minimize
disturbance within the many creeks that border this development that are designated Primary
Nursery Waters by the Division of Marine Fisheries.
Permit Condition Number 21 requires the permittee to place deed restrictions on all waterfront
lots referencing the no docking facilities requirement referenced in the aforementioned condition.
It was noted during the project review and permit issuance that a large number of the individual
waterfront lots contained expanses of wetlands and/or coastal marsh between the upland,
buildable area of a lot and the normal water line. Neither of the conditions discussed above is
intended to prohibit waterfront property owners' access to the water. In these situations,
property owners would be allowed (with the appropriate permits) to construct an elevated
walkway over the wetlands to the edge of the water. These structures would be required to meet
the criteria established in 15A NCAC 7H.1200, but would be designed in a manner so as not to
provide docking space. The following are examples of docking features that would be prohibited
in the residential portion of the Gum Thicket Development: cleats, tie poles/pilings, boatlifts,
boat slips, etc.... The existing permit would need to be modified to limit the dimensions of the
structures allowable in the Gum Thicket Development. The following conditions are proposed:

1) All of the original conditions of the issued permit remain in effect.
2) The two vista structures must meet the following criteria:
a. All structures over coastal wetlands must not exceed 6 feet in width and must be
elevated a minimum of 36 inches above the wetland substrate.
b. The platform must not exceed 200 square feet and shall not extend more than 6
feet waterward of the normal water level. Maximum allowable platform
dimensions are 12' by 16'.
c. There will be no boat slips authorized. Therefore, tie cleats, tie pilings, boatlifts
and boathouses are not authorized in association with the pier structures.
d. Based on commitments made by the permittee, roofed structures over water will
not be allowed in the Gum Thicket Development.
3) Any authorization for structures on property owned by individual property owners in the
Gum Thicket Residential Development must meet the above criteria See Condition #20).
4) In order to facilitate boat access during the marketing of the Gum Thicket Development,
this permit authorizes a 6' by 24' finger pier to be constructed as shown on the drawing
labeled Mill Creek, received by this office on 9 August 2002.
5) The abovementioned finger pier will be removed upon completion of the permitted
marina.
I appreciate your efforts to comply with the permit requirements of this Division, and encourage
you to contact me if you have any questions about this or any other matter. Please don't hesitate
to contact me at the Morehead City office at 252-808-2808.
