Kerr Stevens, Director August 4, 2000 106111 OITA COAN , 1 iJ�l TO: Melba McGee Department of Environment and Natural Resources FROM: Milt Rhodes Division of ate Quality-` SUBJECT: Environmental Assessment for Gum Thicket Residential Subdivision and Upland Basin Marina, DENR #1065, DWQ #12702 The Division of Water Quality (Division) has reviewed the Environmental Assessment for Gum Thicket Residential Subdivision and Upland Basin Marina, Pamlico County, and offers the following comments on the document. 1. The Division of Water Quality has concerns With the proposed inland basin, including concerns over the model that was run as part of this study and the design of the marina basin. • In conversations held with staff from the Intensive Survey Unit of the Division's Environmental Sciences Branch, questions were raised over the ambient data used in the predicted dissolved oxygen concentration model run for the Gum Thicket marina basin. As indicated in Appendix G of the subject EA, the ambient data used in the model was obtained from Station #180 at the mouth of Broad Creek at Piney Point in the Neuse River (see attached map). It is the staff s opinion that ambient data from Station #180 is unacceptable as the basis for the design of the Gum Thicket marina basin due to its location. We recommended that the model be run again with ambient data from the Bay River Station and using ambient data collected by the applicant at locations in closer proximity to Paris Creek and Broad Creek. We feel that this will provide a more realistic estimation of predicted dissolved oxygen concentrations for the proposed marina basin. Please provide the results of these calculations when they become available. • In addition, questions were also raised over the design of the Gum Thicket marina basin. As indicated in the EA, the proposed upland basin has been designed with only one outlet that extends to Broad Creek. This design severely limits the possibility for flushing within the basin and therefore raises concerns over water quality in the marina basin.. In order to facilitate necessary flushing within the basin, the Division of Water Quality requests that the applicants explore the possibility of redesigning the marina basin to include two outlets. Please provide this information, as it is available, including any new plans and predicted dissolved oxygen concentration calculations. 2. The proposed Gum Thicket subdivision and upland marina must comply with the NC Coastal Stormwater Regulations (15A NCAC 2H .1000). In addition, as a condition of the'401 Water Quality Certification, a written stonnwater plan for stormwater runoff from this project must be approved by the 401/Wetlands Unit before any impacts occur. This stormwater management plan must include plans and specifications for stormwater management facilities designed to remove 85% TSS according to the most recent version of the NCDENR Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual. Also, before any permanent building is occupied at the subject site, the stormwater facilities shall be constructed and operational, and the stormwater plan shall be implemented. 3. As required in the 401 Water Quality Certification review process, maps of the site must be provided that depict the location of all wetland, stream and riparian buffer resources. A complete site plan 1617 Mail Services Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Telephone 919-733-5083 FAX 919-715-5637 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer50% recycled/ 10% post -consumer paper must also be submitted that clearly shows all proposed impacts to these resources (road crossings, upland basin location, proposed fill, building footprints, lot configurations, etc.). The maps provided in the EA do not provide the level of detail required for a 401 Water Quality Certification review. 4. As indicated in Section VI(C) of the EA, dredging activities for the marina channel will disturb approximately 79,000 square feet (1.8 acres) of public bottom. The EA contains no additional information on how these dredging activities will be carried out. Please provide this information, including amount of material to be removed, equipment to be used, timeframe for dredging, spoil placement, and planned water quality protection measures to control turbidity. In addition, please indicate if submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) is located in or near this proposed dredging activity. 5. In Section VI(B) of the EA, it is stated that restrictive covenants will prohibit wetland loss, and the location and extent of jurisdictional areas will be depicted on individual plats. In. addition, the 401 Water Quality Certification issued for this project will include the following condition. "Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all lots with remaining jurisdictional wetlands and waters or areas within 50 feet of all streams and ponds to notify the State in order to assure compliance for future wetland and/or water impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place within 30 days of the issuance of the 404 Permit for the project." Furthermore, the 401 Water Quality Certification will be conditioned such that no future docks, piers and/or bulkheads are allowed to be constructed on individual lots. As explained in the EA, the purpose for the community marina basin is to consolidate these water dependent activities into one location. 6. The proposed project is located in the Neuse River Basin and is subject to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). All proposed activities must comply with the Neuse Buffer Rules. Specifically, a 50-foot vegetative buffer will be maintained on all applicable surface waters to preserve their nutrient removal functions. For more information on the Neuse River Buffer Rules contact Deborah Sawyer with the NC Division of Water Quality's Washington Regional Office at 252-946-6481. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. TMR: / Gum Thicket, 1065 . ,1: ® North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission Charles R. Fullwood, Executive Director Iur1113to] ,7:1kiI Pi11u1 TO: Melba McGee Office of Legislative & Intergovernmental Affairs FROM: William Wescott, Coastal Coordinator Habitat Conservation Program DATE: August 3.2000 SUBJECT: Comments regarding the Environmental assessment for Gum Thicket Residential Subdivision and Upland Basin Marina, Broad Creek, Pamlico County. Project # 1065. Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the Environmental Assessment. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et. seq.), the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended) and the North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 et seq., as amended; 1 NCAC-25). The applicant proposes to develop up to 600 residential units, a 400-slip marina and other community amenities. The project site is located in Pamlico County at the confluence of Broad Creek and the Neuse River and consists of 1,324 acres of which 394 acres are wetlands. The site is predominantly loblolly pine stands characteristic of timber production use. Waters at the site are classified as SA -NSW by the Environmental Management Commission, designated as primary and secondary nursery areas by Division of Marine Fisheries and open to shellfish harvest/consumption. The applicant's dedication to environmental awareness and proposals to minimize impacts to primary and secondary nursery areas and open shellfishing areas are stated throughout this document. Unfortunately the applicant, Weyerhaeuser, appears to have stopped short of full commitment to protect five sensitive primary nursery areas and open shellfish waters. As Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries • 1721 Mail Service Center • Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 733-3633 ext. 281 • Fax: (919) 715-7643 Gum Thicket 2 August 3, 2000 presented in this environmental document, the applicant proposes to meet the boat mooring needs of prospective lot owners, but individual lot owners would still be allowed to construct private docks and piers. Unless restrictive covenants are incorporated to prohibit the construction of private docks and piers then State and Federal agencies must consider the cumulative impact of hundreds of private docks and boats located throughout the five PNAs in addition to the 400-slip marina. We also recommend the applicant present a construction plan and schedule for excavating the access channel and basin in a way that minimizes turbidity impacts to PNAs and open shellfish waters. The tract of land being considered for development is prime black bear habitat; therefore, future lot owners will undoubtedly encounter bears. The number of people desiring to live in new residential developments in rural North Carolina is increasing rapidly and so are the number of reports NC Wildlife Resources Commission receives regarding bears walking through yards, tearing up trash cans and bear/people encounters. The applicant should help develop and distribute information to educate people about bear behavior and how to react when encountering bears in a residential setting. We appreciate the opportunity to review and continent on this project. If you need further assistance or additional information, please contact William Wescott at (252) 946-6481. Untitled Page 1 of 3 BLA CK BEAR PROBLEMS IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS Black bears once roamed the entire state of North Carolina. Due to increasing human populations and associated development, bears no longer occupy the piedmont and are found only in the eastern and western parts of the state. Further, many new homes are built in occupied bear range each year. Despite all this, bear numbers have increased over the last 10-15 years. As a result, bears and people are coming into contact with each other more frequently than before. Many citizens of North Carolina wish to see bears continue to thrive in the state. Therefore, the challenge is to learn how problems with bears can be avoided in residential areas that are in or near bear habitat. Are bears dangerous? Most injuries associated with bear -human encounters are the result of people feeding bears or when bears are feeding on human sources of food. Simply observing a bear walking through a yard is not cause for alarm. Make sure all garbage is stored or handled as described below and do not provoke or feed the bear. Alert others in the area and request that everyone follow the same procedures. What attracts bears into a residential area? Often, houses are located in proximity to areas occupied by bears. Bears will naturally investigate food odors and are attracted to many different foods such as garbage, bird seed and suet, pet foods, compost piles and grease on barbecue grills. Once a bear receives a "reward" such as one of these foods, it may return to the same area several times (even after food is removed) or search around the general area for similar foods. Some bears become fairly tolerant of humans in these situations and appear tame. Remember, bears are wild animals, and are unpredictable. Therefore, the solution to most bear problems is to remove the source of attraction before conflicts occur. Most problems are temporary Most bear problems in residential areas are temporary and usually occur in the spring and summer months. Between the time bears emerge from their dens and summer foods such as berries ripen, natural food supplies are low and not very nutritious. This causes bears to travel more in search of food. Also, breeding season occurs from June to August and male bears tend to roam more in search of mates. Finally, during this same time period, young males are dispersing to new territories and often wander into residential areas. Usually dispersing bears remain in an area less than 2 weeks. By http://www.wildlife.state.ne.us/Management/blckbear.httn 8/l/00 Optitled Page 2 of 3 keeping food away from bears during those times of increased travel, many problems may be avoided. Why not just move problem bears? There are several reasons why moving problem bears is not an option. First and foremost, moving a bear does not address the problem. If the problem is not fixed, other bears will move in to take advantage of the food source or, the bear that was moved may return to become a problem once more. Second, catching a wild animal such as a bear puts both bears and people at risk of injury, especially in residential areas. Finally, there are no longer areas that are sufficiently remote to ensure that a relocated bear would not encounter other residences and possibly become a nuisance there. How are bear problems best handles? There are many things that can be done to minimize or eliminate the chances that bears will get into garbage or become a problem in an area Any of the methods described below work best if implemented as soon as the problem starts, or better still, before problems occur. Once a bear establishes a feeding pattern, it will take longer to encourage the bear to move on. By following some of the tips listed below, residents can usually prevent the bear from being rewarded the first time. Do not allow bears access to garbage or other food. Store garbage inside buildings or other areas that bears cannot get to. Do not feed bears under any circumstances. If the area is served by a garbage collection service, place garbage out only during the day of collection. Under no circumstances should garbage be left out overnight. Keep all garbage sites clean. Do not leave pet foods out overnight. If bird feeders have been visited by a bear, stop feeding birds for 1-2 weeks. Persons living in bear range should install "bear -proof,' containers or use dumpsters with heavy gauge metal lids as a longterm solution to bear problems. Repellents. There are no repellents that are registered for use on bears. Some have found that sprinkling ammonia or other strong disinfectants on garbage can mask the odor of food. Exclusion. The following have helped to prevent bear damage. Make sure dumpsters are bolted and locked and chain down heavy metal garbage cans and secure the lids. Wood or plastic dumpster lids do not keep bears out Replace these with metal lids that can be locked and make sure sliding side doors can be latched so only humans can open them. Fencing in dumpsters or garbage collection areas can be very effective. A chain link fence with a barbwire overhang can work well. An electric fence powered with a high voltage, low impedance charger can exclude bears; however, this should only be done if safety precautions can be implemented to protect children and adults. There are several electric fence designs which can be provided by the local district biologist if this is deemed appropriate. Frightening or scaring the bear. Shouting, clapping, blasting a car horn or motion -sensitive lights may scare off a bear temporarily. Do not taunt a bear if it fails to respond to your efforts to frighten it. These methods are only temporary solutions. Crowd Control. Sometimes when a bear sighted, crowds may gather. This seemingly harmless situation can be aggravated or became potentially harmful as the crowd grows. People can cause bears to display unpredictable behavior. Law enforcement personnel should disperse crowds and allow the bear to exit without interference. Summary Black bears are an important part of North Carolina's fauna As people move into bear country in increasing numbers, it is ultimately human attitudes toward bears that will determine whether bears will continue to exist in the state. Unfortunately, bears are viewed either as dangerous animals or http://www.wildlife.state.ne.us/Management/blekbear.htm 8/l/00 Ciititled Page 3 of 3 cuddly pets. It is best to avoid these extreme views and instead show a healthy respect for this magnificent forest animal. We have provided some simple, common sense steps you can take to do your part in ensuring that bears and people can live together. As a temporary or permanent resident in bear country, take these steps to avoid attracting bears and to prevent conflicts from occurring. Remember, prevention is the best medicine! http://www.wildlife.state.ne.us/Management/blekbear.htm 8/1/00 More bear sightings because people By Ray Walters Staff Writer Homeowners in Cyprus Landing are seeing more bears for the same reason Goldilocks did: moving into the bears' home. Approximately 6,000 black bears live east of Interstate 95 and between the state's borders with Virginia and South Carolina. The black bear population is almost the highest it has been in modern history, thanks to regulations by the state Wildlife Resources Commission, said Mark Jones, black bear project leader for the commission. But that's not why people see more bears near their houses; it's because more houses are being built in bear country, according to the state Division still grown of Wildlife Management. Manageme "The state's population grew by one million in the "You see 1990s," said Jones. "A lot of them went into bear Jones. "Fid country and most of them don't realize it.

The applicant should be advised that plans and specifications for all water system improvements must be approved by the Division of Environmental Health prior to the award of a contract or the initiation of construction (as required by 15A NCAC 18C.0.0300 et. seq.). For information, contact the Public Water Supply Section, (919)733- 2460. This project will be classified as a non -community public wafer supply and must comply with state and federal drinking water monitoring requirements. For more information, the applicant should contact the Public Water Supply Section, (919)733-2321. If this project is constructed as proposed, we will recommend closure of adjacent waters to the harvest of shellfish. For information regarding the shellfish sanitation program, the applicant should contact the Shellfish Sanitation Section, (252)726-6827. Cumulative impacts from this type of project could cause deterioration in water quality. The proposed project would increase impervious surfaces and alter natural drainage patterns. There would be a loss, of natural vegetation causing an increase in stormwater runoff which could jeopardize the open status of adjacent waters. For more information, the applicant should contact the Shellfish Sanitation Section at (252)726-6827. The subject project is located in an area open to shellfish harvesting. The 10-slip dock, as proposed, would not cause closure in accordance with 15A NCAC 1 BA MARINAS: DOCKING FACILITIES: OTHER MOORING AREAS: however, dockage at the facility could exceed 10 boats. If this was to occur, closure would be recommended in accordance with DEH rules. For information regarding shellfish sanitation, the applicant should contact the She!lfish Sanitation Section at (252)726-6827. Proliferation of these type facilities could cause deterioration in water quality and consequently additional closures of shellfishing waters. For more information, the applicant should contact the Shellfish Sanitation Section at (2521726-6827. The spoil disposal area(s) proposed for this project may produce a mosquito breeding problem. For information concerning appropriate mosquito breeding measure, the applicant should contact the Public Health Pest Management Section at (252)726-8970. The applicant should also contact with Mosquitc Control in County at is a mosquito breeding area. Construction plans and operations should include awareness of this. The applicant should contact the Public Health Pest Management at (252)726-8970 for a site visit or information to neap prevent the creation of more mosquito habitat. The applicant should contact with Mosquito Control in County at The applicant should be advised that this area is a mosquito infested habitat. Mosquito control will be a problem. The applicant should be advised that prior to the removal or demolition of dilapidated structures, an extensive rodent control program may be necessary in order to prevent the migration of rodents to adjacent areas. For information concerning rodent control, contact the local health department or the Public Health Pest Management Section, (919)733-6407. The applicant should be advised to contact the local health department regarding their requirements for septic tank installations (as required under 15A NCAC 18A .1900 et.seq.).

DATE: August 1, 2000 The subject project is located in an area which is open to shellfish harvesting. If the marina project is constructed as proposed, recommendation will be made for closure of adjacent waters to the harvest of shellfish in accordance with 15A NCAC 18A MARINAS: DOCKING FACILITIES: OTHER MOORING AREAS. In addition, it is recommended that permit conditions specifically prohibit overnight live aboards at the marina facility. In discussing the various marina alternatives with representatives from Weyerhaeuser Corporation, it has been the understanding of our office that with the construction of the inland basin marina, there would be no additional docks or gazebos allowed on individual lots in the subdivision. The EA does not specifically state this restriction. If this restriction is not included in the permit for Gum Thicket Subdivision, the cumulative impact of individual docking areas could result in additional shellfish closures. - Shellfish Sanitation Section, P.

The following comments by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (NCDMF) on the subject document are offered pursuant to G.S.113-131. The NCDMF supports the concept of the proposed project however, we have one major concern that needs to be addressed in the Environmental Assessment. This concern deals with the potential of up to 400 lot owners being able to build single-family fixed piers. While the intent of the project is to build an upland basin and marina, there is no mention of a restrictive covenant to prevent the construction of single- family fixed piers. Tributaries of Broad Creels are classified as primary nursery areas while Broad Creek is classified as a secondary nursery area. The NCDMF has concerns with the cumulative environmental impacts of up to 400 additional piers on these sensitive systems. We would like to see a restrictive covenant to prevent the degradation of these important nursery areas. 843 Washington Square Mall, Washington, NC 27009.3532 Telephone 919-946-6451 FAX 919-946.3967 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 10% post-renoumer pepar EL. 4.5 9 Id Cc-AqE`1 A ffu '_ rr_ gA�kefati - I as-: __... ._ ...—_•-._--_ WEEP Flan@ I a -- '/ 6,o$9uj sIA.JC par`J fa" Ak s rJo6>� �e4 t 13' GEo -62cD ----- Clf RC•faia,Yero� ��GK1D 1 StrYwTfa G0.'f� Zoo -Ort cgvn, 4 4FPACOTN .

Project # 1086. Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the Environmental Assessment. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et. seq.), the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended) and the North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 et seq., as amended; 1 NCAC-25). The applicant proposes to develop up to 600 residential units, a 400-slip marina and other community amenities. The project site is located in Pamlico County at the confluence of Broad Creek and the Neuse River and consists of 1,324 acres of which 394 acres are wetlands. The site is predominantly loblolly pine stands characteristic of timber production use. Waters at the site are classified as SA -NSW by the Environmental Management Commission, designated as primary and secondary nursery areas by Division of Marine Fisheries and open to shellfish harvest/consumption. The applicant's dedication to environmental awareness and proposals to minimize impacts to primary and secondary nursery areas and open shellfishing areas are stated throughout this document. We will concur with findings of this environmental document provided the following conditions are met: Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries • 1721 Mail Service Center • Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 733-3633 ext. 281 • Fax: (919) 715-7643 Gum Thicket 2 January 4, 2001 ♦ Restrictive covenants are incorporated to prohibit the construction of private docks and piers. ♦ Restrictive covenants are incorporated to prohibit wetland fill by lot owners. ♦ Any in -water excavations adhere to an April 1 to September 30 moratorium. ♦ The tract of land being considered for development is prime black bear habitat; therefore, future lot owners will undoubtedly encounter bears. The number of people desiring to live in new residential developments in rural North Carolina is increasing rapidly and so are the number of reports NC Wildlife Resources Commission receives regarding bears walking through yards, tearing up trash cans and bear/people encounters. The applicant should help develop and distribute information to educate residents about bear behavior and how to react when encountering bears in a residential setting. For additional information contact Robert Norville, District 2 Wildlife Biologist, at (252) 523-8540. We appreciate the opportunity to review and comment on this project.

Common soil units of upland areas include Wahee fine sandy loam, Argent loam, Yonges loamy fine sand, Fork loamy fine sand, and Altavista loamy fine sand. There are approximately 394 acres of tidal and non -tidal wetlands on the tract. Dominant vegetation within the coastal wetland areas include Spartina alternflora, Spartina patens, and Juncus roemarianus. Freshwater wetlands are dominated by Nyssa sylvatica, Acer rubrum, Gordonia lasianthus, Cjrilla racemiora, and Smilax species. Hydric soils on the tract include Lafitte muck, Argent loam, and Yonges loamy fine sand. The tract has elevations ranging from 2 ft. to 8 ft. above Mean Sea Level (MSL), with an average upland elevation of approximately 5 ft. above MSL. Water depths range from —2 ft. NWL near the proposed entrance channel to approximately —9 ft. NWL within the main channel of Broad Creek. Mean lunar tide range in this area is less than 0.5 ft. However, wind tidal amplitudes are commonly up to 1.5 ft. The NC Division of Water Quality classifies the waters adjacent to the site as SA and Nutrient Sensitive Waters (NSW). Those waters of Broad and Brown Creeks upstream of a straight line from the north shore of Broad Creek to the south shore at the mouth of Tar Creek are closed to shellfishing. Tributaries of Broad Creek (Tar Creek, Paris Creek, and Mill Creek) are designated primary nursery areas (PNA) while waters of the main stem of Broad Creek adjacent to the tract have been designated as a secondary nursery area. Cedar Creek, located on the eastern side of the tract, has also been designated PNA. Gum Thicket Creek, located on the south side of the tract, has not been designated as either PNA or secondary nursery area. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT: Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Co. — Gum Thicket PAGE #4 Weyerhaeuser Company has owned the Gum Thicket tract since the 1950's. A 500 acre portion of the tract was planted in the late 1950's and mid 1960's. A southern portion consisting of 243 acres was clear-cut between 1988 and 1989. In 1991, this section was chopped, burned, and hand planted with loblolly pines at a 500 trees per acre schedule. The northeast portion of the property (approximately 600 acres) received a thinning in 1993. There has been no additional harvesting on the tract since the 1993 thinning. The Gum Thicket property is not zoned by Pamlico County. The CAMA Land Use Plan for Pamlico County classifies this area as rural with services. Currently there are no utility services on the tract. Arrangements have been made with Pamlico County, Bay River Metropolitan Sewerage District, and Tidelands EMC for future water, sewer, and electric services respectively. Adjacent riparian landowners have been identified as John Tilton of Merrit, NC; Barbara Muse of Farmville, NC; Joseph Young of Oriental, NC; and the NC Department of Transportation. Project Description Gum Thicket Marina and Residential Development will be predominantly a 600 home site :) residential community (overall project density = one unit per two acres) with an associated 400 slip marina, recreational, and service amenities. The project seeks to achieve natural resource protection by incorporating the following design elements: minimize total density and impervious services; buffer coastal wetlands and waters; reduce site clearing through fingerprinting; reduce paved right-of-ways; establish and maintain a framework of nature trails; and manage stormwater on -site. The marina will be located within a 1700 ft. x 675 ft. upland basin (-8 ft. NWL) and accessed via a 600 ft. x 150 ft. access channel (-9 ft. NWL) within Broad Creek connecting to a 1300 ft. x 75 ft. access canal dug into high ground (-8 ft. NWL) immediately downstream of Paris Creek. The basin marina will serve to consolidate boating use into a single area that can be more effectively regulated. The applicant has agreed to a permit condition limiting docking facilities on the tract to only the marina basin if applicant's marina proposal is granted. This permit condition would be enforced locally via protective covenants. As a result disturbance to sensitive primary nursery areas will be minimized. The presence of a dockmaster and pump -out station will help ensure proper wastewater disposal. Spoil generated from the excavation will be placed within 16 pre -selected, high ground disposal sites within the tract. Much of this material will be utilized on -site for road base material, building pads, and privacy berms around the road system. FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT: Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Co. - Gum Thicket PAGE k5 In order to stabilize the man-made basin and entrance canal, the applicant will install approximately 7,500 ft. of vinyl bulkhead with a concrete cap. Approximately 3,800 ft. of NCDOT Class 2 granite rock will be placed an average of 7.5 ft. waterward of the NWL on the Neuse River shoreline between the adjacent Young property and Gum Thicket Creek. This rock structure will be placed in an effort to stop severe erosion that has been measured to be a loss of 12 ft. to 15 ft. per year. Preliminary modeling of dissolved oxygen levels indicates more favorable conditions within the proposed single, large basin. Prompted by Division of Water Quality recommendations, a 1,100 ft. long circulation channel has been designed to connect the marina basin to a tidal tributary on the southern side of the proposed basin. The circulation channel is aligned with the entrance canal on the opposite side of the basin to promote flow -through currents. Approximately 925 ft. of the channel will consist of an open ditch (invert elevation = -2 ft. NWL) with banks graded to a 3:1 slope. The side slopes will be planted with appropriate hydrophytic vegetation (e.g. S. patens, J. roemarianus) providing bank stabilization. Sumps (invert elevations = -5 ft. NWL) at each end of the open -ditch channel will serve as sediment retention areas and will provide the necessary hydrologic head for flushing. The ditch will be contiguous with a 200 ft. culvert pipe (36 in. diameter) that will tie into the southern side of the basin at -7 ft. NWL. The culvert pipe is required for this portion of the circulation channel in order to cross underneath an access road and provide a permanently submerged basin connection. The community will provide residential living oriented around recreational boating amenities including: parking, boat ramp (30 ft. x 70 ft. within marina basin), RV and boat storage, clubhouse, marina center, pool, tennis courts, nature trails, canoeing, kayaking, and other outdoor activities. To facilitate these outdoor activities, the applicant is proposing three small dock structures as described below.

NWL). Approximately 90,000 ft.Z of open water within Broad Creek will be excavated to a depth of —9 ft. NWL. The excavation will generate approximately 613,000 yds.' of spoil which will be placed and permanently stabilized on various high ground disposal sites within the 1,324 acre tract. The installation of vinyl bulkhead around the access canal and basin will not result in fill because of the upland placement. However, the installation of the rock riprap along the Neuse River shoreline will result in the loss of 28,500 ft.' of shallow bottom habitat. Approximately 14,000 ft.z of section 404 wetlands will be filled for the community roadway system. The entrance canal will be is located on the Broad Creek shoreline just downstream of Paris Creek to avoid any coastal marsh impacts and provide sheltered egress in and out of the basin. The installation of the circulation channel will temporarily impact approximately 7,500 ft.' of coastal marsh and 404 wetlands primarily adjacent to the existing tidal tributary that flows to Cedar Creek. Weyerhaeuser will replant and monitor site to ensure that there is no permanent loss to coastal marsh species. There can be expected some short-term, construction related turbidity associated with the nature and marina docks installation, excavation of the access channel within Broad Creek, and the opening of the canal to the access channel. The combined nature dock platforms will shade 420 ft.' of open water and 220 ft.' of coastal marsh. The marina docks will shade approximately 60,000 ft.Z of open waters within the basin once they are built out entirely. Based on submitted application, if marina is permitted as proposed then no additional dockage will be allowed for the waterfront home sites. The point of entry for the proposed marina channel is currently open to shellfish harvesting. A recommendation will be made in accordance with 15A NCAC 18A Marina: Docking Facilities : Other Mooring Areas for a 100 ft. closure area adjacent to the mouth of the channel to the harvest of shellfish. In correspondence dated March 27, 2000, the DMF finds "that a natural resource [for shellfish] does not currently exist in the proposed area. Additionally, due to the poor site conditions; shallow water, sand bottom, and lack of natural clutch material, the potential for oysters to establish this area through natural process is unlikely." FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT: j Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Co. — Gum Thicket PAGE #7 Due to the size and magnitude of this project it is likely that review agencies will desire site visits to various places within the 1,324-acre tract. Much of the tract is in timber production and has not been thinned since 1993. There is limited logging road access on the site and it is usually gated. In an effort to make these visits as efficient as possible it is recommended that review agency personnel coordinate these visits through the DCM Morehead City Field Office. The applicant has agreed to provide access to any part of the project site via boat or vehicle. It is recommended that review staff have at least one joint site meeting to address any interagency questions or concerns. Additional site visits may be conducted as needed and are encouraged.

We fslt that the single upland marina basin would have the least overall impact to water quality than any other alternative that was being considered; however, there are still concerns that we feel w13 must respond to with regard to this project. The size of the marina will require closure of shellfishing waters 100 feet outside the man-made canal (in accordance with NCAC 1 SA MARINAS: DOCKING FACII-ITIES: OTHER MOORING AREAS) wld will affect waters classified as SA by the Division of Water Quality. This could be a violation of antidegradation rules of the Division of Water Quality and the US Environmental Protection Agency. We understand that few shellfish were observed in the anticipated area to be closed; however, we do not feel the correspondence dated March 27, 200C from the Division of Msrine Fisheries stating "the potential for oysters to establish this area through natural process is Unlikely" is pertinent to this issue. Shellfish will grow in these waters, and in adjacent waters they have grown well with planting of cultch and seed. We also discussed the possibility of a no live -aboard policy in the marina. We see no mention of this in the permit applimition, and we had anticipated that this condition would be included. Without a no live -aboard policy, we envision a number of property owners utilizing the marina and their boat as a living; area until such time in the future when a house might be built on their property.

The following comments by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (NCDMF) on the subject permit are offered pursuant to G.S. 113-131. The NCDMF has a couple of concerns with the project. The first concern deals with culverts. A number of the proposed roads in the development cross wetlands. There are no culverts shown on any of the supplied diagrams. The DMF feels that culverts may be needed on a number of these crossings to ensure hydrological exchange, and prevent road erosion. Culverts must be of sufficient diameter and bedded a minimum of 12 inches to insure exchange between areas. Another concern deals With the planting of coastal marsh plant species along the proposed circulation channel. A target coverage of 100% should be set, and monitoring should continue until 100% coverage is achieved. The last concern deals with the dredging of the marine entrance channel in Broad Creek. Since this area is a secondary nursery area the DMF requests that a excavation moratorium be observed from April 1 to October 1. If these concerns are addressed and incorporated into the permit then the NCDMF would not object to the proposed project. 943 Washington Square Mall Telephone 252-946-6481 FAX 252-975-3716 Washington, North Carolina 27889 50% recycled/10% post -consumer paper An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer OF wHfF9 O� PG Michael F.

Therefore, in addition to a permit from the Division of Coastal Management, an erosion and sedimentation control plan must be submitted to and approved by this office before development begins. The requiring of an erasion and sedimentation control plan is based on a mandatory standard for land -disturbing activity of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 [NCGS 113A-57(4) and 113A-54(d)(4)], which states: No person shall initiate any land -disturbing activity, if at least one acre is to be uncovered, unless an erosion and sedimentation control plan for the activity is filed with the agency having jurisdiction and approved. The plan must be submitted at least thirty (30) days prior to project commencement. The plan must include, but is not limited to, the following: A scaled plat plan of the site, showing the affected areas as well as adjacent properties which may be affected. Include contours if available. 2. Indicate critical areas such as wetlands, creeks, streams, drainage ways, marsh, etc. 07/17/2001 22:17 FAX ruZ Mr. Ed Mitchell Weyerhaeuser Real Estate May 4, 2001 Page 2 include a brief narrative describing the activities to be undertaken and a construction schedule. Indicate on the plat the measures to be utilized to prevent sediment from entering adjacent properties, such as location of silt fences, silt basins, diversion ditches, areas to be seeded, etc. Include seeding and mulching specifications for both temporary and permanent stabilization. 6. Include any other pertinent information directed at controlling offsite sedimentation, slope degradation, and erosion. Please be advised that the plan will be considered incomplete, and the statutory review period will not begin, unless a non fu -rendable plan review processing fee, payable by check or money order made out to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, is included. The amount of the fee is based on $40 for each whole or fiactional acre of land to be disturbed (including offsite borrow or waste areas). To begin this project without the approval of an erosion/sedimentation control plan will be considered a violation of the Act and may lead to the assessment of a civil penalty of up to $5000 initially plus $5000 per day for each day the project is deemed in violation.

I have reviewed this application and it appears that the project is consistent with the 07H.0208 Use Standards for the Estuarine System. One particular issue that requires further discussion is the potential closure of open shellfish waters. The access channel for the marina basin will be located within a portion of Broad Creek that remains open to shellfish harvesting. This channel location would close a 100 ft. area within Broad Creek on either side of the channel itself. On March 24, 2000, staff from the Division of Marine Fisheries' Washington Regional Office examined a 30,000 ft.Z area within the potential closure zone for oysters. A total of five (5) oysters were found north of the proposed inlet. No spat was discovered. Based on these findings DMF concluded that, "a natural resource does not currently exist [for oysters] in the proposed area Additionally, due to the poor site conditions; shallow water, sand bottom, and lack of natural clutch material, the potential for oysters to establish this area through natural process is unlikely." This determination by DMF satisfies the intent of 07H.0208(b)(5)(E) to protect water quality within shellfishing areas. Therefore, I support the issuance of said permit with the following conditions. The project will be carried out in accordance with the workplan drawings submitted as part of the Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company — Gum Thicket CAMA Application dated March 14, 2001, and received as complete on March 30, 2001 by the Division of Coastal Management. MEMORANDUM Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Co. — Gum Thicket August 6, 2001 Page 2 2. 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 locally via protective covenants, deed restrictions, etc. 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 the 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. Marina, Access Channel, and Access Canal Excavation 3. In order to protect juvenile shrimp and finfish populations, no channel excavation or excavation in the existing basin is permitted between April 1 and September 30 of any year without prior approval of the Division of Marine Fisheries in consultation with the Division of Coastal Management. 4. At least one week prior to initiation of construction, the permittee will contact the Division of Archives & History at 919-733-4763, providing this agency the opportunity to monitor construction. If significant archaeological features are exposed, this agency will be allowed reasonable time to record and/or recover features prior to continuation of work 5. An earthen plug will be left between the proposed inland basin (mine site) and Broad Creek until excavation landward of the plug has been completed. To prevent sedimentation in adjacent waters, 24 hours will be allowed to elapse before the plug is removed. 6. All excavated materials will be confined above the normal water line and landward of regularly or irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spillover of solids into any wetlands or surrounding waters. 7.

Areas of Environmental Concern (AECs) impacted by the project include Public Trust Areas, Estuarine Waters, Coastal Shoreline and Coastal Wetlands. I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the 1992 Pamlico County LUP, as amended July 26, 2001 and offer the following comments. _Thegeneral area of the project is classified as Rural with Services. The Coastal Shoreline AEC is classified as Conservation I, the Coastal Wetlands AEC is classified as Conservation III and the Public Trust Areas and Estuarine Waters AEC is classified as Conservation IV. Pamlico County has established a permanent conservation zone within the Conservation I classification. This zone is located within 75 feet of the mean high water level for all shorelines bordering estuarine and public trust waters. All construction activities are prohibited in this zone, except for shoreline stabilization activities which meet the State's minimum permitting requirements, marinas, piers and other structures providing water access, boat ramps and paving for access which complies with the 7H use standards. While marinas are allowed in this conservation zone, policies regarding Residential, Commercial and Industrial Development Impacts on Resources clarify that commercial buildings associated with marinas are not allowed. Marina and Floating Home Development Policies allow open water and upland marinas provided state requirements and certain local standards contained in the Plan are satisfied. The following local policies are applicable to this project: 1) Pump -out facilities and permanent restroom facilities must be provided for commercial marinas. 2) Off-street parking at the ratio of one-half space for each boat slip at open water and upland marinas and for each dry storage space must be provided for commercial marinas. 3) At least one dry fire hydrant accessible for use by the volunteer fire department must be provided at the marina. The project must also comply with lot size requirements contained in the amended Plan for properties within the Rural with Services classification. Pamlico County implements these lot size requirements through the Subdivision Ordinance. Provided all local, state and federal requirements can be satisfied, including the above referenced marina 1 of 8/13/01 10:33 AM [Fwd: Gum Thicket (Weyerhaeuser) LUP Consistency] policies and restrictions on development in the Conservation I classification, this project appears to be consistent with the amended 1992 Pamlico County Land Use Plan.

Much of the information pertains to ambient water quality data and its use for predicted dissolved oxygen (DO) modeling within the basin and its entrance channel. One concern of the Division related to the appropriateness of the ambient water quality data used in the marina DO models. According to your letter, staff from the Intensive Survey Unit of the Division's Environmental Sciences Branch questioned the use of Piney Point water quality data for modeling predicted DO concentrations of the proposed marina basin and entrance channel. Specifically stated, "it is the staffs opinion that ambient data from Station #180 is unacceptable as the basis for the design of the Gum Thicket marina basin due to its location." During project design and preliminary modeling, the applicant decided to use ambient data from Station 4180 at Piney Point for two reasons: (1) the relative proximity of this water quality station to the location of the proposed marina entry channel, and (2) the comprehensiveness of the data set during periods of reduced DO levels correlating with increased water temperatures and increased biological oxygen demand (i.e. representing `worst -case' scenarios during hot, stagnant summer months). While the Piney Point station is located at the mouth of Broad Creek (thus subjected more readily to physiochemical influences of Pamlico Sound), it was the belief of the applicant that the physiography of Broad Creek lends itself to rather favorable flushing conditions at the location of the proposed marina entry channel. Therefore, ambient water quality would be expected to be relatively homogeneous between the two locations. To document ambient data at the proposed site and to provide a means for data extrapolation, DO levels were measured in Broad Creek (near the proposed entrance channel) by staff of Land Management Group (LMG, Inc.) during September and October of 1999. The DO levels recorded in Broad Creek proved to be comparable to those values recorded by the state at Station #180. Since ambient data at Piney Point was available through the Neuse River Rapid Response Team for each month of the summer of 1999 (weekly measurements recorded from May through August), the applicant believes that this would be a more reliable data set for modeling purposes. In light of recent comments (letter dated August 4, 2000) regarding the project EA, the applicant requested additional data from the recommended Bay River Station (located north of Broad Creek in a separate creek system). Data from this station are limited. Ambient water quality parameters are measured monthly rather than weekly since this station is not part of the collaborative Modeling and Monitoring Project. In addition, data were collected only three times during the requested period (May through October 1999) due to inclement weather and other sampling difficulties. Based on the location of this station and the paucity of data, the applicant believes that these data may not accurately reflect ambient conditions in Broad Creek. Nonetheless, all available data (from Piney Point, Broad Creek, and Bay River during 1999) were gathered and comparative analyses conducted to determine relative appropriateness of each data set. The Bay River and Piney Point data were analyzed during the three corresponding time periods (on or near June 30, July 29, and October 28) in which data were available. The readings were evaluated at three depths: surface, mid, and bottom. During these times, Piney Point DO readings averaged 0.71 mg/L less than the Bay River readings at all three depths (refer to Table 1). Similarly, Piney Point DO readings during September and October averaged 0.26 mg/L lower and 0.36 mg/L higher (refer to Tables 2 and 3), respectively, than DO levels recorded in Broad Creek (near the mouth of Paris Creek). This analysis demonstrates that DO readings are comparable between stations (refer to Figure 1) and that the use of data collected at the Piney Point Station during the summer of 1999 actually represents the most conservative (i.e. `worst -case') scenario for modeling purposes. Based upon DWQ's comments, the model was run with available data from all three areas (Piney Point, Broad Creek, and Bay River). The mean DO concentrations for Piney Point, Broad Creek, and Bay River stations were 6.78 mg1L, 6.7 mg1L, and 7.6 mg/L, respectively. The three mean DO concentrations were inserted into each model run. Other parameters of the model were based on conservative (i.e. `worst -case') conditions, including high in situ sediment oxygen demand (SOD) (2.31 ghn2/day), no boat activity (0 boat hours/day), a low reaeration coefficient (0.3/day) and limited tidal amplitude (0.5 ft.). In all three runs, the predicted DO level for the marina basin exceeds the 5.0 mg/L water quality standard (refer to Models 1, 2, and 3). Based upon the state -recommended water quality model, the proposed marina design will promote DO levels to exceed the 5.0 mg/L standard. Therefore, it is our opinion that additional sampling and/or modeling is not necessary. Data from three different stations have been evaluated and used for modeling purposes. Questions were also raised as to the design of the upland basin marina and its entrance channel. Specifically, your office has recommended exploring the opportunity to use two outlets to facilitate flushing. From the inception of the project, various configurations of the basin and channel were designed and subsequently tested through the DO modeling program. Numerous design constraints, including predicted DO levels and potential nursery/wetland impacts, have led the applicant to the current design. One of the early iterations of the design included a flow - through basin (utilizing two outlets). However, this option was determined to be unfavorable based upon unavoidable impacts to nursery areas, coastal marsh, freshwater wetlands, and shellfish resources (another outlet would automatically result in a second shellfish closure). The current path of the entrance channel is the only area in which water access can be achieved without directly impacting coastal marsh and 404 wetlands. Indeed, the multiple adverse environmental impacts associated with a secondary outlet seemed to outweigh the benefit of potentially higher DO levels in the marina basin. Other design considerations have been incorporated to enhance flushing: (1) an elevation gradient from the interior of the basin to the outlet, (2) a southwest/northeast orientation coinciding with prevailing summer winds, and (3) a relatively wide basin (demonstrated to provide better flushing than a `long basin'). Many of these issues have been presented to, and discussed with, various agency representatives (including DWQ and Neuse River Rapid Response Team stag) during previous meetings. Based upon agency consultation and comments, the current upland basin design has been determined to be the most environmentally sensitive option. A single, large basin will confine boating traffic to a regulated space away from coastal marsh and nursery areas. The upland basin as designed is certainly favorable to hundreds of single-family piers and associated adverse environmental impacts (including but not limited to, unconfined boat traffic/disturbance in and around nursery areas). If you would like additional information or have additional concerns regarding the marina design and the model runs, please do not hesitate to contact either myself or Rob Moul at (910) 452- 0001. Perhaps we can arrange for a meeting if you wish to discuss this issue in greater detail. Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.

To prevent sedimentation in adjacent waters, 24 hours will be allowed to elapse before the plug is removed. 6. All excavated materials will be confined landward of the mean high water (MHW) elevation contour within adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spillover of solids into any vegetated wetlands or surrounding waters. 7. No vegetated wetlands will be excavated or filled outside of the permitted areas. 8. Excavation will not exceed 9 feet below the elevation of mean low water (MEW) in the access channel, and 8 feet below the elevation of mean low water in the canal, boat basin, and boatramp area. 9.

Your receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations. We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality certification is required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has been obtained or waived. In accordance with our administrative regulations, in most cases, 60 days after receipt of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if you have not acted on the request, or asked for an extension of time, by July 9, 2001, the District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
