Elizabeth City, NC 27909
RE.NOTICE OF VIOLATION AND REQUEST TO CEASE UNAUTHORIZED DEVELOPMENT
CAMA MINOR VIOLATION #05-27-A
Dear Mr. Lassiter
This letter confirms that on August 23, 2005, Kimberly Hedrick, DCM Field Representative, and Ted
Sampson, DCM District Manager, were onsite at your property located at 1407 N. Williams Circle adjacent
to a tributary of the Pasquotank River located off N. Williams Circle, in or near Elizabeth City, Pasquotank
County, North Carolina. The purpose of the visit was to investigate unauthorized development of land
clearing, filling, and seeding within 75-ft. of the tributary from Pasquotank River. .
Information gathered by the Local Permit Officer and/or the NC Division of Coastal Management shows that
you have undertaken minor development in violation of the Coastal Area Management Act. No person may
undertake minor development in a designated Area of Environmental Concern without first obtaining a
permit from the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, North Carolina General
Statutes (N.C.G.S.) 11 3A-1 18.
1 have information that you have undertaken, or are legally responsible for, minor development by clearing,
filling, and seeding your lot in preparation for a home on the aforementioned property. This activity took
place within 75-ft. of normal high water for the estuarine shoreline that is contiguous with the Pasquotank
River. The area within 75-ft of normal high water is an area designated as Areas of Environmental Concern
(AEC). No permit was issued to you for work in this area. Based on these findings, I am initiating an
enforcement action by issuing this Notice of Violation for violation of the Coastal Area Management Act
I request that you immediately CEASE AND DESIST any further development and contact me about this
important matter. A civil assessment of up to $250 may be assessed against any violator. Each day that
the development described in this Notice is continued or repeated may constitute a separate violation that
is subject to an additional assessment of $250. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought to
enforce any violation in accordance with N.C.G.S, 113A-126.
It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to assess a minimum civil penalty of $50 against all
violations of this type. This is done to recoup some of the costs of investigating the violation and/or to
compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources. Whether a higher amount will be assessed
will depend on several factors, including the nature and area of the resources affected and the extent of the
damage to them. If restoration of the affected resources is requested, but is not undertaken or completed

satisfactorily, a substantially higher civil penalty will be assessed and a court injunction will be sought
ordering restoration:
The relevant statutes and regulations are available from this office, and I am willing to assist you in
complying with the requirements of these laws. A site inspection will be made in the immediate future to
determine whether this REQUEST TO CEASE AND DESIST has been complied with. I request that you
contact me immediately.
Thank you for your time and cooperation in resolving this important matter. Upon my submission of an
enforcement report to the District Manager, you will be notified as to the amount of a civil assessment for
undertaking development without first obtaining the proper permit.
Sincerely,
Brent Thornton
Local Permit Officer

REPORT OF INVESTIGATION: On August 23, 2005, Ted Sampson and myself went onsite and
found the lot had been filled. The fill seemed to be outside the 404 wetland fringe around the
tributary. A silt fence was found, but it was buried under the ground. After review of aerial
photography, and found estuarine waters to be coming in from Pasquotank River via the Pond
House: Passes under 2 culverts and another small culvert under the Pond House driveway. A
letter was mailed to Mr. Lassiter on August 25, 2005 for him to contact this office, because his
number is unlisted. We also found City of Elizabeth City employees mowing and weed eating
around the tributary and informed them to continue work, but if they had any plans to excavate, to
call our office for permitting.
