The permit was violated by failure to install necessary and appropriate sedimentation and erosion control measures at 1181400 Dills Creek Lane, Blair Farm Subdivision, Morehead City, Carteret County. The violation involved the Estuarine Shoreline, which is an Area of Environmental Concern designated by the Coastal Resources Commission. Based upon the site visit conducted on 5/13/2004 by Mr. Schulz, the restoration requested appears to be complete to the satisfaction of the Division of Coastal Management. The Coastal Area Management Act provides that a civil assessment of up to $250.00 may be assessed for any violation. It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to assess a civil penalty for all violations in order to recover some of the costs of investigating violations and/or to compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources. Under the rules of the Coastal Resource Commission, a civil penalty in the amount of $100,00 is appropriate for this violation. You may expeditiously resolve this matter prior to the assessment of a formal civil penalty by accepting responsibility for the violation and paying the amount proposed above. In order to do this, you must: (1) sign one of the attached copies of an "Agreement to Pay Civil Assessment;" (2) attach a check or money order for $100.00 made payable to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR); and, (3) return the signed agreement and payment to this office in the enclosed, self-addressed envelope within ten (10) days of your receipt of this letter. Upon deposit of your check in the Department's account, you will receive a Notice of Compliance officially closing this enforcement action. If you do not send a signed agreement and payment to this office within ten (10) days, the Director of the Division of Coastal Management may formally assess a civil penalty against you. You will then have the opportunity to request a hearing on the penalty or request remission of the penalty. Thank you for your time and cooperation in resolving this important matter. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (252) 808-2808.

THOMPSON www.townofmorehead.com April 27, 2004 Mr. Roy Kittrell, Jr. 1801 Paulette Road Morehead City, NC 28557 APR 3 0 2004 RE: NOTICE OF FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH CAMA PERMIT CONDITIONS AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION #VO4-01 Dear Mr. Kittrell: This letter is in reference to my site visit of the development project at 1400 Dills Creek Lane, Lot #103 Blair Farm Subdivision, Morehead City in Carteret County, North Carolina, to investigate the development activity being done under CAMA Minor Development Permit Number 03-17. Anyone who undertakes minor development activity in a designated Area of Environmental Concern (AEC), and fails to act in accordance with the terms, conditions, or requirements of his permit, may be found to be in violation of the Coastal Area Management Act as specified in North Carolina General Statutes (NCGS) 113A-126. Any development activity within a designated AEC, that was not authorized by Permit Number 03-17, may also be a violation of NCGS 113A- 118. The following violations were found at the project site mentioned above: No erosion control or sedimentation device has been installed between your land disturbing activity and the adjacent marsh or water area. An effective measure of sedimentation or erosion control method must be installed and maintained until vegetative cover has been established. I request that you IMMEDIATELY CEASE AND DESIST any further unauthorized development activities within designated AECs on this property. Since the development is not consistent with the applicable standards, you may be required to restore the land to its former condition and/or bring all aspects of the project into compliance with the Act. A civil assessment of up to Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($250.00) may be assessed against any violator. Each day that the development activity described in this Notice is continued or repeated may constitute a separate violation, ADA/EOE/P Equal Opportunity Employee Provider Notice of Violation Mr. Roy Kittrell, Jr. April 27, 2004 Page 2 - APR 3 0 2004 which is subject to an additional assessment of up to $250.00. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought to enforce any violation (NCGS 113-A-126). It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to levy a minimum civil assessment of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) against all violators of CAMA Minor Development Permit requirements of this nature. This is done to recoup some of the costs of investigating violations and/or to compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources. Whether a higher amount will be assessed depends on several factors, including the nature and amount of resources affected and the extent of the damage to them. If the required restoration is not undertaken or completed satisfactorily, a higher civil assessment may be levied and a court injunction sought to order restoration You failure to respond adequately to my letter of April 14, 2004 has necessitated this Notice of Violation. In the above -mentioned letter you were asked to install silt fencing or some alternative type of erosion control method on your property to prevent sedimentation from infiltrating the adjacent water body and/or marsh. The enclosed Restoration Plan describes the action necessary to bring your project into compliance with the Act. Please sign the Restoration Agreement and return to me by May 7, 2004. Pending satisfactory resolution of this violation, and my submission of an Enforcement Report to the District Manager of the Division of Coastal Management, you will be notified of the amount of your civil assessment. Thank you for your cooperation in resolving this important matter. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me. CC: , Tere Barrett, DCM APR 3 0 2004 RESTORATION PLAN 1. A barrier line of filter cloth, staked hay bales, burlap or an effective sedimentation or erosion control device must be installed between the land - disturbing activity and the adjacent march or water areas, until such time as the area has been properly stabilized with a vegetated cover. I, Roy Kittre% Jr., agree to complete the required restoration outlined in the above Restoration Plan to the satisfaction of Morehead City's CAMA Local Permit Officer by May 7, 2004, or provide an explanation for non-compliance and a reasonable request for a time extension.
