The applicants are requesting renewal of their permit for maintenance dredging of their facility. The
permittee is requesting a 5 year renewal of the permit. The applicants completed a modification to the
permit in 1996, with respect to the designated spoil area. No work is proposed at this time. I have no -
objection to the request. I recommend the continuance of existing permit conditions, including applicable
moratorium dates, and a mandatory two week notification prior to any work, be incorporated into the
permit conditions.

Re: Application for renewal of Maintenance Dredging Permit
To Whom it Concerns,
The Oyster.Bay Homeowners Association presently holds DNRC Permit #41-89,
issued December 17, 1992. This permit allowed maintenance dredging of an existing
entrance channel and boat basin. Some maintenance dredging was done in the
spring of 1995 using a clam shell dredge. As a result of destruction of the docking
facilities by hurricanes `Bertha" and "Fran" In last half of 1996, re -dredging and
rebuilding of the facility was required. The rebuilding/dredging was done under a
modification to permit #41-89. All work under this permit, which expires December 31,
1997, is complete. By this letter we are requesting renewal of the permit for another 5
year period or maximum period allowed. No modifications are requested.
Maintenance dredging is not expected again for several years, but in the event of
another storm, such as "Fran", it may be necessary.
As a result of the maintenance dredging in 1996, we established a spoit area on one
of the spoil islands across from our boat basin. This area was made large enough to
allow for one or two more dredgings and was approved by Ms. Tere Barrett of your
office.
Spoil area plan and dredge site plan should be in your file, but it not, please advise
and they will be delivered to you.
Enclosed please find a Cooperative Bank check for $50.00 for the renewal fee.
Sincerely,
Char el "s R Cheatham n
