Re: Modification Req est, Town of Swansboro #112-05
John E. Skvarla, III
Secretary
1/30/14
Please find enclosed a request from Coastal Planning Services, hic. on behalf of the Town of Swansboro to
modify State Permit #112-05. The original permit was issued on 9/6/05 to the Town of Swansboro for the
construction of a dockwalk adjacent to the White Oak River in Swansboro. This permit is set to expire on
12/31/14 due to the permit extension act.
The current modification request is to construct a kayak launch and make improvements to Bicentennial Park in
Swansboro. The kayak launch will consist of a 4'X30' gangway extending off the existing bulkhead. Placed on
the waterward end of the gangway will be a 10'XIT floating platform and a 4.58'X24.75' double kayak ramp.
A 6'X45.5' wooden boardwalk running along the bulkhead cap will connect the kayak facility to the existing
boardwalk. The kayak.facility will be connected to the parking lot by a 6'X54' concrete sidewalk. A large
expanse of impervious gravel will be removed during this process resulting in impervious coverage being
reduced from 44% to 42%. Various landscaping along with a 8'X72' open air trellis will be incorporated into
the project.
A check in the amount of $100.00 was submitted for processing. The Proposal appears to be consistent with the
use standards found in 15A NCAC 07H .0208 and .0209. I recommend that this minor modification be issued
contingent upon all general and specific conditions placed on the original permit. Additionally:
1) The new expiration date of 12/31/14 should be added to the modification.
2) No formalized slips authorized.

Town of Swansboro
Bicentennial Park Improvements
Major Permit 112-05 Modification Request
Introduction
Major CAMA permit 112-05 was issued to the Town of Swansboro on September 6, 2005. The expiration
of this permit has been extended until December 31, 2014, in accordance with Session Law 2009-406, as
amended by Session Law 2010-177.
The permit authorizes construction of Phase I of the Town's Dock Walk project along the White Oak
River. This phase has been built, and consists of t 615 linear feet of public boardwalk beginning at
Riverview Park (located off NC Highway 24 between Main and Elm Streets). A minor modification to the
permit was approved in May 2008 to construct a covered platform as part of Phase I. Plans for future
development at the time of permit issuance included extension of the boardwalk along the shoreline to
Bicentennial Park.
The Town of Swansboro is requesting a minor modification to permit 112-05 to construct improvements
at Bicentennial Park. These improvements include an extension of the existing boardwalk, installation of
a kayak launch with floating dock and gangway, addition of a sidewalk connecting the existing parking
area to the kayak launch, installation of an open trellis, and landscaping. Repaving of the existing parking
area (end of Front Street) was recently accomplished as repair and maintenance.
Existing Conditions
Bicentennial Park is located in downtown Swansboro on NC Highway 24 (Corbett Avenue) at the White
Oak River Bridge. Although the park is located on both sides of the bridge, the project area is limited to
the park area north of Highway 24 and the adjacent end of Front Street, measured from the intersection
with Highway 24.
Existing improvements include a fishing pier with shelter, picnic facilities, brick walkways, bulkhead, a
section of boardwalk along the shoreline, benches, historical markers, restroom facilities, parking area,
and a connecting walkway beneath Highway 24.
Proposed Improvements
Z Town of Swansboro is requesting authorization to construct several improvements to the park. A
proposed wooden boardwalk extension will measure 6' x 45.5' and will connect the end of the existing
boardwalk to the proposed kayak launch facility, as shown on project plans. Safety railings will be
installed on the waterward side of the existing and proposed walkway sections.
Town of Swansboro
CAMA Permit 112-05 Modification Request
January 23, 2014
Page 1

The proposed floating kayak launch facility will consist of a floating aluminum gangway and polyethylene
platform and launch. The gangway will measure 4' x 30'. The floating platform will measure 13' x 9.75'
with a 24.75' x 4.83' kayak launch. Rails will extend from the launch for approximately 8' on both sides
at either end. The facility will include guardrails on the gangway and security curbing on the floating
platform. It is designed to meet ADA accessibility requirements.
A new sidewalk measuring 6' x 54' (at the center line) will connect the existing parking area to the kayak
launch. An existing open-air trellis adjacent the existing restroom will remain, with a new 8' x 72' open-
air trellis proposed for location adjacent the existing concrete sidewalk.
A grassed picnic area is planned adjacent the opposite side of the existing concrete sidewalk, to be
bordered by the new section of boardwalk and new sidewalk. An area of hard -packed gravel adjacent
the shoreline was determined by the project engineer to be impervious. The impervious area will be
removed and replaced with grass.
Large scattered chunks of impervious concrete are found along the Front Street end and coastal marsh
line. The chunks of concrete will be removed, possibly by using a backhoe or similar equipment.
Areas of new landscaping are located on three sides of the park (adjacent Highway 24, adjacent Front
Street, and adjacent the new trellis). Installation of new grass sod is proposed for all remaining pervious
areas.
An existing wooden bulkhead is located along the shoreline, beginning adjacent the White Oak River
Bridge and continuing mid -way of the proposed new sidewalk (see project plans). Repairs to the
bulkhead, as needed, are also proposed.
Summary
The proposed improvements to Bicentennial Park will expand water -based recreational opportunities
for residents and visitors to Swansboro. The project is consistent with policies for improving public
water access and other recreational opportunities that are contained in several Town of Swansboro
plans and policy documents. The Bicentennial Park improvement project will implement policies
contained in the Town of Swansboro Land Use Plan, Waterfront Access and Development Plan,
Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Plan, and report of the Downtown Renaissance Committee.
In addition to implementing locally adopted public access and recreation policies, the proposed
improvements will result in a decrease in impervious area at the project site.
The square footage of the Coastal Shoreline AEC at the project site (Bicentennial Park and the end of
Front Street) measures 19,383 square feet. Existing impervious areas measure 8,468 square feet, or
44% of the AEC area. The proposed improvements will result in a reduction of impervious area to 42%,

or 8,094 square feet. Disturbed area resulting from the proposed improvements will total no more than
6,000 square feet.

Dear Sir or Madam:
Through coordination with the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management we have
learned of your request to modify the work associated with your Department of the Army (DA)
permit issued on September 13, 2005, which authorized construction of a pedestrian walkway at
the Bicentennial Park, adjacent to the White Oak River, in Swansboro, Onslow County, North
Carolina. The requested modification request includes the demolition and reconstruction of a
pier, fishing dock and gazebo at the Bicentennial Park.
On January 1, 2011, we renewed general permit No. 197800056, (copy enclosed), that
authorizes the maintenance, repair, construction and installation of piers, docks, boathouses and
boat shelters, mooring piles, dolphins, jetties and breakwater structures in navigable waters of the
United States in the State of North Carolina pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act
of 1899.
Your work is authorized provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with your
submitted plans, the enclosed general conditions, and the following special conditions:
1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
submitted plans and the revised plans received on 7 March 2016, which are a part of this permit.
Please read the enclosed permit to prevent an unintentional violation of Federal law. As
this Department of the Army regional general permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to
obtain any other required approvals, you should contact appropriate State and local agencies
before beginning work.

Thank you for your time and cooperation. If you have questions, please contact Liz Hair, of
