PROJECT NARRATIVE
Applicant: Village of Bald Head Island, N.C.
Activity: Construction of four (4) detached low -profile rock breakwaters
Agent: Erik J. Olsen, P.E.; Olsen Associates, Inc.
Village Rep: Chris McCall, Village Manager
Location:
The project site is the 1,400 ft. of Cape Fear River facing shoreline located immediately
northward of the stabilized entrance channel leading to the Bald Head Island Marina. The
adjacent upland property (Row -Boat -Row) is presently fully developed with single family
residences. Between the platted single family residence (SFR) lots and the MHW is a vegetated
dune line and sandy beach. Buried in the landwardmost portion of the dune is a timber bulkhead
built several decades ago at the inception of Bald Head Island's development. The subject
shorefront is classified by the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) as an
"Estuarine Shoreline". RECEIVED
Purpose and Need:
MAY 19 2016
DCM- MHD CITY
The purpose of the proposed project is to address chronic erosion along the Row -Boat -
Row Estuarine shoreline and to protect single-family residences, public infrastructure,
beach/dune resources and associated habitat.
The primary objective of the project is to structurally reduce shore normal directed wave
energy and to complement an existing groinfield so as to reduce sand losses from the Row -Boat -
Row shoreline — thereby reducing the need for high frequency sand placement. Conversely, it is
highly desirable that the proposed solution be consonant with the Village's Beach Management

Plan such that it addresses the synergistic precepts of both its Ocean and Estuarine shorelines in
an environmentally sensitive and cost-effective manner.
Previous Activities:
In 1986, the island development company — Bald Head Island Ltd. — permitted and
subsequently constructed a field of four (4) timber groins along the Row -Boat -Row 1,400 ft. of
shorefront located northward of the entrance to the Bald Head Island Marina. Over the next 25
years, the four structures were repaired by Ltd. on an as -needed basis. The primary cause of long
term timber groin degradation was marine borers.
In 2011, the Village of Bald Head Island permitted and subsequently replaced the
seawardmost segment of each of the four (4) groins. Materials used for construction included
vinyl sheet pile and PVC coated timber walers and piles. Permit Conditions (CAMA 2-95)
necessitated that the groin elevations, lengths and locations remain unchanged. As originally
designed, the groins are relatively low in elevation and spaced at greater than desired distances
apart. Their resultant shore stabilization benefits are therefore limited.
The two marina entrance channel jetties located to the south of the Row -Boat -Row
shorefront were originally constructed by Ltd, at lengths which over time failed to effectively
control shoaling due to northerly directed littoral transport along West Beach. As a result, high
frequency maintenance dredging of the navigation channel had been required in order to provide
reasonably reliable ferry and barge access between the mainland and the island. To complement
this activity, "advance dredging" of the shorefront immediately southward of the south jetty was
likewise performed on a high frequency basis in an attempt to create a "sink" intended to
intercept sand before it shoaled the channel. Recent records indicate that the construction of
such a sand sink (and actual channel maintenance dredging) were performed on essentially a
monthly basis during a six year period. The average monthly volume dredged was almost 1,500
cy per event. All sand dredged was placed on (i.e. or bypassed to) the Row -Boat -Row
shorefront. This resulted in a relatively stable beach and dune system at that location through

2014. The Village's monitoring photography documents that on many occasions in the recent
past the subject groinfield was completely buried by excess disposal material.
In 2015, the Village of Bald Head Island formally assumed various marina entrance
channel and shorefront maintenance responsibilities from the development company. In
consideration of the undesirable frequency of channel dredging operations necessary to achieve
safe and reliable public transport to and from the island, the Village both permitted (CAMA 208-
86) and constructed rock jetty extensions at the ends of the two pre-existing marina entrance
channel structures. The purpose of the extended jetties was to reduce chronic channel shoaling,
as well as potential temporary closures associated with extreme storm events. Jetty extensions
had been permitted for this purpose in the past by the development company — but were never
constructed.
The Village sponsored jetty extension project was completed in early 2015.
Subsequently, the entrance channel has to this date not required maintenance dredging. As a
result, the Row -Boat -Row shorefront — no longer the recipient of high frequency (but indirectly
beneficial) sand disposal from either the channel and/or West Beach — has suffered erosion to the
point that portions of the previously stabilized dune line and beach have become highly
recessional. For example, between April 2015 and April 2016, it is estimated that the groinfield
lost sand at an estimated rate of 10,000 cy/yr., or more. Although the Village is planning to
"bypass" a limited quantity of sand from West Beach once or twice a year, it is clear that the low
profile Row -Boat -Raw groinfield is not capable of providing an acceptable level of shoreline
stabilization at that location — given a greatly reduced frequency of sand disposal operations. In
order to seek a reasonable balance between sand bypass activities and the protection of upland
development, as well as to reduce the continuing chronic loss of beach and dune resources,
additional stabilization measures or remedial actions are required seaward of, or along the Row -
Boat -Row shorefront.

Alternate Actions Considered:
The alternate actions presently available to the Village of Bald Head Island relative to the
future conditions of the Row -Boat -Row shorefront can be summarized as follows:
1. No Action — Essentially the Village would only bypass small quantities of sand from the
marina entrance at times when channel maintenance was required. The documented
performance of the 2015 jetty extensions intimate that such volumes may be negligible in
the near future. As a result, both the beach and existing duneline would be expected to
continue to recede. The net result will be beach and dune resource impacts as well as a
significant loss of storm protection and increase vulnerability of the existing riverfront
line of construction located along Row -Boat -Row. RECEIVED
2. Modification of the Existin¢ Groinfield — To raise the elevation of the existing fourr�4)1 9 2016
low profile groins would necessitate both a CAMA Major Permit and thejr�romRletcrl.!D CITY
replacement. The groins were last upgraded in 2012 and are presently in excellent
condition. Moreover, simply raising the groins would not provide suitable stabilization
subsequent to a companion beach fill at that location. Much of the wave energy
experienced along the project site occurs in a shore -normal direction. As a result, shore
perpendicular structures are not highly effective in reducing sand losses — much of which
given the proximity of very strong tidal currents — occurs back to the Cape Fear River.
Modifying the existing groins through the addition of rock T-heads, could result
in a stabilized shorefront with a beneficial equilibrated configuration after a companion
beach fill. Maintenance requirements along the residual shorefront would be minimal —
and therefore conducive to a greatly reduced sand bypass operation — as currently being
experienced. Neither T's nor L's added to the end of the groins within the Estuarine
Zone are allowable however, under current State regulations. Hence, this option is not
viable without a Variance from the CRC.
3. Increased Sand Bypass Operations — Increased sand bypass volumes at the existing
marina entrance channel would necessitate high frequency "borrowing" of sand from the
4

ATTACHMENT A
CAMA MAJOR PERMIT
DETACHED BREAKWATER PROJECT
West Beach shoreline immediately south of the southerly rock jetty extension constructed
in 2015. Presently, no sand is available from channel shoaling. To meet the recently
experienced erosional needs of Row -Boat -Row, it is anticipated that sand bypass
operations may need to occur every 60-days, moI (6 times per year). The continuation of
this process would adversely impact other portions of West Beach to the south which are
currently erosional and in need of a Winter of 2016 sand fill project. Additionally, the
occurrence of high frequency fills along the Row -Boat -Row shoreline is not conducive to
innertidal beach benthic recovery — and from an environmental impact perspective alone
is therefore not a normally preferred alternative shore stabilization action.
4. Construction of a Rock Revetment — Armoring of the subject shoreline so as to protect
upland development is an option available within the Estuarine Zone. Given the nature
of the wave and storm energies the site experiences, a suitably designed rock revetment is
feasible. The construction of such a stabilization structure would result in the eventual
loss of any natural beach or dune formation, as well as related habitats, along the 1,400 ft
shoreline under consideration. The "hardening" of this shorefront is not a preferred
solution of the Applicant, given the opportunity to maintain a beach/dune system through
the utilization of a more appropriate structural alternative — without sacrificing the
protection of existing upland development.
5. Placement of Four (4) Detached Breakwaters — Similar to T-head groins, the placement
of low profile detached rock groins along the affected shorefront can result in a
beneficially equilibrated configuration — subsequent to a companion beach fill — which
would be expected to require very little future maintenance. The net result desired, which
includes both a sandy beach and stabilized dune formation, can be achieved through the
designed placement of four small breakwaters between the existing low profile groins
(unmodified from their current design). The use of such structures — in the manner
proposed — is not prohibited within the Estuarine Zone. Rather, it is addressed as a
feasible "engineered" solution. RECEIVED

Preferred Alternative - Detached Breakwaters:
Since a principal source of erosional stress along the Row -Boat -Row shorefront is wind
and vessel induced wave activity, multiple shore parallel structures are warranted. Modifying
the four (4) existing groins by increasing their elevation would not be highly successful in
solving ongoing erosion, since much of the vessel related wave energy occurs in a shore -normal
direction. Furthermore, the addition of T-heads to the existing low profile groins is prohibited by
regulation.
Hence, several breakwaters capable of reducing (or intercepting) direct wave impacts are
proposed. More specifically, the proposed plan is to construct four (4) detached low -profile rock
breakwaters — each approximately 90 ft. in length along its crest (114 ft. overall including end
slopes). Each detached breakwater would be constructed between two existing structures and
sited below the MHWL in approximately 2 to 5 ft of water (MLW datum). As such, their
deployment would not constitute a hardened shoreline. Each breakwater will be constructed on
an underlayment which is a composite geogrid and filter fabric product manufactured by
TENSAR (ref. Product No. GC654050). This unique underlayment serves to distribute loads,
reduce settlement into soft sands and prevent scour by currents and waves. The underlayment is
placed directly on grade, upon which rock is placed (see Permit Sheet 4 of 4). The underlayment
will normally extend beyond the toe of rock by 2 to 3 ft. The predicted area of underlayment
required for each breakwater is 3,100 sq. ft., mol.
The strategic placement of breakwaters would initially combine the attributes of each of
the two types of stabilization structure so as to reduce the rate of sediment transport from the
eroding shoreline. Eventually, it is predicted that after detached breakwater construction and
sand placement, the existing groins will again become essentially quasi -buried and therefore only
partially active. This will maximize benefits to the beach/dune system and at the same time
greatly reduce the frequency of dredging operations associated with discrete Sand Bypass events
intended solely to benefit the R-B-R shoreline. As such, the detached breakwater project is
consonant with the Village's Beach Management Plan which addresses both its Ocean and

Estuarine (River facing) shorelines. A fundamental precept of that Plan is to enhance and protect
beach and dune resources, in both an environmentally and cost-effective manner. As such, the
detached breakwater project would reduce the future frequency of dredging operations and at the
same time protect existing development located upland of an enhanced beach/dune system. The
rock utilized to construct the breakwaters will create and maintain varying types of diverse
shallow water habitat along the Estuarine shoreline.
The subject shore stabilization project (detached breakwaters and existing groinfield) will
need to have a design sand fill and be allowed to come to a designed equilibrium condition.
Sand placement is not requested under this Application. Rather, the Village can place sand along
the Row -Boat -Row shorefront under the authority of two (2) existing permits, i.e. CAMA-208-
86 (Sand Bypass across the marina entrance from West Beach) and CAMA-139-10, sand
excavated from an existing Bald Head Creek ebb tidal platform borrow site.
Pragmatically, sand volumes available under the Bypass permit are small in magnitude,
i.e. 2,000-4,000 cy per event. Conversely, sand volumes from the Bald Head Creek borrow site
can be on the order of magnitude of 100,000 cy, mol (as required).
The design sand volume required to fill the subject Row -Boat -Shoreline after breakwater
installation is unknown at present. It will depend upon beach conditions at the time, but could
approach 15-25,000 cy. The current Plan is to episodically place Bypass sand along the Row -
Boat -Row shoreline to attempt to "hold -the -line" until permits are acquired for the detached
breakwater project discussed herein. Subsequently, a sand placement project will be
implemented that in all probability will address sand requirements at both Row -Boat -Row and
West Beach (also addressed by Permit 139-10). Such a larger project constructed by dredge is
most cost effective if combined. Note — It is presently anticipated that West Beach sand
placement may need to occur during the Winter of 2016-17 due to ongoing erosion at that
location. This could affect the timing of sand placement at Row -Boat -Row which is dependent
upon the timing of permit issuance. RECEIVED

It is believed that the Applicant's preferred alternative — detached breakwaters —
represents the least environmentally damaging practicable solution to the erosion problem under
consideration along the Row -Boat -Row shorefront. It is likewise consonant with the Village's
Beach Management Plan.
Relationship To Federal Navigation Channel:
The proposed detached breakwaters would be located in -2 to -5 ft MLW water depths. The
authorized depth of the federal navigation channel seaward of the structures is -44 ft MLW. The
congressionally authorized channel is some 1,500 ft or more westward of the proposed
structures. Hence, there are no predicted adverse impacts to the Wilmington Harbor Navigation
Project associated with the proposed activity. Since a portion of the Row -Boat -Row ongoing
shorefront sand losses occur directly to the Cape Fear River, the proposed detached breakwater
project can be considered to be net beneficial to the federal navigation channel.

ANOTHER REGIONAL GENERAL PERMIT.
Oneratine Procedures
a. Applications for joint state and federal authorization under this programmatic.
general permit will be accepted through the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management
(NCDCM). Receipt of a complete application by the NCDCM will initiate the State's field
review that will include a site visit and preparation of a Field Investigation Report and a state
Bio-Report. The NCDCM will forward a copy of the complete application, its Field
Investigation Report and its Bio-Report, to the appropriate Corps of Engineers field office,
thereby initiating federal review of the project. The Corps, upon receipt of an application, will
immediately assign an action identification number, acknowledge receipt thereof, and examine
the application to assure that it can be processed pursuant to this programmatic general permit.

JUL 2 2 2016
DCM- MHD CITY

The applicant and the NCDCM will be famished written notification of the Corps'
determination. Notification to the applicant will include a brief description of the administrative
process.
b. For those proposals that may result in a discharge into waters of the United
States, including wetlands, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) and the
applicant will be informed regarding the applicant's need to obtain a Water Quality Certification
in accordance with section 401 of the Clean Water Act.
c. If, at any time, the Corps determines that a proposed activity is eligible for
authorization under another regional general permit (RGP) or a nationwide permit (NWP), this
procedure may be terminated and the activity authorized pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the appropriate RGP or NWP.
d. The permit review process conducted by the NCDCM is a public process
involving publication of public notices in local newspapers, public hearings, and various public
appeal procedures. The Corps may issue a separate public notice for a specific proposal if it is
deemed necessary for compliance with appropriate laws, regulation and guidance.
e. This general permit does not, in any way, alter established procedures or
responsibilities, as required by federal laws, memoranda of agreements (MOA's) or
administrative regulations, with respect to the Corps' coordination with appropriate review
agencies. The applicant will continue to have the opportunity to rebut any objections to a
proposal.
f. The Corps will provide copies, of the application and plans, the NCDCM's Field
Investigation Report, and the state Bio-Report, to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and any other federal agency that the Corps determines to be a necessary review agency
(collectively, the "Federal Agencies"). Receipt of this material will initiate the Federal Agencies'
review. The Federal Agencies will be allowed sufficient time, normally thirty (30) days, to
provide the Corps with their comments and recommendations, including any.proposed permit
special conditions and recommendations of denial. The Corps may grant extensions of time for
Federal Agency review if justified by unusual circumstances. If an extension is granted that
would substantially delay an NCDCM decision, the application may be removed from this
general permit process.
g. The Corps will receive and review all Federal Agency comments as well as any
applicant rebuttal. ProVided all Federal Agencies and the Corps are in agreement, the Corps will
prepare a coordinated federal position incorporating all Federal Agency comments, including
proposed permit special conditions and any recommendations for denial. The Corps will
typically famish this coordinated federal position to the NCDCM within 45 days of its receipt of
the complete application, and copies of the Field Investigation Report and Bio-Report.
h. If the Corps does not concur with a Federal Agency's comments or
recommendations, the Corps will contact the Federal Agency and advise it of the Corps' position.

Attempts to resolve the issue may include initiating the referral procedures outlined by current
memoranda of agreement (MOA's) between the Department of the Army and the agency. No
coordinated federal position will he furnished to the NCDCM until and unless the Corps receives
written agreement from the Federal Agency that all issues have been resolved to the satisfaction
of that agency.
i. If any of the recommendations and/or conditions included in the coordinated
federal position are unacceptable to the NCDCM, the NCDCM will contact the Corps within ten
(10) days of receipt of the coordinated federal position and attempt to resolve the conflict. If
resolution of the conflict involves changes to the conditions or recommendations provided by the
Federal Agencies, the provisions of paragraphs g. and h. (above) will, apply. If the conflict is
resolved to the satisfaction of the Corps and any affected Federal Agency, the NCDCM permit
will be issued and the authority of this general permit will apply.
j. If a Federal Agency conflict is not resolved within the time necessary for a
decision by the NCDCM, the NCDCM may proceed, independently, to conclude the state action
without inclusion of the federal position. In such case, the applicant and the NCDCM will be
notified immediately, in writing, that the state permit does not satisfy the federal permit
requirements and that the proposal in question may not proceed without federal authorization.
k. If the coordinated federal position is not in conflict with state agencies'
positions, law, regulation, or policy, and is acceptable to the NCDCM, a state permit will be
developed by the NCDCM fully incorporating the state and federal positions. The NCDCM will
famish copies of the final permit to the applicant and the Corps. The NCDWQ will furnish a
copy of the Section 401 Water Quality Certification; if required, to the applicant and the Corps.
The Corps will not confirm the authorization of a proposed project under this General Permit
until the issuance of the NCDCM permit and, if required, the Section 401 Water Quality
Certification.
1.. If the NCDCM permit or Section 401 Water Quality Certification is denied, the
applicant will be informed that federal authorization is denied without prejudice.
in. No work may proceed under this general permit until the District Engineer or
his representative provides written verification that the procedures and conditions of the general
permit have been satisfied.
n. The NCDCM and the Corps will monitor all permitted work and periodically
inspect projects for compliance with permit conditions and applicable. state and federal
regulations. If any violation of the NCDCM permit is discovered which would also constitute a
violation of the federal position, both the NCDCM and the Corps, in accordance with their
respective regulations and policies, may take enforcement action.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Bald Head Island is part of an island group known as Smith Island, located at the confluence of the
Cape Fear River and Atlantic Ocean between Fort Fisher and Oak Island/Caswell Beach in Brunswick
County. The island is accessed by private boat or a private ferry service from Southport. The island's
west beach is adjacent to the Cape Fear River Inlet and its northern side is bordered by Bald Head
Creek and associated marshes. The project area consists of four (4) timber pile groins located adjacent
to the Cape Fear River, between the entrance channel to Bald Head Island Marina and the mouth of
Bald Head Creek, Near Row Boat Row. The shoreline frontage north of the marina entrance to the
mouth of Bald Head Creek is approximately 2,000 feet. Single family residential home sites border the
shoreline.
Following the construction of Bald Head Island Marina in 1981, accelerated shoreline erosion began to
occur on the north side of the marina entrance channel. The channel is protected by jetties which
extended approximately 125 feet water ward of MHW. The jetties initially interrupted sand transport
along the shoreline creating erosion on the downdrift side (north) and accretion on the updrift side
(south) of the marina entrance channel. The rapid accumulation of sand resulted in severe shoaling in
the channel. In 1986 the applicant's received authorization by CRC variance (CAMA Major Permit
#206-86) to implement sand bypassing methodology to achieve a sand transport equilibrium on either
side of the marina entrance. The sand bypassing project consists of dredging sand from the updrift
side of the channel and depositing on the down drift side. A series of four (4) timber pile groins were
constructed along the downdrift shoreline to trap the pumped sand. CAMA Major Permit #2-95
authorized the armoring the sides of the wooden groins, which were existing at the time. Permit #2-95
has received 5 renewals and most recently received a minor modification authorizing replacement of
the four (4) timber groins and armor stone. The permit is due to expire on December 31, 2019. The
existing marina entrance channel jetties were recently extended and armored with riprap which has
reduced the sand bypass and the need for maintenance dredging of the entrance channel. The
applicant has stated that as a result of the jetty extension the shoreline along Row Boat Row is no
longer receiving high frequency beneficial sand disposal from dredging of the entrance channel and
West Beach. Additionally, the shoreline is experiencing erosion and the shoreline has become
unstable. According to the project narrative approximately 10,000 cubic yards of sand was lost
between April 2015 and April 2016. The applicant has stated that the existing four (4) timber groins
are not capable of providing an acceptable level of shoreline stabilization given the now reduced
frequency of sand disposal operations. The permitted groins were approximately 250 feet in length
and portions of the groin remain buried. The existing groins extend approximately 50-90 feet below
MHW and the sides are armored with stone. Portions of the groin and stone are exposed at low tide.
The waters of the Cape Fear River are classified SA by the Division of Water Resources and are NOT
designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries. They are CLOSED
to the harvest of shellfish.

10. PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to protect the shoreline by constructing four (4) offshore riprap breakwaters.
The breakwaters would be installed to prevent erosion of the shoreline adjacent to the residences
along Row Boat Row. The applicant has proposed installing breakwaters that would be approximately
27 feet wide by 114 feet in length at the base, 3-5 feet wide at the top and 90 feet in length. The
proposed breakwaters would vary in height based on the river bed elevation (see sheet 4 of 4) and
would be located in water depths ranging from -2 to -5 feet at MLW. As proposed, the breakwaters
would be exposed during periods of low tide and high tide. Based on the submitted drawings,
approximately 3-5 feet of the proposed breakwaters would be exposed above MHW during periods of
high water. The applicant is proposing to install a composite geo-grid underlayment to support the
structure. The proposed underlayment material would extend approximately 2-3 feet beyond the
proposed breakwater and would be approximately 3,100 square feet in area per groin. As proposed,
the breakwaters would be constructed at a 2:1 slope. The proposed breakwaters would be located, on
average, 100 feet water ward of MHW and a maximum of 130 feet water ward of MHW nearest the
marina entrance channel. As proposed the breakwaters would be located between the existing timber
groins, oriented parallel to the shoreline and approximately 20-50 feet water ward of the existing groin
ends. The proposed breakwaters would be located approximately 1,500 feet from the Wilmington
Harbor Channel setback in this location. The applicant has stated the proposed breakwaters would be
constructed from a floating barge mounted with a crane and materials would be obtained from an
upland quarry.
The applicant states the shorefront of Row Boat Row will need sand fill to come to a designed
equilibrium condition. Sand placement is not proposed as part of this application. Sand placement
along the shorefront of Row Boat Row is currently authorized by CAMA Major Permit #208-86 (sand
bypass across the marina entrance from West Beach) and CAMA Major Permit #139-10 (sand
excavated from the existing Bald Head Creek ebb tidal platform borrow site). The applicant has stated
approximately 15-25,000 cubic yards of material would be placed along the shoreline depending on
the conditions at the time and sand volume required for design equilibrium. Additionally, the sand
placement would be initiated and consistent with the existing authorizations in place.
11. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed construction of four (4) offshore rip rap breakwaters would result in the filling of
approximately 13,400 square feet of shallow bottom habitat in the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust
Areas of Environmental Concern. Minor increases in turbidity can be expected during construction. No
navigational aids or markers have been proposed, although it appears that portions of the structure
will be submerged offshore. The offshore riprap breakwaters would provide habitat for some species
of marine crustaceans.

Recommendations for State Permit- VBHI Breakwaters
CS
It is the opinion of this office that the proposed project to construct four (4) offshore rip rap breakwaters for
shoreline protection appears to be consistent with the Use Standards for Public Trust Areas in 07H .0207 & 07H
.0208, the Use Standards for Coastal Shorelines in 07H.0209.
The proposed four (4) offshore rip rap breakwaters for shoreline protection would be located on average 100
feet water ward of the MHW based on the existing shoreline configuration at the time of this request. The
shoreline configuration can vary based the existing authorizations (CAMA Major permit #208-86 and CAMA
Major Permit #139-10) to place sand along Row Boat Row. The sand placement will likely shift the MHW
boundary water ward thus creating the potential for the breakwaters to be located in proximity to the public
beach. The applicant has not described in detail the "sand volume for design equilibrium" and consideration
should be given to the amount of sand placed in the near shore area adjacent to the proposed groins.
Additionally, the near shore sand placement may potentially cover the proposed groins. It is recommended
that the groins be marked with navigation aids and/or notice to swimmers and boaters of the location of the
proposed structures.
The proposed length, width and offshore location of the proposed breakwaters will result in the filling of
approximately 13, 400 square feet of Estuarine and Public Trust Areas AECs and the potential usurpation of
approximately 145,000 square feet of the same AECs based on the proposed location and configuration of the
existing timber groins. Additionally, the potential for sand placement to result in the groins being located in
more shallow depths, it is recommended that the size of the proposed structures be reduced.
In the absence of any concerns from the commenting agencies, it is recommended that a permit be issued
including standard conditions for breakwaters:
NOTE: This permit does not eliminate the need to obtain any additional state, federal or local permits,
approvals or authorizations that may be required.
NOTE: Future development of the permittee's property may require a modification of this permit.
Contact a representative of the Division at [phone] prior to the commencement of any such
activity for this determination.

MEMORANDUM
To: Courtney Spears
From: Michael Christenbury, Wilmington District Planner
Subject: Consistency Determination, Major Permit Application, —Village of
Bald Head Island, Brunswick County
Date: July 7, 2016
This project is consistent and not in conflict with the Village of Bald Head Island Land
Use Plan Update.
The applicant is proposing to construct four (4) offshore riprap breakwaters adjacent to
the Cape Fear River. The project is located in the Village of Bald Head Island in
Brunswick County.
Areas of Environmental Concern (AFC's) impacted by the proposal are EW and PTA.
Waters in the area are classified as SA. The area is not open to the harvesting of shellfish
and is not a Primary Nursery Area.
I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the Bald Head Island Land Use Plan
and offer the following comments.
The general area of the project is classified as Resource Protection.
In general, Bald Head Island allows development in Resource Protection classified
AECs, which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Village of Bald
Head Island Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum
use standards. However, none of these standards appear to be applicable to this proposal.
This project is consistent with the Village of Bald Head Island Land Use Plan

DATE: 6/1/2016
ANorth.Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) Fisheries Resource Specialist has reviewed the
subject permit application for proposed actions that impact fish and fish habitats,, The applicant
proposes to. construct four rip rap' breakwaters offshore of four armored timber pile groins near Bald
Head Island Marina. The surrounding waters are classified as able to support'shellfish.(SA) and are
closed to shellfish harvest.
Since. the construction of the Bald Head Island Marina in 1981;.the surrounding shoreline has been in
fluxvith continual need for intervention.Jetties were constructed to protect the;marina entrance
channef,.whichinterrupted sand transport that resulted in severe shoaling along the updrift sideof the .
jetties and within the channel. in 1986 sand bypass methodology was authorized through variance to
move sand that was accumulating on the updrift side and.place it on the downdrift side to compensate
for the associated accelerated erosion. Four timber pile groins were then constructed to trap the.bypan
sand. These:four groins Were armored with stone in 1995. Recently the entrance channel:jetties were
extended and armored, and as a result sand bypass is minimal and the shoreline is consequently
experiencing erosion. The applicant states thatthe existing timber groins are no longer capable of
providing acceptable shoreline protection. Therefore, the applicant proposes to coristruct four rip rap
breakwaters between the existing armored groins, approximately 20-50ft waterward of the groin ends.
Dimensions of the breakwaters are 27ft wide x 114ft long at the base, 3-5ft wide x 90ft long at the top.
Based on drawings the breakwaters would be exposed approximately 3-5ft above. mean high.water
(MHVU).. Sand 'placement will still be required and.is currently,authoriied under CAMA permits.g208-86'
and #13940
In general;.there issignificant concern that shoreline armoring brings about the need. for additional
shoreline armoring: As detailed above there has been a history of the need to construct additional
structures to alleviate impacts that have occurred due to the previous structure(s). In this case.as well,
there is,significant concern that these. structures.will only being.aboutthe need for additional structures. ..

If the project is authorized, a moratorium on in water work from 1 April to 30 September is
recommended to reduce the negative effects on critical fish life history activities, to include
spawning migrations and nursery functions.

All,

Pursuant to the CAMA-Corps Programmatic Permit process, the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management
(NCDCM) has forwarded to our office a copy of the CAMA permit application, Field Investigation Report and BioReport
for the subject project. The attached notice requests federal agency comments on this project by July 1st, 2016
The applicant proposes to construct four (4) offshore riprap breakwaters. The breakwaters would be approximately 27
feet wide by 114 feet in length at the base, 3-5 feet wide at the top and 90 feet in length at the top. The total fill
impacts to waters of the U.S. would be (3,078 ftA2 at the base). The proposed breakwaters would be located in water
depths ranging from -2 to -5 feet at MLW. As proposed, the breakwaters would be exposed during periods of low tide
and high tide. Based on the submitted drawings, approximately 3-5 feet of the proposed breakwaters would be exposed
above MHW during periods of high water. *The original proposal consisted of attaching the breakwaters to the existing
groin structures thereby creating T-Head groins. Through consultation with the DCM and the USACE, the applicant has
subsequently altered the original plans to locate breakwaters between the groins and allow for additional aquatic
passage and flushing along the shoreline, while still attenuating some of the wave energy. No beach fill is proposed with
this construction plan.
The proposed expansion project is located in the Cape Fear River, along the shorefront of Row Boat Row Bald Head
Island, in Brunswick County, North Carolina. Coordinates in Decimal Degrees are: 33.879403 N and-78.000633 W.
Additionally, a Google Earth .kmz file is attached for reference.
Please see the attached field investigation report /application for more detailed information concerning the proposed
project.
This notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements of the Magnuson -Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act. The Corps' initial determination is that the proposed project may affect EFH or
associated fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management Councils or the National Marine
Fisheries Service. Impacts are expected to be minimal due to the location of the project in open water and the existing
wave action, no coastal wetlands will be impacted, and the waters within the project area are not designated as PNA.
SAV is not present due to the high energy of the system.
The Corps has reviewed the project area, examined all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest
North Carolina Natural Heritage Database. Based on available information, the Corps has determined that the project
will affect, but not likely adversely affect the following species: West Indian Manatee, Green Sea Turtle, and Loggerhead
Sea Turtle. These not likely determinations are based upon the temporary sedimentation effects of construction and no
beach work (sand placement is not requested with this project) within the project area. The structures themselves will
remain an impact to species, due to species navigation around the proposed structures and the temporary
sedimentation impacts associated with construction and permanent loss of river bed. These impacts are considered to
be minimal and will not likely adversely affect the current existence of species or their habitats. The project will not
affect any other species listed as threatened or endangered or their critical habitat formally designated pursuant to the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) within the project area.
Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, Appendix C of 33 CFR Part 325, and
the 2005 Revised Interim Guidance for Implementing Appendix C, the District Engineer consulted district files and
records and the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places and initially determines that no
historic properties, nor properties'eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are present within the Corps' permit
area: therefore, there will be no historic properties affected.
Please contact me if you have any questions and please provide comments as soon as you can, or by July 1st, 2016.

Dear Mr. Olsen:

The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for State approval for
development of your client's property located along the shorefront of Row Boat Row, adjacent to the Cape
Fear River, in the Village of Bald Head Island, in Brunswick County. It was received complete on April 25, 2016,
and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is July 9,
2016. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the
review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the.initial deadline stated above, you should consider
the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended
review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from April 25, 2016, you may request a
meeting with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of
your project. Such a meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request
and shall include the property owner, developer, and project designer/consultant.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed
development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property
of your proposed development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where
it can be observed from a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole
or tree along the road right-of-way fronting your property, or at a point along the road right-of-way where a
private road would lead one into your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete
application.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the
appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if
you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
Si erely,

Pursuant to your RAI of 15 April 2016, we are enclosing the following additional
information:
1. Permit Application Fortes — DCM-MP-1
a) No. 4d. — Contours and spot elevations were shown on Permit Sheet 3 of 4
The back beach is about elevation +6 ft. NGVD29
The dune rises to about +10-11 ft. NGVD29 The building sites upland of the dune are at about elevation +10 to 12 ft. NGVqkEC E IV_ =-)
NGVD29 is approximately NWL
b) No. 5d. — It appears this item was misinterpreted.
MAY 19 2016
DCM- MHD CITY
The "development" proposed consists of the construction of four (4) detached rock
breakwaters. Each structure would include an underlayment (composite geo-grid and
filter fabric) to reduce settlement. Each breakwater would be placed between two (2)
existing structures (i.e. 4 groins and the south jetty) and slightly seaward of the
groinfield.
c) No. 6f. — Certified mail receipts have been forwarded to you via email by the Applicant
on 18 April 2016.

APR 1 8 2016

2. Permit Application Form MP-2
a
a) Underlayment details. The proposed underlayment is a composite geogrid and filter
fabric product manufactured by TENSAR (ref Product No. GC654050). This unique
underlayment serves to distribute loads, reduce settlement into soft sands and prevent
scour by currents and waves. The underlayment is placed directly on grade, upon which
rock is placed (see Permit Sheet 4 of 4). The underlayment will normally extend beyond
the toe of rock by 2 to 3 ft. The predicted area of underlayment required for each
breakwater is 3,100 sq. ft., mol.
b) Armor Rock will typically vary between 18" (min) to 36" (max). Each low -profile
breakwater structure will be "chinked" so as to be sand tight and stable.
3. Drawings — Scales — Permit Sheet 4 of 4
a) The Plan View and Section A -A by convention are Not -To -Scale (NITS), so as to best
present the details of the structure components and configuration.
b) Section B-B — The scale has been removed. It is now NTS. A revised Permit Sheet 4 of
4 is attached. Since the seabed elevation varies, so will the effective height of the
structure above the seabed. Hence, a scale is not appropriate for Section B-B.
c) The Title of Sheet 4 of 4 has been changed to "Design Details".
4. Additional Information —
The subject shore stabilization project (detached breakwaters and existing groinfield) will
need to have a design sand fill and be allowed to come to an anticipated equilibrium
condition. Sand placement is not requested under this Application. Rather, the Village can
place sand along the Row -Boat -Row shorefront under the authority of two (2) existing
permits, i.e. CAMA-208-86 (Sand Bypass across the marina entrance from West Beach) and
CAMA-139-10, sand excavated from an existing Bald Head Creek ebb tidal p0 ETV t D
site. DCM WILMINGTON, NO
RECEIVED APR 1 8 2016
-2- MAY 19 2016 olsen associates, inc.
DCM- t\!HD CITY

Pragmatically, sand volumes available under the Bypass permit are small in magnitude, i.e.
2,0004,000 cy per event. Conversely, sand volumes from the Bald Head Creek borrow site
can be on the order of magnitude of 100,000 cy, mol (as required).
Plan -of -Action. The design sand volume required to fill the subject Row -Boat -Shoreline
after breakwater installation is unknown. It will depend upon beach conditions at the time,
but could approach 15-25,000 cy. The current Plan is to episodically place Bypass sand
along the Row -Boat -Row shoreline to attempt to "hold -the -line" until permits are acquired
for the detached breakwater project discussed herein. Subsequently, a sand placement
project will be implemented that in all probability will address sand requirements at both
Row -Boat -Row and West Beach (also addressed by Permit 139-10). Such a larger project by
dredge is most cost effective if combined. Note — It is presently anticipated that West Beach
sand placement may need to occur during the Winter of 2016-17 due to ongoing erosion.
This could affect the timing of sand placement at Row -Boat -Row which is dependent upon
the timing of permit issuance.
Please let me know if I can provide any additional information related to this Application.
Thank you.

Subject: Consistency Determination, Major Permit Applicatio , —Village of
Bald Head Island, Brunswick County
Date: July 7, 2016
T)ns project �s conststent andlnoftn confltct wtth the village of BaI ea&IdlandtLand
se P1an�Update
The applicant is proposing to construct four (4) offshore riprap breakwaters adjacent to
the Cape Fear River. The project is located in the Village of Bald Head Island in
Brunswick County.
Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's) impacted by the proposal are EW and PTA.
Waters in the area are classified as SA. The area is not open to the harvesting of shellfish
and is not a Primary Nursery Area.
I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the Bald Head Island Land Use Plan
and offer the following comments.
The general area of the project is classified as Resource Protection.
In general, Bald Head Island allows development in Resource Protection classified
AECs, which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Village of Bald
Head Island Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum
use standards. However, none of these standards appear to be applicable to this proposal.
This project is consistent with the Village of Bald Head Island Land Use Plan.

RE: Village of Bald Head Island — Detached Breakwater Project
CAMA Permit No. 80-16 (SAW 2016-00589)
Appeal of Permit Condition No. 9 (Regarding Signage)
olsen
associates, inc.
Coastal Engineering
As recently discussed, the Village of Bald Head Island, as Permittee, takes exception to
the policy requirement that warning signage must be placed every 50 ft. along the subject four
(4) detached breakwaters. Simplistically, the Applicant believes that the standards required by
the USCG should instead apply to this site which is: a.) exposed to significant wave energy
entering the Cape Fear River from the Atlantic Ocean — in addition to commercial shipwake, and
b.) adjacent to the entrance of a marina from which ferry and barge traffic enter and exit hourly.
Moreover, the breakwater(s) will predominately be initially sited in extremely shallow water,
which will shoal even further after the placement of a sand fill landward thereof. That is to say,
eventually the waters landward of the proposed structures will not be navigable. No breakwater
will be located more seaward than the end of the north jetty rock structure recently constructed in
2015.
Accordingly, the Permittee proposes to install up to four (4) pile supported warning signs
in the manner described on the attached drawing. Our experience is that this design is consistent
with USCG standards and we will seek their written concurrence in that regard. Hence, we
would request that CAMA Permit No. 80-16 Condition No. 9 be revised to read that:
"The Permittee must install and maintain at his expense any signal lights, signals
or signage prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard through applicable regulations".
Please advise if a meeting at your offices in Wilmington is desired to discuss this Appeal
further.
Thank you.

At this point in time I simply don't have the time and energy to continue this discussion any further. Therefore, I will
agree that, by copy of this email, you may consider your permit refined to include your originally proposed
language. Please keep this email, as well as Sheet 1 of 1(dated 7/25/16), on site for review when a Division
representative inspects the project for compliance.
Please note that, in case liability issues arise from any future accidents involving the breakwaters, the Division will
include this correspondence in our official permit file for this project.
I trust that this satisfies the Village's concerns over this issue.

Subject: RE: VBHI - CAMA Permit No. 80-16 - Appeal of Permit Condition No. 9
Doug Thanks for the speedy reply.Unfortunately, the installation of 8 signs here(as recommended below) is still
considered excessive. I would note that the signs proposed by the Village are very large (ie36" square),reflective and
meet USCG spec. They are the same size and type as installed along the terminal groin constructed last year. In my
opinion , the spacing and placement proposed by the Village exceed the requirements of the USCG. Hence, we are
attempting to "balance" their regulations with yours.
In your continuing deliberations of our Appeal ,please consider the following:
1.The 1300 ft long terminal groin project constructed last year only required 3 pile mounted signs, as accepted by the
USCG. The crest elevation of the terminal groin is only half a ft higher than the proposed breakwaters.For the TG, DCNR
had no signage requirements.

- )
2. Neither of the two rock jetty extensions built at the marina entrance in 2015, resulted in any form of signage
requirements by DCNR. The north jetty is seaward of Row Boat Row.
3. The Row Boat Row shoreline presently has 4 groins(last reconstructed in 2012) with armor rock placed at each end.
DCNR required no signage for that project.
4. The subject RBRow shoreline will receive a hydraulically placed sand fill from BHCreek, immediately after
construction(and prior to 1 April 2017). Accordingly after fill equilibration, the waters behind at least 3 of the 4
breakwaters will not be navigable.Hence the signage density proposed by the Village can be considered as conservative
relative to the predicted eventual need.
For these reasons, we believe that DCNR should differentiate the requirements of this project relative to those
potentially recommended at other more quiescent and less dynamic locations where such structures are permittable.
Please advise as to how to best proceed here. We currently are out to BID on this project so as to be able to construct it
and the companion beach fill before 1 April of next year. Thank you for your continuing consideration of this
request. ERIK

Erik
Sorry for the delay in getting back with you - it took me a while to discuss this with Division management. Here is what
we have come up with.
The Division continues to believe that it is necessary to separately mark each of the four permitted breakwater
structures. Therefore, we continue to view that the proposed location of the marking pilings shown on your Sheet 1 of 1
(dated 7/25/16) are not consistent with the permit requirements. However, what we can do in this case is to refine the
requirements of Condition No. 9 of Permit 80-16 to allow for the type of piling/signage depicted on Sheet 1 of 1 in lieu of
the requirement that the sills be marked with yellow reflectors extending at least 3 feet above the water
line. Additionally, we can agree to allow for the markings to be at each end of the each of the four breakwaters ( 2 per
breakwater) as opposed to requiring these every 50 feet.
If that is acceptable, please consider this email as a refinement to Condition No. 9 of Permit 80-16.
If you have any other questions on this, please don't hesitate to give me a call.
Thanks and good luck with the project,
Doug
