Dear Mr. Lowe:
This is with reference to your request to modify State Permit # 131-83 which was issued
on September 5, 1995 and will expire on April 30, 1997. The action proposed in your
submittal is the relocation of an existing structure from one area to another and the addition
of stories to the bathroom facility, the footprint of which was approved recently and both
of which are located in the Estuarine Shoreline Area of Environmental Concern. All approved
stormwater measures must be utilized in order to satisfy the approved septic tank system
approach to the management of run-off from the facility. The project is located within the
Masonboro Boatyard property in New Hanover County. Upon reviewing the submittal I have
determined that the proposed action is consistent with existing State rules and regulations
and is in keeping with the original purpose and intent of the permit.
I hereby submit this Letter of Refinement authorizing the modification of State Permit # 131-
83 as described in your letter and plans dated February 28, 1996 and received in our office
on that same date. By copy of this letter we are also notifying the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers of our action. If you have any questions concerning the above or if I can be of any
other assistance, please advise.
Sincere
C. Robert Stroud, Jr.

Dear Mr. Lowe:
Through coordination with the North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management (NCDCM), we have learned of your request for authorization to
maintenance dredge approximately 300 to 350 cubic yards of material from a
30 foot wide by 60 foot long section of an existing access channel to the
Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, at the Masonboro Boatyard and Marina, in
Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina.
Your proposal continues to be consistent with the provisions and
objectives of general permit No. CESAW-0080-N-000-0291. Therefore, you may
continue your construction activities in strict accordance with your approved
State authorization and the conditions stated in the January 8, 1996, letter
from NCDCM. Failure to comply with the State authorization or conditions of
the general permit could result in civil and/or administrative penalties.
If there is a need to further extend the duration of this Federal
authorization, or if any change in your work is required because of unforeseen
or altered conditions or for any other reason, a written request for renewal
of authorization or plans revised to show the change must be sent promptly to
this office and the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management prior to
performing any such change or alteration. Such action is necessary as
specific renewal of authorization must be obtained or revised plans must be
reviewed and the authorization modified. A request for extension of
authorization must be received no later than thirty (30) days before
expiration of the permit.
Should you have any questions or comments, please contact Mr. Jeff
Richter, of my Wilmington Regulatory Field Office, at telephone, (910) 251-
4636.
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright
