6. Additional Information
a. Project Narrative
Pembroke Creek Park is an important resource for public access to Pembroke Creek and
surrounding waters. The park serves local residents and visitors for fishing, canoeing, kayaking
and nature tourism. It is a true neighborhood park, which many local residents may access by
walking or biking. The park also provides safe access to Pembroke Creek and surrounding
waters, which include 13 miles of marked paddle trails and five camping platforms on John's
Island in Edenton Bay (paddle trail map attached). There are two canoe/kayak access sites on
the Edenton waterfront one mile from Pembroke Creek Park, but these sites are exposed to the
rougher waters of Edenton Bay. Pembroke Creek Park and Pembroke Creek provide recreational
opportunities even on windy days when waters are rough in Edenton Bay and the Albemarle
Sound.
Pembroke Creek Park is also used for regional fishing tournaments. Bayside Marina, on the west
side of Pembroke Creek Park, organizes bass fishing tournaments three times a month, April
through October. These tournaments bring in approximately 500 fisherman and family members
from across the region. Local bass clubs also host four large tournaments a year that average
approximately 130 boats per tournament. These four tournaments bring in an additional 1,200
fisherman and family members from across the region. The fisherman and their families use
Pembroke Creek Park for parking and tournament events. The Marina and local bass clubs also
use Pembroke Creek Park for an annual fishing tournament for local youth.
The Edenton-Chowan Recreation Department will use Pembroke Creek Park for summer water -
based recreation programs. The department's canoes, kayaks and equipment will be stored on
site for easy access. The project will improve water access to all segments of the community
including persons with disabilities. Access improvements include:
Construct two, 50 ft x 6 ft piers with 20 ft x 5 ft T's off the existing boardwalk to allow
fishing in deeper waters.
Construct 14 ft x 4 ft wooden handicap accessible ramp from one of the new piers to the
existing timber platform (6 ft x30 ft).
Attach pre -fabricated floating canoe/kayak launch platform (8 ft x12 ft) to existing timber
platform (6 ft x 30 ft).
The existing 8 ft wide timber boardwalk parallel to the park's shoreline has approximately 6,260
sq ft of platform over water.

Project Setting
The applicant's property is Pembroke Creek Park, located at 716 Queen Street (SR 1204), adjacent to the
Pembroke Creek Bridge, within the Town of Edenton, in Chowan County, North Carolina. The property consists of
5.435 acres of conservation easement, with approximately 1,250' of shoreline; 408' along a man-made canal and
the remaining 842' along Pembroke Creek. The average elevation of the tract in question is 2' above mean sea
level.
Primary land use at Pembroke Park is recreational, including use for regional fishing tournaments, and as a canoe
and kayak launch for accessing 13 miles of marked paddle trails and camping platforms on John's Island in Edenton
Bay.
Structures on the property consist of a 285' vinyl bulkhead along Pembroke Creek authorized by General Permit
#64834A, an 8'Wx 1,0331 boardwalk paralleling the shoreline, two platforms, two ramp accesses to the boardwalk,
and associated parking outside of the Division Area Environmental Concern (AEC). Approximately 6,260sf of the
existing 8' wide boardwalk is located over water and meets the definition of a platform.
Adjacent property uses consist of SR 1204 on the south side of the property; Pembroke Creek to the north and east,
a man-made canal shared with a commercial boat ramp, docking facility and restaurant to the west. Across SR
1204 is a mix of retail commercial and residential uses.
Vegetation along the shoreline escarpment includes, but is not limited to, loblolly pine (Pins taeda), tulip poplar
(Liriodendron tulipifera), bald cypress (Taxodium distichum), groundsel tree (Baccharis halimifolia), Carolina
jasmine (Gelsemium sempervirens), cat brier (Smilax rotundifolia), common reed (Phragmites australis), soft rush
(Juncus effuses), cattails (Typha latifolia), witch cane (Arundinana tecta), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), and
a variety of domestic grasses. No submerged aquatic vegetation has been known to inhabit the water bottom within
the project limits. Non coastal wetlands are located along the northwest quadrant of the property.
The water bottom along the applicant's property consists of a fine silt substrate with a gentle slope. Water depths
average between 4' and 5' approximately 50' waterward of existing boardwalk. The nearest pier is a 115' private
residential marina with 20 slips located 200' south of the property and the Pembroke Creek Bridge. Pembroke
Creek is approximately 500' wide along north side of the property and between 350' and 400' on the east side,
adjacent to the bridge. Pembroke Creek is classified as "Inland" beginning at the bridge, and are Public Trust
Waters. While the water is classified as "B" for primary recreational is includes aquatic life propagation and survival,
fishing, and wildlife. The waters within the creek are also considered nutrient sensitive, requiring limitations on
nutrient inputs. There are no known archaeological sites or geologic formations associated with this property.
Development Proposal
The applicant proposes to construct two 6'W x 451 piers with a 5'W x 2017" head platforms extending a total of
50' waterward of an existing 8' wide platform/boardwalk paralleling shoreline along Pembroke Creek. The project
will include an 8'W x 121 floating kayak launch adjacent to an existing platform with a 4'W x 121 handicap ramp
extending from the right (east) pier to the existing platform and floating kayak launch. There are no existing or
proposed mooring facilities associated with Pembroke Park. RECEIVED

1) If approved there will be an additional shading of shading 884sf of open water for a total of 7,144sf of
shading.
2) If approved the total area of platform dedicated to the property for public benefit will be 6,604sf.
3) Installation of pilings for the proposed piers will result in a temporally increase in turbidity of the water in and
around the construction site.
4) A secondary impact of the proposed development if approved will be an increase in debris on land and in
the adjacent waterbodies.

A North 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 two 6' by 45' piers with 5' by 20' t-head platforms into Pembroke Creek, the piling,
will be driven by excavator. The applicant also proposes an 8' by 12' floating platform/kayak launch to
be installed along the existing boardwalk and an accompanying 4' by 12' handicap access ramp.
This portion of Pembroke Creek is classified as an Anadromous Fish, Spawning Area (AFSA). Water bodies
with the AFSA designation are considered critical to the lifecycle of anadromous fish such as Alewife,
blueback herring, striped bass, hickory and American Shad. Driving pilings can'cause fall back behavior in
fishes that disrupts their movements. In order to reduce disturbances to these fish on their spawning
migration a moratorium on in -water work from February 15—October 31 should be observed.
Contact Shane Staples at [phone] or shane.staplesPncdenr.gov with further questions or

I have reviewed the rules as they pertain to Piers and Docking Facilities and would like to offer the
following:
15A NCAC 07H .0207 PUBLIC TRUST AREAS
(a) Description. Public trust areas are all waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the lands thereunder from the
mean high water mark to the seaward limit of state jurisdiction; all natural bodies of water subject to
measurable lunar tides and lands thereunder to the normal high water or normal water level; all
navigable natural bodies of water and lands thereunder to the normal high water or normal water level
as the case may be, except privately -owned lakes to which the public has no right of access; all water
in artificially created bodies of water containing public fishing resources or other public resources which
are accessible to the public by navigation from bodies of water in which the public has rights of
navigation; and all waters in artificially created bodies of water in which the public has acquired rights
by prescription, custom, usage, dedication, or any other means. In determining whether the public has
acquired rights in artificially created bodies of water, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) the use of the body of water by the public;
(2) the length of time the public has used the area;
(3) the value of public resources in the body of water;
(4) whether the public resources in the body of water are mobile to the extent that they can move
into natural bodies of water;
(5) whether the creation of the artificial body of water required permission from the state; and
(6) the value of the body of water to the public for navigation from one public area to another public
area.
(b) Significance. The public has rights in these areas, including navigation and recreation. In addition,
these areas support commercial and sports fisheries, have aesthetic value, and are important
resources for economic development.
(c) Management Objective. To protect public rights for navigation and recreation and to conserve and
manage the public trust areas so as to safeguard and perpetuate their biological, economic and
aesthetic value.
(d) Use Standards. Acceptable uses shall be those consistent with the management objectives in
Paragraph (c) of this Rule. In the absence of overriding public benefit, any use which jeopardizes the
capability of the waters to be used by the public for navigation or other public trust rights which the
public may be found to have in these areas shall not be allowed. The development of navigational
channels or drainage ditches, the use of bulkheads to prevent erosion, and the building of piers,
wharfs, or marinas are examples of uses that may be acceptable within public trust areas, provided thatCEIVED

such uses shall not be detrimental to the public trust rights and the biological and physical functions of
the estuary. Projects which would directly or indirectly block or impair existing navigation channels,
increase shoreline erosion, deposit spoils below normal high water, cause adverse water circulation
patterns, violate water quality standards, or cause degradation of shellfish waters are considered
incompatible with the management policies of public trust areas. In every instance, the particular
location, use, and design characteristics shall be in accord with the general use standards for coastal
wetlands, estuarine waters, and public trust areas.
Consistent: Water dependent development to provide the general public with access to
recreational fishing piers and navigable waters.
15 NCAC 07H .0208 Use Standards
(b)Special Use Standards
(6) Piers and Docking Facilities.
(A) Piers shall not exceed six feet in width. Piers greater than six feet in width shall be permitted
only if the greater width is necessary for safe use, to improve public access, or to support a
water dependent use that cannot otherwise occur;
Consistent: Proposed piers are 6' in width.
(B) The total square footage of shaded impact for docks and mooring facilities (excluding the pier)
allowed shall be eight square feet per linear foot of shoreline with a maximum of 2,000 square
feet. In calculating the shaded impact, uncovered open water slips shall not be counted in the
total. Projects requiring dimensions greater than those stated in this Rule shall be permitted
only if the greater dimensions are necessary for safe use, to improve public access, or to
support a water dependent use that cannot otherwise occur. Size restrictions shall not apply to
marinas;
Consistent: While the area of shading impacts exceed 2,000sf the improved public
access supports a water dependent use where the overall public benefit outweighs the
resource impact.
(C) Piers and docking facilities over coastal wetlands shall be no wider than six feet and shall be
elevated at least three feet above any coastal wetland substrate as measured from the bottom
of the decking;
Consistent: None proposed.
(D) A boathouse shall not exceed 400 square feet except to accommodate a documented need for
a larger boathouse and shall have sides extending no farther than one-half the height of the
walls and covering only the top half of the walls. Measurements of square footage shall be
taken of the greatest exterior dimensions. Boathouses shall not be allowed on lots with less
than 75 linear feet of shoreline. Size restrictions do not apply to marinas;
Consistent: None proposed
(E) The total area enclosed by an individual boatlift shall not exceed 400 square feet except to
accommodate a documented need for a larger boat lift;
Consistent: None proposed
(F) Piers and docking facilities shall be single story. They may be roofed but shall not be designed
to allow second story use;
Consistent: Single story proposed.
(G) Pier and docking facility length shall be limited.
Consistent: The length of the pier will be less than the nearest pier to the south, will be
limited to 50' and will be less than %the width of the waterbody.

Recommendations
Chowan County Pembroke Creek Park
March 16, 2015

(H) Piers or docking facilities longer than 400 feet shall be permitted only if the proposed length
gives access to deeper water at a rate of at least 1 foot each 100 foot increment of length
longer than 400 feet, or, if the additional length is necessary to span some obstruction to
navigation.
Consistent: The maximum length proposed is 50'.
(1) Piers and docking facilities shall not interfere with the access to any riparian property and shall
have a minimum setback of 15 feet between any part of the pier or docking facility and the
adjacent property owner's areas of riparian access.
Consistent: The pier adjacent to the Bundy property is the closest and will maintain a
minimum of 15' from the riparian line.
(J) Applicants for authorization to construct a pier or docking facility shall provide notice of the
permit application to the owner of any part of a shellfish franchise or lease over which the
proposed dock or pier would extend. The applicant shall allow the lease holder the opportunity
to mark a navigation route from the pier to the edge of the lease.
Consistent: The piers do not involve any shellfishing franchise.
Based on the above review I would like to recommend that the request be approved
subject to the standard conditions.

Consistency Determination: The request is consistent with/not in conflict with the Chowan
County/Town of Edenton 2008 Core Land Use Plan certified by
the CRC on July 24, 2008.
Overview: The subject property is a 5.44 acre site with 408 linear feet of shoreline along
Pembroke Creek to the north and east and 842 linear feet of shoreline along a manmade canal
to the west. Water depths average between 4 and 5 feet approximately 50 feet from the
shoreline. The majority of the site is cleared, with Section 404 wetlands and shoreline trees to
the northwest. The property is located within the AE Floodzone. The property is a public
recreation site known as Pembroke Creek Park and is under a conservation easement held by
the Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF) and the State of North Carolina.
Existing site improvements consist of a gravel access drive and unmarked grass parking.
Existing shoreline improvements consist of 285 linear feet of vinyl bulkhead and an 8 foot wide
by 1,033 foot long boardwalk with two (2) overwater platforms and two (2) shore side access
ramps. The bulkhead is located along Pembroke Creek. The boardwalk parallels the shoreline
and in some areas extends over the water.
Construction of two (2) 6 foot wide by 45 foot long piers with 5 foot wide by 20 foot long "T" head
terminus platforms and installation of an 8 foot wide by 12 foot long floating kayak launch and a
4 foot wide by 12 foot long handicapped ramp/wooden gangway are proposed. A handicapped
accessible kayak facility will be created by connecting the floating launch to an existing platform
along the boardwalk and connecting the platform to the pier with the handicapped ramp/wooden
gangway.

Mr. Mark Powell

Edenton, NC 27932
Dear Mr. Powell:
The NC Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of the application
submitted on behalf of Chowan County for State approval for development of their
property located at Pembroke Creek Park in Edenton, Chowan County. It was received
complete on March 16, 2015, and appears to be adequate for processing at this time.
The projected deadline for making a decision is May 30, 2015. 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 March 16, 2015,
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 the 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 the property, or at a point along the road
right-of-way where a private road would lead one into the property. Failure to post this
notice could result in an incomplete application.
