Subject: CAMA major permits inquiry
Good morningl
I am the new Assistant Major Permits Coordinator with DCM (working Daniel Govoni's former area) and just wanted to
introduce myself as a new point of contact. Raleigh, it was lovely to meet you last week and I wanted to be sure you had
my email contact information. I am working on catching up on some of the permit applications that were filed while my
position was vacant and was hoping that you would be able to help me understand the status of the Corps comments on
the following projects:
1. National Audubon Society — Currituck County: propose improvement and expansion of several buildings, etc.
2. Phillip Carawan —Tyrrell County: proposes expansion of two rock jetties and filling of 404 wetlands to create
access roads in Albemarle Sound
3. Luann Barber— Washington County: proposes to build a bulkhead and backfill
4. Gerald Strickland — Beaufort County: proposes to construct 20'x33' boathouse in existing manmade basin over
existing slip
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated and please let me know if I can be of any assistance.
Thanks and have a great labor day weekend!

Good morning,
Just wanted to follow up on my email from earlier this week to see if you have comments ready for the Donal C. O'Brien,
Jr. Sanctuary and Audubon Center in Currituck County? The applicant is eager for the permit to be processed as we are
coming up on the 150 day deadline. Once I receive comments from USACE I hope to be able to finish the application
review. If there are any issues that would be easier to discuss by phone I will be available and in the office all day until

Cortney,
• Isabelle Cantrell project is still in review and I'm expecting to finish it by the end of this week or the beginning of
the next one;
• Clifton and Shell Spencer is being reviewed by Bill Moore in our office (252-948-3919);
• If the National Audubon Society project is the same thing as Donal O'Brian Sanctuary and Audubon Society, I've
already commented on it couple of months ago and my comment was that we have a permit SW7141103 issued
for this project.
I hope this helps

Subject: CAMA Major permit comments
Good morning,
I have taken over the cooridination of several CAMA Major Permit applications from Doug Huggett/Daniel Govoni. I
apologize, but in our staff transition, some comments may have been misplaced. Have you had a chance to review the
following:
• National Audubon Society (Currituck County) proposed improvements to docking facility, replace culvert,
demolish buildings, reshape waterfowl impoundment, renovate/construct buildings, construct trails, install
roadways/parking, and installing new wastewater and force mains at 300 Audubon Drive in Corolla.
• Isabelle Cantrell (Beaufort County) proposed bulkhead and riprap revetment at 233 Robert Cox Road.
• Clifton & Shelly Spencer (Dare County) proposed to excavate an upland basin & construct bulkhead along
existing canal, maintenance dredge the existing canal, and construct a new dock at 31 Beverly Drive in
Wanchese.

The Donal C. O'Brien, Jr. 201g
Sanctuary & Audubon Center
Project Narrative
The Pine Island Club was first known as the Palmer Island Club, and the original sEEfad was constructed -
in 1906. The "Island" was renamed Pine Island and so changed the name ofthe hunting club. The original
clubhouse was destroyed by fire in 1913, and the current structure was conceived and built in 1013 through
1914. The +/- 3,000-acre parcel remained an active hunt club until it was donated to the National Audubon
Society by Mr. Earl Slick approximately 30 years ago. The hunt club portion remained in active use until
the Audubon took over full management in 2005.
The Audubon established a Conservation Management Plan to address the myriad anticipated
environmental conditions due to the climate change. The plan includes:
protection, restoration, and management of the Currituck Sound marshes to promote high quality
habitats for birds and other wildlife;
maintenance of high quality water to support healthy population of submerged aquatic vegetation,
fisheries, birds, and other wildlife;
engagement of diverse stakeholders to work towards sustainability of a healthy ecosystem in the
Currituck Sound;
protection of important bird areas in the region; and
development of sustainable habitats for birds and other wildlife in light of projected sea level rise.
Parcel/Project Area:
Audubon's Pine Island Preserve consists of approximately 2,733 acres of land along the Outers
Banks, as well as marsh islands in Currituck Sound and (presumably) some submerged lands.
(Acreage total as per legal descriptions compiled in Currituck County GIS). All proposed
development is located within the confines of one large parcel (383.58 acres — legal description),
as well as the entirety of the small subdivision known as "Pine Island Estates." For the purpose of
permitting and calculations, the "Project Area" will be defined as the single large parcel and small
subdivision which is impacted by proposed development. For calculation purposes, Areas as in
GIS will be used.
Project Area:
Large Parcel:
Pine Island Estates:
Total Project Area:
Wetland Area:
347.04 Acres (GIS)
6.93 Acres (GIS)
353.97 Acres (GIS)
Due to the small size of development compared to overall parcel/project area, wetlands have only
been field delineated/confirmed in proximity to the proposed development to ensure impacts are
clearly identified (see site plans/grading plans for field delineated wetland). For the purposes of
lot calculations/coverage calculations, etc., wetland limits have been estimated from aerial
photography. This is reasonable due to the fact that the regulated area (coverage) will be a small
fraction of what is allowed due to the massive size of the property.

Wetland Area:
404 Wetland: +/- 1,321,018 s.f. (30.3 Acres) (Approx. from Aerial)
Coastal Wetland: +/- 7,063,296 s.f. (162.2 Acres) (Approx. from Aerial)
+ Sound Waters
The improvements requested in the application are in support of the Conservation Management Plan and to
provide new and renovated facilities to accommodate visitors and researchers on the site. Facilities
associated with the Hunt Club that are no longer necessary will be demolished and disposed. These
include:
• Bulkhead Surrounding Impoundment
• Invasive Species in Maritime Forest
• Existing Propane Tank
Two Sheds
• . Existing Kennel
Many of the existing structures will be replaced or renovated to make them effective and safe for public
use. These include:
Decks - Repaired
• Existing Bulkhead — Replaced with Vinyl CatMovtc)
Existing Docks - Rebuilt
• Existing Bulkhead with Breakwater —Replaced with Vinyl
Existing Breakwater — Replaced with Vinyl
• 1913 Lodge (new deck and screened porch) - Raised & Renovated
Guide Quarters Raised & Renovated
4-Bay Garage — Renovated into Open Air/Screened Gathering Pavilion
• 4-Storage Buildings - Renovated
• 3 Cottages - Renovated
• Existing Garage - Renovated
• Existing Grease Trap - Renovated
• Existing Gate — Replaced
• Existing Drainfield - Removed
New structures necessary to meet current public use standards and/or environmental standards include:
• Earthen Berm & Landscaping
20-Foot Wide Roadway
• Laboratory Building
Dining Hall
• Parking
• Stormwater Retention Features
Wastewater System
6-Foot Wide Walkways
• Culvert Extension*
Wastewater System & Forcemain
*The extension/replacement of the culvert is necessary to provide adequate cover over the culvert and roads
to accommodate fire and rescue vehicles.
**The future Visitor Center has been removed from the plan. The Audubon acknowledges that if the
Center is proposed, it will require modifications to the permits.
Finally, the existing impoundment will be reshaped to promote a more natural transition and purposed for
enhancing wildlife habitat. This will include removal of the existing bulkhead surrounding the
impoundment, reshaping of the water areas in the impoundment to create habitat "shelving" for planting of
endemic marsh species to enhance wildlife use.

PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to reconfigure and repair an existing
docking facility, partially fill a canal, replace a culvert, reshape a waterfowl
impoundment pond, demolish unneeded buildings, renovate and construct buildings,
construct a trail system, install roadways and parking areas, as well as installing new
wastewater systems and force mains.
Project Setting
The site of the proposed development is located at 300 Audubon Drive, Corolla, Currituck
County (±2.25 miles north of the Dare County line), adjacent to the Currituck Sound. This
property was originally known as the Palmer Island Club and then subsequently renamed The
Pine Island Hunt Club. Approximately 30 years ago several parcels totaling ±3,000 acres were
donated to the National Audubon Society. The hunt club continued to operate until 2005 at
which time the Audubon Society took over full management.
All proposed development will take place within the confines of one large parcel that is ±354
acres in size. Within this parcel is a subdivision, known as Pine Island Estates that is also
owned by the Audubon Society. Based on aerial photography, this parcel contains±30.3 acres
of 404 wetlands, ±162.2 acres of coastal wetlands and ±161.5 acres of highground. Existing
man-made features within the highground area include several single-family dwellings, the
guide quarters, a caretaker's residence, the 1913 hunting lodge, several storage buildings and
sheds, two garages, a kennel and several gravel roads. A private asphalt roadway (Audubon
Dr.) provides access to the property from Ocean Trail (NC-12) as well as to the subdivision
(Clarion Loop).
A ±180'x95' bulkheaded waterfowl impoundment is located within an area of 404-wetlands
adjacent to the highground area. The impoundment is connected to a nearby man-made canal
via a 6" pipe. This canal is ±660'x8' and extends from the adjacent waterbody into the
highground area. The majority of the canal shoreline has been bulkheaded with an exception of
a section adjacent to Coastal Wetlands. The end of the canal is shallow (<_i'), filled with detritus
and ends .4 from a gravel road. On the north side of the gravel road is an area of 404-
wetlands that is connected to the canal via a ±25'x12" culvert. A 3' wide footbridge is located
±100' from the end of the canal.

An elevated gravel roadway extends from the highground area, passing through a large area of
coastal wetlands and over a waterway (connected via three culverts), to the shoreline area
where a boat launch and docking facility is located. This facility provides 8 wet -slips and is
comprised of:
• ±160' of bulkheaded shoreline
• a ±4,100 ft2 gravel & grass parking/staging area
• located on the west side of the parking area is a 14' wide concrete boat ramp and a
20'x4' courtesy pier
• on the north side of the parking area is a ±24'x16' storage building (labeled as boat
building one) located immediately landward of normal water level (NWL) with a 20'x14'
platform over the water
• a ±32'x25' building over the water (labeled as boat building two) with a ±47'x7' and
23'x10' L-shaped platform is located on the south side of the parking area
• a ±44'x24' open water basin surrounded by ±116' of solid breakwater, a ±5O'x2.5' L-
shaped walkway (located on the south side) and an irregularly shaped split level ±400 ft2
L-shaped walkway (located on the NW side)
• a ±65'x2' L-shaped walkway that extends to the south from the basin walkway creating
additional slip areas
With the exception of the docking facility, the shoreline of the property is miles in length, natural
and abuts coastal wetlands that are dominantly Juncus roemerianus and Spartina
cynosuroides.
The waters of the Currituck Sound in this area are classified as SC and are closed to shellfish
taking. There is ±465' of open water between the docking facility and marsh islands located to
the west of the project site. Existing water depths within the project area range from ±2' to ±3'
below NWL and the bottom substrate is made up of fine sands and silts. Widgeon grass
(Ruppia maritima) was observed growing within the project area.
Development Proposal
The applicant proposes to renovate and modify the docking facility as follows:
• Remove the existing L-shaped platform associated with boat building two and replace it
with a ± 42'x7' and 23'x10' L-shaped platform,
• Remove the ±5O'x2.5' L-shaped walkway that makes up the south side of the existing
basin.
• Remove the ±65'x2' L-shaped walkway located on the south side of the existing basin
and replace it with a ±95'x3' U-shaped walkway enlarging the open water basin.
• Remove and replace a portion of the irregularly shaped dock (located in the NW corner)
and extend it to the south with a ±23'x4' section.
• Remove the solid breakwater and construct ±234" of vinyl breakwater under the
proposed walkways. The proposed breakwater will have 1" of spacing per linear foot, will
have a ±12' gap at the entrance and will encapsulate ±2,725 ft2 of open watepECeiveD
• The existing number of slips (8) will remain the same under the proposed mooifications.

Within the existing canal, the applicant proposes to fill a ±50' section at the landward end and
replace the existing culvert with a 75'x15" culvert. The existing 3' wide footbridge will be
replaced by a 6' wide footbridge.
Work proposed within 404-wetland areas includes:
• To create a more natural impoundment, the existing bulkhead will be removed, the water
area reshaped, the shoreline area sloped and endemic wetland plant species planted.
• Two ±65'x6 elevated walkways
Proposed work within the highground areas includes:
• Demolition and removal of a propane tank, two sheds and a kennel system.
• Renovation of the 1913 Lodge, guide quarters, four storage buildings, 3 cottages, a
garage, a grease trap and the conversion of a 4-bay garage into an open air/screened
pavilion.
• Replacement of two existing grape arbors.
• New structures to be constructed include a laboratory building, a dining hall, a
workshop, pervious parking area, stormwater retention features, new wastewater
systems, an earthen berm, 6' wide walkway system comprised of elevated wooden
walkways and crushed oyster shells with three elevated viewing platforms.
• Upgrade an existing asphalt road for heavy duty fire truck access.
• Convert a section of 10' wide gravel roadway to a 20' wide asphalt roadway to
accommodate firetruck access.
• Convert a k750' section of 10' wide gravel roadway to a 20' wide heavy duty
gravel/grasspave roadway covered in soil and grass turf.
Anticipated Impacts
• The rebuilding and reconfiguring of the docking facility will result in ±87 ft2 of additional
shading in the Public Trust Area and Estuarine Waters AEC's.
• The rebuilding and reconfiguring of the docking facility will result in the cumulative shading
of ±2,461 ft2 in the Public Trust Area and Estuarine Waters AEC's. (Existing cumulative
shading = ±2,374 ft2)
• The proposed breakwater will result in ±234 ft2 of shallow bottom fill in the Public Trust Area
and Estuarine Waters AEC's.
• The proposed breakwater system will encapsulate ±2,725 ft2 of the Public Trust Area and
Estuarine Waters AEC's, a net increase of ±1,669 W. (Existing solid breakwater
encapsulates ±1,056 ft2)
• The existing slip count of 8 will not change.
• Filling in the end of the man-made canal will result in the loss of ±400 ft2 of Public Trust
Area and Estuarine Waters AEC's.
• The filling in of the canal section will result in a roadway being removed from the CAMA 30'
Buffer.

• The project as proposed will not result in any additional impervious surfaces within the
Estuarine Shoreline AEC.
• Impervious surfaces on the total parcel will be ±0.6% (±2.07 acres impervious).
• The proposed work to the impoundment will result in ±78,330 ft2 (±1.8 acres) of disturbance
within a 404-wetland area.
• The proposed walkways will result in ±780 ft2 of 404-wetland shading.
• The proposed development will result in the total land disturbance of ±264,352 ft2 (±6.07
acres).

Project Narrative

2015
i
The Pine Island Club was fast known as the Palmer Island Club, and the original structure was constructed
in 1906. The "Island" was renamed Pine Island and so changed the name ofee hunting club. The original
clubhouse was destroyed by fire in 1913, and the current structure was conceived and built in 1913 through
1914. The +/- 3,000-acre parcel remained an active hunt club until it was donated to the National Audubon
Society by Mr. Earl Slick approximately 30 years ago. The hunt club portion remained in active use until
the Audubon took over full management in 2005.
The Audubon established a Conservation Management Plan to address the myriad anticipated
environmental conditions due to the climate change. The plan includes:
• protection, restoration, and management of the Currituck Sound marshes to promote high quality
habitats for birds and other wildlife;
• maintenance of high quality water to support healthy population of submerged aquatic vegetation,
fisheries, birds, and other wildlife;
• engagement of diverse stakeholders to work towards sustainability of a healthy ecosystem in the
Currituck Sound;
• protection of important bird areas in the region; and
• development of sustainable habitats for birds and other wildlife in light of projected sea level rise.
Parcel/Project Area:
Audubon's Pine Island Preserve consists of approximately 2,733 acres of land along the Outers
Banks, as well as marsh islands in Currituck Sound and (presumably) some submerged lands.
(Acreage total as per legal descriptions compiled in Currituck County GIS). All proposed
development is located within the confines of one large parcel (383.58 acres — legal description),
as well as the entirety of the small subdivision known as "Pine Island Estates." For the purpose of
permitting and calculations, the "Project Area" will be defined as the single large parcel and small
subdivision which is impacted by proposed development. For calculation purposes, Areas as in
GIS will be used.

Pine Island Estates:
Total Project Area:
Wetland Area:
347.04 Acres (GIS)
6.93 Acres (GIS)
353.97 Acres (GIS)
Due to the small size of development compared to overall parcel/project area, wetlands have only
been field delineated/confirmed in proximity to the proposed development to ensure impacts are
clearly identified (see site plans/grading plans for field delineated wetland). For the purposes of
lot calculations/coverage calculations, etc., wetland limits have been estimated from aerial
photography. This is reasonable due to the fact that the regulated area (coverage) will be a small
fraction of what is allowed due to the massive size of the property.

The improvements requested in the application are in support of the Conservation Management Plan and to
provide new and renovated facilities to accommodate visitors and researchers on the site. Facilities
associated with the Hunt Club that are no longer necessary will be demolished and disposed. These
include:
Bulkhead Surrounding Impoundment
• Invasive Species in Maritime Forest
• Existing Propane Tank
• Two Sheds
• Existing Kennel
Many of the existing structures will be replaced or renovated to make them effective and safe for public
use. These include:
• Decks - Repaired
• Existing Bulkhead —Replaced with Vinyl Cacmo n c�
• Existing Docks - Rebuilt
Existing Bulkhead with Breakwater — Replaced with Vinyl
Existing Breakwater — Replaced with Vinyl
• 1913 Lodge (new deck and screened porch) - Raised & Renovated
• Guide Quarters - Raised & Renovated
• 4-Bay Garage — Renovated into Open Air/Screened Gathering Pavilion
• 4-Storage Buildings - Renovated
• 3 Cottages - Renovated
• Existing Garage - Renovated
• Existing Grease Trap - Renovated
• Existing Gate — Replaced
• Existing Drainfield - Removed
New structures necessary to meet current public use standards and/or environmental standards include:
Earthen Berm & Landscaping
20-Foot Wide Roadway
• Laboratory Building
• Dining Hall
• Parking
• Stormwater Retention Features
• Wastewater System
• 6-Foot Wide Walkways
• Culvert Extension*
Wastewater System & Forcemain
*The extension/replacement of the culvert is necessary to provide adequate cover over the culvert and roads
to accommodate fire and rescue vehicles.
**The future Visitor Center has been removed from the plan. The Audubon acknowledges that if the
Center is proposed, it will require modifications to the permits.
Finally, the existing impoundment will be reshaped to promote a more natural transition and purposed for
enhancing wildlife habitat. This will include removal of the existing bulkhead surrounding the
impoundment, reshaping of the water areas in the impoundment to create habitat "shelving" for planting of
endemic marsh species to enhance wildlife use.

SUBJECT: National Audubon Society (The Donal C. O'Brien Jr. Sanctuary & Audubon
Center) Major Permit Recommendations
The applicant proposes to reconfigure and repair an existing docking facility, partially fill a
canal, replace a culvert, reshape a waterfowl impoundment pond, demolish unneeded buildings,
renovate and construct buildings, construct a trail system, install roadways and parking areas, as
well as installing new wastewater systems and force mains.
The site of the proposed development is located at 300 Audubon Drive, Corolla, Currituck
County (±2.25 miles north of the Dare County line), adjacent to the Currituck Sound.
The development proposal involves the Estuarine Waters (EW), Public Trust Area (PTA) &
Estuarine Shoreline (ES) Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's).
I have reviewed the Rules of the Coastal Resources Commission (CRC) as they pertain to this
project and my findings are as follows:
15A NCAC 07H.0203 Management Obiective of the Estuarine and Ocean System
It is the objective of the Coastal Resources Commission to conserve and manage estuarine
waters, coastal wetlands, public trust areas, and estuarine and public trust shorelines, as an
interrelated group of AECs, so as to safeguard and perpetuate their biological, social, economic,
and aesthetic values and to ensure that development occurring within these AECs is compatible
with natural characteristics so as to minimize the likelihood of significant loss of private property
and public resources. Furthermore, it is the objective of the Coastal Resources Commission to
protect present common-law and statutory public rights of access to the lands and waters of the
coastal area.

Consistent: The proposed development is consistent with the intent of this rule.
07H.0206 Estuarine Waters
(c) Management Objective. To conserve and manage the important features of estuarine waters
so as to safeguard and perpetuate their biological, social, aesthetic, and economic values; to
coordinate and establish a management system capable of conserving and utilizing estuarine
waters so as to maximize their benefits to man and the estuarine and ocean system.
(d) Use Standards. Suitable land/water uses shall be those consistent with the management
objectives in this Rule. Highest priority -of use shall be allocated to the conservation of estuarine
waters and their vital components. Second priority of estuarine waters use shall be given to
those types of development activities that require water access and use which cannot function
elsewhere such as simple access channels; structures to prevent erosion; navigation channels;
boat docks, marinas, piers, wharfs, and mooring pilings. 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 described in Rule 07H.0208.
Consistent: The proposed development is consistent with the intent of this rule.
07H.0207 Public Trust Areas
(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 that 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: The proposed development is consistent with the intent of this rule.

SUBJECT: Major Permit Request by the National Audubon Society to renovate, modify
and install improvements at a manmade canal and a docking facility on the
Currituck Sound, and to renovate, modify and install highground improvements;
on the property at 300 Audubon Drive, in the community of Corolla, Currituck
County.
Date: June 2, 2015
Consistency Determination: The request is consistent with/not in conflict with the Currituck
County 2006 Core Land Use Plan (LUP) certified by the CRC
on May 18, 2007; as amended through June 24, 2009.
Overview: The 354 acre subject property has over 3 miles of shoreline along the Currituck
Sound and approximately 1,350 linear feet of shoreline along an 8 foot wide man-made canal
that connects to the sound. Based on aerial photography, the property contains 30.3 acres of
Section 404 Wetlands, 162.2 acres of Coastal Wetlands, and 161.5 acres of Highground.
Two (2) project areas are located on the site, one adjacent to the manmade canal and the
other along the Currituck Sound. The project areas are connected by an elevated gravel
roadway approximately'/ mile long.
Project Area 1: Existing site improvements consist of several single-family residential
structures, a guide quarters, a caretaker's residence, an historic hunting lodge, several
storage buildings and sheds, two (2) garages, a kennel, several gravel roads, a private
asphalt drive, on -site wastewater, and a 95 foot by 180 foot bulkheaded waterfowl
impoundment. Existing shoreline improvements consist of bulkhead (approximately 1,328
linear feet) along the manmade canal and a 3 foot wide footbridge crossing the canal. The
impoundment is connected to the canal through a 6 inch pipe. Section 404 wetlands are
connected to the canal via a 12 inch by 25 foot culvert. The gravel road ends approximately
8 feet from the end of the canal. The canal is less than 1 foot deep in the project area. A
majority of the project area is located in Floodzone AE, with areas to the north outside of thl�EECEIVED

range from 2 to 3 feet below NWL. There is approximately 465 feet of open water between
the existing docking facility and marsh islands to the west. The project area is located in
Floodzone AE.
Improvements are proposed in both project areas.
For Project Area 1, improvements to the canal, impoundment, and highground structures are
proposed. At the canal, the existing culvert and footbridge will be removed, an 8 foot by 50
foot section of canal at the northern terminus will be filled, and a 15' X 75 foot culvert and 6
foot wide footbridge will be installed. At the impoundment, the existing bulkhead will be
removed, the banks reshaped and planted with wetland species, and two (2) 6 foot wide by 65
foot long elevated walkways will be installed. In highground areas, two (2) sheds the kennel,
and the wastewater drainfield will be removed; the historic hunting lodge, guide quarters, four
(4) storage buildings, and three (3) cottages will be renovated; the garage will be converted
into an open air/screened pavilion, a laboratory building, dining hall and workshop will be
constructed; a pervious parking area, stormwater retention system, wastewater system with
forcemain, earthen berm, 6 foot wide walkway system, and three (3) elevated viewing
platforms will be installed; and roadways will be widened to 20 feet to accommodate fire truck
access.
For Project Area 2, the docking facility will be modified and renovated. Removal of "L"-shaped
platforms/walkways and the solid breakwater; installation of a 7 foot by 42 foot and 10 foot by
23 foot "L"-shaped platform, a 3 foot by 95 foot "Ll"-shaped walkway, and a 4 foot by 23 foot
dock section, and; construction of 234 feet of vinyl breakwater are proposed. The breakwater
will be located under the walkways. The breakwater will have 1 inch of spacing per linear foot
and a 12 foot gap at the facility entrance. The existing number of slips will remain.
The waters of the Currituck Sound in this area are classified as SC and are closed to shellfish
taking. SAV was observed growing in the Project Area 2. Project Area 1 is the site of an
historic hunting lodge. A review of archaeological sites was not provided.
Anticipated impacts resulting from this project are expected to include: the encapsulation of
2,725 sq. ft. of Public Trust Area/Estuarine Waters Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC);
the filling of 624 sq. ft. of Public Trust Area/Estuarine Waters AEC; the shading of 87 sq. ft. of
Public Trust Area/Estuarine Waters AEC and 780 sq. ft. of Section 404 Wetlands, and; the
disturbance of 1.80 acres of Section 404 Wetlands and 4.27 acres of Highground.

Basis for Determination:
The site is located within the "Corolla Sub -Area" and is designated as "Full Service Areas
(Areas Preferred for Community Centers)" and "Conservation Areas" on the Currituck County
Future Land Use Map (FLUM). Areas of Environmental Concern (AECs) are also designated as
"Conservation Areas" as indicated on Page 11-1.
As indicated on Page 11-10 for the Corolla Sub -Area, "(t)he policy emphasis of this plan is to
allow for predominantly medium density residential development (2 to 3 units per acre) with
minimal commercial development arranged in clusters... Development and redevelopment
should be capable of being supported by the area's infrastructure and services —particularly
drinking water, sewage treatment, road capacity, parking areas, and required fire suppression
capabilities."
As indicated on Page 11-3, "Areas designated as Full Service are those parts of the county
where a broad range of infrastructure and service investments have been provided or will be
made available by the public and/or private sectors... With respect to residential development,
base development density is contemplated to be 2 units per acre but could be increased to 3-4
units per acre through overlay zoning depending upon services available and the potential
impact on the surrounding area... With respect to nonresidential uses, it is essential that the
existing community character be preserved..."
As indicate on Page 11-1, "(t)he purpose of the Conservation class is to provide for the long-
term management and protection of significant, limited, or irreplaceable areas. Proper
management is needed to conserve the natural, cultural, recreational, scenic or biologically
productive values of these areas. The Conservation class should be applied to areas that
should not be developed at all (preserved), or if developed, done so in a very limited manner
characterized by careful planning and cautious attention to the conservation of environmental
features."

Mr. Doug Huggett
Division of Coastal Management
North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources
400 Commerce Avenue
Morehead City, North Carolina 28557-3421
Dear Mr. Huggett:
Reference the application of The National Audubon Society to reconfigure and repair
existing docking facility, construct a new breakwater partially fill a canal, replace a culvert,
reshape a waterfowl impoundment pond, demolish unneeded buildings, renovate buildings,
construct a trail system, install roadways and parking areas, as well as install wastewater system,
at 300 Audubon Drive, adjacent to the Currituck Sound, in Corolla, Currituck County, North
Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by the
application and your field investigation report.
We recommend that the following conditions be included in the State authorization:
1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
attached plans, which are a part of this permit. Any modification to these plans must be approved
by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) prior to implementation.
2. The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or
if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to remove,
relocate, or alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the
United States. No claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal,
relocation, or alteration. The permittee shall notify NOAA/NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE
Chief Source Data Unit N CS261, 1315 E West HWY- RM 7316, Silver Spring, MD 20910-
3282 at least two weeks prior to beginning work and upon completion of work.

3. Except as specified in the plans attached to this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized
land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in the construction or maintenance of this
project, in such a manner as to impair normal flows and circulation patterns within waters or
wetlands or to reduce the reach of waters or wetlands.
4. Except as authorized by this permit or any USACE approved modification to this
permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in
the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not
authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or
wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities
connected with this project.
5: Unless otherwise authorized by this permit, all fill material placed in waters or wetlands
shall be generated from an upland source and will be clean and free of any pollutants except in
trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials (including debris from land clearing
activities), or unsightly debris will not be used.
6. The authorized structure and associated activity must not interfere with the public's right
to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States. No attempt will be made by the
permittee to preveht the full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to
the authorized work for reason other than safety.
7. The permittee shall advise the Corps in writing at least two weeks prior to beginning the
work authorized by this permit and again upon completion of the work authorized by this permit.
8. The permittee shall require its contractors and/or agents to comply with the terms and
conditions of this permit in the construction and maintenance of this project, and shall provide
each of its contractors and/or agents associated with the construction or maintenance of this
project with a copy of this permit. A copy of this permit, including all conditions, shall be
available at the project site during construction and maintenance of this project.
9. The permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary to
prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the permit
area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or similar
appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of earthen fill,
and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project must remain in
full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North
Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4).
10. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a significant increase in
turbidity outside the area of construction or construction -related discharge. Increases such that
the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU's or less in all rivers not designated as trout waters by
the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM), 25 NTU's or less in all
saltwater classes and in all lakes and reservoirs, and 10 NTU's or less in trout waters, are not

considered significant.
11. Violations of these conditions or violations of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act must be reported in writing to the Wilmington District
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers within 24 hours of the permittee's discovery of the violation.

E. REVIEW PERFORMED FOR SITE EVALUATION (CHECK ALL THAT APPLIES):
❑ Office (Desk) Determination. Date:
® Field Determination. Date(s): 2/2012013
I. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the United States on the subject site, and the permit
applicant or other affected party who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an
approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site. Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this
preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in this instance and at this time.
2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, era Nationwide General Permit (N WP) or other
general permit verification requiring "pre -construction notification- (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting N WP or
other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an approved 1D for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby
made aware of the following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a preliminary ID, which
does not make an official determination ofjurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved JD
before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an approved 1D
could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that the applicant has the
right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the N WP or other general permit
authorization; (4) that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terns and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that
undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an approved JD constitutes the
applicant's acceptance of the use of the preliminary JD, but that either form of 1D will be processed as soon as is practicable;
(6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any
form of Corps permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all wetlands and other water bodies on
the site affected in any way by that activity are jurisdictional waters of the United States. and precludes any challenge to such
jurisdiction in any administrative orjudicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal
court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD. that JD will be processed as soon as
is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or
individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. and that in any administrative appeal,
jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33 C.F.R 33 L5(a)(2)). If. during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary to make
an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or to provide an official delineation ofjurisdictional waters
on the site, the Corps will provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable

Dear George:
The NC Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of the
application submitted on behalf of the National Audubon Society for State
approval for development of their property located at 300 Audubon Drive in
Corolla, Currituck County. It was received complete on May 20, 2015, and
appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline
for making a decision is August 3, 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 May 20,
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 the
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.
