Somerset Waterfront Maintenance Project
Request for a Major CAMA Permit with Maintenance 5
PROJECT NARRATIVE **
Somerset Plantation is a 65 lot subdivision on the south side of highway 24 about 3.5 miles west of the
intersection of 24 and route 70 in Morehead City. A portion of the deeded common grounds of the
plantation includes a boat ramp with boat basin and finger piers for day docking of boats. There is a
channel that runs from the boat basin and to the deep water of Bogue Sound. The east side of the ramp
area is bounded by a peninsula which is protected by seawalls. The seawall protects the area
immediately around the ramp and extends about 70 feet due south on the west side of the boat basin
and around the end of the peninsula on the west side. Some of the seawall has been replaced in the
past and the old sections have deteriorated to the point that they need to be replaced. In the area of the
boat basin along the seawall on the west side, sand has migrated into the area because of the southern
winds and is causing the basin to become unusable. The fire department pump truck hookup that exists
in the basin is almost unusable and will increase the likely hood of a fire completely burning down
homes in the subdivision.
PROPOSED REPAIR/MAINTENANCE PROJECTS
We are proposing four steps of maintenance:
1. Currently there is a channel from the existing boat ramp to the deep water of Bogue Sound. This
channel has filled in with sand that has drifted across Bogue Sound due to the south winds. We
wish to remove 3,660 cu yrds of mud by dredging it out to the original depth of four feet at low
water utilizing a 1:3ft slope around the perimeter. The dredging method we propose to use is a
bucket to barge and the dredge spoils will be trucked away by the dredger or deposited on the
peninsula that bounds the east side of the basin as noted in drawing sheet 4. If deposited on the
peninsula they will be spread out after drying and seeded with grass. The area to be dredged
starts on drawing sheet 1 at the boat ramp and is to be dredged to a depth of 4ft at NLW
(hashed area) to include the lift X 80ft area (880 sq. ft.) of coastal wetlands, as detailed on
drawing sheet 3, on the west side of the boat basin. The area of the ramp is approx. 45ft wide
out to approx. 175ft from the ramp where it widens out to approx. 70ft and then, as noted on
drawing sheet 2, continues out to a distance of 700ft from the boat ramp where the dredged
area will meet the deep water channel of Bogue Sound.
2. We wish to replace the seawall around the ramp area with a vinyl panel seawall. The existing
seawall is old and deteriorating to the point that sand and fill are leaking through and into the
basin waters. We have been patching this wall since 2002 and continue to find new holes every
year. Before the seawall completely deteriorates and falls into the water, we wish to replace it
with a new vinyl seawall installed on the water side of the existing seawall to be joined to the
existing seawall.

H+ gwwpN 1-" 4

3. We wish to install a free standing pile and vinyl panel groin that will be 15ft from our property
and the Riparian Access Line extending due south 100 feet from the south end of the west side
seawall. The groin will be on the west side of the channel and parallel to it. The northern end of
the groin will turn ninety degrees to butt up against the south end of the sea wall on the west
side of the ramp. We expect this groin will protect the ramp area from the buildup of sand into
the ramp area.
4. We wish to install a new vinyl panel seawall around the south end of the peninsula. This wall
would begin at the south end of the wall and continue south and east around the end of the
peninsula. This new seawall will be installed on the landward side of the existing old pressure
treated wall around the end of the peninsula. Due to age and environmental elements this
existing old wall is deteriorating and allowing soil to leak through into Bogue Sound.
ANTICIPATED WORK SCHEDULE:
We plan to complete numbers 1 and 2 as soon as we can arrange for contractors.
We plan to complete number 3 within two years.
We plan to begin number 4 within three years.

Somerset HOA

Dear Mr. Huggett:
Reference the application of Messrs. John Ellis and Gary Gillikin to construct a groin,
bulkhead, and perform basin and channel maintenance excavation, in navigable waters of the
United States, along the north side of Bogue Sound, at the existing Somerset Plantation
residential development manna, in Newport, Carteret County, North Carolina. The property
currently has and existing bulkhead and boat ramp. The plans propose to excavate the entrance
channel and marina basin including widening the existing basin to its 'original state' by
excavating accreted coastal wetlands and sand shoal as well as excavate the existing entrance
channel to a width of 70 feet (beginning at the eastern bulkhead and continuing west for 70 feet).
Additionally, the applicant proposes to replace portions of the existing bulkhead and install a
vinyl groin along the west side of the basin. A total of 3,660 cubic yards of material would be
removed from below normal high water, as well as 880 square feet of coastal wetlands removed
from the basin. The proposed groin is 2 feet wide by 100 feet in length. It would begin at
southernmost wing wall of the existing bulkhead, along the west side of the marina basin, and
extend south for 100 feet in order to prevent sediment transport and shoaling within the basin.
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. In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus,
the applicant must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Manatee Guidelines, and RECEIVED
strictly adhere to all requirements therein. The guidelines can be found at
http://www.fws.eov/nc-es/mammal/manatee Ruidelines.pdf. JUN 191015

-2-
2. The permittee must install and maintain, at his expense, any signal lights and signals
prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized facilities.
For further information, the permittee should contact the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office
at [phone].
3. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
submitted 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.
4. 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.
5. Approval of the structure is based on determinations that there would be no
obstruction to navigation. The structure may be damaged by wave wash from passing vessels.
Issuance of this permit should not be construed, as relieving the permittee of taking proper steps
to insure the structure and moored boats will not be damaged by wave wash.
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 prevent 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. 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.
8. 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. RECEIVED

10. All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste, the
permittee shall immediately report it to the N.C. Division of Water Quality at [phone],
Ext. 526 or [phone] and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and Hazardous
Substances Control Act will be followed.
11. 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.
12. If the permittee discovers any previously unknown historic or archeological remains
while accomplishing the authorized work, he will immediately notify the Wilmington District
Engineer who will initiate the required coordination procedures.
13. 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.

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).

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.
16. The permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of this permit or upon its
expiration before completion of the work will, without expense to the United States and in such
time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative may direct, M"VEo
the water or wetland to its pre -project condition.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY:
The project proposed is for the maintenance excavation of the existing marina basin and
channel, partially restoration of the width of the basin area through excavation of
naturalized wetlands caused by shoaling, the replacement of a bulkhead, as well as the
placement of a groin. Per the applicant, the groin would be placed a.minimum of 15' from
riparian access lines and would help protect the remaining wetlands as well as prevent
future shoaling within the basin.
9. Narrative Description
The Somerset Plantation HOA project is located on the north side of Bogue Sound and
along Somerset Way, Newport, Carteret County. The project area is found by turning right
off of HWY NC 24(approximately 10,400' or 1.97 miles east of the Gales Creek Bridge)
in Newport onto Somerset Way. Follow Somerset Way through the subdivision where the
marina will be located at the road end. The site is located along the north side of Bogue
Sound and in-between two single family residences.
There where major permits issued in 1988 and 1999 for marina development, shoreline
stabilization and maintenance excavation of the channel and basin, across Bogue Sound to
the AIWW. The original permit has been expired for years but authorized a maintenance
excavation width of 20' for the 50' wide existing channel and 40' wide for the basin area
with a final depth of 4' nlw. Regular maintenance of the entrance channel has occurred
through the years via the general permit process (last one issued in 2011 for a channel).
The alignment of the channel has always essentially been the same, and the spoil site will
be located on the HOA high ground land peninsula.
The Somerset Plantation HOA Marina property has approximately 900 feet of shoreline
and is an average elevation of 5' above NEW. The high ground area for the marina
currently has a bulkhead, boat ramp, launch pier, marina with 9 slips and a common area
for residents. It is covered with typical grasses and shrubbery. There is an 1l' x 100' fringe
of coastal wetlands within the basin, west of the proposed groin area, which consist of
Spartina patens (Salt Meadow Cordgrass) and Spartina altemiflora (Smooth Cordgrass).
The proposed development is a private/community project. The substrate within the
project location is sand. There are residential properties to the east and west of the project
area.
The Carteret County Land Use Plan classifies this property as Residential with all parts of
the AEC classified Conservation. Bogue Sound is not designated as Primary Nursery Area,
is closed to the taking of shellfish in this area and carries a water classification of
SA/HQW. Bogue Sound has a width of approximately 10,400' plus or minus within the

project area and a 70' width within the basin area. Water depths are an average of -2' nlw
in the project area. No shellfish were observed within the project area; however there are
submerged grass beds to the west of the Somerset Plantation HOA entrance channel.
10. Proiect Description:
The current proposal is to maintenance excavate the existing entrance channel and marina
basin. The applicant is proposing to partially widen the existing basin to its original state
through the excavation of accreted coastal wetlands and sand shoal as well as excavate the
existing entrance channel to a width of 70' (starting from the existing eastern bulkhead and
continuing west for 70'). The channel maintenance excavation would not extend beyond
the existing channel dimensions located to the west. They are also proposing to replace
portions of the existing bulkhead as well as place a vinyl groin along the west side of the
basin. Per the applicant, the groin placement would help prevent further shoaling as well as
protect the remaining wetlands within the basin.
The original channel width was a maximum of 50' and has been maintained at a width of
30 to 40' throughout the years; however the applicants are proposing a 70' width. The
excavation would start at the existing eastern basin bulkhead and continue west for 70' but
would not extend beyond the existing channel dimensions to the west. The channel
excavation would remain a distance of approximately 90' from any SAV habitat observed
to the west of the proposed development site.
Due to the shoaling of the existing access channel and coastal wetland accretion within the
marina basin, the applicants are proposing to maintenance excavate the existing Somerset
Plantation HOA entrance channel and marina basin to help provide safer navigation. The
excavation plans to use a bucket to barge method. A total of 3,660 cubic yards of material
would be removed below nhw as well as 880 square feet of coastal wetlands (Spartina
alterniflora) removed within the basin. The excavation dimensions within the basin area
would be 70' x 100' and would have a final depth of -4' nlw. The channel excavation as
proposed would be 70' x 600' with a final depth of -4' nlw. The connecting water depths
within this area are -4.5' nlw. The channel excavation would be a distance of 90' plus from
the existing submerged grass beds located to the west and would retain a 3:1 slope. The
spoils would be located onsite on the high ground peninsula, which is located along the
eastern side of the marina property. The spoils would be located a minimum of 30' above
normal high water and would be stabilized with approved erosion control measures.
The applicant is proposing to install a Twide x 100' long (from nhw)vinyl groin along the
west side of the marina basin to help prevent sediment transport and shoaling within the
existing basin as well as help protect some naturalized coastal wetlands within this area. It
would start at the most southern wing wall of the existing bulkhead located along the west

Somerset Plantation HOA

side of the basin and extend south for 100'. The groin would be located 15' from the
western riparian access line and would remain within the basin. It would also niot exceed a
height of 1' above NHW. There are no SAV or shellfish beds within this area. The width
of Bogue Sound is approximately 11,500' within this area with average water depths of -2'
nlw.
The final portion of the project would be replacing portions of the depilated bulkhead
within two locations. The first location is along the north east side of the existing boat
ramp/basin area. A total of 70' feet of new vinyl bulkhead would be constructed and would
not exceed a maximum of 2' beyond nhw. The final portion of new vinyl bulkhead would
be placed along the most southern portion of the high ground peninsula located to the east.
It would be installed landward of the existing riprap (above nhw) and would not exceed a
maximum length of 190'.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The maintenance excavation for the entrance channel would temporarily disturb 49,000 ft2
of shallow sandy bottom habitat and remove 3,660 cubic yards of material from the system
(which includes 880' of coastal wetlands). The increases in suspended sediment and
turbidity levels from the dredging will be temporary and should be minimal given the
bottom composition. Maintenance excavation will likely occur as needed to maintain the
operation of the channel. The proposed groin would fill 200 ftz of estuarine bottom and
would not hinder navigation due to location. The construction of the vinyl groin would
result in minor impacts due to turbidity; impacts would not expect to be significant. The
purpose of the vinyl groin is to trap long shore sediment transport that the applicant reports
is causing shoaling in the existing basin and a portion of the channel. There should be no
undue interference to navigation from the groin due to the fact that all work proposed
would remain within the manmade basin area. The groin also has the potential to protect
the remaining coastal wetlands located within the basin as well as stop accretion within the
basin which would ensure safer navigation. Future excavation of the channel and basin
area is possible.

While the marina basin itself is currently classified as Prohibited to the harvest of
shellfish, the waters surrounding the proposed dredge spoil disposal site are
currently classified as Conditionally Approved Closed. These waters can be
opened to shellfishing on a temporary basis when environmental conditions
allow.
If these waters are temporarily opened to shellfishing around the time that this
proposed dredging takes place, then the waters surrounding this location will
need to be reclosed. It is requested that our section be notified prior to any
dredging activity so that we can determine at that time if a shellfish closure is
necessary.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY:
The project proposed is for the maintenance excavation of the existing marina basin and
channel, partially restoration of the width of the basin area through excavation of
naturalized wetlands caused by shoaling, the replacement of a bulkhead, as well as the
placement of a groin. Per the applicant, the groin would be placed a minimum of 15' from
riparian access lines and would help protect the remaining wetlands as well as prevent
future shoaling within the basin.
9. Narrative Description
The Somerset Plantation HOA project is located on the north side of Bogue Sound and
along Somerset Way, Newport, Carteret County. The project area is found by turning right
off of HWY NC 24(approximately 10,400' or 1.97 miles east of the Gales Creek Bridge)
in Newport onto Somerset Way. Follow Somerset Way through the subdivision where the
marina will be located at the road end. The site is located along the north side of Bogue
Sound and in-between two single family residences.
There where major permits issued in 1988 and 1999 for marina development, shoreline
stabilization and maintenance excavation of the channel and basin, across Bogue Sound to
the AIWW. The original permit has been expired for years but authorized a maintenance
excavation width of 20' for the 50' wide existing channel and 40' wide for the basin area
with a final depth of -4' nlw. Regular maintenance of the entrance channel has occurred
through the years via the general permit process (last one issued in 2011 for a channel).
The alignment of the channel has always essentially been the same, and the spoil site will
be located on the HOA high ground land peninsula.
The Somerset Plantation HOA Marina property has approximately 900 feet of shoreline
and is an average elevation of 5' above NHW. The high ground area for the marina
currently has a bulkhead, boat ramp, launch pier, marina with 9 slips and a common area
for residents. It is covered with typical grasses and shrubbery. There is an 11' x 100' fringe

project area and a 70' width within the basin area. Water depths are an average of -2' nlw
in the project area. No shellfish were observed within the project area; however there are
submerged grass beds to the west of the Somerset Plantation HOA entrance channel.
10. Proiect Description:
ent proposal is to maintenance excavate the existing entrance channel and marina
basin. The app scant is proposing to partially widen a existing asm to rts ongin state
gh the excavation of accreted coastal wetlands and sand shoal as well as excavate the
existing entrance channel to a width of 70' (starting from the existing eastern bulkhead and
continuing west for 70'). The channel maintenance excavation would not extend beyond
the existing channel dimensions located to the west. They are also proposing to replace
portions of the existing bulkhead as well as place a vinyl groin along the west side of the
basin. Per the applicant, the groin placement would help prevent further shoaling as well as
protect the remaining wetlands within the basin.
The original channel width was a maximum of 50' and has been maintained at a width of
30 to 40' throughout the years; however the applicants are proposing a 70' width. The
excavation would start at the existing eastern basin bulkhead and continue west for 70' but
would not extend beyond the existing channel dimensions to the west. The channel
excavation would remain a distance of approximately 90' from any SAV habitat observed
to the west of the proposed development site.
Due to the shoaling of the existing access channel and coastal wetland accretion within the
marina basin, the applicants are proposing to maintenance excavate the existing Somerset
Plantation HOA entrance channel and marina basin to help provide safer navigation. The
excavation plans to use a bucket to barge method. A total of 3,660 cubic yards of material
would be removed below nhw as well as 880 square feet of coastal wetlands (Spartina
alterniflora) removed within the basin. The excavation dimensions within the basin area
would be 70' x 100' and would have a final depth of -4' nlw. The channel excavation as
proposed would be 70' x 600' with a final depth of -4' nlw. The connecting water depths
within this area are -4.5' nlw. The channel excavation would be a distance of 90' plus from
the existing submerged grass beds located to the west and would retain a 3:1 slope. The
spoils would be located onsite on the high ground peninsula, which is located along the
eastern side of the marina property. The spoils would be located a minimum of 30' above
normal high water and would be stabilized with approved erosion control measures.
The applicant is proposing to install a 2'wide x 100' long (from nhw)vinyl groin along the
wPcr ide ^f rho ham^ to help prevent sediment transport and shoa ing within the
existing basin as well as help protect some naturalized coastal wetlands within this area. It
would start at the most southern wing wall of the existing bulkhead located along the west

side of the basin and extend south for 100'. The groin would be located 15' from the
western riparian access line and would remain within the basin. It would also riot exceed a
height of 1' above NHW. There are no SAV or shellfish beds within this area. The width
of Bogue Sound is approximately 11,500' within this area with average water depths of -2'
nlw.
The final portion of the project would be replacing portions ead
within two locations. The first location is along the north east side of the existing boa
ramp/basin area. A total of 70' feet of new vinyl bulkhead would be constructed and would
not exceed a maximum of 2' beyond nhw. The final portion of new vinyl bulkhead would
be placed along the most southern portion of the high ground peninsula located to the east.
It would be installed landward of the existing riprap (above nhw) and would not exceed a
maximum length of 190'.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The maintenance excavation for the entrance channel would temporarily disturb 49,000 ftz
of shallow sandy bottom habitat and remove 3,660 cubic yards of material from the system
(which includes 880' of coastal wetlands). The increases in suspended sediment and
turbidity levels from the dredging will be temporary and should be minimal given the
bottom composition. Maintenance excavation will likely occur as needed to maintain the
operation of the channel. The proposed groin would fill 200 ftz of estuarine bottom and
would not hinder navigation due to location. The construction of the vinyl groin would
result in minor impacts due to turbidity; impacts would not expect to be significant. The
purpose of the vinyl groin is to trap long shore sediment transport that the applicant reports
is causing shoaling in the existing basin and a portion of the channel. There should be no
undue interference to navigation from the groin due to the fact that all work proposed
would remain within the manmade basin area. The groin also has the potential to protect
the remaining coastal wetlands located within the basin as well as stop accretion within the
basin which would ensure safer navigation. Future excavation of the channel and basin
area is possible.

PROJECT NARRATIVE **
Somerset Plantation is a 65 lot subdivision on the south side of highway 24 about 3.5 miles west of the
intersection of 24 and route 70 in Morehead City. A portion of the deeded common grounds of the
plantation includes a boat ramp with boat basin and finger piers for day docking of boats. There is a
channel that runs from the boat basin and to the deep water of Bogue Sound. The east side of the ramp
area is bounded by a peninsula which is protected by seawalls. The seawall protects the area
immediately around the ramp and extends about 70 feet due south on the west side of the boat basin
and around the end of the peninsula on the west side. Some of the seawall has been replaced in the
past and the old sections have deteriorated to the point that they need to be replaced. In the area of the
boat basin along the seawall on the west side, sand has migrated into the area because of the southern
winds and is causing the basin to become unusable. The fire department pump truck hookup that exists
in the basin is almost unusable and will increase the likely hood of a fire completely burning down
homes in the subdivision.

PROPOSED REPAIR/MAINTENANCE PROJECTS
We are proposing four steps of maintenance:
APR 13 2015
I• 'Vary mo 1N 1i
1. Currently there is a channel from the existing boat ramp to the deep water of Bogue Sound. This
channel has filled in with sand that has drifted across Bogue Sound due to the south winds. We
wish to remove 3,660 cu yrds of mud by dredging it out to the original depth of four feet at low
water utilizing a 1:3ft slope around the perimeter. The dredging method we propose to use is a
bucket to barge and the dredge spoils will be trucked away by the dredger or deposited on the
peninsula that bounds the east side of the basin as noted in drawing sheet 4. If deposited on the
peninsula they will be spread out after drying and seeded with grass. The area to be dredged
starts on drawing sheet 1 at the boat ramp and is to be dredged to a depth of Oft at NLW
(hashed area) to include the lift X 80ft area (880 sq. ft.) of coastal wetlands, as detailed on
drawing sheet 3, on the west side of the boat basin. The area of the ramp is approx. 45ft wide
out to approx. 175ft from the ramp where it widens out to approx. 70ft and then, as noted on
drawing sheet 2, continues out to a distance of 700ft from the boat ramp where the dredged
area will meet the deep water channel of Bogue Sound.
2. We wish to replace the seawall around the ramp area with a vinyl panel seawall. The existing
seawall is old and deteriorating to the point that sand and fill are leaking through and into the
basin waters. We have been patching this wall since 2002 and continue to find new holes every
year. Before the seawall completely deteriorates and falls into the water, we wish to replace it
with a new vinyl seawall installed on the water side of the existing seawall to be joined to the
existing seawall.

3. We wish to install a free standing pile and vinyl panel groin that will be 15ft from our property
and the Riparian Access Line extending due south 100 feet from the south end of the west side
seawall. The groin will be on the west side of the channel and parallel to it. The northern end of
the groin will turn ninety degrees to butt up against the south end of the sea wall on the west
side of the ramp. We expect this groin will protect the ramp area from the buildup of sand into
the ramp area.
4. We wish to install a new vinyl panel seawall around the south end of the peninsula. This wall
would begin at the south end of the wall and continue south and east around the end of the
peninsula. This new seawall will be installed on the landward side of the existing old pressure
treated wall around the end of the peninsula. Due to age and environmental elements this
existing old wall is deteriorating and allowing soil to leak through into Bogue Sound.
ANTICIPATED WORK SCHEDULE:
We plan to complete numbers 1 and 2 as soon as we can arrange for contractors.
We plan to complete number 3 within two years.
We plan to begin number within three years.

9. Narrative Description
The Cape Carteret Churches Project is located at 101 Anita Forte Drive (Cape Carteret
Baptist church) and 100 Yaupon Drive (Cape Carteret Presbyterian Church), along
Highway 24 in Cape Carteret.
The Cape Carteret Churches combined properties are 12.93 acres in their entirety, and are
an average of 3' to 6' above NHW. Presently there are existing churches, parking areas
and storm water ponds on the tracts. There are 404 jurisdictional wetlands located around
the pond areas but no coastal wetlands are present due to no connectivity with Deer Creek.
The undeveloped portion of the high ground areas are comprised of typical vegetation
(grass) and native trees. There are adjacent residential properties to the east and west.
The 2007 Town of Cape Carteret Land Use Plan classifies this property as Low Density
Single-family Residences with all AEC's classified Conservation. The canal adjacent to
the project area (tributary connecting to Deer Creek) is not designated as Primary Nursery
Area and is closed to the taking of shellfish. This area carries a water classification of SC
per the 10/10/14 letter by Jeff Manning, Chief Classification and Standards, NC Division
of Water Resources. Substrate in the existing storm water ponds is mostly silt.
10. Proiect Description:
There are e ;qLi pandc currently in place for stormwater control of the exis ' a tist
J�i.rtP,;�. were built prior to stormwater regulations. Due to failure
of these control measures as well as evasive species usurpation, the applicant proposes to
retrofit the upper pond into an infiltration wetland system and restore the east lower pond
into a tidal salt marsh, which per the applicant would provide a more sustainable, aesthetic
and functional stormwater system.
There are currently two stormwater ponds at the project location that were constructed
prior to stormwater regulations. The riser structure in the upper pond has failed and no
longer impounds water and has lost most of its potential storage function. The lower pond
has become inundated with invasive aquatic plants, which further compounds untreated
stormwater shedding into the adjacent water body (Deer Creek). Per the applicant's
discussion with the NC Division of Water Resources, Deer Creek is currently on the
303(d) list as impaired from bacteria and stormwater runoff. The total watershed area that
drains to this collection system is approximately 25 acres and includes both church
grounds, a bank, HWY 24 and other developments along the highway. The applicant is
proposing to retrofit the failed ponds in order to provide a more substantial, aesthetic and
functional system that would help to improve the water quality of Deer Creek. The proiect _

funds by the NC Clean Water Management Trust Fund The two churches and the Town of
Cape Carteret are project partners and conservation easements are being finalized for
protection of this area. There is no other high ground work, not necessary for the retrofit of
the ponds being proposed.
The proposal for the west upper pond would consist of converting it into an infiltration
wetland system. It would be a hybrid between a rain garden and a stormwater wetland.
This system would maintain the current pond water level but would improve storage
capacity. The construction of the pond would involve the removal of accumulated silts in
the current pond footprint, the placement of 18 inch class 2 stone, a layer of 12 inch pea
gravel and a 12 inch layer of clean sand. More native freshwater plant species would then
be planted within the main treatment area and also plantings within an upper wetland
fringe. The plantings within the main treatment area would consist of Acorus Americana,
Asclepias incarnate, Carex crinite, Carex lurida, Juncus effuses and Iris vers}color. The
plantings for the wetland fringe area would consist of Eutrochium maculatum, Helianthus
angustifolius, Hibiscus moscheutos, lobelia cardinalis, Scirpus cyperinus and
Schoenoplectus tabemaemontani. The existing riser box would be retrofitted to control
water levels and provide storage for water quality treatment.
The pro sal or the east lower pond would be restoration to a tidal salt marsh. The plan
consists of removing the exi tins riser structure as well as lowering and replacing the
existing culvert. A total of 700 square feet of fill would be placed in the culvert location.
The lowered culvert would allow tidal flux from Deer Creek and would help with
converting the lower pond to a tidal salt marsh. The evasive species would be removed and
the following coastal wetlands would be planted. The planted coastal wetlands within the
restored marsh area would consist of Spartina alterniflora and Juncus romerianus. The
upper wetland fringe would consist of Spartina patens. The final product of the lower pond
should create approximately 1.5 acres of tidal marsh and 500 feet of tidal creek.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The proposed retrofit of the upper pond would disturb approximately 26,136 ft2 of high
ground, with the lower pond restoration disturbing approximately 87,720 ft2 (includes 700
square feet for culvert). The retrofitting of the upper pond has the potential to increase
storage capacity as well as improve water quality to Deer Creek with the lower pond
restructuring (includes culvert lowering and replacement)creating 1.5 acres of tidal salt
marsh and 500 feet of tidal creek.

Stormwater Ponds Retrofit

Receiving Water: Deer Creek, SA ORW
Project Narrative
This project involves the retrofit of two failing stormwater ponds in Cape Carteret, NC. The
ponds are located on the adjacent properties of Cape Carteret Baptist and Presbyterian
churches. The churches are located on HWY 24 between Anita Forte Drive and Youpon Drive.
The upper pond (Baptist Church) flows into the lower pond (Presbyterian Church), through a
culvert under Youpon Drive and then into Deer Creek: Deer Creek is a tidal creek designated as
an Outstanding Resource Water and salt marsh vegetation is found a short distance from the
road crossing. Neither of the project ponds are permitted stormwater facilities. They were built
prior to stormwater regulations and were presumably built through a process of harvesting
dredge material and converting the area into ponds for aesthetic purposes.
The riser structure in the upper pond has failed and the area no longer impounds water. A
shallow channel has cut itself through deposited silts and the majority of the site has been
established in weeds and wetland species. Cattails and aquatic weeds are prominent in the
upper pond area, as well as some willows and Phragmites. This pond has become an eyesore to
the church and is seen as a potential hazard, particularly for children attending after -school
programs. The failed riser allows water to pass through. As a result, this pond has lost most of
the potential storage functions it once provided for stormwater from upstream development.
The lower pond has become choked with invasive aquatics. Water hyacinth has taken over a
large portion of the surface area. Other aquatic weeds have established and spread throughout
the pond, and small stands of cattails and Phragmites can also be found. The border of the
pond is well established with natives such as Juncus and sedges.
These ponds serve as a final protection area for Deer Creek. Deer Creek is currently on the NCI, 1-0,
iq
303(d) list as impaired from bacteria and stormwater runoff. A small amount of samples ta0ep, d�
during this project have backed up the presence of both fecal coliform in the ponds and also Zib FX
<'O
Deer Creek. The ponds collect untreated drainage water from the highway and treated {
stormwater from several shopping complexes across the street. The total watershed area is
between 40-50 acres, and is over 50% impervious. Approximately 25 acres is in shopping
complex use and includes Lowes Home Improvement, Walgreens, an ABC store, and the
entirety of Carteret Crossings shopping center. The stormwater from these areas is treated with
permitted facilities. Most of this drainage area is treated with underground or above -ground
infiltration devices. The remaining watershed area (25 acres) includes portions of the church
grounds, a bank, HWY 24, and a few other developments along the highway. Runoff from these
areas goes largely untreated, with only the ponds as a buffer to the headwaters of Deer Creek.

This project proposes to retrofit the failed ponds to provide a more sustainable, aesthetic, and
functional system that will help to improve the water quality of Deer Creek. It is hoped that the
improvements will lead to reduce the impacts of stormwater and bacterial counts. However,
the completed project is'not intended to meet any stormwater or other requirements for
development activity. The project is being led by the NC Coastal Federation and is supported by
direct funds and also by the NC Clean Water Management Trust Fund. The churches and the
Town of Cape Carteret are project partners and conservation easements are being finalized to
protect the work. Engineering, technical drawings and guidance are provided by Kris Bass
Engineering.
The proposed plan for the upper pond is to convert the pond into an infiltration wetland
system. This type of BMP is a hybrid between a rain garden and a stormwater wetland. This
type of device has documented benefits to improving water quality through nutrient and
bacterial reductions. This is possible because of the higher elevation of this pond and its
separation from the tidal range. The final system will closely resemble the current water level
(maintaining wetland conditions), but have an improved storage capacity. Vegetation will be
converted to a more native (freshwater) and naturally diverse community. The construction
process will involve excavation of accumulated silts in the current pond footprint and
replacement with layers of stone and planting media. The existing riser box would be
retrofitted to control water levels and to provide storage for water quality treatment. The final
surface would be planted with both native wetland and rain garden species. The water level
would be normally held just at or below the mean surface of the planting media, providing the
needed hydrology for wetland species while attempting to limit standing surface water in
between storms. The expected function will be similar to a rain garden with an internal water
storage zone, which is a widely promoted coastal BMP type.
The proposed approach for the lower pond is to restore it to a tidal salt marsh. A survey has
been completed of the pond that indicates the original surface (pond bottom) is close to marsh
elevations. The plan includes removing the existing riser structure and lowering the existing
culvert. This will allow tidal flux from Deer Creek to enter the pond area. As a part of the plan,
invasive species will be removed and some minor grading will be used to control fine sediments
and to ensure proper elevations for the restored marsh. This approach will create a salt water
flux that will help prevent the return of the invasive species that are currently so prominent in
the pond. The final product of this portion of the project will include approximately 1.5 acres of
tidal marsh and 500 feet of tidal creek. RECEIVED
Construction of the site will be completed following a designated construction sequence and APR I a 2015
erosion control plan. The project will be completed in phases, and a staged drawdown of waterlw"AM g!"
in both ponds will help manage any potential sediment transport. The erosion control plan will
include the use of a turbidity curtain to prevent excess sediment transport into Deer Creek. Silt
fencing is planned to surround a designated staging area and to prevent slope erosion towards
surface waters. Excavation activities will be completed during dry periods as much as possible.
A contractor with BMP and marsh construction experience will allow an efficient completion
timeline and will limit the exposure of disturbed areas. Depending on the time of year when

construction is completed, the entire site will be planted using a detailed planting plan. The
plan will include both seedings and plantings to achieve a balance of quick establishment and
erosion control. It is expected that a dense natural vegetative community will be established in
a 2-3 year timeframe and on -going management will ensure the site success.

success of plantings and we will plan the construction and planting to make sure we have the best chance of
-success. This may mean staged plantings of different species, some invasive management, or other measures.
I am trying to get the old delineation. We have already spoken with the Corps and met with DWR about the
permitting of this portion of the project. Both groups have already determined the appropriate permit route for
the project.
I think we are fine with everyone getting black and white copies. I am going to put our application and the plans
up on my dropbox and send it out to everyone. That way people will have a color version they can look at
digitally.
Please let me know if there are other questions. We are eager to get the clock started so we can plant this during
this year.

The project involves the retrofit of two stormwater ponds. One has a failed outlet structure and the second is covered with
invasive vegetation. The proposed project will convert the failed pond into a more functional and aesthetic stormwater
device. The pond covered with invasives is proposed to be converted into a brackish marsh. Evidence suggests this area
may have been marsh in the past. When complete, the area will more efficiently treat stormwater runoff from Highway 24

Cape Carteret, NC 28584
Dear Friends:
The Presbytery of Coastal Carolina, at Its meeting on October 12, 2D13, approved the request from Cape
Carteret Presbyterian Church to grant the North Carolina Coastal Federation a perpetual conservation
easement in return fortheir cleaning out the malfunctioning retention pond located on the church's
property, redesigning and landscaping It, and upon completion, reclassifying it as designated wetlands at
no cost to the church. As stated in the request, this should enhance the landscape of the church
property and should clean the water before it dumps Into nearby Deer Creak.
The church did not take the Chapter VIII exemption and needed the approval of Presbytery forthis
action per the Book of Order. RECEIVED
This action is subject to congregational approval also. APR 13 2015

SUBJECT: Somerset Plantation HOA
DATE: 4/16/15
Donald R. van der Vaart
Secretary
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 maintenance excavation of wetland plants and sand that has partially filled a ramp basin and
maintenance excavation of the access channel and boat basin within Bogue Sound. The applicant also
proposes a groin to be built to the west side of the ramp to protect against future sedimentation.
The area near the proposed dredge is mapped Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) habitat and SAV
beds have and do exist to the west side of the proposed dredge. In order to protect this habitat resource
and the organisms that use it a moratorium on excavation from April 1—September 30 should be
observed. Additionally no excavation of wetlands is to occur to the western side of the proposed groin.
This are of wetlands will stabilize sediment in this area without causing impairment to the use of the
ramp. Care should be taken to not exceed current western border of the access channel near the SAV
habitat area.
Contact Shane Staples at [phone] or [e-mail] with further questions or
concerns.

This letter of refinement is in reference to the March 17, 2016 request by John Ellis, for a refinement of
Major CAMA Permit No. 68-15 issued to you on June 18, 2015. The request is to add a 6' x 12' section of
riprap along the western side of the basin along where the existing bulkhead terminates to help alleviate
future erosion and wash outs. This development is hereby authorized as requested. All permit
conditions including the December 31, 2018 expiration date still apply and remain unchanged as well as
the following specific conditions:
• The 6' x 12' riprap "wing" shall be placed as shown on drawing dated 3/17/16 and shall be
landward of any coastal wetlands.
Thank you for your time and cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate
to contact me, or Heather M. Styron in the Morehead City District Office.

March 17, 2016
Please find enclosed a request from Mr. John Ellis, dated received by DCM on March 17, 2016, to refine
the existing CAMA permit. This permit, #68-15, was issued on 6/18/15 and is set to expire on 12/31/18.
The permit authorized a pier and platform.
The applicant is proposing to place a 6' x 12' riprap section along the existing bulkhead located on the
west side of the basin. The existing wall terminates and does not currently wing back which has caused
washouts and erosion. The "wing" section would connect to the western neighbors permitted riprap.
The riprap would also be landward of any coastal wetlands. If the proposed development is constructed
as shown on the drawing dated received 3/17/16, then the proposal is consistent with the specific
guidelines found in 15A NCAC 07H.0208. This district recommends the refinement be authorized as
proposed, contingent all original conditions apply.
