The applicant proposes to recover timber/logs from the bottom of the Black River in Pender County to utilize them in a specialty wood product enterprise. I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the Pender County Comprehensive Land Use Plan and offer the following comments. The general area of the project is classified as Conservation 1. Waters at the project site are classified as C; SW and are not open to the harvesting of shellfish (no resource). The area is not a Primary Nursery area (inland waters). Areas of Environmental Concern are PT. Pender County allows development in Conservation classified AECs, which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Pender County Comprehensive Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum use standards. However, none of these policies appear to be applicable to this project. This project appears to be consistent with the Pender County Comprehensive Land Use Plan Update.

Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) reviewed the permit application with regard to impacts on fish and wildlife resources. The project site is located within the Black River and Collie Creek, near Atkinson and Currie, NC. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Coastal Area Management Act (G.S. 113A-100 through 113A-128), as amended, Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act, as amended, and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.). The applicant proposes to remove submerged logs within a permitted four mile stretch of the Black River and Collie Creek. This area is broken into four zones and is described within the permit application. A pre -application meeting was conducted on August 5, 2015 where comments from the NCWRC were stated. The Black River at this location is classified C Sw and ORW by the Environmental Management Commission and Collie Creek is classified C Sw. Both waters are designated anadromous fish spawning areas (AFSA) by the NCWRC. To protect wildlife resources present within the Black River and Collie Creek, the NCWRC requests the following be included as guidance and permit conditions. These statements were also relayed in the August 5, 2015 pre -application meeting: — To minimize impacts to anadromous fish, log removal should not be conducted from February 15 to June 30 of any year.

Logs in water depths 6' and less should remain in place. These logs provide important structure and habitat opportunities for anadromous fish species. Logs in water depths greater than 6' should be able to be removed with minimal impacts to aquatic resources. — Removal of logs should not be done to impede navigation on the Black River or its tributaries. Appropriate navigation aids (flagging, buoys, etc.) are recommended for the safety of the operation and the general public. — Public access facilities should not be used for the retrieval / staging of log salvage operations.

The applicant proposes to remove submerged timber within the Black River and Collie Creek in Pender County. Waters are classified as Inland Primary Nursery Area (IPNA), Anadromous Fish Spawning Area (AFSA), Secondary Recreation (C), and Swamp Waters (SW). I echo the concerns from Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC). IPNA functions in much the same way as Primary Nursery Area does for coastal species, and is many times an extension of the NC DMF PNA designation. Anadromous fish spawning areas are those areas where evidence of spawning of anadromous fish has been documented by direct observation of spawning, capture of running ripe females, or indication of eggs or early larvae. Anadromous species within the Cape Fear River include American and hickory shad, striped bass, river herring, American eel and both Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon. Currently DCM recommends an AFSA moratorium on in water work, to include dredging, from 1 February to 30 June. This moratorium reduces the negative effects on critical fish life history activities, to include spawning migrations and nursery functions. Logs in six feet of water and shallower should be left in place, these logs provide important habitat for anadromous fish. Those logs in water greater than six feet could be removed with less impacts to fisheries resources. The removal of logs should not impede navigation of the water body and appropriate navigational aids are recommended during removal operations. In addition public access facilities should not be impeded during removal or staging of salvaged logs. Removal of salvaged logs should not impact the banks of the water body or disturb the stability of the bank as logs are removed from the water, body.

Woodcock W o to CD �C o N o2 J Co LL U Boat River Logs TIT t ,Bottom o: Proiect Narrative I Steven R Woodcock am applying for a State Permit to pull timber/logs that have spent the last 100 or so years lying on the bottom of Black River. I have dedicated hours of my time researching libraries locating old mills as well as using side scan sonar technology to locate the logs. The logs will be recovered by using a 26 foot pontoon boat equipped with two winches. One winch in the front and one in the rear of the vessel. After locating the log with the sonar, a diver employed by myself will dive down and hook a grapple hook with cable attached to each end of the log. Using both winches the log will be hoisted up under the boat in between the pontoons and securely tied off to make its way back to the boat ramp. We will then carry the log back to the boat ramp and off load it onto a specially designed log trailer which will be hauled straight away to my sawmill located at 109 Cherry Wood Lane Currie NC, 28435. This keeps unnecessary movement of the timber and cuts down damage to boat ramp and surrounding river landing. We use no high tech equipment, no dredging of any kind. Simply man knowledge and winch power. Each log will be logged in a log book; this includes log species, diameter and length. Each logging site is located in Black River, which is located in Pender County. I am currently working with Mr. Henry at the NC Department of Cultural resources and have been approved for a 4 mile stretch of the Black River. I have attached copies of the approved logging sites. I have written consent to use a family owned boat access which is located within one of my logging sites. I Steven R Woodcock agree to uphold all rules guidelines set in place by all corresponding officials. I would like to start this project as soon as possible.

Specialty River Woods Page 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project sites are divided up into four zones along a 4 mile stretch of the Black River and a 1 mile stretch of Collie Creek adjacent to the towns of Atkinson and Curve in Pender County. Zone 1 is located approximately 1 mile west of Point Caswell Road on the Black River, Zones 2/3 are located approximately two miles south of Hwy 210 on the Black River, Zone 4A is located south of Moores Creek on the Black River and Zone 4B is an approximately 1 mile stretch of Collie Creek to the west of the Black River. (See Sheets labelled 1-2 for all Zones). The sites are associated with historic, discontinued sawmill locations that were located on these river systems. The waters of the Black River in Zones, 1-3 and 4A are classified as C; SW and ORW and the waters of Collie Creek within zone 4B are classified as C; Sw, by the NC Division of Water Resources. There are no shellfish resources in the project area. All of the project sites within the Black River and Collie Creek are designated as inland waters and are under the jurisdiction of the Wildlife Resources Commission. PROPOSED PROJECT The applicant proposes to recover the sunken logs that are situated above or slightly imbedded within the bottom substrate of the Black River, including Collie Creek in Pender County. The application states that side scan sonar technology was utilized to locate the logs and the logs would be removed by winches and grapple hooks attached to a pontoon boat. The applicant proposes to offload the recovered logs at property owned by Mr. James Croom located at 445 Caldonia Creek Road in Atkinson, NC. The applicant has submitted an approval letter from the owner of this site. The application states that the recovered logs would be transported to the applicant's processing facility located at 109 Cherry Wood Lane Currie, NC 28435 (See narrative dated June 30, 2015). According to the applicant the NC Department of Cultural Resources has approved logging recovery within the 4 mile stretch of the Black River for this project. ANTICIPATED 1MPACTS The proposal in this action has the possibility of negative impacts through the elimination of bottom habitat as well as the generation of turbidities and the release of sediment into the water column. Due to the use of cables attached to grapple hooks no excavation of bottom substrate is anticipated. Our experience with other activities of this nature and magnitude indicate that any disturbance would have short-term duration and would cause limited localized disruptions.

RECENED SEP 112015 w►"014 kv;0 A M NCDEE R North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Pat McCrory Donald R. van der Vaart Governor Secretary September 3, 2015 Specialty River Woods C/o Mr. Steven Woodcock Dear Mr. Woodcock: The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges that on August 24, 2015, we received your completed application (with exception of the signed certified mail receipts), whereby you are requesting State approval for the recovery of timbedlogs within the Black River in Pender County. The projected deadline for making a decision on your permit application is November 8, 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 August 24, 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 your property where it can be observed from a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-way fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application. An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.

Therefore, it is necessary that the standard review time be extended. An additional 75 days is provided by G.S. 113A-122(c) which would make January 21, 2016, the new deadline for reaching a decision on your request. However, we expect to take action prior to that time and will do so as soon as possible.
