FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
Beaufort Village Marina Yacht Club
Carteret County
The following is a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the proposed Beaufort
Village Marina Yacht Club project in Carteret County. The proposed project, as outlined in the
Environmental Assessment, involves the addition to 10 new slips at the existing 8-slip facility,
resulting in a total of 18 slips.
This EA/FONSI are prerequisites for the processing of a Coastal Area Management Act
by the Division of Coastal Management.
It is concluded that the proposed project will not result in significant impacts to the
environment provided that it can be permitted and subsequently developed consistent with the
State guidelines in the Rules of the Coastal Resources Commission and the avoidance/mitigation
measures contained in the EA. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will not be prepared
for this project.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
BEAUFORT MARINA VILLAGE YACHT CLUB
BEAUFORT CHANNEL
CARTERET COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
NOVEMBER 2006
Proposed Project Description
The 0.5-acre subject property is located along Beaufort Channel near the
Newport River Estuary and within the marine business district of Carteret
County, North Carolina. The property is an upland peninsula situated off
Piver's Island Road (surrounded by what is locally known as "Knasty
Harbor"). Two dock systems are currently located within the property's
riparian corridor: the ten -slip Piver's Island Marina and the nine -slip
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club. The property holds riparian rights to
both dock systems, however, the Piver's Island Marina dock existed
before the current owner purchased the property and is under long-term
lease by others. The Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club dock was
constructed by, and slips are leased and maintained by, the current
owner/applicant (the Hoells). The property is bulkheaded and had been
previously developed as a gravel parking lot which serves both docking
facilities.
The subject of this EA is the proposed expansion of the Beaufort Marina
Village dock system. No changes are proposed to the Piver's Island
Marina dock. Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc. proposes to
remove one of the existing slips and add ten (10) slips, for a future total of
eighteen (18) permanent slips. The existing facility currently consists of
an approximately 160' fixed wooden dock and five fixed fingers. Eight of
the existing boat slips are approximately 45' in length. There is an
additional 60' floating dock extending from the easternmost edge of the
fixed dock that offers additional tie-up space for vessels larger than 45'
(the ninth slip). An elevated, fixed wooden pier of approximately 40' in
length spans a narrow fringe of coastal marsh along the northern side of
the tract and provides access to the dock.
The proposed expansion includes the addition of a 154 ft x 7 ft floating
dock and four 40 ft x 5 ft floating finger piers. Vessels will be double
loaded between fingers. Of the ten additional slips, one will be 20 ft x 40
ft, seven will be 19 ft x 65 ft, and one will be 28 ft x 65 ft. There will be one
49 ft side -to slip along the back side of the proposed docking system,
parallel to the concrete bulkhead.
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
The marina will feature permanent dockage for transient vessels and
recreational fishing vessels up to 65 ft in length. All boat slips will be sold
upon completion and the marina will be maintained by the Beaufort Marina
Village Yacht Club Dock Owner's Association. When the Beaufort Marina
Village dock is transferred, the Piver's Island Marina Club and associated
riparian rights will be permanently transferred to the current users (now
under long-term lease). With the proposed Beaufort Marina Village
expansion, the number of slips on the overall property would total twenty-
eight (eighteen at the Beaufort Marina Village dock and ten at the Piver's
Island dock).
The proposed project involves water —dependent structures for the
Beaufort Marina dock only. All upland development, including parking, is
in place. There will be no additional upland development.
II. Purpose and Need for Proposed Project
This Environmental Assessment (EA) is to provide the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and
associated agencies with a decision making tool to assist in determining if
the proposed marina is of sufficient impact to the environment as to
require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement. If an EIS
is not warranted, a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) will be issued
prior to the approval of a CAMA Major Development Permit. It should be
noted that a FONSI does not assure the issuance of a CAMA Major
Permit.
The Beaufort area attracts individuals who seek to enjoy the scenic and
recreational resources of Bogue Sound, the Atlantic Ocean as well as
other neighboring waterways. Commercial and recreational saltwater
fishing, marine trades and marine research are important contributors to
the local economy. The proposed project will help facilitate the demand
for increased water access and promote recreational fishing and boating
opportunities in the Beaufort vicinity.
III. Alternatives Analysis
A. No -Build Alternative
The No -Build Alternative would leave the Beaufort Marina Village
dock system in its present condition. There are currently eight (8)
fixed slips providing docking abilities to vessels up to 40 ft. Due to
the close proximity of a number of recreational water bodies,
recreational and transient vessels over 40 ft in length are popular
and common in this vicinity of coastal North Carolina. The no -build
alternative would not provide these additional boating and docking
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
opportunities. This alternative would also reduce the opportunity for
a reasonable return on investment for the developer.
B. Construction of an Upland Marina Basin
Due to space constraints there are no identifiable areas for upland
marina development. Uplands existing on the property are
currently being used to provide parking facilities for dock users.
Remaining undeveloped areas have a thick fringe of coastal marsh
vegetation. Development within these areas would carry an
unnecessary environmental burden and would encroach upon
county mandated parking facilities and the state maintained
roadway, Pivers Island Road.
C. Applicant's Preferred Alternative
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc. (Beaufort Marina Village)
proposes to expand the existing dock system with the addition of
ten boat slips. There are nine existing slips in the Beaufort Marina.
One slip will be removed and ten will be added, for a total of 18,
slips after new construction is complete. Vessels will be double
loaded between fingers. Pilings will anchor the floating dock
system and serve to separate individual slips.
The existing slips are 45 ft in length. In order to facilitate the
improvements to the marina, a 60 ft floating dock and associated
pilings that currently extendsfrom the waterward edge of the
existing fixed dock will be removed.
The proposed expansion includes the addition of one 154 ft x 7 ft
floating t-dock and four 40 ft x 5 ft floating finger docks, anchored
by pilings. Vessels will be double loaded between fingers. The
proposed expansion will result in an additional ten (10) slips. There
will be one new 20 ft x 40 ft slip added to the end of the existing
dock. The proposed expansion will also result in seven 19 ft x 65 ft
slips and one 28 ft x 65 ft slip along the waterward side of the
floating dock. There will be one additional 49 ft tie-up along the
back side of the proposed docking system, parallel to the concrete
bulkhead.
Initial excavation for the existing docking facility was permitted
through CAMA (Permit No. 15-94) to obtain a minimum of -6 ft
NLW. Routine maintenance dredging to obtain a minimum of -5 ft
NLW in the area of both the existing dock and the proposed dock
has also been permitted for this site. There is no new excavation
proposed for the current marina expansion (see enclosed permits).
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
The marina will feature permanent dockage for transient vessels
and recreational fishing vessels up to 65 ft in length. All boat slips
will be sold upon completion and the marina will be maintained by
the Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club Dock Owner's Association
(see enclosed Covenants).
Marina policy will be to allow no overboard discharge of waste,
including treated or untreated sewage (see enclosed covenants,
pg. 6). The marina will feature a portable waste pumpout system
on the floating dock to service vessel holding tanks. The pumpout
system will be easily accessible and in a convenient location for
boaters. It will be the responsibility of the Dock Owner's
Association to hire a contractor to routinely remove wastes from the
pumpout system.
IV. Existing Environmental Conditions
A. Topography
The project site is situated off of US 70 along Piver's Island Road in
the Town of Beaufort, Cartert County, NC. Piver's Island Road
extends south of the property, crossing Beaufort Channel onto
Piver's Island. Piver's Island currently houses the Duke University
Marine Laboratory and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Association (NOAA) Beaufort Laboratory.
The subject tract contains 0.502-acre above the mean water level
as shown on a 2006 survey by Powell Surveying Company, PA of
Beaufort, NC. The upland elevation, including the existing parking
lot is +5 ft mean sea level (MSL) according to USGS topographic
maps. Water depths within the immediate vicinity of the proposed
project range from -4 ft NLW to -9 ft NLW.
There is a fringing salt marsh situated on the northwestern side of
the property which adjoins the property boundary to the north.
Dominant species identified by scientists at Land Management
Group, Inc. include, Spartina altemiflora, Borrichia frutescens,
Limonium sp., Spartina patens and Salicornia virginica.
On -site uplands are largely impervious and include a parking facility
that is composed of large gravel deposits and packed dirt. The
current owner has reclaimed approximately 3,150 square feet of
green space within the 30ft NC CAMA Coastal Shoreline Buffer.
This reclaimed space is situated along the eastern bulkheaded
edge and had previously been part of the parking facility. The
remaining 18,716 square feet of upland is the existing parking lot,
making 86% of the site existing impervious cover.
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
B. Soil
According to the soil survey of Carteret County, NC, soils on this
tract are classified as Newhan fine sand (Nd). This soil type is
common in areas of dredge spoil deposits on islands, marshes and
low marine terraces during water channel construction and
maintenance (USDA 1987).
C. Land Use
The proposed property is outside of the land use jurisdiction of the
Town of Beaufort. The property is therefore subject to the land use
plan set forth by Carteret County, NC. The land use designation in
the 2005 update appears to be residential, although it is noted that
the property is located in a very small area of county jurisdiction
between Morehead City and the Town of Beaufort.
The property is within a marine business (B-2) zoning designation.
Surrounding commercial properties in the immediate vicinity include
Smith's Railway, which is an active boat yard, and several seafood
and commercial fishing businesses. There are also several
residential properties to the north of the proposed project.
Pivers Island, directly to the south of the proposed property, is
being utilized by NOAA and Duke University for marine research
facilities.
The original docking facility and excavation was authorized through
earlier CAMA permits (see enclosed permits). There will be no
additional impervious surface coverage within the NC DCM Area of
Environmental Concern. The existing gravel parking area contains
enough area around its perimeter for an excess of thirty 9' x 18'
parking spaces. This current parking area will provide at least one
parking space for every slip, current and proposed. No increase in
parking is needed.
D. Wetlands
As previously indicated, a large portion of the perimeter of the tract
has been reinforced with a concrete bulkhead. There is a fringing
wetland of semi -diurnal salt marsh located around the northern
edge of the property, especially northwest of the existing docking
facility.
Species indentified in the low to mid marsh include, smooth
cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), sea oxeye (Borrichia frutescens),
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
and sea lavender (Limonium sp.). Mid to high marsh species
include, salt meadow cordgrass, also known as salt meadow hay,
(Spartina patens) and glasswort (Salicomia virginica).
The proposed marina expansion will be located in the open water to
the east of the bulkheaded peninsula. No construction or
development will occur within the on -site salt marsh community.
E. Prime or Unique Agricultural Lands
No agricultural land exists within the boundaries of the project site.
F. Public Lands and Scenic, Recreational and State Natural Areas
The waters of Beaufort Channel and the Newport River Estuary are
designated as public trust waters by the State of North Carolina.
Submerged lands at the project site are also owned by the State of
North Carolina.
This area of coastal North Carolina offers excellent scenic and
recreational opportunities for the public. Popular recreational
activities in this area include fishing, crabbing, boating and sailing,
canoeing and wildlife observation.
G. Areas of Archaeological or Historical Value
The subject property is a small peninsula of land thought to have
been partially, if not completely, created from disposal of dredge
spoil. There are no structures on the property and no known
previously existing structures.
Several structures located in the Town of Beaufort, NC, have been
identified by the National Register of Historic Places. Several
eighteenth and nineteenth century private homes (including the
Gibbs House and the Henry Jacob House), the Old Burying
Ground, and a historic cemetery dating back to the Civil War are
located in Beaufort. However, none of these listed properties are
near the subject property which is outside the town's limits.
H. Air Quality
The Washington Regional Office of the NC DENR has jurisdiction
over the air quality in this region. It has been determined that the
ambient air quality for Carteret County is in compliance with all
National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
Noise Levels
The project site is in the vicinity of other commercial properties and
county roadways. Ambient noise levels adjacent to the project site
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
are relatively low and result from local vehicular traffic and boat
traffic.
Water Resources
Surface water
Waters in the vicinity of the property are classified as SA, HQW by
the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
(EMC). SA waters are used for shellfishing and marketing
purposes, primary recreation, including swimming, secondary
recreation, such as boating and fishing, aquatic life propagation and
survival. All waters classified SA also have a HQW supplemental
classification that is intended to protect waters with higher water
quality than state standards. The Newport River Estuary
separates Bogue Sound from Back Sound and discharges into the
Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway through Beaufort Inlet. The project
site is located in the White Oak River Subbasin 03-05-03.
Water depths within the existing docking facility range from -4 ft
NLW to -6 feet NLW. Water depths adjacent to the concrete
bulkhead on the eastern side of the property and within the footprint
of the proposed expansion area range from -4 ft NLW to -9 ft NLW.
Minimum water depths in Beaufort Channel are -8 ft NLW.
Water levels at the project site are subject to wind tides and lunar
tides. The lunar tidal range in the vicinity of Beaufort Channel is
roughly 3.1 feet in amplitude (NOAA). Excessive rainfall during
storm events such as northeasters and hurricanes can also
generate significant changes in water levels and flow.
Groundwater
Groundwater is plentiful throughout the Craven County survey area
(USDA 1987). During winter and early spring, groundwater is near
the surface in most locations. The surficial aquifer reaches to a
maximum of around 75 ft. The main source of water supply in
Carteret County is the underlying limestone of the Yorktown or
Castle Hayne Formations (USDA 1987).
K. Forest Resources
No forest resources are located on the property.
L. Shellfish or Fish and Their Habitats
Shellfish
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Health Shellfish
Sanitation Branch evaluates shellfishing resources in this vicinity.
Waters in the immediate vicinity are currently closed to shellfishing.
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
The applicant has mapped the location of an oyster bed which
exists under the fixed access pier to the Piver's Island dock system,
on the southern edge of the property. There are no shellfish beds
within the footprint of the existing docking facility or within the
proposed marina expansion.
Fisheries
The location for the proposed project is not within a Primary
Nursery Area (PNA). No submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) has
been observed in the proposed project area. Given that existing
depths are greater than -4' NLW over much of the project area and
maintenance dredging has occurred, the area is not likely to
provide suitable SAV habitat.
Carteret County has extensive acreage of estuarine waters and it's
proximity to the Atlantic Ocean provides access for both
commercial fishing and sport fishing. NC Division of Marine
Fisheries has provided a list of fish species common in the Newport
River Estuary, salt marshes and eel grass beds in the Beaufort
vicinity.
Fish species identified in the Newport River Estuary include,
smooth dogfish (Mustelus canis), clearnose skate (Raja eglanteria),
southern stingray (Dasyatis americana), American eel (Anguilla
rostrata), conger eel (Conger oceanicus), speckled worm eel
(Myrophis punctatus), shrimp eel (Ophichthus gomesi), Atlantic
menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus), bay anchovy (Anchoa mitchilli),
striped anchovy (Anchoa hepsetus), oyster toadfish (Opsanus tau),
halfbeak (Hyporhamphus unifasciatus), sheepshead minnow
(Cyprinodon variegates), mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus),
striped killifish (Fundulus majalis), rough silverside (Membras
martinica), Atlantic silverside (Menidia menidia), bluefish
(Pomatomus saltatrix), lookdown (Selene vomer), silver jenny
(Eucinostomus gula), pigfish (Orthopristis chrysoptera), pinfish
(Lagodon rhomboides), silver perch (Bairdiella chrysoura), weakfish
(Cynoscion regalis), spot (Leiostomus xanthurus), southern kingfish
(Menticirrhus americanus), Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias
undulatus), striped mullet (Mugil cephalus), white mullet (Mugil
curema), sharptail goby (Gobionellus hastatus), seaboard goby
(Gobiosoma ginsburgi), harvestfish (Peprilus alepidotus), butterfish
(Peprilus triacanthus), northern searobin (Prionotus carolinus),
bighead searobin (Prionotus tribulus), spotted whiff (Citharichthys
macrops), fringed flounder (Etropus crossotus), summer flounder
(Paralichthys dentatus), windowpane (Scopthalmus aquosus),
hogchoker (Trinectes maculates), and blackcheek tonguefish
(Symphurus plagiusa).
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
Salt marshes in the Beaufort vicinity support a number of fish
species including, American eel (Anguilla rostrata), speckled worm
eel (Myrophis punctatus), sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon
variegates), mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus), striped killifish
(Fundulus majalis), tidewater silverside (Minidia beryllina), pinfish
(Lagodon rhomboides), spot (Leiostomus xanthurus), Atlantic
croaker (Micropogonias undulates), striped mullet (Mugil cephalus),
hogchoker (Trinectes maculatus).
Fish species common in the eel grass beds in the Beaufort vicinity
include bay anchovy (Anchoa mitchilli), striped anchovy (Anchoa
hepsetus), oyster toadfish (Opsanus tau), rough silverside
(Membras martinica), dusky pipefish (Syngnathus floridae),
northern pipefish (Syngnathus fuscus), and planehead filefish
(Monacanthus hispidus).
Benthos
Benthic organisms provide an important link between primary
production and consumers in estuarine ecosystems. Bottom
dwelling species are limited in mobility and overall abundance and
distribution is dependent on a number of physiochemical
parameters including sediment type and percent organic matter,
tidal dynamics, and water column water quality. Neither NC DMF
or local NOAA staff sample bethos in this area. A general
knowledge of the area indicates bottom sediments are generally
sandy but are a soft muck in dredged areas. Since the project area
has been routinely dredged, and current is very strong through the
Beaufort Channel, the project area is not thought to be productive
benthic habitat.
M. Wildlife and Natural Vegetation
Wildlife in Carteret County varies in diversity according to soil type
and the resultant vegetative community. Documented mammals
include squirrel, rabbit, fox, raccoon, opossum, mink, muskrat,
otter, and deer. Common birds include morning dove, and many
species of songbirds. Due to large acreages of marsh and water
habitats, many species of waterfowl are present in Carteret County
(USDA 1987). The location of the proposed project is in a marine
business district and is in close proximity to a major highway.
Therefore, it is likely that wildlife representative of an urban
landscape would be more commonly encountered.
According to the Soil Survey of Carteret County, NC, most areas of
Newhan soil are in various stages of vegetative succession,
depending on the age of the deposit as well as exposure to salt
Environmental Assessment
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
spray (USDA 1987). Older deposits directly exposed to salt spray
include marshhay cordgrass (Spartina patens), seacoast bluestem
(Schizachyrium scoparium), sea -oats (Uniola paniculata), bitter
panicum (Panicum amarum), largeleaf pennywort (Hydrocotyle
bonariensis), and seaside goldenrod (Solidago sempervirens).
Common plants in less exposed areas include wax myrtle (Myrica
cerfera), live oak (Quercus virginiana), yaupon holly (Ilex
vomitoria), eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana), bayberry
(Myrica sp.), peppervine (Ampelopsis arborea), Virginia creeper
(Parthenocissus quinquefolia), eastern baccharis (Baccharis
halimifolia), and grape (Vitis sp).
The project site has been historically developed and most of the
upland topography is being utilized for parking facilities. The
remaining upland vegetation is confined to the shoulder of Piver's
Island Road and the edge of the existing parking lot. Primary
upland species identified by scientists at Land Mangement Group,
Inc. include mostly transitional shrubs, eastern redcedar (Juniperus
virginiana), eastern baccharis, (Baccharis halimifolia) and wax
myrtle (Myrica cerifera).
The US Fish and Wildlife Service provided a list of threatened and
endangered animal and plant species that could be present in
Carteret County (Table 1). According to NC Natural Heritage
Program, there have been two rare species within a 0.5 mile radius
of the project site. An Eastern painted bunting (Passerina ciris
ciris) was identified in 1994. The eastern painting bunting is listed
as a federal species of concern by the US Fish and Wildlife
Service. The NC Natural Heritage Program recognizes the eastern
painted bunting as a significantly rare species.
Coralbean (Erythrina herbacea) has also been identified within a
0.5 mile radius of the project site, although this plant species was
last documented in 1950 and is not recognized as a species of
concern by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Coralbean is
recognized as a significantly rare species in the State of North
Carolina.
It should be noted, however, that neither of the aforementioned
species were documented on the 0.5 acre project site.
V. Predicted Environmental Effects
A. Topography
The proposed expansion will be located entirely over open water no
alterations of upland elevations are expected. All upland
Environmental Assessment 10
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
development, including parking was previously constructed. No
dredging in public trust waters is currently requested. There will be
no anticipated long term impacts to topography.
B. Soil
As previously discussed, no upland development is proposed as
part of the marina expansion. No significant impacts to soils are
anticipated.
C. Land Use
The existing docking facility is within a B-2 zoning designation. The
B-2 zoning designation is recognized by Carteret County, NC, as a
marine business district, and the proposed project will conform to
the intended land usage for the area. No special use or conditional
use permit is required for the expansion. The project is not
expected to negatively impact local land use.
D. Wetlands
Existing wetland is intertidal marsh confined to the northwestern
perimeter of the property. The proposed expansion will be located
along the eastern edge of the property which is currently
bulkheaded. No new dredging is requested near the marsh fringe
or anywhere within the project area. It is not anticipated that there
will be significant impacts to existing wetlands.
E. Prime or Unique Agricultural Lands
N/A
F. Public Lands and Scenic, Recreational and State Natural Areas
The proposed project will further enhance the scenic and
recreational appreciation of the area by providing permanent
docking facilities to recreational and transient vessels. No negative
impacts to public lands and scenic, recreational, and state natural
areas are anticipated.
G. Areas of Archaeological or Historical Value
The NC State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) was contacted
regarding any known historic or archaeological artifacts that might
be affected by the requested work. SHPO responded in a
11/16/2006 letter stating there are no known archaeological
artifacts on the site and a low probability that any such artifacts
exist on the site (see enclosed letter).
SHPO also stated they will further review any potential impact to
the Beaufort historic district, to be completed during State
Clearinghouse review of this document. The afore -mentioned
Environmental Assessment 11
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
structures including, the Gibbs House, the Henry Jacobs House
and the Old Burying Ground are not visible from the proposed
project site. The proposed project should be outside the view -
corridor of downtown Beaufort. The project does not propose to
create any structures or buildings, therefore, eliminating any height -
related concerns. There are no proposed changes to the existing
upland area, which is currently utilized for parking only. The
addition of ten wet slips, in an area where 18 slips already exist,
should not be significantly visible. It is not anticipated that there will
be significant visual impacts to Beaufort's historical resources.
H. Air quality
The marina construction work is expected to temporarily increase
the level of exhaust emissions due to increased on -site construction
equipment. Daily operations at the completed marina would
approximate those of other similar facilities and are not anticipated
to significantly impact air quality. Impacts to air quality will be
minimal and temporary.
Noise Levels
Increased noise levels resulting from on -site construction
equipment are expected, but will be temporary. The final project is
not expected to significantly increase noise levels above ambient
conditions. It is noted that the dock association covenants require
the quiet use of the docking facility.
J. Water resources
Surface water
Although the waters of Bogue Sound are classified as SA/HQW,
this property is located on the eastern edge of this classification
limit and within an existing industrial use. The addition of ten boat
slips in this area is not expected to have a significantly adverse
impact on water quality. The marina will have and will enforce a
"closed head" policy.
Piling installation may result in localized increased turbidity and
suspended sediment concentrations. However, increased turbidity
and suspended sediment should be short-lived due to settling and
dilution. In addition, construction of a floating dock system will allow
the free movement of water without obstruction through the marina
area. It is not anticipated that the proposed project will result in
impacts to surface water quality.
The proposed project is not anticipated to significantly impact
surface water resources.
Environmental Assessment 12
Beaufort Manna Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
Groundwater
Since the project will not offer facilities for owners, contaminated
groundwater originating off -site will not hinder development plans.
Impacts to the groundwater on -site by the proposed development
are not anticipated.
K. Forest Resources
N/A
L. Shellfish or Fish and Their Habitats
Shellfish
Waters within the project area are closed to shellfishing. The one
known oyster bed on the southern edge of the property (under the
pier to the Piver's Island Marina dock) will not be impacted. No
significant impacts to shellfish are expected.
Fisheries
Waters in the immediate vicinity of the project site are not
designated as Primary Nursery Area (PNA). In addition, this area
has been historically utilized as a marine business. The initial
excavation as well as routine maintenance dredging has occurred
on the property since 1994 (CAMA Permit No. 15-94).
The addition of ten slips will slightly increase boating activities in
the immediate vicinity and has the potential to impact wildlife.
However, free-swimming animals including fish, marine mammals,
sea turtles and cephalopod mollusks are capable of controlling their
location through the water column. The new marina will utilize
floating docks to maintain water movement patterns and reduce
potential negative effects to fisheries resources. Therefore, it is
likely that impacts to these species will be temporary and minimal.
It is not anticipated that long term impacts will result from the
proposed project.
Benthos
Any benthic community that might be present will be subject to
direct impacts during piling removal and installation. However,
impacts to the benthic community represent a temporary resource
loss as the area will be reestablished when piling installation and
removal is complete. As previously mentioned, existing site
conditions such as the routine maintenance dredging and the high
velocity currents do not indicate a suitable habitat for a productive
benthic community.
Environmental Assessment 13
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
There are no significant long term impacts to the benthic
community anticipated as a result of the proposed project.
M. Wildlife and Natural Vegetation
The presence of any plant or animal species is determined by the
availability and abundance of suitable habitat. The uplands on the
proposed site are largely utilized for marina parking. The only
suitable habitat for wildlife and natural vegetation is likely isolated to
the northern perimeter of the property and adjacent waters.
The North Carolina Natural Heritage program has provided a
description of suitable habitat for all rare animal and plant species
in North Carolina (2001, 2002). All species identified by the US
Fish and Wildlife Service as threatened or endangered in Carteret
County were further researched for suitable on -site habitat. Giver
the small acreage of the site, the amount of impervious surface
coverage, the narrow marsh fringe and the designation within an
active marine business district, the majority of species listed as
threatened or endangered would not find suitable on -site habitat.
There is the potential for impacts to habitat for several identified
species. The northern diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin
terrapin) is found in salt or brackish marshes. This site does have a
narrow marsh fringe along the northern and northwestern property
line. However, no development will take place within the marsh
fringe. There are no significant impacts to the northern diamond
terrapin anticipated.
Several sea turtle species could potentially utilize open water in the
marina vicinity for foraging purposes. This primarily includes the
green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas incl. agassizi), Kemp's ridley sea
turtle (Lepidochelys kempit), and loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta
caretta). The hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricate) and
leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) could also utilize this
area as a resource; however, both species are more common in
oceans than estuarine sounds. Since sea turtles are free-
swimming and construction will be temporary, it is likely that there
will not be long term impacts to sea turtles.
Likewise, the American eel (Anguilla rostrata), shortnose sturgeon
(Acipenserbrevirostrum) and West Indian manatee (Trichechus
manatus) could potentially utilize open waters in the vicinity of the
marina. However, given that these species are all free-swimming
and construction will be temporary, it is unlikely that there will be
impacts to these species.
Environmental Assessment 14
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
The black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis) has been shown to inhabit
brackish marshes and could potentially utilize the narrow marsh
fringe on -site. No development is being proposed within the marsh
and it is therefore unlikely that there will be long term impacts to the
black rail population. The eastern painted bunting (Passerina ciris
ciris) was identified within a 0.5 mile radius of the project site;
however, there is no suitable habitat on -site.
The only plant species with potential on -site habitat that is listed as
threatened or endangered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service is
Raven's boxseed (Ludwigia ravenii), which could inhabit a number
of areas, including marshes. No development will take place in the
on -site marsh fringe.
Significant impacts to wildlife and natural vegetation are not
anticipated.
N. Introduction of Toxic Substances
There is no evidence of toxic substances being discharged on the
subject property. No fuel service will be provided at the marina
therefore, issues associated with fuel spills are not expected to be
significant. No maintenance services will be provided or will be
allowed on -site. Marina rules and regulations will establish and
enforce a "no overboard discharge" of waste policy.
It is anticipated that there will be no toxic substances introduced as
a result of the proposed project.
VI. Mitigative Measures
When the property was originally purchased by the applicant, the
impervious parking facilities extended across a majority of the on -site
uplands. In order to help deter excessive stormwater runoff from the
impervious gravel parking facilities, the applicant has voluntarily reclaimed
approximately 3,150 sq. ft of green space along the eastern perimeter of
the property, within NC CAMA's 30 ft Coastal Shoreline Buffer. This
reclaimed space previously consisted of large gravel deposits and packed
dirt and was utilized for parking. The applicant has since planted grass in
the reclaimed space and it is no longer used for parking.
In addition, the marina policy will be to allow no overboard discharge of
waste, including treated or untreated sewage. The marina will feature a
portable waste pumpout system on the floating dock to service vessel
holding tanks. The pumpout system will be easily accessible and in a
convenient location for boaters. It will be the responsibility of the dock
Environmental Assessment 15
Beaufort Marina Village Yacht Club, Inc., Beaufort Channel, Carteret County
owner's association to hire a contractor to routinely remove wastes from
the pumpout system.
Given the current zoning and adjacent land uses, the site is suitable for
the requested marina expansion.
VII. Cumulative Impacts
The addition of ten boat slips will slightly increase the amount of
recreational boating in the.vicinity of the Town of Beaufort and adjacent
waterways. The proposed marina will offer docking abilities to vessels
ranging in length from 20 ft to 65 ft. Intended clientele is common in this
vicinity of coastal North Carolina and is consistent with surrounding
marinas.
As previously discussed, commercial and recreational saltwater fishing is
an important contributor to the Carteret County economy. As a result, this
area is already heavily utilized by both commercial and recreational
vessels. In order to assess the potential cumulative impacts resulting from
the proposed expansion, the number and type of docking facilities within a
2 mile radius of the proposed project were used for the basis of
comparison. Private waterfront properties to the west of the project site,
off of Old Causeway Road and Morgan Road include a number of private
piers and two large marinas. Piver's Island to the south is utilized by
NOAA and Duke University as marine based research facilities. Both
facilities have individual docking systems for research vessels. The Town
of Beaufort waterfront district is located to the southeast of the project site.
There are a number of marinas offering docking facilities for both
commercial and recreational vessels, including Beaufort City Docks which
offers approximately 93 wet slips for vessels up to 250 ft. There are also a
large number of privately owned individual docks associated with the
Town of Beaufort. In addition, following Beaufort Channel further
upstream towards Town Creek, there are several large marinas, including
Town Creek Marina, which offers approximately 96 wet slips to vessels up
to 190 ft.
Although the proposed project will add another ten slips to the area, this
increase is not significant in comparison to the existing docking facilities
that are currently providing services in the Beaufort vicinity. It is,
therefore, unlikely that there will be any detrimental effects to the
environment.

IX. State and Federal Permits. Required
A CAMA Major Development Permit Application will be submitted for
review by the NC Division of Coastal Management (DCM): The Division of
Coastal Management will coordinate state agency review of the
development application. Other state commenting agencies include the
Divisions of Water Quality, Land Resources, Water Resources, Marine
Fisheries, Environmental Health, Archives and History, Community
Assistance, as well as the Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC), the
Department of Administration (DOA) and the Department of
Transportation (DOT). Federal review is coordinated by the US Army
Corp of Engineers. Commenting federal agencies coordinated by the
USACE include the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS).
An exemption from State Stormwater permitting will be requested since no
new impervious cover is requested and upland portions of the property are
already developed.
This particular site has previously received a number of approved permits
by DCM for development in an Area of Environmental Concern.
A CAMA Major Permit was issued in 1994 (No. 15-94) to Rodney and
Debra Hoell of Beaufort, NC. Structures approved under the conditions of
this permit included a dock, bulkhead and pier. The permit also approved
site excavation to a maximum of 6 feet NLW.
A CAMA Major Permit was issued in 1998 (No. 47-98) to Rodney Hoell of
Beaufort, NC. Structures approved under the conditions of this permit
included a dock and pier. The permit also approved bulkhead repair and
site excavation to a maximum of 5 feet NLW. The dredge plan originally
permitted in Permit No. 47-98 received approval for Minor Modification
through DCM in 1999 to include the use of hydraulic dredging.
In 2005, Rodney Hoell was issued a series of general permits for the
purposes of repairing and replacing the bulkhead and maintenance
dredging around existing docks (General Permit No. 40724, No. 41317C,
No. 41996C, and No. 43440C).
In 2005, Rodney Hoell also received a General Permit (No. 43509C) to
install a boatlift in the existing docking facility.

Re: Project Review, Condominiums, Pivers Island, Near Beaufort, Carteret County, ER 06-2761
Dear Ms. Futral:
Thank you for pour email letter of October 18, 2006. -We-have reviewed our site -files for the above -project and
offer the following comments.
The project area is located adjacent to the causeway leading to Pivers Island. No archaeological sites are noted
within this area on site file,maps at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA). This location is considered a low
probability area for the presence of significant archaeological sites. An archaeological survey will not be
recommended in the event are review any permit applications related to this project.
This site is, however, highly visible from the Beaufort Historic District, a property listed in the National Register of
Historic Places and locally designated. Any plan for the proposed condominiums and associated facilities should be
reviewed by us to determine their effect on the historic district
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment; please
contact Renee Gledhill -Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919-733-4763, ext. 246. In all future
communication concerning this project, please cite the above -referenced tracking number.
Sincerely,

ARTICLE VI
COVENANT FOR ASSESSMENTS
Section 1. Creation of the Lien and Personal Obligation of Assessments
A. Each owner of each membership, except all Charter Memberships,
agrees to pay the Association:
1. regular assessments;
2. special assessments;
3. assessments for violations of this Declaration, the Bylaws or Rules
and Regulations; and
4. assessments for repairs of damage caused by fault, such
assessments to be fixed, established and collected from time to time
as hereinafter provided.
All such assessments, together with such interest thereon and costs of
collection thereof, as hereinafter provided, shall be a charge on the offending
Members and shall be a continuing lien upon the membership against which
each such assessment is made. Each such assessment, togetherwith such
interest, costs and reasonable attorney's fees, shall also be the personal
obligation of the person who was the owner of such membership at the time
the assessment became due. Personal obligations for delinquent
assessments shall not pass to successors in title unless the same is
expressly assumed by such successor.
B. DUE TO THE EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS FOR THE COSTS OF
DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS, THE CHARTER MEMBER SHALL
BE EXEMPT FROM ALL ASSESSMENTS UNTIL JANUARY 1, 2007.
BEGINNING ON JANUARY 1, 2007, THE CHARTER MEMBER WILL PAY
10
ASSESSMENTS ONLY ON THOSE CHARTER MEMBERSHIPS THATARE
RENTED TO THIRD PARTIES, IF ANY. SUCH ASSESSMENTS ON
RENTED CHARTER MEMBERSHIPS SHALL BE PAYABLE ONLY
DURING THE TERM OF ANY SUCH RENTAL, TO BE PRORATED BASED
UPON THE BEGINNING AND ENDING DATES OF SUCH TERM.
Section 2. Assignment of Assessments Class A Members will have the
responsibility for the operating expenses of the Marina, maintaining and insuring the docks,
piers, pilings, bulkhead; electrical, plumbing; common areas, storage units, and those
amenities associated with the same, and paying the ad valorem taxes thereon.
Assessments shall be allocated in accordance with the square footage within each slip;
and is originally established in accordance with the following schedule:

This original allocation of assessments, and all future allocations, is based upon a
percentage found by the square footage within a slip as the numerator and the total square
footage within all constructed slips as the denominator, By way of example, if a member
has a 800-square-foot boat slip and the total square footage of all boat slips in the Marina
is 6,400, then that member would pay 12.5 % of the total assessment, that is 800/ 6,400 =
I
012.5 which is rounded to next highest 100t' of a percentage point since over .005). If and
when new slips are constructed on the property, each new slip and all previously
constructed slips (as identified above) will be assessed with a portion of the Common
Expenses in proportion (percentage %) with that slip's square footage as compared to the
total square footage in all constructed slips.
Section 3. Purpose of Assessments The assessments levied by the Association
will be used:
A. to maintain all private roads constructed within the Common Areas to the

other governmental unit for maintenance;

assessments applicable to that year only, for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part,
the cost of any construction or reconstruction, unexpected repair or replacement of capital
improvements upon any of the Common Area and the necessary or convenient fixtures
and personal property related thereto, or for defraying the expenses of operation,
maintenance and/or renovation not adequately funded by regular assessments. Except as
13
specified herein all special assessments shall be determined, imposed, levied and
collected in the manner prescribed in the Bylaws, provided that, if such special assessment

shall have been sent to all Members not less than ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60)
days in advance of the meeting setting forth the time, date, place and purpose of the

Association shall, upon demand at any reasonable time, furnish a certificate in writing
signed by an officer of the Association setting forth whether the assessments against a

for issuance of these certificates. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of payment
of any assessment herein stated to have been paid.
14
Section 8. Assessments for Repairs of Damage Caused by Fault If a Member,
his assignee or licensee, or one of his guests damages or destroys, by his or her fault, as
determined by the Board, any of the property of the Association, including but not limited to
the private roads, clubhouse, landscaping, bulkheads, piers, docks and other facilities, the
Association shall repair the damage or replace the destroyed property as soon as
practicable and shall levy an individual assessment upon the owner(s) of that membership
for the full cost of repair or replacement.
Section 9. Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments - Remedies of the Association
Any assessments or any portions thereof that are not paid when due shall be delinquent. If
the assessment or any portion thereof is not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date,
the same shall become a lien on such membership and bear interest from the date of
delinquency at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum amount
allowed bylaw, whichever is less. No Member may waive or otherwise escape liability for
the assessments provided for herein by non-use or abandonment of his membership.
Section 10. Creation of Lien. Recognizing that proper operation and management
of the Common Areas and other property of the Association requires the continuing
payment of costs and expenses thereof, and that such proper operation and maintenance
result in benefit to all of the owners of memberships, and that the payment of such
common expenses represented by the assessments levied and collected by the Board is
necessary in order to preserve and protect the property of the owners of memberships, the
Association is hereby granted a lien upon each membership, excepting all Charter
Memberships, which lien shall secure and does secure the monies due for all assessments
now or hereafter levied against the owner of each membership which lien shall also secure
interest, if any, which may be due on the amount of any delinquent assessments owing to
the Association, and which lien shall also secure all costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees (to the extent allowed by North Carolina law), which may be
incurred bythe Association in securing the payment of such assessment or enforcing this
lien upon the membership. Though not a condominium unit, the lien granted to the
15
Association may be foreclosed in the manner provided by North Carolina General Statutes
Section 47A-22 as may be amended from time to time; and in any suit for the foreclosure
of that lien, the Association shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for that
membership. The lien granted to the Association shall further secure such advances for
taxes, and payments on account of superior mortgages, liens, or encumbrances which may
be required to be advanced by the Association in order to preserve and protect its lien, and
the Association shall further be entitled to interest at the rate prescribed above on any such
advances made for such purposes. All persons, firms, or corporations who shall acquire;
by whatever means, any interest in the ownership of any membership, or who may be
given or acquire a mortgage, lien, or other encumbrance thereon, are hereby placed on
notice of the lien rights granted to the Association, and shall acquire such interest in any
membership expressly subject to such lien rights.
Section 11. Claim of Lien and Foreclosure The lien herein granted unto the
Association shall be enforceable from and after the time of recording a claim of lien in the
public records of Carteret County, North Carolina, which claim shall state the description of
the membership encumbered thereby, the name of the record owner, the amount due and
the date when due. The claim of lien shall be recordable anytime afterdefault and the lien
shall continue in effect until all sums secured by that lien as herein provided shall have
been fully paid. Such claims of lien shall include only assessments which are due and
payable when the claim of lien is recorded, plus interest, costs, attorneys' fees, advances
to pay taxes and prior encumbrances and interest thereon, all as above provided. Such
claims of lien, shall be signed and verified by an officer or agent of the Association. Upon
full payment of all sums secured by such claim of lien, the same shall be satisfied of
record. The Association shall be authorized to foreclose on such lien or claim of lien in any
manner allowed by law. The lien provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any
first mortgage or pledge, and any person, firm or corporation acquiring title to any
membership by virtue of anyforeclosure, transfer in lieu of foreclosure orjudicial sale, shall
be liable and obligated only for assessments as shall accrue and become due and payable
thereafter. After satisfaction of the lawful claims of such first mortgagee/pledge, the net
16
proceeds from any foreclosure sale or private sale shall first be applied to the payment of
all lien claims of the Association, and the balance of such sale proceeds shall then be
delivered to the owner(s) of the membership which was subjected to the foreclosure or
private sale in lieu of foreclosure. In the event of the acquisition of a membership by
foreclosure, transfer in lieu of foreclosure orjudicial sale, any assessment or assessments
as to which the party so acquiring the membership shall not be liable, shall be absorbed,
and paid by all owners of all memberships as a part of the common expenses, although
nothing herein contained shall be construed as releasing the party liable for such
delinquent assessment from payment thereof or the enforcement of collection of such
payment by means other than foreclosure.
Section 12. Lien Not Exclusive Remedy. Whenever any membership may be
licensed, sold or mortgaged by the owner thereof, the Association, upon written request of
the Member(s) shall furnish to the proposed licensee, purchaseror mortgager, a statement
verifying the status or payment of any assessment which shall be due and payable to the
Association by such membership. Such statement shall be signed by any officer of the
Association and any licensee, purchaser, or mortgagee may rely upon such statement in
concluding the proposed license, purchase, or mortgage transaction; and the Association
shall be bound by such statement.
In any voluntary conveyance of a membership, the purchaser thereof shall bejointly
and severally liable with the seller for all unpaid obligations against seller made prior to the
time of such voluntary conveyance, without prejudice to the rights of the purchaser to
recover from seller the amounts paid by purchaser thereof.
Institution of a suit at law to attempt to effect collection of the payment of any
delinquent assessment, attorneys' fees, interest and costs shall not be deemed to be an
election by the Association which shall prevent it from thereafter seeking, by foreclosure
action, enforcement of the collection of any sums remaining owing to it, nor shall
proceeding by foreclosure to attempt such collection be deemed to be an election
precluding the institution of a suit at law to collect any sums then remaining owing to the
Association.
