8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to construct a second pier for access from a single
family dwelling to an existing boat house.

THOMAS L. EDWARDS
Beaufort County
ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
The applicant owns a 1.78 acre tract of land off SR 1936 adjacent to Durham Creek in the
Bonnertown Community of Beaufort County, North Carolina. Located on the property is a two
story single family dwelling which is served by a septic tank sewage disposal system and a
individual well for potable water. The west side of the property is bulkheaded adjacent to a
manmade canal, as well is a portion of the shoreline adjacent to Durham Creek west of an existing
boat ramp. The remainder of the shoreline has been left in a natural state. Vegetation at and near
the NWL is dominated by a narrow fringe of Juncus roemerianus. To the east of the existing boat
ramp is a f30' long pier with an L-shaped platform which is located to the east of the pier.
Adjacent to -the platform is a boat house which serves for the mooring of two boats. The boat
house has a flat roof and steps lead from the platform to the top of the boat house. The roof is
being used as a sundeck with railings on all four sides.
PROJECT PROPOSAL
The applicant is proposing to construct a second pier which will be f52' long by 5' wide
pier which will connect the upper deck of the two story dwelling to the roof of the boat house.
The pier will have one bend (see plan view plat) so that it can align with the two existing
structures. The portion of the pier which will be beyond the NWL of Durham Creek will have an
elevation of f9' so as not to restrict any navigation.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The project as proposed as proposed should have a minimal environmental impact. Some
short term turbidity will exist during project construction.
