THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE ENDOWMENT FUND OF N.C. STATE UNIVERSITY Beaufort County I►/1; ► ul_ 1l11 The applicant owns a 8 acre tract of land adjacent to South Creek at 2002 Hickory Point Road near the Town of Aurora in Beaufort County, North Carolina. The property has been used as a water quality and aquaculture field laboratory since the mid 1960's. Located at the site are several buildings which are used as offices, research facilities, etc., ect. Throughout the years of occupancy, several aquaculture ponds have been excavated at the site, however, much of the site remains wooded. Shoreline erosion is an ongoing problem and several attempts have been made to combat the problem, however these attempts have produced limited success. Vegetation on the property varies from upland grasses, mixed hardwoods and pines, to areas of coastal wetlands in the undeveloped areas. I �3�1�L�� flR3iII��Y:I, The applicant is proposing to replace a pier that was lost during Hurricanes Bertha and Fran. Proposed at this time is a 264' long by 6.0' wide pier with a 22' long by 6.0' wide T- platform at the waterward end. Also located on the pier will be a 3.0' wide by 6.0' long stepdown platform, an on the west side of the pier a 3.0' wide by 7.0' long access platform which terminates into a 12.0' long by 2.0' wide access pier. These two accesses will form an area for a boat mooring on the east side of the pier. Water depths at the waterward end of the completed pier will be approximately 5.0' at normal water. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The project as proposed should have a minimal environmental impact.
