Investigative process - App. rec. Raleigh 9-2-75; Morehead 9-8-75. Site investigated
9-24-75.
Environmental setting - The project site is a lot located at the end of a dirt access
road off SR 1730 on.Pamlico River at Pamlico Beach. The lot measures some 175' wide by
47' deep on the west end, and 30' deep on the east end. The lot presently contains a
house trailer which has been raised off the ground on pilings and serves as a summer resi-
dence. The applicant has previously constructed a breakwater out of broken concrete slabs
across the front of his property. This breakwater is located approximately 10' offshore
of his lot. The undermining of the existing 3-4' high bank,and the fact that the shore-
line is presently within 2' of the existing residence, indicates that severe erosion is
ongoing. Behind the existing rock breakwater, the water depth approximates 1' with no
emergent or submerged aquatic vegetation being evident.
Project description - The applicant proposes to backfill the area behind the existing
rock breakwater for the entire 175' length of his lot to a width of 10' and a depth of
31'. Approximately 200 cu.yds. of fill material will be secured from a highland source
and deposited behind theeexisting structure.
Environmental impact - If the project is completed as proposed, approximately 1750 sq.
ft. of shallow water habitat will be filled. Some short term localized turbidity will
be created by this project. No marsh or bottom vegetation will be covered. Due to the
limited depth of the existing lot, the project will have some beneficial results by adding
additional buffer area between the river and septic tank drain fills.
