Morning all,
In A&M conversations with the applicant and DMF the applicant has agreed to make the terminal end of the pier, from
the finger piers waterward, 6 ft above NHW. The applicant will be ramping up to the 6ft somewhere waterward of the
slough. This ramping up will be determined by the contractor and any safety concerns to minimize excessive ramping or
requiring steps to achieve the height above NHW. Therefore it is difficult to adjust the workplans to reflect this
change. DCM will be conditioning this change in any final decision that results in a permit issued.
Thanks,
Gregg

Hey Greg, thanks for the call this afternoon.
After our discussion I've come up with three items that I believe will
considerably help the concerns of marine fisheries.
1) use through flow(this is the decking with holes in it to allow sunlight in
and water up through) decking throughout the project the walkway the
covered area and sitting area will all be through flow decking (this is a
fairly significant cost)
2) raise the walkway as well as sitting area and deck area 18 inches higher
(than the proposed design).
3) reduce the boatlift covered area by 3 feet (updated proposed size to be
14'x21' (from 14x24') which includes reducing the finger pier around boat
lift covered area
These three items I believe will make a significant change to the effected
sunlight areas

Please let me know your thoughts.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The project is for a pier, uncovered and covered platform
and covered boatlift for 167 Big Hammock Point Road. As a requirement of the original
major permit for the Pelican Point s/d this lot had a deed restriction which prohibited a
dock to be built on Chadwick Bay; since then, the deed restriction has been removed.

Field Investigation Report:
Wiest 167 Big Hammock Point Road
Page 02
9. Narrative Description:
The 167 Big Hammock Point Road project is located at Big Hammock Point Road which is
part of the existing Pelican Point subdivision. Pelican Point was permitted through major
permit # 43-95 for infrastructure, 481ots; and a community docking facility. Big Hammock
Point Rd. is found by turning left off of Grandview Drive in Sneads Ferry. Chadwick Bay
borders this site to the west.
Permit #43-95 was originally issued to Pelican Point S/D by Scarafoni Associates, Inc., on
April 24, 1995. The original permit had deed restrictions which read, "deed restrictions shall
be placed on the owners of all unsold lots on Chadwick Bay specifically lots 8, 9, 13, 14, 15,
16, and 17 that prohibits them from construction out into Chadwick Bay. The owner of lot 46
shall also have deed restrictions prohibiting construction waterward ofMHW since it will be
entitled to a boat slip within the community pier and dock." 167 Big Hammock Point Rd. is
identified as lot 17 according to permit #43-95, restrictive covenants recorded in book 1145,
Page 445, Onslow County Registry.
After the permit authorization of # 43-95, the original applicant, Scarafoni Associates, Inc.
transferred ownership to the Pelican Point Homeowners Association. On 5/4/2021 Mr. Wiest
received a "RELEASE FROM DECLARATION OF PROTECTIVE COVENANTS OF
PELICAN POINT," recorded in book 5452, Pages 559-563, Onslow County Registry.
167 Big Hammock Point Rd, is .798 acres (34,793 Sq.ft) in its entirety and is an average of
13' above NHW. The total length of the shoreline is 1.17'. There is a 75' x 105' fringe of
Coastal Wetlands present along the shore adjacent to Chadwick Bay. This fringe contains
Smooth Coordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), Giant Cordgrass (Spartina cynosuriodes), Black
Needlerush (Juncus romerianus), and Salt Meadow Grass (Spartina patensl. Within the waters
of Chadwick Bay expanses of franchised oyster beds are present. The water depths in
Chadwick Bay are shallow (-2'nlw) and according to the applicant and DMF site visit records,
reach —3' NLW within the channel portion and an average of — 2' at NLW at the waterward
end of the proposed structure. There is an unnamed "slough" along the waterward edge of the
property. The slough varies in width along the property from 12' to 22' wide and has an
average depth of 9" at normal high water and would be.classified as "navigable" by the
Division.
This section of Chadwick Bay is a Primary Nursery Area as designated by the Division of
Marine Fisheries and the Division of Water Quality classifies it as SA/HQW waters. The area
in which the proposed project would take place is Conditionally Approved - Open to the
taking of shellfish. Onslow County Land Use Plan dated 2010 classifies this area as
Conservation within the AECs.

Field Investigation Report:
Wiest 167 Big Hammock Point Road
Page 03
10. Proiect Description:
The applicant is proposing a 5' x 286' pier, a partially covered 18' x 19' platform part of
t w ich is a 13' x 13' covered area with a 1' overhang on the eastern and southern side, a 16' x
6' covered boatlift. The covered boatlift will be surrounded by two finger piers 19' x 3' and
24" x 3' and will contain a 13' x 13' boatlift. No upland development is proposed.
The pier would extend from high ground and cross over coastal wetlands landward of NHW
for approximately 181'. Cross a 14' area of navigable waters and be elevated 6' above the
normal high water (NHW) level, continue over another 25' section of coastal wetlands, and
extend 38' over open water to lead to the docking facility. The maximum boat length would
be 2l' and of open runabout design. The water depths along the platform and within the slip
is -1.92 to -2.0' at normal low water as verified by Kim Harding with the Division of Marine
Fisheries. The most water ward portion of the structure would be located 67' waterward of the
edge of the marsh:
The Division has determined through previous permit activity, that the configuration of marsh
and oyster beds along the shoreline of this property establishes the point from which to
measure the water body for the immediate area, creating a width of 1,460'. In consideration of
this, the impedance into the water body by the structure consequently extends approximately
67' into the 1,460' waterbody of Chadwick Bay. The pier and platform would be located
approximately 29' to the west and 34' to the east of the adjacent riparian lines.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The proposed pier as would shade and incorporate 175 ft? of coastal wetlands above NHW,
as well as shade and incorporate750 ftz of coastal wetlands below NHW. A total 2,082 ft2
of open water of would be shaded and 1,198 ftz incorporated by the pier, platform and
boatlift. The structure should not cause a hindrance to navigation. The docking facility will,
be located within the shellfish lease/franchise area of Brian Shephard.

We will be building a dock (5'x286') with a 12'x12' covered sitting area and an 8'X12' open area up front. There will be a
14'x23' covered boat slip. A bridge will be added at —236' mark of the walkway to clear 14' of ditch, the bridge will be
built in such a way to be at least 6 feet over the ditch at NHW (9"). Dock will be constructed using round marine treated
pilings, 2x6 stringers and joists, 2x8 girders double bolted with 5/8" galvanized bolts. The dock will be decked with gray
ThruFlow decking and secured with 316 grade stainless steel screws. There will be a 3' wide finger pier around the
perimeter of the covered slip.

Hi Curt,

My original objection still stands as long as Weist is trying to build anything into Chadwick Bay and I have included a

HI Curt,
I am not sure how formal you need the objection to be but this is a start until we have more time.
I do objection to Mr Wiest building anything into Chadwick Bay from his lot on Pelican Point.
1. Mr Wiest bought this property with full knowledge of the restrictions on his deed and the former owner also knew
about the deed restriction and Mr Kalten and Mr Wiest had a discussion about the water access before he bought the
property.
2. In the agreement that the property developer made with the state of North Carolina the property owner was given
an exclusive and perpetual right to a boat slip on the waterway in exchange for giving up all right to a dock into
Chadwick Bay. I notice Mr Wiest still has that boat slip on his deed and the state of INC made their intent clear when they
made this agreement that the property owner could not have both and I think the state should be the one enforcing this
agreement.
3. The Homeowners Assoc. cannot remove this covenant or restriction from Mr Wiest's deed, they did not make the
agreement and have no standing in removing it or controlling it in any way.

4. The Homeowners Assoc. can change certain things in their HOA rules, this is not one of them but if it was one of
them, the process to change a rule or restriction was not followed according to the HOA rules/bylaws.
5. A deed restriction or covenant cannot be removed by just anyone, I am fairly sure it takes a judge to be allowed
that much power.
Respectfully yours,
Brian Shepard

Mr. Shepard -
I wanted to follow up after I had a chance to look over what you sent yesterday. Thanks for sending the information.
While DEQ isn't a party to the developer's deed restrictions, the permit condition agreed to by the developer on the
1995 permit was the reason the restrictions was put into place. Curt is going to pull that permit file and we will discuss
next steps for DCM.
I also responded to your neighbor Mr. Weist this morning, and wanted to share it. Please see below.
Thanks -

Good morning Mr. Weist-

I finally had time yesterday to review the information Mr. Shepard provided, which results in a change of my advice to
DCM than what I gave before.
It appears that in order for the developer (Scarafoni) to get approval for the community pier, he agreed to a permit
condition on CAMA Major Permit 43-95 to limit development of additional piers. That is how the deed restriction came
to be on several lots in your subdivision, and this is contained in your chain of title in the Declarations of Protective
Covenants of Pelican Point Dock at Book 1254/161. A copy of the 1995 CAMA permit is shown on pp. 185 of the
recorded document (or pdf p 25 on the attached).
While your HOA may have tried to free your lot from the HOA's condition in the declarations, it may not work to relieve
your property of the CAMA permit operational condition.
Curt and DCM staff are looking at the 1995 permit file to see if there is additional helpful information there, and will be
in touch.

Hello Curt,
I just received another request from Kurt Wiest for me to sign an "Adjacent Riparian Property owner
notification/ waiver form" . Of course I will not be signing this form for many reason but even if I did, the dock he is
requesting is not legal. There is a convenient on his deed (along with several others in that area) stating that he may not
have any construction into the waters of Chadwick Bay. This is binding on this property no matter how buys it or how
many times it is sold.
What do I need to provide you to stop him?
Thanks,
Brian Shepard

Brian, there were modifications in the platform area, ultimately I believe it is a reduction in the square footage, but I still
wanted to make sure the neighbors were notified of the changes in the configuration from the previous notification.

HI Christy,
I just received another "notification of permit application" from Kurt Wiest to build a pier into Chadwick Bay. I just
wanted to touch base with you and make sure the deed restrictions are still in place and active on these lots in Pelican
Pt.
I also left you a message on your phone this morning but you do not need to call if email is easier for you.

Mr. Shepard -
I wanted to follow up after I had a chance to look over what you sent yesterday. Thanks for sending the information.
While DEQ isn't a party to the developer's deed restrictions, the permit condition agreed to by the developer on the
1995 permit was the reason the restrictions was put into place. Curt is going to pull that permit file and we will discuss
next steps for DCM.
I also responded to your neighbor Mr. Weist this morning, and wanted to share it. Please see below.
Thanks -
Christy

Good morning Roy,

I hope you and your team are doing well.
Just sending you a note and a follow up on my peer permit. My assumption has been, If there has been no other
correspondence from Shepherd, it appears from the notes from CAMA legal counsel below that this matter should be
resolved and a permit granted.
Could you please send us an update at your earliest convenience?
++++++++++++++++++
DCM legal counsel reviewed the deed restriction that was on that property and based on that review- it is her opinion
that the attached the document titled "release from declaration of protective covenants of Pelican Point' was an action
by the HOA which released the restriction on pier construction. Based on this opinion, DCM believes that the applicant
has satisfied the complete application requirement in 7.1 .0204(b)(4) of "a deed or other instrument under which the
applicant claims title" where the deed restriction has been lifted and the property is otherwise riparian with the usual
associated riparian rights.
Thank you,
Kurt Wiest

Hi Curt,
Thank you for calling me back today. Here is some of the history and past conversations with Roy and others regarding
our pier application. I have also attached the DEED changes as they have released us from the restriction of construction
into the BAY as well as the pier design. We have signed approvals from both neighbors as well as the HOA but the
submerged bottom owner will not sign the approval. We live in a water community and just want to get a pier out into
the water about 50 feetl What are the next steps to gain permit approval?

Hi Josh.
I am glad we could get that site visit taken care of easily. Below are some quick notes for our dock/pier guidelines. I
have attached the resource layers to be pulled into Google Earth, that we use when reviewing permits. If you
download the software to your computer you can view past conditions. I also included our layer that identifies the

Good luck, let me know if I can help out any further.

Floating structures are OK based on GP rules 15A NCAC 07H.125(h)(i). 18" stops can be recommended for extreme
tides.
Boat lifts are OK with 18" stops (vessel size should be within reason, no yachts).
`Only Brunswick and some New Hanover Co.
SAV or Shellfish, have concerns with shading and direct impact potential. With SAV in lieu of a floating dock, a lift
platform may be possible or move the orientation of the structure to reduce impact. 15A NCAC 07H.1205(h)(i) does
allow floating structures >_ 1.5ft. at Low Water in PNA, SAV and oyster.
• Ift.<x<1.5%
o <50ft. to deep water or AIW W
o Good tidal amplitude
o Bottom type? (sandy or less productive mud bottom and high energy)
No floating structures. High potential for vessel to impact the resource. A fixed step down platform is a
better option.
Boat lifts could be OK as long as smaller vessels (check lift weight) with 18in. or 24in. stops.
Observation piers with a step down platform for a kayak launch OK. Depth is too shallow for a formalized
boat slip. Can be elevated to a MP for additional inspection.
Hi Roy.
I went out with Josh today at low tide. I measured water depths from 1.92' - 2.0' NLW. I did not find any live oyster
clumps or SAV/roots, though it is late in the year, so that makes sense. The substrate is very compact in the area as well.
Due to the conditions I observed, I would not deem a fixed pier, with a boat lift to cause adverse impacts to the habitat.
Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.

Hope this finds you doing well.
We have an application for a proposed docking facility at 167 Big Hammock Point Rd,
Sneads Ferry in Onslow County. This area is a PNA and GIS imagery and the DMF
4

mapping tool indicate there are SAV resources in the area. In addition, there is a
submerged land claim adjacent to the property.
In order to make a permit decision whether this could be permitted under the CAMA
General Permit or if it would require a CAMA Major Permit, I am requesting your review
of the project, the project site and comments and opinion in regards to potential
impacts, if any to SAVs and/or shellfish resources in the vicinity of the proposed project.
Please let Brad or I know if you are aware of any SAV or shellfish resource adjacent to
this property or if you prefer, select a date you are available to meet on the site to
evaluate and discuss.

MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Comments and Recommendations - CAMA Major Permit-Weist,167 Big
Hammock Point Rd., Sneads Ferry, Onslow County.
The following is my assessment and consequent recommendations of the above
referenced proposal: This proposal involves the development of a private
residential docking facility. The development conforms to the guidelines set forth
under 15A NCAC 07H .0208. The waters of Chadwick Bay are open to shellfish
harvest and is designated as a Primary Nursery Area. Assuming that state and
federal agencies concur with the proposal, the District recommends the project be
authorized as proposed, contingent upon the following conditions:
• All development shall be constructed as shown on plats and application accepted as
complete by DCM on June 16, 2022.
• Besides standard conditions, it is recommended to include condition language addressing
the requirement to elevate the section of pier over the navigable unnamed mosquito ditch
to a height necessary to allow the traditional use of waters located along that waterbody.
It is recommended to follow the advice of general counsel regarding the legality of any deed
restrictions which were rescinded by the HOA on the property of 167 Big Hammock Point
Rd.

Hi Roy.
I went out with Josh today at low tide. I measured water depths from 1.92' - 2.0' NLW. I did not find any
live oyster clumps or SAV/roots, though it is late in the year, so that makes sense. The substrate is very
compact in the area as well. Due to the conditions I observed, I would not deem a fixed pier, with a boat
lift to cause adverse impacts to the habitat.

Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.

Hope this finds you doing well.
We have an application for a proposed docking facility at 167 Big Hammock
Point Rd, Sneads Ferry in Onslow County. This area is a PNA and GIS
imagery and the DMF mapping tool indicate there are SAV resources in the
area. In addition, there is a submerged land claim adjacent to the property.
In order to make a permit decision whether this could be permitted under
the CAMA General Permit or if it would require a CAMA Major Permit, I am
requesting your review of the project, the project site and comments and
opinion in regards to potential impacts, if any to SAVs and/or shellfish
resources in the vicinity of the proposed project.
Please let Brad or I know if you are aware of any SAV or shellfish resource
adjacent to this property or if you prefer, select a date you are available to
meet on the site to evaluate and discuss.

All,
Pursuant to the CAMA-Corps Programmatic Permit process, the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management
(NCDCM) has forwarded to our office a copy of a CAMA permit request, Field Investigation Report and Bio Report for the
subject project. The attached notice requests federal agency comments on this project by August 18, 2022.
The applicant proposes to construct a 5' x 286' pier, a partially covered 18' x 19' platform part of which is a 13' x 13'
covered area with a 1' overhang on the eastern and southern side, a 16' x 26' covered boatlift. The covered boatlift will
be surrounded by two finger piers 19' x 3' and 24" x 3' and will contain a 13' x 13' boatlift. No upland development is
proposed. The pier would extend from high ground and cross over coastal wetlands landward of NHW for approximately
181 ', then cross a 14' area of navigable waters and be elevated 6' above the normal high water (NHW) level, continue
over another 25' section of coastal wetlands, and extend 3 8' over open water to lead to the docking facility. The
maximum boat length would be 21' and of open runabout design.
Please see attached application, bio report dated June 17, 2022 , project narrative for details, and the attached kmz file
for reference.
EFH:
This notice serves to re -initiate the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements of the Magnuson -Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management Act. The Corps' initial determination is that the proposed project may affect, but
not likely adversely affect EFH or associated fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery
Management Councils or the National Marine Fisheries Service. Impacts are expected to be minimal due to temporary
nature of sedimentation impacts. The waters within the project area ARE designated as PNA, and are classified as
SA/HQW and are Conditionally Approved -Open to shell fishing. Average water depths within the proposed platform and
slip areas range from -1.92 ft NLW to -2 ft NLW (verified by the NC DMF).
ESA:
The Corps has reviewed the project area, examined all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest
North Carolina Natural Heritage Database. Based on available information, the Corps has determined that the project
may affect but is not likely to adversely affect the West Indian manatee.

Subject: Consistency Determination, Major Permit Application, Lilla Kurt
Wiest, Onslow County
Date: August 23, 2022
This project appears to be consistent and not in conflict with the Onslow County
Land Use Plan Update.
The applicant proposes to install a new pier, uncovered and covered platform and covered
boatlift at 167 Big Hammond Point Road in Sneads Ferry, Onslow County.
Areas of Environmental Concern (AFC's) impacted by the proposal are Estuarine
Waters, Coastal Wetlands and Public Trust Areas. Waters at the project site are classified
as SA/HQW and are not open to the harvesting of shellfish. The area is a Primary
Nursery Area.
I have reviewed this proposal for consistency with the Onslow County Land Use Plan
Update and offer the following comments.
The general area of the project is classified as Conservation.
In general, Onslow County allows development in Conservation classified AECs which is
consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Onslow County Land Use Plan
contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum use standards. However,
none of these more restrictive policies appear to be applicable to this project.
This project appears to be consistent with the.Onslow County Land Use Plan
Update.

Greg,
We do appreciate the applicant's efforts, however, the application states the use of FlowThru material for the dock, so
that is not a minimization of the original proposal. The Division recommends more minimization to the project's shading
impacts. If the applicant cannot configure a 50% reduction in the boat life cover, the Division recommends removing the
covered gazebo. All the docking facilities inside this portion of Chadwick Bay do not have more than one covered
structure, this is typical minimization in SAV habitat and supported by "Construction Guidelines in Florida for Minor
Piling -Supported Structures Constructed in or over Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV), Marsh or Mangrove Habitat"

Morning Kim,
The proposed vessel indicated on the MP-4 form is 18 feet in length, which was the reasoning for the. reduction in
boathouse size to 21 feet in length (to include the engine and covering the finger pier). The applicant indicated to me
that he hoped the supplemental minimizations included along with the reduction in boathouse size would be seen as
acceptable to overall reduction in shading impacts.
Can you provide additional information to the need to reduce the boathouse by half in regard to the existing A&M
proposal?

SUBJECT: Kurt Wiest
DATE: August 29, 2022
MP SECTICH PAM
A North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Fisheries Resource Specialist has
reviewed the CAMA Permit application for proposed actions that impact fish and fish
habitats. The proposed project is for a pier, an uncovered platform, covered platform and
covered boatlift. This section of Chadwick Bay is a Marine Fisheries Commission (MFC)
designated Primary Nursery Area (PNA) and the Division of Water Quality classifies it as
SA/HQW waters. The area in which the proposed project would take place in waters
classified as Conditionally Approved Open for shellfish harvest. The docking facility will be
located within an existing shellfish franchise with an active bottom lease.
The proposed project is in Chadwick Bay where water depths are shallow, -2' NLW and has
extensive Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) habitat. On November 20, 2020, a DMF
representative went to verify water depths at the project site and measured 1.92'-2.0'
where the boat lift will be sited. The substrate is primarily sandy mud with scattered
oysters in the vicinity. On August 10, 2022, representatives from DMF and DWR conducted
a SAV survey and did not find any present in the project area. The DCM representative
stated in the project narrative that no SAV was present in June 2022. However, SAV has
been mapped in the project area during 2015 and 2021 surveys. The Marine Fisheries
Commission (MFC) give the following definition of SAV habitat:
"15A NCAC 03I.0101 DEFINITIONS
(4) (i) Submerged aquatic vegetation habitat. Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) habitat is
submerged lands that:
(i) are vegetated with one or more species of submerged aquatic vegetation including bushy
pondweed or southern naiad (Najasguadalupensis), coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum),
eelgrass (Zostera marina), horned pondweed (Zannichellia palustris), naiads (Najas spp.),
redhead grass (Potamogeton perfoliatus), sago pondweed (Stuckenia pectinata, formerly
Potamogeton pectinatus), shoalgrass (Halodule wrighth), slender pondweed (Potamogeton
pusillus), water stargrass (Heteranthera dubia), water starwort (Callitriche heterophylla),
waterweeds (Elodea spp.), widgeongrass (Ruppia maritima), and wild celery (Vallisneria

americana). These areas may be identified by the presence of above -ground leaves, below -
ground rhizomes, or reproductive structures associated with one or more SAV species and
include the sediment within these areas; OR
(ii) have been vegetated by one or more of the species identified in Sub -item (4)(i)(i) of this
Rule within the past 10 annual growing seasons and that meet the average physical
requirements of water depth (six feet or less), average light availability (secchi depth of one
foot or more), and limited wave exposure that characterize the environment suitable for
growth of SAV. The past presence of SAV may be demonstrated by aerial photography, SAV
survey, map, or other documentation. An extension of the past 10 annual growing seasons
criteria may be considered when average environmental conditions are altered by drought,
rainfall, or storm force winds.
This habitat occurs in both subtidal and intertidal zones and may occur in isolated patches or cover
extensive areas.
SAV is a vital component to the estuarine system and is prime nursery area for many fisheries
species, such as gag grouper, flounder, red drum, black sea bass, weakfish and Atlantic croaker. SAV
supports high diversity of foraging fish and invertebrates and provides valuable ecosystem services
as a primary producer and enhancer of water quality. SAV filters water, stabilizes sediment and
provides refuge for juvenile finfish, crabs and shrimp.
PNAs are estuarine waters where initial post -larval development occurs. Species within this area
are early post -larval to juvenile and include finfish, crabs, and shrimp. Shallow soft bottom is an
important foraging habitat for juvenile and adult fish and invertebrates, and aids in storing and
cycling of sediment, nutrients, and toxins between the bottom and water column. Soft bottom
habitat is used to some extent by most native coastal fish species in North Carolina. The habitat is
particularly productive and, by providing refuge from predators, is an important nursery area.
Species dependent on shallow soft bottom include clams, crabs, flounder, spot, Atlantic croaker, sea
mullet, and rays. Many benthic predators are highly associated with the shallow soft bottom
habitat, including flounders, weakfish, red drum, sturgeon and coastal sharks, although almost all
fish will forage on microalgae, infauna, or epifauna on the soft bottom.
The MFC SAV policy guideline includes: "provide adequate safeguards to prevent direct or indirect
impacts from development projects adjacent to or connected to SAV". Because SAV requires a
certain amount of light penetration to survive, docks can impact the grass directly through shading
and indirectly through prop scarring while ingressing and egressing to deeper water (DEQ 2016).
Therefore, the Division recommends minimization to the project's potential impact to SAV beds by
removing the roof of the 16' x 26' covered boat lift and locating the docking facility in deepest water
possible, preferably greater than 2' MLW. The Division also recommends an in -water -work
moratorium of April 1 to September 30 to reduce disturbance and resuspension of sediment during
the time -period that larval and juvenile finfish and shellfish are most abundance. Such impacts can
be detrimental to early life stages of aquatic organisms. An increase in suspended sediments can
result in clogged gill surfaces and mortality, and can cover oysters, SAV, and other sessile fauna and
flora. Elevated water temperatures reduce dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations, making the
potential for a DO crash from increased turbidity a major concern, even if sediment curtains are
utilized.

OK exactly what I thought. I'd love to climb up to the mosquito ditch and and take that maybe straight out or even have
a gentle slope (to the 6') from there but I'm gonna leave that up to PFL understanding that the approval is based upon
the 6 foot NLW at the structures.
I approve this design with the discretion of Pfl Construction about how best to handle the slope.
Thank you very much I look forward to ACOE input approval so we can move this forward.

Yes you can ramp up to the 6ft elevation, provided that the section DMF is interested in being 6ft above
NWL is at that elevation. To be honest, the more of the pier that is elevated higher would be a good
thing habitat wise. You are allowing more sunlight to reach the water.

Ok I believe I have followed this conversation and reviewed the current proposal. One important
question:
Do you care how we get #3 to the 6' mark (above NLW) "section of the docking facility waterward and
including the finger piers, to also include the covered boat lift, and both the uncovered and covered
decking, will be elevated to a height of Eft above NWL"?
Are you ok if we gradually slope the walkway upward to reach the 6'? In other words, if I look at the
drawing 1 see approximately 63' of pier after crossing the mosquito ditch before reaching the "docking
facility" referenced by Gregg. We do not want to have stairs anywhere and would uld like to build it
such a way as to sloop the walkway in order to get up to the six foot (6') mark. I woulld like to give
PFL the discretion on how best to accomplish this if you folks are ok with that? If you think this
requires a discussion let's have a real quick call today I am moving the contents of my house but will
answer if I see you guys call. otherwise I am fine with it if you could approve this question.

Subject: RE: [External] Re: DMF updates
Understood. So with that here are the facts as I understand them...
1. The original drawings, to include the height of the pier from the high ground,
will revert back to the original height, with the section above Coastal Wetlands
at aft above substrate. The previous modifications (entire structure elevated an
additional 1.5ft and the reduction of the cover boat lift) has been removed.
2. The originally proposed decking to allow sunlight through is still proposed.
3. The section of the docking facility waterward and including the finger piers, to
also include the covered boat lift, and both the uncovered and covered decking,
will be elevated to a height of 6ft above NWL.

Kim can you verify this is correct.
Then Mr. Wiest can you verify your agreement and grant DCM permission to modify the
workplans to reflect these changes?
I appreciate everyone's time and effort on this. Though this can be time consuming, this
is a great example of the CAMA process working as intended. Once all this is complete I
will send out the final workplans to the agencies. Still waiting on the USACE

Yes the design is accurately depicted in the revised design.
The proposed raising of the roofs by 18" is not necessary now. The terminal end being
raised to 6' above NWL is the only recommend change.

Morning all,
I have attached the original plans since they reflect the original size of the boathouse. I
have a couple clarification questions...
1. Is the raising of the terminal end you describe Kim accurately reflected in the
yellow box of Workplan "Page 1 of 3"?
2. If so, is this in addition to the already proposed raising of the rest of the
structure by 1.5ft?
If this is incorrect please let me know. When it is correct additional questions will be on
the way so I can accurately modify the plans for Mr. Wiest's approval.
Thanks,

Good morning all.
In order to minimize shading impacts, I recommend the end of the docking facility with
the boat lift and gazebo be raised to 6' above NWL. This height allows for sufficient
sunlight penetration under the boat lift. The boat lift cover can then remain the
originally proposed 25'.
Thanks.

additional minimization efforts. Kim if you could respond to this email
with a summary of the changes, and then Mr. Wiest could you confirm
you are good with those changes I will review and determine how to

Dear Mr. Howell:
DECEIVED
S E P 2 7 2022
POP SECTION MHD
Reference the application of Kurt Weist to construct an access pier, platforms (covered and
uncovered) and a boatlift in waters of Chadwick Bay, in the Pelican Point subdivision, at 167 Big
Hammock Point Road, in Sneads Ferry, Onslow County, NC.
Specifically, the applicant proposes to construct a 5' x 286' pier, a partially covered 18' x
19' platform part of which is a 13' x 13' covered area with a F overhang on the eastern and
southern side, a 16' x 26' covered boatlift. The covered boatlift will be surrounded by two finger
piers 19' x 3' and 24" x 3' and will contain a 13' x 13' boatlift. No upland development is
proposed. The pier would extend from high ground and cross over coastal wetlands landward of
NHW for approximately 181 ', then cross a 14' area of navigable waters and be elevated 6' above
the normal high water (NHW) level, continue over another 25' section of coastal wetlands, and
extend 3 8' over open water to lead to the docking facility.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by the
application and your field investigation report. We recommend that the following conditions be
included in the modification to the State authorization:
1. In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus,
the applicant must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Manatee Guidelines, and
strictly adhere to all requirements therein. The guidelines can be found at
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/pdfs/ManateeGuidelines20l7.pdf
2. The permittee must install and maintain, at his expense, any signal lights and signals
prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized facilities.
For further information, the permittee should contact the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety
Office at [phone].

-2-
3. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
submitted plans, which are a part of this permit. Any modification to these plans must be
approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) prior to implementation.
4. Except as specified in the plans attached to this permit, no excavation, fill or
mechanized land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in the construction or
maintenance of this project, in such a manner as to impair normal flows and circulation patterns
within waters or wetlands or to reduce the reach of waters or wetlands.
5. Except as authorized by this permit or any USACE approved modification to this
permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land -clearing activities shall take place at any time in
the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not
authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or
wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities
connected with this project.
6. All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste, the
permittee shall immediately report it to the N.C. Division of Water Resources at (919) 733-
5083, Ext. 526 or [phone] and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and
Hazardous Substances Control Act will be followed.
7. Unless otherwise authorized by this permit, all fill material placed in waters or wetlands
shall be generated from an upland source and will be clean and free of any pollutants except in
trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials (including debris from land clearing
activities), or unsightly debris will not be used.
8. If the permittee discovers any previously unknown historic or archeological remains
while accomplishing the authorized work, he will immediately notify the Wilmington District
Engineer who will initiate the required coordination procedures.
9.The permittee shall require its contractors and/or agents to comply with the terms and
conditions of this permit in the construction and maintenance of this project, and shall provide
each of its contractors and/or agents associated with the construction or maintenance of this
project with a copy of this permit. A copy of this permit, including all conditions, shall be
available at the project site during construction and maintenance of this project.
10. The permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary
to prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the
permit area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or
similar appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of
earthen fill, and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Add' 'o�, 1�t e� rojp
must remain in full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation P(liiti`er�l of
1973 (North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4).
S E P 2 7 2022

-3-
11. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a significant increase in
turbidity outside the area of construction or construction -related discharge. Increases such that
the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU's or less in all rivers not designated as trout waters by
the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM), 25 NTU's or less in all
saltwater classes and in all lakes and reservoirs, and 10 NTU's or less in trout waters, are not
considered significant.
12. The permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of this permit or upon its
expiration before completion of the work will, without expense to the United States and in such
time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative may direct,
restore the water or wetland to its pre -project condition.
13. Violations of these conditions or violations of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act or
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act must be reported in writing to the Wilmington District
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers within 24 hours of the permittee's discovery of the violation.

Thanks. We are not adjusting the workplans, but conditioning the ramping up of the pier to the 6ft

the state they are now. More revisions would have taken a long time to get.

Sneads Ferry, NC 28460

Dear Mr. Wiest:

Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to construct an access pier,
platforms (covered and uncovered) and a boatlift in waters of Chadwick Bay, in the Pelican Point
subdivision, at 167 Big Hammock Point Road, in Sneads Ferry, Onslow County, NC.

Your proposal has been reviewed and found to be consistent with the provisions and
objectives of the CAMA-Corps Programmatic Permit process (copy attached) for construction
activities that receive authorization from the State of North Carolina. Therefore, you may
commence construction activity in strict accordance with applicable State authorization, attached
Federal special conditions, and the approved plan. Failure to comply with the State authorization
or conditions of the Federal permit could result in civil and/or administrative penalties.

If any change in your work is required because of unforeseen or altered conditions or for
any other reason, plans revised to show the change must be sent promptly to this office and the
North Carolina Division of Coastal Management prior to performing any such change or
alteration. Such action is necessary as revised plans must be reviewed and the authorization
modified. Your Department of the Army permit will expire on December 31, 2026.

Questions or comments may be addressed to Ms. Liz Hair, Wilmington Field Office,
Regulatory Branch, email: [e-mail].

Sincerely,

Liz Hair, Project Manager
Wilmington Regulatory Field Office

Name of Permittee: General Public
Effective Date: January 01, 2022
Expiration Date: December 31, 2026
DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
REGIONAL GENERAL PERMIT (RGP)
A RGP to do work in or affecting navigable waters of the U.S. and waters of the U.S., upon
recommendation of the Chief of Engineers, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act
of March 3, 1899 (U.S.C. 403), and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), is
hereby issued by authority of the Secretary of the Army by
District Engineer
U.S. Army Engineer District, Wilmington
Corps of Engineers
69 Darlington A venue
Wilmington, North Carolina 28403-1343
TO AUTHORIZE THOSE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES IN THE 20 COASTAL
COUNTIES RECEIVING PRIOR APPROVAL FROM THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
IN THE FORM OF A COASTAL AREA MANAGEMENT ACT (CAMA) PERMIT, AND/OR
A STATE DREDGE AND FILL PERMIT, AND IF REQUIRED, A WATER QUALITY
CERTIFICATION, THAT ARE OTHERWISE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL
AUTHORIZATION IN THE FORM OF A NATIONWIDE PERMIT OR ANOTHER RGP.
Operating Procedures
a. Applications for joint state and federal authorization under this programmatic RGP will
be accepted through the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM). Receipt of
a complete application by the NCDCM will initiate the State's field review that will include a site
visit and preparation of a Field Investigation Report and a state Bio-Report. The NCDCM will
forward a copy of the complete application, its Field Investigation Report, and its Bio-Report, to
the appropriate Corps of Engineers field office, thereby initiating federal review of the project.
The Corps, upon receipt of an application, will immediately assign an action identification
number, acknowledge receipt thereof, and examine the application to assure that it can be
processed pursuant to this programmatic RGP. The applicant and the NCDCM will be furnished
written notification of the Corps' determination. Notification to the applicant will include a brief
description of the administrative process.
b. For those proposals that may result in a discharge into waters of the U.S., including
wetlands, the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) and the applicant will be
informed regarding the applicant's need to obtain a Water Quality Certification in accordance
with section 401 of the Clean Water Act.
c. If, at any time, the Corps determines that a proposed activity is eligible for
authorization under another regional RGP or a nationwide permit (NWP), this procedure may be
terminated and the activity authorized pursuant to the terms and conditions of the appropriate
RGP orNWP.
d. The permit review process conducted by the NCDCM is a public process involving
publication of public notices in local newspapers, public hearings, and various public appeal
procedures. The Corps may issue a separate public notice for a specific proposal if it is deemed
necessary for compliance with appropriate laws, regulation, and guidance.
e. This RGP does not, in any way, alter established procedures or responsibilities, as
required by federal laws, memoranda of agreements (MOA's) or administrative regulations, with
respect to the Corps' coordination with appropriate review agencies. The applicant will continue
to have the opportunity to rebut any objections to a proposal.
f. The Corps will provide copies of the application and plans, the NCDCM's Field
Investigation Report, and the state Bio-Report, to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and any other federal agency that the Corps determines to be a necessary review agency
(collectively, the "Federal Agencies"). Receipt of this material will initiate the Federal Agencies'
review. The Federal Agencies will be allowed sufficient time, normally thirty (30) days, to
provide the Corps with their comments and recommendations, including any proposed permit
special conditions and recommendations of denial. The Corps may grant extensions of time for
Federal Agency review if justified by unusual circumstances. If an extension is granted that
would substantially delay an NCDCM decision, the application may be removed from this RGP
process.
g. The Corps will receive and review all Federal Agency comments as well as any
applicant rebuttal. Provided all Federal Agencies and the Corps are in agreement, the Corps will
prepare a coordinated federal position incorporating all Federal Agency comments, including
proposed permit special conditions and any recommendations for denial. The Corps will
typically furnish this coordinated federal position to the NCDCM within 45 days of its receipt of
the complete application, and copies of the Field Investigation Report and Bio-Report.
h. If the Corps does not concur with a Federal Agency's comments or recommendations,
the Corps will contact the Federal Agency and advise it of the Corps' position. Attempts to
resolve the issue may include initiating the referral procedures outlined by current memoranda of
agreement (MOA's) between the Department of the Army and the agency. No coordinated
federal position will be furnished to the NCDCM until and unless the Corps receives written
agreement from the Federal Agency that all issues have been resolved to the satisfaction of that
agency.
i. If any of the recommendations and/or conditions included in the coordinated federal
position are unacceptable to the NCDCM, the NCDCM will contact the Corps within ten (10)
days of receipt of the coordinated federal position and attempt to resolve the conflict. If
resolution of the conflict involves changes to the conditions or recommendations provided by the
Federal Agencies, the provisions of paragraphs g. and h. (above) will apply. If the conflict is
resolved to the satisfaction of the Corps and any affected Federal Agency, the NCDCM permit
will be issued and the authority of this RGP will apply.
j. If a Federal Agency conflict is not resolved within the time necessary for a decision by
the NCDCM, the NCDCM may proceed, independently, to conclude the state action without
inclusion of the federal position. In such case, the applicant and the NCDCM will be notified
immediately, in writing, that the state permit does not satisfy the federal permit requirements and
that the proposal in question may not proceed without federal authorization.
k. If the coordinated federal position is not in conflict with state agencies' positions, law,
regulation, or policy, and is acceptable to the NCDCM, a state permit will be developed by the
NCDCM fully incorporating the state and federal positions. The NCDCM will furnish copies of
the final permit to the applicant and the Corps. The NCDWR will furnish a copy of the Section
401 Water Quality Certification, if required, to the applicant and the Corps. The Corps will not
confirm the authorization of a proposed project under this RGP until the issuance of the NCDCM
permit and, if required, the Section 401 Water Quality Certification.
1. If the NCDCM permit or Section 401 Water Quality Certification is denied, the
applicant will be informed that federal authorization is denied without prejudice.
m. No work may proceed under this RGP until the Wilmington District Engineer or his
representative provides written verification that the procedures and conditions of the RGP have
been satisfied.
n. The NCDCM and the Corps will monitor all permitted work and periodically inspect
projects for compliance with permit conditions and applicable state and federal regulations. If
any violation of the NCDCM permit is discovered which would also constitute a violation of the
federal position, both the NCDCM and the Corps, in accordance with their respective regulations
and policies, may take enforcement action.
o. This RGP will not be used to authorize an activity when the Wilmington District
Engineer determines that the proposed activity would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment and therefore require preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS).
General Conditions
a. Authorized structures located on or adjacent to Federally authorized waterways will be
constructed in accordance with the latest setback criteria established by the Wilmington District
Engineer. You may review the setback policy at
http://www.saw.usace.anny.mil/Missions/Navigation/Setbacks.aspx. This RGP does not
authorize the construction of hardened or permanently fixed structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback, unless the activity is approved by the Corps. The Permittee must
obtain approval from the Corps prior to the construction of any structures within the Federally
Authorized Channel Setback.
b. Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP, no
excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place, at any time in the
construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not
authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or
wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities
connected with this project.
c. Authorization under this RGP does not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state,
or local authorizations.
d. All work authorized by this RGP must comply with the terms and conditions of the
applicable Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification for this RGP issued by the
North Carolina Division of Water Resources.
e. The Permittee shall employ all sedimentation and erosion control measures necessary
to prevent an increase in sedimentation or turbidity within waters and wetlands outside the
permit area. This shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or
similar appropriate devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of
earthen fill, and the immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project must
remain in full compliance with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973
(North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 113A Article 4).
f. The activities authorized by this RGP must not interfere with the public's right to free
navigation on all navigable waters of the U.S. No attempt will be made by the Permittee to
prevent the full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized
work for a reason other than safety.
g. The Permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if,
in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause umeasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
Permittee will be required, upon due notice from the Corps , to remove, relocate, or alter the
structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim
shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
h. The Permittee, upon receipt of a notice of revocation of the permit for the verified
individual activity, may apply for an individual permit, or will, without expense to the United
States and in such time and manner as the Secretary of the Army or his/her authorized
representative may direct, restore the affected water of the US to its former conditions.
i. This RGP does not authorize any activity that would conflict with a federal project's
congressionally authorized purposes, established limitations or restrictions, or limit an agency's
ability to conduct necessary operation and maintenance functions. Per Section 14 of the Rivers
and Harbors Act of 1899, as amended (33 U.S.C. 408), no project that has the potential to take
possession of or make use of for any purpose, or build upon, alter, deface, destroy, move, injure,
or obstruct a federally constructed work or project, including, but not limited to, levees, dams,
jetties, navigation channels, borrow areas, dredged material disposal sites, flood control projects,
etc., shall be permitted unless the project has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate
Corps approval authority.
j. The Permittee shall obtain a Consent to Cross Government Easement from the
Wilmington District's Land Use Coordinator prior to any crossing of the Corps easement and/or
prior to commencing construction of any structures, authorized dredging, or other work within
the right-of-way of, or in proximity to, a federally designated disposal area. The Land Use
Coordinator may be contacted at: CESAW-OP-N, 69 Darlington Avenue, Wilmington, North
Carolina 28403-1343, email: [e-mail].
k. The Permittee will allow the Wilmington District Engineer or his/her representative to
inspect the authorized activity at any time deemed necessary to assure that the activity is being
performed or maintained in strict accordance with the Special and General Conditions of this
permit.
1. This RGP does not grant any property rights or exclusive privileges.
m. This RGP does not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others.
n. This RGP does not authorize the interference with any existing or proposed federal
project.
o. In issuing this RGP, the Federal Government does not assume any liability for the
following:
(1) Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of other permitted or
unpermitted activities or from natural causes.
(2) Damages to the permitted project or uses thereof as a result of current or future
activities undertaken by or on behalf of the United States in the public interest.
(3) Damages to persons, property, or to other permitted or unpermitted activities or
structures caused by the activity authorized by this RGP.
( 4) Design or construction deficiencies associated with the permitted work.
(5) Damage claims associated with any future modification, suspension, or
revocation of this RGP.
p. Authorization provided by this RGP may be modified, suspended, or revoked in whole
or in part if the Wilmington District Engineer, acting for the Secretary of the Army, determines
that such action would be in the best public interest. The term of this RGP shall be five (5) years
unless subject to modification, suspension, or revocation. Any modification, suspension or
revocation of this authorization will not be the basis for any claim for damages against the
United States Government.
q. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System,
or in a river officially designated by Congress as a "study river" for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency with
direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed
activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic designation or study status. Information on
Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal land management agency
responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or "study river" (e.g., National Park
Service, U.S. Forest Service, etc.)
r. This RGP does not authorize any activity within, or directly affecting, a marine
sanctuary established by the Secretary of Commerce under authority of Section 302 of the
Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972, unless the applicant provides the
Corps with a certification from the Secretary of Commerce that the proposed activity is
consistent with the purposes of Title III of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act.
Information on marine sanctuaries may be obtained at http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/#MN.
Permittees may not begin work until they provide the Corps with a written certification from the
Department of Commerce.
s. In cases where the Wilmington District Engineer determines that the activity may
affect properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic Places and its
codified regulations, the National Historic Preservation Amendment Acts of 1980 and 1992, the
Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987 and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation
Act, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied. Permittees may not begin work until notified by
the Corps that the requirements of the NHPA have been satisfied and that the activity is
authorized.
t. If you discover any previously unknown historic, cultural, or archeological remains
and artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this RGP, you must immediately
notify the Wilmington District Engineer of what you have found, and to the maximum extent
practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and artifacts until the
required coordination has been completed. The Wilmington District Engineer will initiate the
Federal, tribal, and state coordination required to determine if the items or remains warrant a
recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
u. Endangered Species.
(1) No activity is authorized under this RGP which is likely to jeopardize the continued existence
of a threatened or endangered species directly or indirectly or a species proposed for such
designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will
directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity
is authorized under this RGP which "may affect" a listed species or critical habitat, unless
Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed.
(2) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of
the ESA. Federal prospective Permittees (and when FHWA is the lead federal agency) must
provide the District Engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance
with those requirements. The District Engineer will review the documentation and determine
whether it is sufficient to address ESA compliance for the RGP activity, or whether additional
ESA consultation is necessary.
(3) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) or NMFS, the District Engineer may add species-specific endangered species
conditions to the RGP verification letter for a project.
( 4) Authorization of an activity by a RGP does not authorize the "take" of a threatened or
endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization ( e.g., an
ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with "incidental take" provisions, etc.) from the
USFWS or the NMFS, the ESA prohibits any person subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. to
take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap,
capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word "harm" in the
definition of "take" means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may include
significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by
significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding, or sheltering.
(5) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their critical habitat can
be obtained directly from the USFWS in Raleigh, North Carolina at the address provided below,
or from the USFWS and NMFS via their world wide web pages at http://www.fws.gov/
or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and http://www.noaa.gov/fisheries.html respectively.
The Raleigh USFWS Office covers all NC counties east of, and including, Richmond,
Montgomery, Randolph, Guilford, and Rockingham Counties.

(6) The Wilmington District, USFWS, NCDOT, and the FHWA have conducted programmatic
Section 7(a)(2) consultation for a number of federally listed species and habitat, and
programmatic consultation concerning other federally listed species and/or habitat may occur in
the future. The result of completed programmatic consultation is a Programmatic Biological
Opinion (PBO) issued by the USFWS. These PBOs contain mandatory terms and conditions to
implement the reasonable and prudent measures that are associated with "incidental take" of
whichever species or critical habitat is covered by a specific PBO. Authorization under this RGP
is conditional upon the Permittee's compliance with all the mandatory terms and conditions
associated with incidental take of the applicable PBO (or PB Os), which are incorporated by
reference in this RGP. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions associated with incidental
take of an applicable PBO, where a take of the federally listed species occurs, would constitute
an unauthorized take by the Permittee, and would also constitute Permittee non-compliance with
the authorization under this RGP. If the terms and conditions of a specific PBO ( or PB Os) apply
to a project, the Corps will include this/these requirements in any RGP verification that may be
issued for a project. The USFWS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with the
terms and conditions of its PBO, and with the ESA.
(7) Northern long-eared bat (NLEB) (Myotis septentrionalis). Standard Local Operating
Procedures for Endangered Species (SLOPES) for the NLEB have been approved by the Corps
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. See
http://www.saw. usace.army .mil/Missions/Regulatory-Permit-Program/ Agency-
Coordination/ESA/. This SLOPES details how the Corps will make determinations of effect to
the NLEB when the Corps is the lead federal agency for an NCDOT project that is located in the
western 41 counties of North Carolina. This SLOPES do not address NCDOT projects (either
federal or state funded) in the eastern 59 counties in North Carolina. Note that if another federal
agency is the lead federal agency for a project in the western 41 counties, procedures for
satisfying the requirements of Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA will be dictated by that agency and will
not be applicable for consideration under the SLOPES; however, information that demonstrates
the lead federal agency's (if other than the Corps) compliance with Section 7(a)(2) / 4(d) Rule
for the NLEB, will be required in the PCN. Note that at the time of issuance of this RGP, the
federal listing status of the NLEB as "Threatened" is being litigated at the National level. If, as a
result of litigation, the NLEB is federally listed as "Endangered", this general condition (''s")
will no longer be applicable because the 4( d) Rule, and this NLEB SLOPES, will no longer
apply/be valid.
(8) In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus, the
applicant must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Manatee Guidelines, and strictly
adhere to all requirements therein. The guidelines can be found at
https ://www.fws.gov/raleigh/pdfs/ManateeGuidelines201 7 .pdf
(9) If the Permittee discovers or observes any live, damaged, injured, or dead individual of an
endangered or threatened species during construction, the Permittee shall immediately notify the
Wilmington District Engineer so that required coordination can be initiated with the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service.
v. Permittees are advised that development activities in or near a floodway may be
subject to the National Flood Insurance Program that prohibits any development, including fill,
within a floodway that results in any increase in base flood elevations. This RGP does not
authorize any activity prohibited by the National Flood Insurance Program.
w. The Permittee must install and maintain, at his/her expense, any signal lights and
signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized
facilities. For further information, the Permittee should contact Coast Guard Sector North
Carolina at [phone] or email Coast Guard Fifth District at [e-mail].
x. If the display of lights and signals on the authorized structure is not otherwise
provided for by law, such lights and signals as may be prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard will
be installed and maintained by and at the expense of the Permittee.
y. It is possible that an authorized structure may be damaged by wave wash from
passing vessels. The issuance of this RGP does not relieve the Permittee from taking all proper
steps to ensure the integrity of the permitted structure and the safety of moored boats. The
Permittee will not hold the United States liable for any such damage.
z. Structures and their attendant utilities, authorized by this RGP, located on lands subject
to an easement in favor of the United States for the operation, maintenance, improvement, and
enlargement of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), will be removed at the expense of
the Permittee, in the event that, in the judgment of the Corps acting on behalf of the United
States, the lands are needed at any time for any purpose within the scope of the easement.
Permanent buildings will not be constructed within the easement.
aa. The Permittee must maintain any structure or work authorized by this RGP in good
condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this RGP. The Permittee is not
relieved of this requirement if the Permittee abandons the structure or work. Transfer in fee
simple of the work authorized by this RGP will automatically transfer this RGP to the property's
new owner, with all of the rights and responsibilities enumerated herein. The Permittee must
inform any subsequent owner of all activities undertaken under the authority of this RGP and
provide the subsequent owner with a copy of the terms and conditions of this RGP.
bb. At his/her sole discretion, any time during the processing cycle, the Wilmington
District Engineer may determine that this RGP will not be applicable to a specific proposal. In
such case, the procedures for processing an individual permit in accordance with 33 CFR 325
will be available.
cc. Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP,
all fill material placed in waters or wetlands shall be generated from an upland source and will be
clean and free of any pollutants except in trace quantities.
dd Except as authorized by this RGP or any Corps approved modification to this RGP,
all excavated material will be disposed of in approved upland disposal areas.
ee. Activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract
to commence in reliance upon this RGP will remain authorized provided the activity is
completed within twelve months of the date of the RGP's expiration, modification, or revocation.
Activities completed under the authorization of this RGP that were in effect at the time the
activity was completed continue to be authorized by the RGP.

SA Waters (3)(g) pH: shall be normal for waters in the area, which generally shall range
between 6.8 and 8.5 except that swamp waters may have a pH as low as 4.3 if it is the result of
natural conditions; (l) Turbidity: the turbidity in the receiving water shall not exceed 25 NTU; if
turbidity exceeds this level due to natural background conditions, the existing turbidity
level shall not be increased.
Citation: 15A NCAC 02B .0221
Justification: Surface water quality standards require that conditions of waters be suitable for all
best uses provided for in state rule [including, at minimum: aquatic life propagation, survival, and
maintenance of biological integrity (including fishing, fish, and Primary Nursery Areas (PNAs)),
wildlife, and secondary contact recreation]; and that activities must not cause water pollution that
precludes any best use on a short-term or long-term basis.

4. When applicable, all construction activities shall be performed and maintained in full
compliance with G.S. Chapter 113A Article 4 (Sediment and Pollution Control Act of 1973).
Regardless of applicability of the Sediment and Pollution Control Act, all projects shall
incorporate appropriate Best Management Practices for the control of sediment and erosion so
that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
Design, installation, operation, and maintenance of all sediment and erosion control measures
shall be equal to or exceed the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North
Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual, or for linear transportation projects, the North
Caroline Department of Transportation Sediment and Erosion Control Manual.
All devices shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil)
sites, including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project. Sufficient
materials required for stabilization and/or repair of erosion control measures and stormwater
routing and treatment shall be on site at all times.
For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures shall be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Surface Mining Manual. Reclamation measures and implementation shall comply with the
reclamation in accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act
and the Mining Act of 1971.
If the project occurs in waters or watersheds classified as Primary Nursery Areas (PNAs), SA,
WS-I, WS-II, High Quality Waters (HQW), or Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW), then the
sedimentation and erosion control designs shall comply with the requirements set forth in 15A
NCAC 04B .0124, Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds.

GUIDELINES FOR AVOIDING IMPACTS TO THE WEST INDIAN MANATEE
Precautionary Measures for Construction Activities in North Carolina Waters
The West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), also known as the Florida manatee, is
a Federally-listed endangered aquatic mammal protected under the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and the Marine Mammal Protection Act
of 1972, as amended (16 U.S.C 1461 et seq.). The manatee is also listed as endangered
under the North Carolina Endangered Species Act of 1987 (Article 25 of Chapter 113 of
the General Statutes). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is the lead Federal
agency responsible for the protection and recovery of the West Indian manatee under the
provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Adult manatees average 10 feet long and weigh about 2,200 pounds, although some
individuals have been recorded at lengths greater than 13 feet and weighing as much as
3,500 pounds. Manatees are commonly found in fresh, brackish, or marine water habitats,
including shallow coastal bays, lagoons, estuaries, and inland rivers of varying salinity
extremes. Manatees spend much of their time underwater or partly submerged, making
them difficult to detect even in shallow water. While the manatee’s principal stronghold in
the United States is Florida, the species is considered a seasonal inhabitant of North
Carolina with most occurrences reported from June through October.
To protect manatees in North Carolina, the Service’s Raleigh Field Office has prepared
precautionary measures for general construction activities in waters used by the species.
Implementation of these measure will allow in-water projects which do not require blasting
to proceed without adverse impacts to manatees. In addition, inclusion of these guidelines
as conservation measures in a Biological Assessment or Biological Evaluation, or as part
of the determination of impacts on the manatee in an environmental document prepared
pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act, will expedite the Service’s review of the
document for the fulfillment of requirements under Section 7 of the Endangered Species
Act. These measures include:
1. The project manager and/or contractor will inform all personnel associated with the
project that manatees may be present in the project area, and the need to avoid any harm
to these endangered mammals. The project manager will ensure that all construction
personnel know the general appearance of the species and their habit of moving about
completely or partially submerged in shallow water. All construction personnel will be
informed that they are responsible for observing water-related activities for the presence
of manatees.
2. The project manager and/or the contractor will advise all construction personnel that
there are civil and criminal penalties for harming, harassing, or killing manatees which are
protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.
3. If a manatee is seen within 100 yards of the active construction and/or dredging
operation or vessel movement, all appropriate precautions will be implemented to ensure
protection of the manatee. These precautions will include the immediate shutdown of
moving equipment if a manatee comes within 50 feet of the operational area of the
equipment. Activities will not resume until the manatee has departed the project area on
its own volition (i.e., it may not be herded or harassed from the area).
4. Any collision with and/or injury to a manatee will be reported immediately. The report
must be made to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (ph. 919.856.4520 ext. 16), the
National Marine Fisheries Service (ph. 252.728.8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission (ph. 252.448.1546).
5. A sign will be posted in all vessels associated with the project where it is clearly visible
to the vessel operator. The sign should state:
CAUTION: The endangered manatee may occur in these waters during the warmer
months, primarily from June through October. Idle speed is required if operating
this vessel in shallow water during these months. All equipment must be shut down
if a manatee comes within 50 feet of the vessel or operating equipment. A collision
with and/or injury to the manatee must be reported immediately to the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (919-856-4520 ext. 16), the National Marine Fisheries Service
(252.728.8762), and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
(252.448.1546).
6. The contractor will maintain a log detailing sightings, collisions, and/or injuries to
manatees during project activities. Upon completion of the action, the project manager will
prepare a report which summarizes all information on manatees encountered and submit
the report to the Service’s Raleigh Field Office.
7. All vessels associated with the construction project will operate at “no wake/idle” speeds
at all times while in water where the draft of the vessel provides less than a four foot
clearance from the bottom. All vessels will follow routes of deep water whenever possible.
8. If siltation barriers must be placed in shallow water, these barriers will be: (a) made of
material in which manatees cannot become entangled; (b) secured in a manner that they
cannot break free and entangle manatees; and, (c) regularly monitored to ensure that
manatees have not become entangl ed. Barriers will be placed in a manner to allow
manatees entry to or exit from essential habitat.
