8. Project summery The applicant is proposing to conduct excavation within an existing
manmade basin and build a new boathouse and bulkhead.

Environmental settin
The applicant owns an irregular shaped lot adjacent to the Pamlico River and
Browns Gut in Beaufort County. Browns Gut, the project site, appears to have
been historically excavated, giving it the appearance of a manmade basin. On
the north side of the basin are extensive marsh areas (not on the applicant's
property). On the south side of the basin (the applicant's property), the area
has been historically filled and is vegetated with mostly upland grasses,
however there is a sparse fringe of mixed marsh (S a—rtina cnosur�oides, Spartina
patens, Distichlis s�, growing atop relic spoil piles, ilfhis marsh has
recently een i e by the applicant with a herbicide.
Located within the gut is an old deteriorated boathouse. The water depths within
the gut in the vicinity of the boathouse average + 1.0' to + 2.0' below NWL.
Project proposal
The applicant is proposing the following:
(1) To remove the existing boathouse and replace it with a new 30' x 26' open -
sided boathouse.
(2) Excavate an area in the vicinity of the new boathouse. The excavated area
is + 120' by + 40' and to a depth of -4' at normal water. All spoils are to be
placed landward of the proposed bulkhead (see no. 3).
(3) The construction of 109' of bulkhead. The bulkhead will be placed an average
of + 1' beyond the NWL.
Environmental impact
The project as proposed should have a minimal environmental impact.
+ 400 sq.ft. of mixed marsh will be filled when spoils from the basin are placed
Tandward of the proposed bulkhead. As previously stated, this marsh is sparse
and is growing atop relic spoil piles.

j NARRATIVE
Edward J. Cozart Project
Beaufort County
(Island View Shores)
The proposal is to disassemble and remove the old Boat
House structure as it currently exists. Material from this old
structure will be hauled to the land fill by truck and discarded.
After all wood and metal have been removed from the site, a dragline
will be positioned on the south side of the boat basin to excavate
the erroded material from the basin for approximately 40 to 45 feet
from the existing bank. The spoil will be placed on the back side of
the fill area whereby material will not wash into the water. After
the completion of the basin excavation, a bulkhead will be constructed
with treated wood. The bulkhead is designed to be constructed two (2)
feet above mean high water and will be supported by tie -backs and
deadman anchors.
After the completion of the bulkhead, anew boat house is
planned to replace the old one. The new structure will be 30 feet
wide by 26 feet in depth; it will be attached to the bulkhead and
will be supported by treated piling, covered by a metal roof, and will
have half sides for protection from wind and rain. The back of the
boat house will remain open for boat access and storage.
The spoil will be graded, following a sufficient drying
period, over the entire spoil area as shown on Attachment "A". The
deepest section will be adjacent to the bulkhead, little less than
two feet - note Attachment "C". The site will then be prepared for
grassing.
The entire project will require approximately one month with
the exception of grassing which may require additional drying time.

Reference the application of Mr. Edward J. Cozart, Jr., for a
Department of the Army permit to excavate a basin, construct and
backfill a bulkhead and construct an open -sided boathouse off the
Pamlico River, Pinecrest, Beaufort County, North Carolina.
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
State authorization:
a. The bulkhead will be positioned in strict accordance with
the permit plans. it will not be aligned farther waterward that
an average of 1 foot from the normal water elevation contour.
b. All excavated materials will be confined landward of the
normal water level elevation contour or the permitted bulkhead.
c. Excavation will not exceed 4 feet below the elevation of
normal water.
d. The temporary placement or double handling of excavated or
fill materials within waters or vegetated wetlands is not
authorized.
e. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good
condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this

-2—
permit. The permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he
abandons the permitted structure without having it transferred to
a third party.
f. 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 are not
considered significant.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Ken Jolly,
