Site Description
The applicants property is located the along sound side off NC 12 at the end of Island Creek
Drive in Avon, Dare County. The entire tract under development extends from NC 12 to
Pamlico Sound, and is bisected by Spencer Creek. For the purpose of this permit the area of
interest is confined to that portion of land located between Spencer Creek and the Pamlico
Sound, and consists of two parcels (referred to as Parcel A and Parcel B). The site is
accessed by a wooden bridge over Spencer Creek on Island Creek Drive. The total area of
the property in question is 6.8 acres (296,208 sq. ft.) and is bounded on three sides by
water. The northwest edge of the property abuts the Pamlico Sound, while the north eastern
portion of the tract abuts Spencer Creek. The average elevation of the property is
approximately 3.8' above Base Flood Elevation (BFE) and is in Flood Zone A(8').
Eight existing single family dwellings are serviced by a low pressure system located on the
east side of Spencer Creek. Five dwellings are located adjacent the Pamlico Sound and the
adjacent shoreline has been stabilized with a wooden bulkhead. With the exception of a small
wooded shed, no other structures are on the site. All development activities on the property
have been confined to the area directly west of the bridge.
The property is primarily high ground with several isolated pockets of "404" wetlands. There
is an extensive coastal wetland fringe along the shoreline. There is evidence of shoreline
erosion adjacent the bridge along Spencer Creek and according to the applicant an average of
two feet per year has been lost. Developed high ground areas are dominated by domestic
grasses while vegetation in the undeveloped high ground areas includes, but is not limited to,
Broom Sedge (Andropogon ssp.J, Sea Ox-eye orrichia frutescens , Wax Myrtle ftrica
cerifera , Red Cedar (Juniperus vriinians , and Marsh Elder ava frutescens . The high
ground graduates to coastal wetlands ranging from Salt Meadow Hay S ar ina Patens),
Black Needlerush Juncus roemerianus) to Salt Marsh Cord Grass S artina alterniflora).
Project Description
Island Creek Partners request a modification to CAMA Major Permit #19-89. CAMA Major
#19-89 was originally issued to Avon Soundside Partnership on January 31, 1989, and
authorized the construction of the bridge over Spencer Creek. The permit was later modified
on January 18, 1991, to include: 1) construction of 14 residential units, a 538' bulkhead and
associated driveways on the eastern section of the property; 2) expansion of the existing
bridge; and, 3) construction of a commercial retail/office building and associated parking and
septic system. The size of the tract, on the east side of Spencer Creek, at the time of the
issuance of the permit was estimated to be 5.36 acres, with a density of 2.61 units per acre.

Island Creek Partners
Bio Report
Page 3
On January 25, 1993, the permit was transferred to Island Creek Partners and again modified
to include eight 25' groins to be located along the Pamlico Sound. On March 24, 1992, a
second CAMA Major Permit (#33-92) was issued to Island Creek Partners for the
construction of additional bulkheading along Spencer Creek adjacent to the bridge, excavation
of a channel and boat basin, mooring pilings, dock, and boat ramp.
The applicants have acquired an additional 1.64 acres adjacent to the original site east of
Spencer Creek for a total of 6.80 acres. Under the current modification proposal the number
of single family dwellings will increase from 14 to 16 units, with a density decrease equaling
approximately 1/4 acre per single family dwelling. The density calculated does not reflect the
proposed construction of a clubhouse and swimming pool on the property. The final aspect of
the proposed modification will be the construction of an additional 402.68 linear feet of
bulkhead along Pamlico Sound that will extend to the mouth of Spencer Creek.
The total area of land disturbing activity will be approximately 2.10 acres (91,485 square
feet), of which approximately 14,000 square feet will occur within CAMA's Area of
Environmental Concern (AEC). No filling is proposed in coastal or "404" wetlands and is no
backfill has been requested in conjunction with the proposed bulkhead. Two of the proposed
dwellings will be constructed on pilings over 1,170 square feet of "404" wetlands. According
to the applicant's agent no land disturbing activity will occur in wetlands. It will be virtually
impossible to construct a dwelling without land disturbance. A comparison of the approved
plat and the proposed modification indicates a loss of "404" wetlands has occurred.
According to the permit (including all modifications), no "404" wetlands may be filled.
Anticipated Impacts
The modification, as proposed, will result in a total of 1.69 acres (73,779 square feet) of
impervious lot coverage. Impervious lot coverage within the AEC will be approximately .406
acres (17,709 square feet). Approximately 1,170 square feet of "404" wetlands will be
shaded by dwellings and may eventually be lost if current plats accurately reflect previously _
built over wetlands. The bulkhead, while proposed landward of the coastal wetland fringe
will result in some temporary degradation during construction. Development of previously
undisturbed areas will result in the degradation or loss of several species of naturally
occurring vegetation.
CAMA Review and Land Use Plan Consistency
No unique remnant species, geologic formations or archeological site are know to be
associated with this location.

According to the Land Use Plan, Dare County supports the installation and maintenance of
estuarine bulkheads (pg. 56). The County also supports the Corps of Engineers' Nationwide
permit program (pg. 60). It is the Corps policy to minimize or avoid unnecessary impacts to
"404" wetlands. Review of this project indicates that total avoidance of wetlands may be
possible. The Land Use Plan also states that occasional losses of "isolated pockets" of
wetlands is acceptable when the level of alteration is minimal (pg. 60). The proposed
development appears to meet Dare County's desire to maintain a "coastal village. atmosphere
by Land Use Planning techniques to guide the private sector market forces in the direction of
minimal commercialization with single family homes as a preferred type of development"
(pg. 80).
Based on my review it appears that the proposed modification, to CAMA Major Permit N19-
89, is consistent with the Dare County Land Use Plan.

SUBJECT: Major Modification Request for Island Partners CAMA Major Permit #19-89
DATE: March 1, 1996
Based on my review it appears that there may some loss of "404" wetlands in violation of the
state conditions of the permit. Wetlands previously delineated (plat dated 9/5/89) appear to be
inconsistent those shown on the current plat dated 1/23/96, this inconsistency should be resolved.
I would like to recommend approval of the major modification to CAMA Major Permit #19-89
subject to resolution of the above inconsistency and that the following conditions be place on the
permit modification:
1. No marsh grass will be excavated and/or filled.
2. The bulkhead will be constructed landward of coastal wetlands.
3. No wetlands will be filled, excavated or otherwise altered without
T
a modification of this permit.
a 4. The bulkhead must be solid and constructed of treated wood,
concrete slabs, metal sheet piles, or other suitable materials
approved by Department personnel. No excavation is permitted,
except for that which may be required for the construction of the
bulkhead wall. This permit does not authorize any excavation
waterward of the approved alignment.
? 5. The alignment of the proposed bulkhead must be staked by a
representative of the Division of Coastal Management (DCM)
within a maximum of thirty (30) days prior to the start of
construction. Failure to initiate construction within thirty (30)

SUBJECT: Island Creek Properties Major Modification of CAMA Major Permit #19-89
Specifically Regarding the Request to install a Bulkhead
DATE: March 14, 1996
My previous recommendations, submitted on March 1, 1996, suggested that the proposed
bulkhead be constructed landward of the wetland fringe, but I realized that such placement would
not stop erosion. The applicant proposes to construct a bulkhead along the mean high water line
in front of wetlands noted as "404". On March 14, 1996, I made a follow-up investigation of
the coastal wetland fringe at the Island Creek site. I believe that the extent of the coastal wetland
fringe is more than that reflected on the plat and as such warrants additional attention. Based on
the this recent inspection I would like to make additional comments and recommendations.
Although the adjacent wetland is primarily Black Needlerush, a bulkhead would remove the
water connection and thereby remove the classification as a coastal wetland. Once this occurs
we facilitate the loss of that resource. Based on this concern I would like to suggest an alternate
method to stabilized the applicants shoreline.
1) A rip rap structure; or,
2) construction of a marsh enhancement breakwater system.
Both of the above recommendations will afford protection while maintaining a water connection.
If a rip rap system is placed along the edge of the wetland fringe the applicant could still
maintain a narrow beach while protecting the wetlands.

SUBJECT: Island Creek Partnership x/ R"gk121
DATE: 18 March 1996
The following comments by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries are
provided pursuant to General Statute 113-131.
Spencer Creek and Pamlico Sound function as nursery areas for spot, croaker, weakfish,
spotted seatrout, flounder, blue crabs, and other commercially and recreationally important
species.
This agency expresses the following concerns with the proposed project. The proposed
402.68 linear feet of bulkhead will impact the adjacent wetlands, by restricting the tidal
exchange, thus impacting the functioning wetlands. Wetlands are of great importance serving
as sources of biological productivity and providing food directly and indirectly. Finally,
wetlands perform important roles in modifying acute impacts of hydrologic events, moderating
stormwater flows, trapping sediments, and providing nutrients for incorporation into resident
plants. In order to assure that this area may still function as a wetland, this agency would
recommend either a rip rap structure or a low breakwater system.
Even though the applicant states that no filling is proposed in coastal or "404" wetlands,
it is quite apparent from the existing permit and modifications that loss of "404" wetlands has
occurred. The proposed shading of —1,170 square feet of "404" wetlands by dwellings will
eventually be lost. It will be virtually impossible to construct a dwelling without impacts to the
wetlands since two are proposed. Based on the existing conditions on the site, violations of the
existing permit have occurred.

This agency approves of this project only if the bulkhead is replaced with either rip rap
or a low water breakwater. The discrepancies concerning the los of "404" wetlands should also

DATE: March 27, 1996
SUBJECT: CAMA major development permit and State dredge and fill permit application
review for Island Creek Partnership, Avon, Dare County.
Biologists on the Wildlife Resources Commission staff have reviewed this permit
application and are familiar with habitat values of the project area. A site visit was conducted on
March 26, 1996. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Coastal Area
Management Act (G.S. 113A-100 through 113A-128), as amended, and the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.)
The applicant requests a modification to CAMA Major Permit #19-89 to increase the
number of approved dwelling units from 14 to 16, construct a club house and swimming pool, and
bulkhead 402.68 linear feet of shoreline located between Spencer Creek and Pamlico Sound in
Avon, Dare County. The project as proposed would result in the shading of 1,170 ftZ of 404
wetlands and include 91,485 ft2 of upland grading. Areas of environmental concern (AECs) on
the project site include: public trust (PT), estuarine water (EW), estuarine shoreline (ES) and
coastal wetlands (CW). Water classification is SA.
Although the permit specifically states that no 404 wetlands will be filled, approximately
1,170 ftZ of wetlands will be shaded and subsequently lost. Wetlands such as those found on this
site provide functions which benefit the public as well as fish and wildlife. Wetlands act as a
stormwater runoff purification zone between upland areas and surface waters. Wetlands store and
convey flood waters and provide shoreline erosion protection through attenuation of wave

energy. Wetlands also serve as a physical habitat for numerous species of amphibians, reptiles,
birds, and mammals. In some instances, wetlands serve as a spawning and nursery area for
anadromous fish. Through deposition of detritus into adjacent waters, wetlands contribute large
quantities of organic carbon, forming the food chain base and the resulting biological productivity
for many aquatic ecosystems.
We have concluded that no freshwater fishery resources will be directly impacted by the
project as proposed. However, because estuarine and freshwater ecosystems overlap
considerably in the Albemarle -Pamlico Sound region, and significant biological interactions occur
between estuarine and freshwater fishes, there may be effects from this project which cumulatively
and indirectly affect freshwater fishery resources. Due to these factors, the Wildlife Resources
Commission will support recommendations by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries concerning
this project which address protection of estuarine water quality and fishery resources.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide input into this permit application review. If you
need further information on these comments, please contact Chad Thomas, District 1 Fisheries
Biologist at (919)3354961.

RE: Island Creek
Avon - Dare County
Dear Sirs, Mr. and Mrs. Hooper, and Mr. and Mrs. Finch:
As an agency involved in the Division of Coastal
Management's major permit application review process, we have
determined that more than one acre will be disturbed by the
activities as described. Therefore, in addition to a permit from
the Division of Coastal Management, an erosion and sedimentation
control plan must be submitted to and approved by this office
before development begins.
The requiring of an erosion and sedimentation control plan
is based on a mandatory standard for land -disturbing activity of
the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 [NCGS 113A-57(4)
and 113A-54(d)(4)], which states:
No person shall initiate any land -disturbing activity, if at
least one acre is to be uncovered, unless an erosion and
sedimentation control plan for the activity is filed with
the agency having jurisdiction and approved.
The plan must be submitted at least thirty (30) days prior
to project commencement. The plan must include, but is not
limited to, the following:
1. A scaled plat plan of the site, showing the affected
areas as well as adjacent properties which may be
affected. Include contours if available.
2. Indicate critical areas such as wetlands, creeks,
streams, drainageways, marsh, etc.

3. Include a brief narrative describing the activities to
be undertaken and a construction schedule.
4. Indicate on the plat the measures to be utilized to
prevent sediment from entering adjacent properties,
such as location of silt fences, silt basins, diversion
ditches, areas to be seeded, etc.
5. Include seeding and mulching specifications for both
temporary and permanent stabilization.
6. Include any other pertinent information directed at
controlling offsite sedimentation, slope degradation,
and erosion.
Please be advised that the plan will be considered
incomplete, and the statutory review period will not begin,
unless a non-refundable plan review processing fee, payable by
check or money order made out to the Department of Environment,
Health and.Natural Resources, is included. The amount of the fee
is based on $30 for the first disturbed or affected acre, plus
$20 for each additional whole or fractional acre of land to be
disturbed (including offsite borrow or waste areas).
To begin this project without the approval of an erosion/
sedimentation control plan will be considered a violation of the
Act and may lead to the assessment of a civil penalty of up to
$500.00 per day for each day the project is deemed in violation.
For your convenience, we are enclosing a guideline for
developing a plan. If you should have any questions, feel free
to contact me.

driveways, 2 retention ponds and a pool to be acceptable and
hereby issue this LETTER OF APPROVAL .
The Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (copy available upon
request) established a program requiring a project owner or
developer to protect adjoining natural resources and properties,
both during and after construction, from the effects of
accelerated erosion. This program is performance oriented. It
is your responsibility to understand and comply with the
requirements of the Act.
In addition to any listed modifications or conditions, the
following also apply to the approved plan:
-- an erosion and sedimentation control plan is
only valid for 3 years following the date of
initial approval, if no land -disturbing
activity has been undertaken;
-- a copy of the latest approved soil erosion and
control plan must be on file at the job site;

-- a buffer zone, sufficient to restrain visible
sedimentation, must be provided and maintained
between the land -disturbing activity and any
adjacent property or watercourse; ,
-- new or affected slopes must be at an angle
that can be retained by vegetative cover;
-- barren slopes must be provided with a ground
cover sufficient to restrain erosion within 30
working days of completion of any phase
(rough.or final) of grading (RYE GRASS IS NOT
in the approved seeding specifications nor is
it an ACCEPTABLE substitute for the providing
of a ground cover);
-- a permanent ground cover, sufficient to
restrain erosion, must be provided within the
shorter of 30 working or 120 calendar days
after completion of construction or
development; and
-- this approval is not automatically transferred
with a change in project ownership.
Be advised that to ensure compliance with the approved plan
and the program requirements, unannounced periodic inspections
will be made. If the implemented plan is determined to be
inadequate, this office may require that it be revised to comply
with state law. Failure to comply with any part of the approved
plan or with any requirements of this, program, could result in
the taking of appropriate legal action against the financially
responsible party (Island Creek Partners). One option is the
assessing of a civil penalty of up to $500 per day for each day
the site is out of compliance.
. In recognizing the desirability of early coordination of
sedimentation control, we believe it would be beneficial for you
and your contractor to arrange a preconstruction conference to
discuss the requirements of the approved erosion and
sedimentation control plan. It would be appreciated if you would
contact this office to advise Richard Peed (ext. 374) of the
construction start-up date, contractor and an onsite contact
person or complete and return the attached Project Information
sheet to the above named.

The land -disturbing activity described in this plan may
require approval or permitting from other Federal, State or local
agencies. These could include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
under Article 404 jurisdiction, the Division of Environmental
Management under water quality regulations (contact Bill Moore,

Dear Sir:
This letter is with reference to your application for a Coastal Area Management Act
Major Development permit to carry out construction on property located off NC 12 and Island
Creek Drive, between Spencer Creek and Pamlico Sound, Avon, Dare County. Although
processing of the application is nearing completion, additional time is needed for this office to
complete the review and make a decision on your request. Therefore, it is necessary that the
standard review time be extended. An additional 75 days is provided by G.S. 113A-122(c) which
would make July 9, 1996 the new deadline for reaching a decision on your request. However,
we expect to take action prior to that time and will do so as soon as possible. In the interim, if
you have any question on the status of your application, do not hesitate to contact this office.
Very sincerely,

Dear Mr. Lassiter:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application
for State approval for development of property located off NC 12 and Island Creek Drive,
between Spencer Creek and Pamlico Sound, Avon, Dare County. It was received on
February 10, 1996, and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected
deadline for making a decision is April 25, 1996. An additional 75-day review period is
provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been
notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review
period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an
extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of
the proposed development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard
which must be posted at the property of your proposed development. You should post this
notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from a public
road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the
road right-of-way fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a
private road would lead one into your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an
incomplete application.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will
be contacted by the appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any

Re: Major CAMA Permit Application
Island Creek - Avon, Dare County, NC
Dear Mr. Watts:
The purpose of this letter is for Quible and Associates, P.C., on behalf of the property owners, Island Creek
Partners, J. R. Hooper, Olin E. Finch, and G. C. Finch, to make application for a CAMA Major Development
Permit. The subject property is an approximately 6.8 acre tract of land divided into parcels A and B. The
project is located adjacent to Spencers Creek and the Pamlico Sound off NC 12 in Avon, Dare County,
North Carolina. The development proposed is a redesign of an existing project where additional land was
included to reduce overall development density. The original CAMA Permit showed 14 units. With the
addition of parcel A the number of units has been increased to 16 but the overall density has been
decreased. The development proposed is the construction of 8 single family residences with an associated
clubhouse and swimming pooL Also proposed are associated roads and an expansion of the bulkhead system
along the shoreline. Enclosed with this correspondence is the Major CAMA Permit Application, a plan view
plat which indicates the development proposed, copies of letters to adjacent riparian property owners and a
check for $250.00 made out the Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources to cover the
cost of processing the permit application.
We request on behalf of the property owners that you review the enclosed information and initiate the
formal review process. If you have questions or need additional information please contact me at
919-261-3300. If you would like to have an on -site meeting concerning this project please let me know. We
further request that all correspondence and agency comments be forwarded to this office at the address on
this letter head.

The purpose of this letter is for Quible and Associates, P.C, to request your
field report and all agency comments relative to the review of the Major CAMA
Permit application that our firm has submitted on behalf of Mr. John Hooper and
Mr. and Ms. Olin and Georgia C. Finch for the Island Creek Project in Avon, Dare
County, North Carolina. Based on my 3/18/96 telephone conversation with Mr.
Raleigh Bland of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), your field report
Indicates that the wetlands line on the CAMA plat is inconsistent with the
approved 404 wetlands plat for the property. My review of the plat submitted to
you with the Major CAMA Permit application indicates that the wetlands line
represented on that plat is consistent with the current and approved COE Section
404 wetlands line. The wetlands line indicated has been the approved line for
the property since at least 1992 and has been reconfirmed by the Corps in the
last month. I am therefore concerned that your assessment of the project may be
misleading to the review agencies and bias their decision on the project. I know
that Mr. Bland had a misconception based on his review of your report.
Thank you for your attention to this request. Please forward your field report
and reports from other review agencies at your earliest convenience. I will
review these materials and be in touch.
Sincerely yours,
ible nd sociates, P.C.
