St James Oyster Shell Recycling & Reef Building Project
Project Narrative:
Existing Conditions:
On August 6 - 7, 2007, 21 cubic yards of bagged oyster shells were placed in 2-reefs on the south side of the St James'
Waterway Park, approximately 200' walk to the Gazebo in the ICW. They are designated as "UNCW Research Sanctuary."
Planning, approval, and on -site visits included Stephen Taylor, DMF; Ted Wilges, NC Coastal Federation, Craig Hardy, DE&NR;
Dr. Martin Posey, UNCW; Troy Alphin, UNCW, Sabrina Vamam, DMF. About 90 St James Citizen Scientists participated in
bagging and placing the bagged shells over a 3-day period. The reefs have been fully supported by the UNCW team led by Troy
Alphin, UNCW Senior Research Associate and his students in our St James intern program, as well as St James Citizen
Scientists.
St James Waterway Park is at 100 Southeast Street off St James Drive about 4-miles from the front gate on route 211
(Southport -Supply Road). Waterway Park is a Protected Area covered under the 2008 RDC Wetlands Covenants.
These reefs have proven to serve as a wildlife habitat, a means to prevent erosion, and a way to clean our waters at the 30-50
gallons of water per day as oysters have credit for providing. UNCW Interns regularly measure the wildlife found in the reefs and
larvae attaching to the shells. Additionally, "spat racks" are employed to further measure spat found in the ICW.
There are no pollution incidents to our knowledge; there is no development other than a pavilion, a covered facility with picnic
tables; there are no streams in the park entering the ICW; there are no riparian buffers, or areas of environmental concern.
On April 20, 2011,Earth Day, we gained approval to plant 190 Spartina patens (110), Spartina altemiflora (40), Kosteletzkya
virginica (20), and Hibiscus moscheutus (20) in the area on the west side of the north reef and on the north side of the gazebo
walkway. The Spartina has done extremely well, but the flowers did not survive. Troy Alphin and Ted Wilges provided guidance,
and assistance in planning this activity. Another 500 Spartina Patins were planted on July 18, 2013.
For the last 4-years, St James has hosted the UNCW Ocean 17 campers for a day to assist in building our reefs. Loose shells
have been placed in Beaver Dam Creek where 2-additional UNCW Research Sanctuaries have been designated.
St James is a community committed to the protection of our natural resources. Our Citizen Scientists volunteers extensively on
these projects and many others. In 2013, 12 youth from The Southport Boys and Girls Cloiq our program to reach out
to our community's children. The same invitation will be extended this year; as will one t lo''""c�va coutin Organizations.
Proposed: JUN 0 9 2014
Our request for approval is: (Each reef will be 2-mesh bags high, anchored by rebar cut fthsb(4rrgpended by UNCW)
• Build reef #3, about 28' x 5' x 18", on the south side of the gazebo between the existing 2-reefs with bagged shells — July
17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). This reef will protect the marsh from wave action but provide gaps to allow access by
finfish and crustaceans that utilize the marsh edge. (See Figure 1 and 2)
• Add reef #4, about 28' x 5' x 18" on the north side of the walkway to the gazebo —This reef will be used to protect the
existing and proposed marsh plantings from erosion. (see figure 1 and 3)
• Add additional Spartina plantings about both 20' x 10' — July 17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). North and south of the
walkway and gazebo to fill in gaps remaining from previous marsh loss.

1,.

The Town of St James has purchased about 125 bushels of oyster shells that are stored at UNCW - CMS. Our scoping plan will
determine the additional shells needed.
No acreage will be disturbed as shells will be transported on the gazebo walkway and placed on a slide to the water at low tide,
as we did previously. Funding will be from the Town of St James annual budget designated for this project with our partnership
with UNCW.
Thank you,

Figure 1. Proposed reef #3 is located on the south side of the walkway and gazebo. This structure will provide protection to the
currently unprotected marsh between the previously placed reefs but will not fill the entire, leaving -1-2m of space between the
proposed reef and the existing structures.
Proposed reef #4 will protect the marsh plantings on the north side of the walkway and gazebo from boat wakes, to prevent
further erosion of the site.

Dear Mr. Noland:
John E. Skvana, III
Secretary
The Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources received a copy of the
CAMA Major Permit Application for the subject project on June 5, 2014. Staff review of the plans and specifications
has determined that the development activities proposed at this time will not pose a threat to surface water quality
from stormwater runoff. The Director has determined that projects that are reviewed and approved by the Division as
not posing a water quality threat from stormwater runoff should not be subject to the stormwater management
permitting requirements of 15A NCAC 2H.1000, the stormwater rules. By copy of this letter, we are informing you that
this project will not require a stormwater management permit.
If the subject project disturbs one acre or more and has a point source discharge of stormwater runoff, then it is also
subject to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater discharge requirements. You
are required to have an NPDES permit for stormwater discharge from projects meeting these criteria. All temporary
built -upon area associated with the construction of the project must be removed within 30 days of completion of the
project, or when it is no longer needed, whichever occurs first.
If you have any questions or need additional information concerning this matter please contact Linda Lewis at (910)
796-7215, or e-mail her at linda.lewis ftodenrgov.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is located at the 100 Southeast Street SE, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIWW), in the Town of St. James Plantation, Brunswick County. To find the project site travel south on
US Highway 17 to NC Highway 133 South. Travel approximately 22 miles south on NC-133 to Dosher
Cutoff SE/ NC-133.Turn onto Dosher Cutoff and then turn right at Southport -Supply Rd. SE/ NC-133.
Travel approximately 3.25 miles to the entrance of St. James Plantation. Turn left into St. James Plantation
and follow St. James Drive SE to its end. Take a right at the roundabout and make the first left into
Waterway Park. Please note that St. James Plantation is a gated community and a site visit should be
arranged with the applicant.prior to your visit to guarantee access to the site.
The project area is located adjacent to a 9.88 acre public park. The shoreline of the park has not been
stabilized. The elevation of the tract is approximately 10' above normal high water. High ground vegetation
on the tract consists primarily of lawn grasses and ornamental plantings. The highground portion of the park
area has a gravel parking lot, gazebo/picnic area with restrooms, and walking trails. A pier with two covered
gazebos and a floating dock with kayak launch provide water access. Two existing oyster bag sills are
located to the west of the pier. Marsh vegetation consists of Black Needlerush (Juncus roemerianus)
Spikegrass (Distichlis spicata), Glasswort (Salicornia spp), Salt Meadow Hay (Spartina patens), and Sea
Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens) above mean high water, which measures approximately 90' in width. A fringe
of Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina alterniora) continues below the mean high water line and measures
approximately 45' in width.
The waters of the AIW W, adjacent to the project site, are classified as SB by the North Carolina Division of
Water Resources. The area is designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine
Fisheries and is closed to the harvesting of shellfish.
i• �. Zi�9���:i�aJ�C�1E
The applicant is proposing to construct two bagged oyster shell sills and to plant Spartina alternii fora
landward of both sills. The first sill would be located between the two existing sills to the west of the pier.
The second sill would be located to the east of the pier. Each of the sills would measure approximately 28' in
length, 5' in width and approximately 18" in height. Both sills would be comprised of two layers of mesh
bagged oyster shells. Both sills would be located between the mean high and normal low water lines. Each of
the two Spartina altern j2ora planting areas would measure approximately 20' in length by 10' in width and
would also be located between the mean high and normal low water lines, landward of the two proposed
sills. The sills would be located approximately 55' waterward of the mean high water line and 'approximately
10' waterward of the edge of marsh. No high ground work is proposed. The applicant has stated that the
bagged shells will be trucked to the site at time of construction and will be transported by hand via the pier to
the construction area.
10. ANTICIPATED MACTS:
The proposed oyster shell bagged sills would result in the fill of approximately 280 square feet of shallow
bottom located in the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of Environmental Concern (AECs). The
marsh plantings would result in temporary impacts to approximately 400 square feet of Estuarine Waters and
Public Trust Area. Temporary increases in turbidity can be expected.

St James Oyster Shell Recycling & Reef Building Project
Project Narrative:
Existing Conditions:
On August 6 - 7, 2007, 21 cubic yards of bagged oyster shells were placed in 2-reefs on the south side of the St James'
Waterway Park, approximately 200' walk to the Gazebo in the ICW. They are designated as "UNCW Research Sanctuary."
Planning, approval, and on -site visits included Stephen Taylor, DMF; Ted Wilges, NC Coastal Federation, Craig Hardy, DE&NR;
Dr. Martin Posey, UNCW; Troy Alphin, UNCW, Sabrina Varnam, DMF. About 90 St James Citizen Scientists participated in
bagging and placing the bagged shells over a 3-day period. The reefs have been fully supported by the UNCW team led by Troy
Alphin, UNCW Senior Research Associate and his students in our St James intern program, as well as St James Citizen
Scientists.
St James Waterway Park is at 100 Southeast Street off St James Drive about 4-miles from the front gate on route 211
(Southport -Supply Road). Waterway Park is a Protected Area covered under the 2008 RDC Wetlands Covenants.
These reefs have proven to serve as a wildlife habitat, a means to prevent erosion, and a way to clean our waters at the 30-50
gallons of water per day as oysters have credit for providing. UNCW Interns regularly measure the wildlife found in the reefs and
larvae attaching to the shells. Additionally, "spat racks" are employed to further measure spat found in the ICW.
There are no pollution incidents to our knowledge; there is no development other than a pavilion, a covered facility with picnic
tables; there are no streams in the park entering the ICW; there are no riparian buffers, or areas of environmental concern.
On April 20, 2011,Earth Day, we gained approval to plant 190 Spartina patens (110), Spartina alterniflora (40), Kosteletzkya
virginica (20), and Hibiscus moscheutus (20) in the area on the west side of the north reef and on the north side of the gazebo
walkway. The Spartina has done extremely well, but the flowers did not survive. Troy Alphin and Ted Wilges provided guidance,
and assistance in planning this activity. Another 500 Spartina Patins were planted on July 18, 2013.
For the last 4-years, St James has hosted the UNCW Ocean 17 campers for a day to assist in building our reefs. Loose shells
have been placed in Beaver Dam Creek where 2-additional UNCW Research Sanctuaries have been designated.
St James is a community committed to the protection of our natural resources. Our Citizen Scientists volunteers extensively on
these projects and many others. In 2013, 12 youth from The Southport Boys and Girls Club joined s i our rogram to reach out
to our community's children. The same invitation will be extended this year; as will one to Th ` IM,,Organizations.
Proposed: (JUN 17 2014
}
Our request for approval is: (Each reef will be 2-mesh bags high, anchored by rebar cut flush, as � by UNCW)
• Build reef #3, about 28' x 5' x 18", on the south side of the gazebo between the existing i fs wU bagged shells — July
17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). This reef will protect the marsh from wave action but provide gaps to allow access by
finfish and crustaceans that utilize the marsh edge. (See Figure 1 and 2)
• Add reef #4, about 28' x 5' x 18" on the north side of the walkway to the gazebo —This reef will be used to protect the
existing and proposed marsh plantings from erosion. (see figure 1 and 3)
• Add additional Spartina plantings about both 20' x 10' — July 17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). North and south of the
walkway and gazebo to fill in gaps remaining from previous marsh loss.

The Town of St James has purchased about 125 bushels of oyster shells that are stored at UNCW — CMS. Our scoping plan will
determine the additional shells needed.
No acreage will be disturbed as shells will be transported on the gazebo walkway and placed on a slide to the water at low tide,
as we did previously. Funding will be from the Town of St James annual budget designated for this project with our partnership
with UNCW.
Thank you,

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is located at the 100 Southeast Street SE, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIWW), in the Town of St. James Plantation, Brunswick County. To find the project site travel south on
US Highway 17 to NC Highway 133 South. Travel approximately 22 miles south on NC-133 to Dosher
Cutoff SE/ NC-133.Turn onto Dosher Cutoff and then turn right at Southport -Supply Rd. SE/ NC-133.
Travel approximately 3.25 miles to the entrance of St. James Plantation. Turn left into St. James Plantation
and follow St. James Drive SE to its end. Take a right at the roundabout and make the first left into
Waterway Park. Please note that St. James Plantation is a gated community and a site visit should be
arranged with the applicant.prior to your visit to guarantee access to the site.
The project area is located adjacent to a 9.88 acre public park. The shoreline of the park has not been
stabilized. The elevation of the tract is approximately 10' above normal high water. High ground vegetation
on the tract consists primarily of lawn grasses and ornamental plantings. The highground portion of the park
area has a gravel parking lot, gazebo/picnic area with restrooms, and walking trails. A pier with two covered
gazebos and a floating dock with kayak launch provide water access. Two existing oyster bag sills are
located to the west of the pier. Marsh vegetation consists of Black Needlerush (Juncos roemerianus)
Spikegrass (Distichlis spicata), Glasswort (Salicornia spp), Salt Meadow Hay (Spartina patens), and Sea
Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens) above mean high water, which measures approximately 90' in width. A fringe
of Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina altern j7ora) continues below the mean high water line and measures
approximately 45' in width.
The waters of the AIW W, adjacent to the project site, are classified as SB by the North Carolina Division of
Water Resources. The area is designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine
Fisheries and is closed to the harvesting of shellfish.
The applicant is proposing to construct two bagged oyster shell sills and to plant Spartina alterniora
landward of both sills. The first sill would be located between the two existing sills to the west of the pier.
The second sill would be located to the east of the pier. Each of the sills would measure approximately 28' in
length, 5' in width and approximately 18" in height. Both sills would be comprised of two layers of mesh
bagged oyster shells. Both sills would be located between the mean high and normal low water lines. Each of
the two Spartina altern j2ora planting areas would measure approximately 20' in length by 10' in width and
would also be located between the mean high and normal low water lines, landward of the two proposed
sills. The sills would be located approximately 55' waterward of the mean high water line and approximately
10' waterward of the edge of marsh. No high ground work is proposed. The applicant has stated that the
bagged shells will be trucked to the site at time of construction and will be transported by hand via the pier to
the construction area.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed oyster shell bagged sills would result in the fill of approximately 280 square feet of shallow
bottom located in the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of Environmental Concern (AECs). The
marsh plantings would result in temporary impacts to approximately 400 square feet of Estuarine Waters and
Public Trust Area. Temporary increases in turbidity can be expected.

DCM-MHDCny
On August 6 - 7, 2007, 21 cubic yards of bagged oyster shells were placed in 2-reefs on the south side of the St James'
Waterway Park, approximately 200' walk to the Gazebo in the ICW. They are designated as "UNCW Research Sanctuary."
Planning, approval, and on -site visits included Stephen Taylor, DMF; Ted Wilges, NC Coastal Federation, Craig Hardy, DE&NR;
Dr. Martin Posey, UNCW; Troy Alphin, UNCW, Sabrina Vamam, DMF. About 90 St James Citizen Scientists participated in
bagging and placing the bagged shells over a 3-day period. The reefs have been fully supported by the UNCW team led by Troy
Alphin, UNCW Senior Research Associate and his students in our St James intern program, as well as St James Citizen
Scientists.
St James Waterway Park is at 100 Southeast Street off St James Drive about 4-miles from the front gate on route 211
(Southport -Supply Road). Waterway Park is a Protected Area covered under the 2008 RDC Wetlands Covenants.
These reefs have proven to serve as a wildlife habitat, a means to prevent erosion, and a way to clean our waters at the 30-50
gallons of water per day as oysters have credit for providing. UNCW Interns regularly measure the wildlife found in the reefs and
larvae attaching to the shells. Additionally, "spat racks" are employed to further measure spat found in the ICW.
There are no pollution incidents to our knowledge; there is no development other than a pavilion, a covered facility with picnic
tables; there are no streams in the park entering the ICW; there are no riparian buffers, or areas of environmental concern.
On April 20, 2011,Earth Day, we gained approval to plant 190 Spartina patens (110), Spartina alterniflora (40), Kosteletzkya
virginica (20), and Hibiscus moscheutus (20) in the area on the west side of the north reef and on the north side of the gazebo
walkway. The Spartina has done extremely well, but the flowers did not survive. Troy Alphin and Ted Wilges provided guidance,
and assistance in planning this activity. Another 500 Spartina Patins were planted on July 18, 2013.
For the last 4-years, St James has hosted the UNCW Ocean 17 campers for a day to assist in building our reefs. Loose shells
have been placed in Beaver Dam Creek where 2-additional UNCW Research Sanctuaries have been designated.
St James is a community committed to the protection of our natural resources. Our Citizen Scientists volunteers extensively on
these projects and many others. In 2013, 12 youth from The Southport Boys and Girls Club joined us in our program to reach out
to our community's children. The same invitation will be extended this year; as will one to The local Scouting Organizations.
Proposed:
Our request for approval is: (Each reef will be 2-mesh bags high, anchored by rebar cut flush, as recommended by UNCW)
• Build reef #3, about 28' x 5' x 18", on the south side of the gazebo between the existing 2-reefs with bagged shells — July
17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). This reef will protect the marsh from wave action but provide gaps to allow access by
finfish and crustaceans that utilize the marsh edge. (See Figure 1 and 2)
• Add reef #4, about 28' x 5' x 18" on the north side of the walkway to the gazebo —This reef will be used to protect the
existing and proposed marsh plantings from erosion. (see figure 1 and 3)
• Add additional Spartina plantings about both 20' x 10' — July 17, 2014 (Ocean17 Campers). North and south of the
walkway and gazebo to fill in gaps remaining from previous marsh loss.

The Town of St James has purchased about 125 bushels of oyster shells that are stored at UNCW — CMS. Our scoping plan will
determine the additional shells needed.
No acreage will be disturbed as shells will be transported on the gazebo walkway and placed on a slide to the water at low tide,
as we did previously. Funding will be from the Town of St James annual budget designated for this project with our partnership
With UNCW.

Figure 1. Proposed reef #3 is located on the south side of the walkway and gazebo. This structure .will provide protection to the
currently unprotected marsh between the previously placed reefs but will not fill the entire, leaving —1-2m of space between the
proposed reef and the existing structures.
Proposed reef #4 will protect the marsh plantings on the north side of the walkway and gazebo from boat wakes, to prevent
further erosion of the site.

Recommendations for State Permit- St. James Plantation POA, c/o Jack Noland 6/4/14
Y
It is the opinion of this office that the proposed work is consistent with the Use Standards for Estuarine
Waters and Public Trust Areas, as set forth in NCAC 07H .0206 & .0207 and the General Use Standards in
07H .0208(a). In the absence of any concerns from the commenting agencies, it is recommended that a
permit be issued subject to the following conditions:
1. The alignment of the offshore sill shall be staked by the permittee and approved by a representative
of the Division of Coastal Management within a maximum of 30 days prior to the start of any
construction.
2. The authorized offshore sill shall adhere to the alignment depicted on the attached workplan
drawings.
3. The sills shall be marked at ench end of the structures with tallow reflectors extending at least three
feet above the normal high water line.
4. The sill material shall be free from loose dirt of any pollutant. The material shall be of a size
sufficient to prevent their movement from the approved alignment by wave or current action.
5. This permit does not authorize the placement of any backfill material behind the authorized
structures.
6. The plantings shall take place in accordance with the project narrative dated and the attached
workplan drawings.
7. No open water areas shall be filled outside of the alignment depicted on the attached workplan

Here are federal conditions for the St James Oyster sill project. A hard copy is coming in
the mail.
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
http://www.fws.gov/nc-es/mammal/manatee_guidelines.pdf.
2. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
attached 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.
3. 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 authorized
representative, said structure or work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free
navigation of the navigable waters, the permittee will be required, upon due notice from the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 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, relocation, or alteration.
4. Approval of the structure is based on determinations that there would be no obstruction
to navigation. The structure may be damaged by wave wash from passing vessels. Issuance of
this permit should not be construed, as relieving the permittee of taking proper steps to
insure the structure and moored boats will not be damaged by wave wash.
5. 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. 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.
7. 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 Quality at (919) 733-
5083, Ext. 526 or [phone] and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and
Hazardous Substances Control Act will be followed.
8. The authorized structure and associated activity must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States. 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 reason other than safety.
1

9. 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].
10. 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.
11. 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.
12. 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).
13. 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.
14. 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.
15. 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

Subject: Consistency Determination, Major Permit Application, St. James
Plantation POA — Brunswick County
Date: July 16, 2014
This project is consistent with the 2007 Brunswick County Land Use Plan Update.
The applicant proposes to construct two oyster bag sills and to plant wetland vegetation.
The project is located at 100 Southeast St. SE (Waterway Park) in St. James Plantation,
Brunswick County.
Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's) impacted by the proposal are EW and PT.
Waters at the project site are classified as SB 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 Brunswick County Land Use Plan
and offer the following comments.
The general area of the project is classified as Conservation
In general, Brunswick County allows development in Conservation classified AECs
which is consistent with the State's minimum use standards. The Brunswick County
Land Use Plan contains some policies, which exceed the State's minimum use standards.
However, none of these standards appear to be applicable to this proposal.
This project is consistent and not in conflict with the 2007 Brunswick County Land Use
Plan.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is located at the 100 Southeast Street SE, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIW W), in the Town of St. James Plantation, Brunswick County. To find the project site travel south on
US Highway 17 to NC Highway 133 South. Travel approximately 22 miles south on NC-133 to Dosher
Cutoff SE/ NC-133.Tum onto Dosher Cutoff and then turn right at Southport -Supply Rd. SE/ NC-133.
Travel approximately 3.25 miles to the entrance of St. James Plantation. Turn left into St. James Plantation
and follow St. James Drive SE to its end. Take a right at the roundabout and make the first left into
Waterway Park. Please note that St. James Plantation is a gated community and a site visit should be
arranged with the applicant prior to your visit to guarantee access to the site.
The project area is located adjacent to a 9.88 acre public park. The shoreline of the park has not been
stabilized. The elevation of the tract is approximately 10' above normal high water. High ground vegetation
on the tract consists primarily of lawn grasses and ornamental plantings. The highground portion of the park
area has a gravel parking lot, gazebo/picnic area with restrooms, and walking trails. A pier with two covered
gazebos and a floating dock with kayak launch provide water access. Two existing oyster bag sills are
located to the west of the pier. Marsh vegetation consists of Black Needlerush (Juncos roemerianus)
Spikegrass (Distichlis spicata), Glasswort (Salicornia spp), Salt Meadow Hay (Spartina patens), and Sea
Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens) above mean high water, which measures approximately 90' in width. A fringe
of Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina alternii fora) continues below the mean high water line and measures
approximately 45' in width.
The waters of the AIWW, adjacent to the project site, are classified as SB by the North Carolina Division of
Water Resources. The area is designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine
Fisheries and is closed to the harvesting of shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant is proposing to construct two bagged oyster shell sills and to plant Spartina alternii fora
landward of both sills. The first sill would be located between the two existing sills to the west of the pier.
The second sill would be located to the east of the pier. Each of the sills would measure approximately 28' in
length, 5' in width and approximately 18" in height. Both sills would be comprised of two layers of mesh
bagged oyster shells. Both sills would be located between the mean high and normal low water lines. Each of
the two Spartina alterniora planting areas would measure approximately 20' in length by 10' in width and
would also be located between the mean high and normal low water lines, landward of the two proposed
sills. The sills would be located approximately 55' waterward of the mean high water line and approximately
10' waterward of the edge of marsh. No high ground work is proposed. The applicant has stated that the
bagged shells will be trucked to the site at time of construction and will be transportedAyMfivia a pier to
the construction area. I(
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: JUN 0 9 M*
f
The proposed oyster shell bagged sills would result in the fill of approximately 280 square feet of shallow
bottom located in the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of Environmental CoR�H1 . The
marsh plantings would result in temporary impacts to approximately 400 square feet of Estuarine Waters and
Public Trust Area. Temporary increases in turbidity can be expected.

Dear Mr. Ryan:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application, acting as
agent for St. James Plantation POA, for State approval for development of the subject property located at 100
Southeast St SE(Waterway Park), adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIW W) in St. James
Plantation, Brunswick County. It was received as complete on May 13, 2014 and appears to be adequate for
processing at this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is July 28, 2014. 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.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from May 13, 2014, you may request
a meeting with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of
your project. Such a meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request
and shall include the property owner, developer, and project designer/consultant.
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 questions and notify me in writing
if you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
Sincerely,
Heather Coats
