MEMORANDUM
TO: John Parker
FROM: Terry Moore
DATE: 9 September 1997
SUBJECT: Engelhard Development Corporation Major CAMA Permit No. 118-96
I have reviewed the attached request for permit modification and find it consistent with an
alignment which could be authorized via a general permit on this channelized section of Far
Creek. Because the project involves a community group with limited funds, I thought it
reasonable to modify their existing permit to allow more time for the same fee. However it has
come to my attention that this permit is CAMA only. Now I question, will this finding be of over
riding concern and disallow the use of the minor modification route? My recommendation is to
issue the minor modification and leave the conditions unchanged. Photos are attached - please
return. With erosion exposing footings, foundations, septic tanks, etc. etc., I do not believe it
necessary to circulate in order to know what to do.

Dear Mr. Moore,
The Engelhard Development Corporation requests a minor modification to Major CAMA
Permit No. 118-96 to allow for the construction of approximately 280 feet of bulkhead
along the landward side of the newly constructed boardwalk on Far Creek in Engelhard.
The permit was issued on August 6, 1996 and expires on December 31, 1999 which gives
mplete.this *+roes. ;ect. -W-e-are concerned -that the -erosion will
continue to degrade the appearance of the property and back of the buildings and wish to
work with the landowners to protect and beautify the area. A small area of wetlands
behind property number 6 will be left undisturbed as you have recommended.
We have existing easements in hand from each of these property owners and they are
willing to cooperate with us on this project.
A plan view is enclosed as well as a typical drawing of the bulkhead attached to the
boardwalk. Enclosed is a $50 check for this minor modification.
Thank you for your help and cooperation with this project.
Sincerely, t
Tommy Etheridge
