It appears that the overall impact on SAV's would be insignificant. There is also documentation that two previous permits have been issued for maintenance dredging at this site. I would like to recommend approval of the request with the following conditions: 1) In order to protect juvenile sh 'mp and finfrsh populations, no excavation will be permitted between February and October 31st of any year without the prior approval of the Division of Coastal Management, in consultation with the Division of Marine Fisheries_a _.s 3 2) The temporary placement of double -handling of excavated or fill materials within waters or vegetated wetlands is not authorized. S 3) All excavated material shall be confined above mean high water and landward of regularly or irregularly flooded marsh behind adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spill -over of solids into any marsh or surrounding water. Y\ 4) No excavated or fill material will be placed at any time, in any marsh or surrounding waters, outside the alignment of the fill area indicated on the workplat. 5) All excavation will be conducted below the normal water line. 6) The terminal end of the influent pipe will be positioned at or greater that 50' from any part of the dike and a maximum distance from the spillway to allow settlement of suspended solids. 1367 U.S. 17 South, Elizabeth City, North Carolina 27909 Telephone 919-264-3901 FAX 919-264-3723 An Equal Opportunity Afflrmative Action Employer 50%recycled/ 10%post-consumer paper 7) A water control structure shall be installed at the intake end of the effluent pipe to assure compliance with water quality standards.

Parker, Jr., DCM Major Permits Processing Coordinator THROUGH: Maury Wolff, Permit Coordinator , FROM: Sara E. Winslow, Biologist Supervisor SUBJECT: County of Dare - OIWC - Perry/Nunemaker DATE: October 13, 1995 The following comments by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries are provided pursuant to General Statute 113-131. Blounts Bay functions as a nursery area for spot, croaker, flounder, weakfish, blue crabs, shrimp and other commercially and recreationally important species. Extensive blue crab shedding operations exist throughout the area, as well as commercial and recreational fisheries. The Division is concerned with the impacts to 16,585 sq. ft. of shallow water habitat, even though this is maintenance dredging. Significant turbidity will result from the dredging, which could impact fish and invertebrates in the area. Depending on the time of dredging soft crab shedding operations could also be impacted due to turbidity. The proposed depth of the basin and channel (-5' NWL) should not exceed the connecting depth in Blounts Bay. This agency requests a dredging moratorium associated with the maintenance excavation. The requested time frame is 15 February through 30 September. This will ensure the environmental integrity of the area is protected during critical times of usage by the previously mentioned species. This agency is concerned with the loss of SAV's that will result from this project. The importance of SAV's to fintish and invertebrate production and serving as habitat is well documented. The effects of the dredging on the SAV's needs to be determined. An assessment of the SAV's should be made prior to excavation, with semi-annual surveys conducted on the re-establishment in the area. This should be monitored for up to 5 years. Every effort should be made to avoid impacts to SAV's. P.O.

Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have completed a review of the project with regards to associated impacts on wildlife and fishery resources in the area. A site . visit was conducted on October 11, 1995. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Coastal Area Management Act (G. S. 113A-100 through 113A-128), and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.). The applicant proposes to maintenance dredge an 11,485 ft2 man-made basin, and a 5,100 ftZ channel into Blount's Bay. The project will produce approximately 1,000 cubic yards of spoil material that will be disposed of onsite. Waters at the project site are classified as SC and are closed to shellfishing. There are extensive areas of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) at and adjacent to the project site. The Division of Coastal Management has determined that the project will have a significant impact on submerged aquatic vegetation (SAVs) at the project site. Widgeon -grass and Eurasian water-milfoil are located around the perimeter of the basin, and in the existing channel. .v L.r. Perry Nunemaker 2 October 17, 1995 Dredging will adversely effect water quality by significantly increasing turbidity. Because of the direct removal of submerged aquatic vegetation during the project, and the potential to significantly increase turbidity, we request that a dredge moratorium be implemented from March 1 to September 30. Impacts to fishery resources may be minimized if work is prohibited during this critical spawning and rearing period. If the moratorium is considered unacceptable then a silt boom should be installed across the mouth of the basin prior to dredging and remain for 72 hours after dredging is completed. Construction of the spoil disposal site should be adequate to insure no sediment entry into adjacent wetlands. A water shut-off valve should be included, and should remain closed while the sediment/water slurry is pumped into the spoil disposal area. In order to allow settling of suspended sediments, the shut-off valve should remain closed for a minimum of 72 hours before release of effluent water into Blounts Bay. We appreciate the opportunity to provide input into this permit application review.

Your receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations. We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality certification is required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has been obtained or waived. In accordance with our administrative regulations, in most cases, 60 days after receipt of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if you have not acted on the request, or asked for an extension of time, by November 30, 1995, the District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.

PROJECT SUMMARY: Maintenance dredge a boat basin and channel access into Blounts Bay and from Perry/Nunemaker on Little Colington Island in Dare County. / Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 2 Site Description The proposed dredge project is located adjacent to State Road 1217 on Blounts Bay, Colington Island, Dare County. The channel and basin to be dredged accesses a commercial seafood business known as Colington Crab Company (formerly Nunemaker Seafood). The basin measures 210' from its head to Blounts Bay, is an average of 55' in width and approximately 3.1' in depth (below the normal water line). The basin is lined with docks and bulkheads, and has no open shoreline. Located behind the bulkhead along the southeast edge of the basin is Common Reed (Phragmites communis) and Big Cordgrass S artina cynosuroides). The existing channel, included in the dredging project, averages 4' below the normal water level (NWL) and will extend 170' from the mouth of the basin into Blounts Bay. Field investigation of the basin revealed thick mats of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV's) along the perimeter of the basin, with lesser amounts towards the middle of the basin. Changes in the density of the SAV's is probably due to boat traffic. Evidence of SAV's are apparent in the channel where dredging is also proposed. Both Widgeon -grass (RuI212is maritima and Eurasian Water-milfoil (Myriophyllum s icatum) can be found in both the basin and the channel. The property located to the north of the basin is owned by Vernon Perry. Adjacent to the docks on the Perry side of the basin is a net house, crab shedders, two dwellings and a single wide mobile home (landward of the project site). Located along the southern edge of the basin is the Nunemaker property, upon which a large cinder block building is situated which houses the Colington Crab Company. A spoil disposal site is proposed on the Nunemaker property in front of the fish house, adjacent to Colington Road. Located to the north of the spoil site is a section of coastal wetlands consisting primarily of Big Cordgrass S artina cynosuroides) and Black Needlerush Juncus roemerianus). Currently located on the property in the area of the spoil site is a dump consisting of vehicles and scrap metal. A private road is located to the front of the fish house between the spoil site and the basin, which accesses the dwelling units situated on the Perry property to the north of the project site. Proposed Development The applicant, Dare County, proposes to hydraulically dredge an 11,485 square foot man- made basin and a 5100 square foot channel (170'x 30') in Blounts Bay. The proposed depth for both the basin and the channel is 5' below the NWL. The basin averages 3.1' below NWL and the channel averages 4' below NWL. Existing water depths and the connecting depth were verified during a site visit with the applicants agent. The project will produce between 996 an 1002 cubic yards of spoil material that will be placed in a bermed disposal site on the Nunemaker property. The holding capacity of the retention area is estimated by the applicant to be 1,912 cubic yards, / Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 3 while staff calculations indicate that the disposal area will have a holding capacity of 1,422 cubic yards spoil of material. It is apparent from both calculations that the disposal site is sufficient to retain the spoil material from the dredge project. The proposed depth of the bermed spoil site is 8', for the purpose of determining the holding capacity a 6' depth was used to assure adequate retention of the spoil material. The proposed spoil site will be confined to a high ground area adjacent to a coastal wetland marsh. Influent and effluent pipes will be use to transfer dredge material from the basin and channel to the disposal site on the Nunemaker property. The pipe will be placed over an unimproved road located between the basin and the spoil site. The road in question serves as the only access to three residences on the Perry property. Once suspended solids have settled the water will be returned to the basin in a manner as to prevent the reentry of sediment into the basin. Anticipated Impacts It is anticipated that 11,485 square feet of shallow water habitat will be impacted by the dredging project. Localized turbidity will occur during dredging, but should actually reduce the current high rates of turbidity that result from heavy boat traffic in and out of the shallow water basin. Field investigation revealed that high rates of turbidity occur on a day to day basis as a result of the build-up of fine silt in the basin and channel. There will be a significant impact on Widgeon -grass and Eurasian Water-milfoil located around the perimeter of the basin and, to a lesser degree, in the existing channel. It should be noted that the heavy matting around the perimeter of the basin occurs, in part, as a direct result of boats churning up the vegetation in the shallow water and depositing it along the perimeter of the basin. Two previous permits have been issued for dredging projects along the basin and channel in question. A permit was issued to Dare County in 1982 (#98-82) to dredge a channel in Colington Bay and a connecting channel to what was then Nunemaker Seafood. A second permit was issued in 1983 (#41-83) to maintenance dragline the basin to a depth of 6' below the normal water level. A concurrent application has been submitted on the behalf of Dare County to dredge a basin, canal and channel adjacent to A&B Seafood along Dog Point Creek. CAMA REVIEW Blounts Bay is classified as "Joint Waters" by the Wildlife Resource Commission and Marine Fisheries, while water quality in the project area is classified as SC by the Division of Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 4 Environmental Management. No primary or secondary nursery is located in or near Blounts Bay. The project site is located in public trust water (PT) and estuarine water (EW), and as such is in an area of environmental concern. No unique remnant species, geologic formations or archeological sites are known to be associated with this site. Submerged aquatic vegetation is evident within the area to be dredged, as noted under anticipated impacts. The 1994 Dare County Land Plan classifies unincorporated areas located in CAMA AEC's, such as public trust and wetlands, as "Conservation". The purpose of the Conservation class is to provide for the long term management and protection of significant, limited or irreplaceable areas. The high ground area is classified as "Limited Transition". The purpose of the Limited Transition Class is to provide for developed areas that will have some services, but are suitable for lower densities in areas that are geographically remote from existing towns and municipalities. Dare County advocates routine maintenance of all existing navigable channels and will work to secure permit authorization whenever possible (p.89). The county also supports the preservation and protection of the publics right to access and use public trust waters (p.54). Submitted By: Lynn W.

PROJECT SUMMARY: Maintenance dredge a boat basin and channel access into Blounts Bay and from Perry/Nunemaker on Little Colington Island in Dare County. Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 2 Site Description The proposed dredge project is located adjacent to State Road 1217 on Blounts Bay, Colington Island, Dare County. The channel and basin to be dredged accesses a commercial seafood business known as Colington Crab Company (formerly Nunemaker Seafood). The basin measures 210' from its head to Blounts Bay, is an average of 55' in width and approximately 3.1' in depth (below the normal water line). The basin is lined with docks and bulkheads, and has no open shoreline. Located behind the bulkhead along the southeast edge of the basin is Common Reed (Phragmites communis) and Big Cordgrass S artina cynosuroides). The existing channel, included in the dredging project, averages 4' below the normal water level (NWL) and will extend 170' from the mouth of the basin into Blounts Bay. Field investigation of the basin revealed thick mats of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV's) along the perimeter of the basin, with lesser amounts towards the middle of the basin. Changes in the density of the SAV's is probably due to boat traffic. Evidence of SAV's are apparent in the channel where dredging is also proposed. Both Widgeon -grass (Ruppis maritima and Eurasian Water-milfoil (MyrioQhyllum s icatum) can be found in both the basin and the channel. The property located to the north of the basin is owned by Vernon Perry. Adjacent to the docks on the Perry side of the basin is a net house, crab shedders, two dwellings and a single wide mobile home (landward of the project site). Located along the southern edge of the basin is the Nunemaker property, upon which a large cinder block building is situated which houses the Colington Crab Company. A spoil disposal site is proposed on the Nunemaker property in front of the fish house, adjacent to Colington Road. Located to the north of the spoil site is a section of coastal wetlands consisting primarily of Big Cordgrass S artina cynosuroides) and Black Needlerush Juhcus roemerianus). Currently located on the property in the area of the spoil site is a dump consisting of vehicles and scrap metal. A private road is located to the front of the fish house between the spoil site and the basin, which accesses the dwelling units situated on the Perry property to the north of the project site. Proposed Development The applicant, Dare County, proposes to hydraulically dredge an 11,485 square foot man- made basin and a 5100 square foot channel (170'x 30') in Blounts Bay. The proposed depth for both the basin and the channel is 5' below the NWL. The basin averages 3.1' below NWL and the channel averages 4' below NWL. Existing water depths and the connecting depth were verified during a site visit with the applicants agent. The project will produce between 996 an 1002 cubic yards of spoil material that will be placed in a bermed disposal site on the Nunemaker property. The holding capacity of the retention area is estimated by the applicant to be 1,912 cubic yards, Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 3 while staff calculations indicate that the disposal area will have a holding capacity of 1,422 cubic yards spoil of material. It is apparent from both calculations that the disposal site is sufficient to retain the spoil material from the dredge project. The proposed depth of the bermed spoil site is 8', for the purpose of determining the holding capacity a 6' depth was used to assure adequate retention of the spoil material. The proposed spoil site will be confined to a high ground area adjacent to a coastal wetland marsh. Influent and effluent pipes will be use to transfer dredge material from the basin and channel to the disposal site on the Nunemaker property. The pipe will be placed over an unimproved road located between the basin and the spoil site. The road in question serves as the only access to three residences on the Perry property. Once suspended solids have settled the water will be returned to the basin in a manner as to prevent the reentry of sediment into the basin. Anticipated Impacts It is anticipated that 11,485 square feet of shallow water habitat will be impacted by the dredging project. Localized turbidity will occur during dredging, but should actually reduce the current high rates of turbidity that result from heavy boat traffic in and out of the shallow water basin. Field investigation revealed that high rates of turbidity occur on a day to day basis as a result of the build-up of fine silt in the basin and channel. There will be a significant impact on Widgeon -grass and Eurasian Water-milfoil located around the perimeter of the basin and, to a lesser degree, in the existing channel. It should be noted that the heavy matting around the perimeter of the basin occurs, in part, as a direct result of boats churning up the vegetation in the shallow water and depositing it along the perimeter of the basin. Two previous permits have been issued for dredging projects along the basin and channel in question. A permit was issued to Dare County in 1982 (#98-82) to dredge a channel in Colington Bay and a connecting channel to what was then Nunemaker Seafood. A second permit was issued in 1983 (/i41-83) to maintenance dragline the basin to a depth of 6' below the normal water level. A concurrent application has been submitted on the behalf of Dare County to dredge a basin, canal and channel adjacent to A&B Seafood along Dog Point Creek. CAMA REVIEW Blounts Bay is classified as "Joint Waters" by the Wildlife Resource Commission and Marine Fisheries, while water quality in the project area is classified as SC by the Division of Dare County/OIWC/ Perry-Nunemaker Bio Report Page 4 Environmental Management. No primary or secondary nursery is located in or near Blounts Bay. The project site is located in public trust water (PT) and estuarine water (EW), and as such is in an area of environmental concern. No unique remnant species, geologic formations or archeological sites are known to be associated with this site. Submerged aquatic vegetation is evident within the area to be dredged, as noted under anticipated impacts. The 1994 Dare County Land Plan classifies unincorporated areas located in CAMA AFC's, such as public trust and wetlands, as "Conservation". The purpose of the Conservation class is to provide for the long term management and protection of significant, limited or irreplaceable areas. The high ground area is classified as "Limited Transition". The purpose of the Limited Transition Class is to provide for developed areas that will have some services, but are suitable for lower densities in areas that are geographically remote from existing towns and municipalities. Dare County advocates routine maintenance of all existing navigable channels and will work to secure permit authorization whenever possible (p.89). The county also supports the preservation and protection of the publics right to access and use public trust waters (p.54). Submitted By: Lynn W.
