MEMORANDUM
TO: John Parker
FROM: David Moye'Dff*�
DATE: 12 March 1996
SUBJECT: James E. Owens Permit Application
The application is proposing to place a flat roof on an existing t12' by f18' boatlift and
construct one 25' long wooden groin in Albemarle Sound at Albemarle Beach subdivision. The
project was elevated into the major permit category because the applicant already has ant 15' by f24'
boathouse and the two added together will equal f585 W. The project appears to be consistent with
the rules found in Subchapter 7H concerning development in Estuarine Water and Public Trust
Areas. If the project is permitted, I recommend that the standard condition reflecting owner liability
concerning transfer be included.

James Owens Proposal: Roof over existing boatlift, wooden groin
construction, SR 1343 at Albemarle Beach, Washington County
This proposal includes the above activities, Public Trust Areas, Estuarine Waters and Estuarine
Shoreline AECs are involved. The proposal comes under the auspices of the July 1994 CRC
certified Washington County Land Use Plan update.
The plan offers the following limited guidance on proposals of this type:
County policy on AECs (page VIII-6) is to support development within AECs only if it
meets use and performance standards in 7H.
All AECs by definition (page IX-9) are included in the Conservation land class and uses
therein are governed by appropriate AEC use and performance standards.
My opinion is if this proposal meets applicable AEC use and performance standards it would not
be inconsistent with the county's 1994 land use plan update.

James E. Owens
Albemarle Beach
Washington County
Project setting
The project site is located on SR 1343 at Albemarle Beach on Albemarle Sound near Roper,
North Carolina. The property is bordered on both sides by developed and bulkheaded lots and is part
of Albemarle Beach subdivision. The property measures ±255' along the shoreline and is
bulkheaded along the entire length. An existing home and garage are present on the site. Centered
on the property is a pier, T-head and deck, an±369 ft2 boathouse, and anf216 ft2 uncovered boatlift.
Approximately 25' east (downstream) of the pier is a wooden boatramp. The area is vegetated with
lawn grass, pines, hardwood trees, and various landscape shrubs adjacent the dwelling. Numerous
cypress trees are present in the shallow water near shore area. The project site is t5' above the
normal water level.
Albemarle Sound is classified as SB by the Environmental Management Commission at the
project site. Albemarle Sound at the project site is coastal water but is not open to shell fishing.
Project description
The applicant proposes to construct an f12' by f18' flat roof over the existing boatlift which
when added to the existing boathouse will give a total square footage of f585. One 25' long wooden
groin is also proposed to run parallel to the existing pier and use the existing pier pilings. The
wooden groin will project above the normal water level approximately 1'.
Anticipated impacts
The project as proposed will result in the filling if±25 ft2 of sound bottom associated with
the installation of the wooden groin and the shading of±216 ft2 of sound bottom from the installation
of a flat roof on the existing uncovered boatlift. The project as proposed will result in localized
turbidity as a result of the construction activities.

SUBJECT:
Application for CAMA Major Permit and/or Dredge & Fill Permit
James E. Owens
Washington County, North Carolina
Attached is an application for a CAMA Major and/or a Dredge & Fill permit which was
received by me on 7 March 1996. I am considering this application complete, have
acknowledged receipt, and have begun processing.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Mr. Owens:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for State
approval for development of your property located on SR 1343 at Albemarle Beach on Albemarle Sound
near Roper in Washington County, North Carolina. It was received on 7 March 1996 and appears to be
adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is 21 May 1996. An
additional 75-day review period is provided by taw 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 also serve as your notice of an
extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day. Should there
be any questions on this procedural change, do not hesitate to contact me.
N.C.G.S. 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, �Al rn

Dear Mr. Moye:
I am applying for a CAMA Major Permit in order to construct
a roof on my second boat lift, and also to get permission
to build a 25 foot groin at my home at Albemarle Beach.
I built the second boat lift last year not realizing there
was aC500_,square foot limit per family. This second boat
lift will bring me over the 500 square foot allowed.
The groin is needed, hopefully, to bring back the sand that
I have lost in front of my house.
I appreciate your help on this application. Hopefully,
everything will be in order this time.
Sincerely,
DAMES E. OWENS
