Schecter, Director MEMORANDUM �i a _ SEP 25 96 v \j ' L7EHNFR TO: John Parker r - A / �p FROM: Dennis W. Hawthorn ��.li% SUBJECT: Gaston Small/Damson's Gram Subdivision Boift Ramp DATE: September 21, 1996 The applicant proposes to construct, across wooded wetlands, a water access channel and a boat ramp on Areneuse Creek. This proposed work includes the excavation and fill of freshwater wetlands and Public Trust Waters. Construction includes the excavation of a 196 ft. by 26 ft. wide access channel, a 30 ft. long by 20 ft. wide concrete ramp and a 40 ft. long by 6 ft. wide pier adjacent to the proposed boat ramp. Approximately one-half of the pier will be placed over Public Trust Waters. Approximately 10 ft. of the proposed boat ramp will be waterward of the NWL and require filling of approximately 200 sf. of Public Trust Waters. Damson's Grant Subdivision is located in Camden County off NC 343, approximately 2 miles northwest of the Taylors Beach community. The proposed construction site is on a small pre-existing gut or slip along Areneuse Creek, a tributary to the Pasquotank River. The waters of Areneuse Creek are classified by the Division of Marine Fisheries as Inland Waters and are also classified by the Division of Coastal Management as Public Trust Waters and are part of the Estuarine System Area of Environmental Concern. The shoreline and proposed access area, as well as the shoreline of the Damson's Grant Subdivision is vegetated in a 100 to 150 foot wide wetland fringe of freshwater herbaceous, woody and hardwood wetland plant species, the area adjacent to the access area is vegetated in Taxodium distichum, Ayssa aquatica, Liquidambar styraciflua as well as Myrica cerifera, Magnolia virginiana and Acer rubrum with various herbaceous vines and perennials. This proposed boat access has been designated as an US COE jurisdictional wetland. This project has slightly over one -tenth of an acre of impacts. The applicant has not proposed any mitigation to compensate for wetland habitat losses, nor has the applicant proposed shoreline stabilization to minimize erosion and sedimentation after the channel and basin work are complete.. The proposed work will directly impact about 2400 sf. (0.055 A.) of freshwater US COE jurisdictional wetlands and about 2900 sf. (0.067 A.) of Public Trust Waters. The proposed boat ramp will be constructed landward of the current wetland boundary. The proposed spoil and drive access areas will be landward of any wetlands. The proposed work will not directly impact any Coastal Wetlands, Estuarine Waters or Estuarine Shoreline. 1367 U.S. 17 South, Eltzabeth City, North Carolina 27909 Telephone 919-264-3901 FAX 919-264-3723 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 10%post-consumer paper John Parker Gaston Small September 21, 1996 The proposed facility will be for private use for the Danson's Grant Subdivision. Currently, there are no public boat ramps located in Camden County. The applicant has not requested authorization to stabilize any of the proposed access channel, basin or boat ramp. The proposed project will increase turbidity in the adjacent Public Trust Waters. The Division has received continents from several agencies on this proposed work ranging from caution to denial, considering the following. [i] There is no evidence that any other sites were examined which might have less negative impacts to wildlife and fishery resources. It appears that a ramp facility located near the SR 343 bridge might have less impacts to these resources. [ii] A sedimentation plan has been approved for this subdivision however, the Division of Water Quality will not require that a stormwater runoff plan or permit be issued, that the site poses no threats to water quality. It is my feeling that if this entire neighborhood removes all the wooded wetland fringe along Arenuese Creek that this will impact water quality, that a stormwater plan will be important. [iii] According to the District Health Department, the "proposed subdivision" will come under a management entity. This will require that the septic systems on each individual lot be inspected annually. [iv] The applicant has not proposed to stabilize the shoreline of any of the boat ramp, basin or access facility. This will certainly add to sedimentation of Arenuese Creek and the proposed channel in the long run. [v] The applicant proposes a water depth of 3.0 ft. below normal water level in the basin portion of the facility. Several large stumps (from recently logged cypress) are in this vicinity. The removal of these stumps will create holes at depths greater than 3 ft. below the NWL. [vi] The US F & W Service has serious concerns about the proposed facility. The NC Division of Marine Fisheries has recommended a denial of this project, heavily based on concern [i], above. In addition to the above comments, I believe the proposed shape and alignment of the access channel will hinder flushing. Therefore, I recommend this project be denied authorization.

Basis For Determination: The CRC certified Camden County July 29,1994 LUP Update was used to review this project. The subdivision area appears to be classified as "Rurar', on the County's Land Classification Map. LUP text statements regarding the Land Classification System (page 65), under the Introduction section second paragraph notes: "However, the land classification system makes no restrictions on land use. Any development is permitted on any site if such development complies with existing local regulations and with various permit requirements of the state and federal agencies with jurisdiction." Public Trust Waters Policy, page 39: "The County supports the guidelines of the Coastal Area Management Act and efforts and programs of. ..... to protect coastal wetlands, estuarine waters, estuarine shorelines, and public trust waters of Camden County.".... "The County will rely on the NC DEHNR, DCM, to regulate development in coastal wetlands and along the estuarine shorelines and to protect estuarine waters through the CAMA permitting process. Also, it will rely on the regulations of other state and federal agencies with regulatory authority, as well as on existing local development regulations to mitigate threats to AFC's." cc: Preston Pate, DCM 1T7 U.S. 17 South.

Hunt, Jr., Governor p E H N R Jonathan B. Howes, Secretary Bruce L. Freeman, Director MEMORANDUM: TO: John R. Parker, Jr., DCM Major Permits Processing Coordinator THROUGH: P. A. Wojciechowski, Permit Coordinator FROM: Sara E. Winslow, Biologist Supervisor SUBJECT: Gaston Small, Danson's Grant Subdivision Proposal DATE: July 0, 1996 The following comments by the North Carolina, Division of Marine Fisheries are provided pursuant to General Statute 113-131. The Division objects to the project as proposed based on the following reasons. Areneuse Creek functions as a spawning and nursery area for blueback herring and alewife. Resident species also utilize the creek. The 196 ft. by 26 ft. proposed access canal will impact 2400 sq. ft. of wetlands, according to the DCM Bio-report. It seems that the impacts to wetlands would even be greater based on the proposed length and width. The Division is concerned with the loss of these 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. The proposed excavation of the canal will result in circulation and flushing problems. Designs of this type have resulted in dissolved oxygen level problems, which may result in fish kills and degradation of water quality to the adjoining waters. Algae blooms may also result. The Division is also concerned that if the permit is issued, no request has been made for any stabilization of the canal, basin, or boat ramp. With no stabilization proposed the wetlands will continually be subject to erosion. The constant erosion and sluffmg off of the shoreline will increase the required frequency of maintenance dredging and the turbidity in the area. P.O.

Biologists on the Wildlife Resources Commission staff have reviewed this permit application and are familiar with habitat values of the project area. In order to further assess project impacts on fish and wildlife resources, an onsite inspection was conducted on July 30, 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 proposes to dredge an access channel and basin in wooded wetlands (swamp) adjacent to Areneuse Creek. The applicant will then construct a boat ramp and access pier. Waters at the site are classified as SB. The proposed facilities will be for the residences on Danson's Grant Subdivision and not for the general public. We prefer the development of community facilities instead of the proliferation of individual ramps and piers. Areneuse Creek and other creeks in the vicinity are documented to be productive spawning areas especially for heron. We make the following recommendations in order to minimize impacts to spawning fish populations. 1. To avoid heron spawning season, dredging of the access channel and basin should be prohibited between March 1 and September 30. % 2. Wet cement in contact with water is toxic to aquatic organisms; therefore, the cement slab for the boat ramp should be poured on an upland site and slid into place once hardened.

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. Contrary to the answer provided to question "ell on form DCM- MP-3, there is no approved erosion and sedimentation control plan for this portion of the project known as Danson's Grant. 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. All roads and drainage constructed beyond that shown on the erosion and sedimentation control plan for Phase 1. 2. A scaled plat plan of the site, showing the affected areas as well as -adjacent properties which may be affected.

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.

The project will disturb 6..8± acres for construction of residential roads and 23 lot line swales. Based upon the information provided, we find the plan to be acceptable and hereby issue this LETTER OF APPROVAL. The Sedimentation Pollution Control Act requires the owner/developer to use appropriate methods for the protection of 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. The following minimal mandatory standards of the Act are hereby made a part of the approved plan: -- 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 sedimentation, must be maintained between the land -disturbing activity and any adjacent property or watercourse; 1424 Carolina Avenue.

Be advised that unannounced periodic inspections of the project will be made to ensure compliance with the approved plan and the program requirements. If the plan and/or its implementation is determined to be inadequate, this office may require that it be revised to comply with state law. Failure to comply with the approved plan or with any requirements of this program or to affect areas in other than to those designated to be affected in the approved plan, could result in a civil penalty assessment of up to $500 per day for each day the site is out of compliance against the financially responsible party (Gaston E. Small, Jr. and Beverly M. Small). In recognizing -the desirability of early coordination of sedimentation control, we believe it would be beneficial for you and your contractor to arrange a pre -construction conference to discuss the requirements of the approved erosion and scdimen-- tation control plan. It would be appreciated if you would contact this office to let Richard Peed know the date of construction start-up and the date of the pre -construction conference. 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, 919--946-6481), county, city or town agencies under other local ordinances, or other approvals that may be required.

Youngbluth Wilmington District Engineers Wilmington, NC 28402-1890 Attention: Raleigh Bland Dear Colonel Youngbluth: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the project plans and field investigation report for activities proposed by Gaston Small (representing the Danson's Grant Subdivision) (Action I.D. no. 199604830). The applicant proposes to excavate a 196 feet long by 26 feet wide access channel through riverine wetlands. At the landward terminus of the canal, the applicant proposes to construct a concrete boat ramp and wooden pier. The waterward terminus of the channel is a pre-existing gut along Areneuse Creek, a tributary of the Pasquotank River. No erosion control or other stabilization structures are proposed. The proposed facilities are for the private use of residents of Danson's Grant Subdivision. This is the report of the Service submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with, provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.) and the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (87 Stat. 884, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The Service recommends that the District Engineer exercise his discretionary authority regarding the disposition of the proposed activities. As currently proposed, the "proposed activity would have more than minimal individual or cumulative net adverse effects on the environment or otherwise be contrary to the public interest..." (33 CFR 330.1(d)). Further, the causative agent for the proposed activities, construction of a housing subdivision, is non -water -dependent. If the proposed activities are non -water - dependent, the applicant is obligated to rebut the assumption that less environmentally damaging practical alternatives exist. The applicant has not presented any alternatives analysis, nor sought means to avoid, minimize, or mitigate the wetland impacts associated with this proposal. Additionally, we believe that it is reasonable and prudent to anticipate cumulative impacts to fish and wildlife resources from this proposal. The proposed channel will require frequent in -water maintenance and other support activities which may adversely impact the subject wetlands (temporal impacts). Further, since the activities will, in effect, encourage boating activities among subdivision residents, it is reasonable to assume that residents will soon desire boat access to private lots (spatial impacts). The applicant should demonstrate that no reasonable alternatives which would avoid impacts to fish and wildlife resources are available (alternatives include, but not limited to, moving the location of the boat access site to an area outside the present boundaries of the Danson's Grant subdivision). Should avoidance be impractical, the applicant should modify the proposal to identify and minimize individual and cumulative impacts. Additionally, mitigation should be proposed for these minimal impacts. The Service recommends that the applicant revise the application to include an alternatives analysis, evidence that adverse impacts have been avoided or minimized, and if unavoidable wetland impacts remain, provide mitigation for affected fish and wildlife resources. We appreciate the opportunity to comment on this matter. Please call Kevin Moody of my staff at (919) 856-4520 extension 19 with comments or questions.

CpB Ig Attention Raleigh Bland r MANA�fHfN� Dear Lt. Colonel Youngbluth: In accordance with Part II, Section 4 of the current Memorandum of Agreement between the Departments of Commerce and the Army, I am offering the following comments on permit application 199604830 dated July 17, 1996. The applicant, Danson's Grant Subdivision, proposes to excavate wetlands to construct a boat basin and ramp adjacent to the waters of Areneuse Creek in Camden County, North Carolina. The proposed project consists of the construction of a 196-foot- long by 26-foot-wide access channel through wetlands and the construction of a 30-foot-long by 20-foot-wide boat ramp. A 40- foot-long by 6-foot-wide pier would be constructed adjacent to the proposed boat ramp. The purpose of the work is to provide boating access to the proposed subdivision. The project area is located on a peninsula between Areneuse Creek and another unnamed tributary of the Chowan River. Information provided by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM) indicates that the proposed subdivision will offer 100 building lots aligned along a 1000-foot-long portion of these creeks. Wetlands in the project area are vegetated with a variety of species including bald cypress (Taxodium distichum), tupelo gum (Nyssa aquatica), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tuliDifera), wax myrtle (Mvrica cerifera), and red maple (Acer rubrum). During periods of high water, these wetlands provide habitat for fishery resources and export organic detritus that is an important component in the aquatic food chain in the downstream waters of Albemarle Sound. They also function to remove sediment, nutrients, and pollutants from upland runoff before it reaches surface waters, thereby improving water quality.' 'Wharton, C.H., W.M. Kitchens, E.C. Pendleton, and T.W. Sipe. 1982. The ecology of bottomland hardwood swamps of the Southeast: a community profile. U.S. Fish and Wildl. Serv., Biol. Ser. Prog., ,IY Based on our knowledge of the project area and coordination with the NCDCM, we are concerned that this work would be detrimental to fishery resources. The proposed access channel will result in the loss of a small but important area of wooded wetlands. There is no indication in the public notice that the proposed alignment is the least damaging alternative for community access or that any other alternatives were considered. Furthermore, no mitigation for unavoidable wetland losses is offered. We are also concerned that the proposed development could result in additional wetland losses and degradation of water quality in Areneuse Creek. Areneuse Creek provides habitat for a variety of commercially, recreationally, and ecologically important fishery resources. Species found in the project area include the anadromous striped bass (Morone saxatilis), blueback herring (Alosa aestivalis), and white perch (Morone Americanus) and estuarine dependent species such as flounders (Paralichthvs spp.) and Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus). Upon completion of this project, each waterfront property owner (100) could receive authorization to construct piers, docks, and boat ramps or place fill in shoreline wetlands pursuant to Nationwide Permit #18, which allows for the filling of up to one tenth of an acre for each application. This could result in an additional wetland loss of up to ten acres. We believe that it is appropriate to assess the impact of the proposed subdivision as a unit rather than as a number of small impacts which cumulatively are difficult to assess and for which a requirement for mitigation is unlikely. Accordingly, we recommend that the Corps of Engineers (COE) evaluate the cumulative secondary impacts of this project and determine whether all feasible measures to avoid or minimize both direct and indirect impacts have been taken. We recommend that the COE consider special permit conditions that would require the applicant to provide community boating facilities and by deed restrictions prohibit the construction of individual facilities. Any issued permit should also include the requirement of up front compensatory mitigation for unavoidable wetland losses. In view of the above, the National Marine Fisheries Service recommends that federal authorization of this work not be granted unless the federal authorization includes special conditions as outlined above.

PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to construct, across wooded wetlands, water access channel with a basin/boat ramp and pier on Areneuse Creek. Gaston SmalUDansonIs Grant Subdivision 41 Bio Report Page Two Proposed Work The applicant proposes to construct, across wooded wetlands, a water access'channel and a boat ramp on Areneuse Creek. This proposed work includes the excavation and fill of freshwater wetlands and Public Trust Waters. Construction includes the excavation of a 196 ft. by 26 ft. wide access channel, a 30 ft. long by 20 ft. wide concrete ramp and a 40 ft. long by 6 ft. wide pier adjacent to the proposed boat ramp. Approximately one-half of the pier will be placed over Public Trust Waters. Approximately 10 ft. of the proposed boat ramp will be waterward of the NWL and require filling of approximately 200 sf. of Public B Trust Waters. Site Description Danson's Grant Subdivision is located in Camden County off NC 343, approximately 2 miles northwest of the Taylors Beach community. The proposed construction site is on a small pre-existing gut or slip along Areneuse Creek, a tributary to the Pasquotank River. The waters of Areneuse Creek are classified by the Division of Marine Fisheries as Inland Waters and are also classified by the Division of Coastal Management as Public Trust Waters and are part of the Estuarine System Area of Environmental Concern. The shoreline and;.Rroposed access area are vegetated in a 100 to 150 foot wide wetland fringe of freshwater herbaceous, woody and hardwood wetland plant species, the area adjacent to the access area is vegetated in Taxodium distichum, Nyssa aquatica, Liquidambar styrac j2ua as well as Myrica cerifera, Magnolia virginiana and Acer rubrum with various herbaceous vines and perennials. This site has been delineated as an US COE jurisdictional wetland. This project has slightly over one -tenth of an acre of impacts. The applicant has not proposed any mitigation to compensate for wetland habitat losses. Anticipated Impacts The proposed work will directly impact about 2400 sf. (0.055 A.) of freshwater US COE jurisdictional wetlands and about 2900 sf. (0.067 A.) of Public Trust Waters. The proposed boat ramp will be constructed landward of the current wetland boundary. The proposed spoil and drive access areas will be landward of any wetlands. The proposed work will not impact any Coastal Wetlands, Estuarine Waters or Estuarine Shoreline. The proposed facility will be for private use for the Danson's Grant Subdivision. Currently, there are no public boat ramps located in Camden County. The applicant has not requested authorization to stabilize any of the proposed access channel, basin or boat ramp. The proposed project will increase turbidity in the adjacent Public Trust Waters.

Army Corps of Engineers Attn.: Mr. Raleigh Bland PO Box 1000 Washington, NC 27889-1000 Dear Mr. Bland, REgsvim OCT 2 5 1996 This letter is with reference to Danson's Grant Subdivision (Action ID # 199604830). After considerable discussion with regards to comments by US Fish & Wildlife, National Marine Fisheries, NC Division of Marine Fisheries, and the NC Division of Coastal Management, we have coordinated with our client and propose the attached mitigation to offset the unavoidable impacts associated with the project. The purpose of the proposed activity is to provide a community access area for navigation to Areneuse Creek and to minimize the number of piers or other activity to access the adjoining navigable waters. By virtue of this being a community facility we feel this will minimize the impact on the adjacent wetland area. In light of the comments that have been received, we feel that an offering of mitigation is appropriate. In order to mitigate for the 4.578 sq. ft. of unavoidable impacts associated with the access channel that will cross hardwood bottom swamp and shallow water, we propose to create 10,000 sq. ft. of wetlands adjacent to the proposed project by excavating the highground wetland interface to the adjoining wetland elevation. This will result in a 2:1 ratio. We propose to allow this area to revegetate naturally and to use the overburden in the community access area. This material will be stabilized with lawn grass at the same time that the spoil from the excavation is smoothed and stabilized. We propose that this mitigation be accomplished concurrently with the excavation occurs for the access channel. We appreciate your consideration of this proposal and remain available to discuss its applicability to this project and the possibility that it could adequately compensate for the unavoidable loss of wetlands at the project site.
