ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
4. Excavation will not exceed 6 feet below the elevation of normal water level in the turning
basin and 7 feet in the access channel, as requested.
SPOIL CONTAINMENT
All excavated material shall be confined above normal high water and landward of
structures to prevent spillover of solids into any wetlands or surrounding water.
A water control structure shall be installed at the intake end of the effluent pipe leading
from the retention area in order to ensure maximum settlement of suspended solids.
Flow from the diked retention area shall be confined by pipe, trough, or similar device
to a point at or below the normal water level (NWL) elevation contour to prevent gully
erosion and siltation.
The terminal end of the pipeline will be positioned at or greater than fifty feet (50')
from any part of the dike and a maximum distance from spillways to allow settlement
of suspended solids.
The diked disposal area will be constructed a sufficient distance from the normal water
level or any marsh to eliminate the possibility of dike erosion into or upon any marsh
or surrounding waters.
10. The permittee shall maintain a 2' freeboard and a 2:1 ratio of discharge to holding
capacity. This can be accomplished by dredging in phases, perhaps as many as three.
11. 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 water body is 25 NTUs or less in all saltwater classes are
not considered significant.
12. The exterior slopes of the disposal area dikes must be at an angle no steeper than 1 '/2
H: 1 V.
13. Appropriate erosion and sedimentation control devices, measures, or structures must be
used to prevent sediment from entering adjacent wetlands/watercourses/properties
(e.g., silt fence, diversion swales/berms, sand fence, etc).

Site Description
The proposed dredge project is located along a man-made canal in Manns Harbor, adjacent to
Old Ferry Dock Road (SR 1110) in Dare County. The canal is lined with docks, shacks and net
houses on the southern bank which terminates in front of Benny's Seafood and boat dock.
Submerged boats are located along the southern edge of the canal adjacent to some of the docks
and one net house has collapsed into the canal. Much of the docking facilities along the canal
are in a state of disrepair. Located near the mouth of the canal, next to the old Croatan Ferry
Dock, is a public dock and boat ramp. Along the north bank of the canal, extending from the
mouth of the canal approximately 950', is vacant land consisting of both high ground and marsh.
Plant species along the high ground area include, but are not limited to, Loblolly Pine (Pins
taeda), Wax Myrtle (Myrica cerifera), Silvering; Groundsel-tree (Baccharis halimifolia), and Sea
Ox-eye (Borrichia frutescens). Towards the mouth of the canal is a marsh primarily consisting
of Black Needlerush (Juncus romerianus).
The canal turns in a northeasterly direction and runs past Benny's Seafood, this portion of the
canal is not included in the dredging project. All dredging will be confined to the main canal
extending from the sound along Old Ferry Dock Road to the south side of Benny's Seafood.
Located across the canal from the fish house is a high ground area that was used as a dredge
spoil site when the canals were originally dug. The high ground area is where the spoil material
will be placed should the permit be issued. The proposed site is currently used to ,store crab
pots, nets, vehicles and net poles. A 20'x 30' net house and two storage containers located on
the site will be removed in order to accommodate the spoil retention area. The high ground site
is approximately 250'x 80' and has a long dock lining the northwest bank, across from Benny's
Seafood. Plant species found in and around the proposed spoil site include, but are not limited
to, Loblolly Pine, Wax Myrtle, Sea Ox-eye, Black Needlerush, Partridge Pea (Cassia
fasciculata), Common Reed (Phragmites communis), and Straw Colored Umbrella Sedge
(Cyperus strigosus).
The project divides the canal into two sections: 1) The turning basin; and, 2) access channel.
According to staff findings water depths range from 4.5' to 6' in the turning basin and 4.16' to
a connecting depth of 8' in the access channel. The total length of the turning basin and channel
is approximately 1188'. The turning basin has an average width of 36' and the channel has an
average width of 39'. The application states that the average width of the turning basin is 29'
and the channel is 35.5'. It should be noted that while no submerged aquatic vegetation was
specifically found in the water, Eurasian Water-milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) was found in
the rack line along the bank.
Proposed Development

canal and channel accessing a commercial fish house, several small independent fishing

operations and a public access in Manns Harbor. According to the application and plan submitted
165.3 cubic yards of material will be dredged from the turning basin and 1,331 cubic yards will
be dredged from the access channel, for a total of 1,496.3 cubic yards of spoil. The spoil area
is noted in the application as being approximately 230'x 65'x 10' with a holding capacity of
3,422 cubic yards. The "Area of Environmental Concern" that will be disturbed for proposed
spoil retention site is estimated at 14,950 square feet, while the area of shallow water habitat that
will be disturbed is estimated to be 38,839.5 square feet.
Staff calculations indicate slightly different figures noted above, but they do not appear to be
significantly different. Per field verification the average depth of the turning basin is
approximately 5.5' deep with an average width of 36'. The width of the dredge channel was
calculated at 27.66', taking into consideration the side slope and the average width of the turning
basin (See Work Sheet #1). Based on those figures it was estimated that 251 cubic yards of
material will be dredged from this -section of the canal. The access channel was determined in
a same manner by calculating the average depth of 5.3' , the average width of 39' and the dredge
channel with (in consideration with the slope). The resulting width of the access channel bottom
was determined to be 32'. Based on these figures it was estimated that 1,360 cubic yards of
dredge material will be removed from the access channel. The result of the staff analysis
indicates a total of 1,611 cubic yards of spoil being generated from the total project and will
disturb a total of 44,793 square feet of shallow water habitat.
The spoil retention area was also calculated in a manner that differed slightly from that
submitted by the applicants agent, but indicates that the necessary holding capacity can be
provided. The proposed site is approximately 250'x 80'. By calculating the size of the berm,
which is 10' feet high at a 1:1 slope the resulting base is 20' wide (See Work Sheet #2). For the
purpose of determining the actual holding capacity the berm is calculated at a width of 15' as
noted on work sheet #2. The width of the berm (15') in conjunction with a reasonable setback
from NWL (10) significantly reduces the area available for the spoil material (See Work Sheet
#3). The maximum "free" area is 200'x 30'x 8', which results in 1,777.77 cubic yards of
holding capacity. The total area to be disturbed within the AEC landward of the canal will be
approximately 13,800 square feet (230'x 60% including the berm.
Anticipated Impacts
The project will result in the disturbance of approximately 44,793 square feet of shallow water
habitat and 13,800 square feet of high ground located within the Area of Environmental
Concern. Although not specifically found during the field visit there is indication that some
submerged aquatic vegetation may be present in the project area. There will be some localized
turbidity associated with the project. The spoil material generated will be placed on a high
ground site adjacent to the canal being dredged. Effluent will be piped to the site and held until
suspended solid have settled, at which time the water will be drained Dare County/ OIWC/

back into the canal. No specific information was submitted indicating settling time prior to the
reintroduction of the water into the canal. In order to accommodate the proposed spoil area the
high ground area will be cleared of debris located on the site. The proposed dredge activity will
provide improved access to commercial and recreational boaters along the canal. A desirable
impact may be the removal of a considerable amount of debris currently located in the canal.
CAMA Review and Consistency
The canal in question is classified as "joint waters" by the Wildlife Resource Commission and
Marine Fisheries, and the water itself is classified as SA by the Division of Environmental
Management. No primary or secondary nurseries are located in or near the proposed project.
The project is located in public trust water (PT), estuarine water (EW) and will effect estuarine
shoreline (ES) which are all "Areas of Environmental Concern".
No unique remnant species, geologic formations or archeological sites are known to be
associated with this particular site. Submerged aquatic vegetation is evident in the area of the
project site and will be impacted by the work to be preformed. The National Wetland Inventory
Map provided by the Department of the Interior classifies the high ground area as upland (non -
wetland). The Dare County Soil Survey classifies the soil in the area of the spoil site a
psamments (PsB), indicating that most or all of the natural soil has been disturbed or covered.
The 1994 Dare County Land Use Plan classifies unincorporated areas located in CAMA AEC's
such as, but not limited to, estuarine waters, public trust waters 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 conservation class applies to the high ground
spoil site being proposed as well as the canal and channel. Dare County advocates the 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
public's right to access and use public trust waters (p. 54).

I have reviewed your February 14, 1996 dredging extension request with resource
specialists within both DCM and DMF. After careful consideration of the various agency
opinions I have concluded you have a compelling need for a dredging period extension.
Therefore, I hereby authorize the extension of the dredging season to midnight February 29,
1996 for the projects permitted by CAMA Permits #10-96, #11-96 and #18-96. Any dredging
period extension beyond this date will be water temperature/biological activity dependent.
A copy of this authorization should be attached to each of the affected permits. All other
conditions, notes and deadlines remain in effect.
Best of luck and please keep me informed of your clients progress.

Harbor Boat Basin, Dare County.
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. Our
comments are provided 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 Coastal Area Management Act (G. S.
113A-100 through 113A-128).
The applicant proposes to maintenance dredge a man-made canal with a turning basin and
access channel, adjacent to Old Ferry Dock Road into the Croatan Sound. Current average depth
of the turning basin is 5.5 ft. below NWL, proposed depth is 6 ft. below NWL. Average depth of
access channel is 5.3 ft. below NWL, proposed depth 4s 7 ft. below NWL. The total area of
shallow water habitat to be disturbed will be 44,793 ft (1.03 acres). The disposal site will be a
high ground area that was used as a dredge spoil site when the canals were originally dug. The
waters at the site are classified SA by the Division of Environmental Management and are closed
to the harvest of shellfish.
The primary adverse impact anticipated to result from the project is turbidity associated
with dredging. Elevated turbidity could reduce water quality in this area and stress marine
organisms. Excessive turbidity is particularly damaging to egg and IaNa( )!f sta es of marine
organisms. Waters at the project site are classified as SA wit a possible pre SAVs.
Therefore, we recommend that dredging be prohibited betwe April 1 and September 3
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you need further
assistance or additional information, please contact William Wescott at [phone].

DATE: 22 November 1995
The following comments by the North Carolinq. Division of Marine Fisheries are
provided pursuant to General Statute 113-131. This agency approves of this project with the
following modifications.
Croatan Sound functions as a nursery area for spot, croaker, spotted seatrout, weakfish,
shrimp, blue crabs and other commercially and recreationally important species. The waters
immediately to the project site are SA waters, closed to shellfishing. Oyster resources occur in
the Croatan Sound area.
The Division is concerned with the impacts to 44,793 square feet 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. The proposed depths should
not exceed the connecting depth. This agenc ests a dredging mora on1 �tated with
the excavation. The time is 15 February Seemfr s
ensure the environmental integrity of the nnect„ring_cficmgebythe
previously mentioned species. The Division would also recommend that the work begin at the
upper end and work toward the mouth.
Adequate settling time must occur within the spoil disposal site to assure that the effluent
is free of turbidity. This could be critical during times of high biological productivity.

Dear Mr. Dorney:
Enclosed is the application of the Dare County Oregon Inlet Waterways
Commission for Department of the Army (DA) authorization and a State Water
Quality Certification to undertake maintenance dredging activities within an
existing basin and access channel, located off State Road 1110 (Old Ferry Dock
Road), adjacent the Croatan Sound, Manns Harbor, Dare County, North Carolina.
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, end 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.
According to our administrative regulations, 60 days is reasonable for
State action. Therefore, if you have not acted on the request, or asked for an
extension of time, by January 20, 1996, the District Engineer will deem that
waiver has occurred.

Dear Sir:
This letter is with reference to your application for a Coastal Area Management Act
Major Development and State Dredge and Fill permit to carry out development on property
located adjacent to Old Ferry Dock Road in Maims Harbor, Dare County. Although processing

review and make a decision on your request. Therefore, it is necessary that the standard review
time be extended. An additional 75 days is provided by G.S. 113A-122(c) which would make
March 31, 1996 the new deadline for reaching a decision on your request. However, we expect
to take action prior to that time and will do so as soon as possible. In the interim, if you have
any question on the status of your application, do not hesitate to contact this office.
Very sincerely,

Dear Mr. Williams:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application
for State approval for development of property located adjacent to Old Ferry Dock Road,
man made canal off Croatan Sound, Manes Harbor, Dare County. It was received on
November 1, 1995, and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected
deadline for making a decision is January 15, 1995. 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.
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.
