Page 4 of 5
15) The alignment of the proposed bulkhead must be staked by a field representative of the Division
of Coastal Management within a maximum of thirty days prior to the start of construction. '
Failure to initiate construction within thirty days, or erosion of the shoreline by adverse weather
conditions, will require the alignment to be re -staked by the Division just prior to construction.
16) The bulkhead must be constructed prior to any backfilling activities.
17) The bulkhead must be structurally tight so as to prevent seepage of backfill materials through the
structure.
18) The bulkhead must be solid and constructed of treated wood, concrete slabs, metal sheet piles, or
other suitable materials approved by Department personnel. No excavation is permitted, except
for that which may be required for the construction of the bulkhead wall, riprap, deadmen cables,

Dear Sirs:
Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to
develop a 61-lot residential subdivision, involving the placement of fill in
about 0.17 acres of vegetated and non -vegetated wetlands and shading
approximately 700 square feet of water for a pier, in Norman's and Mason
Creeks, on Stump Sound, at the Cape Island subdivision, across from Villa
Capriani, in North Topsail Beach, Onslow County, North Carolina.
Your proposal has been reviewed and found to be consistent with the
provisions and objectives of general permit No. 198000291. Therefore, you may
commence construction activity in strict accordance with applicable State

MEMORANDUM
TO: Bruce FrekSub
FROM: Roger Sch
SUBJECT: Cape Islaion, Alligator Bay in Onslow County
DATE: October 9, 1996
On September 16 my staff took final action on a request by the Island Development
Group, Inc. of Conway, S. C. and issued the required CAMA and dredge and fill permit
authorizing the subject 61 lot subdivision. I wanted to brief you personally on this matter
because of your Division's position on the development as proposed.
The project was reviewed jointly with the Corps of Engineers. The federal review was
favorable as was that of several state agencies. The Wildlife Resources Commission and the
Division of Environmental Health expressed concerns, and your staff submitted the primary
objection to the proposal. This position is well understood and we share your concerns.
Our statue requires me to make specific "findings" before a permit can be denied.
Findings are of a factual nature and we must be prepared to support and defend those findings
when an applicant appeals a denial. General observations, such as "will have a negative impact",
without supporting documentation do not meet the test required in making a finding sufficient for
denial. When a project can be modified by specific conditions to address areas of concern, the
permit should be issued with those conditions.
In an effort to respond to your concerns and others in the review group and uphold this
Division's responsibilities, this permit was drafted to contain some innovative conditions as well
as strong standard conditions. Wetlands protection, berm maintenance in perpetuity and an
attempt at pier proliferation management are a few of the special provisions. Additionally, a
storm water management permit, and 401 Certification requirements by DWQ, sedimentation
plan from DLR and COE monitoring on wetlands protection are directed toward protecting the
ORW.

...........................
Dear Ms. Russell,
I protest the approval of the Application for Building in the case of Project: Cape
Island Subdivision because the applicants propose to place too many residential
units on and adjacent to Areas if Environmental Concern without adequate
protection of/ consideration for public trust wetlands and waterways.
As yoiA noted in your investigation, if this project is approved there is good
likelihood of severe stress on wildlife habitat, shellfish survival, water quality for
fishery nurseries. The project has the potential for 35-40 private docks, each
causing disturbance to both wetlands and setuaries. The de4velopers should
protect their shorelines by outlawing such destruction within their corporate limits
before you approve their plan.
No adequate plan was submitted for stormwater runoff. While this is intended to
be a "low -density" development the Project has not accounted for short- and long-
term runoff from building/ construction disturbances or the addition of 61
residences on 49 acres of ephemeral barrier island. In good faith, the project
should include adequate stormwater drainage detention ponds and plans to
control runoff associated with disturbing the entire tract during construction. Also
should be included plans to control runoff associated with the increased public
utilization of the "community pier", boat launch and potential boating activities.
The boat ramp and catwalk- encroaching on defined wetlands- will result in
longterm degradation of Norman's Creek. An environmental impact study should
be performed to address the long-term impact of this part of the project. I concur
thyat the developer should submit plans for sedimentation/erosion control devices
before approval of this application as siltation from upstream will quickly be
diverted due to this construction; impacting nurseries and shellfish beds at the
creek's mouth and beyond.
This land was classified by North Topsail Beach for CONSERVATION of AEC,
allowing LIMITED transition ONLY. I believe the applicants must take more care
in conserving the Outstanding Resources than shown in their application before
approval. The project should NOT be approved without WRITTEN
DOCUMENTATION from the North Water and Sewer Company
GUARANTEEING acceptable sewage management for every residential.unit`
approved- and ONLY for the lots which can be fully supported by the sewer, `ECEAG
company. -I AUG 281996
',� MANAGEMENT

Retaining walls and riprap placement should be set back sufficiently landward to
allow for the 3 foot per year erosion as indicated.
Without these added measures being guaranteed the application should be
disapproved in my estimation.
Please forward my comments to appropriate authorities. Thank you for your
support in this effort.
Sincerely,
AUG 2 7 1996

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 2
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed Cape Island Subdivision is located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Town Of
North Topsail Beach, off of Highway 1568 in Onslow County. The property is located across the
Highway from Villa Capriani. The property borders water on three sides, Mason Creek, Alligator Bay,
and Norman's Creek. The consulting engineer has indicated on the application that there is 49.0 acres
of land in the tract. The tract is composed of high ground, federal wetlands and coastal wetlands.
There are no existing, structures on the property. A total of 61 residential lots are proposed in the
subdivision. The permit being applied for would authorize street construction, utility installation, an
ocean access parking area, a community boat ramp, pier and bulkhead.
The Division of Environmental Management has classified the surrounding waters as SA Outstanding
Resource Water (ORW). The Coastal Management Area Of Environmental Concern extends 575 feet
from mean high water landward into the property on the estuarine side. The Division of Marine
F;.sheries has designated the surrounding water as Primary Nursery Area and the Shellfish Sanitation
Section has determined that this area is open to the taking of shellfish. A small portion of the proposed
project falls within Coastal Management's Ocean Hazard Area Of Environmental Concern. In this area
the erosion rate is an average of 3 feet per year as determined by the erosion rate maps of 1986.
The area is classified as Limited Transition by the Town Of North Topsail Beach's Land Use Plan.
The applicant's consultants have submitted plans for a 61-lot residential subdivision. The minimum lot
size is 20,000 square feet. Sheet 2 of 10 of the project plans shows the building envelope overlay plan.
Each lot is buildable without filling federal or coastal wetlands. The applicants have applied for and
been granted a Nationwide 14 Permit for a road crossing from the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The area of the proposed fill is at the access road leading into the site off of Highway 1568. The permit
that has been issued is for 0.16 acres of jurisdictional federal wetlands. An enlarged drawing of this
area is included with the permit package. Consistency with the Coastal Area Management Act will be
decided through this permitting process and is required prior to the commencement of any fill activity.
The proposed project has undergone stormwater review by the Division of Environmental Management
and been approved as a low -density development.
Retaining walls are proposed along portions of the entrance road as indicated on the Grading plans.
The purpose of these retaining walls is to keep fill material from spilling over into the wetlands. A 110
foot long bulkhead is proposed along the estuarine shoreline at the boat ramp/recreation area. The exact
location of this bulkhead will be staked by Coastal Management staff prior to construction. The feature
�= y 4;, w be landward of all wetlands/above mean high water. Rip -rap is proposed at the base of the
bulkhead. The riprap'will also be landward of all wetlands.
The proposed community boat ramp, 15 feet long by 12 feet wide, would have a 3 foot wide wooden
walkway on each side to facilitate boat access. This structure will be located in a recreation area
between lots 50 and 51, at the end of Sailview Drive. It will enter into the waters of Norman's Creek.
A small coastal marsh fringe of Spartina alterniflora exists in the general vicinity of the proposed ramp.
Some portion of the Spartina marsh would be filled to install this ramp. However, the exact amount
appears to be less than the 180 square feet that we have calculated as "impacted". Sheet 10 of 10 shows
the specifics on the boatiamp, 3' catwalks, and bulkhead. Our recommendation is for the boatramp and
catwalk not to exceed 1/3 the width of Norman's Creek (25' waterward of the bulkhead) so as to allow
for navigation.

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 3
The applicants also propose a community pier that would be located within a 10 foot wide public access
easement between lots 32 and 33. This pier is proposed to be approximately 100 feet long by 6 feet
wide. An additional 50 foot section would be called a "walkway" and would span across wetlands
landward the mean high water mark. This pier would extend into the waters of Alligator Bay. At the
waterward end of the pier a 10 by 10 covered dock is planned (referred to on the plans as a gazebo).
This "community" pier was requested or required by the Town Of North Topsail Beach as an estuarine
public access spot. Anyone would be able to use it for fishing, crabbing, etc. Use would not be
restricted to residents of the subdivision (theoretically). There are no boat slips being proposed in
conjunction with, this pier, although it would be impossible to prevent someone from tying a boat to the
support pilings. The length of the proposed pier, 100 feet, seems to be an arbitrary choice, with
nothing perceptible gained between 50 and 100 feet. Recommendations regarding this structure and
future permitting of individual piers, docks, boathouses and ramps on lots with water access are made
under the "Anticipated Impacts" and "Recommendations" section of this report.
Sailview Drive and Cape Lane will be private streets maintained by the home owner's association.
There are approximately 3,000 linear feet of street proposed at 50-60 feet wide (average) plus shoulders
and medians in some areas. Utilities to be installed include water and sewer. The water will be
provided by Onslow County. The sewer service approval is pending. North Topsail Water & Sewer,
a private company, provides sewer service to this area, but their facility is at capacity. At the time of
this writing, it is our understanding that sewer capacity for 24 lots has been granted to the developer
for this subdivision.
The proposed ocean front parking area will be approximately 100' by 200' in size. It will provide
parking for the residents of Cape Island. An existing dune crossover/beach access for the Wyndy Dunes
Subdivision will be shared with the Cape Island Residents. A xerox copy of the Wyndy Dunes plan is
included with the permit package. This plans indicates that the proposed ocean access parking area is
well landward of the 90' CAMA Oceanfront Setback for this area. There are no frontal or primary
dunes in the area where the parking is planned.
The Town Of North Topsail Beach Land Use Plan provides a map from the National Register of
Historic Places. That map designates this property as a recorded archaeological site which means that
this area has high probability for containing significant archaeological remains. Historically significant
land is sometimes characterized by extensive concentrations of discarded shells or shell midden found
at the site. The North Carolina Division of Archives and History will be asked to comment on this
development plan and provide recommendations for preservation of historically significant artifacts.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
Potential impacts associated with this project include fill of federal and coastal wetlands, shading of
wetlands and public trust waters, increased runoff caused by installation of impervious surfaces and
associated stresses on wildlife habitat created by increased human activity. Sedimentation/erosion
control devices will be needed in order to avoid siltation and inadvertent filling caused by the proposed
land disturbances. Potential impacts to an archeological resource should be thoroughly evaluated by
the appropriate authority and follow-up made accordingly. The Division supports their
recommendations.

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 4
The Cape Island project has 61 lots with a potential for 35-40 private piers, docks and boathouses plus
the community pier and dock -should it be authorized under this permit. Since no apparent use is
gained by making this community pier 100' long, it will be this writer's recommendation that the
structure be shortened to 50'. As the rules are currently written, potential boat slips number at least
160, plus a small number that could'tie up to the community dock. A marked increase in runoff,
boating use and construction in the water may result in negative water quality impacts.
The developer of this subdivision, Island Development Group, Ins. has no plans to restrict the individual
lot owners from building piers, docks, ramps, boathouses, etc. Currently, the Division allows each lot
waterfront owner to build a pier, a 500 square foot dock, a 500 square foot boathouse, a boatramp, and
maintain mooring slips for four boats.. However, based on the exceptional quality of the surrounding
waters, my recommendation is for minimization of size and type of structures and number of boats
moored in the public trust areas surrounding this development.
Anticipated impacts to the oceanfront ecosystem from the proposed parking area should be minimal.

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 2
9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed Cape Island Subdivision is located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Town Of
North Topsail Beach, off of Highway 1568 in Onslow County. The property is located across the
Highway from Villa Capriani. The property borders water on three sides, Mason Creek, Alligator Bay,
and Norman's Creek. The consulting engineer has indicated on the application that there is 49.0 acres
of land in the tract. The tract is composed of high ground, federal wetlands and coastal wetlands.
There are no existing structures on the property. A total of 61 residential lots are proposed in the
subdivision. The permit being applied for would authorize street construction, utility installation, an
ocean access parking area, a community boat ramp, pier and bulkhead.
The Division of Environmental Management has classified the surrounding waters as SA Outstanding
Resource Water (ORW). The Coastal Management Area Of Environmental Concern extends 575 feet
from mean high water landward into the property on the estuarine side. The Division of Marine
F;sheries has designated the surrounding water as Primary Nursery Area and the Shellfish Sanitation
Section has determined that this area is open to the taking of shellfish. A small portion of the proposed
project falls within Coastal Management's Ocean Hazard Area Of Environmental Concern. In this area
the erosion rate is an average of 3 feet per year as determined by the erosion rate maps of 1986.
The area is classified as Limited Transition by the Town Of North Topsail Beach's Land Use Plan.
The applicant's consultants have submitted plans for a 61-lot residential subdivision. The minimum lot
size is 20,000 square feet. Sheet 2 of 10 of the project plans shows the building envelope overlay plan.
Each lot is buildable without filling federal or coastal wetlands. The applicants have applied for and
been granted a Nationwide 14 Permit for a road crossing from the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The area of the proposed fill is at the access road leading into the site off of Highway 1568. The permit
that has been issued is for 0.16 acres of jurisdictional federal wetlands. An enlarged drawing of this
area is included with the permit package. Consistency with the Coastal Area Management Act will be
decided through this permitting process and is required prior to the commencement of any fill activity.
The proposed project has undergone stormwater review by the Division of Environmental Management
and been approved as a low -density development.
Retaining walls are proposed along portions of the entrance road as indicated on the Grading plans.
The purpose of these retaining walls is to keep fill material from spilling over into the wetlands. A 110
foot long bulkhead is proposed along the estuarine shoreline at the boat ramp/recreation area. The exact
location of this bulkhead will be staked by Coastal Management staff prior to construction. The feature
will be landward of all wetlands/above mean high water. Rip -rap is proposed at the base of the
bulkhead. The riprap will also be landward of all wetlands.
The proposed community boat ramp, 15 feet long by 12 feet wide, would have a 3 foot wide wooden
walkway on each side to facilitate boat access. This structure will be located in a recreation area
between lots 50 and 51, at the end of Sailview Drive. It will enter into the waters of Norman's Creek.
A small coastal marsh fringe of Spartina alterniflora exists in the general vicinity of the proposed ramp.
Some portion of the Spartina marsh would be filled to install this ramp. However, the exact amount
appears to be less than the 180 square feet that we have calculated as "impacted". Sheet 10 of 10 shows
the specifics on the boatramp, 3' catwalks, and bulkhead. Our recommendation is for the boatramp and
catwalk not to exceed 1/3 the width of Norman's Creek (25' waterward of the bulkhead) so as to allow
for navigation.

A '
CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 3
The applicants also propose a community pier that would be located within a 10 foot wide public access
easement between lots 32 and 33. This pier is proposed to be approximately 100 feet long by 6 feet
wide. An additional 50 foot section would be called a "walkway" and would span across wetlands
landward the mean high water mark. This pier would extend into the waters of Alligator Bay. At the
waterward end of the pier a 10 by 10 covered dock is planned (referred to on the plans as a gazebo).
This "community" pier was requested or required by the Town Of North Topsail Beach as an estuarine
public access spot. Anyone would be able to use it for fishing, crabbing, etc. Use would not be
restricted to residents of the subdivision (theoretically). There are no boat slips being proposed in
conjunction with, this pier, although it would be impossible to prevent someone from tying a boat to the
support pilings. The length of the proposed pier, 100 feet, seems to be an arbitrary choice, with
nothing perceptible gained between 50 and 100 feet. Recommendations regarding this structure and
future permitting of individual piers, docks, boathouses and ramps on lots with water access are made
under the "Anticipated Impacts" and "Recommendations" section of this report.
Sailview Drive and Cape Lane will be private streets maintained by the home owner's association.
There are approximately 3,000 linear feet of street proposed at 50-60 feet wide (average) plus shoulders
and medians in some areas. Utilities to be installed include water and sewer. The water will be
provided by Onslow County. The sewer service approval is pending. North Topsail Water & Sewer,
a private company, provides sewer service to this area, but their facility is at capacity. At the time of
this writing, it is our understanding that sewer capacity for 24 lots has been granted to the developer
for this subdivision.
The proposed ocean front parking area will be approximately 100' by 200' in size. It will provide
parking for the residents of Cape Island. An existing dune crossover/beach access for the Wyndy Dunes
Subdivision will be shared with the Cape Island Residents. A xerox copy of the Wyndy Dunes plan is
included with the permit package. This plans indicates that the proposed ocean access parking area is
well landward of the 90' CAMA Oceanfront Setback for this area. There are no frontal or primary
dunes in the area where the parking is planned.
The Town Of North Topsail Beach Land Use Plan provides a map from the National Register of
Historic Places. That map designates this property as a recorded archaeological site which means that
this area has high probability for containing significant archaeological remains. Historically significant
land is sometimes characterized by extensive concentrations of discarded shells or shell midden found
at the site. The North Carolina Division of Archives and History will be asked to comment on this
development plan and provide recommendations for preservation of historically significant artifacts.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
Potential impacts associated with this project include fill of federal and coastal wetlands, shading of
wetlands and public trust waters, increased runoff caused by installation of impervious surfaces and
associated stresses on wildlife habitat created by increased human activity. Sedimentation/erosion
control devices will be needed in order to avoid siltation and inadvertent filling caused by the proposed
land disturbances. Potential impacts to an archeological resource should be thoroughly evaluated by
the appropriate authority and follow-up made accordingly. The Division supports their
recommendations.

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
Page 4
The Cape Island project has 61 lots with a potential for 35-40 private piers, docks and boathouses plus
the community pier and dock -should it be authorized under this permit. Since no apparent use is
gained by making this community pier 100' long, it will be this writer's recommendation that the
structure be shortened to 50'. As the rules are currently written, potential boat slips number at least
160, plus a small number that could tie up to the community dock. A marked increase in runoff,
boating use and construction in the water may result in negative water quality impacts.
The developer of this subdivision, Island Development Group, Ins. has no plans to restrict the individual
lot owners from building piers, docks, ramps, boathouses, etc. Currently, the Division allows each lot
waterfront owner to build a pier, a 500 square foot dock, a 500 square foot boathouse, a boatramp, and
maintain mooring slips for four boats. However, based on the exceptional quality of the surrounding
waters, my recommendation is for minimization of size and type of structures and number of boats
moored in the,public trust areas surrounding this development.
Anticipated impacts to the oceanfront ecosystem from the proposed parking area should be minimal.

•Recommendations for State Permit - CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION
The Wilmington District Office, Division of Coastal Management, offers the following recommendations
with regard to this permit application:
�" A. No permit should be issued until sewer or septic is available to treat the wastewater from all 61 lots.
B. No permit should be issued until Archives and History is satisfied that any archeological resource
present is protected.
C. No permit should be issued without the concurrence from the Division of Marine Fisheries,
Shellfish Sanitation and the Division of Environmental Management.
Provided A, B and C as stated above are met, the District Office recommends that permit be issued with
the following stipulations and conditions:
1. The proposed "community pier" as shown on the development plan shall be limited to a maximum
of 50' long as measured from mean high water. Boat cleats or other mechanisms for tying or mooring
boats are prohibited.
2. The proposed boat ramp and piers on either side of the ramp will extend no more than 1/3 of the
way across the Norman's Creek channel or a maximum distance of 25' waterward of mean high water.
3. Private piers and docks within this subdivision will be limited in size, length, and number of boat
Z sups to minimize public trust usage and water quality impacts. Specific limitations will be imposed at
the time of permit application.
4. The authorized structures and associated activity must not cause an unacceptable interference with
navigation.
5. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free use by the public of all
navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized work.
6. This permit authorizes only the pier, bulkhead, boat ramp and other structures and uses located in
1 { %p-or over the water that are expressly and specifically set forth in the permit application. No other
structures, whether floating or stationary, may be installed without permit modification. No non -water
dependent uses of structures may be conducted on, in, or over public trust waters without permit
modification.
2 7. No sewage, whether treated or untreated, shall be discharged at any time from boats using the ramp
facility. Any sewage discharge at the boat ramp facility shall be considered a violation of this permit
for which the permittee is responsible. This prohibition shall be applied and enforced throughout the
L1 entire existence of the permitted structures.
\v 8. The permittee must install and maintain, at his expense, any signal lights and signals prescribed by
t`P U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, on authorized facilities.
' 4K 9.. In accordance with 15A NCAC 7H.0308 (a), no seawall or riprap revetments will be allowed in the
future should any portion of the beach access parking lot or entrance road into the subdivision become
threatened from erosion.

CAPE ISLAND SUBDIVISION - RECOXIMENDATIONS

,..146
10. The proposed beach access parking lot, walkways, dune crossovers, and other areas requiring lights
64.4, should be illuminated with light fixtures located close to the ground to minimize casting direct light on
�. the beach and dunes. (This is to protect hatching loggerhead sea turtles.)
11. In order to protect water quality, runoff from the construction must not visibly increase the amount
b of suspended sediments in adjacent waters.
stih -}2. The Division of Environmental Management approved this project under stormwater management
rules of the Environmental Management Commission on May 9, 1996. Any violation of or deviation
from the plan approved by DEM will be considered a violation of this CAMA permit.
13. The alignment of the proposed bulkhead must be staked by a, Field Representative of the Division
)� 3 of Coastal Management within a maximum of thirty days prior to the start of construction. Failure to
initiate construction within thirty days, or erosion of the shoreline by adverse weather conditions, will
require the alignment to be re -staked by the Division just prior to construction.
1� 9 14. The bulkhead must be constructed prior to any backfilling activities.
/ 7 15. The bulkhead must be structurally tight so as to prevent seepage of backfrll materials through the
structure.
�3 16. The bulkhead must be solid and constructed of treated wood, concrete slabs, metal sheet piles, or
other suitable materials approved by Department personnel. No excavation is permitted, except for that
which may be required for the construction of the bulkhead wall, riprap, deadmen cables, etc. This
permit does not authorize any excavation waterward of the approved alignment.
9 17. All backfrll material will be obtained from a highground source and confined behind the permitted
bulkhead. The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants, except in trace quantities. Metal
products, organic materials, or unsightly debris will not be used.
Z b 18. No marsh grass will be excavated and or filled for the bulkhead and riprap installation.
J-D 19. The riprap material must be free from loose dirt or any other pollutant. It must be of a size
Q�� sufficient to prevent its movement from the site by wave or current action.
20. The riprap material must consist of clean rock or masonry materials such as, but not limited to,
14W granite. Materials such as tires, car bodies, scrap metal, paper products, tree limbs, wood debris,
organic material or similar material are not considered riprap.
21. The project site is located in an area having a high probability of containing cultural resources such
as artifacts, human remains, etc. If such materials are encountered, the permittee must immediately
stop work and notify the District Engineer, Wilmington Corps Of Engineers at 910 251-4629 and the
North Carolina Division of Coastal Management at 910 395-3900.

22. An archaeological investigation sufficient to determine the nature, extent, condition, and significance
of resources which might be adversely affected by the proposed construction shall be conducted subject
to the approval of the Division of Archives and History, through the Division of Coastal Management.
23. No land disturbing activities will be initiated prior to evaluation of the archaeological investigation
by the Division of Archives and History. Upon the approval of Archives and History, through Coastal
Management, construction may proceed in a progressive fashion.
24. A scope of work for the necessary archaeological investigations must be prepared by the Division
of Archives and History in conjunction with the permittee. In order to initiate development of this
document, the permittee must contact a representative of the Division at 919 733-7342 or by writing

MEMORANDUM
TO: John R. Parker
Major Permits Processing Coordinator
FROM: Zo6 D. Bruner, District Planner
SUBJECT: CAMA/DREDGE & FILL Permit Application Review
Island Development Group/Cape Island Subdivision, NTB Onslow
DATE: June 19, 1996
This permit consistency opinion is based on my review of the Island Development Cape Island
Subdivision permit application, the Field Investigation Report (J.Russell, 6/5/96), and my
understanding and interpretation of the policies presented in the Town of North Topsail Beach
Land Use Plan Update.
The applicant proposes a 61-lot residential subdivision with amenities. Streets, utility installation
and amenities including oceanside parking would be covered under this permit. The adjacent
1 waters are classified Outstanding Resource Waters, primary nursery area and Open to the taking
`• of shellfish. The site is within both the Estuarine Shoreline AEC and Ocean Hazard AEC (very
small portion.)
LAND USE CLASSIFICATION:Limited Transition/Conservation
CLASSIFICATION DESCRIPTION:
Limited Transition:
...These lands should not include areas which meet the definition of Conservation Land.
Conservation:
In North Topsail Beach's jurisdiction, the environmentally sensitive areas identified as areas of
environmental concern [and therefore in the conservation class] ..include coastal wetlands, ocean
hazard AEC's estuarine waters, estuarine shorelinespublic trust areas and outstanding Resource
Water ... the complete "conservation" class is not attempted to be graphically portrayed on the Land
Classification Map. Examples of other areas which will also be considered "conservation" include
major 404 wetlands... areas that are unique, fragile, or hazardous for development..;and lands that
provide necessary habitat conditions, or primary nursery areas. (emphasis added)... specific allowable
uses in the Conservation Class shall include:
2. Water oriented uses such as private piers, and docks, only if consistent with Resource and
Protection and Production Management policies and are shown not to cause detriment to the
estuarine waters, ORW's or other Conservation areas...
3. Necessary utility service lines, such as water, sewer, electrical, natural gas, etc., when it is
demonstrated that the ecological system of the Conservation area will not be significantly
altered.As noted in item 1 above, development of and\or extension of necessary utilities and
services will not be done merely as a stimulus for additional growth and development, only
to the extent needed to meet an existing or expected health problem where new development
is allowed or to serve existing development.

RELATED POLICIES AND IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES: Please see Attachment A
COMMENTS:
The Policies and Land Classification presented in the Town of North Topsail Beach 1991 Land
Use Plan strive to protect the Outstanding Resource Waters and other areas classified
"Conservation" in North Topsail Beach. The intent of the policies is, in part, to enhance and
protect the quality of the waters and to preserve their function as marine and wildlife habitat.
The Town is aware that development may negatively impact the natural resources, and has
specific policies which address their concerns.
Land Use Plan policies also protect the dunes and related vegetation and encourages re -
vegetation as needed. The Plan also requires dune "crossovers" or walkways be built to prevent
wear on the dune vegetation.
Finally, Land Use Plan policy supports the protection of the Town's cultural (archaeological)
resources.
This project will be consistent with the Land Use Plan if the following conditions are met (please
read Attachment A, Policies to understand the importance of these resources to the Town):
1. All suggestions/concerns from review agencies and CAMA representative must be
considered in the conditions section of this permit;
2. all conditions placed on this permit shall be followed;
3. the potential of 35-40 piers/docks (maximum 320 boats docked and 40,000 square feet
of pier/boathouse construction) at full build -out of the development in combination with
the requested community piers/docks of this application and the associated boat traffic
shall not have a detrimental effect on the ORW, nursery areas or shell fish population;
4. construction within the AEC (basically, the entire site) be carefully monitored for
sedimentation and erosion control, trash containment (windblown garbage to be
prohibited), and toxic dumping prohibited;
5. access to the ocean beach from the parking lot be clearly directed using a dune crossover
to discourage foot traffic over the dune; and
6. Division of Archives and History notified of the location of this site.
The potential for pollution of the ORW by this and similar construction projects is high. Every
effort should be made to mitigate for these impacts. Ideally, individual piers and docks would
be limited to no covered areas and only one boat slip, and the community pier eliminated or
shortened following the suggestions of the Field Investigation Report.

RELATED POLICIES AND IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES:
A-1. Areas of Environmental Concern: North Topsail Beach's overall policy and management objective for the Estuarine System, consistent
with the State 7-11" standards, is "to give the highest priority to the protection and perpetuate their biological, social, economic, and
aesthetic values and to ensure that development occurring within these AECs is compatible with natural characteristics so as to minimize
the likelihood of significant loss of private property and public resources... for development within the Estuarine System. (p.48)
a. Coastal Wetlands (p. 49):
1. It shall be the policy of North Topsail Beach that the first priority for uses of land in these areas should be the
allowance of uses which promote "conservation" of the sensitive areas, with conservation meaning the lack of imposition
of irreversible damage to the wetlands.
b. Estuarine Waters and Estuarine Shorelines (p.49):
...the Town is very much aware that protection of the estuarine waters and adjacent estuarine shorelines is of paramount
importance to maintaining the delicate balance necessary for the healthy proliferation of marine life and waterfowl... As
one of its toR priorities, North Topsail Beach wants to protect the existing relative pristine nature of these waters.
1. In order to promote the quality of the estuarine waters as well as minimize the likelihood of significant property loss
due to erosion or flooding, North Topsail Beach will permit only those uses which are compatible with both the dynamic
nature of the estuarine shorelines and the values of the estuarine system. Residential —use may be permitted within the
estuarine shoreline (75' inward to the mean high waterline of the estuarine waters; 575' from the mean high waterline
of estuarine ORW's), provided that:
a. A substantial chance of pollution occurring from the development does not exist;
b. Natural barriers to erosion are preserved and not substantially weakened or eliminated;
c. A vegetated 40' buffer is maintained wherein removal of any vegetation 3" or greater at the base is
prohibited, unless such provision prohibits a permitted use. Removal of such vegetation shall be minimized;
e. Standards of the NC Sedimentation and Pollution Control Act 1978 and as amended 1990, are met;
f. Development does not have a significant adverse impact on estuarine resources;
3. The top priority of North Topsail Beach is for the AEC estuarine shoreline to be maintained in a manner consistent
with state and local development standards.
d. Outstanding Resource Waters Estuarine Shoreline
1. The density and types of development in the 575' ORW impact area should be regulated in order to protect the quality
of the waters. At a minimum, State imposed standards should be adhered to. (see page 56, items 5 Development within
Impact Areas) '
2. Commercial or recreational marinas abutting ORW's are considered to be an undesirable use of land and waters in
the ORW area.
A-2. Areas of Environmental Concern: Ocean Hazards Areas
4. The Town of North Topsail Beach recognizes the importance of its frontal dunes and related vegetation, which add
stability and natural protection to the barrier island. As a general policy, the Town does not want to see any development
which will destroy these dunes.
S. The Town of North Topsail Beach believes that only constructed "walkways" or cross walks, should be used to cover
over the dunes.
6. For existing and previously disturbed dunes, North Topsail Beach believes that efforts to replant or re -vegetate these
vital ocean front landforms, should take place.
Implementation
3. Oceanside developers, by ordinance (subdivision and/or zoning) will be encouraged to provide appropriately
constructed dune crossovers. (p.55)
A-3. Physical Constraints to Development:
c. Cultural Resources: The significant cultural and archaeological resources of North Topsail Beach,... have been documented.
The Town recognizes that these are valuable resources which need to be protected. In order to ensure proper identification and
preservation of significant archaeological resources, North Topsail Beach will notify the NC Division of Archives prior to the
development of previously undisturbed areas...
d. Development in Proximity to ORW's (p. 56):
(1) ...North Topsail Beach, by all means desires to see the integrity of (the Stump Sound ORW) waters enhanced
and maintained.
(4) All development within the ORW impact area shall be setback according the requirements established by the
State of North Carolina and shall maintain consistency with previously stated buffer requirements.
(5) Maximum lot coverage within the ORW impact area shall be 25%.
B-5. Impacts of Any Development on Resources(p.61):
All permitted development, according to the Town's Zoning Ordinance, shall strictly comply with State CAMA use standards
(7H), so as not to cause adverse impacts upon any AEC or other fragile resource identified in this plan. Both residential and
commercial development may be permitted within the estuarine system (including ORW), as long as they comply with other
Resource Protection policies of North Topsail Beach.
C-1. Community Attitude Toward Growth(p.62):
a. Generally, North Topsail Beach believes in managing and directing the Town's growth and development in balance with
environmental protection and enhancement...
b. That population growth and land development should be based on: 1) the suitability of land to accommodate the use ...

We have reviewed the permit application by Island Development Group for the Cape Island
Subdivision in Onslow County and entered into protracted discussions with the applicant
due to the presence of archaeological site 31ON190. Site 31ON190 is believed to
encompass the entire high ground portion of the tract and is considered potentially eligible
for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Consultations with the applicant have
resulted in their developing with Garrow and Associates, Inc., an archaeological consulting
firm, an agreement to cover the needed testing and evaluation of the site, plus data
recovery and mitigation activities if warranted.
Based on our consultations with the applicant, we recommend that the following condition
be made part of any permit issued for the project:
The permittee shall undertake and complete the Scope egffflork outlined,
-4- Garrow & Associates, Inc., Cape Island Agreement atta h;;'and, prior to
any construction activities other than the road work and the associated installation J
of utilities, carry out the Phase III Work fieldwork defined in the agreement.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for
Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.

FROM: P.A. Wojciechowsk
SUBJECT: CAMA/DREDGE AND FILL PERMIT APPLICATION
Island Development Group (Cape Island Subdivision)
The Division of Marine Fisheries offers the following comments on the subject
application as provided in General Statute 113-131,
The project area borders on three Primary Nursery Areas (and very productive shellfish
areas), Mason Creek, Alligator Bay, and Norman's Creek). The Alligator Bay area is one of the
most productive estuarine areas in coastal North Carolina. These waters carry the highest
water quality designation: PNA, SA, ORW. This project is only one of many projects affecting
these sensitive areas. The proliferation of developments along these water bodies will have
a long-term effect on the production of shellfish and other species which thrive in these
Primary Nursery Areas, as well as on water quality. The preservation of the fisheries is a public
trust responsibility of the State. All coastal resources managers have the authority and
responsibility to not only take in account the State's fisheries resources, but to also consider
the ecological system sustaining the fisheries resource whenever public trust lands or waters
are at issue.
It is our very strong view that these developments are being permitted without
adequately considering the cumulative impacts that they present. Many unanswered questions
must be addressed prior to approval of this permit or any future development in this area:
What will be the effect of the extensive land clearing? Will run-off from these cleared lands
result in degradation of the waters? Will these developments cause shellfish closures? What
is the impact of the multitude of piers and potential piers on water quality, public trust
resources, and navigation? What impact will the filling of the wetlands have on the nutrient
flow?
Over the last several years we have raised serious questions about the cumulative
impacts of several developments in the AlligatorBay/Mason Creek area. Nonetheless, permits
have been issued. It is our professional opinion that cumulative impacts will result in
degradation of water quality and habitat. In order to properly consider the cumulative impact
of this project it is strongly recommended that an Environmental Impact Statement be prepared
prior to any further action on this proposed project. If an EIS can not be prepared to address
this Divisions concerns, we must insist that this project be denied.

104-e-4 This area is a popular shellfishing area and is open to harvesting. The project description
section of the Field Investigation Report indicates that a possible 160 boat slips could be
constructed without major CAMA development permits. Addition of residential piers on the lots
affronting Alligator. Bay, Mason Creek and Norman's Creek would require reevaluation if a
recommended closure is required. If developement continues in this area this could at a later date
jeopardize the open status of the adjacent waters.

Major Permits Processing Section

FROM: Franklin T. McBride, Manager
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: June 25, 1996
SUBJECT: CAMA/Dredge and Fill Permit Application for Island Development Group/Cape
Island Subdivision, Town of Topsail Beach, between Alligator Bay, Mason Creek
and Norman's Creek, Onslow County.
Biologists on the Wildlife Resources Commission staff have reviewed this permit
application and are familiar with habitat values of the project area. A site visit was conducted on
June 20, 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 construct a 61-lot subdivision with amenities. The proposed
amenities include a boat ramp with docks, 110 ft. bulkhead, and 100 ft. x 6 ft. pier with a 10 ft. x
10 ft. gazebo at the waterward end. Utilities to be installed include water and sewer. The water
will be provided by Onslow County. The sewer service approval is pending. North Topsail
Water & Sewer, a private company, provides sewer service to this area, but their facility is at
capacity. Waters at the site are classified as SA-ORW and are open to shellfish harvest. The
waters are also designated as primary nursery area by Division of Marine Fisheries. Mason
Creek has shellfish leases and is said to be a highly productive area.
We are very concerned that the high quality resources of Alligator Bay and Mason Creek
will be significantly degraded by primary and secondary impacts associated with development.
Land surrounding Mason Creek is beginning to undergo intensive development from this
subdivision and a proposed 38-lot Crystal Shores Subdivision. Prior to the construction of these
two subdivisions, steps should be taken to minimize the impacts to the primary nurseries, open

Cape Island Subdivision

June 25, 1996
shellfish areas and the shellfish leases. The Town of North Topsail Beach Land Use Plan Map
designates this property as a recorded archaeological site which means that this area has high
probability for containing significant archaeological remains.
The developer of this subdivision, Island Development Group, has no plans to restrict the
individual lot owners from building piers, docks, ramps, boathouses, etc. The Cape Island
project has 61 lots with a potential for 35 to 40 private piers, docks and boathouses plus the
community pier and boat ramp should it be authorized under this permit. Each private pier can
conceivably have 4 boat slips. The potential private boat slips for this development number at
least 160, plus a small number that could tie up to the community dock. Increase in runoff,
boating use and construction in the water will likely result in negative water quality impacts in
waters designated as SA-ORW, primary nursery, open to shellfish harvest and contain leased
shellfish areas.
We realize that a permit will be issued for this project; therefore, we recommend the
permit be conditioned as follows:
1. We recommend that only community boat docks be allowed and that deed restrictions
be placed on all lots prohibiting the construction of private piers and docks.
� o ` 2. To protect the wetland buffers between the uplands and the surface waters we
recommend that subdivision covenants prohibit individual lot owners from filling
wetlands.
3. To minimize turbidity impacts in a primary nursery and an area open to shellfish
harvest we recommend that water dependent construction be prohibited between April
1 and September 30.
G 4. Wet cement in contact with water is toxic tt tic organisms; thereforel�
O Teeommne"the cement slabs for the boat ram tie poured on an upland site and
pushed into place once hardened.
5. Since the waters are designated as SA-ORW, primary nursery, open to shellfish
1 harvest and contain leased shellfish areas, the permit should clearly state that no
dredging will be allowed for this project or for future projects.
6. In order to fully document the quality of the surface waters and productivity of the
primary nursery and shellfish areas, we request the applicant or their consultant
sample the areas of Alligator Bay, Mason Creek and Norman's Creek adjacent to the
project. Sampling should occur prior to any additional impacts. For correct sampling
procedures contact DEM Water Quality Section and the Division of Marine Fisheries.
We appreciate the opportunity to review and comment of this project. If you need further
assistance or additional information, please contact William Wescott at [phone].

Dear Mr. Parker:
Reference the application of Island Development Group, Inc. for a
Department of the Army permit to develop a 61-lot residential subdivision,
involving the placement of fill in approximately 0.17 acres of vegetated and
non -vegetated wetlands and shading approximately 700 square feet of water for
a pier, in Norman's and Mason Creeks, on Stump Sound, at the Cape Island
subdivision, across from Villa Capriani, in North Topsail Beach, Onslow,
County, North Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented
by the application and your field investigation report.
We recommend that the following condition(s) be included in the State
authorization:
1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict
compliance with the permit plans.
2. No excavated or fill materials will be placed at any time in any
' 9vegetated wetlands or waters other than the material placed within the
footprint of the road crossing.
3. No vegetated wetlands will be excavated.
4. The permittee's scheme of development, of which the authorized work
is a part, contemplates the presence of structures and their attendant
utilities on lands subject to an easement in favor of the United States for
Q the operation, maintenance, improvement, and enlargement of the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW). Accordingly, the permittee will be required to
remove such structures and improvements at his own expense in the event that,
in the judgment of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers acting on behalf of the
United States, the lands are needed at any time for any purpose within the
scope of the easement. Permanent buildings will not be constructed within the
easement.
v 5. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and
free use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the
authorized work. Use of the permitted activity must not interfere with the
public's right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the Uni3AIANAONeNT
States.

A I .
>--10 6. It is possible that the authorized structure may be damaged by
wavewash from passing vessels. The issuance of this permit does not relieve
the permittee from taking all proper steps to ensure the integrity of the
permitted structure and the safety of moored boats. The permittee will not
hold the United States liable for any such damage.
^ %3 7. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition
and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The
permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he abandons the permitted
activity without having it transferred to a third party.
8. This Department of the Army permit does not obviate the need to
obtain other Federal, State, or local authorizations required by law.
9. This permit does not grant any property rights or exclusive
�- privileges.
Questions or comments may be addressed to the undersigned at telephone

MANAGEMENT
This is the report of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(Service) on Public Notice (PN) ID #199603660, dated June 12,
1996. Island Development Group has applied for a Department of
the Army (DOA) permit to develop a 61-lot subdivision with
streets, utility installation, and amenities. The proposed
development is within the jurisdictional limits of the Town of
North Topsail Beach, Onslow County, North Carolina. This report
is submitted in accordance with the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d)
and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended
(16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). It is to be used in your determination of
compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency's 404(b)(1)
Guidelines (40 CFR 230) and in your public interest review (33
CFR 320.4) as they relate to protection of fish and wildlife
resources.
According to the field investigation report by the North Carolina
Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM), the direct impacts of the
proposed development would be limited. The project would fill
approximately 0.16 acres of wetlands for construction of an
access road, 180 ft2 of a Spartina alterniflora coastal fringe
marsh for a community boat ramp, and seven acres of uplands for
other amenities. The report notes that each lot would be
buildable without filling Federal or coastal wetlands. However,
the report states that the subdivision has the potential for 35-
40 private piers, docks, and boathouses in addition to the
community pier and dock. These additional facilities are due to
the fact that the NCDCM currently allows each owner of a
waterfront lot to build a pier, a 500 ft2 dock, a 500 ftz
boathouse, a boat ramp, and maintain mooring slips for four
boats.

The field report states that wetlands in the project area have
been designated a primary nursery area by the North Carolina
Division of Marine Fisheries. A primary nursery area is an
estuarine area where fish may undergo initial post -larval
development. The report also states that surrounding waters have
been classified as Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW) by the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality.
The Service has reviewed the National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Map
and an aerial photograph of the project site. The NWI indicates
that portions of the project shoreline contain estuarine,
intertidal wetlands with persistent emergent vegetation. Tidal
inundation is shown as both regular and irregular. These data
are consistent with the plant community known as a coastal marsh
which was mentioned in the field report.
Service policy regarding mitigation of damage to habitats
considers both the value of those habitats to fish and wildlife
and their relative scarcity. The Service considers coastal
marshes to be very productive ecosystems and to provide both
direct and indirect support for many species of fish and
wildlife. During low tide intertidal flats are important
foraging areas for many species of shorebirds and long-legged
wading birds. Estuarine fish in North Carolina are dominated by
species residing in the estuary as larvae or juveniles, using the
estuary as nursery or feeding habitat, but spawning offshore in
the Atlantic Ocean. Abundant species in the "nursery use"
category include Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus),
Atlantic croaker (Micropogon undulatus), spot (Leiostomus
xanthurus), star drum (Stellifer lanceolatus), mullet (Mugil
spp.), and weakfish (Cynoscion regalis). Species that are
estuarine endemics, or permanent residents, are also abundant.
Species in this group include bay anchovies (Anchoa mitchilli),
killifishes (Fundulus spp.), and silversides (Menidia spp.).
Anadromous species, such as blueback herring (Alosa aestivalis),
American shad (Alosa sapidissima) hickory shad (Alosa mediocris),
alewife (Alosa pseudoharenaus) striped bass (Morone saxatilis),
and Atlantic sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrhynchus), use estuaries as
transportation routes to freshwater spawning and nursery areas.
As noted, the direct losses of wetlands for the proposed
development would be relatively minor. However, the Service is
concerned that the. resent application does not su icien
- �- ---
address the likely indirect or -secondary impacts of this
residepment. Secondary impacts are environmental
effects that are caused by or will result from the proposed
action. While secondary impacts happen later in time, they are
reasonably certain to occur.
Within the proposed project each waterfront landowner is
authorized to build a pier, a dock, a boat ramp, a boathouse,
maintain mooring slips. The combined impact of these facilities
could result in the permanent loss or degradation of over 1,000
ftz of estuarine wetlands per lot. If the maximum number of

waterfront lots remains at 40, as stated in the DCM field report,
the proposed development could ultimately impact approximately
40,000 ft2 (0.92 acre) of estuarine wetlands.
The Service believes that the loss or degradation of almost one
acre of estuarine wetlands in the project area would adversely
affect fish and wildlife resources in the Alligator Bay area.
The direct loss of estuarine wetlands would reduce primary
production in the area and eliminate the food source and habitat
for many invertebrates which are the base of the food chain for
important species of fish, birds, and coastal mammals.
The Service maintains that it is more appropriate to consider the
environmental impacts of a coastal subdivision as a single unit
rather than a host of very small individual impacts. Our
evaluation of the permit application suggests that some future
wetland impacts are likely after the subdivision is constructed.
While the precise amount of wetland losses cannot be determined,
it is likely that future landowners will eventually avail
themselves of legal opportunities to add facilities to their
property. It is conceivable that future impacts could occur at a
rate of only one to two thousand square feet per year for the
next 20-40 years. It is unlikely that any of these small,
individual applications would be questioned or require any type
of compensatory mitigation. Therefore, the Service believes that
the best opportunity to preserve valuable coastal wetlands is to
address the issues of avoidance, minimization, and/or
compensation at the largest possible scale of development.
The Service requests that the Corps evaluate the likely secondary
impacts of this project in their consideration of the current
permit. The Corps should thoroughly assess whether the applicant
has taken all feasible measures to avoid or minimize both direct
and indirect impacts. The Service recommends that the Corps
consider s ecial conditions on the permit to minimize secondary
impacts. One such condition would require the applicant to
provide Aft appropriate number of community boating facilities and
place deed restrictions on individual landowners. These deed
restrictions would prohibit the construction of individual piers,
boat ramps, or docks. FlUother condition to mitigate the impacts
of the project would be a compensatory mitigation plan for
unavoidable wetland losses.
The Service has identified no endangered or threatened species,
nor critical habitats that would be adversely affected by the
proposed project. Therefore, the requirements of Section 7 of
the Endangered Species Act are fulfilled. However, obligations
under Section 7 of that Act must be reconsidered if: (1) new
information reveals impacts of this identified action that may
affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not
previously considered; (2) this action is subsequently modified
in a manner which was not considered in this review; or, (3) a
new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be
affected by the identified action.

In summary, the Service recommends that a DOA permit be issued
for the proposed project provided the Corps includes special
conditions which ensure that future wetland impacts, which are
likely to occur as a result of the permit, are fully avoided,
minimized, or replaced by compensatory mitigation. The Service
recommends that the permit be conditioned on deed restrictions
which prohibit individual landowners from constructing piers,
docks, or boat ramps. If the applicant determines that these
restrictions will necessitate additional community boating
facilities, the permit could be amended to include a maximum area
of wetlands which could be impacted.
The Service appreciates the opportunity to comment on this public
notice. Please advise us of any action taken by the Wilmington
District, Corps of Engineers on this permit application. If you
have any questions regarding our recommendations, you may contact
Howard Hall at 919-856-4520, ext.27.

Dear Mr. Dorney:
Enclosed is the application of Island Development Group, Inc. for
Department of the Army authorization and a State Water Quality Certification
to develop a 61-lot residential subdivision, involving the placement of fill
in about 0.17 acres of vegetated and non -vegetated wetlands and shading
approximately 700 square feet of water for a pier, in Norman's and Mason
Creeks, on Stump Sound, at the Cape Island subdivision, across from Villa
Capriani, in North Topsail Beach, Onslow 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, 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.
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 August 11, 1996, the District Engineer will deem that
waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to the undersigned at telephone
